Chapter 51 The Thick Red Line

“go ahead”

Owen stood on the far left side of the queue, commanding the knife forward, and the British soldiers holding their spears beside him strode forward again.

In the cracks in the team, the thick mortar shells banged, and the fine iron bullets and pebbles poured down on the positions of the Yun clan soldiers like a torrential rain, making them almost unable to raise their heads.

Owen ordered a quick step forward.

It is a pity that their pace was once again slowed down by the tiger crouching guns in Yunzhen, and the shells exploded among the red crowd. Even if the British army wanted to keep a tidy queue, they were hit by debris from the explosion and shock waves. .

Lao Zhou once again ordered a retreat, and they had keenly discovered the British army’s eagerness to approach them and launch a hand-to-hand battle.

When I was at the Phoenix Mountain Military Academy, the instructors had long said that if they could effectively kill the enemy, they could take the initiative to give up some positions.

This bombardment was the greatest help Yunzhen could give in a short period of time, because the barrel had become red and wasted. If you want to launch another fierce bombardment, you must replace the barrel, which takes time.

The British army is approaching at every step. They are not afraid of death, not afraid of being blown up by artillery shells, and not afraid of the enemies who are constantly retreating. In their view, if they pursue a while, the enemy will be defeated.

They have seen many such scenes.

However, they didn’t realize that as the front moved forward, the enemies they were facing became more and more, the bullets became denser, and the number of partners around them was declining.

A clear red line appeared in Baron Nelson’s telescope… This red line was made up of the bodies of British soldiers who died in battle, and stretched from the beach to the land.

Colonel Owen has not ordered a chase, which shows that the opponent’s resistance is still very tenacious, and further oppression is needed!

“Our gunshots are getting sparser. When our gunshots stop completely, you will bring all our gold ashore. Go to Owen and redeem them with their bodies.”

Baron Nelson put down his scopes, whispered to his clerk, and left the front deck.

Owen struggled to throw a grenade. The grenade traversed an arc in the air, and finally landed on the Ming army’s position. The lead on the grenade was still burning, and it was immediately picked up by a Ming army and threw it out.

The grenade finally exploded in front of the position, sending up a dark red flame.

At the same time, the Ming army also threw a lot of grenades over. Perhaps it was because the Ming army was too scared. The leads of the grenades were not ignited. Some curious British soldiers picked up the grenades and wanted to reuse them. Their hands exploded.

“Free assault!”

Owen shouted, picked up a bayonet-mounted musket from the ground, and ran forward first.

Immediately, his adjutant dropped the broken bagpipe and charged forward with his commander. Soon, more people joined the charging team.

“Free shooting! Hand-to-hand fight after three rounds!”

After Lao Zhou uttered a shout, he put his rifle into his shoulder socket and fired, reloaded, fired, reloaded, and fired again, and then he took the bayonet-mounted rifle and jumped out of the trenches and rushed towards the oncoming British army. Past.

Lao Zhou’s behavior drove the rest of the Yun clan soldiers. After the shooting was completed, they also followed Lao Zhou with their bayonets to greet the British army. For a time, the shouts shook the four fields.

Standing in the command position, the moiré felt the blood in his body boil all at once, dropped the binoculars in his hand, and had to leave the command position with the rifle to fight the enemy.

He always hugged Moire’s waist desperately and said, “Master, you are the leader of an army, and you cannot go to the front line to fight directly.”

Moire’s nose spit out hot lungs, and howled: “I don’t care…”

Always begged: “No.”

Moiré shouted: “The whole army strikes!”

Hearing that Moiré had issued a formal military order, Chang had to let go of Moiré, and rushed out of the command post with a rifle in his hand, shouting loudly: “The whole army will attack, the whole army will attack!”

Immediately, the call for the whole army to attack spread throughout the entire position. The grooms, cooks, clerks, and medical soldiers left the positions and rushed towards the strangled front line. Even the artillerymen such as Yunzhen, who were replacing their gun barrels, abandoned them. After leaving the artillery position, he gathered any weapons he could find to the front line.

Colonel Owen stabbed a Yun clan soldier in the chest, took a step back and drew the spear, backhand smashed the other Yun clan soldier’s face with the butt, and then used the spear to pick up one of the stabs, and then used the barrel of the gun. It got stuck on the neck of a Yun clan soldier, pushed him out, then turned around and stabbed a bayonet into the waist of a Yun clan soldier who was besieging the adjutant, and turned the spear to draw back the blood-stained spear. .

Take advantage of the situation and stand back to back with the adjutant.

“Al, fire a flare and tell Baron Nelson that we need a intensive artillery coverage here.”

Al drew a flare from his waist. Just as he was about to ignite, a blood-red gun pierced his arm holding tinder, and the tinder fell to the ground. Before Al leaned over, the gun pierced it. He touched his temples and penetrated his entire head, making Adjutant Al’s movements frozen in his dying movement.

“Al!” Owen yelled, and when he looked back, he saw a hideous face.

“kill!”

After Old Zhou stabbed Al to death, he quickly stabbed Owen. Owen dodges to avoid him, but he does not prevent a Yun clan soldier behind him from stabbing with a bayonet again. He dodges once again to avoid, leaning against the half thick. Deadwood stands still.

At this time, the British army, with only less than 300 men left, was finally overwhelmed by the superior strength of the Yun clan soldiers.

Irving did not show any sadness on his face, but strictly followed the infantry code to land his musket butt, holding the barrel in his hand, keeping his feet apart and shoulders, and staring at the old Zhou in front of him: “Up Right!”

Lao Zhou took a look at the teeth that had been knocked out. Several interpreters who were vomiting blood said: “Tell him, because he is a good man, Lao Tzu allows him to surrender.”

The translator vomited another mouthful of blood. When he was about to speak, he heard Owen say to Lao Zhou in awkward Ming language: “My subordinates have all been sacrificed honorably, now it’s my turn.

Are you the commander of this battle? “

Lao Zhou shook his head and said, “I am not, I am the commander’s entourage. Our commander is Colonel Moire, a young man.”

Owen saw the moiré that was obviously an officer, and spit on the ground disdainfully, “Is he a noble?”

Lao Zhou nodded and said, “Yes, he is the royal family!”

Owen grinned and said: “The Yun family? Veterans, you have to be careful of the nobles. They are the most despicable group of people in the world, and the royal family is the one who cannot be trusted in this group of people.”

Lao Zhou shook his head and said: “You don’t have to delay. I saw you let a few people leave when you launched the charge. I should have stopped them. It’s a pity that your attack was too violent. You successfully let them escape. gone back.

Since you want to be honorable, then I will give you honor, and you will kill yourself! “

Owen laughed and said: “People who commit suicide can’t go to heaven, so I can only die honorably. Since you don’t want to attack, then I will attack.”

After that, he threw away his great cloak, screamed with guns in both hands, and rushed towards Yun Wen…

After these days of war, Moiré has learned to be calm. Seeing Owen pounced on him, he did not move. He believed that his subordinates would easily kill Owen.

Owen died in battle, even though his body was filled with bayonets, he was finally picked up by the bayonet, thrown into the air, and then fell heavily on the ground. He still stubbornly raised his head and looked at the cloud pattern and said: “I am immortal, I will come back. of.”

Yun Wen looked at Owen who was already dead and said: “When you come again, I will kill you with my own hands, no matter how many times you can survive, until you dare not resurrect!”

After Mo Yun finished speaking, Lao Zhou looked at Mo Yun and said, “Master, you must guard against shelling when your troops are gathered. Don’t you know, Master?”

Yun Wen said: “I know.”

Old Zhou said: “I will report this matter to the master to know.”

Moiré laughed and said: “It’s just a beating for whatever you want~www.wuxiax.com~, in short, I’ll be happy.”

Lao Zhou stopped talking, but turned his gaze on the excited Yun Zhen’s face. Yun Zhen bowed his head and quickly slipped away from the crowd. He knew that the war was not over yet. He, the artillery commander, left the artillery position. Cut by law!

However, he was still not afraid, and the moir that shouted “The whole army attacked” was the one who should be beheaded the most.

Under the command of Lao Zhou, the ministries still returned to their positions, leaving only some black people responsible for collecting the spoils.

The battlefield was completely quiet.

Baron Nelson turned his back to the battlefield and said nothing for a long time.

In front of him stood three embarrassed British troops. On the table in front of him were two damaged Da Ming China Type II firearms and an unexploded tiger squat cannon shell.

“Baron, Colonel Owen said that he has kept the flag of our Fairfax Ninth Infantry Regiment, and also the reserve officer of me. He hopes that the Fairfax Ninth Infantry Regiment will not die.

At the same time, he left his command knife to the Ming Dynasty officer who defeated him. He hopes that we can get his command knife back in the future. “

Nelson coughed: “Young man, your enemy is very powerful, extremely powerful. As far as I know, this army is not the most elite army in Ming, or even a newly formed army.

Are you confident in taking back Owen’s command knife? “

The young alternate said: “I already know how to fight the Ming army, so we can fulfill Colonel Owen’s last wish.”

Nelson waved his hand: “Then go back to London with the merchant ship, tell Cromwell the news of Colonel Owen’s death in battle, and tell him that the British Empire has encountered an unprecedented powerful enemy in India.”
