C493 Night fight

The darkness of the night gave the new army of the Ryukyu a rare chance to catch their breath, and under the cover of darkness, a large number of citizens left the city. Other than those pitiful people who were trapped in the occupied areas of the French Army, the entire city had become empty.

It was under the cover of the dark night that the new army and militia got their precious time to return to their homes. Every cove and every hidden refugee camp issued a low and deep command.

"Which unit are you from... Oh, First Battalion, Fifth Company, don't look for them anymore, your Company Commander has already sacrificed … The soldier told me your position? "

"Squad leader?" I am the vice Company Commander of 2nd Battalion's 3rd Company, from now on you will be in my unit … I will temporarily appoint you as Queue length. There is a small village on the left side of the mountain ridge in front of us, go gather all the soldiers and groups that have scattered, and gather here half an hour later … "

"Remember my name, I am Lu Ying … From this moment onwards, our company's nickname is New Third Company. Everyone is familiar with your comrades and you all, I will bring you all to collect the Arms and ammunition later … "

"You, you, you, you … You guys don't have uniforms? How did they sneak into the uniforms? And you... Damn, you're a woman! "Scram, quickly scram! A fight is not for you women …"

The same scene was repeated in the depths of the mountain in the dark night. In order to prevent the army and naval gun on the sea from being bombarded, all the construction work was done under the dim light of the oil lamps and dancing torches. The soldiers didn't even dare to light a bonfire.

Everyone was looking for their comrades and their subordinates. If they couldn't find them, they would immediately look for officers of a higher rank nearby, and the broken formation was actually being restored bit by bit. The most basic formation of the platoon was quickly being restored.

The guard supported the injured Liang Kun and removed him from the barrage of cannons. The scene that they saw along the way completely shocked the old officer of the heaven.

There had never been such an army in East Asia, and it had already been completely destroyed by the enemy. However, the soldiers at the base level did not run away, but stayed under their discipline and tenaciously searched for comrades and officers. These soldiers could actually gather together and form organized armies without the order of a high-ranking general.

Liang Kun looked at the group of sturdy young men covered in wounds. Although his rank was the highest in the entire place, a trace of fear had actually surfaced in his heart.

Everyone says that the Prime Minister's new army is strong, and I know that the new army is strong, but this level of strength really surpasses my imagination. If it was in Qing Dynasty or the Heavenly Kingdom, after a great defeat, the soldiers would either return home or become bandits to bully the common people. There had never been a person who did not disturb the common people after a great defeat.

This group of people loved the identity of soldiers so much that none of them thought of running away, and they even wanted to return to their formations to fight the enemy. This kind of terrifying spirit was what made the new army strong.

"Reporting, General, Second Battalion's New Third Company …" The new third company has been established, and three hundred people from the new third company are awaiting orders from the general! " Lu Ying was the first officer to report to Liang Kun after completing the level formation.

But this sentence made Liang Kun spit out water from his mouth, "What? Lu Ying, I remember you. Weren't you brought out by Luo Huo as well? "Sure, but in such a short period of time, you brought out a enhancements of 300 people?"

"Brat, if you want to be promoted, just say so!" Liang Kun scolded him, but the praise in his eyes could not deceive him, he was born to be a soldier.

"Good boy, I, Liang Kun, do not have too much power. However, we are in the midst of a war, so it can be said that I am not eligible to receive orders from the outer army … "I order you to be the commander of the new 1st Battalion. Of course it's temporary, the time limit will be reached before the prime minister returns …"

"Yes!" "General …" Lu Ying immediately stood at attention and saluted, he had completely overstepped his boundaries, the three hundred men under his command finally had an official status.

"Lu Ying, I just broke out of the encirclement, and now, other than the head cannon can still hold on, the rest of the cannons can't hold on any longer, how about your side? Do you have any ideas? "

There were no courteous words on the battlefield, Lu Ying could be considered an old veteran of Xiao Letian's. In a sense, Lu Ying's identity was not below Liang Kun's, he unceremoniously received a bowl of mountain spring water and drank it all up.

"General, I only have three suggestions, and I need you to decide..." First, our new army's formation has just been restored and it's a bit chaotic. The soldiers and officers aren't familiar with each other, so we have to make a visual distinction … That's right, it's the military strategy that the Prime Minister mentioned! "

"General, behind us is a warehouse left behind by a cloth village. Inside, there is a large amount of red cloth, I suggest that you divide the red cloth." General, behind us is a warehouse left behind a piece of cloth, that contains a large amount of red cloth, I suggest that you divide the red cloth.

"The chaotic battlefield, especially the night battles, has eye-catching markings. Soldiers won't become chaotic, and orders can be passed down effectively …"

Liang Kun understood immediately: "Alright, your suggestion is good! Wasn't this the military strategy that the Prime Minister had wanted to use in the past? Let's just do it... Is there any other good way? "

"Yes, of course …" It's night now, and it's very advantageous for us. I suggest that the troops break down into zero, with five or six people as a team, infiltrating the enemy, throwing grenades, killing a few, even if a few of them don't die, we can at least let them rest well … "

"I've done it, this is also a good method. Up until now, which family didn't have any relatives to die in the enemy's hands?" There are as many as the Death Soldiers want... Go on! "

"One more to the Guotou Village. General, have you forgotten? Where is Guotou Village? We still have a formation unit of close to 2000 people, it's in the hands of Chu Zhao and Luo Houzi. "They've helped us restrain more than a thousand French soldiers. We can't forget about them …"

"Yeah, of course I know them, but we really can't help them right now. We don't have any supplies for the troops, so I'm at my wit's end …" Liang Kun said regretfully.

"No, there is a way!" A general can appoint an official in times of war! My two blades can even make a Battalion Commander, and Chu Zhao and the rest have been in battle for many days, not to mention that they have two thousand soldiers that they have trained with. Why can't he be a Company Leader? The general immediately bestowed the title to the officials. Maybe Chu Zhao and Luo Houzi might not care about it, but the morale of their subordinates has been boosted … "

"Ouch!" So it was the excited Liang Kun who slapped her injured leg, "Your brain is sharp enough, as expected of the old prime minister, let's follow your instructions …"

As a veteran of the Heavenly Kingdom whom Xiao Letian had recruited, his abilities were actually at the level of a great general. However, he had one of the biggest advantages of being admonished by others, and was extremely good at listening to other people's opinions. Furthermore, his concept of right and wrong was very strong, and would automatically admit it if he was wrong.

In the darkness of the night, General Liang Kun was hiding in the mountains and had finally regained control of the city. Troops after groups of troops moved under his command, gradually forming an encirclement around the Hegemonical Market. Groups of Death Soldiers started to infiltrate into the city, and the cruel night street battle was about to begin.

In the darkness, not only were there Death Soldiers stealthily entering the city, there were also countless heralds running around frantically. These Indigenous soldiers s who were familiar with the terrain walked through the mountain ridges as if they were walking on flat ground.

The military boot s had been torn to shreds … … Then there were the mountain folk's straw sandals … … and their big feet that had been crushed … … Even though the soles of their feet were covered in blood, they still had a tenacious will and the flame of vengeance in their hearts.

Panting, the messenger could see the glow of light on the northern defense line. He could even see the torchlight and the countless soldiers waving their shovels. The northern defense line was still there, but the northern defense line was still slowly growing.

The soldier knelt on the ground, put his head near the spring and took two big gulps of the spring water. The cold spring water had given him the motivation to move forward. Then he flung off his bloodied foot and lunged forward.

"Pass Liang Kun's general order... All the soldiers and people's groups in the northern defense line levelled up to new mass, with Chu Zhao as the leader and Luo Houzi as the vice leader … "Brothers, don't shoot, I'm the general's messenger …"

Under the flickering torchlight, the exhausted soldier fell to the ground. Countless soldiers helped him into the trench, and within ten minutes, the entire northern defense line was filled with cheers.

"Long live... Long live new mass... "This daddy isn't a militia anymore. This time, I can be considered a new soldier …"

"I am Chu Zhao, the Guild Leader. Pass my order, the entire team will select the death squads and prepare for the night assault! "We definitely can't let these bastards have a good night's sleep …"

Just as everyone was frantically preparing for battle, the street fighting in the Hegemonical Market District had already begun.

"Brothers, let's take revenge!" "Blast these foreign devils to death …" The Death Soldiers, who were lurking in the darkness, pulled their grenades and threw them towards the defense of the French Army. Some of the soldiers even charged forward with explosives tied around their waists.

The tranquility of the entire city was immediately shattered. Regardless of whether it was the north, south, east, or west, as long as it was a French defensive base or a house, it had all become a battlefield. The sound of explosions and gunshots resonated throughout the area, shocking Shouli City and the warships on the sea so much that they were on high alert.

"Shoot them, kill these madmen …" "These barbarians are all lunatics, all lunatics …" The French were finally terrified of these fearless Death Soldiers. This was the first time they had ever been afraid of them.

However, there was another group of hidden experts in the darkness. After the initial panic of the countless French army, they strangely discovered that this group of Asian was not united. There was actually someone helping them in the darkness.

"Be careful..." "There's a sneak attack, there's a death soldier …" The Frenchman didn't understand, but the firework that followed the shouts illuminated everything. This was how groups of ambushers were exposed in the dark streets.

"God bless France! The Chinese are at loggerheads... "Long live!"
