Steel Dynasty - Chapter 722

[Chapter 721 Militia is hard to mess with]

When the Goryeo soldiers entered the village, Gao Shan and thirty militiamen had already changed into plate armor.

Twenty-five of them held swords and five held pulley bows.

Zhang Dafu’s warning was too late, and some old, weak, women and children in the village did not have time to evacuate.

“Dashan, it’s all my fault.” Zhang Dafu’s guilty tears welled up in his eyes.

Gao Shan glared at him fiercely, and he roared angrily: “It’s useless to talk about this now. We can only fight the Korean soldiers with the weapons we picked up.”

Black Rock Village is not big, with only 500 people, militia members The number of people is not comparable to that of other large villages. Even so, this militia team is pieced together.

Gao Shan is the oldest, and he was a veteran before, so he deserves to be the captain of the militia. The others are of different ages, the youngest is only sixteen years old.

“Uncle, I’m afraid.”

Gao Shan’s nephew is the youngest here, and the thick plate armor seems a bit heavy on his body.

Qingwu touched his nephew’s head, Gao Shan’s voice was wild and thick, and he said: “Don’t be afraid, as long as uncle is here, anyone who wants to kill you will have to step over me.”

Gao Shan’s calmness made the militiamen quiet Coming down, Zhang Dafu picked up his sword and was about to charge at the Korean soldiers, but was stopped by Gao Shan.

“How do I train you on weekdays?” Gao Shan was no longer a gentle captain at this time, but became a fierce beast on the battlefield.

After glancing at everyone, Gao Shan said, “Follow me and form a circular formation with the archers in the middle. The people in the village can only rely on us now.”

After that, Gao Shan rushed towards the Korean soldiers first.

Seeing that Gao Shan was leading the charge, the others immediately plucked up their courage and shouted, “Kill!”

More than 30 people rushed towards the more than 200 Korean soldiers.

Li Chengzai watched in surprise as thirty soldiers wearing Dayu armor rushed towards them. During this time, they had not seen militiamen dressed like this before.

When he first came to Dayu, he thought that what they were going to face was just a group of unarmed people, but now this situation obviously made him a little confused.

But he was only confused for a moment. There were more than 200 soldiers behind him. There was no need for him to be afraid of 30 people, even though they were wearing strange armor.

The distance of several hundred meters passed in the blink of an eye. The people of Heiyan Village were screaming and crying. The weakness of the Great Chongqing State had brought them too much suffering. Living in this land, they were always bullied by foreign enemies and their lives were cheap. Like grass and mustard.

“Whoosh!”

While they were escaping, Gaoshan and the Goryeo soldiers were already locked in a bitter battle.

Five archers shot out from a circular formation surrounded by the mountains and kept shooting at the Goryeo soldiers. This kind of bows and arrows are equipped with pulleys, which is extremely labor-saving. The continuous shooting made these militiamen not very tired.

Three of the Goryeo soldiers who were attacking screamed and fell. The militiamen were trained and would hunt hares with bows and arrows on weekdays, so their archery skills were not bad.

Li Cheng was immediately angry when he saw this. They asked their archers to fight back. About thirty archers immediately fired arrows at Gao Shan and others.

It’s just that the bow and arrow hit their plate armor, leaving only a flat mark.

Li Chengzai became more and more alarmed, but they soon arrived in front of these soldiers, and more than 200 people surrounded 30 people.

The shame and anger of failure made him temporarily forget about the people of Black Rock Village, and now they only saw these soldiers.

“Fuck me!” Li Chengzai yelled.

The Korean soldiers got the order and rushed towards Gao Shan and others with howls.

Facing the swarming Goryeo soldiers, Gao Shan was not timid. The life-and-death fight on the battlefield made him extremely calm. They surrounded the city back to back in a circle, with their swords pointing outward like a hedgehog.

The Korean soldiers surrounded more than thirty people and slashed at Gao Shan and others with their swords. Gao Shan and others also retaliated and skillfully used the swords in their hands to fight back.

“Dong dong…” The sound of plate armor being hacked by swords kept coming, and at the same time there were the screams of Goryeo soldiers.

The hedgehog formation formed by Gao Shan and others made it impossible for the Goryeo soldiers to take advantage of the encirclement tactics, because many Goryeo soldiers could only wait behind others. Only when the people in front fell down could they rush up and engage Gao Shan directly.

Li Cheng soon realized this problem. Now they were in a stalemate with the thirty soldiers. Seeing the sun gradually rising, he stood up anxiously. After all, this was a strange country. Sometimes it was the fear of strangeness that triggered them. Murderous wildness.

“Kill!”

Gao Shan roared, and with his roar, the militiamen stabbed the Korean soldiers with their swords. Now a dozen Korean soldiers had fallen at their feet.

Just because they suffered a loss, the Korean soldiers also learned to be smarter. They no longer took the initiative to move forward, but instead teased them and consumed their energy.

This plate armor is already heavy. If it continues to be consumed, sooner or later they will fall down from exhaustion.

“Da Shan, everyone in the village has run away.” Zhang Dakang panted, “It’s worth dying now.”

Gao Shan no longer complained about Zhang Dakang at this time. In his opinion, they were going to die together this time.

He was about to speak when suddenly there was a “rumbling” sound on the sea. The sound was like thunder. Turning his head, he saw a Great Chongqing warship appearing on the sea.

“It’s a battleship from Dengzhou.” Zhang Dakang also saw it, and he immediately cheered.

Gao Shan also showed a smile. He clenched the sword in his hand. As long as he held on for a while, they would be saved.

Compared with the excitement of Gao Shan and others, Li Cheng’s face was ashen. He shouted “Evacuate.”

If the soldiers on this battleship came ashore, they would not survive. These are regular soldiers of the Chongqing Kingdom. These soldiers have always been fierce.

There was a hint of panic in the eyes of the Korean soldiers, and they immediately ran in the direction they came from.

How could Gao Shan allow these Goryeo soldiers to escape easily at this time? He shouted: “Kill these Goryeo thieves.”

The arrival of the warships boosted the morale of the militiamen. They seemed to be infused with new strength. Zhang Dakang chased the Goryeo soldiers and killed them. stand up.

The Korean soldiers were so embarrassed that they could only run like crazy. After chasing Gao Shan and others for a while, they could no longer catch up, and then they stopped.

At this time, the warship had stopped in Hai’an, and a group of soldiers came to Black Rock Village by boat.

“Liu Lieutenant, you are late, the Korean soldiers were beaten away by us.” Liu Chen and others came ashore, Gao Shan said with a little pride.

Liu Chen glanced at Gao Shan with a smile on his lips. He knew Gao Shan because his father and Gao Shan had fought together.

He smiled and said, “It seems I should take credit for Uncle Gao from the governor. Only one militia team drove away the Koreans. This is rare in the fishing villages of Dengzhou.”

Gao Shan heard this .

Suddenly he laughed loudly and said: “I don’t need this credit, but when will we be able to eliminate the pirates of Korea and Japan?”

Liu Chen’s eyes were firm, “It’s almost time.”
