Chapter 192 Death in Crow Valley
As the sky was getting brighter, it was already the early morning of the next day, and the militia soldiers who had returned with a full load returned to the camp, all of them were smiling.
Seeing Ren Jiu who was waiting in the camp, Li Lianchang quickly ran over, took advantage of the situation and gave Ren Jiu a few banknotes, and asked:
"Master Jiu, what should we do next?"
Ren Jiu received the banknotes, showing the appearance of 'you are still sensible', and then said: "Master has an order, let everyone go to the Crow Valley near Qipan Mountain to gather immediately."
"The master intends to gather the brothers from the militia from all over the place and go to the county town to continue hunting for the fish that slipped through the net of the Liang family."
"By the way, take over the properties of the Liang family and the Zhang family in the county."
"In the evening, the master is going to hold a banquet in the county seat, and reward the brothers well!"
Company Commander Li didn't have any doubts, and immediately said: "Okay, I'll take my brothers and set off now!"
Soon, under the leadership of Company Commander Li, the soldiers of the militia marched towards Qipanshan.
Not only them, the militia soldiers from several other places also set off to gather at Crow Valley near Qipan Mountain.
These militia soldiers who had just robbed a lot of good things were naturally very happy when they learned that they were going to the county seat. They had money in their pockets, so they had no choice but to find a place to spend their time.
What's more, I went to help the master take over the property of those gentry families, and if I didn't keep it, I could take the opportunity to make a small fortune.
Therefore, everyone's face is filled with happy expressions.
Near noon, militia garrisons from various places gathered together. In addition to the more than 500 people stationed in the county town, there were more than 2000 people gathered in the somewhat narrow Crow Valley.
A group of people gathered together, which immediately made the Crow Valley extremely lively.
Several military officers who survived by chance gathered together, and all of them showed a look of survival after a catastrophe in their eyes.
"Fortunately, I just happened to have a fever, so I didn't go to Zhang's house to drink, otherwise I would have my head chopped off like Battalion Commander Sun!" Company Commander Li said happily.
"No, it seems that in the future, it is better to take part in less banquets."
"That's right, if you don't keep it all together, you will lose your life."
At this time, an officer asked: "Hey, I said, let's gather at Qipanshan. Everyone is here, why don't you start?"
"That's right, Li Zi, didn't you come with Master Jiu? Ask Master Jiu!"
"I wanted to ask, but I can't find Master Jiu." Company Commander Li asked doubtfully.
"Hey, the man who brought me here is gone."
"Me too!"
"what's up?"
"Is there something urgent to do?"
Everyone showed doubts. At this time, they did not expect that Ren Jiu and the others had already left in the chaos, leaving them all in the encirclement of Qipanshan.
Just when everyone was going to look around for Ren Jiu and the others, and wanted to ask what to do next, a sudden sharp whistling sound sounded in mid-air.
"call out!"
"boom!"
In an instant, a ball of fire burst out of the dense crowd, and the huge shock wave and flying shrapnel instantly took away the lives of many people!
Before they could react, there were several sharp whistling sounds one after another.
Accompanied by explosions one after another, amidst bursts of wailing, countless broken arms and stumps flew up and down, and nearly a hundred militia soldiers died here in a daze.
At this time, in an open space in Qipanshan, the five mortars of the artillery platoon were under the command of the artillery platoon leader, and the gunners loaded and fired deftly.
"Tom tom tom..."
Accompanied by the crisp sound of the shells being ejected, the second wave of shelling blasted towards the militia soldiers in the ambush circle!
"Boom boom boom..."
The violent shelling stunned the militia soldiers. They didn't know where the shells came from, let alone who fired them.
When they turned around with their heads covered, these people subconsciously fled towards the entrance and exit of Crow Valley, trying to leave this dangerous area.
Company Commander Li and several officers responded fairly quickly. These people were more or less knowledgeable. They hid behind a big rock and roughly deduced the location of the shell from the direction of the sound.
"Who is attacking us!"
"I do not know!"
"Is it from the Liang family?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"The other party has guns, and our militia doesn't take advantage of this, let alone the Liang family!"
"I said, do you want to organize the brothers and destroy the opponent's cannon?"
"Come on, if the other party dares to fire, it means that they still have an ambush. Let's escape first!"
"Yes, escape first!"
Having made up their mind, Company Commander Li and other officers took advantage of the interval of shelling and fled quickly.
But just as they were about to rush to the entrance of Crow Valley, the grass on the hillsides on both sides swayed for a while, and then a pile of weeds and twigs was forcefully lifted away, revealing a brand new water-cooled Mark Qin heavy machine gun!
Li Lianchang and the others gasped when they saw this scene, and their eyes were wider than eggs.
"It's over!"
"Da da da···"
As this idea came to mind, the Maxim heavy machine gun sprayed a ball of fire snakes, and countless thick bullets directly penetrated the bodies of Li Lianchang and others, and the huge lethality completely tore their bodies into pieces!
Seeing that the entrance of Crow Valley was guarded by heavy machine guns, the militia soldiers who were frightened by the shelling fled towards the exit again, even though they knew in their hearts that the unknown group of attackers would definitely set up an ambush there.
But when people are desperate, they will always do some futile behaviors subconsciously, hoping that they can get away with it.
However, when the black muzzle of the heavy machine gun appeared at the exit, these soldiers knew that they had chosen the wrong escape route again.
In desperation, these people looked to the hillsides on both sides, maybe there would be a way out.
However, before they took a few steps on the hillside, the soldiers of the Independence Regiment under Lin Hongfei raised the Hanyang made bullets in their hands and fired bullets at the militia, among which were mixed with powerful grenades one after another.
The militia soldiers were poorly trained and weak in combat, so they couldn't fight against the wind.
In addition, the equipment was much worse. Except for one-third of the soldiers with guns, the rest of them were armed with cold weapons such as swords, pikes, and darts.
Therefore, in the face of attacks from the Independence Regiment, any actions made by these people would be futile.
After an unknown period of time, the Crow Valley became quiet, and the smell of blood and gunpowder smoke mixed together, filling the air. In the small valley, there were complete, mutilated, and fragmented corpses scattered everywhere.
The soldiers of the Independence Regiment came out of the bunker, put sharp bayonets on the muzzles of their guns, and then started to clean up the battlefield in groups of three. Once they found those intact corpses, they directly used bayonets to make up the knife to avoid leaving alive.
The Three Thousand Liang Family Militia Group that had been rampant in Jiangdu County for many years completely disappeared at this moment.
And Lin Hongfei's independent regiment became the only armed force in Jiangdu County!
