Chapter 173 The uprising went wrong

The guard of Linghuzui ammunition depot Zhengmu was Fan Chuanguo, the younger brother of Fan Chuanjia. With his assistance, the new army successfully captured the ammunition depot and obtained countless ammunition. The morale was greatly boosted. After he broke through the fort, Xiong Chengji defended the depot with the second standard and third battalion, and sent revolutionaries to contact the Navy battalion, and the main force attacked the North Gate again.

Students from the Surveying and Mapping Academy outside the north city gate raised troops to respond, attacking inside and outside. The rebel army captured the infantry camp of the Surveying and Mapping Academy in one fell swoop. At this point, the Qing army outside the city had been cleared, and the rebel army quickly grew to more than 2,000 people.

After sorting out the team a little, clearing the command and sequence, Xiong Chengji rushed to Anqing City overnight without any fatigue. But when they arrived at Anqing City with great momentum, Yu Dahong and several other Qing court minions were already waiting on the city wall with the consolidated patrol battalion officers and soldiers!

When the enemy met, they were very jealous. They cursed on the city and said nothing in the end. They all picked up their guns and shot each other with a "bang bang bang". People from both sides were stunned and people fell down from time to time. Blood suddenly spread all over the blue bricks on the city walls and the yellowed hard mud outside the city. The sad alas of the wounded were submerged in the continuous gunfire and choking smoke.

The noise in the city was shaking the sky, and there were endless guns shouting and killing on the city wall. A group of people were waiting anxiously in a dilapidated yard not far from the city wall. It was the armed forces of the New Restoration Association brought by Wang Jin.

Soon, Wang Shannan, who failed to raid the governor's yamen, rushed over and told the situation with a depressed face, and guessed that the governor Zhu Jiabao might not have died yet. After hearing this news, the comrades around him couldn't help but look depressed. He didn't even make such a violent explosion. What should I do if I change my next action?

"Damn, this guy is so lucky. He didn't even kill him!"

Wang Jin cursed softly, ignoring the frustration of others, and hurriedly pulled Wang Shannan to ask about the situation he saw along the way. After learning that An Qingcheng was still in chaos, most of the officers and soldiers of the patrol battalions were transferred to the city wall to guard against the revolutionary new army outside the city. The order inside the city was maintained by the patrol battalion, he nodded relaxedly and had a better plan in his heart.

He turned around and scolded his depressed subordinates fiercely. After a few generous words, he aroused their morale. Then he explained some precautions to Wang Shannan. He brought about twenty or so skillful gun skills to the ground and quietly opened the courtyard gate to the new army's baggage camp.

The sound of gunfire outside the city was shocked by the sound of gunfire. Zhu Jiabao was so restless that he could not calm down. He kept sending his personal soldiers to inquire about the news, and kept gathering the situation in the city, and the uneasiness in his heart became stronger and stronger.

Although the new army is not a mutiny in the entire battalion, the combat effectiveness of thousands of trained soldiers cannot be underestimated. Anyone who is a patrol battalion is a man who is in the officialdom understands that he is afraid that the soldiers guarding the city walls will not be able to resist the crazy attack of Panjun and take the initiative to "strategic transformation". It is too late to cry!

At this time, he no longer cared about the pain in his heart. In order to encourage the patrol battalion to "strengthly" kill the enemy, he gritted his teeth and took out 50,000 yuan from the governor's yamen to reward the frontline soldiers. Anyway, the governor had died, and everything was wrong and he pushed it to the dead ghost. His eyelids kept shaking, so he comforted himself.

Sure enough, wealth is touching, and there must be a brave man under heavy rewards. The 50,000-dollar ocean was smashed out, and the eyes of the poor men of the patrol battalion were immediately lost. The effect immediately came out. The officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion who resisted the rebels on the city wall fought bravely and fearlessly, and they all wanted to win the greatest reward in the end!

At such a critical moment, I really don’t believe that any officer dares to make these oceans. Are you really not afraid of death?

The next scene made the revolutionaries who were very anxious to siege the city and almost fell off their chins...

The new army, who was very anxious to attack the city outside the city, clearly heard the noise and riots in the city. A spirit of each person was excited and fearless, rushed towards the red city wall reflected by the flames, wave after wave, as if the waves of the sea rushed towards the sea wall on the shore, with a majestic momentum, and they vowed to smash all obstacles into pieces!

Xiong Chengji was anxious and unable to stand up to supervise the enemy in person, knowing that he was giving the Qing army Yaliyue outside the city the more space the comrades in the city were more abundant. However, the officers and soldiers of the patrol battalions on the city tower suddenly became fearless. What was even more annoying was that the two suddenly stretched out flames swept down a large area of ​​the revolutionary new army. The momentum of the new army was rushing forward suddenly, and they all fell to the ground and scattered and fought back, suppressing so much that they could hardly lift them up.

"Damn it, it's a machine gun!"

"Bang it with a cannon!" Xiong Chengji hurriedly ordered. Then dozens of shells roared through the sky and landed heavily on the top of the city. The muffled sound of "bang" was still harsh in the noise, but it did not explode in the expectant gaze of the revolutionary new army outside the city, and the fragments of glasses shattered all over the ground!

"What's going on?" Xiong Chengji was furious and hurriedly retracted his astonishment: "What is Zhao Xuanbo doing? He has always been sarcastic and has a high level of artillery? Why are you mute now? Bring him to me!"

After a while, Zhao Xuanbo, the artillery camp's head, ran over with a dirt face, and smiled bitterly: "Commander-in-chief, Zhao Xuanbo reported."

"How did you shoot your cannon?" Xiong Chengji waved his hand and asked with a dark face. The bad taste in his tone was very strong. Yes, it was already at this moment. You either die or I live. How could you allow such a mistake? Isn't you kidding the lives of your comrades? If you didn't know that Zhao Xuanbo's background is absolutely fine, he really suspected that this guy was a spy spy from the government!

Zhao Xuanbo was frightened and full of distress, and hurriedly complained: "It's not that we are incompetent in command, but the shells are really not good. We can't do anything about it." The old-style army habits still inevitably infected the new army officers and soldiers, just like Xuanbo. The first thing that comes to mind when there is a problem is not how to solve it, but hurriedly shirk responsibility.

"I don't care. You must solve this matter!" Xiong Chengji was so angry that his face turned black. He walked back and forth for a few steps, waved his arms and roared angrily: "What the hell is going on? Why didn't you say it earlier?" He was so disappointed with Zhao Xuanbo. When is it? Do you still have the courage to joke about the lives of your comrades?
