Jinzhou, Zhangjiawopeng.
At the village entrance, the militia members of Zhangjiawopeng, armed with rudimentary weapons, stared menacingly at the Liaodong garrison soldiers in the distant open field.
Looking at this scene, Liu Peng, the captain of the Liaodong garrison, stretched his neck and smiled slightly, saying, "These people dare to resist us?"
Tell the boys that anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!
"Get them!"
At a command, nearly a thousand soldiers from the Liaodong garrison rushed toward Zhangjiawopeng.
The militia at the village entrance were trembling with fear.
Despite having trained for over a month, these militia members were mostly civilians who had never been on the battlefield. How could they possibly stop the menacing soldiers of the Liaodong garrison?
Some militia members, even trembling, began to retreat to their homes.
The village entrance is now empty.
Liu Peng, a captain of the Liaodong garrison, swaggered into the village, glancing disdainfully at the fleeing militia members.
Then, Liu Peng shouted in a deep voice: "Every household, hand over your grain, and I will spare your lives!"
Anyone who dares to resist, kill them all.
As they spoke, soldiers from the Liaodong garrison stormed into the homes of the people and began looting their food.
Before some civilians could stop them, all the grain was seized by the Liaodong garrison soldiers.
"Don't steal my food! Don't steal my food!"
An old man clutched a sack tightly, crying out, "This is all the food my family has left! I still have my grandson to feed..."
"You old bastard, get out of here!"
A soldier from the Liaodong garrison kicked the old man and dragged the sack outside.
However, the old man struggled for a moment, then lunged forward again, tightly hugging the sack.
"roll!"
The Liaodong garrison soldier was enraged. He drew his broadsword and swung it down, yelling, "Die!"
Blood splattered everywhere.
The elderly man died on the spot.
The grandchildren behind him were terrified by the scene and burst into tears.
Seeing this scene, the villagers were filled with rage.
However, the killings continued within the village.
Some civilians tried to stop the Liaodong garrison soldiers from seizing grain, but they were all brutally massacred.
Blood splattered everywhere, and corpses littered the field.
For a time, cries and wails filled the village.
Inside the house, the militia members clenched their fists, their eyes red.
Who are we?
We are members of the militia!
Our responsibility is to protect the village from being bullied!
And now, our village is being bullied, and we are doing nothing!
Are we still human?
A proud militia member, his eyes bloodshot and almost spitting fire, gripped his weapon tightly, took a few steps forward, rushed to a Liaodong garrison soldier, and slashed down with his sword, shouting angrily, "Release my family's grain!"
The soldier was stabbed and staggered to the ground.
Other soldiers from the Liaodong garrison nearby saw this and rushed over to surround the militia member.
"Oh, you dare to resist?"
A soldier from the Liaodong garrison sneered and said, "Kill him!"
Immediately, several soldiers from the Liaodong garrison surrounded them, brandishing their weapons at the militia members.
One punch can't beat four hands!
Moreover, no matter how strong this militia member was, how could he be a match for a seasoned soldier?
Not long after, the militia member was found dead on the ground.
Even in death, his eyes remained wide open in anger, unable to close in peace!
Upon witnessing this scene, the militia members hiding in the house had red eyes, clenched their fists, and couldn't hold back their tears.
A militia member clenched his fist and pounded his chest.
"Why am I so cowardly?"
How could I be so incompetent?
Am I even human?
Tears streamed down her face.
Before long, most of the grain in the village had been looted, and the Liaodong garrison soldiers, carrying the grain, marched arrogantly out of the village.
Before leaving, Liu Peng, the captain of the Liaodong garrison, smugly mocked, "Hehe!"
I thought the militia was something special.
They were all cowards!
Ha ha ha ha……"
The laughter gradually faded away, while the militia members hiding inside the house felt their anger burn even more intensely.
They gripped their broadswords tightly, wishing they could rush out and kill these beasts to avenge their families and villagers!
However, they were afraid.
They were timid.
They remained unmoved.
Just then, a series of crisp gunshots rang out from outside the village.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Liaodong garrison soldiers, who had just left the village, did not expect that a Shenwei Army would be coming from afar.
In a moment of carelessness, dozens of soldiers were hit by bullets and fell to the ground dead on the spot.
"It's numb!"
The battalion commander of the Fourth Battalion of the Divine Might Army looked at this scene and said coldly, "How dare they bully the common people? Are they even human?"
Brothers, charge!
Kill all these beasts!
The soldiers of the Fourth Battalion of the Divine Might Army in the rear were already furious and charged forward with their Dongning-made flintlock muskets.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A dense hail of bullets came raining down.
Before the smug Liaodong garrison soldiers could react, they were hit by bullets and died on the spot.
In the distance, soldiers from the Fourth Battalion of the Divine Might Army rushed forward and threw thunderbolts at them.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
