Chapter 434: Battle of Luzhou 3
Captain Qiu's name was Qiu Bei. He came to the south and took refuge with Liu Yingbin. When Liu Yingbin heard that he had been a squad leader in the Kenan Army before, he immediately promoted him to Captain Qiu.
The personnel, food and wages were also fully equipped. Qiu Bei believed that he had learned enough from the Kenan Army. If he led the army in the south to defeat the army in the north, he could at least be granted the title of marquis, and maybe even become a duke.
So, his thousand men were essentially trained according to the methods of the Kenan Army. Their physical fitness and training methods were identical to those of the Kenan Army. Even their firearms were identical. He believed that if he were to defend Luzhou City, he would be able to stop the Kenan Army, or even defeat it.
Unfortunately, in Liu Yingbin's eyes, his suggestion was too wasteful. Liu Yingbin did not have that much money to train so many elite soldiers.
Moreover, this time, Qiu Bei was sent down to the city to destroy the Lanxiang Legion outside the city in order to see whether the army trained in this way could fight against the Kenan Army.
Qiubei remained cautious, with nearly a thousand men quietly descending from the city walls, unnoticed by the opposing troops. The Lanxiang Legion was still busy filling the river, and they swam across under cover of darkness.
They swam to the other side, preparing to attack the Lanxiang Legion from behind.
Because Qiu Bei discovered that there was some spare space between the Lanxiang Legion and the Kenan Army camp behind it, which was enough for him to launch a surprise attack on the Lanxiang Legion.
After Qiu Bei and his companions landed, he called a few trusted aides to assign tasks.
"Sixth Brother, you lead the men to attack from the left, and I will lead the men to attack from the right. When the others see that we have succeeded, you immediately put the explosives under those machines, light them, and everyone run south immediately!" Qiu Bei said.
"General Qiu, why don't you go back to the city?" asked a confidant.
"Go back to the city? Are you stupid? Once we succeed, the Kenan Army on the opposite side will know that we will go back after succeeding, and will definitely wait for us on the way back to the city. Let's go south and find a chance to go back to the city!" Qiu Bei said.
Several of his confidants nodded, believing that General Qiu Qian was right. They then prepared to split up and act separately, intending to wipe out the Lanxiang Legion in one fell swoop.
Qiu Bei observed for a while, confirmed that the people on the other side had not noticed them, and then shouted: "Charge!"
The two teams immediately rushed towards the Lanxiang Corps, which was currently under construction. Qiu Bei thought to himself, "This time it's definitely going to work. My bright future depends on this." "Go!"
They rushed towards the Lanxiang Corps, who were working on the project, shouting and screaming. Just as they were about to reach them, their vision suddenly became as bright as day. The lights kept flashing, and they were instantly blinded. Some people could still see, but the dazzling light made them dizzy, nauseous, and tearful.
The Lanxiang Army on the opposite side all wore sunglasses, and the only thing missing was a cigarette in their mouths and a big gold chain around their necks. It would have been perfect with the dynamic BGM.
The lights that blinded the Qiubei group while they were singing are called strobe lights. For some, it's like driving at night and someone on the other side blinds you with their high beams.
It’s just that the flashing lights are a thousand times more powerful than the vehicle’s high beams, and the effect makes these southern rebels feel really bad.
Qiu Bei covered his eyes, knowing he was going to die. He felt a pain in the back of his head and fainted.
Liu Yingbin on the city wall was also observing, hoping that he could take it down in one fell swoop this time.
Unfortunately, he couldn't see how Qiu Bei moved at night. He stood on the city wall and looked out, but he was just worrying in vain.
However, when he heard the shouts of his own people as they prepared to charge, Liu Yingbin felt both nervous and excited.
He hoped that this time he could destroy those machines at once, so that the Kenan army would not be able to attack for a while. Once Shi Kefa's reinforcements arrived, he and Shi Kefa would work together to form a pincer attack from the north and south, and the Kenan army would be defeated!
The imagination is beautiful, but the reality is cruel. As soon as he heard the shouting, he saw lights flashing in the distance, and he also felt uncomfortable in the distance.
Liu Yingbin rubbed his eyes hurriedly. When his vision recovered, he looked over there again and saw that the Kenan army had begun to hack and kill his own army.
The Lanxiang Army wasn't just about work; they definitely had scouts watching the other side. They had infrared night vision goggles that Zhao Xiaokun had bought from Mongolia, so they could see exactly what the other side was doing.
The more than 1,000 people in Qiubei can be considered well-trained, but Zhao Xiaofei has been constantly updating the training and equipment of the army.
From personnel training to weapons and equipment, we can basically beat the whole world.
The ordinary soldiers carried rifled flintlock rifles, six hand grenades, a sword, and a triangular needle. They wore labor protection camouflage and labor protection shoes. They carried a military water bottle on their waists and a marching backpack on their backs. They wore security explosion-proof helmets with glass blast-proof visors. So, even if arrows were fired into their faces, they would not kill them.
First there was a burst of volleys of gunfire, and then the soldiers of the Kenan Army drew their swords and slashed at the southern rebels.
More than a thousand people from Qiu Bei were almost wiped out, and Qiu Bei was captured alive.
In Zhao Xiaofei's tent, Qiu Bei was tied up and kneeling on the ground. Two Kenan Army soldiers stood behind him. Zhao Xiaofei asked, "I heard you were a Kenan Army soldier. Why did you run away to their side? Did your subordinates withhold your food and wages? Or are they treating you badly?"
Qiu Bei trembled as he listened to the prince's questions, unable to answer several of them. Withholding food and wages? Who in the Kenan Army dared to withhold food and wages? Anyone who did would be killed by the inner guards and the Jinyiwei! Were his superiors treating him badly? Except for training, if he wasn't serious, he would be kicked in the face. If he was too stupid and couldn't learn, he would be whipped. He was usually very kind to everyone.
