Chapter 1136 Nowhere to Run
However, in a village of thirty or forty households, even a house-to-house search would not take too long, which is actually tantamount to a desperate situation for the fugitives.If Gan Qiang and his gang hadn't been physically exhausted, they would never have chosen to stop and enter the village to escape on the way to escape. Now they can only hope that all the Haihan people will become blind at some point and cannot see their existence.However, this delusion failed to come true. Just a moment after they entered the village, the Haihan army who arrived immediately surrounded several main intersections of the village, basically cutting off the possibility of the bandits continuing to escape.
Gao Qiaonan has already interrogated the bandit captives captured on the way, and confirmed that the leader of the bandit, Gan Qiang, is in the fleeing team ahead. Naturally, he will be blocked in this village, unless he can go to heaven and earth, otherwise Don't even think about having another chance to escape.
The next thing was relatively simple for the soldiers under Takahashi Minami. The soldiers chanted the slogan "surrender, don't die, disarm, don't kill", opened the way with rattan shields wrapped in cowhide, kicked the door into the house, encountered When they got to the corner, the recalcitrants shot directly. At first, some people tried to resist, but after the Haihan army shot and killed several people, more and more bandits chose to surrender. After all, running away is to save their lives. There is no way to escape, so naturally he can only choose the second-class life-saving means.
There were also some bandits who were unwilling to be caught and chose to try to break out of the village. However, the blow caused by this move was very fatal. The Haihan soldiers guarding the village were instructed to shoot and kill the fugitives, so naturally they would not show mercy.Of course, some panicked villagers also tried to escape the war in this way, but when they saw the crowds of Haihan soldiers outside the village, most of them shrank back and did not dare to rush out with their heads up. .Especially after a group of bandits rushing in front were shot down randomly, the group of people who wanted to flee from the village were frightened and started running back in a panic.
Gan Qiang was also in a dilemma at the entrance of the village in the south at this time. He specially asked a few of his men to rush out among the people to see how the Haihan army reacted. Unexpectedly, the Haihan army blocking the road just shot two shots into the air. The gun was used as a warning, and these people who had never seen it before ran back in fright, leaving a few of their men in the open space at the entrance of the village, not knowing whether to advance or retreat.
"These guys are still holding guys. They must be bad guys. Let's shoot!" The officer commanding here was also very decisive, and didn't give these bandits a chance to escape back to the village again.Of course, even if there is a misjudgment and manslaughter at this time, Gao Qiaonan will definitely not blame his subordinates. After all, arresting Gan Qiang is the top priority, and it is hard to block him here. He would rather kill him by mistake than let him escape. .
After a round of gunfire, only one of the bandits was left standing. Seeing that his companions were already lying in a pool of blood and groaning in pain, he let out a strange cry, dropped the knife in his hand, and stumbled away. Go back to the village.
Looking at the situation, Gan Qiang knew that if there was any further delay, this small village would soon be cleaned up by the Haihan army, and he would have nowhere to hide, so he immediately treated the more than 20 buddies who were still with him Encouragingly said: "If we don't escape at this time, the Haihan people will catch us and torture us until we die! They are only deployed outside the village entrance with only a dozen or twenty people. If we try our best to charge, there may not be no If you have a chance to escape, just rush out with me and return to the cottage in the south, each person will reward you with 20 taels of silver!"
Gan Qiang's instigation was somewhat effective. His subordinates were all desperadoes, and they didn't have any chances at first. Hearing that after breaking through, there would be rewards for them, so they all decided to take the risk. .It's a pity that they don't know the number of rewards offered by Haihan to Gan Qiang, otherwise, some of them may try to take Gan Qiang to claim the reward before the Haihan people can do it.
After simple preparations, a group of people rushed out of the village together, trying to attack the Haihan Army defense line at the entrance of the village as quickly as possible, but unfortunately, no matter how fast they ran, they could not run faster than the bullets. After the gunshots, only half of the more than 20 people who rushed out of the village were left.But the good news is that the Haihan soldiers on the opposite side obviously have no time to reload the ammunition again, which greatly boosts Gan Qiang's confidence. He believes that the opponent's previous record is only due to the strength of their weapons, and they may not be able to beat their own group in hand-to-hand combat.The musket in the opponent's hand becomes a fire stick after firing the bullets. It stands to reason that it should not be able to resist the attack of the sword and gun on his side. As long as he can quickly knock down the black and thin Haihan soldiers in front of him, it is not a bad idea to escape. impossible things.
But this time Gan Qiang made another serious mistake in his judgment. He saw that the soldier on the opposite side took out a one-and-a-half-foot-long sharp-edged dagger from his waist in a leisurely manner, and put it on the end of the musket. In an instant, the fire stick became a seven-foot-long dual-wielding weapon, capable of stabbing and chopping, and it seemed that it had been prepared for a long time.But at this time, there was no regret medicine for Gan Qiang and his men. Even if they found out that the other party was prepared, they could only bite the bullet and rush forward.
The bayonet has been one of the standard weapons for soldiers since the Haihan Army was formally established, and every soldier who enters the Haihan Army, regardless of whether it is a sea or an army, must practice the bayonet technique.The Haihan army's spear spear technique is derived from the army standard spear spear technique of three defenses and one stab brought by the veterans who traveled through the crowd from another era. It is a practical fighting skill that has been honed through countless actual combat. Recruits must pass the assessment of this subject before they can truly obtain the status of Haihan soldiers.The special warfare battalion, which focuses on actual combat, has always taken this as a key training content. Every soldier has a wealth of experience in fighting and fighting, and the ability of teamwork is far from comparable to the mob on the opposite side.
As soon as the two sides fought, two bandits were thrown to the ground as soon as they met each other, screaming loudly.Gan Qiang's sidearm had long been thrown away on the way to escape, and what he used now was a waist knife he had just taken from his subordinates. He knew that he would never be lucky, so he slashed at his opponent with all his strength, hoping to save his capital by cutting one down. , Cut two and earn one.
But his opponent was obviously very accurate in measuring the distance of the fight, and ignored his movements at all. He stabbed Gan Qiang's chest with a gun, and wanted to take advantage of the length of the weapon to force him to hit him.Gan Qiang's knife can at most cut his arm, but this straight stab will definitely penetrate Gan Qiang's heart.
Gan Qiang is also considered to be rich in combat experience, and when he realized that the momentum was wrong, he quickly changed his moves and blocked the opponent's straight stab with a knife.But before he could calmly launch a counterattack, the opponent's second and third stabs came back one after another, so that he could only be tired of parrying, stepping back again and again to widen the distance to block the opponent's continuous attacks.
In fact, Gan Qiang soon discovered that the opponent's offensive moves were extremely simple, basically three routines of stabbing left, stabbing right, and stabbing down. It is after a long period of intensive practice that such results can be obtained.Even if Gan Qiang can judge the target of the next attack through the opponent's eyes, he can still only defend passively, and it is difficult to use the fleeting gap in the opponent's movements to launch a counterattack.Gan Qiang only hated that he didn't have a spear in his hand at the moment, otherwise he would be able to subdue his opponent in two or three rounds at most.
Gan Qiang was still thinking about how to defeat this difficult opponent, but his subordinates were already unable to withstand the spear attack of Haihan soldiers.Originally at a disadvantage in numbers, and extremely unsuited to the opponent's fighting technique, often when they come up, there is a gap and they are shot and knocked down by the opponent.And after the gap in numbers widened, two or three Haihan soldiers could deal with one person, and it would be faster to solve the problem.But in a short time, the group of people who followed Gan Qiang and rushed out of Gujia Village were all knocked down, and only two people were injured on Haihan's side, and the battle loss ratio was astonishingly large.
The gunshots and fighting here soon attracted more Haihan soldiers. Even if Gan Qiang knocked down his opponent now, he would never be able to escape the encirclement.The opponent who was fighting with him took the initiative to retreat and left the battlefield. Gan Qiang did not dare to chase after him, because there were seven or eight other bayonets waiting for him on the opposite side. He panted heavily, looked around, Thirty or forty Haihan soldiers had already surrounded them slowly, but they still roared unwillingly: "Who is the leader of the army? Do you dare to fight against Gan Mou?"
Gao Qiaonan walked out slowly, looked at the hysterical Gan Qiang mockingly, and said, "Are you stupid? What qualifications do you have to fight me one-on-one? Hurry up and surrender, I can leave you alive for a while! If you continue to resist , then I can only order you to be executed on the spot!"
This Gan Qiang fled all the way from Cishan here, and he still refused to be captured without a fight. Gao Qiaonan knew that this person's desire to survive was still very strong, so he had to try to persuade him to surrender first.Of course, if Gan Qiang wanted to fight to the end, then Gao Qiaonan would not mind killing the bandit leader. After all, Gao Qiaonan wanted to capture him alive mainly to capture Pu Xueguang, another leader of the Wanjia Army, but this time Many people were captured, and it is not difficult to find Pu Xueguang's whereabouts from the confessions of these prisoners.
Gan Qiang didn't expect his opponent to mock him so harshly, and he trembled with anger, but he really didn't have the courage to fight the Haihan people to the death, and there was no chance of winning at the moment, so he could only choose to surrender if he wanted to survive. road.After Gan Qiang hesitated for a moment, he finally threw the waist knife in his hand to the ground bitterly.
A moment later, the Haihan army temporarily requisitioned a private house in the village as a place for Gaoqiaonan to interrogate Gan Qiang.The various companies took the time to rest and reorganize. The battle was not intense, but the physical exertion was not small. From entering the mountain early in the morning to chasing all the way to Gujia Village, most of the soldiers did not get any rest time , I didn't even have time to eat lunch, and it wasn't until then that I could finally replenish my energy.
"I need to know three things now. First, the whereabouts of Pu Xueguang. Second, all the strongholds that the Wanjia Army is still under control. Third, how many soldiers the Wanjia Army has to fight." Takahashi Nan stared Looking into Gan Qiang's eyes, he said word by word: "Don't play tricks, as long as we find out that there are inaccuracies, you will still be executed."
Gao Qiaonan knew that although he had won this battle, there might not be no bandits who escaped from the battlefield. Maybe Pu Xueguang would soon get the news of Gan Qiang's defeat. If he fled to the depths of the mountain to hide However, it would be very difficult for the Haihan Army to find him out.Gao Qiaonan hoped that before the news spread, he would lead his troops to call the door, so as not to leave him a chance to escape.
After Gan Qiang admitted his failure, he was quite refreshed. He didn't need to go to Gaoqiao Nan to torture him to extract a confession, so he recruited him all the time.After finishing speaking in one breath, he asked Gao Qiaonan for food. Seeing that he was willing to cooperate, Gao Qiaonan didn't make things difficult for him, and ordered his subordinates to bring him a bowl of rice.
Soon the news obtained from other captives also confirmed that what Gan Qiang said was basically true. Gao Qiaonan immediately ordered the assembly of troops to go to a cottage in the south to arrest Pu Xueguang.However, because a large number of bandits were captured in the previous battle, Takahashinan had to leave a platoon of troops to escort these bandits to the seaside more than 20 miles away, and then transport them back to Zhifu Island by sea boat.
According to the information confessed by Gan Qiang, the Seven Villages and Twelve Forts originally controlled by the Wan Family Army have been severely reduced after the defeat in Fushan County. So they have chosen to voluntarily give up and shrink the territory. At present, only the three forts and four villages are left with armed personnel to garrison, and this time in Cishan, they mobilized the manpower from three nearby strongholds to participate. Gan Qiang also went in with him.According to Gan Qiang's estimate, the cottage where Pu Xueguang is currently can't even assemble a hundred armed forces, and it doesn't even have a strong defense capability.
Gao Qiaonan selected two other captives who were willing to cooperate, together with Gan Qiang, and asked them to lead the way to Pu Xueguang's hiding place. On the evening of the 25th, the south of Gaoqiao arrived at Dongshanzhai, twenty miles south of Cishan.
This cottage is not located on the mountain, but at the foot of the mountain. In the past, this place was called Dongshan Village. After the Wanjia Army took control of this place, it was slowly converted into a military stronghold and renamed Dongshanzhai.However, the so-called fortifications in this place are nothing more than wooden walls and trenches. There were originally two earth cannons, but when the Wanjia army fought in Fushan County last time, Wanmeng ordered the cannons to be transferred to join the battle. Now the two cannons The cast-iron cannons had probably been reheated on Zhifu Island and turned into agricultural tools such as rakes, hoes, and sickles.
Apart from the dozens of men who were loyal to Pu Xueguang, the people stationed in Dongshanzhai were basically the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, and all the young people who could fight were lost in the battle of Fushan County.
It's a pity that the special warfare battalion didn't carry heavy weapons such as field guns in consideration of ensuring mobility this time. Otherwise, they only need to shoot a few shots at the gate of Dongshan Village, and they will naturally be able to break through. A solid line of defense.
