"Bastard! Who fired!" Zhu Si was furious and gave the firearm hand closest to him a big mouth and scolded, "Stop shooting!"

Seizing the shooting timing is the focus of the military training of the Fubo Army. Although the reloading speed of the Minni rifle is the fastest in this time and space, after all, a skilled soldier can only reach a rate of 3 to 4 rounds per minute. You must fully grasp the timing of the first round of volleys to obtain the best killing effect. During the battles in Liaodong in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Ming army had superior firearms, but often could not effectively kill the Qing army. In addition to the generally poor quality of the firearms, one of the reasons is that the shooting timing is not well controlled.

Now that the fire is done, all the heavy convex guns loaded on the ship are used up. If the enemy launches a wading assault, this is a firepower gap.

Under the yelling of the soldiers, the messy shooting stopped. Zhu Si did not dare to go to the observation deck and looked out the observation hole behind the iron plate. However, the hilly areas on the shore were dense and the enemy was not visible at all. However, from the swaying of the grass and branches, it was roughly obvious that the enemy was moving.

"The rifleman shoots freely at the suspicious target." Zhu Si ordered, "All firearms are reloaded!"

The command was given: the riflemen were shooting one after another, and the heavy convex gun was pulled back from the shooting hole to load. The ship was suddenly in chaos.

"Pay attention to gunpowder safety!" Zhu Si was secretly shocked when he saw the loading of the firearm hand.

Suddenly, a thick smoke ejected from the command boat No. 2 behind the hall, and the sound of cannons rumbled.

"Which bastard fires?!" Zhu Si was furious and could not see any shots!

The 12-pound mountain grenade is the most powerful weapon on the ship and must not be used in critical moments - this is what he told the gunner before he set out: "I must order it myself to shoot."

A burst of cheers came from the command boat No. 2, as if they had hit something.

Sure enough, with this shelling, the attack among the plants stopped. Then the signal soldier reported: "Lieutenant Lie, the No. 2 boat, asked for instructions and asked to log in and search."

"Search for nothing!" Zhu Si cursed. In his opinion, it was enough to complete the patrol mission safely. He rashly logged in to search. If he was ambushed by the enemy and killed several people, he would be very unfavorable.

"Order: No one is allowed to log in and drive to Fengchuan County at full speed!"

The fleet increased its horsepower and soon drove out of Jieshoutan. At this time, they encountered two large-haired boats led by Mi Longtao.

Mi Longtao's ship was on the rise and was very slow. Seeing that the escort fleet had already left Jieshoutan, they knew that they had not encountered any major danger. Through the flag signal, they knew that the fleet was ambushed on the northern channel, but no casualties were found.

"Damn it, again!" Mi Longtao cursed - such an attack has happened many times this month. Although it did not cause any major losses, this constant harassment made them so unbearable to the soldiers who were responsible for local garrisons. In particular, the command center also asked them to ensure the safety of Yanjiang Village and Town, which made their garrison tasks even more arduous.

Mi Longtao asked the downward fleet to sign in at the location where the attack occurred and searched.

The search team soon found abandoned empty wooden barrels among the trees and trees on the shore - a fresh object for Mi Longtao. He had never found this thing in the clearing before. Then, three corpses and a broken "flying swarm" were found in a place that was obviously covered by shotguns. Two of them were beaten into human form by shotguns, and one was injured on his leg, but his throat was cut off - probably because he was injured and could not walk, he was killed by his accomplices.

Then, another corpse was found in the bushes, killed by a Nanyang rifle.

Judging from the corpse's clothes, they can be said to be ragged, not to mention armor, there is not even decent clothes. They are probably figures like bandits.

Mi Longtao was a little confused. This "flying swarm" was the firearm of officers and soldiers. Ordinary bandits would not store such things. If there were, they would not abuse them casually. Judging from the wooden barrels discarded on the scene, they fired at least four or five "flying swarms" and also discarded two unlaunched ones. Judging from their abuse of firearms in this way and without caring about it, this thing may have come very easily.

"This is not an ordinary bandit." A detective team member who acted as a guide said, "Bandits are not willing to leave empty-handed. They can't get any benefits when they fight in the fleet here, and they spend so much money..."

"Do you think you are an officer or a soldier?"

"It shouldn't be." The detective team member said, "At least, the officers and soldiers are more tidy than them..."

If it is Yaomin, they have nothing to do with Yaomin, regardless of their clothing, hairstyle and abandoned weapons.

No matter who the enemy is, harassing the fleet is an enemy of the Senate. Mi Longtao ordered the troops to expand their search scope, but apart from finding some rags left by bandits, there were no new discoveries.

Mi Longtao retreated his team and returned to Fengchuan. The fleet was mooring at the dock. While allowing the soldiers to move their legs and feet, they replaced the broken bamboo shield.

"Where are your commanders?" he asked.

"On the command boat No. 1." said the busy soldier.

As soon as Mi Longtao walked over, he heard a loud scolding: "...Is this good at making a proposition! Is there any organizational discipline? How did you, a lieutenant, get along?!"

When Mi Longtao walked over, he saw a captain of the National Army scolding the lieutenant. The lieutenant stood straight, and although his face was full of "disapproval", he could only stand respectfully because of his official rank and subordinate relationship.

"...If you want to be in Fubo's army, your behavior will be lost long ago!"

Mi Longtao coughed and Zhu Si, who was scolding Li Dong, stopped. He saw that the person who came was Lieutenant Fu Bo Army. The face he was originally holding was involuntarily changing into a soft expression, and unconsciously stood attentively and saluted.

"Zhu Si, the captain of the Wuzhou Brigade of the National Army!"

Mi Longtao replied casually: "I am Mi Longtao, the commander of Fengchuan County's police."

Theoretically, the ranks of the National Army and the ranks of the Fubo Army are equal, but no one thinks that if the National Army or the Fubo Army officers are equal to those of the regular army officers after half a year, if the ranks of the National Army three months ago are entitled to the ranks of the National Army, they can be on par with regular army officers.:

"Yes! Thank you very much for coming to support us in time!" Zhu Si did not put down his saluting hand, but instead bent down slightly and said loudly.

"You are so kind, it's my responsibility. Are we all comrades?" Mi Longtao waved his hand, "Let's sit in my command center first and let's talk."

"Yes! I'll come here now." Zhu Si didn't even bother to scold Li Dong for "shooting without authorization", turned around and ordered Li Dong, "You are responsible for the repair and supplement work - don't come up with new tricks! Disband!"

The two of them came to the command center, and Mi Longtao took care of Zhu Situ with a bowl of herbal tea and asked about the details of the attack. Zhu Si immediately told the situation in its original form and marked it on the map.

"This is the recent attack." Mi Longtao spread the map in front of him, with Fengchuan as the center. Along the Xijiang River and the Hejiang River, there were dense red dots. Especially after the Xijiang River passed Fengchuan County, the density of red dots increased greatly.

This surprised Zhu Sida. In comparison, it seemed that Wuzhou and Fengchuan had always been calm. Apart from the attack just now, they rarely encountered decent attacks.

"These are from my defense zone, and the downstream situation is even more serious. Where are you doing?"

"Fortunately," said Zhu Si, "I have not been in Wuzhou for a long time, but from Wuzhou to Fengchuan, the river is still peaceful."

"Your journey will be much more dangerous." Mi Longtao reminded him, "From further down to the southern section of the capital, the Xijiang River will turn two major turns, with limited observation conditions and many shallows. In that section, the enemy often attacked. Last month, the Joint Logistics lost two ships there, killing more than a dozen ship workers and soldiers."

Zhu Si initially felt that his scalp was a little frizzy. He passed by that period when he came to Wuzhou, and it was indeed a good place to ambush.

"It seems that the enemy's power is quite strong."

Mi Longtao nodded: "The enemy is equipped very well today." He told the situation he found after landing, and praised the shot for being accurate and fierce. "If it weren't for this shot, I guess the enemy would have to give you a few more shots-there were three or four of them thrown away."

Zhu Si smiled awkwardly. Fortunately, Mi Longtao did not develop it and continued to speak. In order to change the topic, he asked:

"The intelligence notice said that the riots of Yaomin troops have penetrated into this area. Could it be that they did the attack?"

"Not like, not like," Mi Longtao shook his head, "it's easy to dress and weapons, but the Yaomin armed forces do operate in this area, but their purpose is mainly to loot the villages and not to go so hard to attack our armed ships - what's the benefit?"

"But if it's a bandit, is it a loss of money to do this? Could it be an officer or a soldier?"

Mi Longtao laughed and patted Zhu Si on the shoulder: "If the officers and soldiers are so willing to fight, we will not be here. I think, most of them are bandits, and they come here to work hard after getting the benefits of the government. The local gentry now counts on our protection, and they are only bandits who are willing to do anything for money and 'future'."

Zhu Si nodded quickly: "You are talking about it!"

Mi Longtao felt that he was a little restrained and asked, "Which year are you a soldier?"

"In 1632, I joined the army in Shandong." Zhu Si said quickly.

"The qualifications are older than me, it seems like a senior." Mi Longtao said with a smile.

"I dare not say anything." Zhu Si almost stood up.

"Don't be so polite," Mi Longtao waved his hand, "Where are you serving? Guard battalion? No wonder, I saw your military posture and salute-that style is better than those of those who came from student officers! No wonder you became the captain at a young age."
