Bright Sword: I am Li Yunlong's old squad leader

"I know that when Qi's army was fighting against the Japanese pirates, they used the Mandarin Duck Formation and beat the Japanese pirates into a panic, forcing them to flee in embarrassment." When it came to this, Zhang Dabiao talked nonstop as if he had opened a chatterbox.

"Sergeant, do you have any good ideas? Tell your brothers quickly." Li Yunlong looked at Wang Tianyou expectantly, and everyone else did the same.

"When General Qi fought against the Japanese pirates, in addition to the Mandarin Duck Formation, he had another magic weapon to win the battle, and that was the Mud Pry."

"What's that?"

“That group of pirates attacked from the sea, and once they lost the battle or robbed something, they could quickly retreat from the sea.

However, it would be very difficult for Qi's army to catch up with them.

The tide receded and the muddy beach became a mess.

It would be almost impossible for Qi's army to pass through the waist-deep mud to pursue the Japanese pirates."

After hearing this, everyone nodded.

In front of us is a vast grassland, which is full of mud and swamps.

This environment is even more complicated than the environment at the seaside when Qi's army fought against the Japanese pirates.

"Later, Qi's army used something called a mud pry.

This thing can move quickly through this mud.

The speed can reach 20 kilometers per hour, which means it can travel 40 miles in an hour."

When everyone heard about this magical thing, they immediately became interested.

This mud sled is a large-sized snowboard and is made of wood.

The materials for making it are all over the place.

This mud sled is two and a half meters long, 50 centimeters wide, and has a handrail in the middle.

People can stand on it and use a bamboo pole to support themselves to move forward, or they can kneel on one knee and use the other leg to push the mud to move forward.

It would not be a problem to build a few hundred clay woodcutters to carry everyone across the grassland.

Everyone was delighted when they heard this.

After a short rest, everyone quickly split up and took action.

……

Songpan Town is less than 20 miles away from Songpan Grassland.

Hu Zongnan's vanguard troops have occupied Songpan Town.

Li Yunlong and Wang Tianyou changed into the enemy's military uniforms, took the money, and galloped straight to Songpan Town.

The defeated army last night has also retreated to Songpan Town.

Wang Tianyou and Li Yunlong were soon attracted by the noise in front.

A group of white dogs escorted a dozen Red Army soldiers past them.

These brave and fearless warriors were as young as thirteen or fourteen years old, and as old as forty or fifty years old.

They were captured by these white dogs because they were lacking in clothing, malnourished, and out of ammunition and food.

These brave warriors wanted to die but failed, and now they can only be paraded through the streets by these white dogs with their gun butts as a warning to others.

The two white dogs in front were beating gongs to clear the way.

"Listen to me, you bunch of untouchables, the people behind us are all red bandits.

They are all monsters.

These red bandits are beasts who eat people without leaving any bones behind.”

"You lowly people, anyone who dares to hide the Red Bandits or provide any help to the Red Bandits will be shot to death after being caught, without mercy."

The dozen or so soldiers staggered forward barefoot, all with heavy iron shackles on their feet.

The heavy iron shackles rubbed the ankles of these brave and fearless warriors so hard that the bones at the ankles of some warriors were exposed.

Those soldiers who were thirteen or fourteen years old felt piercing pain all over their bodies with every step they took, and their whole bodies trembled uncontrollably with every step they took.

The iron shackles on their ankles weighed dozens of kilograms, and every step they took left a blood-red footprint on the bluestone road.

"Damn it, move on, move on. If you don't move on, I'll beat you to death." The big-headed soldiers kept kicking the Red Army soldiers with their big leather shoes.

The soles of these big leather shoes are extremely hard and can break bones if kicked against them.

What's worse, they swung whips at these teenagers, hitting them so hard that their skin was torn and flesh was exposed.

But these big men showed no mercy.

A child soldier was beaten until his body was covered in blood, and his military uniform had long been torn into rags.

This tattered military uniform was soaked with fresh dye over and over again, and its original color could not be seen at all.

The child soldier was exhausted and his eyes went dark before he fell to the ground with a thud.

However, instead of feeling any sympathy, these white dogs went even further and swung their gun butts, hitting the child soldier on the head.

An older Red Army soldier quickly threw himself on the child soldier and used his body to protect him: "Do you still have any humanity? He is just a child. Don't you have any children?"

"You are a bunch of red bandits who deserve to be put to death. You are still saying such things. Beat them to death." Several soldiers rushed forward, surrounded the big and small, and beat them desperately.

The group of defeated soldiers who had escaped from the grassland last night were worried that they had no place to vent their anger, so they also surrounded the dozen or so Red Army soldiers to vent their anger.

Although these skinny warriors were surrounded and beaten by the crowd, none of them uttered a single sound, let alone a single scream.

Wang Tianyou quickly pulled out his pistol, and with a snap, he fired a shot into the sky: "Stop it, f*cking everyone. If anyone dares to act rashly, I'll shoot him dead."

All the people nearby looked over.

These soldiers were also stunned. They stood up and looked at Li Yunlong and Wang Tianyou.

The military uniform Wang Tianyou was wearing was the same one Li Saihao was wearing yesterday.

A soldier ran up to Wang Tianyou and saluted him: "Sir, these are red bandits.

They all deserve to die, there is no need to pity them.

In yesterday's battle, hundreds of our brothers died at the hands of these red bandits."

"Sir, don't underestimate these young men because they are very brave in battle. Many of our brothers have died at their hands."

"Commander, along the way, hundreds of thousands of our troops have been fooled around by this bunch of red bandits. The brothers are all holding their breath. We all want to kill these guys."

Wang Tianyou quickly pointed his gun at the men and said, "Commander Hu has ordered that all captured bandits be gathered together for him to deal with. If you kill these bandits without authorization, I will kill you."

At this moment, a man who looked like a company commander came over and said, "Sir, excuse me for asking. Which unit do you belong to?"

With a snap, Li Yunlong whipped the company commander with his horse whip. The force of the whip was so great that a bloody mark was drawn on his face. "How dare you, a small company commander, come and ask our regiment commander? I think you are quite courageous."

Before Li Yunlong finished speaking, he whipped him again: "Didn't you hear what our regiment commander said? Release the man immediately and take him to the ancestral hall in front."

……

Hu Zongnan's vanguard troops rushed into the shop next door and robbed money and things.

Several soldiers took out two secret hams from a shop.

The local ethnic minority people rushed out with sharp knives.

"This ham. You haven't paid for it yet."

The soldiers turned around and chuckled.
