Douluo See You For a Long Time

Chapter 1,626 The Rebel Army

Although the industrial products produced in the factory are not necessities of life, their most produced bearings undoubtedly play a vital role in the entire industrial system.

Controlling the production of these things is equivalent to controlling an extremely important lifeline for the entire industrial system. In this way, it can also have a similar effect to controlling the land. Of course, they do not monopolize this industry, so Being able to hold power is only a small part of it.

Even so, for a new small collective with only about 5,000 people, these means of production are enough to maintain their production and life.

Armed uprising is a must, and the arrow is ready and must be fired.

After the equipment is prepared, it has been distributed to those members who have undergone militarized training. The pyramid system of the Sandstorm Group can continue to attract people to join because they can actually bring benefits to the participants.

For example, they can protect the safety of those who join. As a vulnerable group, individual workers are a vulnerable group that is plundered in front of the street gangsters who work for them.

These guys hanging out on the streets may not have a very good life, and they may not even have as much money as workers, but this kind of poverty and the poverty of workers are two different concepts. The former does not carry out effective labor and social production at all, while the latter does not Production was carried out and a large amount of value was created, but it was not distributed to one's own hands.

Therefore, the Sandstorm Group had no sympathy for homeless homeless people with hands and feet. After the number of people in the organization exceeded one hundred, they assigned some people to undergo off-duty military training. After specifically learning how to fight and cooperate, they held brooms on the streets. These few people can beat the whole street without any opponents.

With the subsequent increase in the number of people, more and more people are undergoing off-the-job military training. From the beginning, there were only three or five people who were dedicated to protecting workers from being robbed while commuting to and from get off work.

Later, there were more than 200 people, and they even took over the work of the local sheriff. We have implemented security management in some areas, making the security environment around the factory extremely excellent.

But this time, these guys who were originally holding brooms were replaced with flintlock guns. Compared with the most original design, this flintlock gun uses paper shell bullets and can barely be regarded as a breech-loading gun. The shooting speed is still guaranteed. of.

If possible, they do not need to line up to shoot. It is possible to shoot from a prone position behind a bunker.

However, during the training process, they all trained according to the method of lining up to shoot. On the one hand, their opponents did not have the same gun array. Even if they lined up in a dense formation, they would not be able to face a soul master who was good at melee attacks. Don't worry about being taken away by the opponent's long-range attack.

On the other hand, the performance of the firearms in their hands is still relatively average. It is unrealistic to rely on long-range attacks to defeat all hostile soul masters. More importantly, they have to install bayonets and fight in close combat.

As for the fight after attaching the bayonet, if you want to defeat the powerful soul master with the physical fitness of ordinary people, you can only rely on dense formation and close cooperation. If a person only has two hands, it will be difficult for him to defend against the third spear. As long as the formation is dense enough to three people, enough to besiege one person, it will be difficult for the soul master to take advantage of his physical fitness.

After all, if a strong adult man thrust out a spear with all his strength, it would still be quite powerful. Unless he was a defensive soul master, it would be impossible for anyone below the Fourth Ring Soul Sect to withstand such an attack without being injured.

The armed force of two hundred people is already quite sufficient when facing the soul masters under the factory owner.

Except for those who were assigned muskets, the others also found their own weapons. Most people still used brooms, but with iron gun heads installed.

This thing was not bought in Xingguan City, but brought directly from Xingluo City. In other words, the locals did not know that there was already an armed force of 5,000 people, each of whom had a long gun. Although these people have not undergone standard military training.

However, long-term obedience to discipline has enabled them to line up skillfully and walk in unison while maintaining the formation. This is to follow orders and complete attack actions.

Although rigid and rigid, as long as he can do these things, he is already much better than most feudal lords raising thugs who only have tendons and meat and can only swarm forward.

The strength of an army does not lie in the physical prowess of an individual, but in the cooperation between each other. If there is still a possibility that a soul master can withstand the thrusts of two spears at the same time, ordinary people will be attacked by two spears at the same time, no matter how strong their health is. No matter how strong he is, he will definitely die.

When facing the military formation, there were not two spears, but a forest of spears, piercing them like a wall. If they were not soul masters, there was basically no hope of survival by relying on stragglers.

The first gunshot of the armed uprising was fired on the eve of dawn. Ji Zhen did not choose a night attack. Although attacking the opponent at night is the most likely to cause heavy casualties, fighting at night also has a very high quality for one's own soldiers. requirements.

If things go wrong, there will be chaos on your own side first, and a stampede will occur among your own people, which will prevent you from collapsing.

On the other hand, the physical fitness of these workers is not very good. The wages were too low before, and most of them suffered from malnutrition, which also caused an extremely common disease, night blindness.

Lack of nutrition and necessary vitamins can easily cause night blindness. In contrast, no matter how bad a soul master is, they will not lack food or clothing. They can easily see at night. In this case In a night attack, although it is possible to catch the opponent off guard, the probability of casualties and failure on one's own side is also greater.

Therefore, the staff chose to launch a surprise attack on the eve of dawn. At this time, the sun had basically risen and the workers could see clearly. However, the soul masters and nobles generally had not gotten up at this time, and even if they woke up, they would still be in the dark. In a vague state, it is difficult to react to an emergency situation.

Ji Zhen personally led people to the factory owner's manor, which was the most difficult place to attack during the uprising. There were only two soul masters, twenty guns, and more than five hundred angry men holding long rifles at the factory. A common worker with a spear.

What they faced were the factory owners' henchmen, the servants and supervisors who once rode on their heads to dominate them. The soul master did not want to stay in the factory forever. After all, the environment there was not good and the noise was huge. , the air is choking, and the heat is extremely stifling. It is pure suffering to stay there. Except for sending one or two soul masters on duty every day, the only ones who really look after the factory are the factory owners' henchmen.

These guys usually show off their power and can even whip the workers, relying on the support of the soul masters and noble masters behind them. Now the workers in the factory are very aware of their companions and have gone to eliminate these scoundrel backers. Naturally, they don't have the slightest fear. .

At the same time, outside the tall wall of the manor, Jizhen made a gesture to the two soul masters beside him. The two nodded to him, indicating that they understood.

Together with four soldiers, each carried a large package and held a sapper shovel in his hand, taking advantage of the last darkness before dawn. He ran quickly towards the village wall.

At dawn, the guards were at their most lax. The servants on the wall were all yawning, waiting for six men with explosive bags. By the time they rushed to the bottom of the village wall, it was already too late to sound the alarm.

The explosives had been placed. The two soul masters and four warriors quickly ran out of the attack range of the bows and arrows. With a continuous loud noise, these solid wooden walls built with the bodies of plant-based soul beasts were blown to pieces. . The gate that lost its support collapsed directly. Almost at the same time, the workers who had been hiding behind the hillside rushed out.

They were not moving very fast. Behind Jizhen and the others, they were sitting on a cart, beating the drums hard. The drums directed everyone's steps forward, so that they could take every step neatly and maintain strict control. The formation moved slowly towards the manor, which had been blasted open.

Although there were only more than 4,000 people, they were really neatly arranged in the wilderness. The scene was almost blocking out the sky and the sun. Anyone who has seen high school students running and doing gymnastics can feel the spectacular scene when looking down from the top of the building, but In fact, most schools can only gather more than a thousand people on the playground. After tripling this number, the scene becomes very oppressive.

Viscount Leslie was awakened from his sleep by the explosion. He ran out of his mansion in his pajamas, climbed to the high tower in the manor, and saw the dark military formation pressing towards him.

The stern military appearance and the numerous spears made him think for a while that something had happened to him and that the government had come to attack him.

But soon, he noticed that these people were not wearing army clothes, but workers' work clothes. Seeing this, he first breathed a sigh of relief, and then a surge of anger rushed to his forehead: "Cavalry! Where are the cavalry? Here? Come on! Kill them all!"

The cavalry has a huge advantage in this era. Relying on the impact of the war horse and the superiority of riding on the war horse, using long weapons, even ordinary people can take on more than a dozen people alone after long-term training. A pikeman without formation.

As long as a dozen of these people form a knighthood, they can easily suppress hundreds or even thousands of peasants.

Only this time, Viscount Leslie obviously miscalculated. The more than 20 carefully selected knights he sent were all sleepy-eyed and did not wear their armor properly. Two of them even forgot to bring their weapons and rode on their horses. Rushed out.

The condition of these knights was very poor. During the charge, not to mention maintaining a strict formation, the two guys who forgot to pick up their weapons almost fell off their horses in panic.

Whether these guys had weapons or not was no longer important to Yuji Zhen. The beat of the drum he beat suddenly changed, and the musketeers who had practiced countless times suddenly stopped advancing. Lift the muzzle of the gun, load it, aim, and fire, all in one go!

Flintlock muskets using paper bullets were much easier to load than front hall guns. Soon they had loaded another round, but there was no need to fire a second round.

Before the battle began, the commander of the staff emphasized to them that when facing the cavalry, aim for the horse shot and ignore the knight above. Those iron cans are nothing after they fall to the ground. Anyone with a spear can poke them. Kill them, so after a volley, only one of the twenty horses survived. The same knight who forgot his weapon.

The knights were wiped out almost instantly. Viscount Leslie, who was standing on the high platform and holding a telescope to see this scene, slammed the telescope in his hand: "Fucking unruly people! Dare to kill my horse! "

The soul masters in the family and the hired soul masters knew that they had to deal with the soldiers with guns first. But if they rushed over now, the charge distance was more than 200 meters. By the time they reached the opposite side, they would have been shot into sieves. Even if the guns in their hands had a range of only more than 100 meters, no soul master was willing to take this risk.

"Master, don't get excited. These unruly people dare to be so arrogant because they have firearms in their hands. Let's wait for them to get closer. When they come to the wall of the village, they only need a few range soul skills to kill all those with guns. At that time, this group of rabble will just kill a few people and disperse."

Viscount Leslie suppressed his rage and nodded, agreeing with this bad idea. In his opinion, his soul masters are indeed more suitable for fighting in complex terrain.

But he obviously didn't think about it. The exit of his hometown was blocked by others, so he would kill everyone who came out? Why should others take the risk to come in and accept his ambush? It was his manor that was surrounded. People outside were holding catapults and setting fire to it. What could he do?

What if these people kept surrounding the manor and the food ran out?

Of course, he didn't consider this problem in a sense because he didn't think these workers would have surplus food. More than 4,000 people gathered here and they would collapse in two days because they had no food.

It was impossible for the Sandstorm Group to have no surplus food. Their logistics were estimated to be quite sufficient, but Jizhen didn't plan to besiege it because Viscount Leslie could call for reinforcements. There might be variables in the siege. Only by controlling the Viscount first and making the rest of the things a reality, it would be convenient to seize the factory next.

The army quickly advanced to a distance of 50 meters in front of the gate of the fortress. With the sound of a horn, everyone stopped. The pikemen took a step forward, raised their weapons and moved forward, ready to attack at any time. The musketeers also raised their weapons, aimed at the breach in the manor, ready to shoot at any time.

Forty musketeers separated and followed behind the twenty soul masters, dispersing their formation and moving towards the breach in the fortress. Although it was not a three-three infantry tactic, two guns covered one soul master, and there were volley gun companions in the back row ready for fire support at any time, which was enough to completely suppress the resistance in the manor.
