Chapter 759: adaptation

"Retreat," the captain shouted. The Qin army's flanking firepower first withdrew from the battle. They set up defensive positions at the second line of defense.

\"Tututu. Tututu." Qin army's air-cooled heavy machine gun kept firing.

"Retreat. Hurry up." After hearing the order, the machine gunner quickly took off the machine gun and then withdrew from the battle. The defeated Qi Army soldiers had no time to take up their weapons and attack again. They can only take care of their own retreat.

"We have to retreat to the second line of defense quickly." The captain said as he picked up his rifle and began to retreat, and he would turn back and command others from time to time.

Qi Jun fled frantically, while Qin Jun retreated in an orderly manner according to the plan. In this way, this attack war ended.

"In this battle, we probably wiped out about 300 people from the other side. There were no casualties on our side. When the enemy encountered an attack, they had lost the ability to resist us." Captain Qin Jun wrote in a later report. Tao.

"Qi Jun doesn't seem to know that we will suddenly launch an offensive. Their vigilance is very lax. Perhaps because they have a lot of people on their own but there are few on our side, they one-sidedly think that we are impossible, and there is no extra force to launch. Offensive, in fact, they were wrong. They never thought that we would launch an offensive." The captain believed in the summary report that they were able to succeed because they were able to grasp the critical moment when Qi Jun relaxed his vigilance. At this time, Qin Jun happened to seize the favorable opportunity to inflict heavy losses on Qi Jun.

In fact, the number of casualties in the Qi army exceeded more than 400, and there were even more wounded. The total number of casualties exceeded 700. The Qi army suffered such losses before the war started, which made the morale of the Qi army suffer.

"Ah." A surgeon of Qi Jun is actually a military doctor of Qi Jun, because frequent wounds, especially wounds caused by bullets, have been an important problem he has concentrated on in recent years. These bullet wounds are becoming more and more vicious. When medical technology is not very advanced, especially medical equipment is not very advanced, Qi Jun’s military doctors can only adopt amputation methods to improve the soldiers’ chances of survival.

This Qi army doctor was performing amputation on a soldier whose calf was shot by machine gun bullets. The doctor used a saw blade to keep sawing the soldier's calf. The soldier yelled loudly.

The military doctor saw off the calf of the Qi army soldier without looking at it.

After some tossing, the Qi army soldier fainted because of pain, while the military doctor was sweating profusely, his whole body was soaked, and his clothes were covered with blood everywhere. There is no way, Qi Jun’s military doctors don’t even know that there is disinfection. The amputation operation can save the lives of these injured people. If they were left before, their wounds could only be seen to rot, watching maggots crawling over their wounds. It would be better to just die.

After disinfecting with charcoal fire, this is a disinfection method invented by Qi Jun himself. Alcohol is too extravagant for them, and there will be no such thing in logistics that can be sent to the front line, because Qi Jun soldiers often Will steal all the medical alcohol, there is no way, military doctors can only take this painful method to disinfect. This is also the trouble that the soldiers caused themselves. Who told them to drink up the medical alcohol they used.

After doing this. The medic waved his tired arm. Signal the next one.

Two soldiers carried the wounded to the operating table.

"Oh, look at this guy, it's really unlucky." A soldier passed by and saw everything that happened here. The internal organs of the soldier were shot out. The rescued soldier reluctantly took all the internal organs of the wounded soldier to the operating table. The bullet made a big hole in the soldier's stomach, and then the intestines flowed out. The soldier was actually holding on to someone to rescue him, but those soldiers also felt a headache because they didn't know how to start, and in the end they had no choice but to put all the internal organs carefully together, covered with a piece of cloth and sent it here.

With the large-scale use of gunpowder weapons, especially the machine guns that appeared after artillery, such large-scale muzzle trauma has been inevitable. In contrast, medical treatment lags behind the killing speed of weapons, and the high speed of bullets brought by gunpowder weapons, especially after the machine gun uses smokeless gunpowder. This situation is becoming more and more. Many people did not die on the battlefield, more people died in the process of treatment. It can be said that without a complete medical system, such casualties will inevitably occur.

The Qi army’s casualties were costly, but the Qi army quickly learned to strengthen their vigilance, because their opponents didn’t care about the strength of their troops. And caring about how powerful they are, this is one way the opponent teaches them.

Just when the Qin army succeeded in the attack, the Qi army strengthened its guard. The Chu State Water Pirates in the south had a new dynamic.

"Chief, do we really want to take refuge in those water dogs?" a water pirate leader asked loudly.

"Yes, we just want to take refuge in those water dogs, what's the matter?" A pretty woman from Chu country wore two Qin country revolver pistols on her waist, wearing black tights and long leather boots on her feet. On his body is a military coat of Qin State. It seems that this Chu woman is very fashionable.

"Those water dogs are not the same as us." The leader shouted loudly.

"It doesn't matter if you are all the way, as long as you can get revenge. Those Qin dogs hang my fiance on the bow alive. Can I not avenge this kind of hatred? As long as I can get revenge, what can the water dog do?" This Chu Guo pretty woman said viciously with her eyes. Her bright eyes were originally tempting, as if they could talk, but now, her eyes were full of anger, and she wished her eyes could shoot out tongues of fire.

"Yes, we want to avenge the big boss, yes. Revenge." Some people agreed.

"Then, okay." The boss could only say so.

Subsequently, this small-scale water pirate began to contact Xiang Yan's navy to discuss matters related to the subsequent adaptation of the water pirates.

Qin’s attitude towards water pirates was almost extinct, forcing Chu’s water pirates to face great challenges to their survival. The armed merchant ships of the State of Qin adopted a zero-tolerance attitude towards water pirates, which severely hindered the development of commercial activities in the State of Qin.

However, the Qin government has overlooked one point, that is, the emergence of water pirates has its own historical reasons. In a country where the gap between rich and poor has widened due to huge social changes, and at the same time there are many factors of anxiety, this type of water pirates It is very easy to breed the development of this kind of thing.

Especially when the situation of increasing fiscal revenue regardless of the consequences is superimposed in order to accumulate money on a large scale and at the same time to increase national income, this kind of ill will appear frequently.

However, the Qin government, especially the armed merchant ships of the Qin State, blindly adopted a high-pressure attitude and adopted an absolute zero tolerance attitude towards water theft. Many people did not have a correct understanding of the causes of water theft and the solutions. It is also extremely simple and rude. This allowed the contradiction to gradually intensify, and forced the water pirates to the other side.

The living environment of water pirates is becoming more and more difficult to survive. The reason is that Qin’s armed merchant ships have formed a huge high-pressure situation. This high-pressure situation makes the inferior water pirates and Chu State waters that are also facing the huge threat of Qin’s armed merchant ships. The army began to unite.

"As long as you join the Chu State Water Army, you are part of the Chu State Water Army. Our attitude is to welcome you. You can rest assured about this, but I want to say that you are also very clear that the biggest enemy we are facing right now is Who." Xiang Yan actually personally met the head of the water pirate, the pretty woman. However, Xiang Yan was concerned about the impact of the adaptation of this water pirate on the Chu State navy.

"We naturally understand that the big iron ships of the Qin State are rampant, and none of us can stop them. Those machine guns are not something we can stop, and we can't stop them with our bodies, and once we are caught alive by them, Will be hanged alive. We have died a lot," the woman said.

"The same is true for our Chu State navy. Our ships cannot intercept those armed merchant ships of the Qin State, and even we have intercepted the other side, but the other side’s big iron ships simply smashed our ships and sunk our ships, regardless of our lives and deaths. After the casualties, there is no question at all," Xiang Yan said.

Clashes like this have happened many times. At the border between Qin and Chu, Chu's local navy didn't even care about it. Those places didn't even have to pay taxes. Because the armed merchant ships of the Qin State directly threatened those Chu navy forces with equipped machine guns. Even the naval air force of the Qin State Navy joined in the fun, and the plane with pontoons dropped bombs directly on the water next to the ship, and the blasted water column directly threatened the small wooden boats of the Chu State navy. In the face of this threat, Chu's local navy forces directly gave way and no longer asked about it.

While Xiang Yan walked all the way up and encountered Qin's armed merchant ship, but the other party did not stop at all, and passed directly through the Chu State Navy fleet. The Chu State Navy tried to intercept it, but it simply couldn't work. It also rammed and sank several Chu State naval forces.

But suffering from too weak combat power. The two sides are not at the same level of weapons at all, and the gap between the two sides is really too great. There is no way to fight between the two. Xiang Yan was very clear and couldn't help but give up.

However, he still hopes to change this situation frequently, so he adopts the adaptation of Water Pirates to strengthen his strength. Combining the two forces and jointly dealing with the armed merchant ships of the State of Qin became his only choice.

The adaptation in this way became the basis of the cooperative relationship between the two parties. After all, the Chu State Navy was a legal law enforcement agency, and the water pirates did not have this right. This kind of temptation was absolutely absent from the water pirates.
