Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

Chapter 1087

As a result, under the crazy shooting of the Wuchang Squad, the Yuan Mongolian soldiers immediately suffered a large number of casualties.

They were either hit in the limbs or in the torso, and those who were unlucky were even hit directly in the vital parts.

Under such a strafing, even the Yuan Mongolian soldiers lying on the ground could not escape.

After a round of firepower coverage, dozens of Yuan Mongolian soldiers fell to the ground on the spot. Although they did not die, they lost their combat capability.

The cries of pain and wails echoed in the forest one after another, making the captain of the Yuan army so angry that he was about to burst into flames.

This time he summoned a total of seven Yuan army teams, plus his own team, making a total of eight.

Each team consists of twenty people, which means their total combat strength is one hundred and sixty people.

At the beginning, more than twenty people were killed, and now dozens of people have been killed. Now there are only more than a hundred people alive.

The key point is that those soldiers who were hit by bullets and were lying on the ground wailing are unlikely to survive.

Therefore, there were actually only less than a hundred people who were able to continue fighting the enemy, and almost half of them were killed or injured.

But he could not retreat, because it was now certain that the Crown Prince of Ming must be among these people.

After all, so many people were killed and injured. If the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty could be captured, not only would he not be punished, but he would also be rewarded.

But if we retreat now, not only will we gain nothing, but we will also have to bear the punishment of so many deaths and injuries.

For the captain of the Yuan army, there is no way out now. Even if he cannot capture him alive, he must at least kill Zhu Biao.

This way I'll have something to say even when I go back, so the most important thing now is to keep the person here.

After making the decision in his heart, the captain of the Yuan army immediately shouted something in the language of the grassland.

"Leave them here. I've sent people to get reinforcements. The army will be here to support us soon!"

"If we can capture the Crown Prince of Daming, we can all claim the credit when we return. If we can't, everyone will be punished!"

In fact, after being covered by firepower, the Yuan soldiers were frightened when they saw so many of their companions were killed or injured.

In their view, this was not an equal war at all, but a one-sided massacre by the enemy.

But now, after hearing what the Yuanbing captain said, they also realized that there was no way back and they could only continue.

After boosting morale, the captain of the Yuan army switched to Chinese and shouted something loudly in order to delay time.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, I know you are here. I advise you to order your guards to surrender."

"We've surrounded this forest. Surrender and I'll keep you alive. Resisting will only lead to your death!"

After the captain of the Yuan army finished shouting, Zhu Biao's response came immediately from the other side:

"You're dreaming! In my Ming Dynasty, there are only crown princes who died standing, not princes who surrendered on their knees. Do you barbarians think you can make me submit?"

After hearing Zhu Biao's response, the Yuan army captain's first reaction was not to reply, but to look towards the cave.

That’s right, Zhu Biao’s voice came from here. He never left the cave from beginning to end.

Because the enemy came so suddenly and had rifled flintlock rifles in their hands, Wei Yi did not dare to escape into the forest with Zhu Biao.

Zhu Biao could only be placed in a cave to ensure his safety to the greatest extent.

Otherwise, while escaping, with bullets flying around in the hail of gunfire, no one could guarantee that Zhu Biao would not be hit by stray bullets.

But it was different in the cave. No matter how fast the bullets flew, they could not hurt Zhu Biao inside.

Moreover, this is a cave with a small entrance and a large interior space, so it would be useless even if someone shot directly at the cave.

In addition, the entrance to the cave is a flat open space without any cover, and the Impermanence Squad is right around the entrance.

If someone wanted to break in and capture Zhu Biao, the first thing they would have to face was the fire from ten automatic rifles.

This is why Wei Yi arranged for Zhu Biao to stay in the cave. No carbon-based creature can withstand such output.

On the other hand, the captain of the Yuan army realized that Zhu Biao was in the cave, and at first he did think about rushing over to catch him.

But he quickly dismissed the idea. After all, the number of guards on Zhu Biao's side was no less than his own soldiers.

If he really rushed out, he might not be able to catch Zhu Biao, but would cause greater casualties.

The reason why the captain of the Yuan army thought that the number of people on Zhu Biao's side was not much different from the number of people on his side.

It was mainly because of the firearms. He had no idea that the guns used by the Impermanence Squad were different from those used by his side.

They just thought that the other side had more people and were more proficient in firearms than them, so they were able to suppress and defeat them.

Anyway, rushing into the cave to catch people would not work, and his purpose was just to delay time, so he started shouting again.

"Your Highness, Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, sometimes you shouldn't be so confident. Even if you are not afraid of death, where are your guards?"

"I'm only trying to persuade you to surrender in the hope of gaining some merit, not because I really can't do anything to you. So, let's put it this way!"

"You have one stick of incense to make a decision. If you still don't surrender by then, I won't mind a smaller reward!"

To be honest, the Yuan army captain's words might be used to deceive others, but using them on Zhu Biao would be a bit self-humiliating.

Zhu Biao guessed at the first moment that he was delaying time, but he didn't have a good way to deal with it.

He definitely couldn't escape, otherwise he would have escaped at the beginning and wouldn't have to wait until now. Besides, he was in a cave.

Going out would mean exposing yourself to the enemy's guns, which is extremely unwise.

And even if he wanted to escape, he had to communicate with the Impermanence Team in advance. The problem was that he was inside the cave and the Impermanence Team was outside.

If the voice is too low, the enemy cannot hear it; if the voice is too loud, the enemy can also hear it, which is equivalent to plotting in person.

Zhu Biao's silence kept the situation at a stalemate, but this was exactly the result the Yuan army captain wanted to see.

However, this was not the result that the Wuchang Squad wanted, so Wei Wu looked at Wei Yi again and brought up the old matter again.

"This guy is stalling for time. We can't delay any longer. Let me go around him!"

Wei Yi also understood that there was no other way out at this point. If he didn't deal with the Yuan soldiers in front of him quickly, he would definitely be surrounded.

So this time Wei Yi did not refuse, but nodded and said:

"Okay, but you can't do it alone. Bring Wei Si and Wei Liu with you. The three of us can act together so we can look after each other!"

"My brothers and I will fire to distract them and cover your movements!"

Not long after, Wei Yi's shout was heard again in the forest, followed by dense gunfire.

Under the cover of gunfire, three figures quietly disappeared into the jungle.
