Chapter 85 Florida Destroyer
Gunshots were fired.
Chen Jianqiu's body fell forward and lay on Hei Luobo's back.
"He's been shot! Sir, that man has been shot!"
The mounted policemen beside Fultz shouted excitedly. They moved to the fence of the side door and continued shooting in the direction of Chen Jianqiu.
The black radish sensed that something was wrong with its owner. It neighed, took long strides, and ran towards the barn door at lightning speed.
"Sir, let's fight in!" The mounted policemen could not forget the humiliation Chen Jianqiu brought them in front of the bear cave last time.
This man is simply a devil. Every time he appears, it makes people feel frightened and suffocated like hell has descended, and it covers their hearts like dark clouds.
Now that the devil is gone, the dark clouds have dissipated, and there is nothing to be afraid of on the other side.
The morale of the troopers was high.
But Fultz put away his gun and stopped his subordinates. A cruel smile appeared on his face: "No, I will burn them all inside."
"But, there are other people on the farm." The adjutant hesitated. The cowboys from Larkfield Farm were out in force, but some ordinary farmhands were still left on the farm. They are now huddled in the bungalows of the dormitory. Dare to come out.
"Burn this farm down!" Fultz ordered.
"But those farmers are not criminals!" The adjutant plucked up the courage and said to his commander. He couldn't believe that his commander had become like this.
"I said burn them all, didn't you understand? Don't leave anyone alive." Fultz looked at the adjutant, "Do I need to explain anything else?"
The adjutant was silent. He had followed Fultz for many years and never refused his orders.
The angel lost himself in the crusade and degenerated into a demon. His commander was not Milga, but Lucifer.
"Hurry! Open the door! It's the boss!" Feiniao, who was squatting in the barn, saw the black radish speeding towards him and shouted behind him.
Danny and Hanif pushed the door open, and Black Carrot rushed in like a whirlwind. A few chasing bullets hit the side door with a crackling sound.
The two men quickly closed the door.
Black Radish ran to the other side of the barn before stopping, but Chen Jianqiu kept lying on Black Radish's back, making no movement.
A group of people moved forward and lifted him off, carrying him to the same wooden chair that Clark had been sitting on.
"Give me a moment, give me a moment."
As a professional doctor, Theresa pushed aside the crowd and leaned forward.
She looked at Chen Jianqiu's vital parts and found no traces of being shot. Then she checked up and down again and found only a bullet scratch on the clothes on his shoulder.
Strange, it was obviously not hit.
Teresa's mind was full of doubts. She raised her head and looked at Chen Jianqiu again, only to find that he was looking at her with his big eyes blinking.
Chen Jianqiu burped.
Smells of alcohol.
"I was just a little dizzy just now." Chen Jianqiu said with a smile.
Everyone dispersed in a hurry and went about their own business. Asuka, Danny, Hanif and Danny continued to stare at the side door of the barn;
Teresa goes to see the injured Sean, who is being watched over by Holmes; only Adam remains by his side.
"Aren't you a good drinker?" Adam sniffed Chen Jianqiu's scent, "That's not right, you actually hid a bottle of Erguotou without telling me."
"I'm not sure, maybe I was too focused before." Chen Jianqiu stood up, took the water bag Adam gave him, took a sip, and immediately acted like a normal person.
Adam's face lost the usual joking and joking, and he pointed to his heart:
"Forcibly entering the shooter state puts a heavy burden on the heart. I will guide you in the follow-up exercises. Only by practicing well can the side effects be reduced."
Chen Jianqiu nodded, but when he looked into Adam's eyes, he suddenly felt confused: "Why do you want to teach me this?"
"Because you are so much like me when I was young, at least in terms of talent; I don't want you to take the detour I took, and I don't want you to have the same irreversible physical consequences as me." Adam said quietly.
"I didn't fall in love with the widow." Chen Jianqiu's answer was "Chen Jianqiu."
Surprisingly, Adam was not angry.
"Well, it's similar. It's also similar in terms of bad mouth." Adam said.
Chen Jianqiu walked down from the wooden platform and looked around. Clark's barn was originally used as a black market trading location, so it was very large. The barn was a cover, and it looked more like a large warehouse.
At this time, four kerosene lamps were burning in the barn, and the fire was spreading toward the warehouse. The firelight from outside shone in through the windows, illuminating the area in front of the door.
"Did you encounter resistance when you came?" Chen Jianqiu asked Adam.
"Clark left a few useless people to guard the house, but they were all taken care of." Adam pointed to several corpses in the corner of the barn.
He introduced the structure of the granary to Chen Jianqiu. The main door of the granary was closed all year round. A road led from the gate to the farm gate, but this line was blocked by Gatling.
There were not many troops on the opposite side of the side door, but Chen Jianqiu broke in like this, and some of the mounted police were redeployed there. Moreover, after breaking out from there and rushing out of the corner, they still couldn't get around the Gatling.
"Danny! Come here to discuss." Chen Jianqiu waved to the police chief.
Danny, who was looking out the window, trotted over with a gun.
"Have you ever tried to snipe the Gatling shooter on the opposite side?" Chen Jianqiu thought of the way he entered.
"No, that Gatling has a steel plate on the front, and we don't have a shooting angle." Danny shook his head and said.
The temperature in the barn was getting higher and higher, and Chen Jianqiu suddenly remembered something: "They set the back of the barn on fire, and it will probably burn to the side of the house soon."
After hearing this, Danny slapped his thigh: "Oh no, there is a compartment in the back that is Clark's ammunition depot."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jianqiu walked quickly to the back of the barn. At the same time, he shouted to other people in the barn: "Everyone except Teresa and Sean, come here."
"Didn't you check what's inside?" Chen Jianqiu asked as he walked.
"Before we had time, there were no lights inside, so we took some conventional ammunition. Because we were afraid Fultz and the others would come in, we all returned to the blocking position."
Clark's ammunition depot was not small. There were stacks of wooden boxes inside, and through the gaps in the wooden boards on the wall, Chen Jianqiu could already see the flames very close at hand.
"Hurry and move things outside, first move those boxes of explosives." Chen Jianqiu ordered the others while bending down to lift two boxes.
He didn't want to see the ammunition depot start setting off fireworks first.
Clark's guys have a lot of stuff, but most of it is old stuff from the Civil War. If they can't move out, they won't be of much use.
Chen Jianqiu opened the boxes one by one, wondering if there was anything that could deal with the Gatling.
"Boss, come in and take a look, what is this?" Feiniao's voice came from the ammunition depot.
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Chen Jianqiu and Danny quickly walked in. Through the firelight in the cracks in the wall panels, they could clearly see what Feiniao said.
In the corner, there is a haystack, and the grass on it has been pulled down. Two wheels and a cannon barrel were exposed.
This is a field gun?
This thing can knock out that Gatling, but most people don't know how to use this kind of front-loading cannon.
However, a man walked up to the cannon. He rolled up his sleeves and began to check the condition of the cannon.
"It works." The Sheriff straightened up, turned to look at the stunned people, and scratched his head.
"Why are you looking at me? I was an artillery captain in the Confederate Army. I had a nickname, 'Florida Destroyer'."
Chen Jianqiu touched his chin meaningfully: "Now I know why they put a reward on you."
