From ancient times to the present, war is inseparable from the word firepower, and in the era of cold weapons, soldiers rounded their arms with swords, so the three-foot-long area in front of them is the range of firepower, and the range controlled by the spearmen can reach three or four meters, so this spear jungle also belongs to the range of firepower. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Not to mention long-range weapons such as bows and crossbows, trebuchets, in fact, ancient generals paid more attention to the firepower output of the army, but there was no such concept at that time.

Why did the army have a military formation? Why was the phalanx of ancient Rome able to defeat the barbarians with fewer victories? In fact, this is also the result of people's research on the output of firepower, one person has one strength, ten people have the strength of ten people, but ten scattered people and ten people who fight in a formation with their shoulders and backs are not the same in killing the enemy.

Only a military formation can coordinate the firepower of all people and kill the enemy with high efficiency in an organized and coordinated manner! Modern biology calls the energy of human muscles chemical energy, which is actually a process of slow-burning carbon, so it seems that the power of cold weapon combat can actually be linked to firepower in the modern sense.

"Firepower!firepower!firepower...... What I want is firepower! Regardless of casualties and costs, I must withstand the enemy's attack and send all the grenades up!" Chu Zhao is crazy, he can see clearly now, the enemy's attack has become an acute angle and is heading straight for the direction of Zaichun's retreat.

This group of people is going to capture Emperor Tongzhi alive, and at this moment, Zaichun has just left the front line more than 200 meters, which is not far from the distance at all, and the crisis is far from being resolved.

"Assault, assault! Don't be afraid of the dead, there are reinforcements in the back! Fill me with the corpses of men and horses! You must not let the big fish escape......" Fox Chuck felt that his vocal cords were dumb, and the sting seemed to break.

In just such a short time, the strength of a battalion has been exhausted, and the corpses of 500 men and horses are spread on the assault surface of just over 200 meters, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

This is a gambler who has gambled red-eyed, and he is not willing to accept such a loss, so he wants to get his money back! Capture Jae-chun alive, even if he drives a big one.

"We still have troops! all pressed up, you are all dead, and I will die with ......"

"Ulla, Ula ......" Just as the fox Chuck was hoarsely boosting his morale, there was a sudden endless roar of Ula in the dense forest behind him, followed by the neighing of war horses, and one cavalry after another rushed out.

There was a rumbling in the woods, the last of the ambush wires had been broken, and now there was nothing left on the west bank of the Suifen River to stop the enemy.

"Hahaha...... The main force has arrived!

"Friendly troops! Rush in the direction of our corpses...... Wherever is the Emperor of the Qing Kingdom! Capture him alive......"

"Do you see the direction of my soldier's head? That's the direction of the main attack, rush...... Rush!"

Chuck the fox stood on the ice, and the crowds of cavalry rushed around him, and he was crying and laughing as he guided the army forward, and the whole person was already going crazy.

Firepower and human life, now it depends on whose density is greater! The final prize is Zaichun, the Tongzhi Emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom!

The cloud-like war horses and empty horses poured out, and the sharp charging angle quickly turned into an obtuse angle, and at this time, the ten plus masters all fired, and there was no need to aim at all, and the opposite side rushed up with live targets.

The Mauser in the forward position also opened his shot, and the smoke of gunpowder filled the ground, and the grenades rolled forward to blast gaps one by one, and then they were filled in an instant.

In such a cavalry charge, no one can be a deserter, and you can't even move your horse left and right, because there are people on the left and right, front and back, and you can only run in a straight line, and those who move will only cause a horse collision.

There is no turning back, you can only move forward and die, everyone can only silently pray to God, and finally when you rush to the position, the gap has opened.

In the midst of the chaos, Gogol also appeared on the shore, standing on the high ground and looking out at the impact ahead, with a blank face and no regard for the life and death of his soldiers.

"Increase the density and we can crash through...... Even if half of the battle is killed, as long as the Qing Emperor is captured alive, we will win!"

"On the gendarmerie overseer, put pressure on both flanks......"

As soon as the division commander gave the order, the gendarmerie supervised the battle team and began to spread, and soon the two wings of the army sounded with a neat shout "Speed up, speed up...... Those who hesitate will be killed! The fugitives will slaughter their entire families! Crash over, all of them will crash over...... "Bang bang, the military police of the war oversaw the sky again, and the sound of the guns shocked the soldiers like rolling marching ants to ignore life and death."

No matter how strong the front is, it can't stand such an attack density, and although Gatling is easy to use, there are too many empty horses that can't stand up to rushing up, and these Cossacks send out all the horses they have stolen from their long march, which is to fill in with horse corpses instead of human lives.

Uncle Jia's fire dragon slaughter efficiency began to decrease, and the enemy's corpse had become a good low wall for consuming ammunition, and many bullets were repeatedly hit on the corpse, and the waste was getting more and more serious.

The cavalry rode over the corpse hill and frantically attacked the position, more and more, and finally a cavalry rushed into the sandbag wall, and the position was in chaos.

The Cossack picked up his saber and slashed desperately in the narrow space, he knew that he would definitely die, but he wanted to use his death to disturb the volunteers for ten more seconds.

Maybe just 10 seconds can turn the tide of the battle!

The cavalry was hacked to death, and then the volunteers continued to shoot outward, and then another enemy crashed in, this time it was not a cold weapon saber, and the grenade exploded and died together.

Chu Zhao had never commanded such a brutal battle, and he felt that he couldn't breathe anymore, "What about our artillery, why don't the artillerymen fire yet......"

"It's almost ...... It's about to fire...... Damn, is the enemy crazy?" everyone in the headquarters looked back, only to find that the 800 Cossacks who had attacked the northeast of the battlefield had launched a suicidal attack.

The 800 cavalry desperately rushed to the west, allowing the surrounding volunteer firepower to peel them off layer by layer, and letting the corpses of men and horses roll to the ground, and they were familiar with only one target, that is, the position of the volunteer artillery group that was preparing for shooting.

"Kill the artillery and hold off the Chinese! Even if we all die in battle, as long as we can hold off the artillery group for ten minutes...... That's enough! God bless the Motherland! God bless His Majesty the Tsar!"

In the end, there were only 200 men left of the 800 cavalry, but these 200 people had thrown the artillery positions into chaos, and the front line had been exchanged fire for ten minutes, but they did not fire a single shot.

Chu Zhao saw tears rolling down, and he hurriedly furrowed his paws, "What should I do? What can I do...... "After all, it is a new army, and the battlefield commander is not a veteran, there must be too much suffering waiting for them on the road to maturity."

"Prime Minister, please don't look at it, think of a way!" Chu Zhao shouted, "You can't defend like this, you must fight back, choose the dead to wrap explosives and rush up, and attack! Now there is only one way to attack!"

"Yes! The commander ordered the troops to select the dead soldiers and rush to tie them up!" the herald's roar began to pass around.

At this moment, a calm voice sounded: "Idiot, you, who are you kidnapping? Are you a **** yourself?"

As he spoke, Xiao Lotian strode into the field headquarters built with sandbags.
