Chapter 31: Flintlock Pistol vs. Vulcan Gun

Zhu Youzhen also specially told him not to be impulsive when encountering firearms, although Li Cunxiao is extremely brave, but to say that he can deal with 2,000 firearms, it is obviously a joke. Although he retreated in time, the steel armor on his back was still rattling with fire.

Li Cunxiao felt a little numb in his back, and couldn't help but secretly rejoice, fortunately, he retreated in time just now.

Soon after Li Cunxiao retreated, other Xuanjia iron cavalry arrived one after another, and Li Cunxiao waved his hand to stop them from attacking.

"The iron cavalry suspended the attack, they have firearms, and Daming has firearms that are more advanced than the opponent, so there is no need to do unnecessary casualties."

"Whoa"

The Xuanjia Iron Rider is one less dead, and if there is too much damage, the emperor will settle accounts with him.

Seeing that the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty did not dare to attack, Li Guo's face showed a smug smile, his soldiers suffered heavy casualties in the face of the Daming firearms, and finally had a chance to counterattack.

"Come on, rush over, rush over and eat guns, firearms are not only available to you Daming, we have a lot of them in the Dashun army."

Li Guo deliberately provoked Li Cunxiao, wanting to provoke Li Cunxiao to rush forward to die, and the firearms soldiers under his command also arrogantly raised fire guns to demonstrate against Li Cunxiao.

Li Cunxiao, who was summoned by the system, has changed a lot from history, he is very calm and calm, and he will not violate the emperor's orders.

Zhu Youzhen had already explained to him that he should be calm when encountering firearms and not charge recklessly, so he completely ignored Li Guo's provocation.

Li Cunxiao looked indifferent, and led the Xuanjia Army to stand outside the range of the firecracker, waiting for the arrival of the Qi family's army, Qi Jiguang was not far away.

Soon, Zhu Youzhen and Qi Jiguang and Sun Chuanting arrived, Zhu Youzhen looked at the firearms soldier opposite, and when he looked at Li Cunxiao's expression, he knew that he was deflated.

If Li Cunxiao had ordered the cavalry to charge quickly regardless of the casualties, he would definitely be able to kill Li Guo and these people, but Zhu Youzhen was reluctant to have unnecessary casualties on the iron cavalry.

Smiling and patting Li Cunxiao on the shoulder, Zhu Youzhen smiled:

"The general is doing a good job, we have more advanced weapons than them, there is no need to fight hard, don't worry, let General Qi give you anger."

"General Qi is ready to fight, let the rogue firearms take a look at our flintlock guns."

"Obedience"

"Qi Jiajun prepares."

"Yes"

Qi Jiguang agreed, waved his hand at the Qi family army behind him, and then the Qi family's firearms soldiers took a few steps forward, quickly lined up, and picked up the flintlock pistol.

Seeing the rows of firearms in the hands of the rogue on the opposite side, Qi Jiguang couldn't help but sigh secretly, those were all the firearms they used before the Ming Dynasty.

And now, in front of the lord's flintlock pistol, it was almost the same as a burning stick, and he hugged his fist at Zhu Youzhen and promised:

"Your Majesty, you can rest assured, compared with our flintlock pistol, the Liukou's firearm is not at the same level at all, and Weichen strives to annihilate them."

"Fire"

As soon as Qi Jiguang gave the order, the flintlock pistol of the Qi family army was aimed at the liukou, and the gunshots suddenly rang out.

The firearms in the hands of the Liukou were all captured from the Ming soldiers, and the effective range was about 50 paces, and now the Ming army was aiming at them about a hundred paces away from them.

When the rogue firearms saw the Ming soldiers standing so far away and fired, they all laughed wildly, it was impossible for this firearm from the Ming Dynasty to hit them.

"Brothers, look, a group of stupid girls on the other side, they want to shoot at such a distance, it's a joke."

"Bang Bang"

"Ah...... I'll go, it's not reasonable......"

But how did they know that the flintlock pistols of the Daming Fire Soldiers were all improved, and they were filled with paper-wrapped bullets, and the effective range had reached about 100 paces.

This kind of positional warfare is different from individual combat, as long as you aim and shoot, and the more than 3,000 firearms soldiers who came up just now will definitely suffer a large number of casualties under the cover of bullets.

A burst of gunfire rang out, and the soldiers of the Rogue Firearms Battalion, who were still triumphant just now, instantly fell into a large area, and the Rogue was suddenly shocked, and instantly lost his calmness just now.

In a panic, they forgot the killing range of the firebolts, and raised their firebolts one after another to shoot, but the effective range of the firebolts was limited and could not hurt the Ming army at all.

Seeing that their companions kept falling, and hundreds of casualties were killed and injured in an instant, these usually arrogant and domineering firearms soldiers suddenly lost the courage to confront the Ming army.

"This Nima is like sending him to death."

"How is it possible, what kind of firearms are used in Minggou's hands, their range is farther than ours, and the bullets are much more powerful, there is no way to fight this battle, withdraw quickly."

With a shout in his mouth, some of the Liukou soldiers began to retreat, and Li crossed his waist with a wave of his knife, cutting off more than a dozen heads in a row.

"Resist it for me, whoever dares to retreat again, the overseer team will kill me."

"Yes"

The overseers agreed, raised their swords one after another, and were ready to kill the retreating Rogue Firearms Battalion soldiers, while Li Guo turned his horse's head and ran quickly towards the hillside where Li Zicheng was.

"The emperor is leaving, the firearms battalion can't stop the attack of the Ming dog at all, and it will be too late if you don't leave."

Li Ziyuan had always been very confident in this attack on the Jingshi, and he had barely encountered decent resistance along the way, but since he had climbed the hill, he had found that something was wrong.

The number of his own troops far exceeded that of the Ming army, but the combat effectiveness of today's Ming army is too fierce, and it is completely different from those Ming troops in the past.

The Dashun army was like ants in front of them, with almost no resistance, especially those cavalry, and after a shock, the Dashun army suffered countless casualties.

Seeing that the army of hundreds of thousands was about to be defeated, Li Zicheng couldn't help but be furious, and he drew his waist knife and was about to go into battle in person.

Li Zicheng is also a person who has been on the battlefield for a long time and has experienced countless disasters, he is really not afraid of death, and he is very unhappy when he sees Li Guo retreating from the battle.

"Li Guo, don't mess with our army's heart, everyone will kill the enemy with me, and there will be a reward for defeating Minggou."

"Don't, the emperor is leaving, it's too late."

Li Guofei dismounted, hugged Li Zicheng and begged, Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance and others saw that their knowledge was not good, and they all stepped forward to comfort:

"Your Majesty, the situation is really not good now, let's retreat first, go back to recruit troops, buy firearms, and then fight Minggou."

"Yes, our defeat today is because our firearms are inferior to theirs, it's not that our tactics and soldiers are not good, and we can make a comeback another day."

Under the persuasion of everyone, Li Zicheng slowly calmed down, he knew that the general trend had gone today, and there were more than 500,000 people and horses, and now there were probably less than 100,000 left, how to fight.

"Okay, let's retire for now."

Seeing that Li Zicheng agreed to withdraw from the army, Li Guo hurriedly got up and got on the horse, and he was ready to cover Li Zicheng desperately to get out.

"I'll stop the Ming army, you protect the emperor and go quickly."

"We are willing to cooperate with General Li, and the emperor will withdraw quickly."

Other soldiers around Li Zicheng stood by Li Guo's side one after another, retreating for Li Zicheng's whole body, and they could all fight each other with death.

Most of the 2,000 firearms soldiers on the opposite side were killed by Qi Jiajun's indiscriminate guns, and the rest were in a mess, Zhu Youzhen waved his sword and ordered:

"General Cunxiao, now you can charge with all your might."

"Obedience"

Li Cunxiao agreed, turned around and gave the attack order to the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry behind him:

"Boys"

"Rush me."

"Whoa"
