vs 489 Decisive battle against Thoreau
Ma Da Dan was a powerful country in Southeast Asia at that time, and it even dared to attack the former Batavia Hongmaofan, and Hongmaofan still greeted them with a smile.
Without it, there are too few red-haired fans, and even if they are given land, they can't swallow it.
The southeast province has more people, more ships, more guns, and more land, the better.
Once the roads have been built and the forts have been built, it is even more difficult to get them to retreat.
Moreover, the Chinese are generally equipped with flintlock pistols, and even the most brave natives have to kneel after eating dummy bullets!
The sea area of the horse is blocked, and there is no foreign aid.
Internally, the resistance is ineffective, and people continue to die.
Finally, the two armies started a battle in Solo, the old capital of the country of Thoreau.
The king of 10,000 people cobbled together a full 80,000 people, and for this battle, the entire horse basketball was mobilized, from the twelve-year-old child to the eighty-year-old man, all rushed to the battlefield, this is the battle of the country!
He needs this victory so badly, the war with the Southeast Province has been at a disadvantage so far, and it must be inspired by the victory.
There were no iron tools, and many people went into battle with wooden sticks.
They set up a formation outside the city to deal with Zhang Shouyun's army brigade in the southeast province and a team of nearly 7,000 people from the Imperial Army.
On the day of the war, the green mountains and rivers were green, the sun was shining, and the climate on the island of Java was always very good.
The horses and baskets were carried with flags like clouds, swords and spears, and more than 100 phalanxes were established, each with 500 people, which looked boundless.
The king of 10,000 people gave an order: "In today's battle, there is no advance or retreat, stop advancing when you kill all the enemies, and those who dare not fight when the enemy are killed, all will be killed!" ”
Once defeated, the horse will be slumped, and there will be a way out only if you win!
He sent officers on horseback and armed with swords to the various units to supervise the battle.
As soon as the battle began, in the sound of the thick horns, the terrifying phalanxes of horses and baskets rushed straight to the ground, without a moment of pause, vowing to flood the southeast army with a sea of people.
Then they bumped into each other in front of the trenches and horse-repellent fortifications of the Southeastern Army, and broke the blood!
Zhang Shouyun laid out the battle line for three regiments in parallel, all the soldiers were armed to the teeth, one person had at least four guns, and one round could fire four shots.
80,000 natives?
After three rounds of gunfire, 84,000 bullets were fired!
Behind the battle line, there were baskets of grenades, large bombs, and artillery pieces!
The Chinese prepared an unknown number of shotguns, waiting to harvest the lives of the natives.
At this time, deep inland, so many military supplies were laboriously transported by the military industry using donkeys and mules.
During the expedition to Southeast Asia, there were few cavalry troops, not many horses, and the most used were donkeys and mules, which were brought by the Chinese from the distant mainland, and they were strong, adaptable, easy to raise, not easy to get sick, and had a gentle temperament, worked hard, and became the right-hand man of the Chinese!
They didn't need to run fast to keep up with the marching troops, and with heavy burdens, donkeys and mules conquered Southeast Asia with humans.
They can eat grass as a staple food, at most add some bean cakes, not like war horses, if you don't give them more bean cakes, the horse will lose fat and can't run.
The province of Southeast China collects a large number of donkeys on the mainland, and has also established several breeding centers in Taiwan and Java to breed two types of livestock.
When using them, they were covered with ponchos during the day to prevent rain, and at night they were given a layer of anti-mosquito paint when camping, and later, donkeys and mules evolved to survive in mosquito-ridden places without paint, and horses could not be counted on!
Donkeys and mules are more used than horses, and some real commanders would rather have more donkeys and mules than horses, and many officers travel on donkeys, resulting in the Southeast Army being ridiculed by the Navy as a "donkey army!" ”
Muskets roared, and a dense stream of bullets carried a dead wind, sweeping away a large area of horses and basketmen.
Grenades flew and exploded over the heads of the natives.
Based on the previous test firing, the artillery officers asked the soldiers to adjust the angle of the artillery, load the shells, and fire the guns immediately after receiving the order.
The rumbling cannons rang out, and the scattered bullets made the earth bloom with flowers of death, and the bright red colors rendered the earth.
The lethality of the shotgun was so powerful that the natives were scattered, and the wolves howled, and they were swept down in droves.
The natives stepped forward numbly, dead and pulled down.
The sound of gunfire was all over the ears, and the eyes were bright red.
The King of Ten Thousand People, who was standing on the high platform and watching the battle, had a grim face, and the generals and officials next to him were speechless.
In other words, when dealing with the enemy's strong position, it will definitely use roundabout means, copy its rear path, flank the left and right, and surround the enemy from all directions.
But the commanders who played the basket did not dare, their troops would be scattered if they were not supervised, and even if they went to the front of the position, when the cannon sounded, those troops who had reached the rear of the enemy would flee in confusion and would be shot at if they did not rush a hundred meters in front of the formation, and they would not last long and would break up.
The reasons are, first, that they have not undergone firm training, like the belief of the Southeast Army, which is extremely strong, even if they fight to the last person, they have to find a way to complete the task, and they are shot in a face-to-face queue without changing their faces, and the natives are inferior; The second is that the horse basket people are scared, they are afraid of the guns and bullets of the Southeast Army, and they call the guns and bullets of the Southeast Army with "the curse of Mazu" in awe!
Lead bullets, which deform after being hit into the human body, are dummy bullets.
It leads to blood poisoning and high fever, and the indigenous people do not have the military medical system of the Southeast Province, and the people of the Southeast Province are not even afraid of poisonous arrows!
However, it doesn't matter how many people die, the king of ten thousand people wants victory, he ruthlessly drove the phalanx forward, filled the trench five meters deep and three meters wide with his flesh and blood, and used his fallen body to level the horse, constantly advancing, advancing!
The Southeastern Army kept shooting, thanks to the use of muskets and artillery, and if they used knives to kill, they were afraid that they would be soft!
Commander Zhang Shouyun did not panic, shrank the length of the battle line, withdrew to the second line of defense, which was also a trench five meters deep and three meters wide, and opened fire again.
If there is a drone observing the battlefield, the video taken back can see the dead horses and basketball people piled up into a long wall of human flesh!
The sound of gunfire rang out again intensively, "fire...... ......On the chaotic battlefield, the officers roared hoarsely, with loud noises, and shotguns erupted, like iron brushes, sweeping down the horses and baskets that had been beaten by muskets.
The white smoke cleared, and the musketeers were surprised to find countless sturdy horsemen rushing towards them without fear of death, facing the muzzles of their guns.
Especially on the right flank of the defensive line, the commander of the Second Regiment of the Imperial Allied Army, Kigami Toyoshiro, was frightened to see the horses and baskets coming, and fought with the Second Regiment.
"The enemy has invested a lot of elite troops!"
"They broke through the defense line of the second regiment of the Imperial Concord Army!"
The news was reported to Zhang Shouyun urgently, which made people's hearts heavy for a while.
