"Up! Hurry up! Outside the city gate, Han Yinian shouted loudly at the soldiers who swarmed out.

In order to chase down the chaotic people who fled in front of them, and in order to make meritorious contributions, nearly 1,000 people were dispatched by the entire Haifeng Thousand Households, and the remaining more than 100 people who stayed behind were unwilling, so they could only watch their colleagues chase and kill the chaotic people and make meritorious contributions.

One ran in front, the other pursued behind, and the vanguard battalion deliberately slowed down the speed of escape, and the distance between the two armies had been shortened from three hundred meters to less than two hundred and fifty meters.

During the pursuit, the Ming soldiers of the Haifeng Qianhu Office did not notice that another group of "chaotic people" appeared in front of the "chaotic people", and when the two "chaotic people" were about to touch, the vanguard battalion quickly divided into two and circled to the left and right sides, highlighting the firearms company.

"Line up!"

Shi Tao, the commander of the firearms company, gave an order, and the firearms company quickly stood in three horizontal formations, each with 40 people, leaving at least one gap between the two, and aiming the tiger head gun at the Ming soldiers who rushed over.

However, the three artillery groups in the firearms company were not prepared for battle, and the KPA did not have much gunpowder reserves, and the cost of firing a single fire from a solid tiger head gun at a long distance was far less than that of the tiger head gun to kill and injure the enemy.

The sudden change of "chaotic people" Qianhu Han Yinian was a little confused, isn't it a group of chaotic people? How did a team of enemies appear in the same clothes, and they seemed to have firearms in their hands.

Firebolt, Han Yinian naturally knows, the range is farther than the bow and arrow, but the accuracy and shooting frequency cannot be compared with the bow and arrow, the appearance of a team of firecrackers in the enemy did not make Han Yinian afraid, on the contrary, Han Yinian is very excited now, the enemy is not just as simple as the chaotic people, and it is definitely a great achievement to encircle and suppress such a strong enemy.

"Rush! Rush! Kill the enemy leader, the official will be promoted to one level, and the reward will be 100 taels of silver! Han Yinian shouted loudly at his corporaries.

Inspired by the words of the Thousand Households' promotion and fortune, the Ming sergeant charged faster, and in the blink of an eye, the Ming sergeant at the forefront was less than two hundred meters away from the front of the musket team.

"First column, fire!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Forty tiger head guns fired forty rounds of devouring lead bullets at the oncoming Ming soldiers, and under such a dense formation of the Ming soldiers, more than 30 people were hit in an instant, most of them were severely injured, not far from death, and the remaining half were also incapacitated.

In this era, if you are hit by a lead bullet, even if you don't die on the spot, the chance of survival is very small.

This was not the end of the story, the first column of soldiers of the firearms company opened fire, quickly walked behind the third column of soldiers, and began to reload their tiger head guns with gunpowder and lead bullets.

After the first column of fighters left the front of the second column of soldiers, Shi Tao immediately continued to shout: "Second column, fire!" ”

Another forty lead bullets were shot out, and in the blink of an eye, more than thirty people were hit, and when all three lead bullets were given to the Ming soldiers who rushed over in ten seconds, they had already fallen on the battlefield by about 100 Ming soldiers, and they didn't know whether they were alive or dead.

There are more than 1,100 soldiers in Haifeng's 1,000 households, and nearly 1,000 soldiers rushed out of the city to pursue the "chaotic people." Now, after only 10 seconds, more than one-tenth of their combat strength has been lost.

Seeing the colleagues in front of them fall to the ground, wailing miserably, the Ming soldiers were frightened, and unconsciously slowed down the pace of the charge.

With so many subordinates being shot and killed by that firecracker, Qianhu Han Yinian was shocked, he didn't expect the enemy's firecracker to have such great power, and he was also glad that he didn't rush ahead.

"Fortunately, the enemy has fewer firearms, if there are more firearms, I am afraid that this battle will be defeated, the enemy is strong, and only by destroying the enemy can we get more credit."

Looking at the firecrackers who were loading ammunition, Han Yinian was sure in his heart, the firecrackers were powerful, but the number was small, and the loading time was long, as long as he hurried up and rushed forward, the enemy would lose.

"The rebels are loading the firearms with ammunition, rush quickly, behead one person and reward five taels of silver, behead five people and promote the officer to one level, and behead the leader of the rebels to be promoted to three levels and reward a thousand taels of silver." Han Yinian shouted at his subordinates.

With even more generous rewards, the Ming soldiers, who were already afraid, suddenly increased their morale and strode towards the People's Army.

However, the morale of the Ming army had just risen, and the next moment, another wave of lead bullets flew over, hitting more than thirty Ming soldiers who rushed to the front.

"Why did the enemy fire again so quickly?" A Ming sergeant who had been shot in the chest by a lead bullet fell to the ground forever with doubts.

The Ming sergeant who was hit by lead bullet was puzzled, the Ming soldier who saw his colleague hit by lead bullet was also puzzled, and Han Yinian and the other commanders of Haifeng Qianhu were puzzled.

"Why did the rebels' firecrackers fire again so quickly?"

The main firearm used by the Ming army is the bird gun, which has a range of 100 meters to 150 meters, because it is a smoothbore gun, the accuracy of hitting is not high, and the most important thing is that the rate of fire of the bird gun is very slow, and it can only be fired once or twice a minute.

This is the Ming army's impression of the firearms, and even in the Ming army's charging team, there are nearly 100 people holding all kinds of firearms, they think that the people's army's firearms are similar to theirs, even if the range is longer and the accuracy of hitting is higher, the speed of loading ammunition will not be fast.

However, the tiger head gun used by the KPA is a front-loading flintlock rifled gun, which has a killing distance of more than 750 meters, and can ensure accurate hits within 350 meters, and the soldiers of the KPA firearms unit who are skilled in using tiger head guns can fire four times a minute.

You must know that the firearms company uses a three-stage shooting, and it can fire a row of lead bullets almost every five seconds, and the firing frequency is far from being comparable to that of birds.

For every 10 meters of distance between the Ming army and the People's Army, about 30 people will lose their combat effectiveness, and when the soldiers at the forefront of the Ming army are only 80 meters away from the People's Army, the Ming army has already lost a quarter of its combat effectiveness, and the archers behind the Ming army are far from being within range.

Under the threat of death, the promotion and wealth incentive of the thousand households has been irretrievable The morale of the Ming army, rushing to death fast, the Ming soldiers who rushed to the front did not dare to continue to rush forward, some of the Ming soldiers were running to both sides, and some of the Ming soldiers turned around and ran to the back, and suddenly the Ming army was mixed into a group, and it was useless for the commanders to shout.

The firearms company of the People's Army continued to fire, and on both flanks of the firearms company, the soldiers who first boarded the camp stood at the forefront, and behind them were the soldiers of the cold weapons unit in a line.

The loss of a quarter of the combat strength was defeated, and the speed of the rout of the Ming army surprised Hu Zhuang very much, Hu Zhuang did not miss this opportunity, and immediately issued an order to the cold weapon troops: "Charge!" ”

"Kill! Kill! ”

The soldiers of the pioneer battalion armed with shields, broadswords or axes rushed forward first, and hundreds of soldiers of the cold-armed troops armed with spears followed closely behind them, and the front position of the firearms company was still reserved for the firearms company, and rows of lead bullets were fired, sweeping down rows and rows of enemies.
