Section 152 Confrontation with Qing Chariots (1)

The soldiers rode their bicycles, and their bikes began to take on simple weight-reducing equipment. Coarse bamboo tube body, stainless steel transmission part.

They are the newly formed ranger unit of Shencheng, and this time Wang Deren led a company to protect Yue Xiaofei and Wang Jingwen to Yanping City. Recently, in order to meet the needs of the war, the Shenzhou Army has reorganized the army, and the establishment of the Marine Corps is as follows: Each regiment is composed of five battalions, including four combat battalions, one comprehensive battalion, one chariot battalion, and two ranger battalions. The establishment of an armored infantry regiment consisted of five battalions per regiment, two tank battalions, two ranger battalions, and one integrated battalion. Let's see the details of the compilation in the future in the Gaiden. A platoon of armored infantry regiments is fifty people, and a platoon of marines is thirty people.

The Ranger's armament is a bronze bolt-crossbow rifle with an effective range of 300 meters and 500 rounds of ammunition, and the pistol is a double-action revolver, which is similar in appearance to early Colt, the bullet is the same as the rifle bullet, and the arrow bullet itself is a low recoil bullet.

Yue Xiaofei's estimate was right, they would definitely meet the Qing army, but what he didn't expect was that they would meet the chariot.

Yue Xiaofei stood on a special platform on the top of the command car, raised his binoculars and looked at the formation of the Qing soldiers. This look stunned him.

The Qing army not only had chariots, but also the tactics they taught the new army, the front row of chariots opened the road, the rear row of cavalry slowly advanced, and when the chariots broke through the enemy formation, the cavalry charged at close range.

"Preparation" stood on the command vehicle with a telescope in hand, about 500 meters away, the Qing army chariot slowly advanced, they were probably sent by Pu Luo to harass the far line, so there were not many of them. About a thousand people, fifteen tanks.

Wang Jingwen was a newcomer to the battle formation, and she was a little panicked, but she knew very well the power of some crossbow guns. Yue Xiaofei regretted a little that he didn't bring the chariot, although he was confident in the combat ability of the rangers, but after all, the enemy also had a chariot. As for why he didn't bring a chariot, it was because Shenzhou City was only more important than his own life in his mind, it was the source of Chinese capitalism, and without it, he Yue Xiaofei was nothing.

The chariots of the Qing army were advancing forward, and thirty meters behind them were the cavalry of the Qing army. Yue Xiaofei scolded "stupid", and saw from the telescope that the chariots of the Qing army were pushed by people, so the speed of the chariots limited the speed of the cavalry, not to mention how such a chariot would defend against the guns and rockets of the rangers here, and the thirty meters were not enough for the cavalry to accelerate.

The infantry set up a defensive line according to Wang Deren's order, and all the bicycle beams had connecting devices. All of the self-contained platoons together form a simple defensive front, and each platoon has a cannon squad, one each of a crossbow and a slingshot grenade launcher (sitting on a chassis running all over the street).

Now the structure is united into a front of nearly 100 meters, but when facing the tank, no matter how excessive the defense line is, it will make people feel that the defense line is too thin.

The Qing soldiers lined up in formation and slowly started to start, getting closer and closer, and had entered the maximum range of the crossbow gun of four hundred meters. The sweat on Wang Deren's head fell, this was the first time he commanded a war, and this was also the first time that there was no chariot that the Shenzhou Army relied on as the main force of the battle, and he always felt a little empty in his heart!

Yue Xiaofei's six-horse-drawn command vehicle not only has a bedroom, but can also be expanded into a command post ten meters long and six meters wide in wartime. A large flag was erected at the top of the command post. The tiny golden five-pointed stars on the blue background joined together to form a huge ring, and in the ring was a golden dragon with the body of a dragon composed of the Great Wall. The soldier also has a large flag in his hand, and in the middle of the red background is a large golden Yue character. The Jurchen clan is just a golden soldier, they are afraid that the Yue family is afraid to the bones, this banner is just Yue Xiaofei's psychological warfare weapon.

"Ready, set" The guns rang out in the platoon.

"Free fire" Wang Deren gave the order loudly. In the continuous firing of gunfire, the chariot did not stand up to the resistance, and still charged forward under the impetus of the soldiers inside. On the contrary, more than 1,000 cavalrymen behind a dozen chariots kept falling, but with the cover of chariots, their casualties were much smaller.

Soon the chariots and the cavalry under their cover were almost a hundred meters away, and the crossbows of the flying gods equipped with each platoon began to fire, laying down a curtain of arrows. The Ranger's Flying Crossbow is the same as it will be on warships in the future. Three people do it, two people provide power, and the person who operates the crossbow in the middle has a clutch pedal under his feet, which controls the left and right rotation, and the rate of fire is increased to about 100 rounds per minute.

However, it could not stop the advance of the Qing army, and soon reached a distance of about eighty meters. At this time, it was obvious that someone had been killed in the chariot, and the front line of the chariot was difficult to maintain due to the uneven speed. At this moment, the hoarse roars of the Qing generals were heard, and it was clear that they were trying to maintain their formation.

"Grenade launcher, ready ...... "To put it bluntly, this grenade launcher is similar to the Xiaofei God Crossbow, and it is also fired in bursts, but the range is shorter, and there are 300 ammunition on reserve.

"Boom" small grenades with bump fuses exploded in a series of enemy cavalry groups, and large groups of cavalry were blown off their horses, or frightened horses were hunched off the battlefield and disappeared.

The cavalry behind the chariot suffered heavy casualties as seen through the telescope, and the Qing army accelerated after a burst of banners, and the cavalry rushed out from behind the chariot, like spears with shields stretched out from the Macedonian phalanx. At a distance of fifty meters, it only takes a few seconds to rush to the bicycle defense line laid by the Rangers here.

The chariot's ranks were in complete disarray, but the remaining 800 or so cavalry rushed out from behind the chariot and soon merged into a torrent. The sound of drumming horses' hooves is getting closer.

The infantry on him was visibly panicked in the face of the oncoming cavalry.

Fortunately, there are also some jumping mines in front of the position, which are named spider mines, so called because there are as many as eight long metal wires extending from it.

As soon as the cavalry of the brigade stepped on the spider mine, the triggered mine jumped straight up five meters and shot down into pieces of porcelain beads.

More than a dozen spider mines buried in front of the battle line cleared up and exploded, clearing the gaps in the cavalry group and causing the entire cavalry group to stagnate for a moment, because no one knew what else would be encountered if they ran any further.

"Directional mines, ready, release!" Wang Deren tried his best to suppress the panic in his heart, and the cavalry group advanced again.
