Chapter 203: Lure Tactics
It was too late, but it was fast, a total of more than five miles, and at the speed of cavalry, it would soon rush to the front.
The queue is very neat, each team is in a row, a hundred horsemen, the road is not wide, and the three thousand cavalry stretches for nearly a mile, and the momentum is magnificent!
Three thousand war horses, the sound of horses' hooves, the earth shook, deafening, and in the blink of an eye, the front row rushed to a hundred meters away......
"Woohoo! Woohoo! Woohoo! ……”
The gun went off.
As a commander on the side of the team slashed with a saber, three hundred wolf soldiers squatted in lunges, and the second row of Ming troops hiding behind them, a full five hundred people, was standing upright with muskets......
At the sound of an order, the flintlock muskets in the hands of the five hundred soldiers opened fire in unison, and the sound of the salvo of five hundred muskets was equally deafening......
Immediately after that, there is the third row...... Fourth Row ...... The cycle doesn't stop!
It's a triple hit!
Since the replacement of the new flintlock pistol, Jiao Lian divided the 3,000 well-trained musketeers into two, with 1,500 men in each team, and fired in three rows during the battle, changing the original six-stage fire to a three-stage shot.
Compared with the previous arquebus, this flintlock pistol, due to the use of fixed mini bullets packaged in paper shells, can not only calmly aim, greatly increase the accuracy of shooting, because the operation steps are simpler, the firing speed is greatly accelerated, from the original firing once in more than two minutes, it has increased to generally less than a minute to firing once, so only three rows of soldiers are needed, and its firepower density is enough.
As for the three hundred wolf soldiers, well......
This is Jiao Lian's personal bodyguard to protect these precious musketeers!
There are 600 of them, and they are also divided into two, which is an original move that Jiao Lian has figured out on the basis of the experience of his predecessors.
Of course, only when dealing with cavalry, the wolf soldiers can really play a role, against the charge of the foot soldiers, not to mention that with the impact speed of the foot soldiers, they can't get close to the musketeers, even if a few fish dare to pounce on them...... The flintlock pistol can also be loaded with a bayonet!
Of course, today, the main task of these wolf soldiers is to deliberately show the enemy's weakness and play a role in luring.
Why use a wolf? I'm so afraid that your cavalry will bully the infantry, I'll block me, I'll block it! Kamao North Nose! Here you go!
Yes, all this, it is an illusion, it is deliberate!
It's all in Jiao Lian's calculations!
As the most experienced cavalry commander in Nanming at that time, Jiao Lian personally led the army to assault in every battle before, and was especially good at fighting cavalry raids and playing decapitation actions.
Of course, he knows how to break through the enemy's cavalry formation!
In addition to the cavalry hedging against the enemy, the most effective way to defeat the enemy is these new musketeers.
Since Lin Xiao looked up to him so much, gave him such a firearm against the sky, and helped him train him in new combat methods, how could he destroy the heavens!
In order to lure the Qing army to take the initiative, Jiao Lian used his brains this time......
His tactical instincts were extremely keen, and he was always able to seize the fighter plane that directly hit the Qing army's vital points, and the half-crossing attack during the first surprise attack could be said to take advantage of his unpreparedness, relying on a gust of wind to come and go, killing him by surprise, and the army's morale was shaken......
And in this second encounter, the Qing army must have targeted preparations, which has to rely on scheming.
He was not in a hurry to attack the city, on the one hand, he really needed to build a fortress, and on the other hand, he knew that the Qing generals must be unwilling.
From the north to the south, looking at the battlefield of the whole country, when the strength of the two sides is equal, often only the Qing army pursues and kills the Ming army, and it is rare to be bullied by the Ming army.
suffered a big loss in the first battle, even if the Qing army general is pustuated, he will not swallow this breath easily, when he recovers, he will definitely find a way to get back for a while, right?
Well, then here's a chance for you!
He instructed his subordinates to show a loose appearance, just to lure the Qing army to take the initiative to attack, and then give them a heavy blow, completely extinguishing the thoughts in their hearts!
Yes, all the casualness, all the arrogance, all the carelessness, all on purpose!
Are you not afraid of my horsemen? Well, my cavalrymen dismounted, unsaddled their horses, don't you be greedy? Come or not to fight?
What if the Qing army attacked with all its might, and too many people came, what if they really rushed into the camp, wouldn't it be self-defeating?
Of course, Jiao Lian has a back hand, he is not reckless at all!
In fact, although the barracks had not yet been built, another 1,500 musketeers were lying in ambush in a tent in the large camp that had been erected, ready for a second round of slaughter!
……
Gai Chaoxuan was not stupid, he did not rush to the front, but stopped on the side of the road, brandishing his war knife and shouting, urging his men to gallop forward in waves......
The wolf array, but it needs to be knocked away by people and horses, and it is necessary to fight with human lives!
There will be brave men under the reward!
Some of his subordinates are brave men, he doesn't need to go to death in person, just wait for the front to break through the enemy formation, he leaps forward again, and majestically leads the team to slash and kill.
Well, it's all about the purple sauce......
However, the scene of the person in front of him turning over on his back surprised him!
"Musket, isn't it too late to fire again after a round or two?
Why does this gunshot sound endless?
Could it be that the guns are released in batches?
In that case, only such a musketeer, how many shots can be fired per round?
Wouldn't it be easier for Lao Tzu to rush up with so many cavalry, how could he not rush forward? ”
Just as Gai Chaoxuan was stunned by his puzzled eyes, his poor subordinates had already lost nearly half......
As more and more horses and soldiers lay on the ground in front of them, and when they were about to pile up into a wall of flesh and blood, the galloping rear team had to slow down one after another...... Behind them, more riders are still pouring forward......
When people turn on their backs, they are purple!
The reason why the cavalry charge tactics are not suitable for carrying out in a narrow area is that when the front team is blocked, it must shoot the horses and disperse, and cannot block the road of the rear team, otherwise it will ...... That's how the term rear-end came about.
The front and rear teams collided with each other and huddled together, giving the Ming musketeers a better chance of training.
The maximum range of this gun is 500 yards, and the effective range is about 200 yards, and it is still a bit difficult to shoot a single moving target of about 150 meters, so it is still necessary to rely on platoon gun tactics to have enough lethality.
But right now, the goal is not one, but a lump of ......
This gun is released, one shot is accurate, the gun is bloody, full of a sense of achievement!
You don't need to aim at all!
……
The author is a bit of nonsense, the actual time is not long, and soon, the Qing army and horse team collapsed......
Seeing the gunfire in front of them, the smoke was filled, and behind a wall of flesh and blood, the brothers either fell from their horses one by one, or fell to the ground with their horses......
Escaped?
Jiao Lian's six hundred elite horsemen charged!
These six hundred people are not ordinary cavalry, but Jiao Lian's personal soldiers! All of them are brave people who roll over the head of the knife!
Standing on both sides of the infantry formation, quietly watching the play, seeing that it was now, the pro-soldiers, who had long been itching, saw the collapse of the Qing army, immediately raised their swords, roared and rode their horses forward......
Behind them, fifteen hundred musketeers, clapping their bayonets, also shouted, and rushed forward with the sound of killing...... Whether you can catch up or not, the momentum is a must!
The worst thing was the three hundred wolf soldiers, holding seven or eight pounds of wolf soldiers, closely following the musketeers to charge together, it is not allowed to fall behind, and the shouting of killing in the mouth is also necessary......
Seven or eight pounds is not a problem, the key is that this thing is too long, charging against such a long guy, even if all the strong wolf soldiers are out of breath in less than two miles, tired to death!
