The 277 Northern Army will also use it
"Kill. Kill. The Red Turbans rushed over with shouts of killing, and they quickly occupied the first line of positions of the Northern Army. There were not many Northern soldiers left in the positions to resist. Before many Northern Army soldiers could react, they were stabbed to death by the Red Turban Army. Or to be killed by a musket. The bodies were all in the trenches.
"Rush. Rush quickly. Don't hesitate to rush forward. A red turban platoon leader shouted. Then he waved a musket in one hand and grabbed a soldier in the other hand and rushed forward with the other.
There was a serious deterioration in the infantry tactics of the 2nd Brigade, in fact, not only the 2nd Infantry Brigade, but also the 1st, as well as the 3rd, a large number of veterans were diluted, they were either killed, or went to rear hospitals, or were promoted to officers. According to the martial arts, it is rare to pay attention to the combat formation and the way of spreading out the battle. It can be said that they began to attack using the simplest tactics of crowds. Originally, their tactics were not upgraded much, plus a large number of recruits were supplemented, especially the Second Brigade, because they did not supplement the Northern Army and veterans with combat experience like the Xiyuan New Army, but supplemented with a rabble like the Yellow Turban Army, so their infantry tactics began to become simple and rough, but fortunately, their officers took the lead in the charge and played a momentum, as long as there is this momentum, the combat effectiveness of the Red Turban Army is still not to be underestimated.
"Kill. Kill. Kill. Stimulated by the loud shouts of killing, the Red Turban Army quickly rushed into the second line of defense of the Northern Army, and the third line of defense was their target, the wheat pile, which seemed to be not far away.
"Kill. Bang bang. Bang. Bang. Kill. Burst. Yes. "The first to engage were the musketeers of the Red Turbans, who jumped into the trenches with swift musket fire. The musketeers who shot at close range were powerful, and the armor of the Northern Army could not protect them at all, and many people were defeated, although the tactics of the Red Turban Army were not upgraded much, but they still had their own characteristics in their tactics, for example, the Red Turban Army realized the advantages of their muskets, so when they were in front. It's all musketeers. Of course. The musketeer also has his own danger of keeping the charge in a state of charge, that is, the musket cannot be shot, because it is an arquebus, the charge may not be carried out in the run, *** may be scattered, and the most terrible thing is that the arquebus, the musketeer must always pay attention to whether his arquebus is still burning, if it does not burn, the situation will be very unfavorable to them. This is very likely to happen. So. When charging, they must pay attention to the condition of the fire rope, and once extinguished, they must be lit as soon as possible.
It can be said that this weakness of the arquebus still brought great trouble to the Red Turban Army.
"Kill." The musketeers were followed by pikemen, or axemen, which were two types of troops extended from the Red Turban Army, and because of the limitations of weapons, the Red Turban Army could only produce simple spears, ge, and halberds. It is a bit difficult to produce such a powerful weapon, and the practicality is not too strong, even if there is. Few soldiers in the Red Turbans would use such weapons. Unless it's from there, this weapon is inferior to a spear to them. Among the spearmen there are also axemen. The knives were mainly captured by officers and soldiers. The Red Turbans do not produce such weapons because of the waste of iron. More process time requirements and stronger technology. The production capacity of the Red Turban Army simply could not carry out such large-scale production, so the knives mainly came from seizures.
The axe, which is probably the most heavily armed weapon among the Red Turban soldiers, especially the Yellow Turban soldiers, the musketeers cannot be equipped with weapons such as spears, and some will break the spears. Or directly use the spearhead as its own close weapon, which was an early bayonet. But it's a pity that there are too few broken spears after all, and the Red Turban Army will not have the luxury of breaking a large number of spears to provide such weapons, and the use of broken spears also requires certain fighting skills, and a group of rabble Red Turban Army will not have too many fighting skills. At the very least, they have not been able to improve their combat effectiveness, and most of the officers of the Red Turban Army have such a correct understanding of this, they are too aware of their combat effectiveness level.
Therefore, a weapon with low requirements for fighting skills and can be manufactured on a large scale needs to be manufactured, and the weapon that can make this rabble familiar at once is probably only an axe. Because of this firewood chopping weapon, they will all use. The ax can be made very long, and the technical difficulty is not very great, and it can be equipped on a large scale. On top of that, small axes can be thrown out, and the lethality is there. This is their most critical weapon. The Red Turban Army, armed with axe weapons, will not get much advantage in regular combat, but trench warfare is obviously another matter.
The spear-wielding spearmen had a hard time turning around in the trenches. The halberds of the Northern Army could not exert their combat effectiveness as they should. In such a narrow environment, it is impossible to exert combat effectiveness, and it is unlikely that the axe hand will be able to display too many combat skills.
"Poof." An axe flew into the head of a Northern soldier, who could not be struck in the head. The spearmen control the direction and rush over, but they can still solve most of the problems. That's the advantage they need to notice right now.
Inside the forward command of the 2nd Infantry Brigade.
"Hahaha. Fuck. After this heavy bombardment. I think the Northern Army will definitely not be able to withstand it. Now, in my opinion, the second line of defense of the Northern Army will not be able to withstand such a fierce attack from us. Zhang Li said excitedly.
"Brigade commander. Shall we stabilize the second line of defense? A staff officer said worriedly.
"No, go on the offensive. Don't you see, the formation of the Northern Army is chaotic? Let's go through it with all our might. Occupy the commanding heights of the wheat pile, I see. At lunchtime, the artillery can open fire and attack," Zhang Li said optimistically.
"Yes, sir." The staff officer replied.
"But you're right, the second line of defense is also very important to us, order the second battalion to follow up and stabilize the position, and the first battalion will continue to attack and take the commanding heights." Zhang Li accepted the advice of the staff officer. The offensive went well. At the very least, everything is under the control of the Red Turbans, which is a situation that no one else can imagine.
Wheat heaps on the commanding heights. Cao Cao took the binoculars to check on the situation of the Red Turban Army, and their condition put all of them under a tremendous pressure, which made them all suffocate a little.
"The attack of the Red Turban Army is still very sharp." One Sima said. The Northern Army will not call the Red Turban Army the Red Turban Thieves, because they know that the Yellow Turban Army is the thief, they are all a group of rabble, but the Red Turban Army is not, their army is disciplined, strong combat effectiveness, plus firearms and equipment, combat effectiveness is no longer below them, if they meet veterans, their situation will become even worse. If you really underestimate the other party, you are the only one who is unlucky.
"yes. It is said that the 2nd Infantry Brigade was supplemented by some Yellow Turban soldiers, whom we had fought before. Their situation, we still know, they simply cannot fight us. But now, you see. They actually took the initiative to attack. The combat effectiveness does not seem to be weak. Cao Cao said.
"Yes, General, but General, they don't seem to have the consciousness to stay, it seems that they are going to kill us in one go." Sima said worriedly.
"Hmm. Is something ready? Cao Cao asked.
"It's ready. Ready to go into battle. Sima said.
"Then wait for them to come." Cao Cao looked at the charging Red Turban soldiers and said.
"Rush. Come on. Chen Dajiao led the charge. The second battalion rushed over quickly. Their goal is to secure the second line of defense.
"Hurry up, little fart. Hurry up, keep up, if our second battalion slows down, there will be nothing. Chen Dajia shouted loudly.
"Yes, sir." The little fart quickened his pace, and many people were running fast.
"Rush. Kill. "There were a lot of shouts and killings in front, but it was a pity that the second battalion could only attack the second line of defense, otherwise, they could have established greater military achievements.
"Boom. Rumble. Just as Chen Dajia jumped into the trench, an explosion came out, and the direction came from the wheat pile, and Chen Dajia thought that the first battalion had succeeded. That's too fast. This made Chen Dajia feel a little surprised. Still, he got up, carefully pulled the binoculars out of his pocket, and checked the situation ahead. The smoke from the explosion was everywhere, and for a moment it was not clear what kind of situation was in front of them, but soon, they found out. What's the problem? A steep slope was deliberately dug out of the positions of the Northern Army. And underneath is a trench. The Red Turban soldiers jumped into the trenches to attack, but the Northern Army was condescending, and they only had to leave their modified ** bags. They were wrapped into a spherical shape. Then throw it down.
"Boom. Rumble. "Explosions continued in the trenches, and a large number of Red Turban soldiers were killed.
"Fuck." Chen Dajiao scolded loudly. They never imagined that the other party would use such a method to deal with them in such a situation.
"Sir. Sir. The little fart also saw such a scene.
"From the second battalion, follow me, rush over, and help the first battalion to break the siege. Fast. Chen Dajiao hurriedly rushed out with his weapon.
"Rush." Some soldiers of the second battalion followed. Such a defense, they never thought that the Red Turban Army would use ** weapons, and the Northern Army would also, don't forget. Both are learning from each other, and the 2nd Infantry Brigade is still relatively lacking in combat experience, which has led to such a situation.
