Lu Yuan also rushed towards these bandits with the officers and soldiers of the mighty army.

The entire mighty army is advancing rapidly in a typical mandarin duck formation.

The sword and shield bearers were in front, followed by the firearms and spearmen.

One line at a time, maintaining a consistent pace of charge.

The field officers and men of the first platoon of the mighty army came to a halt when they were about 150 paces away from the bandits.

According to the experience of the mighty army in peacetime firearms training, this distance is about to enter the effective range of flintlock guns.

And now the firearms of the mighty army will begin to prepare for the firing process.

The first step is to reload.

The firearms men began to remove the cartridges from the paper shells and press the pellets into the barrels.

The second step is to plug the bullets.

The firearms bearers put a small piece of paper into the barrel of the gun, then pulled out the strip and stuffed the bullet into the bottom of the barrel along with the piece of paper.

One of the pieces of paper is to prevent the projectile from slipping.

The third step is firing.

The firearms bearers bring the hammer to the firing position.

The fourth step is the charge.

The amount of gunpowder in the cartridge is prepared in advance and is enough for one launch, so the firearm does not need to estimate how much gunpowder to pour into the powder pool on the spot, but directly opens the spring and pours the remaining gunpowder into the powder pool.

This is the prototype of the bullet in later generations.

Operating the flintlock pistol, the field firearms of the mighty army don't know how many times they have practiced, and many times they sleep in the operation of this, so they are very skilled, even if the corpses in front of them are all over the field, they are also calm.

Even if a few firearms players were a little flustered, they could rely on instinct and habitually operate the entire process of preparing the flintlock pistol to fire.

The mounted bandits brandished broadswords rushed towards the mighty army.

They did not understand why these officers and soldiers suddenly stopped in front, and then, thinking that these officers and soldiers were about to escape, they rushed directly at an accelerated speed.

These bandits had murderous faces, bared their teeth, brandished large knives, and screamed.

And behind them were a large group of mountain bandits, these mountain bandits all relied on these desperate bandits to boost their morale, even if the mighty army in front of them had already raised their firearms, they dared to charge.

Because the corruption of officials at the end of the Ming Dynasty has led to a significant decline in the quality of firearm production.

The firearms of many officers and men, especially those of officers and men in the guard posts, could not be used at all.

These bandits also had no fear of firearms, not to mention that the firearms of the officers and soldiers at this time were still more than 100 steps away from them.

One of the bandits who rushed to the front raised a strong bow and put a heavy arrow directly on the string, ready to shoot at the chief flag officer among the officers and soldiers in front when he rushed closer.

That chief flag officer was Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan stood in the middle of the team, at this time he regained his courage, and only looked coldly at these fierce bandits like jackals and beasts, waiting for the moment when the mighty army and these bandits would come to confront.

"The first team is ready!"

"Team 2 is ready!"

"The third team is ready!"

……

One after another, various teams were conveying the results of the flintlock shooting preparations to Uncle Fei in front of Lu Yuan.

The reloading and firing of flintlock pistols can generally reach three to four rounds a minute, and in the later period of history, flintlock pistols can reach five rounds a minute after improvement and reinforcement of soldiers' training.

At this time, even if the mighty army may be a little flustered for the first time, it can still complete the reloading operation in a very short time.

When the first team was ready, Uncle Fei had already ordered to shoot.

Crackling!

Crackling!

Crackling!

A series of fried bean-like sounds rang out.

Billowing white smoke rose from the hands of the mighty firearms.

And the sound didn't stop.

After the first team finished shooting, they immediately stepped back, and the second team made up and started shooting.

After the second team has finished a round of shooting, the third team comes forward and pulls the trigger to shoot.

Then, the first team was now loaded and shooting.

At this time, Zhou Laojiu, like other firearms hands, mechanically and numbly completed the loading action, and then raised his gun to shoot.

When he saw that he had opened the head of a mountain bandit, he chuckled in his heart.

But the next moment, he was even more indifferent because of this, and even became excited because of this, and kept loading bullets and shooting, as if he was the only one in the whole world and Uncle Fei's instructions.

The bandit archer, who had rushed to the front, was rushing when he saw a bloody hole in his stomach, which made him stunned.

But before the bandit could scream, he was shot again.

Then he fell to the ground directly with his war horses.

The flintlock pistols that didn't need to be lit were too fast, and the effective range was much longer than that of the birds, and these bandits didn't have several layers of heavy armor with steel plates, and a single shot was basically a gut-piercing rot.

Eight of the dozen leading bandits died on the spot, and only five began to run back.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan ordered the mighty army to pursue and advance, and when he encountered the outdated mountain bandits, he was hacked to death by the sword and shield hand.

If there is a fierce person who is not afraid of death and wants to resist, and takes advantage of the sword and shield hand to cut down other mountain bandits and take the opportunity to break the formation between the sword and shield hands, the spearmen will immediately stab the spears out, forming a spear forest, making the entire mighty army like a hedgehog, turning all the mountain bandits close to the mighty army into corpses.

Yue Changgui was a sword and shield bearer, and he ran at the forefront with his own army.

At this time, he was like a cheetah, staring at these mountain bandits who were running or desperate with cold eyes, when a mountain bandit simply screamed and raised a knife to cut at the firearm Zhou Laojiu because he couldn't run, he directly raised his shield to block Zhou Laojiu first, and then stabbed the mountain bandit in the stomach, struggled to stir it, pulled out the knife, and continued to rush forward despite the blood on his face.

And at this time.

Zhou Laojiu was frightened into a cold sweat by the mountain bandit who simply slashed at him, but he still quickly raised his gun and aimed at a mountain bandit who was rushing towards the spearman Xiong Zhiyuan with a spear.

Bang!

Zhou Laojiu missed and missed the mountain bandit.

Yu Sanshui, the firearm who followed behind, immediately made up for it and fired a shot, hitting the mountain bandit in the foot, causing the mountain bandit to jump up.

Then Xiong Zhiyuan himself stabbed a spear out and stabbed the mountain bandit directly in the neck.

Lu Yuan had been following the entire mighty army forward, and when he hadn't taken a few steps, he saw a corpse lying in front of him, and his head didn't know where it had gone, but at this time, he didn't have time to be disgusted, and he only instinctively rushed over.

When Lu Yuan saw a mountain bandit who was still moving on the ground, Lu Yuan was struggling with whether to end his life.

At this time, a field soldier sword and shield man directly stabbed the mountain bandit in the back, and then another sword and shield hand stabbed in.

Lu Yuan was stunned at the time, he didn't know if his usual strict training had achieved the effect, so that these field soldiers really showed a huge disregard for life at this moment, and mechanically harvested the lives of these mountain bandits.

It didn't take long.

Lu Yuan found that he seemed to have been caught by someone, and when he looked down, he saw that it was a mountain bandit with a bloody face.

I don't know if it was affected by the entire battlefield environment or if he was afraid of being caught like this, Lu Yuan eagerly slashed the sword down and cut off this hand on the spot!

Looking at the severed hand spread on the ground, Lu Yuan almost threw it out, but he still swallowed it back, and then hysterically inserted the sword in his hand into the chest of the mountain bandit!

He's a manager, he can't afford to lose his temper.

This is one blood?

Lu Yuan suddenly had such an idea in his heart, but he also seemed to be indifferent to life, when he saw a crazy mountain bandit rushing over to attack Shen Guangzu, he cut off the head of the mountain bandit with a sword without thinking about it, and then watched the headless mountain bandit fall to the ground in front of him.

And Shen Guangzu's grateful gaze made Lu Yuan even more proud of saving his comrades, and couldn't help laughing because of this.
