But Frederick III reacted a little late, because he was still in the rear of the Bossa coalition, and it would take some time for his heralds to arrive at the front, even on horseback.

Then, taking advantage of this opportunity, many of the farmers who were at the forefront of the march, after hearing the shouts of the Marin army, decisively threw away the sacks full of sand and began to gallop in both directions......

It just so happened that the infantry of the Bossa coalition who were watching over these farmers were at the back of the tens of thousands of peasants. In the face of the farmers in the back, they may be able to stop them. However, in the face of the front row of farmers separated by many people, they had nothing to do......

However, these farmers ran very chaotically, and some of them actually ran straight forward. At this time, Schwartz simply ordered to stop shooting, but let the soldiers command with shouts:

"Don't run forward, don't run forward! Run in both directions! If you go any further, you'll shoot! ”

Schwartz feared that the enemy would take advantage of the peasants who were running forward and follow him to fill the trenches. Therefore, a stern warning was issued to those farmers who ran around.

But at this time, those farmers have long been in chaos, who cares about Schwarz's warning? They still ran around as they could......

Schwartz wouldn't tolerate them messing around, and it wouldn't be good if the enemy took advantage of the situation. So, gritting his teeth, he ordered:

"First Platoon Musketeers, aim and shoot the farmers who are running forward!"

So, the musketeers did as they were ordered, raised their guns, aimed at the farmers who rushed into the distance of 40 yards, and pulled the trigger...... The fire rope, driven by the trigger, went straight down, entered the medicine pool, and the ignition was successful......

"Smack-"

"Smack-smack-"

"Bang-bang-bang-"

Bursts of irregular gunfire rang out, and the hundreds of farmers who had run close to Marin's army were shot and fell to the ground......

This hand can frighten the farmers who run around. In the face of the miserable howls of the farmers who fell to the ground, the farmers who ran around finally reacted and no longer dared to run forward......

So, most of the farmers sensibly chose to run parallel to the sides. However, a small number of farmers with poor brains, probably over-frightened, chose to run backwards to avoid the "terrible" musketeers......

Looking at these farmers running around, Marin also had a headache. Thankfully, Schwartz reacted quickly and stopped them from running around. Otherwise, these farmers who are running around will really run in front of their own army.

Although there were two trenches, these running farmers did not have a chance to attack their own army. However, when they all ran to the front, they would block the view of the musketeers. Therefore, Schwartz ordered the musketeers to make an example of the monkeys, which was very correct.

"Huh? It seems that the opposing army's army has no blockage similar to our army's trenches, and it does not even insert oblique wooden stakes...... If...... It would be nice to have these peasants charge the enemy line......" Marin suddenly thought.

Unfortunately, it's just a matter of thinking. After all, the trench dug by Marin, although it resisted the enemy, also restrained himself. As for why you don't use Yu Dayou's chariot? Because the main task of Marin's main force this time is to drag the enemy, not to defeat him. Therefore, those Yu Dayou wheelbarrows simply did not launch Lübeck City. It's Woolf. Reinforcements from Esbrand and Saqqara prepared quite a few of these cars.

At this time, the chaos of the tens of thousands of farmers in the middle of the battlefield continued. Although, the order of Frederick III was conveyed, but it was useless. Because, the more than 2,000 Bossa coalition infantry who supervised the farmers could only look at the farmers in the back, and they could not reach the farmers in front......

Even if you want to kill the fleeing farmers in front, you'll have to go through the thousands of farmers behind, right? Who let the soldiers who were in charge of the overseers stand behind the tens of thousands of peasants in order to guard against the fire of muskets......

As a result, the tens of thousands of farmers in the middle of the battlefield appeared in two completely different states - the farmers in front, because the soldiers of the Bossa coalition army who supervised them behind could not reach them, so they boldly put down the sacks containing dirt and began to run for their lives to the left and right. However, the Bossa coalition soldiers who were supervising them had nothing to do with them......

At the same time, the thousands of men behind the tens of thousands of peasants did not dare to move because they were threatened by the swords and guns of the two thousand soldiers of the Bossa coalition army, and maintained good discipline.

In the end, the peasants in front, about seventeen or eight hundred people, managed to escape to the flanks of Marin's army. The Bossa coalition had sent some cavalry to chase them, but they were all thighed by Marin's musketeers.

Although there were many Brandenburg and Saxon hoplite knights, no matter how thick the armor was, they could only flee in the face of the East Frisian musketeers who wielded Mushkert muskets. If you are hit by 50 grams of lead bullet, you will either be killed or injured. In the face of such heavy projectiles, the resistance of plate armor is also very weak......

However, the brains of these ancient farmers are probably not very good. Obviously, two or three thousand peasants ran from the front of the formation to the sides, and their own people also gave reminders. However, there were still seven or eight hundred men, although they ran out of the battlefield from the middle, but when they reached both sides, they actually stupidly ran back to the side of the Bossa coalition army......

Marin put down the binoculars and said helplessly:

"Doomed to the fate of cannon fodder, it's not that I refuse to help, it's your own life that will be sent to death......"

In the rear of the coalition forces of Bossa, Frederick III also saw problems on the battlefield. After seeing most of the people in the front row of tens of thousands of farmers running away, Frederick III suddenly came to his senses:

"It turns out that even if you force the farmer to fill the hole, you can't go to too many farmers at once!"

This time, the Bossa coalition army is more farmers. It seems that there is a lot of cannon fodder. But in fact, under the loud reminder of the soldiers under Marin, these captured farmers may not be willing to be cannon fodder......

Frederick III then made a quick decision to order the overseer's soldiers to retreat with the remaining few thousand men and to a safe distance......

"Why did you remove these farmers? Lord Frederick, have you given up on filling in the two pits of the enemy? Joakim I asked, puzzled.

"No, Joakim, I've just discovered that it's not necessarily a good thing to throw too many farmers into battle at once. Because, the troops in charge of supervision can't control the farmers who are too far in the front row. ”

"Therefore, I intend to divide the remaining 7,000 men into three waves, each with more than 2,000 peasants, followed by 500 soldiers. In this case, there is no possibility that it will be too late to capture the escaped people. Just now, you saw it too—most of the farmers who were too far away from the overseers had run away......"

Choakim I thought back to the situation just now, and nodded as well:

"That's true, then, let's go in batches......"
