Looking at the comrades who kept falling to the ground around them, the soldiers of the Crimean Khanate began to go crazy, and the soldiers who were still on their horses began to attack without any targets, slashing in the east and slashing in the west, and the formation began to completely change, but this had no effect on them, the guns continued to shoot non-stop, and the comrades around them continued to decrease.

They have never encountered such a way of fighting, they can't charge on horses, they can't find the enemy with their sabers, their comrades die one by one, and no one knows if the next one is themselves, and now they can only be beaten passively, without the ability to fight back.

When more than 10 minutes had passed, more than 2,000 forward soldiers had lost most of them, and the soldiers of the Crimean Khanate gradually turned from madness to fear, and fear to fear. The formation was completely gone, and there were only three or two soldiers scurrying around, and then they retreated, trying to escape from this terrible, hellish place.

The Ming army would not give them a chance to escape, some soldiers had already communicated along the trenches, and had blocked their way back, dozens of hand-cranked machine guns were waiting for them, not using dense bursts, just a simple short shot made it difficult for them to move an inch. The complex position structure makes it impossible for these soldiers to retreat quickly, the dense bullets make it impossible for them to dodge, death is their only destination, Li Hongji's determination is that none of the vanguard soldiers in this wave will be left, and they will not surrender, all of them will be annihilated, so that the enemy behind them will not be able to figure out the reality here.

Two miles away, Gray III was in a daze, and after more than 2,000 soldiers entered the position, they were scurrying around like a group of fools, only to hear the "crackling" burst of gunfire, as if they could not see the enemy, they could only see that their troops were rapidly decreasing. No one had ever seen such a battle, and Gray III saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart, he was his elite soldier!

There could be no further hesitation, and with the consent of Governor Aishad, 10,000 soldiers of the two armies immediately mounted their horses and charged towards this position, trying to rescue the soldiers trapped in the position, especially those of the same Crimean Khanate, who could not understand why their comrades-in-arms seemed to be fascinated and wandered around, but could not get out.

It's a pity that just before the 10,000 soldiers were about to enter the position, their more than 2,000 comrades in the vanguard had been wiped out, and only the scurrying war horses were left on the position.

The enraged coalition soldiers have lost their minds, and more than 10,000 people have not considered why their comrades will all die so quickly in a short period of time, they want to take revenge immediately and kill all the Ming troops here, but is it as easy as they think?

More than 10,000 coalition soldiers broke into the position, and like their vanguard troops, they soon had to slow down the pace of their advance, the position here was very complicated, the trenches and obstacles were everywhere, the winding roads made it impossible for them to give full play to the advantages of the cavalry, and even the rear team because of the speed was faster than the front, the front soldiers were crowded into chaos, and this was the beginning of their defeat.

The gunfire rang out again after more than 10,000 soldiers entered the position, but this time the gunfire was much more dense than the last time, and the hand-cranked machine guns were no longer only short-point shots, and the short-point shots were used in the densely populated places of the coalition soldiers, and the short-point shots were fired in the less dense places, and the peripheral places were cold gun snipers, and many Ming soldiers moved to their rear along the preset communication trenches again, and more hand-cranked machine guns were erected, and the more than 10,000 coalition soldiers were besieged in the position again, and there was only one way to die waiting for them, They could not withdraw from this position.

Just a tentative attack, the coalition army lost more than 2,000 people, and then the soldiers who rescued them fell into a dead position again in less than half an hour, such a battle made Governor Aishad tremble, the fighting power of the Ming army was too strong, but why did their own soldiers have no power to fight back in the position? Could it be that the Ming army really has any magic? Looking at the somewhat pale Grei III, I don't know whether he was angry or frightened, Governor Ishhad decided to stop the attack first, otherwise the soldiers would soon lose confidence and would not be able to fight.

Could it be that the Ming army is as strong as it seems? Of course, it will not be so strong, but Li Hongji's combat methods and preset positions have allowed them to play a more powerful role.

The position of the Ming army was the annular defensive position of later generations, and the defensive function of this annular defensive position was very perverted. Zhu Youxiao, who came from later generations, naturally knew how perverted the annular defensive position of the US army was on the Korean battlefield, especially when the side with strong firepower defended. Since the Ming army has to attack everywhere after it is strong, especially when it enters other people's land, the number of the army cannot always be superior, and it is the advanced firearms that dominate it, so it is necessary to learn this kind of positional defensive tactics in the military academy, and the adoption of this defensive tactic against the enemy who has a huge advantage in numbers can cause great damage and make the enemy lose confidence in fighting.

Li Hongji knew this time that the troops of the Ottoman Empire and the Crimean Khanate must have an absolute advantage in numbers, and although they may not lose in a frontal battle, Li Hongji is unwilling to pay too much price for his soldiers, so a defensive counterattack is an inevitable way of fighting. Li Hongji was not particularly familiar with such a position, but a large number of grass-roots officers, especially the staff officers who graduated from the Daming Military Academy, were very proficient in it, and when Li Hongji explained to them the objectives of this operation, the officers of the staff headquarters quickly reached an agreement, using the ring defensive position as a preset battlefield, giving priority to the consumption of a large number of enemy soldiers, and finally carrying out a general offensive to make a sharp counterattack.

This circular defense land occupies a total of ten square miles, from the front to the core position of about two miles, of which the position on the north side is slightly thinner, the position on the south side is slightly thicker, and the key places in the traffic trench for transporting troops are made of cement, and there is a hidden cave built of cement and stone, and there is a hidden fort and a single sniper position, such a position is very strong even in later generations, and now for these Ottoman coalition forces is simply a knife to kill chickens, Not to mention the two groups of more than 10,000 people who entered just now, even if more soldiers came in, they couldn't take advantage of it, they couldn't find the bunkers to shoot at all, and by the time they found these deadly bunkers, it was already too late, and the dead couldn't speak.

The death of more than 10,000 soldiers made Governor Irhad very angry, but it was not enough to make him afraid, how can there be immortals in war. Next, he asked the artillery he brought to prepare, and dozens of cannons bought from neutral countries in Europe were immediately erected, and the Ming army was not hiding in the position? This artillery bombardment will see what you can do.

In about half an hour, that is, an hour, the Ottoman artillery positions were built. Governor Eishad gave an order, dozens of artillery began to fire pieces of solid iron balls, yes, now they still use large iron balls to make cannonballs, they don't have *, in fact, even if there is, it doesn't play a big role in the use of cement as a material for the Tibetan cave, transportation purchase, the artillery of later generations is very powerful, and the role played in the Celestial Empire's self-defense counterattack against the Annan Kingdom is not too strong, of course, it is also the fortifications of later generations that are built more solidly, and it is still * that plays a decisive role. Directly burned a large area of the position to the rubble, causing suffocation and death.

After nearly an hour of artillery bombardment, Governor Aishad also exhausted his old book, and almost used half of the shells that could be brought, so that the artillery stopped, looking at the messy Ming army positions that were smashed in front, Governor Aishad was proud in his heart, it seems that the artillery of these Europeans is powerful, and the Ming army does not even have artillery to fight back, look at how they will carry out the next battle, maybe which hateful Ming troops have been stoned to death.

After the artillery covered the position, Governor Aishad immediately ordered the soldiers to start attacking, this time more than 20,000 soldiers rushed up, and Governor Aishad also changed the way of fighting, in order not to be inconvenient, Governor Aishad ordered the soldiers to enter the position immediately after putting back the horses, let the soldiers enter on foot, so as not to restrict the movement on the position. I have to say that Governor Echad still has good combat experience, and the cavalry that has lost the ability to charge is the target for shooting, and the combat ability is not as good as the infantry on the ground.
