Knowing the strength of the Qing army, Ao Bai couldn't help but smile, this is the new army built at a cost of millions of silver taels?

And these million silver taels are just refining a new arms unit of the Qing army, but I don't know how much higher their combat effectiveness is than Kong Youde's three Han firearms troops?

Look at the new musket that the New Army soldier carried on his shoulder, it was not a big deal, it looked a little shorter than the musket bought from the Tessians, the iron pipe was thicker, and the pattern decoration on the gunfire was more refined.

It's just that the soldiers who are shooting in line towards the target seem to be more energetic and energetic than the previous Ming soldiers when they were shooting in line, and what is refreshing is that the continuous gunfire lasts for a long time, and it sounds very regular, unlike in the past, when the Ming army saw the cavalry of the Qing army, or bravely rushed up full of warriors, they didn't even know where to put their hands and feet in a panic, these people at least now seem to be able to shoot muskets neatly.

In the past, the Ming army fired iron sand with muskets, sixty paces, about 30 to 45 meters, which could make the Qing soldiers suffer heavy casualties, and those with combat effectiveness could only hide carefully.

But the Qing army warriors shoot arrows accurately, and fast, the elite white tooth warriors of the Qing army, using the Qing army's heavy bow, an arrow can shoot eighty meters away, hit the Ming army's face door, quasi-death, hit the body of the Ming army, cloth clothes Ming army, seriously injured or must die, hit those wearing cotton armor, paper armor, can also make them lose their combat effectiveness, or die, hit those wearing leather armor or chain armor, can make them injured, or seriously injured, lucky only minor injuries, can also fight or escape.

And when the Qing army reached the enemy's sixty meters away, the Ming generals of the chain armor were not used, the middle one must be injured, wearing iron armor, or two layers of armor are also casualties, only the Ming army family members who wear cotton armor and Mingguang armor all over the body, the generals, can still fight, because even if they are injured, they will not retreat, most of the armor on their bodies is made of iron armor, and other parts are covered with heavy cloth or more clothes, even if the Qing army is sixty meters away, they can only attack them, but their numbers and bravery are obviously lower than the Qing warriors, If the battle is not long, it will take the initiative to retreat, which will lead to the defeat of the battle.

This is infantry fighting, if it is cavalry, even if the bow and arrow can not tear through the armor of the enemy in the distance, but rush to the front to fight, only the iron armor soldiers of Dashun or Zhang Xianzhong's dead soldiers, or some famous generals of the Ming army have the strength to fight, fight is the same is not afraid of death, brave, the speed of the cavalry is very fast, and they rushed to the front in a blink of an eye, at this time the Ming army found that the fire guns in their hands could not hurt at all, or that the Qing army did not hurt much, In terms of combat experience and skills, they are not as superb as the Qing soldiers who fought and died all day long, so the Ming army was defeated repeatedly, and the Qing army rarely won a victory.

In the fierce battle, the Qing army has always had the advantage, always able to crush the Ming army, and now it seems that in the face of this Qing army with such equipment, Ao Bai has no choice but to hope that they can be as confident as the Ming army, and see that the enemy will collapse without a fight, and shoot muskets indiscriminately.

For example, these arquebuses of the new army of the Qing army put a kind of iron bullet in the arquebus, just one, but the power can definitely be within 80 to 100 steps, that is to say, between 45 meters and 75 meters, penetrate the three layers of armor on their bodies, and then kill people, such combat effectiveness, if some of the Ming army dare to fight, only need to fight one round, even if the charging Qing army can hurt those Ming troops, their own casualties are not small.

When they were not afraid of death, brave, rushed to a distance of 60 meters, archery, the Ming army fought with heavy casualties, and after another round, the casualties of the Qing army were even greater, and at a distance of 40 meters, it is estimated that there are not too many Qing troops who can rush to this distance, and the Ming army can hold on to another round, even if the Qing army can finally rush into the ranks of the Ming army, it is afraid that it will suffer heavy casualties, at least a small half of the personnel will not come back.

Those who died were warriors who dared to charge and were not afraid of death, and there were not too many such warriors, even among the Qing army Manchus, who were known for their bravery.

Just look at the results of the targets opposite the soldiers of the new army of the Qing army, those targets are placed one hundred and twenty steps away, there are straw men wearing cloth clothes, straw men wearing cotton armor, and straw men wearing chain armor, as well as grass men wearing Ming army Mingguang armor, and wearing the Qing army's armor similar to the Ming army's Mingguang armor The kind of cotton armor and iron armor system armor is sewn on the cotton armor to make the style of Mingguang armor, the main body is cotton armor, and the important parts are chains and iron sheets.

They were all beaten into a sieve, and not a single straw man was spared.

I can only hope that there is no such thing in the Ming army that dares to let a charging Qing army unit kill and wound more than three rounds of Ming musketeers!

After Ao Bai saw the musket shooting of the soldiers of the new army of the Qing army, his previous arrogance and arrogance had disappeared without a trace, and his face became solemn.

Maybe the Qing army can stop when it is 75 to 80 meters away from the Ming army, shoot at the Ming army with a heavy bow, first kill and injure the morale of the Ming army, and then see that the Ming army is in chaos, and then let the cavalry attack and charge, so that the Ming army will still not be able to win the Qing army, Ao Bai thought.

But the truth is that Feng Quan's words made him vomit blood.

Feng Quan said to Hong Chengchou: "My lord, you see, before the musket team shoots, we can first fight with the enemy's artillery, this is the tactics of the Huaxia Army, an ordinary Huaxia Army is equipped with three three-pounder guns, if this kind of artillery shoots solid bullets, it can hit 60 meters to 180 meters away, if it hits iron sand, it can hit 30 meters to 55 meters away, and some projectiles can fly 65 meters away, causing certain damage to the attacking army. ”

Aobai's heart sank, even if it was three iron balls, solid bullets, he didn't want to see it, which meant that the Qing army in the charge reached the farthest distance from the Ming army, and when he dismounted and shot arrows, a solid bullet could make the Qing army lose more than a dozen people, at least three to five people could be killed, which was more than the loss of people in the charge.

Three down, the Qing army directly lost thirty or fifty people, not to mention close, the enemy still has iron sand that can hit a large area of lethality, this is another kind of injury, even if the Ming army only has two chances, one to hit solid bullets, one to hit iron sand, then a charge of the Qing army, the casualties are definitely more than eighty to one hundred.

How many people are in the Qing army?

There were about two hundred to three hundred men, and more than a third of them were killed or wounded in this charge, plus the pursuit of the enemy's retreating troops, no, there were three rounds of musket fire from the Ming army,...... It is estimated that after the entire battle, a Manchurian warrior of the Qing army in Niu Lu will be reimbursed for most of it, and this is the real loss.

And then, Feng Quan said again, "My lord, 100 households is the most basic combat unit of the Huaxia Army, and generally the Huaxia Army fights with battalions as units, with a battalion of 200 people, plus the battalion officer's own personal guards, and a general banner of 100 households directly under the battalion headquarters, about 500 to 600 people.

That is to say, we have to deal with at least about 350 arquebuses and six three-pounder guns, which is the case with the general Huaxia barracks, and there are more elite units in the Huaxia army, such as the Guards Brigade.

Their battalion is relatively large, about 800 men, and there are battalion-level artillery directly under the battalion, which they call six-pounder guns, and the firing range is 500 meters at most, and it may be 600 meters away, about a mile. A battalion is directly subordinate to about four to six guns. ”

Ao Bai's heart was dripping blood, and he really wanted to tell Feng Quan, can you shut up?

At the same time, he said bitterly in his heart: "Enemy, can you be weaker?" ”
