796 fell infantry

"Bang." A huge explosion rang out. The artillery of the Korean New Army aimed at the chariot units of the Wei army.

Solid shells whizzed out at once.

"Whew." "Whew." The horses on the chariots of the Wei army let out a sound of fear, and they were terrified by the whistling and screeching sound of the shells of the Korean New Army. And the most frightening thing is that they are watching solid shells fly by. And it's flying towards them.

The artillery of the South Korean New Army uses the late models of the Qin Army's front-loading artillery, which have relatively complete sighting systems. And with rifling inside. Coupled with the importance that the South Korean New Army attaches to artillery, their artillery maintenance artillery is even more severe than that of the Qin army. Therefore, the accuracy of their shells will be greatly improved.

"Whew." A loud noise came.

"Hula." The chariots of the Wei army were instantly shattered by the shells of the new Korean army.

The Wei army in the carriage did not have time to jump out of the carriage. was smashed by the shells of the South Korean New Army. The dismembered limbs were beaten everywhere. The shell directly smashed the head of a horse in front of it and hit the chariot. None of the people in the car were spared.

"Hahaha. The starter hits. The colonel of the South Korean New Army was excited to see it. He saw through the binoculars that the chariot of the Wei army was shattered.

The colonel of the South Korean New Army looked excitedly at the masterpiece of artillery. The South Korean New Army has always been based on the Qin army, and when they formulated their own military regulations, they were even stricter than the Qin army in some places. Therefore, although the number of the South Korean New Army is not very large, they are still higher than the Qin Army in terms of equipment, technology and quality.

"Our enemies will pay a heavy price for their actions." Said the lieutenant colonel staff officer.

"I don't know if they're smart enough, if it were me, I would have chosen to retreat at this time. At the very least, the loss of one's own people is not too great. The colonel said.

And on the other side. A sense of fear arose in the Wei general's heart. This fear is a fear of reality in the heart. This fear comes from the display of weapons by the South Korean New Army.

"General, should we retreat and avoid engaging the South Korean army." An officer who looked like a lieutenant general said.

"Nope. We can defeat the enemy. General Wei Jun said. In fact, the general was very unconfident when he said this, and the general himself did not believe that he could lead an army to defeat the new Korean army.

And the lieutenant general on the side already felt that this battle was very unfavorable for them. Reality had convinced his eyes that they would not be able to defeat their opponents. And the general's performance made him convinced that this war was very unfavorable to them.

"What are we going to do next, General." The adjutant asked.

"What to do? Strike, we can't go on like this. "At present, the Wei army is still a thousand steps away from the Korean new army, and at this distance, they have no weapons that can reach the Korean new army. On the contrary, the Korean New Army, with its superiority in artillery, was able to continuously launch attacks on the Wei army. In this way, the Wei army was in a range of passive beatings. In this way, the Wei army will be in a range of extreme passive beatings.

"Let's attack." The general saw that the situation could not be changed, so he could only say so.

"But, General, we are attacking at this time. It's just too bad for us. And the distance is too long, and our soldiers wear heavy armor. The adjutant said.

Wei was able to rise and become a great power in the early Warring States period, and the most powerful was the Wei Wushu of Wei. Wei Wushu was strict in his selection. And it is well equipped, especially in terms of protection, and the advantage in attack is very large. Wei Wushu was actually a kind of hoplite. But this is relative, because now the army opposite them is light infantry, but their weapons are a generation higher than them. Even hoplites like Wei Wushu could hardly resist the sharp blows of muskets. "I know that. The physical strength of the soldiers is very limited, and even if they are close, it is difficult to have the strength to continue fighting. The general said directly. But we don't attack. It is difficult for us to change the current situation. The general said.

At this time, the adjutant general on the side stopped talking, and the fact was that the Wei army had to advance at least six hundred steps before it could barely launch an attack. But what exactly is going on at this distance, who knows. No one knows what will happen. In the face of the artillery offensive of the South Korean new army. It is quite possible that it will be defeated before the attack distance is reached. As soon as the battle began, the Wei army was forced into a situation of passive beating.

"Order the tank to attack. The central soldiers immediately attacked. General Wei Jun gave the order. He made some compromises with their orders. That is, some specific changes have been made. He only sent part of his forces to attack. It is hoped that a small offensive will be used to harass the deployment of South Korea's new forces and artillery strikes.

"Whoa." The adjutant general on the side received the order and immediately conveyed the order.

"The Wei army is still advancing. Interesting. Looks like they're going to have to give us a hard beating. The colonel watched pitifully as the Wei army continued to fall under the bombardment of his own running shells.

"Put." The artillery officer of the South Korean New Army shouted loudly. Cannonballs whizzed out. The shells that flew out directly hit the Wei formation, which was constantly advancing and approaching.

"Ahh The Wei army that was hit fell to the ground, and the killed lay on the ground and could not do anything. The wounded, on the other hand, wailed in pain. This sound made the Wei soldiers passing by feel a wave of fear.

The heavy armor they wore didn't do anything at all. The shrapnel from the shells easily pierced the heavy armor and entered the human body. If the shrapnel was large enough, some of the limbs of the Wei army were directly cut off. The war was very cruel to them.

"Soldiers. Come on. A sudden command was heard.

The commanders who received the order reacted quickly.

"Drive, drive." The charioteer's rider quickly shook the reins in his hand to make the chariot run. Horses are not so scared until they run.

"Rush." The infantry who followed behind with Ge also received orders at this time. They were the infantry that followed the chariot, and unlike the hoplites who were moving slowly, they were light infantry, but they still had some heavy armor on them, but they didn't have a lot of heavy armor. This was mainly due to the fact that these infantry were fighting with the chariots. That is, they were infantry who followed the chariots. And they all have a certain number of them.

In this typical chariot assault, the infantry follows a tactic that expands the results of the battle. This method of warfare has become very fashionable in the Spring and Autumn Period. And that's how every battle starts. However, the Warring States period began with large-scale field battles. And it is often possible to mobilize the whole country to fight. In other words, the state needs to mobilize the power of the whole country to ensure that the war is won. And the elite troops of the Wei army were not suitable for this kind of national recruitment. And the upfront training cost is too high. As a result, the elite troops are attrition with the war. Can't keep up with the pace of attrition at the front. This caused serious losses for the Wei army. This represents a serious decline in military strength. Moreover, they are also very lacking in tactical innovation, and their combat style still has the simple frontal assault tactics of the Spring and Autumn Period. The lack of innovation in such an army made it impossible for the Wei army to be strong for a long time. After two wars with the State of Qi. Because of the loss of a large number of elite troops, the strength of the Wei State fell significantly, and then, the Qin army launched another almost devastating blow to the Wei army in the rear. This caused Wei to quickly lose its early Warring States period of power. And since then it has been in a slump.

Now, the tactics used by the Wei army are still the same as the old tactics they used before, and they have not made any innovations. So. The combat effectiveness of this unit can be seen and will not have much lethality.

"Kill." In the midst of a burst of shouts of killing. The Wei army rushed out about 400 men and slaughtered the new Korean army.

"The Wei army has a new move." The lieutenant colonel said with a telescope.

"Yes." The Colonel simply nodded.

"Ordered our rifles to unfold in formation. Enter the firing state. Reserve artillery delivers a devastating blow to the attacking enemy. The colonel said.

"Yes, sir." The lieutenant colonel nodded. Then wave your hand to signal the people below to convey the order.

"Put." The order was quickly delivered. The reserve artillery was aimed at the approaching Wei army to deliver a devastating blow.

"Attention everyone. Enter the firing state. The officer shouted loudly.

"Shoot from a kneeling position in the front row." The platoon leaders shouted loudly.

"Whoa." All the first-row infantry got down on one knee at once and went into a kneeling position.

"Everyone, get ready." The officer shouted.

"Ready." The platoon leaders shouted.

"Ready." All the soldiers opened the fire doors of their flintlock muskets. This time. The officer did not give any further orders. They need to wait. And it is enough for the soldier to quietly maintain this posture.

"Kill." The Wei army frantically rushed towards the new Korean army.

"Boom." Explosions kept coming, but the Wei were fast-moving, and they could use their speed to dodge the shells. Even so, there were still people who were shot and fell. Because the area of attack of the infantry is large. On the contrary, the vehicle is difficult to hit because of its fast movement.

"Order, the infantry get ready to shoot." The colonel looked at Wei Jun in the binoculars. They are getting closer to their own front. The distance was getting closer, but the infantry behind them was left far behind, as the chariots were dodging the shells.

"What's wrong with our tanks. How can you leave the infantry behind. "The Wei generals themselves did not understand why such a thing was happening. He really didn't understand why the charioteers were doing this.
