In the era of cold weapons, all pay attention to a formation, and the formation is properly arranged, which can give full play to the power of mutual cooperation between various weapons.

Officers and soldiers were able to fight more and less against the rogues, not only because firearms and bows and arrows were more abundant. Instead, the formation of officers and soldiers is more exquisite, how to arrange swords, guns, swords, halberds, long and short weapons, long-range and short-range weapons, and the rational application of cavalry and infantry, etc.

The rogues also continued to learn and learn from each other during the war, replacing training with actual combat. By the end of the Ming Dynasty, those who survived had quite strong combat experience.

Now against the Tiance Army, if they are given some time, the rogues can also set up a similar formation to attack, but unfortunately the cannonballs of the Tiance Army are falling like raindrops. They had nothing to care about, they just wanted to leave the shelling area as soon as possible, eradicate the source of the shelling as soon as possible, and the rogues wanted to use their superiority in strength to push the position of the 5th Regiment.

From the starting point of the attack of the rogues, the distance to the position of the Fifth Regiment was three miles.

Although the speed of the cavalry's attack was fast, the speed of adjustment of the mortar was also very fast, and such a speed was not comparable to that of field artillery, and even more so with the Franc machine gun.

With the adjustment of the angle of mortar shelling, the shells fell on the offensive route of the cavalry. The artillery has gradually matured in continuous actual combat, and has also summed up a lot of tactics in daily training. The enemy took the cavalry as the front and attacked his own side with superior forces, without Wang Yue's orders, and the artillery quickly opened a barrage of blocking in front.

The barrage hit the front third of the enemy's cavalry. Due to the high-speed charge of the cavalry, there is a lag between the landing of the cannonball, so after the formation of this barrage, it is basically at the waist of the enemy's cavalry, and the purpose is to cut off the enemy's cavalry.

This type of artillery is one of the most trouble-free, and the distance of the ruler of all mortars is uniform, so that it can be quickly adjusted in place. At this distance, all the mortars are evenly distributed in a uniform width, for example, if the interval between the strikes of each gun is 10 meters, the 96 guns form a barrage with a width of nearly 1 kilometer in front.

The killing radius of the 60 mortar is 17.6 meters, and the killing radius of the 100 mm mortar can reach 41.2 meters, so the commander can adjust this width according to the enemy's situation.

After only two rounds of shelling, the cavalry of the rogue was cut in two, and after the third round of shells landed, the cavalry in the rear had to quickly hold on to the reins and look in horror at the position of the barrage.

The sight of ninety-six shells landing almost simultaneously was truly spectacular, and the fire and smoke exploded almost simultaneously in a kilometer-wide area, a spectacle they had never seen before.

Of course, they didn't come to see the scenery, but were frightened by the tragic situation near the barrage. The cavalry charge was inertia, and nearly 2,000 cavalry casualties were killed and wounded under the shelling in just three rounds of shelling.

Not all of these nearly 2,000 cavalrymen were directly killed, and many of the cavalrymen were only injured and fell off their horses, or their horses were killed and injured and thrown off their horses. But these people basically couldn't survive, batch after batch of shells came one after another, so they couldn't die anymore, many of them had no bones, and the cavalry in the rear could not be frightened?

The theoretical rate of fire of mortars is twenty rounds per minute, and the artillery of the Tiance Army can now reach fifteen rounds per minute at high speed, so one shell will land every four seconds.

Taking the 60 mortar's killing radius of 17.6 meters as an example, the theoretical maximum charging speed of the cavalry is 40 kilometers per hour, and it takes 3.17 seconds to pass 35.2 meters. Theoretically, the cavalry still had a chance of 0.83 seconds, but many people were not so lucky.

The other half of the cavalry who rushed in front couldn't help but slow down their horses, and the sound of explosions from behind them made them involuntarily look back, only to find that the people behind them had not followed, and their rear roads had been artificially cut off by the enemy.

Morale on the battlefield is very important, and the morale of this half of the cavalry can't help but sink, and the prospects for this battle are not good.

Because he wants to show himself, Sun Kewang is in the first half of the cavalry team.

He also knew that it was not good, but the Tiance Army had already cut off the back road and formed a pattern of fighting against the water, so there was only one way to fight.

"Brothers, keep rushing! As long as the artillery of the officers and soldiers is served, the brothers in the back will arrive later! Sun Kewang shouted loudly.

His own soldiers also helped him shout loudly, there were too many people, one person shouted, and many people could not hear.

When the rogue cavalry heard that it made sense, they began to charge in a disorderly manner. There is no way to be like an arm and a finger, and it is uniform, and the rogue is the rogue is the rogue.

There were about 5,000 cavalry in the first half of the cavalry led by Sun Kewang, and there was still more than a mile away from the position of the Tiance army.

Liu Guoneng followed the cavalry with the infantry, and found that the cavalry in front couldn't rush over, and hesitated in front of the barrage, so he rushed over with a horse.

The barrage designed by the Tiance Army is indeed breathtaking, and I have never seen such a war.

Liu Guoneng looked at the half of the cavalry that continued to rush towards the Tiance Army, and hurriedly ordered: "All go around, go around to support the brothers in front, what are you doing here stupidly?" ”

The remaining three or four thousand cavalry woke up like a dream, and they didn't look at the scenery anymore, and immediately turned their horses' heads to bypass the barrage and continue the attack. After all, they are cavalry, and it is quick to get around.

At the same time, the shelling of the southbound detachment of the Tiance Army in Chaling continued, and Wang Hongwu had already issued an order to attack on all fronts.

The southbound detachment had a Tiance corps and four security corps, with a total of more than 7,500 troops, advancing towards Liukou.

Thirty armored vehicles were the first to start, followed by more than 1,500 infantry of the Fourth Regiment, each topped with a soldier with a high-powered telescope.

Mixed with the infantry were forty oil tankers, which at this time also had soldiers from the Tiance Army, followed by the strength of two security regiments, and the other two security regiments were escorting the 50,000 hungry soldiers captured in Shucheng to the south, and it was expected that they would arrive in another day.

The Tiance army suddenly came in a big way, but it frightened the hungry soldiers.

Most of these hungry soldiers were homeless people who had been brought in, young and strong, and most of them were women, old people and children, and their weapons were wooden sticks, dung forks, or stones.

Don't look at the number of them, they are almost overwhelming, and they look scary, but in fact, they don't have much courage to fight against officers and soldiers.

They're usually just fighting, making some siege equipment, and mixing up with the wind or something. Another function of them is that when the rogues are defeated, they will leave them behind and hinder the pursuit of officers and soldiers. Aren't the officers and soldiers fond of killing good people and risking meritorious deeds, and the heads of these people are also credited.
