The war pays attention to the virtual and the real, and the other flags do not have any torches, everyone moves forward by the stars in the sky and the fire in the distance, but Yang Xuan walks in front with the killer flag, and each person has a torch in his hand, illuminating the surroundings as if it were daylight. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Behind the killer's flag, there are 6 small flags of musketeers in a neat row, everyone didn't have any torches, everyone's fire rope has been lit, the lead gunpowder projectile has been loaded, everyone is lined up in six rows, one by one closely behind the killer's flag.

In the same pattern, those who escaped were co-opted, and those who did not obey orders were killed on the spot.

Everyone was the first to be worried, but Yang Xuan was quite domineering, and after he actually killed a fallen Bai Zong on the spot, everyone was speechless when they saw the bloody heads.

The deserters were constantly reorganized, or forced to turn around and fight again, and those who did not comply were cut down to the ground as local thugs.

With a distance of less than two hundred paces, a total of more than ten teams have been collected, and now the killer lineup has expanded to 6 general flags, and the musket small flag has also expanded by as many as three.

Yang Xuan went against the trend, and immediately attracted the attention of the local tyrants, no, seeing that the loyal and righteous army was killed, Liang Si led more than 200 people to kill it, hoping to break the formation and defeat the official army.

Qi Jiguang once demanded in "Records of Military Training" that when the enemy entered about 120 steps, he needed to blow a siak to remind him.

When the enemy enters a hundred paces, it is necessary to blow the swan, the first row of guns, then each blow, the next one to release guns, and so on.

Seeing that there were dense torches in front of him, the sound of shouting and killing came from far and near, and at about one hundred and twenty paces, the good hands blew a squeak, and the hundred guns rushed to the front, quickly lined up in six rows, and one by one raised the bird guns and aimed at the front.

Arquebuses are slightly different from flintlock pistols, arquebuses cannot be fired in a concentrated manner like flintlock muskets because they need to light an open flame, and arquebusiers often spread out and then aim at a distance.

Since everyone did not have unified training, it was impossible to fire in turn at seventy paces as Yang Xuan requested, especially the three small flags that had just been assigned, and after seeing the other party rushing closer, many people nervously let go.

Although the standard for long-range shooting is 100 steps (120 meters), there are too many interference factors on the battlefield, and it is very good to be able to reach 50 steps.

In the past, when I watched the musketeers fight, we often saw the most elite side constantly being shot by stray bullets from afar, and everyone looked at death one by one, and moved forward bravely, and then released their guns outside the optimal range to suppress the opponent and shoot the opponent.

I didn't know it in the past, but now I suddenly realize that in addition to exposing the target and wasting ammunition, what is more important is wasting the possibility of shooting the opponent at the best range.

Whether it is an arquebus or a flintlock pistol, it is mostly a single shot, which is difficult to reload, and the chance to shoot is very limited.

But thankfully, the three small flags that were placed at the front for personal training did not fire guns indiscriminately, and everyone silently half-squatted and stood, ignoring the flying leads, and nervously aimed at the distance.

Yang Xuan nervously calculated, this time it was a six-stage attack, which could completely guarantee continuous shooting, since this was the case, Yang Xuan put the firing distance at fifty steps (the effective shooting distance of ordinary archers)

Since the Yongle period, the Ming army general Mu Ying adopted the stacking formation method, stacking the formation combat is the Ming army's favorite tactic, that is, one person puts the gun in the front, and the back 2 people (some even 4 people) load ammunition in the back.

After that, under the influence of Japan, the three-stage attack was also used, which is the kind of tactic we used to see in the cinema, that is, standing in three rows, and taking turns to aim in front of them.

In addition to this, the most primitive was the six-stage shot used by the Spaniards, which was used by the Spaniards in the early days of the musket to compensate for the slow reloading of gunpowder

And this time, because it was dark night, because the road was very narrow, and the arquebus in this era needed to be separated from each other by a certain distance because of open fire, in order to ensure continuous shooting, Yang Xuan inadvertently adopted this most primitive tactic.

Seeing that the earth rioters rushed to fifty steps (nearly sixty meters), and some even released arrows into the sky, Yang Xuan waved his big hand, and the trumpeter blew the sound of a swan, and the first small flag in front stood up and fired, and then the second small flag, the third small flag...

The fire flickered, the smoke kept rising, the guns were bursting, even if it was nearly a hundred birds, six rows of rounds, but the gap between each round was still very long, after the guns, everyone had to clean up the chamber, to fill gunpowder, to load lead, to load gunpowder, to aim and shoot.

At this time, firearms were still in the arquebus era, and even the most skilled first small flag could shoot six arrows in a row in the time it took to fire a round.

However, the six-stage attack relied on the numerical advantage to make up for this shortcoming, especially in the first round, the gunfire was round after round, and there was not much gap, and before the green smoke in front dissipated, the back ones had already been released.

But the distance is too close (the firing distance is only sixty steps), the effective shooting distance of the bird gun is more than 100 steps, in the face of the more than 100 soil rioters who rushed over to continuously release the gun, the front of the earth tyrant is not suitable at all, according to the past experience, this bird gun is very slow to load, and the time required to put a gun is enough to shoot six arrows.

Besides, the front is only more than 50 steps apart, and it is completely possible to use bows and arrows to fight back, some people desperately blindly shoot arrows into the sky, and a few so-called elite soldiers wearing cotton armor, and soldiers wearing quilts are constantly jumping up from behind, ready to rush and kill.

But this was a six-stage attack, six rows of shots in turns, each round of shooting had a very short interval, just did not rush out a few steps, the sound of birds in front of him sounded again, and the companions around him kept falling.

In the face of such a dense burst of shooting, the soldiers in front of the impact were blinded, and there were dozens of large and small battles, how could you have ever seen such a way of fighting?

After a slight delay, the sound of the bird's gun sounded again, and the soldiers who rushed over were immediately sieve.

Of course, there are also people who desperately charge forward, but there are archers and crossbowmen to solve the problem outside twenty or thirty paces, and at the end of the Ming Dynasty, in the era of the cross-use of hot and cold weapons, there are not only a large number of bird gunners in the army, but also a large number of archers and crossbowmen.

As the saying goes, a hundred steps through Yang, that is, a top archer can shoot a target of a hundred steps, of course, there are very few top archers like this, Qi Jiguang evaluated the archer standard in "Training Record" is eighty steps.

Now there are long-range bird-bearers, medium-range of course, only to the archers, a few fish that have slipped through the net rush to fight, but arrows fall from the sky, and many have become targets.

In this way, the local thugs could not rush close at all, and some of the slightly brave ones became live targets and were beaten into a sieve.

Seeing that the earth tyrant was obviously not suitable for his crazy combat method (six-stage attack), the torches in front of him were crowded together, and he didn't dare to move forward at all, Yang Xuan waved his hand and led everyone to shoot while advancing with a bird gun.

Seeing the officers and soldiers killing, the torches in front became even more chaotic, some torches charged to the front, and some moved to the back.

Everyone kept loading ammunition, shooting at the torches that rushed over, and seeing their most ferocious brothers being shot one by one, Liang Sixin, who was crossing the sky, was like a knife, and was about to retreat, when suddenly there was a loud shout of killing from behind.

It turned out that taking advantage of the scene of the head-on battle just now, Chen Yingzong, the head of the front bureau, led his subordinates to detour to the flank, and now he suddenly launched an attack, and the local rioters panicked and retreated one after another.

Combat in the era of cold weapons mainly relied on courage, and the generals carried small flags behind their backs, and the generals wore the best armor, in addition to being used for defense, it was easy to identify on the battlefield.

Liang Si is wearing a shining silver helmet and silver armor, which is particularly eye-catching, which can certainly boost morale when attacking, and is a target when escaping.

Riding on a war horse, the silver helmet and silver armor on his body were particularly dazzling, shining in the firelight, and could be clearly seen in the distance.

Seeing that the opposing general was so obvious, the melee immediately gasped, picked up the bird gun and aimed at the target sixty steps away, the fire flashed, the smoke billowed out, Liang Si was shot off the horse, and fell under the horse.

Seeing that Liang Si was shot, the local rioters were even more panicked, and everyone fled one after another, fleeing to the depths.

Yang Xuan led his troops to press on all fronts, constantly approaching the local tyrants who were besieging the official barracks.

Yao Huang Zhengtian King Yuan Tao desperately wanted to gather troops and horses to fight back, and the two blocking troops and horses that were sent out had not yet been fought, but they were beaten by Yang Xuan's six-stage shooting tactics in turn, plus the news that Liang Si was killed by Guotianxing had already spread, and everyone panicked and didn't dare to fight again.

And those officers and soldiers who were harassed by the local rioters saw that such a new force was killed, and their morale was greatly shaken, and they fought from behind, killed and defeated the local rioters, and then converged together to rescue other officers and soldiers.

In this way, the situation on the battlefield was slowly reversed, and in the end, the officers and troops turned defeat into victory, killed and scattered the local thugs who attacked the camp, and recaptured the camp.
