732 rush!
"Whew". "Whew." The shells whistled by, and it was the first time that the Qi army launched such a large-scale artillery bombardment. One bronze cannon after another erupted in thick smoke, which quickly obscured the cannon.
"Boom." The first shell exploded in the village, but did not hit any targets. But this was enough to cause enough panic in the Yan army.
But when the first shell exploded, many of the Yan soldiers didn't know what was going on, and some of them were still dozing. You know, there is only one meal at noon, so they need to sleep as much as possible, so that they can be in a situation where they don't starve to death.
"Boom. Rumble. "More and more shells began to be fired at the Yan army gathering place.
"Ahh Some of the Yan soldiers were killed in the fog. Some were killed before they could even scream.
The Qi army used grenades. Shrapnel from grenades can kill as many enemies as possible. But such shells need to be cut, that is, the time difference between the shells and their landing needs to be accurately measured. These measurements don't have to worry about the Qi army now, because the Yan army artillery taught them step by step.
"Bang." A shell accurately hit a thatched house, and the Yan soldiers resting in the thatched house were almost killed at once.
The explosion blew away some human limbs.
The shells kept falling. But almost all of the cannons of the Qi army finished firing the first round. Yan Jun only reacted at this time.
"The cannon of the Qi people." The officers of the Yan army were dressed in single clothes, and they ran out without even having time to put on their boots.
"Whoosh." "Boom." A shell struck again.
"Cannon ・・・・・" Before an officer of the Yan Army who had just run out didn't know what to say, he was hit in the back by shrapnel from a shell. Soon, the officer's single coat was dyed red. Blood began to spurt out.
"Run." Some normal Yan soldiers began to instinctively dodge the flying shells.
"Bang." A cannonball whistled. The shrapnel from the shells killed many people at once. But the Yan soldiers still fled, and they had never seen such a scene at all.
"Don't run. Find something to hide. A backbone Yan Army sergeant shouted loudly. But his cries were of little use, as the soldiers were still on the run. They simply don't stop.
"Sir. The Qi army opened fire. "A sergeant ran to report to their battalion commander.
"I know." The battalion commander sat on the ground and put on his boots in a hurry. He was still wearing a single shirt, and the long period of leisurely life made these soldiers lose their due sharpness. But the battalion commander had experienced such a scene after all. He still hasn't forgotten the military training of the Qin army back then.
"Boom." The shells bombarded again. "Ahh The group of Yan soldiers who fled in the distance fell a lot.
"Hey, hey. Fun, hehe. Playful. A foolish Yan soldier watched the explosion and jumped excitedly. Running hands shouted.
"Whoosh." A shell came again. This time, the shell did not kill the poor Yan soldiers. Instead, he simply blew up that foolish Yan army soldier.
The minced flesh flew over with shrapnel from the shells, and the smoke and dust flew over. The smoke is all filled with some blood mist.
"Get down." The officer pressed the sergeant at once. The officer also had a military boot hanging from one of his feet.
"Fuck." After the explosion, the officer sat up. Then continue to wear his boots.
"Fuck." The sergeant felt some pain in his arm. He found his own arm cut by a piece of shrapnel.
"It's okay." The major asked, taking a look at the sergeant's wounds.
"It's fine, just a little bit of skin. Nothing serious. The sergeant said.
"That's good." The major put on his military boots.
"I need to find clothes." The battalion commander of the major felt a little cold.
"Sir, what are we going to do?" The sergeant also carried an old-fashioned flintlock pistol behind his back.
"What to do? We can't defeat the Qi army at all. The battalion commander of the major said frankly.
The sergeant looked at the major with wide eyes. As if to ask why?
"It's up to us, how to fight, we want artillery, there are no artillery, and there are no two who can fight. How to fight. Find some clothes, let's surrender with dignity. "The Major has already thought about it. When the army went out, he had the idea of surrendering, because the equipment, training and so on were no longer what the Yan army had before, and the training that the Yan army received at the beginning was completely from the personal teaching of the Qin army.
The instructors of the Qin army were quite strong, and they used sticks to teach the soldiers how to practice. If the gun in your hand is a little rusty, then you have to run around the playground with this rifle for twenty laps, or you will not be given food at noon. But look at it now, there are a lot of rusty guns. Suffice it to say, there are not many guns that can be fired. Even the bayonet is rarely sharpened, and the bayonet is probably not as good as the kitchen knife used by a cook to cook and chop vegetables.
Relying on such a force to fight a war is simply a dream. Look at the people in the army. Children of official families and nobles. Every day is either eating and drinking, or prostituting and gambling. Don't do anything, wait for the war. It's all a fool, a nerd, or a peasant who has never seen anything. The combat effectiveness is far, far away.
The major dragged the sergeant to find concealment. The Yan army had no intention of continuing to resist.
"Boom." The shelling continues. The artillery of the Qi army quickly loaded the shells and fired them. Conical ammunition can hit farther. Later bronze artillery made in the Qin State also had rifling. Such artillery is fired at an angle, the distance of which is quite long. Therefore, the artillery of the Qi army was very willing to use this artillery.
"These Yan people. He was stupid enough to run around. Isn't this a target for our artillery? A Qi officer stood on the high ground and looked through a telescope. The smoke of gunpowder drifted through. Behind him were artillery positions.
"It seems that our artillery will be able to completely solve this battle." An artillery officer of the Qi Army said.
"Not necessarily. The infantry hasn't gone up there yet. How long can your artillery still fire? The Qi officer asked.
"This." It was also not clear to the artillery officers of the Qi army that the firing of the artillery greatly depended on the performance of the gun body.
"In the end, we infantry have to settle the battle. Only bullets and bayonets can achieve the final victory. Only when the enemy is trampled under his feet can it be called victory. The officer said with a telescope looking at the Yan army's garrison in the distance.
"The time is almost up. Our infantry began to attack. The officer put down his binoculars and said.
At this time, the infantry of the Qi army was ready for the final charge.
"Boom." There was a constant rumbling of cannon ahead. A man who looked like a junior officer of the Qi army looked at the village covered in artillery fire with a monocular in his hand.
"Blow up, blow up these Yan people." The officer kept scolding.
Their soldiers had already formed their ranks, and some of them looked nervously ahead. The veterans, on the other hand, were very relaxed and chatting with the soldiers around them. Talk about light topics. Such was the pre-war atmosphere. Some are nervous, some are relaxed.
"On the bayonet. On the bayonet. A veteran of the Qi army shouted loudly.
"Bang la la blah." Hearing the order, the Qi soldiers began to draw their bayonets and mount them on their rifles. Their rifles were generally used trap rifles, which still used black powder cartridges. But compared to their opponents, this is already very advanced. Combat veterans, on the other hand, use single-shot back-pull revolving rifles. They used smokeless gunpowder and cartridges. Their bullets were pinned to their bodies one after the other. It looks like John Rambo. But they are very strong. As for the style of the bayonet, it is all the same, it is all the same kind of straight bayonet. The three-edged bayonet was forbidden to be exported to other countries in the Qin state because it was too bloody. Moreover, it is difficult to treat after the assassination, so, for humanitarian reasons, this kind of bayonet did not appear on a large scale in the Six Nations. But this does not mean that the six countries of this kind of bayonet do not have. The Korean army was trained by the Qin army, so they naturally knew the power of this bayonet, and Korean craftsmen made a batch of these bayonets by hand. But this bayonet was only used by the palace guards.
Others were smuggled into the six countries. The bayonet was incredibly powerful, but it was too expensive for a swordsman or a noble private guard. Therefore, this bayonet was not produced on a large scale, but it is worth mentioning that this bayonet required a special metal, that is, chromium, and a small amount of phosphorus. There is also the use of the indigo technique.
The Qi soldiers quickly loaded their bayonets. They are waiting for orders. They know very well that as soon as the cannonade stops. The offensive began.
"Boom." After the last shell was fired. The artillery stopped the offensive. Half an hour passed quickly. If it is fired again, there is a risk that it will explode.
"Gun on the shoulder. Advance. The low-level officer of the Qi army shouted loudly.
"Whoa." There was a clash of gunfire.
"Forward." The officer walked in front and shouted loudly, waving his short sword. They carried pistols in one hand, short swords in the other, or banners with spearheads in the other to boost morale.
In order to be able to greatly preserve the combat stamina. You know, melee combat is all about physical strength. At the same time, it can also preserve the battle formation to the greatest extent. Only the formation can form a huge combat power. Therefore, the Qi army marched in a neat formation. After advancing a certain distance, a massive charge begins.
The sound of footsteps came neatly. The sound is like the waves of the ocean. The mountains are overwhelming.
"Ready!" The officer shouted loudly.
"Oki ah 1" when I am close to the village. A shout. The Qi army began to launch a large-scale offensive.
