Chapter 394: Random Fire
Seeing this kind of ancient war for the first time, Li Hang really felt what it means to be endless. Although the opponent is obviously in a certain formation, this kind of revitalization is a good thing for himself. Unless you can really rely on the sheer majority of your troops to gain a huge advantage. Otherwise, in general, the army will not dare to disperse too much.
Especially cavalry.
If the cavalry is clenched into a fist, the blow is quite powerful. Because no matter what you say, even if they encounter a forest of guns, they can still rely on the cavalry in the first row to smash and crook the barrels of their guns, and use flesh and blood to clear the way for those behind. But once it is dispersed, it will not have this ability in the face of the gun. In addition, at this time, five hundred hoplites can be clearly seen in front of the pillbox, and they dare to separate?
I don't know how it will be broken when the time comes.
Zhao Feilong just glanced at it, and hugged Li Hang. "Zhao went first."
"Be careful. Wait until the enemy can't hold it anymore and give them a fatal blow. "There weren't a lot of cavalry in the New Army, but they had stirrups to help them, plus this steel armor and horse armor. That's pretty impressive. At least bronze can't break through this defense. If you really calculate it, you will actually understand.
A set of steel armor. The cost is calculated in units of ten taels of silver. The cost was at least four hundred and fifty taels of silver. And what about bronze? This set of bronze armor on their Turks was no more than fifty taels at most. It's not enough.
Although the number is slightly smaller. But the profession of cavalry is not about the number of people at all.
This class only needs to use its powerful impact to disperse enemies.
Only then did Li Hang begin to command the artillery to adjust the angle.
The musket procession began to line up.
After the trilinear array is listed. All of them let out a sigh of relief.
After reading it, the observers on the side nodded to Li Hang. "Confirmed, the enemy number is about five thousand."
Very good, this time it's all confirmed. Don't worry about it now.
Li Hang breathed a sigh of relief. "Follow your daily training. Your loader has been improved. It is possible to immobilize the bullet slightly. Don't be afraid, as long as you aim at it, you can say anything. ”
This was probably the first actual combat of the musket. Although they must have fought some other prey or something to practice before, this obviously didn't have the current oppressive power.
The sense of death oppression brought by the cavalry array. Plus the constant prestige of the Turks. If it's not that their training is good enough, if it's not that their position is on a high platform. I'm afraid that some people will have the intention of retreating now.
Look at those who have weak legs and stomachs. Li Hang walked behind them and patted them on the shoulder. "Don't worry, we're absolutely safe here. And we still have enough lethality. We can win. ”
"Yes. Think of the guns in your hands shooting those bronze armors. How many people in bronze armor can resist? The adjutant on the side also began to scream.
"Kill the Turkic dogs and avenge the dead compatriots!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Li Hang nodded slightly. He pulled out his own gun. "I'll go with you!"
Although it is said that they are advancing and retreating together, there are two people standing next to Li Hang. And there is a large number of artillery around it. Now it's time for the other side to charge. Choosing a good position is not only a simple terrain advantage, but more importantly, it can mark the injection process. Once the opponent steps into range. The observer on the side can direct the bombardment of these artillery pieces according to the markings on the ground. At the same time, it is possible to continue to have perfect control over the landing point of such a place.
At this time, they have a target, they just need to aim and shoot.
Li Hang looked in front of him. The opposing cavalry is also spreading out their formation. This time, though, they used a sharp arrow. This formation was designed specifically to shock the infantry. It will be like a chisel, directly chiseling these infantry, not to mention the ability of these people for the time being, the infantry of the general cavalry impact several times can rely on the strong impact force to directly refill the gap.
Once the opponent's formation is chiseled. Then all that's left is to keep chiseling back and forth through each other. Then the people were scattered.
People are like that, you will have an inexplicable sense of security when the formation is set, because you are surrounded by your own people. Once the formation is dispersed. You'll start to get scared, and once you're swept away, you'll want to run away from the dead people around you. It's human instinct. It is also the general idea of people. What's more, their movements will be contagious to those around them at this time.
That is, as soon as one of them starts to flee, the people around them will start to have a chain reaction. This is the collapse of morale.
It is also because of this situation that there will be the existence of the Overseer team. That's how to deal with the situation.
Li Hang picked up the earthen horn on the side, and then began to shout. "In the past, the Turks killed our compatriots, and we were powerless, but now we are the last force to stop this group of Turks. Once we fail, they can go straight in. Can we fail? ”
"Can't!"
"Can't!"
"Can't!"
The soldiers started screaming.
"Can we watch them kill our parents, wives and children?"
Li Hang shouted, at this time, he needed to motivate their determination to fight to the death.
"Can't!"
"Can't!"
"Can't!"
"Very well, now according to what you did when you trained, they are not people, they are just a gun target that can run and jump! They are not worthy of men! ”
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Very good. This time it was almost completely mobilized. These non-commissioned officers, who have learned culture, have an advantage over ordinary soldiers. They know that this is the time to make a determination, and they know that they need to take the lead. It is useful for boosting morale.
Li Hang said as he looked ahead. They finally moved.
Tremors began to appear on the ground. Even those standing on the high platform can feel it. This was the shock when the cavalry began to run. That is why the cavalry is terrifying. This kind of oppressive force, this kind of deterrent force, is definitely not something that ordinary soldiers can stop. If it was really up to the people to come here to stop it, it is estimated that there would be a frightening person by now. But I'm a professional soldier here.
At least Zhao Feilong trained them to be quite tenacious.
At least for now, they were really not afraid of the cavalry, and although some of them nervously clenched their guns, none of them took a step back.
"Behind is home, we have no way out!"
The observer nodded after glancing. Li Hang became excited. "The artillery began to fire, firing at random at the crowd."
There was a popping sound of "boom". The war began.
