After seeing Wang Jingzhong, the sergeant major glanced at the newly appointed battalion commander, and reported to Wang Jingzhong that the whole army had reported it, and of course this veteran knew what was going on, he tilted his head sideways and said in a low voice: "Battalion officer, there is really no need for this, this is still very risky, you can come to our Taiwan marching division, that is, the adults have believed in you again." ”

"Let's get ready for a fight." A few more young men were knocked down by the opposite side, some were hit in the chest, a large amount of blood gushed out, soaked a large area of military uniform, it is estimated that they could not be saved, more people were shot in different places, they made a muffled sound, insisted on being carried down by the medical staff for treatment before shouting.

Now Hutchison has a hand in debridement, bandaging and sterilization, but it still can't eliminate wound infection, whether these young men can survive or not is between the two, depending on their resistance and luck.

Wang Jingzhong saw that the gunners of the two and a half squadrons of the whole ship were already in place, the war drums were beating, the flags were spreading, and the soldiers in the first row were ready for everything, three strikes, shooting, crouching, loading, shooting, shooting, crouching, loading, loading, loading......

Everything is very familiar and flowing, without the slightest hindrance, and compared with the navy's lack of certainty, the officers and men of the army are obviously more trustworthy and dependable.

A squadron of jumping soldiers waited behind, and the musketeers reserved some passages for them.

They were all dressed in heavy armor, but that didn't stop them from jumping over the side of the ship and jumping onto the opposite ship to fight.

These were young men from twenty to thirty years old, and the whole army of more than 100,000 people had less than 2,000 jumping soldiers, and they were less than the number of lancers. Only the most tenacious soldiers, martial arts, courage, and strong as cattle are qualified to be jumping soldiers.

They may not have a high rank, but they are left in the ranks of soldiers, and as long as they are transferred to serve, they can easily be promoted a few ranks in half a year, because everyone knows that these soldiers who are always ready for hand-to-hand combat against any strong enemy are the most trustworthy group of men.

The officers of each ship gave orders, and the gunners of each squadron were lined up, the sail batters were about 46 meters long, and most of the squadron's gunners stood on the side side, and the rest of the squadrons stood behind them.

From the collision to the hook and the hook to the completion of the formation, in fact, it was less than three minutes, in this short time, each ship had downed soldiers, the losses were not serious, and the proportion was smaller than the training.

After all, during training, the ships exaggerated the enemy's capabilities, and now it seems that they are more than exaggerated.

The Dutch in this era also did not play well with muskets, and the low hit rate after the release was a little scary, and it is no wonder that the Europeans later adopted the smoothbore gunfight method of lining up to shoot, in fact, the main reason is that the lethality of muskets in this era is really low scary, better gunpowder, stronger kinetic energy, rifling, rear loading bullets, fixed bullets...... Everything is slowly improving.

"Raise your gun!"

With the sergeant's order, there was a clattering sound of guns raised from all the battleships.

Unlike the arquebuses of the Dutch, the Hutchison merchant army has all been equipped with flintlock pistols, and the dragon head is wrenched, as long as the flint is struck when it is released, the spark splashes into the medicine pool, and then the primer will burn to initiate, shoot, and charge, and the lead pellet stuffed in the barrel will burst out......

"Put!"

Almost at the same time, the first platoon commander of the four ships gave the order to release.

All the flag bearers waved their flags down, and the first row of gunners had been waiting for a long time, and just now the Dutch kept firing the guns, and they were already furious when they saw that some of their partners kept falling.

"Bang!"

Nearly 200 firecrackers were fired at the same time at the first time!

On a large rocking ship, small firearms are not easy to use, and they are too close, so be careful of collapsing and hurting your own people. Therefore, the two sides can only use individual firearms, and the Dutch on the opposite side use arquebuses, although flintlock pistols also appeared in Europe thirty years ago, but there is still a long time from the appearance to the installation, not to mention that the East India Company is overseas, and the installation is even later. Only a few flintlock muskets arrived in Asia from Europe, and they remained in Batavia to be copied, while arquebuses are still used by the ship's crew.

For these Dutchmen, this was an eye-opener as well.

The Hutchison merchant regiment soldiers on each sailing boat are lined up in a neat queue, dozens of fire guns are fired together, and there are no cumbersome operations such as burning the lead rope, the arquebus gun is at least a dozen steps, all of which are indispensable, and the flintlock pistol has to save half of the effort, plus the training is excellent, and it is also loaded in advance, when the command is released, the projectile is burst out.

The salvo of nearly 200 firearms, the power and momentum can be imagined, from south to north, there was a loud bang from the four ships, the sound was too loud, but it was to cover the firing sound of several nearby guns, the muzzle of the gun kept spewing fire, and the orange sparks were followed by the lead pellets that flew out, one after another, almost instantly, the first round was all fired.

The gunners of the first shot crouched down for the first time after the shot, but before crouching, they still looked at the other side.

It's too close!

The two ships are on the gang, the people on the opposite side are lined up on the deck, only a few steps away, jump over the side of the two ships and rush two steps to the place where the Dutch are ready to meet the enemy, such a distance, even if it is not a salvo, a single shot can most of the hit, although the hit rate of the smoothbore gun is amazingly low, but it is the premise of tens or hundreds of steps, these few steps of distance, where can it be crooked?

The Dutch were also firing muskets, but the East India Company's musket reserves were not large, and the arquebuses were cumbersome and complicated, and the sailors did not have the habit of firing in formation.

Even so, when the merchant soldiers lined up, nearly ten people were knocked down in each ship, and the casualties were much higher than in ordinary land battles.

The same people, pulled to the land to fight, Hutchison will not have so many casualties at all, or the distance is too close, the hit rate is high and there is no time to dodge.

When peeking in, I only saw blood bursting out everywhere on the opposite side, many Dutch people were shot in the chest, a large area of blood did not gush out, but as if it was sprayed out, such a close distance, the musket bullet with a huge kinetic energy drilled into the human body, the damage was much higher than the bullet of later generations of penetrating wounds, almost the middle was killed immediately, chest, face, abdomen, everywhere there were Dutch sailors who fell to the ground and died after being shot, there was almost no screaming, wailing, too close, When a bullet enters the body, the internal organs are instantly shattered, and the person can lose consciousness in an instant, and then die within a few minutes.

The entire Dutch garrison front was flattened in an instant!

But it was not over, after the first column of musketeers crouched, the second column continued to play, and after the second round, there were more Dutchmen who fell, and then the third column was released, and after three rounds, there were not many people on the opposite deck who could stand.

The ground was full of dead people, the pungent smell of sulfur and blood was blown by the sea breeze, and everywhere there were tumbling seriously and lightly wounded, the dead fell to the ground, blood flowed from the bottom of them, and the dense crowd that had been standing on the entire deck was now few who could continue to stand.

After the three rounds were released, the first round of gunners had already been loaded, but they did not rush to stand up and play, but together with the rest of their comrades, they made way for a few passages.

A squadron of jumping soldiers scurried through the passage.

Everyone looked at them, including the Dutchman who was still marching on the other side.

They were blinded by the fire, at this time can they deeply understand what is the array salvo of the fireman, why is it so powerful, and there are so many partners killed, just three rounds of volleys, like a storm, but also like the autumn wind sweeping the leaves to kill and wound most of their hands, now at this time no one has any confidence to stop the Chinese from jumping gang, but after the terrible nightmare, there is still an even more terrible situation, in front of these Dutch, wearing multiple layers of iron armor, iron helmets, iron masks, Jumping soldiers with protective gear all appeared.

The little red-haired Dutchman who had just said that he wanted to remove the scalp of the Chinese as a trophy was already stunned, his whole body was shaking, and his hand holding the short axe was also shaking, and the axe in his hand was also shaking.

At this time, there were no officers who came out to order their subordinates to resist, and everyone knew that resistance was also futile, and it was impossible to be an opponent at all.

Europeans are no strangers to heavy armor warriors, in their long Middle Ages dominated the battlefield is the knights, the role of civilians is very few, even insignificant, civilians can only be rebels, such as Robin Hood, who is good at using bows and arrows, in the orthodox knightly war, the role of the archer is also a consumable, the final word is wearing heavy armor, the whole body is wrapped like a knight, on the battlefield, hundreds of civilians composed of an army, in the face of these ironclad knights can only be a rout, can only deal with knights.

As soon as the jumping soldiers appeared, they were already the first to take the lead, and of course their skills were also first-class and tough, and the veterans of this generation did not worry about other things every day, just training.

On the Taiwan side, because of the need to practice jumping, the content of the training has added a lot of climbing courses. And from Kuandian got a lot of mountain heavy infantry to come, originally had a climbing training foundation, which was of great help to the boat jumping gang, these soldiers, although wearing seventy pounds of heavy armor, their physical fitness is enough to wear armor for long-distance marches, and short-distance battlefield outbreaks are not a problem...... I don't know how many times I skip when I train.
