When the shot put whistled out of the barrel, the artillery team that broke into the camp was also engrossed in preparing to move the cannon forward after the opponent's artillery was fired.

There are also people staring at the ground, although judging that the range of the artillery can not reach this side, but also to worry about the bounce of lead bullets, on the ground of the river beach, the soil is relatively soft, the damage of the ricochet will not be too large, as long as it is dodged in time, there is no big problem, at this time it can really be said that between the lightning and flint, everyone is nervous.

But after the whistling sound approached, the soldiers of these artillery teams understood, and they were immediately dumbfounded, the opponent's artillery could hit so far.

From contempt to shock, the psychological change in this was only an instant, and the artillery team that broke into the camp was all huddled together, and it exploded immediately.

That's right, the salvo of eight cannons, as long as the people near the landing point are scattered and run away, there will indeed be no damage, but how can the pace of the people in the outer circle and the inner circle be so good, not to mention that there are gun trucks and gunpowder trucks in the middle to block it, such an explosion, the scene is suddenly chaotic, everyone is chaotic, pushing each other.

As a result, except for those in the outermost circle, none of the others ran away, and even in this pushing confusion, it was a moment, and the flight time of the shells in mid-air was very short.

Eight shot puts, none of which missed, achieved the best killing effect, and after the flesh and blood flew sideways, it was a terrible scream, and no one thought that the artillery range of the Shandong officers and soldiers was so far.

Artillery is just an auxiliary branch of the army for the invasion army, destroying the city defense during the siege, and disrupting the enemy's formation during the field battle, but in the first round of confrontation, it was so miserable by the artillery of the officers and soldiers, Hao Shaoqi was still unexpected, and the formation of the position behind the artillery team was even more commotion.

Guo Liang stared at the artillery team in front of him. Seeing that the opponent's artillery team was already scattered and fleeing after the first round of bombardment on its own side, and eight shells took dozens of lives at once, I couldn't help but feel a little regretful in my heart, marching on the river, the artillery can't be too heavy, if you take the six-pounder cannon, this round of salvo fire, the artillery team that broke into the army can be washed away directly.

But. The soldiers who broke into the camp, especially these elite soldiers, were also extremely brave, although this round of shooting was not small. But it won't let them all run away.

The reason for the rout was that the artillery soldiers of the Jiaozhou battalion cleaned the gun chamber with the stunned eyes of the intruding army. Reload the ammunition, if it doesn't break up, I'm afraid the second round of shelling will be smashed.

After that attack on Caozhou City, Guo Liang was reprimanded by Li Menghao, and was slapped several times by his brother Guo Dong when he went home. He also regarded it as a great shame and watched other generals make military achievements. The spring breeze was proud, and the more Guo Liang felt stimulated, he really turned the stimulation into motivation.

But since the battle in Caozhou, the Jiaozhou battalion has basically not used artillery in the battles, which made Guo Liang more and more depressed, and he held his breath in his heart. To be shown on the battlefield.

He was given that opportunity today. It turned out that he did a good job, watching the artillerymen reload their ammunition. Guo Liang desperately recalled the location of a few bamboo poles in his mind, and shouted loudly:

"Fifty steps forward!!"

The soldiers on both sides of the artillery immediately carried out the order, two soldiers pushing the wheelbarrow behind them with tools and ammunition, and the rest of the men moved forward together.

Without the drag of the horses, the artillery movement was obviously much slower this time.

Li Meng was in front of the horse team, his plan was no different from Hao Shaoqi, it was nothing more than to use artillery to disrupt the opponent's formation first, and then the horse team rushed over, who would have thought that the other party would also use this method. Things on the battlefield change quickly, so what is the predetermined plan.

However, his subordinates completely complied, and after the first round of shelling, Tang Er was about to start letting the horse team move forward slowly, and Li Meng said in a deep voice:

"Don't move, the horse team will give the order, and the fire and gun soldiers of the Ma Gang Department will be transferred to the front, and the artillery team will be followed closely behind, if the enemy soldiers are attacking, shoot in three sections."

The soldiers agreed loudly, and rode to the back, leaving a gap between the horse team and the team, and the fire gun soldiers were not as strict as the foot soldiers, and ran forward along this gap.

On the side of Hao Shaoqidi's camp, naturally he would not let this powerful earth artillery get close, and some generals also transferred a horse team that was ready to charge, preparing to take down the eight cannons that did not know whether they were alive or dead.

The wooden stick that compacted the ammunition was still stuffed in the barrel, although the artillery was pushing the cannon, but he was also nervously looking at the movement on the opposite side, Guo Liang was also nervous, this artillery was originally on the left side of the big array, and there was no need to charge into battle, but today this artillery is used in general with the firecrackers, so that Guo Liang is indeed nervous.

Seeing that the cavalry on the opposite side began to move, he was even more in his throat here, but at this time he heard the sound of dense footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, a large number of firecrackers followed closely.

The Ming firecrackers and even the European firecrackers are no different from the soldiers with spears, and the commanders are all the commanders of the troops, but Li Meng has a need for the firearms to be used alone, so each battalion has a firearms commander, who is responsible for the training of the firearms on weekdays.

In wartime, if the general has a separate use of the firearm, then the firearm commander leads the army into battle, and it is still used as a subordinate of the general manager on weekdays.

And the people who command these firearms commanders in wartime are generally the guards of the generals, for example, at this time Wang Hai rode to the front of the battle.

The firearms commanders led the firecrackers according to their battalions, and although they were scattered, the closer they got to the artillery, the more they gradually corrected their formation and formed a line under the orders of their commander.

The eight guns opened a line of several hundred paces, and the musketeers spread out according to this line, and the artillery advanced slowly, and the musketeers adjusted their line and loaded the muskets at this step.

Hao Shaoqi thought that the officers and soldiers had the same plan as himself, and the horse team on this side was scattered, and the other party could only use the horse team to hedge, which used the spear phalanx to resist the cavalry charge, and the camp could withstand the officers and soldiers, but the officers and soldiers could not use this method to resist the cavalry who broke into the camp.

The horse team on Hao Shaoqi's side is the elite of Shaanxi, Gansu, Jinyu and Henan. He has enough confidence in this team.

The artillery bombardment was just now, and his side had already lost for a while, but these eight guns, Hao Shaoqi didn't think that he could change anything, and the horse team stepped forward to overturn the artillery, then everything would be fine.

Seeing a large number of stragglers rushing out of the rear team and following behind the horse team, it didn't look like a troop with long soldiers from a distance, Hao Shaoqi was even more puzzled in his heart.

Fang Cai's own artillery team stepped forward. The guards on both sides were still holding spears and spears, what was the other party doing if they were so unconventional.

Now he doesn't dare to laugh at the soldiers and horses in Shandong, this military horse gives him a different feeling than any army in the Ming Dynasty. It's weird.

Seeing that the horse team had already rushed out, Hao Shaoqi shook his head. He whispered to a deputy beside him, and said anxiously:

"Let the "old dangdang" horse team rush, our own horse team will give me a little bit, don't rush up stupidly! ”

The deputy grasped that "Lao Dangdang" was the army left in Henan when he broke into the camp. King Chuang came over and led the crowd to vote, but there was obviously some difference between him and Hao Shaoqi and them. Among the troops in Hao Shaoqidi, there is also a mixture of soldiers and horses, and some local people from Henan can easily command and move.

The cavalry who broke into the camp did not rush in a swarm, and several teams of people still barely pulled away from each other, and the horse team belonging to the "old dangdang" was already rushing to the front, and the adjutant said it a little late. But the distance is still slowly widening.

Don't rush stupidly. It's not that you don't rush, just look at the situation on the other side. Cavalry charge, if it is not heavy cavalry, light cavalry is still fast, those in the front do the same, and the rear may not be.

In a huge battlefield, it takes a while for each unit to come from its own position to the place where the battle is located, and the battlefield currently selected by both sides is the direction of artillery advance.

The horse team that broke into the camp had already begun to increase, and Guo Liang's artillery had only advanced more than thirty steps forward, but he could already see the clothes of the opposing cavalry.

"The artillery lay on its stomach, on both sides of the artillery."

After Guo Liang gave this order, he saw that the artillerymen were all lying down, and he also lay down, holding his head in both hands.

Behind Guo Liang, there were already lined up in formation, the horse team used to seize the artillery, and there were almost 300 cavalry rushing to the front, the momentum was violent, and the line was very open.

Wang Hai had already dismounted, his waist knife unsheathed, his knife back resting on his shoulder, and slowly stepped forward with the brigade of firecrackers, and the firearm commander at the right end of each column was aiming at Wang Hai's movements.

"One hundred and fifty steps...... One hundred and twenty steps...... One hundred steps ......"

His mouth kept muttering, this is Wang Hai's visual estimation of the distance of the opponent's cavalry, and when he saw that he was one hundred and twenty paces, Wang Hai raised the knife in his hand, and the firearms commanders of each platoon shouted in unison:

"Ready"

The firecrackers had already finished loading their ammunition and raised their firearms, Wang Hai's knife slashed forward very fiercely, and he shouted:

"Fire!!"

As soon as he made this action, the commander of the fire in the first row shouted:

"Fire!!"

Hundreds of firearms rang out in unison, and the sound of "bang" was instantaneous, and the entire battlefield was immediately filled with white gunsmoke.

Hao Shaoqi almost got up from his horse, wanting to see the situation on the battlefield hundreds of steps away, but the amount of black powder was too large to see clearly.

He could only hear the miserable howl of the people, the neighing of the horses, and the fact that the other party dared to use a firearm to open fire from such a long distance, and this kind of unreasonable thing made him extremely surprised, and when he heard this miserable howl, he knew that the shooting was very effective, and his face turned black.

Fortunately, he ordered in advance, and the back row was already far away, and when he saw that the front was wrong, he turned his horse and turned to both sides.

The horses hadn't run yet, and it didn't take too much trouble to turn, but after all, it was a change of direction, and the horse team was still in a lot of confusion. Hao Shaoqi was still frowning there, but several generals on the side were scolding:

"Straight lady thief, why did the cavalry of our brigade rush over, but these people behind them fled from the battle."

The people who scolded were not Hao Shaoqi's descendants, but from other leaders of the Henan Liukou Brigade, Hao Shaoqi's face was even more ugly, but he didn't say anything.

After the first row of firecrackers is fired, these hundreds of firecrackers are not small, but the accuracy cannot be too high. Despite the smoke of gunpowder, you can still roughly tell that the other party is charging towards this side, at least half of the horses did not hit, and these elite horsemen of the intruding army are indeed not bad.

In the case of frightened horses, they can still control their mounts and continue to charge forward, which is much stronger than most officers and soldiers, but the fire of the Jiaozhou battalion is a three-stage shot.

"First row, fall!!"

At the right end of the first row, the firearms commander shouted. The soldiers of the first row immediately squatted on the ground with their firearms, and the commander of the second row was counting the time after the first row shouted. According to the code, within five counts. If a soldier in the front row does not crouch, he is guilty of military law.

The day-to-day queue training made the soldiers in the Jiaozhou camp have a mechanized response to the password, and the soldiers in the first row squatted down after the order. Those who did not hear because they were too loud. But he followed closely the reaction of his comrades-in-arms.

"Fire!!"

The firearms commander of the second row shouted at the top of his voice, and the second row of ground firearms was also fired, and the cavalry of those homeless people was really brave and abnormal, and after being hit head-on, they did not run away, they still formed up the formation and continued to rush, but they knew. The opponent's firearms are so powerful. If you run away with your back, I am afraid that the casualties will be greater.

It can only be to continue to charge. After the opponent's firecracker fires a round, there will be a gap in the reload, and just after the horses are suppressed, the finishing team rushes up, and the second round of firecrackers is also fired.

"Second row, fall!!"

"Fire!!"

Immediately after that, the guns of the third faction started again, and the soldiers in the first three rows of "Third Platoon, Fall" all squatted down, and the soldiers in the back who did not fire raised their guns and waited for orders.

On the battlefield in the west, since the appearance of firearms, there began to be a foggy theory of the battlefield, black powder smoke and the dust raised by the cavalry and infantry marching on the ground, which was enough to obscure everyone's vision.

After three rounds of continuous shooting, some of the opposites were unable to see clearly, and the commanders at all levels and Wang Hai listened to the movement calmly.

The continuous loud noise, the miserable howl in the battlefield, and the lingering smoke made Hao Shaoqi's front of the battle silent, and Hao Shaoqi's henchmen and guards muttered in a low voice:

"Even when Lu Xiangsheng led the troops to chase us that day, I didn't see such an official

Hao Shaoqi's cold order:

"All teams are on alert, no chaos, cut off in violation of orders, each will return to their own team, waiting for the order!!"

The generals who originally regarded this battle as relatively easy all listened to the order and dispersed towards their respective teams, Hao Shaoqi whispered to the adjutant general:

"Gather the horse team, wait for the fight or run, listen to my orders!"

The deputy general hurriedly went, Hao Shaoqi's eyes were also staring at the center of the battlefield, in the Kaifeng area in spring, especially near the Yellow River, the wind was still not small, and after a while, the smoke and smoke and dust were scattered.

Three consecutive attacks, thousands of lead pellets were shot one after another, and the effect was really not small, more than 300 cavalry fell in front of the eight artillery, and some of them were seriously injured and not dead, and the men and horses were struggling in the pile of corpses. All the soldiers who broke into the camp when they saw this scene gasped.

Guo Liang stood up, shook his head, patted the dust on his body behind him, and only then did the guns shoot continuously, so that the artillerymen who were lying on their stomachs were afraid, on the one hand, they were afraid that the rogue horses would step on, and on the other hand, they were afraid that the firearms on this side would not be able to hit.

Looking at the battle situation in front of him, Guo Liang was also excited in his heart, and yelled at the people around him:

"Brothers, now it's up to us to see our artillery team!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there were earth-shattering cheers in the array of the Jiaozhou battalion, and the morale of the soldiers of the artillery team was high, and even the degree of pushing the artillery was accelerated by a few points, but it would not go too far, because the place where the artillery had stopped, ten steps further, were the corpses of people and horses.

It can be seen how close the cavalry rushed to the army, this artillery is very heavy, and the iron-clad wheels are a little difficult on the flat ground, not to mention the obstruction of the corpses of people and horses, but according to the distance between the two sides, the artillery must be about twenty paces closer before it can bombard the opponent's main formation.

Guo Liang gritted his teeth and was just about to give an order, when the sound of horses' hooves behind him, the herald had already rushed over, and said quickly:

"The commander's order. On-the-spot guns, you don't have to move forward, just turn back to the battalion after shooting. ”

This military order was not specifically given to Guo Liang, Wang Hai also received the order, and except for the two platoons of firecrackers who continued to move forward, the rest of the people began to turn back into the formation.

The remaining musketeers were to keep the escort artillery team, but since they didn't have to move forward, it saved a lot of trouble, and the ammunition was already loaded anyway. Several artillerymen stepped forward with wooden sticks to consolidate the ammunition, and after Guo Liang shouted, the eight guns opened fire in unison.

After the hundreds of horses who captured the artillery were killed by the firecrackers from Shandong, there was no way to deal with it for half a day. I had to wait for the Jiaozhou battalion to act first.

The length of the range of the eight guns was already staggering, but Hao Shaoqi's large array was located. But it was more than 400 steps away from this artillery, and watching the other party open fire, but the people in front of him scattered slightly, and there was no confusion among the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.

Although the maximum firing range is more than 300 paces, the ground of the river beach is soft. The buckshot was heavy, and the ricochet was not large. But Li Meng's camp was back, but Hao Shaoqi came in the opposite direction, the distance was so far, but the soil was not soft, eight lead bullets, one of the shells landed on the ground very well, and it was directly ejected.

The shell bounced into the intruder's infantry array. No less than ten people were immediately swept down by buckshot. The people around were startled, and they saw that the muzzles of the other party's eight guns were still facing this side. Immediately dodge in all directions.

Everyone has always had a misunderstanding, the killing of solid shells is only at the landing point, it is bad luck to be hit, and then it will hurt people if it bursts up the ground and rocks, but in fact, the solid shells are flying out with a huge momentum, and after landing, there will basically be a rebound, and the rebound changes direction, which is the biggest kill, and the solid shell is not only a point kill, but also has a surface effect.

Among these people who broke into the army, they were injured by the ricocheting projectile, of course, the distance is too far at the moment, and it is impossible to count on this luck in every cannon.

Guo Liang saw that the cannon had an effect, and he was very happy, thinking that today's performance, he must have won the jackpot in front of the marshal, and the artillerymen who were leading the horses followed up, put the hands and feet on the car, and pulled the cannon to turn around.

But before he turned around on his horse, Hao Shaoqi looked at the queue that was a little uncontrollable, and then saw that the other party had always been in an orderly queue, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help jumping a few times.

This officer and soldier were afraid that he could not deal with the ground, Hao Shaoqi raised his arm, and wanted to order the array to take a step back, but he hesitated but did not make a sound.

Hao Shaoqi is among the generals who break into the camp, and he can be regarded as having the role of the city government, and the king of Chuang does not say it when he is in trouble, and now this power has risen greatly, and he really has the hope of chasing the deer, what status will everyone have in the camp in the future, and what benefits will be shared, this is already a problem that everyone should consider.

Under the command of King Chuang, Liu Zongmin is a military general, and this position cannot be shaken by everyone, but Tian Jianxiu, Hao Shaoqi, Liu Fangliang, Gao Yigong, Li Guo and others have no superior position, it is completely based on everyone's performance.

Hao Shaoqi was appointed as the general of this expedition, and he was extremely happy in his heart, this was a great opportunity.

And he also knows that King Chuang is in a hurry to besiege Kaifeng, and the reinforcements from Shandong alone are not enough for him to withdraw the siege.

What's more, after breaking into the camp and breaking Luoyang City and killing King Fu, his morale became extremely high, and if the 20,000 elite officers and soldiers who came to help from a distance were not victorious, it was because he was not capable enough.

I can't retreat, but look at the soldiers and horses in front of me, where it is easy to defeat, Hao Shaoqi smiled bitterly in his heart, thinking that I am afraid that it is not defeated, and it is fortunate to be undefeated.

Li Meng held a monocular clairvoyant in his hand, carefully observing the opponent's array, although the fight was fierce, but Hao Shaoqi's side was injured at most, and there was no chaos in the big array.

Hao Shaoqi, the general who led the troops on the opposite side, was not reckless, if he was like those opponents in the past, he rushed and struck, or retreated in a panic, the Jiaozhou battalion would always have a means to take advantage of the situation, but it was so steady, and the careful testing of each other was a little difficult.

There was a standoff between the armies of each side, but there was a brief lull on the battlefield. Hao Shaoqi took a deep breath, the more he pondered and couldn't understand the current situation, and he was also extremely worried in his heart.

"The rear army slowly retreats ......"

Hao Shaoqi gave an order to his own soldiers, and a henchman stepped forward and was about to speak, but Hao Shaoqi understood what they were going to say, and said in a solemn voice:

"Our own soldiers and horses don't move, and the horse team is here."

If their own team withdraws, the entire brigade is afraid that it will collapse, and Hao Shaoqi understands this truth. Now the situation is simple, but it has not yet reached the point where it cannot be managed, and this kind of big war cannot be decided in a moment.

In the middle of the battlefield lay a mass of corpses. Pushing the cannon is already unpushable, if the gun cart is stuck by the corpse pile. There is no way to advance or retreat, and if the opponent's cavalry infantry comes up again, it will be a little troublesome to deal with it.

Watching Wang Hai lead the firecracker team to retreat slowly, Li Meng thought that maybe he could let the firecracker team force up first, and then the horse team rushed up. was about to give the order, but the opponent's formation changed. Picking up the clairvoyant mirror and taking a closer look, the horse team, which was a little chaotic because of the cannon, had already recovered to its original state.

Almost a hundred horsemen lined up in front of the formation, seeing this, Li Meng put down the clairvoyant mirror and let the teams of ground fire soldiers return to their own team.

Hao Shaoqi's light cavalry squad was precisely to deal with the long-range weapons in the Jiaozhou camp. It took three combos of thousands of men to kill the three hundred horsemen who were charging intensively. This is still in the state of the opponent's surprise, if the opponent is in a state of being prepared. The cavalry rushing up in a loose formation would not be so effective with firearms.

Li Meng sighed, the tens of thousands of soldiers who broke into the camp in front of him, except for the 1,000 Tartars he encountered in Qihe County, could be regarded as the strongest enemy.

But the more such an enemy, the more able to test and train their troops, since you can't take advantage of it, then use regular methods to capture the other party!

"Pass on my military order, Ma Gang and Zhao Nengbu each have three battalions to fight and break through the two wings of the thief."

Li Meng ordered in a muffled voice, and each herald hurriedly rode to report the news, where Li Mengdi was, behind him was the pro-soldier camp and horse team, Wang Hai and Tang Er saw the order, and hurriedly turned back to prepare their subordinates.

"General, why don't we press up and beat these officials with bows, arrows and firearms......

"you, blind? Don't you see that this officer's firearms are powerful? ”

The general who was scolded by Hao Shaoqi had a little red on his face, but he was still a little unwilling to say:

"If we continue to be so stiff, we can't move, we can only let these dogs beat us in a different way, isn't this a loss for nothing?"

Hao Shaoqi didn't scold when he heard this, stared at the general, nodded slightly, and shouted at the herald behind him:

"The first, second, and fourth teams of Nanyang, the third and fourth teams of Henan, go out to attack, the sixth team, the seventh team and the second team of Henan, separated by a hundred steps, and then follow!"

Running from Sichuan to Henan, hundreds of thousands of people gathered in a hurry, and the camp did not yet have a complete establishment and level, so it relied on the names of places in various places to identify the troops, a team was between 2,000 and 3,000 people, and the Nanyang mentioned by Hao Shaoqi above was the homeless people from Nanyang Mansion, which did not refer to Henan Province, but to Henan Province, where Luoyang was located, where Li Zicheng gathered a lot of soldiers and horses.

The subordinate general who was scolded by Hao Shaoqi saw that the master general adopted his opinion, and his face was flushed with excitement for a while, regretting his resentment, and said loudly at the moment:

"General, the small one is willing to lead the troops into battle, and the big official dog is broken!"

Hao Shaoqi's expression was still very serious, ordering the brigade to fight, the big drum in the army had already begun to beat, the leaders at all levels shouted loudly, and the soldiers also began to move forward slowly, looking at the majesty of the army.

Suddenly, there was some other rhythm in the drumming, and the drums of the officers and soldiers on the opposite side also began to beat, and the six squares on the two wings of the officers and soldiers slowly moved out. The musketeers were skirmishers, walking on the four corners of the phalanx of spears, and the spearmen were all standing upright with their spears and marching forward in a neat formation.

This formation is really too neat, or compared to Hao Shaoqi, the elite foot soldiers composed of the homeless elites are too neat, the spears are like a forest, almost all of them are erected straight, and each square team seems to be a huge cuboid, like a person pressed over.

At present, on the edge of the Yellow River, the officers and soldiers and the camp are beginning to send their own infantry troops, and the infantry is the largest and cheapest type of troops, but the dispatch of infantry in a battle represents the time to decide the victory or defeat.

The soldiers and horses that broke into the camp were in a commotion. But it also has its own rules, that is, there is still cohesion in each team, and there is a clear gap between teams.

The square team of the Jiaozhou battalion is as if it has been measured by a ruler, the distance between the three squares on both sides is almost the same, and the strides of the soldiers are almost the same, and there is a drummer playing the drum on the right side of each square, and the soldiers are adjusting their pace with the drum.

The musketeers at the four corners are mostly loaded. Their steps were a little faster, and the landingers blew air on the fire of the arquebus, allowing it to continue burning.

Such a team moves like a mountain. When the enemy saw this mountain-like pressure first, his heart was generally frightened by three points. But these foot soldiers are not afraid to break into the camp.

One fifth of these homeless warriors did not have decent weapons in their hands, and most of them were wearing cloth clothes, and there were many who did not cover their bodies, but they were not afraid at all, but shouted and scolded and approached.

The courage of his soldiers did not give Hao Shaoqi any comfort. He was still watching the movements of the other party, several brigades in Henan Prefecture. It's already his old foundation.

But Hao Shaoqi was still not sure in his heart, he looked at it for a while, and whispered to the field general:

"You lead your men to prepare, if it's not good, these teams don't have to resist, let them withdraw!"

When the general heard this, his eyes popped out. However, Hao Shaoqi's face was stern. And this general also saw the square team on the opposite side, and knew that things were not as simple as he thought. When he hugged his fist, he led his own soldiers to wait for the time to be noticed.

Hao Shaoqi looked back at the troops behind him, the rear team was already ready to retreat, there were still two places between Lanyang County and Kaifeng City where they could camp and obstruct, where to retreat and resist, you can also breathe a sigh of relief temporarily. When the two sides are at war, the most feared thing is to plan defeat before fighting.

But he didn't care about this, Hao Shaoqi's back road was almost arranged, and he was staring at the opposing team.

The infantry teams on both sides were dispatched on both flanks, and Li Meng was there to observe the enemy formation, so it was said that there was no leisure on this battlefield, but Li Meng inexplicably had an idea, his level of use of troops may not be different from the general on the opposite side.

Li Meng immediately denied this comparison of his own, if he did not have the advantage of this weapon and training, and commanded in battle, I am afraid that he would not be as good as the other party.

Qian Zong of each battalion is holding an axe and gun in the first row of the square, the first person on the right, he is surrounded by a drummer beating the drum, in order not to affect the progress of the foot soldiers, of course, it is also limited by the manufacturing capacity of the Jiaozhou battalion, the soldiers walking in the first two rows are leather armor inlaid with iron leaves, and the head is covered with a thick felt hat with iron sheets, but the deputy can have a good cotton armor, and Qian Zong is wearing a half-body plate armor.

As the two sides continued to approach, the leader of the Jiaozhou camp firecrackers had already begun to order his men to check their firearms and prepare for battle, while the foot soldiers who broke into the camp on the opposite side also stopped a little.

This pause made the already somewhat scattered camp foot soldiers even more chaotic, but it was obvious that the pace had slowed down a lot.

The rhythm of the movement of the hostile sides on the battlefield is very obvious, not to mention such a move, the officers of the Jiaozhou battalion who led the team were a little puzzled, but they immediately understood.

A piece of feather arrows scattered in the air was thrown down towards the Jiaozhou battalion's square, these rogues were really different from the troops that had fought in the Jiaozhou battalion before, and there was actually a "big bow", which came from the Mongolian tribes in the steppe, and was generally used when the cavalry dismounted and shot on foot.

The big bow is almost half a person high, and the range of the hanging shot is almost nearly 200 steps, which is much farther than the range of the firearm.

The Shaanxi-Gansu-Ming army and the Mongolian Tumut and Tatar divisions have been fighting for many years, and the other party's skills have also learned a lot, and many of these Qin troops have defected to the camp.

The archers who use the big bow must be in the second and third rows of the line, just for the effect of surprise, but this big bow is not something that ordinary people can use, and this arrow in the sky is also rare. Although there are few such arrows, they are also weapons for killing.

When the firecrackers saw the flying feathered arrows, they hurriedly ran forward, and the arrows shot by the big bow were originally aimed at the spear phalanx. The soldiers in the first row held their spears in one hand and covered their faces with the other, and the whole squad was still advancing, but everyone was shaking the spears in their hands.

The spear shaft of more than ten feet shook, and the bottom was quite stable, but the shaking amplitude of the upper part was very large, and the range of the long arrows shot by the big bow was an advantage, and the degree was not too fast, and the spears of the infantry phalanx were shaking, and almost eighty percent of the arrows shot were knocked out.

Counting those who shot into the air, there were not many arrows that were fired into the formation, and the felt hats with iron plates on the heads of the soldiers were also somewhat protective.

But this round of arrow rain, more than 30 soldiers fell in the infantry phalanx of the Jiaozhou battalion, the soldiers screamed and fell, the companions around him ignored it, just dodged the fallen spears, silently straddled the body of the companions, and continued to move forward, if it was injured, someone would help after the team passed, if it was dead, then it would be dead, how could there be immortals on the battlefield.

Such a scene was not expected by the soldiers who broke into the camp, the big bow was fired, the pace of their own soldiers slowed down, they were ready to charge, the other side was shot by big arrows, and the formation was bound to be chaotic.

Slowing down was actually to prepare for the charge, and the big bow was shot, and the soldiers who were familiar with this process shouted and rushed forward.

The arrows were about to fall, and the leaders shouted in unison, and the foot soldiers who broke into the front of the camp rushed out, and they faced the Jiaozhou battalion fire front that had been loaded with ammunition.
