Just when the Qing army was arraying and preparing to attack, behind the Ming army's front on the opposite side, Chen Wen sat on his "big white", and after noticing the movement of the Qing army, he took over the earthen megaphone from Zhang Jun, who conjured an iron horn from behind him like a monkey.

"Nantang battalion, array!"

At the sound of an order, the four squads behind the Chinese army's firearms team immediately lined up and stood in front of the defensive line; The killer teams of the Nantang Battalion Mandarin Duck Formation Killer Team B, C and D Posts that blocked the road set up a vertical formation to resist the opponent's projection weapon attack; As for the first post, he still stood by Chen Wen's side, waiting for the general's orders.

After the entire battle formation was laid out at this time, all twenty of the Townsmen lined up in a line that was identical to the white line drawn by lime powder a stone's throw away from the formation, and they received the order to "die to those who cross the line"! Just like what Chen Wen wrote on the sign opposite the battlefield, but the famous diplomatic slang of the Republic era that Chen Wen added out of bad taste is missing at the back.

The reason why Chen Wen is like this is nothing more than to provoke the Qing army to attack as soon as possible. Although he didn't know why the Qing army was in a hurry to catch up, if it dragged on until night or tomorrow, with the number of cavalry of the Qing army, it would be difficult for him to complete the task of protecting the people to the south.

Fortunately, the standard battalion is a newly victorious division, and the morale is booming, but there are two sides to everything, and the victory in the first battle also has the burden of morale. During this time, he ridiculed with words, coupled with the general flag of the "old camp garrison of Dalanshan", which was to induce the Qing army to fight a decisive battle with the Nantang camp here, and it seemed that the effect was okay.

Due to the excessive number of horse traps in front of the battle, the Qing army obviously did not have the idea of sending cavalry to continue performing free gymnastics for the time being. I saw that the commander of the Qing army gave an order, and the infantry of the Qing army marched forward in formation, but unlike the battle of Siming Lake, the first two rows of the Qing army were sword and shield soldiers, and the pikemen who should have been in the front were all placed behind the sword and shield soldiers, and the archers were arranged in the last row, as if they were not ready to play any role at all.

There is almost no big difference between the Qing army and the Ming army in terms of armor, because the armor of the Qing army in the early days was snatched from the Ming army, several defeats in Liaodong, and two "great victories" in Guanning, and several breaches after the Yisi Change, the Qing army snatched a lot of armor.

However, the difference is not without it, the soldiers of the standard battalion here are all wearing gray-blue cloth armor; And Ming Chonghuo De, still red, the cloth armor of the Ming Army in Dalan Mountain inevitably has a little red. In addition, the most famous lightning rod, which only officers and cavalrymen wear, did not have on the heads of the ordinary green battalion soldiers who had begun to advance, and they wore a hemispherical helmet, with a small tassel on it, and three leather tuns on the left, right and back below, which looked very strange; The soldiers of the Ming army are often seen in movies and TV series, and they are also nicknamed flying saucer helmets by later generations.

Standing high and looking far away, sitting on the back of the "big white", Chen Wen clearly saw the deployment of the Qing army, even if he had never experienced the battle formation, he also clearly understood that the opponent obviously knew that the Nantang battalion had no artillery, and even there were few firearms, and the sword and shield soldiers in the front two rows were in order to restrain the archers from shooting.

Sure enough, it's an old fritter.

Chen Wen squinted his eyes and thought about how to deal with it, but he couldn't think of anything because of his serious lack of experience in battle formations. Seeing that the Qing army stepped across the white line and entered the land of one stone, Chen Wen ordered the archers to shoot. As in the previous plan, the two squads in the first row fired horizontally, while the two squads in the second row fired from their backs.

The arrows crossed the distance between the two armies, and the arrows that shot out of the hands of the Ming archers were instantly shot above the battle formation of the Qing army. It's just that the effect of this shooting is not very good, the sword and shield soldiers in the first row of the Qing army held shields to resist the frontal shots, and the sword and shield soldiers in the second row raised their shields to prevent the arrows from the top of the head after the Ming army fired from the back, only a small number of arrows passed through the gaps, or crossed the first two rows of sword and shield soldiers to form a limited attack on those very few "unlucky eggs".

It's just that even so, almost all the soldiers in the first few rows of the Qing army's left battalion were wearing double armor, and the arrows that came from afar were already at the end of the crossbows, and most of them were only nailed to the outermost armor of these soldiers, pushing the Qing soldiers who hit them and staggering, and did not achieve the purpose of killing.

Liu Da, the sword and shield soldier of the left battalion, has now been promoted to the rank of chief by virtue of his exploits in the battle of Siming Lake, but in fact, it only makes his position in the battle formation a little behind, and he no longer has to take the risk of throwing javelins, throwing axes and other weapons in front of the battle to destroy the opponent's battle formation as he did at the beginning.

The shooting of the Ming army here can be described as an understatement, there is no level that a normal army should have, only one soldier in Liu Dashi was shot by a bow and arrow, or shot in the chest with the thickest armor, and barely pushed this soldier, and completely exhausted the kinetic energy.

Liu Da glanced at it, and his luck was probably bad, because the Ming army on the opposite side only had about two dozen archers, and the arrows fired were really pitiful, and there were even fewer that could hit and shoot not shields.

At this moment, the Ming army has been shooting for several rounds, and the Qing army has advanced nearly half the distance, and there are more than ten or twenty steps to start throwing javelins and flying axes to destroy the formation and rush into formation, but until now, there is only one stupid who obviously doesn't know how to bow his head and move forward has been shot in the face, and it seems that he will lose at least two teeth. In addition, there was no one killed in battle, and there were still some injured, but unfortunately the damage caused almost did not affect the combat effectiveness at all.

This shooting is not even as much of a threat to the Qing army as the horse trap on the ground, at least a few soldiers of the Qing army were caught by these horse traps, but the bow and arrow shooting was almost useless, Liu Da had never seen such a funny army in more than ten years of fighting.

"It turns out that this group of thieves is more rubbish than those in Siming Lake."

Liu Da clearly remembered that the early firepower of the Ming army on the shore of Siming Lake was very fierce, and even a veteran like him was terrified. However, once they got closer, they no longer had the previous suppressive force, and after the three throws, they were even more pressed by the richer combat experience of the Bid Battalion. If it weren't for Shangfeng never giving the order for a general attack, how could he have been taken a lot of credit by the Zhongying under the defection of that general?

As for the current Ming army, although it was called the most powerful battalion leader in the Siming Mountain area by the general, it did not even retain the only few advantages of the Siming Mountain bandits, and it seemed that it was just nonsense. It is estimated that as long as the javelin is thrown in a while, the head should be harvested, and then rush into the family of the group of thieves to grab a yellow flower girl and have a good time.

Thinking of this, Liu Da couldn't help licking his lips, and the fragrant scene that had surfaced in his mind during the Battle of Siming Lake reappeared.

"After killing all the thieves in front of you, you can grab a yellow flower girl to warm the bed!"

There is a saying that three arrows are not as good as one knife, and three knives are not as good as one shot.

It's just that there are too few archers in the front of the Nantang battalion, and the Qing army has put up a queue to restrain the archers' shots, which makes the killing and wounding even more limited. In fact, if it is a firecracker, the effect will definitely be much better, after all, the two are not the same in terms of kinetic energy, and the shield was also eliminated by the firecracker in history. It's a pity that the Nantang battalion doesn't even have a pitiful number of birds, so Chen Wencai was forced to use the terrain to strengthen the firepower on the flanks, which also exacerbated the lack of frontal firepower.

"General, there are still too few archers in front of our department."

Listening to Lou Jiye's sigh, Chen Wen knew that this was indeed the truth. It's just that he is no longer the otaku he was back then, but the backbone of the entire army, even if everyone is discouraged, he can't do it. Because once even he complains, then this army will not have to fight, and wouldn't it be easier to leave the strength to be a concubine?

"Everything is in the hands of this general, Tartar must think that our combat strength is weak at this moment, and when he meets the Mandarin Duck Array Killer Team, he will give him a good look, which will completely make him frightened!"

The words are very beautiful, but can they be like the same as when Chen Wen kept beating the drums in his heart, not as good as the last school competition, this time after all, he is in a battlefield where he has to face blood, and under the flying flesh and blood, it is difficult to say how much combat effectiveness this group of recruits can maintain.

Something had to be done!

At this moment, the Qing army has crossed the halfway road, although the trap on the ground also affects the movement speed of the Qing infantry at the same time, but the first two rows hold shields, and almost all the sharp soldiers are wearing double armor The left battalion, even if it is just cloth armor, the damage caused is minimal. The Qing army advanced steadily without the slightest stagnation.

Seeing this, Chen Wen motioned for the archers to retreat behind the three posts of B, C, and Ding, and showed up the entire battle array. And he picked up the well-made bird gun sent by Huang Zhongdao and began to load ammunition step by step.

Seeing that the archers of the Ming army began to retreat, the Qing army also accelerated its pace. After a few breaths, I saw that the sword and shield soldiers in the front row of the Qing army put their shields on their backs one after another, and then took javelins, throwing axes and other throwing weapons in their hands, rushed forward a few steps, and threw these weapons with the force of the forward rush.

"Medium!"

It is normal to throw weapons to destroy the opponent's formation after approaching, but at this moment, this Nantang battalion is by no means the traditional Ming army on the shore of Siming Lake, they occupy the forefront of each Mandarin Duck Array killer team with long players and rattan players, and set up shields to defend those teammates crouching behind them against threats from the sky.

And each of the Mandarin Duck Array killer teams is also maintaining a certain distance from each other because of the need to change formations, so that the Qing army can no longer shoot the opponent as long as they maintain their strength even if they are thrown off.

At a distance of about thirty meters, these javelins and throwing axes arrived almost instantaneously. With the exception of most of the players who were thrown into the clearing, almost all of them were blocked by the long cards and rattan cards that the two players held in accordance with the prescribed tactical moves, and only a few were thrown into the formation, causing the same incredibly low casualties.

The well-trained sword and shield soldiers of the Raising Battalion, as sharp soldiers in the army, did not observe the results of the battle just now, but flew and threw the second wave of attacks at the same time as the first shot hit the target.

"Medium!"

This time is not much better than the last time, the Nantang battalion relies on the characteristics of both attack and defense of the mandarin duck formation, in the face of the opponent's long-range throwing weapons to try to destroy the formation, with a vertical formation to reduce the force surface at the same time, with long cards and rattan cards to strengthen the frontal defense, so that the Qing army's throwing weapons are far less effective than in the battlefield.

At this moment, the second throw did not even get a single kill, only a javelin pierced the leg of a pikeman as it passed through the gap between the long card and the rattan card, and the javelin that was exhausted only brought some flesh wounds after passing through the armor.

Although Liu Da was not in this group of sword-and-shield soldiers throwing weapons, he stretched his neck, but from a lower position, he looked past the soldiers in the front rows and threw them at the Ming army opposite.

After the first throw, the Ming army still did not react in the slightest, and the squads with one long player and one rattan player were like a reef in the river of his hometown, allowing these weapons to hit like flowing water. Only one of the long players in the middle of the formation had several javelins nailed to his long cards, and after the second round of throwing by the Qing army, he didn't care to get those javelins down with his waist knife, and then restored the reef again.

Such an opponent was unheard of and unseen by him, and the whole army seemed to be a pile of reefs, unmoved by the storm. And this also made Liu Da, a veteran who had fought for more than ten years, suddenly have a hint of foreboding.

It's just that when Liu Da's premonition hadn't begun to affect his thinking, after a "bang" gunshot, the sword and shield soldier in the front row of the Qing army's formation fell to the ground with a bang after flying out a piece of red and white, while there was a burst of admiration from the side of the Ming army.

Although the double players in the front row of the Mandarin Duck Formation greatly reduced the damage of the Qing army's projection weapons, and relied on the column anti-pressure training that had been carried out before, it also withstood the first two rounds of projection of the Qing army, but it is definitely not okay to be beaten, as the main general, he must do something to boost morale, and Chen Wen's choice is to use bird guns to shoot and get the first blood for the whole army!

As a sharp soldier in the front row of the Qing army fell to the ground, his ears were filled with the praise of "General Divine Shooting", but Chen Wen's heart was full of shit luck.

Due to the problem of roads, the formation of the Qing army was relatively dense. The target he had just aimed at was clearly another sword and shield soldier next to the man who was shot, and the target was also the chest with a relatively large hit rate. However, this shot was deflected by about two meters under the effect of recoil, and one shot hit the head of the unlucky guy, which is really incredible.

Now that the initial purpose of boosting morale has been achieved, there is no need for Chen Wen to tell the truth. I saw that he blew away the smoke from the bird's mouth in a self-consciously handsome posture, and then raised the bird's gun high above his head.

"The firearms team shoots the most Tartars, and this bird gun is his!"

According to the usual practice, today when Huang Zhongdao was martyred, Chen Wen should collect this bird gun to keep a memory. However, in his opinion, a weapon is a weapon, and if it can be handed over to someone who is more able to play its due role, it will always be better to repay Huang Zhongdao's original gift than to collect it at home as an ornament.

Regardless of the workmanship of this bird's gun, it is only said that Chen Wen was rewarded for his military exploits, which is enough for the winner to show off for a long time, and everyone naturally wants to get it here.

Sure enough, as soon as this statement came out, it immediately caused a response from the firearms team, and the soldiers of the four teams turned their heads to look at the bird's gun, and their eyes also became hot, and almost everyone was bound to take it.

Chen Wen knew that these archers were all from Orion, and the skills of bow and arrow shooting were not bad, but at this time, the formation listed by the Qing army was quite disgusting, and the Qing army's financial resources were even stronger, and many sharp soldiers were wearing double armor, and the long-distance killing of bows and arrows was really not high.

However, as soon as this reward came out, not only the firearms team, but also the morale of the Mandarin Duck Array Killer Team was improved, although they did not have a share of this reward, but even the most real soldiers could imagine that since the most Tartars were shot with additional rewards, then those official rewards would definitely be honored, as long as they could defeat the Tartars.

At this time, as if in response to what they were thinking, Chen Wen picked up the iron horn again and shouted loudly: "According to military regulations, behead the standard battalion soldiers, reward fifteen taels of silver, and behead the officers according to the class!" In this operation, our department will have fewer enemies and more enemies, and we will be rewarded according to the situation after the war! ”

This sentence speaks to the hearts of all the soldiers of the Nantang battalion, as long as the Tartars are defeated, the reputation of the warriors, and the reward of beheading will come one after another, and Chen Wen even proposed the beheading of officers and the reward of fewer enemies, which is more powerful than any slogan.

Just when the soldiers of the Nantang battalion were preparing to teach the Qing army a lesson, whether it was Liu Da in the formation, or Li Rong and Xu Lei, who were under the deputy general of the Zuo Battalion, they all heard Chen Wen's statement without exception. For them, this utter disregard for the prestige of the Banner Camp is even more ironic than the phrase "Those who cross the line die, don't say it unexpectedly."

A moment later, Li Rong's flag was pressed forward, and the Qing officer who received the signal immediately ordered a third throw, this time unlike the previous two times, the pikemen had already rushed past the first two rows of sword and shield soldiers, and crouched down at a distance of nearly fifteen meters. The sword and shield soldiers who followed immediately threw the javelins and axes in their hands.

Just like when facing the coalition forces of Siming Mountain on the shore of Siming Lake, the javelins flew overhead, and the spearmen of the Qing army leaned down and charged. At this moment, there are javelins on the top and spears in front, and the Nantang battalion is about to usher in the strongest blow at the beginning of the engagement!
