Volume 2 The South Chapter 319 The Battle (55...
At the same time that Sun Chuanting, who had a strong beard, began to beat the drum and cheer, Yue Le, who was in the forward battalion, also began to shout wildly.
After withstanding several rounds of shells, most of the Qing army still rushed to a place of about 150 paces in the Pingyu army's formation. This distance is too close, and the impact of the shells is very limited.
There are archers on both wings of the Qing army, covering the firepower of most of the Ming army's tortuosers, so they are waiting for a hard hit!
Big swords and spears, hard bridges and hard horses!
This kind of thing was originally what the Qing army was best at.
Yue Le stood tall, wearing the finest heavy iron armor, wearing a gold-plated copper helmet, and a red tasseled back flag, which was very heroic and eye-catching.
In his hand is a three-foot-long eight-banner iron spear, made of high-grade fine iron, two pounds and two hands, the length is appropriate, Yue Le has worked this spear for at least ten years, between telescoping, fast and powerful, almost no one is his face to face enemy.
Even if it is the Eight Banners White Armor of the Guardian Battalion, the brave and daring men of the Forward Battalion, and the people with outstanding military achievements, they may not dare to say that Yue Le, the enemy of the iron spear in the hands of the grandfather of the country.
At this moment, Yue Le's heart was full of bloodthirsty battle intent! First the firecracker, and then the shelling, the Qing army was very embarrassed, it was him, just now he also saw the opportunity early, and lay down in the pit early, otherwise, I am afraid that the prince will not be able to eat a shell.
No matter how strong the martial arts are, in front of the muzzle, it is also given in vain.
With this kind of contempt and fear of firearms, Yue Le almost rushed to the front line, anyway, the guards around him were elite enough, and his own martial arts were outstanding.
In addition, the distance is also close, and the guards around him are very vigilant, holding shields, in case there is a firecracker to aim, they will immediately crowd Guogong to dodge.
Of course, there are dangers on the battlefield, but which of the children of the Eight Banners noble clan is not famous and rich in the battle?
If you stop the prince from rushing together, it is unreasonable.
"Inform Lu Mi that you can select the enemy general to shoot the car!"
Just when Yue Le and the others rushed to about 100 steps, the Lumi Badgers who were in the rear of the Ming army finally got the order that they had been waiting for a long time.
There are not many Lu Mi guns in the army, and during the Wanli period, the whole country spent a lot of effort to build this kind of extremely complex long-range firearm, which requires particularly high materials and craftsmanship, and after spending a lot of money and a lot of time, it is about less than 10,000 rods in reserve.
Zhu Ci once remembered reading some information, Lu Mi Gong was once sent to Liaodong or Jiubian, at most one or two thousand strokes, except for a few records, it is rare to see.
Moreover, with the expansion and prolongation of the war, the firearms of the Ming army became worse and worse, only artillery improved greatly with the arrival of European missionaries and chambered beds, and other firearms regressed.
So, where are all the Lumi guns that were once cast?
This can only be a puzzle.
Because he is now the crown prince, Zhu Ci has less than 200 Lu Mi guns in his hands, because he has to go all out to forge cannons and build ordinary firearms, and high-precision weapons like Lu Mi can only be carried and made.
Fortunately, now the Firearms Bureau has enough materials, strict management, and good treatment, and the craftsmen are very high-spirited, and the things they make are fast and good, otherwise, they would not even be able to make 200 sticks.
This time in the north, there were only 50 Lu Mi men in the infantry battalion of the three battalions of the Pingyu Army, which seemed to be very few, but in fact, a quarter of the family funds had already been taken out.
After receiving the order, the musketeers hiding in the depths of the army began to pull out the corked fire caps, charge them, and load them with bullets.
The bullet head of the Lumi gun is sharp, and it needs to be slowly smashed into the barrel with a small wooden hammer, so that the plug is tight, and the unique design of the fire gun makes the actual lethality more than 300 steps.
Of course, if you snipe at about 100 paces now, it will be more powerful and more armor-piercing.
Among the gunners, there was a young man who was aiming at one of the most obvious targets.
Before going into battle, through words, pictures, and lectures by veterans, ordinary firecrackers and Lu Mirui can clearly distinguish which one is an officer, which one is a soldier, which one is a guard, or an infantry armor, vest, or a striker.
Through the red tassels and black tassels, the bright armor and dark armor, the double armor and single armor, the color of the small flag on the back, the style, the helmet, and even the weapons in the hand, you can probably distinguish it clearly.
What is the leading urging, the distribution of Bashiku, Bashiku, Jialazhangjing and so on.
The fact that the Qing army can personally rush to the front line of the battle array at the general level is clearly recognized by these young men.
Speaking of which, the Qing army and the Ming army also have their own set of things to know the generals, and even the Qing army's followers and infantry vests, and then to the elite of the guard camp, they can be distinguished from each other.
But in any case, this set of things is far from the rank identification system of the Pingyu Army, and the young men with Lu Mi guns are struggling to find targets in the enemy formation, and once they find it, they will never relax.
It's easy to say, but it's not easy either.
Thousands of people were rushing into battle, and the battlefield was constantly fighting and shouting, and the drums were also non-stop, and every few breaths, it was a deafening artillery salvo, coupled with the crackling sound of deer strikes, and the ears were buzzing all the time.
It's okay to be noisy, but the whole battlefield is a fight of more than 10,000 people, the Qing army in the middle of the front has 4,000 people, and the wide frontal battlefield is densely packed with enemy troops, everyone has a stomach in their bodies, and everyone has long and short weapons in their hands flickering with cold light.
In this kind of thing, Zhu Cihate only trained his subordinates to a high standard according to some things of snipers in later generations, as for how the actual process was operated, how the regulations were compiled, and how to train the training, he pushed it off.
After all, this is something that no one has experienced, but fortunately, the current firecracker unit in the army is large-scale, and the Chinese officers and Taixi military attachés worked together to formulate regulations and training, and finally pulled out this elite unit with sniping as the main means of combat.
"Five...... Four...... Three...... 2. ......"
The lucky young man found the target at the first time, the other party was definitely a high-ranking general, the armor on his body was shining, and the whole person was wrapped in golden armor, which was really majestic and murderous.
In addition, there is a team of guards who follow the left and right all the time, all of whom are heavily armoured, so that I can't see that this is a noble general, that is a fool.
Seeing the other party rushing and shouting and commanding the army, this young sniper was even more certain.
The other party has been aimed, locked, and just pull the trigger.
At this time, the young firecracker's heart was beating very fast, and his mouth and throat were so dry that he couldn't even secrete a small mouthful of saliva.
At this time, this firecracker understood why the prince once said Qi Dashuai's words in front of the army, and he was not in chaos, and there was still saliva in his mouth, which was a veteran soldier.
Lying behind him, so far away, there are spearmen and halberders in front of him, as well as those ordinary firecrackers, they have been fighting for a long time, they have suffered a lot of casualties, they are hiding behind the formation, aiming at a person, the year is still so tight......
Thinking so, the young man from Huaidi slowly calmed down, his left eye closed, his right eye squinted, and in the final moment, he took a deep breath.
Pull the trigger!
The horn sounded softly, and the people around them barely paid much attention, because all the firecrackers were looking for their own targets, and no one had the leisure to watch other people's movements.
Only the young man who pulled the trigger kept staring at his target, and almost in a breath, he saw a beautiful little blood flower bloom on the other's chest.
At a distance of about 100 steps, the ballistics of ordinary firecrackers may not be so fast, and the armor-piercing ability is slightly weaker, when fighting against those unarmored banner soldiers, the power and lethality of ordinary firecrackers are not small, but when dealing with heavy armor soldiers wearing three-layer iron armor, including Pizao and cotton armor, the power of firearms is much smaller.
It was precisely because of this that Yue Le and his subordinates dared to move forward like this.
With the iron armor on his body and the guards on the side, where can there be any surprises?
But the unexpected happened!
The accident came suddenly, and it was difficult for the guards around Yue Le to react! I didn't see that there were firecrackers aiming at this side in the front, or igniting guns, the Qing archers on both wings were still suppressing, and the Ming army's fire-deermen were still mainly attacking the Qing long-range troops...... Even if the two sides fight in a melee, the suppression of the Ming army's large array by bows and arrows is still not to be underestimated.
At this time, everyone watched as a small blood flower bloomed on Yue Le's chest.
The young Zhenguo Gong looked at his chest with unbelievable eyes, a double layer of iron armor and a layer of cotton armor, whether it was a slash to protect against cold weapons, a bow and arrow, or a fire sharp, this armor had a good effect.
The armor on Yue Le's body is not only three-layered, but also specially made by craftsmen under the king of Raoyu County, and the materials and workmanship are not comparable to ordinary soldiers and generals.
He rushed so fast, he had already expected that even if he reached the best killing distance of fifty paces, the Ming army's firearms would not be so threatening to him personally.
At least, it is simply impossible to completely penetrate his iron armor!
Unexpectedly, this sudden shot completely penetrated his iron armor protection, and then penetrated through his chest, at this time, he could only feel an unbelievable suspicion, and there was a great pain in front of him.
The pain was so painful that he had trouble breathing and couldn't even speak. There was an unprecedented feeling of weakness in the whole body, and suddenly attacked, the son of Abatai, the king of Raoyu County, Yue Le, the prince of Zhenguo, the future Prince of Daqing'an, and the commander of the confrontation with Wu Sangui's main force in Jingzhou, died on the battlefield!
