Chapter 466 - Lookout
In the rocket flying, the Qing cavalry was still surging and galloping, and they were separated, several groups in groups, hundreds of people in waves, surging along the slopes and hills, like a tide. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Because they were scattered, the rocket cars were not enough to stop their progress, and the closer they got to kill, the dazzling weapons of the armor and light weapons, and the commotion of the Shenji Battalion, the joy of the previous was lost, and fear surged into everyone's hearts.
The soldiers of the Shenji Battalion are all well-known young master soldiers, and they can't talk about training in normal times, so in the past, they fired their artillery early. The reason why he has endured until now is that Lin Jinsi sent his own soldiers to suppress it strongly, and most importantly, there are two general Jingbian troops in the formation, which makes everyone feel faintly relieved and dependent.
Not to mention them, in fact, many Ming border troops are not like this? Although the Ming army's vehicle battalions were equipped with firearms to a high degree, many officers and soldiers also relied too heavily on firearms, resulting in the loss of courage in hand-to-hand combat. Coupled with the lack of training, many firearms have a low pass rate, and when they are facing the enemy, they fight indiscriminately, and as soon as the Qing troops approach, they will be defeated on the whole line with a slight impact, and Bai Guangen's several car battalions are a lesson from the past.
They have been able to hold on until now, and they have already exceeded the quota.
Lin Jinsi also felt that his mouth was dry and bitter, only Lei Xianbin beside him still looked calm, this kind of scene was just a small meaning to him, from the army to the present, I don't know how much he has experienced.
Seeing that the ride was getting closer and closer, finally, Lei Xianbin said in a deep voice: "Franc machine! ā
Lin Jinsi hurriedly shouted: "The Franc machine fires!" ā
The sound of swans was urgent, the sound of artillery was loud, and the car formation of the Shenji Battalion burst out with thick smoke.
There are 100 artillery trucks on the front of the Shenji battalion military formation, and there are 40 artillery trucks on the left side, at this time the cannon is a 100 artillery carriages on the front, these artillery, although it is the style of the Franc machine, in fact, they are all exterminating guns, each car carries about three, the net iron is made, the pipe is two feet long and weighs about 100 catties, and it can hit a catty of lead bullets and about 100 lead stone shotguns.
Each car of gunners was divided into three squads, and in the sound of swans, I saw them fighting in shifts one by one, the cannons roared, and the cannons shot out like hailstones, and from time to time there were Qing soldiers and horses piercing, and blood mist rose.
However, these cannons seem to be powerful, but in fact, the damage caused by them is small, and they are still surging over, and the car formation of the Shenji Battalion is even more panicked. These gunners, if they hide behind the city wall or position, calmly open fire, fortunately, the battle in front of the battle is too much pressure on them.
Moreover, although the Franc machine has the advantage of fast loading, it is also very demanding when filling the sub-gun, and the sub-gun and the mother gun need to be tightly aligned, otherwise the cannon is weak and the fire is still a trivial matter, and the fire released may burn one's own people.
As the Qing cavalry approached, they became more and more accidental, and they were in a hurry. The weather was already hot, and at this time, these gunners were even more sweaty drops, and the smoke of gunpowder also made them cough.
All kinds of circumstances made the artillery trucks of these Shenji battalions, except for the three squads that were initially loaded with ammunition, and the subsequent artillery firing became scattered and powerless.
The smoke and dust were billowing out, and a large number of Qing soldiers were quickly approaching a hundred steps in front of the car formation, and many people were about to rush up the hills.
"Scatter shots!"
Some officers shouted anxiously.
Boom, boom, some of the gun's guncart shots were fired, spewing out large balls of fire, and in the midst of the shouting of men and horses, some of the Qing cavalry who rushed to the front were hit by the flying lead, and a large stream of blood mist was stirred up, and they rolled to the ground with a howl.
"Shoot!"
The swans of the Chinese army roared loudly, and in the roar of the officers, the sound of bursting beans sounded, and the guns of the Shenji Battalion, who had long been unbearable, immediately screamed and fired on the baffle of the gun carriage like a honeycomb.
"Bang bang bang!"
A large stream of white smoke rose up, the rich smell of gunpowder and sulfur permeated, and some Qing riders fell down, fell to the ground in pain, rolling back and forth and screaming, but the follow-up large group of Qing riders had already rushed dozens of steps in front of the car formation. ā¦,
The bowstrings sounded, waves of arrows shot from their riding bows, and some people used their horsepower to throw javelins, throwing axes, spinning knives, broadswords, and other weapons.
"Ah......h
Some of the gunners of the Divine Machine Battalion were shot with arrows, or were shot by javelins, etc.
Although the cavalry bows of those Qing soldiers were not as powerful as the foot bows, the speed of the arrows was not fast, and the shooting was not far, but they were all very accurate, and they did not seem to be affected by the bumps on horseback. In particular, their arrows are large and heavy, with blood grooves, like three edges, and their armor-piercing and bloodletting abilities are extremely strong, and if they are hit, they will soon bleed too much and die.
For the bows and arrows of the Shangqing army, if they have excellent armor, it is fine, if they have no armor, or the armor is not good......
This is also the reason why the Jingbian army is sharp guns and armor, even if the whole army uses flintlock pistols and bayonets in the future, if the Dongyu does not have pure firearms, Wang Dou will not give up the armor.
It's a pity that the armor of the Shenji Battalion in front of me looks bright, but most of them are just appearances.
When the Qing army fired arrows, the gunners and gunners in the front were in a dense formation and dodged in a panic, but there were still some people who were hit by the arrows. Especially those gunners, each artillery cart is hollow, although there are baffles on both sides, but if you want to fire the cannon, you have to be under the threat of clear cavalry bows and arrows.
These people who were hit by the arrow, after snorting, soon felt weak and collapsed to the ground limply. Blood continued to flow from their arrows, and their armor was pierced by a single shot from the Tartars' cavalry bow, and many of them were bright on the outside but filthy on the inside.
This kind of armor is extremely hateful, and Qi Jiguang said angrily back then: "...... Now my armor is new on the outside, and iron leaves on the inside, with several eyes. The rust is rotten only in the shape of iron, it is still good, its emptiness is like a sieve, the enemy can penetrate it, and the knife can break it......"
The armor of many soldiers of the Shenji Battalion is that the enemy can see through it, and it is not visible in ordinary times, and it is extremely gorgeous, and as soon as the battle is fought, it will show its original form. You can't even resist riding a bow, let alone a javelin throwing axe, and this result is to bear it with your life.
Rolling and clearing, braving the rain of bullets and artillery, the tide came in waves, they skillfully steered on their horses, came and went, went and came, and seemed to go on and on. They galloped in groups, and every time the bowstring sounded, arrows like locusts were fired, and javelins rained down.
The gunners of the Shenji Battalion in front of the car formation were already in a panic, and people were constantly hit by arrows, or were shot through javelins, etc., and the screams continued, and the firing of their artillery and guns became scattered, and when they fired at the Qing cavalry, they actually fell behind.
Although the Qing cavalry outside had not yet rushed into battle, and the nearest Tartar soldiers had only rushed to the front of the chariot for more than ten steps to release arrows, their savage and cruel aura could still be deeply felt.
When their eyes touched, their vicious eyes seemed to have no humanity, like humanoid beasts with teeth and claws. As soon as they made eye contact, those Shenji Battalion soldiers were three points frightened in their hearts, and the bloody tension of the battle also made everyone very capable.
"Charge, load, fast fire!"
In the officer's order, the soldiers were busy loading ammunition, although they used Lumi guns and firearms, but the ammunition was not fixed, and there were many steps to load the cartridge ammunition, and when they were in battle, death and life were only in front of them, and their faces were yellow and their mouths were dry, and their hearts were flustered.
Either the primer and propellant were mistaken, or they forgot to put the lead, or the lead was too much or the gunpowder was too small, and all kinds of problems arose. In particular, the Tartar arrows kept shooting, and the people around them screamed and fell, which made them even more upset.
They used a three-tiered attack tactic of advancing and retreating, and the firearm passing tactic, which required close cooperation between the front and rear columns, and reached its peak during the reign of Yingzong. However, the Shenji Battalion has been abandoned for so long, using the front and rear column transfer tactics, but now everyone is more than willing and not enough, Lin Jinsi also understands this, and only lets the soldiers advance and retreat in three layers to shoot. ā¦,
However, not long after the Qing soldiers rode and shot, under the threat of arrow rain, everyone panicked, and many people went their own way, and there was no distinction between the front and rear layers, and there was chaos.
Many officers even shouted hoarse, but to no avail.
"Ahh
Tian Dayang was also extremely flustered, seeing that the Jingbian Army was fighting easily, and when it was his turn, he realized how difficult it was to make military merits.
His position was on the front flank of the formation, and from a distance, the mountains were full of roaring Tartar soldiers, their black helmets and red tassels, the tips of the helmets were erected high, and they wore placket armor, which was covered with bubble studs, only the color of the armor was different, or blue, or yellow, or blue with red trim.
There were also some Tartars with lighter armor, which seemed to have only bubble nails and no iron blades inlaid inside, and most of them had short, soft riding bows and no huge foot bows.
Some of them still had Sulu ingots in their hands with wolf skins hanging from them, which were weapons similar to boring palladium.
These people wore yellow armor, red armor, or only leather robes and fox hats, and were supposed to be Mongol Tatar soldiers.
Like the Manchurian soldiers, they were just as rude and savage, their eyes were full of violence and ferocity, and when they roared forward, Tian Dayang did not dare to look them in the eye.
They were more skilled in riding, and could make all sorts of unbelievable movements on their horses, and they galloped one by one, clinging to the guns in front of the chariots, and the dense arrows rained down on the artillery carts, and the gunners behind the chariots, and from time to time someone fell down with a muffled grunt.
Right in front of him, Zhao Jiafu, the chubby man not far from Tian Dayang, was hit by an arrow in his throat, blood burst out, and he fell to the ground weakly. Before the war, he also made fun of Tian Dayang, and he didn't expect that his soul would return to heaven so soon.
There is also a hand, whose throat was brought out by a spinner knife with a blood mist, fell to the ground and struggled desperately with his throat clutched, presumably unable to survive.
There was another gunner, whose chest was cut through by an axe, and his armor could not protect him, and the wound was cut very deep, either dead or seriously wounded.
Tian Dayang's scalp was numb, and he was more and more busy loading ammunition, he had already fired a few shots, and he didn't know if he had killed a Tartar, and in a panic, he suddenly heard Chen Sheng's voice ringing in his ears: "Don't panic, you listen carefully to my command." ā
"Open the fire door!"
Tian Dayang hurriedly opened the fire door of Lu Mi Gong as he said.
"Pour out the gunpowder!"
Tian Dayang hurriedly took out a bamboo tube from the primer jar and poured it on.
"Close the fire door and take the propellant."
"Pour the lead and take the rod!"
"Calm your mind and aim for the Tartar!"
Chen Sheng said as he said that his own Lu Mi Gong aimed at a guy with a Sulu ingot, a wolf skin, and red armor a hundred steps away, and he was riding a horse and roaring, commanding his subordinates to ride and shoot at the formation.
Like him, his friend Ju Yiwu also set his sights on a Tartar officer.
"Go to hell!"
Chen Sheng decisively pulled the plate machine, the bang sounded, the person fell, and the guy shot a bloody arrow from his chest and fell under the horse. Chen Sheng felt a faint relief in his heart, with a sharp weapon in his hand, taking the life of the enemy was like probing for something.
Ju Yiwu had a smile on his face, and he gave the target a headshot.
Tian Dayang pulled the board machine and let out a cheerful shout: "It's hit!" ā
Chen Sheng said: "Yes, that's it, it's very simple, isn't it?" Brother Tian, we'll see you again. ā
Saying that, he and Ju Yiwu left, and both of them had at least five or six arrows on their bodies, but they didn't care, the fine armor of the Jingbian Army effectively protected their safety.
Tian Dayang looked at Chen Sheng's back: "Brother Chen, we will meet again in Beijing!" ā
He took a deep breath: "Open the fire door!" ā
ā¦ā¦
Attacking the thousands of Qing cavalry on the left flank, they took the team as a unit, like a tide of waves to the front of the Shenji battalion to attack, they continued to throw, close shot, arrows rained down. The car battalion of the formation, the defensive line seemed to be crumbling under the onslaught of the cavalry. ā¦,
A large force of cavalry also rushed to the second car formation of the Shenji Battalion, and they were flanked by the left flank of the first vehicle formation of the Shenji Battalion and the front of the second car formation.
Subsequently, these cavalry attacked the left flank of the second chariot formation, and there were also groups of cavalry, bypassing the hills on the left, intending to force the rear flank of the second formation and threaten the large Chinese army on the right.
Guo Yingxian led Wang Zheng and Li Yunshu to attack and drive away: "Haha, it's finally Lao Tzu's turn!" ā
The arrows flew one after another, and it seemed that they could see the shaking of the Shenji battalion array, their guns and cannons were completely suppressed by their own arrows, and the light cavalry of the Qing army rushed to the front in waves to shoot at the front, and their heavy cavalry was ready to move in the rear.
The tense sound continued, the screams were continuous, and the gunners and gunners of the Shenji Battalion behind the artillery carriage were hit by arrows one after another.
The bows of those Qing soldiers were large and heavy, and the arrows they shot were powerful and heavy, and the accurate heads were more sufficient.
The armor of the Shenji Battalion can't even resist the riding bow, how can it stop the fierce and fierce Qing army's infantry bow?
Not only were the baffles of the gun carriages full of arrows like hedgehogs, but many of the non-commissioned officers who could not react were hit by arrows, and many of them were hit by several arrows.
Like the riding bow, the Qing army's infantry bow arrows are as large and heavy, with blood grooves, three-edged styles, and the arrow body is longer and the arrow is larger. If you are hit by an arrow, you will quickly bleed to death, or lose your combat effectiveness.
In the muffled snort, many soldiers of the Shenji Battalion were shot by arrows one after another, and were shot into many vital parts such as eyes, throats, and faces, that is, they were shot in the arms or thighs.
Moreover, the wounds of these people are difficult to sew, and if they are not rescued in time, they will lose their lives.
The Qing army's arrow rain fell like locusts, round after round, fast and ruthless, the people who were hit by the arrows kept screaming, blood flowed all over the ground, and everyone around them turned pale.
Many people see that the situation is not good, and they are ready to retreat, but within this car array, where to retreat? If you don't stick to the chariot, it will be another Bai Guangen's fate.
"Don't retreat, violators will be killed!"
Lin Jinsi's personal guard, desperately wielding his blade, roared to stop the sergeants from retreating.
It's just that in the face of the fierce and vicious Tartar soldiers in front, the arrows that came like rain to kill them, those retreating Shenji Battalion gunners, where to care?
And after everyone is noble, you are a fox and a fake tiger, who is afraid of whom?
For a while, the two sides scuffled and crowded together, and there was chaos. (To be continued.) This article is provided by Xiao Ai 332335 If you like this work, you are welcome to ā£ā„ to vote for recommendations, monthly passes, your support is my biggest motivation. )
