Chapter 64: The Impact of the Mini Gun

Soon, the Qing army's infantry and cavalry had been assembled, and the line was a mixed formation of musketeers and cavalry, that is, the musketeers lined up in three horizontal rows, the cavalry followed closely, and the musketeers left a gap between every five for the cavalry to charge.

Wu Jianzhang nodded confidently, and waved his hand violently: "Go!" ”

The musketeers trotted with their guns, the cavalry slowly rode their horses, and Hong Xuanjiao, who was lying behind a piece of bricks, frowned slightly: "Although this Wu Jianzhang has a despicable character, he is also a talent, Wang Feng, you see, the Qing army is forced by musketeers, forcing our musketeers to line up with them to shoot, and then taking advantage of the time difference in loading bullets, the cavalry will launch a charge, which is much more clever than Fuxing." ”

Wang Feng looked at it for a moment before he said: "He has a good plan, we have a wall ladder, come, let's also show our manpower!" ”

The soldiers stood up with flintlock pistols in their hands and put on a posture of lining up to be shot.

The distance between the two sides became closer and closer, when there were still 60 meters left, the Qing army stopped, and suddenly the gunfire was loud, the two sides fired almost at the same time, and the whole battlefield was full of green smoke.

"Idiot!" Wu Jianzhang, who was at the end of the team, smiled coldly, pulled out his saber and pointed forward: "Charge!" ”

The earth-shattering sound of horses' hooves rang out, and the cavalry swarmed out of the reserved gap, everyone looked like they were scrambling, according to normal terms, even the most skilled gunner would take thirty seconds to load the flintlock pistol, and thirty seconds was enough for the cavalry to roll over, not to mention two thousand elite horsemen, just this wave of impact, it was enough to defeat the bandits!

The musketeers also hurry up with their bayonets, and together with the spearmen who have caught up, they will follow the cavalry behind them for a second round of fighting!

The Qing army's tactics of cooperating with cavalry and musketeers were indeed very thoughtful and operational, and just when the sneer on the corner of Wu Jianzhang's mouth became more and more prevalent, a shout suddenly came from the opposite side: "Throw!" ”

Dense black dots were thrown from the rear of the position, "Boom! Bang! "The explosions bloomed everywhere, and in some dense places, the fires were almost connected!

You know, this is a throw-out of more than 100 grenades at one time, covering almost the entire battlefield!

"Good!" Hong Xuanjiao shouted loudly, within a distance of thirty or forty meters ahead, no one and not a single horse could stand, the ground was full of stumps and broken arms, mixed with many rolling and wailing Qing troops, and the cavalry behind them out of instinct, they all grabbed the reins of the horses, as if they were greatly frightened, with a sluggish expression.

"How is that possible? How can it be? Wu Jianzhang muttered in disbelief, and even for a moment, he wondered if a foreigner had accidentally injured himself by firing from behind!

"Wang Feng, over there! He's Wu Jianzhang, can you hit him? Wu Jianzhang was still in a daze, Hong Xuanjiao had discovered him, and hurriedly pulled Wang Feng.

"Okay, I'll try!" Wang Feng stuffed a Mini bullet into the muzzle of the gun and took aim with the gun flat.

Wu Jianzhang's distance was about 400 meters, and with the previous shot as a reference, Wang Feng was so big that he groped out a little way, although the crosshair was aimed at Wu Jian's head, but he moved the muzzle of the gun down slightly, aimed at the abdomen and waist, and pulled the trigger violently!

"Bang!" A flash of fire flashed from the muzzle, "Ouch! With a faint strange scream, Wu Jianzhang just covered his right eye, and then fell down, Wang Feng saw clearly, Wu Jianzhang's right eye socket was stained red with blood!

"Good fight!" Hong Xuanjiao clenched his fists fiercely: "Daotai is an official of the fourth grade, and it is not bad to kill a Daotai in this battle!" ”

Wang Feng shook his head: "Sister Xuanjiao, your thinking is not right, if you don't completely destroy the bureaucratic system of the Qing court, kill Wu Jianzhang today, someone will replace you tomorrow, and even if we hit Beijing and behead Xianfeng by luck, the Qing court will also elect another emperor, so the purpose of our uprising is to destroy the Qing court from the system and foundation, not to be complacent about killing a few big people, not to mention whether Wu Jianzhang was killed is still difficult to say, Mini bullets have limited power and may not be able to penetrate the head!"

"Humph!" Hong Xuanjiao was dissatisfied: "You always have a set of big truths, disappointing!" As he spoke, he looked forward and said, "Let me ask you, the Qing army is beginning to retreat, should we take advantage of the victory to pursue?" ”

Wang Feng said without thinking: "Don't chase, there is a dock behind, there are foreigners in the formation, chasing over is looking for death, if you want to completely annihilate Xu Naizhao's department, the prerequisite is that the foreigners dare not interfere, and the best way to shock the foreigners is to overturn the Hermes, and then resist his crazy revenge, you can rescue the knife club." ”

"Oh?" Hong Jiaoxuan hurriedly asked, "Do you have a way?" ”

"Let me think!" Wang Feng frowned and fell into deep thought

At the beginning, Wen Xian and the others nodded again and again at the cautious and orderly nature of the Qing army, because Xu Naizhao hired a French military adviser, although the French navy is not the opponent of the British army, but it has a complete set of mature military combat systems in the army, but not long after, the violent explosion behind the brick and stone pile made them all a Geden in their hearts, their faces were a little unnatural, and all kinds of speculations were born, and then later, they saw an unimaginable scene, the Qing army retreated, especially Wu Jianzhang's face was covered with blood and was carried back!

"What's going on?" Xu Naizhao immediately asked!

"My lord, the bandits don't know what to throw, and when they explode, hundreds of brothers have no bones! Even Lord Wu was shot coldly, and his life and death are unknown! One of the generals shouted with a sad face.

The translator relayed the past, and Wen Xian hurriedly asked the military doctor to rescue Wu Jianzhang, and asked the translator for detailed details.

After a moment, Ali Guo whispered, "Grenade! The Taiping army must have grenades, which are rarely used in our European countries, and I can't imagine that the Taiping army actually has them, and it is indeed better to use grenades to block cavalry charges than firearms. ”

"Where did the Taiping Army get the grenades? Who sold it? Or did he make it himself? Jin Nengheng asked subconsciously.

This is a question that no one can answer.

"Look, gentlemen!" At this moment, the team doctor hurried over with a tray containing a bloody bullet!

"Mini Bullet?" Sharp Earl's complexion changed drastically in an instant, this oval-shaped bullet, the warhead has been strictly deformed, but the three hoop marks on the body of the bullet and the empty bottom of the bullet all indicate that this is a Mini bullet!

Wen Xian, Jin Nengheng and Ali Guo also looked extremely ugly for a moment, if the Taiping army has grenades, they can still accept, after all, the technical principle of grenades is simple, the Chinese blind cats catch dead rats to get out, can only say that they took shit luck, and the throwing distance is limited, for the armed forces of the great powers equipped with Mini guns pose no threat.

The Mini gun has a long range and is the most advanced firearms technology in Europe, and it has only been four years since its launch, how can an ignorant and uncivilized ethnic group like the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and even the whole of China master it? You must know that the armies of European countries have only begun to be equipped in the past two years, including the United Kingdom, many countries have not completed the redress, and even Russia does not even have a plan to redress!

In short, the Taiping Army has a Mini gun, which can threaten the armies of the great powers, and even have an impact on the policies of the great powers in China.
