No one expected such an effect, not even the horsetail soldiers who fired the guns. Three thousand cavalry, divided into five and each with six hundred horsemen, the queue was stretched out four or five hundred meters, but they rushed all the way to the side of the Mawei Army's array, but they were all put down by the continuous rows of guns. In fact, this is also to blame Hachita for being too light on the enemy, the Mawei soldiers in the front are no longer on the road, but all of them are lined up in the rice field, and Hachita knows that they are not good at rushing into the rice field, so he led the army straight to the Mawei Army on the rear road, which has been rushing forward but just achieved the soldiers in the front formation.

Especially when the cavalry was deep, the directions on both sides were all revealed in front of the horsetail army, and the soldiers held their guns to shoot at the cavalry on higher ground, shooting left and right, and the cavalry of Hachita suddenly fell one by one like dumplings. The Mawei Army shot at the same time on both sides, and there was no need to worry about the bullets hitting their own brothers on the opposite side, because the terrain in this rice field is low, and the road should be forty or fifty centimeters higher than the rice field, plus the cavalry is riding on horses, and the Mawei soldiers have to shoot slightly from the back, even if they don't hit the Qing cavalry, the bullets are also shot into the sky, as for whether the bullets will hit after they fall, then do you have to worry? At that time, the bullet had no great kinetic energy, and it was not painful to hit the soldiers' hats.

This scene was like acting, Hachita rushed quickly with the cavalry, and the cavalry in front kept falling, and due to the long queue, the cavalry behind was still quickly catching up. Many horses fell to the ground with the cavalry above. It was planted in the rice fields on the left and right sides. In the densest places, corpses are layered on top of each other. Even if the cavalry of the Qing army with white flags are wearing white armor with red edges, if you don't look carefully at this moment, you can't tell where the war horse is and where the cavalry is.

Speaking of which, it was a matter of five or six minutes, and until the gunfire stopped, the soldiers of the Mawei Army fired an average of about twenty-five shots each, and the three thousand men fired seventy-five thousand bullets, and it was not surprising that they were all wiped out at such a close distance on the dense three thousand cavalry and war horses. When the Qing army rushed to the internal road, it took an average of 20 shots to kill a person at a distance of only a few tens of meters. This hit rate is really not worth boasting about. You must know that these soldiers have to receive rifle shooting training every day in the barracks, and in addition to the ten rounds of live ammunition shooting training every day, each of them also has to carry a ten-pound gun for aiming exercise. The effect of more than half a year has reached the current record, which is good.

However, the Mawei army is not without losses, the cavalry of the Qing army has already rushed inside, and the distance from the Mawei army is only a few tens of meters, and their bows and arrows are also quite fierce. Although the cavalry of the Qing army kept falling in the continuous sound of gunfire, and the war horses were also frightened in different ways, their arrows fell like flying locusts. Inevitably, there were casualties among the Mawei soldiers. This is not the time to test the bravery of individuals, and all the arrows are densely packed like rain. Landing in the array of the horsetail army, it immediately shot at the chest, shoulders and heads of the warriors. Once shot in the chest and head, the discipline that survives is almost nil.

This battle came and ended quickly, the Qing army all fell, the smoke of gunpowder dissipated on the battlefield, and the Mawei army also killed 200 people on the side of the horsetail army. However, exchanging 200 people for 3,000 cavalry of the Qing army, one to fifteen, this ratio is extremely rare in history.

"Go up and check it, and make up for all the dead guys!" Zhang Wenliang was quite satisfied with this result, and immediately ordered.

The order was conveyed, and the battalions acted urgently, leaving some people responsible for taking care of and assisting the medical soldiers in transferring and treating the wounded, while the others lined up again, and they didn't care about the rice that had been trampled on the ground, and walked around the many corpses of the Qing army and began to clean up.

The Mawei army has reacted and acted quickly, while the Qing army is still in a sluggish state, it is inevitable that the two armies will be killed and injured in battle, let alone two or three thousand, even if it is tens of thousands, Raita will not frown when he is damned, but the death of the three thousand warriors just now is too aggrieved, and most of them have been wiped out without even touching a cold hair of the other party, and no one can accept this result.

"Knock Knock"

"Knock Knock"

"Knock Knock"

Accompanied by the earth-shattering drums and the power of great victory, the thousands of horsetail soldiers who had once again lined up shouted trumpets and continued to slowly press forward with neat steps.

"General, are we attacking or defending?" On the side of the Qing army, they also reacted when they heard the neat trumpet of the Mawei Army, but the one just now made the morale of nearly 10,000 soldiers on the Qing army's side drop greatly, damn, the army on the other side is too evil, it is 3,000 cavalry, if the position is reversed, let the 3,000 cavalry attack their military formation, even if it is affected by the terrain here, it is impossible to wipe out all the 3,000 cavalry. The best outcome is to force the cavalry to retreat voluntarily, and it is very difficult to win.

But today's Mawei Army has broken their cognition, it turns out that the foot soldiers can be so powerful, and they can also clean up the cavalry like chopping melons and vegetables. In fact, their ideas are also a bit exaggerated, even in the early twentieth century, World War I and World War II, cavalry and rifle-armed infantry fighting on the plains, it will not be as easy as today, today's victory is mainly to take advantage of the geographical advantage, if it is not for the fact that this Jiangnan is indeed not suitable for a large number of cavalry activities to fight, the dense paddy fields limit the mobility of the cavalry, and the Mawei army wants to win without the assistance of artillery, then at least a thousand losses must be paid.

"Pass my order, all parts are scattered, the Chinese army is facing east, the front army is facing north, the rear army is detouring to the south and copying the Mawei army to the east, just now that stupid guy from Hachita took the initiative to form a dense formation and was shot as a target by the opposite side, we can't make this mistake again." Raita pointed to the various subordinates that had been put in order.

His orders were conveyed and immediately executed to the best. Because the generals below also have the same idea as her. After the shock. They all feel that the intelligence is indeed a loss in this place, and this book takes the initiative to make up for the most densely populated places, but this loss still makes all the Qing troops feel heartache. At this moment, Raita ordered to disperse and surround him, and pounce on it with absolute strength to destroy the enemy force in front of him. In this way, although the horsetail firearms are sharp, they cannot form a continuous dense network of firepower. In this way, they can quickly rush in and intertwine with the Ponytails.

At this time, Laita gathered a total of nearly 12,000 soldiers and horses, and although the total number of Mawei troops was also 8,000, the troops behind were still a little far away, and there were only 4,000 people in front of here, with a ratio of three to one, Laita was confident that they could still win!

"Kill"

"Kill"

"Kill"

The earth-shattering shouts of killing also sounded from the side of the Qing army, first shouted by the generals of various departments, as if to boost morale, and the 12,000 Qing soldiers also roared loudly. This is to cheer himself up, and the scene just now really frightened a lot of Qing soldiers. However, this time, more than 10,000 troops were densely dispersed to form a large encirclement of about 500 meters, and they were rapidly approaching the Mawei Army, and the morale of the whole Qing army really came back a lot, at least at this time, there were indeed few people in the Qing army who continued to be afraid. In the eyes of the Qing army, if their more than 10,000 people can't even pack up three or four thousand enemy troops, then they don't have to continue to serve as soldiers to eat food, and go home to farm

The rear of the Qing army, the part at the end of the crane of the marching army was also in big trouble at the moment, as soon as they left the city, they had just walked less than a kilometer, and Zeng Yangxing followed with the leading men. In addition to the two battalions of Yuanjue Temple, the four battalions left behind in the base camp, and the military horses led by Zhang Wenliang, the remaining 10,000 people are all under his command. Because Zeng Yangxing didn't need to rush to the front to ambush in advance, he only needed to lead his troops to follow behind and chase after him, so his 10,000 or so people were leisurely, and they didn't start to go out until this time.

The Qing army was marching towards the front, and suddenly saw a large number of soldiers and horses in the rear of the side and was about to chase and kill them, and the number of people was definitely more than 10,000 at a cursory glance. The general of the Qing army in charge of pressing the formation was Tula's deputy general Harhaqi, who received the information from the rear army and hurriedly mobilized troops and horses to turn around to resist the surprise attack of the Mawei army, but in a hurry, how could he concentrate the long marching army? Even Tula at the front and Laita in the center took nearly a quarter of an hour to put the team together.

"Taking advantage of the fact that the Qing army was not assembled, the soldiers quickly attacked!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Rush! Rush! Rush! ”

Under the order of Shangguan, the officers and men of the Mawei Army were divided into several teams and approached the queue of the Qing army at a very fast speed, and the rear troops of the Qing army were completely chaotic at this moment, not to mention what formation they wanted to form to resist, even if they were to stay, it was an extravagant hope. At the rear, the Qing army of 500 people, including his leader, spread their feet and fled for their lives to the north. Because the north side is where their army is located, they feel more secure only when they are facing that side. This was completely the knee-jerk reaction of the Qing soldiers, not the leader of the leader.

As soon as the rear army ran, they followed with the Qing army in their north, like a snowball, and with just a cup of tea, the thousands of people in the rear army were all in chaos. The Mawei Army did not stop at all, and they also chased forward in great strides. Whether it is a sprint or a long-distance run, the soldiers of the Mawei Army dare to call it second, and there is really no army in this world that dares to call it the first, and uninterrupted cross-country training is not given in vain. The distance between the two armies was constantly narrowing, and the fleeing Qing army would turn their heads from time to time to see where the Mawei army had chased and how far away they were. But it didn't matter when I turned around, but I found that the distance between them was shortened. And so. The potential for life is enormous. The Qing soldiers once again fled, and fled forward with great luck.

Several generals of the rear army also realized that it was not a way to escape like this, but at this time, they just wanted the soldiers to stop and rectify the resistance, and it was impossible, so they didn't care, so they had to keep this idea in their hearts, and quickly rode away with a whip. As everyone knows, it is precisely like this, this action of their rear army just disturbed the team that Harhaqi was gathering,

"Bastard. Stop! Harhazy shouted angrily at the sight, but his shouts were completely ineffective, and the many deserters joined in the fleeing process, all of whom scrambled to escape from the horsetails. However, in front of them were two soldiers who had already formed a phalanx, and in this case, the deserters did not dare to directly attack their own army formation, but bypassed the phalanx and continued to flee from both sides. With these two troops and horses fending off the Mawei army, they could run farther and more smoothly.

It's not that they don't want to stop and resist, but the Qing soldiers lost the courage to resist when they saw that the number of Mawei troops behind them exceeded 10,000. There are more than 10,000 people, and you can't see the edge at a glance. Only the head of the black pressed man was seen, and the figures that could be seen in front of him were all holding the terrifying horsetail rifle in their hands. They are a group of rear troops. But it was one of the troops who withdrew with Tula on the battlefield yesterday, and when they saw the horsetail army armed with rifles, they lost the courage to resist even more, and fled forward desperately.

"Pass my order, the left mark will give me the immediate dispersal of the soldiers to continue to escape, and anyone who escapes will be killed on the spot! The left and right phalanxes, the archers are ready, shoot me the foot, stop the fleeing soldiers! "Harhaqi is also ruthless, and he can be ruthless to his subordinates. As soon as he gave the order, the more than 100 cavalry around him immediately dispersed into ten squads, quickly rushed to the front of the deserters, and wantonly chopped the fleeing soldiers with sabers, while shouting that everyone should not run again, otherwise they would be killed.

The same was true of the two armies of more than 2,000 men and horses in the formation, and after receiving the order, the two phalanxes each divided two hundred archers to shoot arrows at the fleeing soldiers passing by on both sides. At the same time, at the time of archery, the Qing generals in the phalanx ordered the phalanx soldiers to shout in unison: "Kill those who escape!" ”

"Runaway, kill!"

"Runaway, kill!"

"Runaway, kill!"

"Whoosh ......"

"Whoosh ......"

"Whoosh ......"

The first few sentences were not shouted in an orderly manner, but after a few shouts, the tone became the same, and the chorus of thousands of people shouted in unison, plus hundreds of arrows were fired at the fleeing soldiers, causing hundreds of dead and wounded, and this scene also frightened the fleeing soldiers, so they stopped. The Qing soldiers in the two phalanxes were Han troops, and they were not willing to shoot arrows at their brothers, but they had no choice but to run away, and it was wrong to escape, who let them escape. And these more than 100 cavalry are different, they are born in the white flag, authentic Manchuria on the Three Banners, riding horses and wielding sabers, in such a short period of effort, they slashed and killed more than 300 fleeing soldiers. In their opinion, maybe these Han people are all their minions, and they have no feelings at all.

Under the suppression of the cavalry on the left and the Qing army of the two phalanxes, the more than 1,000 soldiers who fled also stopped, and then began to form a combat phalanx. But at this time, the soldiers can't find the generals and can't find the soldiers, and how difficult it is to want the river to array, the left cavalry shouted and shouted, but it made the Qing troops who stopped not know what to do.

However, there was no need to wait for them to form a phalanx, and the soldiers of the 10th Battalion of the 7th Division of the Mawei Army's vanguard had already approached within 200 meters of the Qing army. But at this distance, although the rifles of the Mawei Army can also be lethal, but the power is not great, and there is not much accuracy, so the officers and men of the Mawei Army of the 10th Battalion continued to advance fifty meters, and when the distance to the Qing army was less than one hundred and fifty meters, the soldiers of the Mawei Army officially began to shoot!

"Bang Bang Bang"

"Bang Bang Bang"

"Bang Bang Bang"

The dense gunfire rang out like bursting beans, and the footsteps of the 10th Battalion in the queue were also lowered, and instead they opened up to form a hundred-meter-long crescent formation, and while firing guns, they steadily advanced forward. After each soldier finished firing his gun, he immediately took a step to the left and stopped, then loaded his ammunition as fast as he could, and then continued to shoot, and then continued to reload and shoot again, and in this short period of time, it has become the instinct of the soldiers to keep loading and shooting.

For example, in the 19th century, the musket fires in the great wars in Europe were all standing still, including the trouble of loading muskets, and the fact that soldiers were easily disturbed when they were advancing with their guns. But these problems are not unsolvable, the horsetail rifle loading is relatively simple, the fixed ammunition does not need the soldiers to measure it themselves, directly bite open the paper shell and pour the gunpowder into it immediately, and the last step is no longer to put in a lot of lead, but just a mini bullet, gently push to the end, the operation is much simpler and more convenient than the original shotgun.

As for the queue change, it is even less of a thing, it mainly depends on the training intensity of an army, as long as the soldiers can arrange the training attentively, over time, they will naturally be familiar with the battle array change, and they will be able to exert their due power on the real battlefield!

"Quick, quick, reload!"

"Fire!"

"Reload!"

"Fire!"

The first soldiers of the 10th Battalion in this way methodically fired, reloaded, and reloaded again (to be continued......
