"Xu Jin shoot, forward!"

With the order of the front-line commander issued, the drumming of the accompanying military band changed abruptly, and the well-trained soldiers of the Taiping Army Tianwang Guards were automatically divided into two rows of loose battle lines, the front row took 10 steps forward to stop aiming and shooting, and then loaded on the spot, and the rear row crossed the first row of ten steps and stopped aiming and shooting.

After the artillery of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula was slaughtered, the soldiers of the Taiping Heavenly King's Guards naturally aimed at the line infantry guarding behind the defensive line.

At this time, the commander of the allied forces of the Italian peninsula in the first line of defense had been completely blinded, and the artillery position seemed to have become a place of death, and the artillerymen who had rushed forward to replace them fell one after another in batches, until the Italian artillerymen refused to come forward and die!

When the Taiping Heavenly King's Guards were no longer aiming at the empty artillery positions, several squads of Italian artillerymen, under the forced orders of the officers, stepped forward again to try to pull these precious front-loading howitzers back.

However, in the Taiping Army's Heavenly Guards, there was naturally a firing team that had been staring at the artillery position, and when the Italian artillery dragged the howitzers in front of it, it crackled and shot at the Mini to kill these careful Italian artillerymen!

The Mini rifles equipped by the Taiping Army shined on the battlefield, beating the soldiers of the allied countries of the Italian Peninsula who did not have enough range to raise their heads, and their morale plummeted.

Whoever is beaten like this and can't do it, I'm afraid they will despair.

What's more, this is the first time that the Mini rifle has been used in a large-scale battle as a new weapon!

The allied forces of the Italian Peninsula were completely stunned at the first time......

The front-loading howitzers that the allied forces of the Italian peninsula regarded as the magic weapon for victory were reduced to a meaningless ornament under the volley of ultra-long-range Mini rifles, surrounded by the corpses of Italian artillerymen.

The soldiers of the Taiping Army's Heavenly King Guards, who had no scruples, approached the defensive positions of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula with swaggering Xu Jin-style shooting, and did not suffer any casualties in the whole process!

All the soldiers of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula who dared to show their heads were killed one by one, and in the end, all the officers and soldiers of the allied countries of the Italian Peninsula could only reluctantly hide behind the chest wall trench, hoping that the other side would counterattack after the distance was close.

After all, the Taiping army belonged to the attacking side, and it was going to occupy this position after all.

Under the continuous Mini bullets from the Minnie rifle, the scattered Allied soldiers of the Italian Peninsula could not stand the 'stimulation', ignored the orders of the officers, shouted frantically and threw away their weapons, broke and fled to the rear, and then were shot to death by the Taiping soldiers as a moving target without accident.

Approaching beyond the effective range of the bayonet flintlock pistol, the line of battle of the Taiping Heavenly King's Guards came to an abrupt halt, and did not rush directly as the officers and soldiers of the allied states of the Italian Peninsula hiding behind the braigraphic trench imagined.

I have to say that the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula countries stationed on the outskirts of Venice are worthy of being taken out by the countries of the Italian Peninsula!

They are the real elite of the Italian peninsulars, and they are no longer a mixture of militias and mercenaries who have been spilled with money.

After the last crushing defeat in Bavaria, the countries of the Italian peninsula also woke up to the fact that although the popularity of muskets allowed a militia to go to the battlefield with a gun to kill the enemy, the morale was still more reliable than that of a regular army of veterans who had been trained for a long time.

Therefore, this time it is a matter of victory or defeat in the entire encirclement and suppression campaign, and the countries of the Italian Peninsula have put all their elites on the front line, and the Papal States and even the apologetic army composed of precious fanatics have been sent out!

As for the militia, city guards, and second-rate mercenaries who are used to gather numbers, they are placed in the rear to assist in the defense, or follow the outflanking troops to carry out a wide range of maneuvers.

In a tough frontal battle, there are elites to carry it.

This idea of the commanders of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula is undoubtedly strategically correct, but this approach also has a certain risk, once the elite of the frontal tough resistance is annihilated, the backbone of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula will basically be knocked out, and at that time, I am afraid it will be difficult to draw out so many troops that can fight tough battles, and they will be passive in front of the Heavenly King's Guards attacking by the Taiping Army.

Of course, before this, the kings of the Italian Peninsula did not think that their elites would be wiped out in the defensive position, but they had all the front-loading howitzers attached here, and they also relied on the continuous transportation and supply of the Venice port, no matter how you look at it, they will not be annihilated in a short time by the Taiping army, which is far less than their own in number.

The Taiping Heavenly King Guards who stopped were divided into two simple rows, firing freely, and as time went by, a large number of the main forces of the Taiping Heavenly King Guards behind had all stepped to this position.

The entire battlefield cross-section flintlock pistols were filled with Mini rifles of the Taiping Army, outside the effective range.

Soon, the Taiping Army Heavenly King Guards completed the formation, and a tight double-row free fire horizontal formation was formed behind, in addition, several Taiping Heavenly King Guards battalion teams formed several offensive columns, and with the officer's order, the column soldiers launched a short and close-range sprint from several fulcrums to the front of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula countries under the cover of friendly fire!

"For the sake of the Heavenly King, charge!"

Under the leadership of the battalion commander wielding the command knife, the Taiping Heavenly King Guards of these columns rushed forward with a bayonet loaded Mini rifle and a large grenade in their hands.

The effective firing range of the flintlock pistol is only about 100 meters, and under the charge of the army, tens of seconds are enough to get close to the body.

After all, the army charge needs to maintain a formation, and it is impossible to go straight into it without obstacles like an individual sprint.

The officers of the allied forces of the Italian peninsula, who were lying behind the chest wall of the trench, saw the Taiping army leap over the stake in front of the position to resist the horses, and after rushing into the effective firing range, they raised their flintlock handcuffs and shouted: "The Han dogs have been killed, all of them are shot!! ”

"Kill the !! of the Dog"

The elite soldiers of the Italian Peninsula countries, whose faces were gray and black, holding flintlock pistols, shouted to give themselves courage, and at the same time stood up collectively in an uproar, aiming at the Taiping army that rushed straight up on the opposite side.

As soon as the soldiers of the allied forces of the Italian Peninsula came out, the Taiping Army Heavenly King Guards in the back row, who had already aimed at their positions, suddenly pulled the trigger, and fired accurate Minnie bullets from the left and right sides of the officers and soldiers of the allied countries of the Italian Peninsula who were charging directly against the column!
