Chapter 52: Ghost of the Night
Zhu Youjian held the heavy rifle, relieved and regretful.
It turned out that after Yue Ban got the rifle sketch, he immediately found someone to make it. However, the technical requirements are too high, and there have been many failures.
Later, under Zhu Youjian's guidance several times, he invited several masters of the Shenji Battalion to study together, and he barely made a batch of finished products.
After Zhu Youjian inspected it, he smiled bitterly in his heart, only 3 of the dozens of rifles met the requirements of actual combat.
Everything else needs to be remodulated.
Especially for bullets, the process accuracy requirements are too high, and the requirements for gunpowder are even more demanding.
Far beyond the industrial level of this era.
Fortunately, Zhu Youjian learned the basic principles and methods when he was a special soldier, and he also had some practical experience.
Under the hand-in-hand teaching, Yue Ban and those teachers forgot to sleep and eat, relied on pure handwork, and polished for five days before they made more than 100 qualified bullets.
These bullets, plus three rifles, are now all in the army and have become Zhu Youjian's royal weapons.
Tonight is the best time to test the actual combat effect.
I saw Zhu Youjian pick up his rifle and aim at the enemy camp.
"Bang!"
A gunshot rang out, and in the Mongolian camp, a trumpet-blowing soldier burst into a bloody mist on his head and fell to the ground.
"If only there was an LS06 submachine gun......" Zhu Youjian muttered as he laboriously changed his bullets.
"It's a pity that with the current level of craftsmanship, it will be difficult to build a machine gun in three or five years.
Even if it is built, the supply of bullets is a problem. ”
Tian Shouxin and Wang Chengen both followed behind Chongzhen, and were shocked to see Zhu Youjian kill an enemy soldier from a long distance.
Although Zhu Youjian had introduced the power of this weapon to them before, when he really saw its power, he was still shocked to dislocate his jaw.
"Holy Lord, this gun is really an artifact!" Wang Chengen admired.
"That's it? Also the artifact? Zhu Youjian shook the rifle in his hand and said with disgust.
"Isn't it an artifact that you can kill enemies at such a distance?" Wang Chengen's eyes widened.
"When I make an AWM sniper rifle in the future, the effective range can reach more than 1,100 steps! Besides, the artifact is a bit of a sideline.
There's also a Gatling machine gun, which can effectively hit enemies up to 500 paces and shoot 30 buckshot in a single breath! ”
Wang Chengen was dumbfounded, after the resurrection of the saint, if you want to talk about the big tone, he is definitely the first person in the world!
Due to the scarcity of bullets, Zhu Youjian did not dare to waste bullets on unnecessary people and worked hard to find Mongolian generals.
Therefore, the frequency of shooting was slowed down and the shooting was carefully observed.
In the barracks, a Mongolian cavalryman waving a knife and shouting led 7 people around him to attack the three-person squad of the Ming army.
The team of 3 had just besieged a lone enemy, and they didn't want retribution to come too quickly, so they were immediately besieged by 8 enemies.
The Ming army struggled to block, but there were not enough people, and soon one person was cut off his horse.
"Bang!"
A Mongolian soldier was shot in the neck and fell directly from his horse.
"Bang!"
Another Mongol soldier was struck in the forehead and dismounted.
Four shots in a row to take down four enemy soldiers.
Although the soldiers of the Ming army did not know who was helping, they knew that the opportunity could not be lost, and took advantage of the efforts of the Mongols to find the enemy, and took out five arrows and crossbows and shot them.
Although the five-arrow crossbow is not very good, it is completely fine at such a close distance.
Whoosh ......
Ten sharp arrows burst out, and the three cavalrymen on the opposite side were immediately hit by arrows and lost their ability to fight.
Zhu Youjian looked away, looked around for the Mongolian soldiers who had gathered, and kept shooting, constantly killing the main Mongolian generals and core figures.
At this moment, he is like a ghost in the night, ruthlessly harvesting the lives of enemy generals.
After a while, 20 rounds of ammunition were used, and the barrel was already hot, so he ordered someone to change the gun.
On the battlefield, Duan Luobu, under the escort of a group of personal soldiers, looked at the constantly erosive battlefield and was extremely angry.
The cunning Ming man deliberately showed weakness and made himself underestimate the enemy, which could not be forgiven.
He shouted for command, and after a while, more than 100 people gathered around him.
A considerable combat force has been formed.
This scene happened to let Zhu Youjian see it from afar.
He didn't know that he had been wronged for deliberately showing weakness, and if he had, he would have said, "That's what I thought!" It's just showing weakness and pit you, what's the matter, you're going to beat me! ”
When Zhu Youjian looked at the outfit, he knew that the Mongolian in the center belonged to the noble level.
Without the slightest hesitation, Zhu Youjian quickly aimed and pulled the trigger.
"Bang!"
Bullets are galloping.
Duan Luobu, who was commanding loudly, was shot in the right eye, and fell to the ground with a bang.
More than 100 guards were shocked, and while looking for the enemy, they hugged Duan Luobu and retreated, and the scene was suddenly chaotic.
Wu Sangui, who was not far away, was keenly aware of this chaos, and immediately knew that an important person in the enemy had fallen off his horse, seized the fighter plane, and rushed over with hundreds of men and horses.
Having lost the backbone of the main body and having to protect the prince, the narrow military camp became the soft underbelly of the Mongols, and the outer Mongolian cavalry guarding Duanluobu could not stop Wu Sangui's onslaught at all, and was quickly killed and scattered.
Hundreds of Ming troops surrounded Duanluobu and his group, and constantly released five-arrow crossbows to kill the enemy's living forces.
Seeing that Prince Duanluo Bu was about to be captured alive or even beheaded.
His own soldiers shouted in unskilled Chinese: "This is the prince of Karaqinde, don't kill him, we can surrender!" ”
The Mongols were not ashamed to surrender and flee.
They can fight fiercely, and they can also flexibly flee for their lives, and even surrender.
Everything you do is for survival, and as long as it's conducive to survival, that's the right option in the world.
Their philosophy of survival was learned from wolves, and it was difficult for any religion to restrain them.
The prince's face was wounded, his face was covered with blood, and at first glance it was a serious injury, and surrendering at this time was the best option to save the prince's life.
Whoosh ......
Prince? So what's polite? The Ming army shot more fiercely after hearing it!
That's the prince, who has a great deal of merit!
Wu Sangui was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly stopped the soldiers from firing, "Accept surrender and lay down your arms!" ”
"Hahahaha...... This one has been defeated! Wu Sangui laughed.
After a while, under Wu Sangui's arrangement, people could be heard shouting in Mongolian everywhere in the barracks:
"Karaqin surrendered, laid down his arms, and moved closer to the Ming army."
Duan Luobu was controlled by the Ming army, slowly left the battlefield, and went to the front of the Ming army.
The soldiers of the Ming army helped Duan Luobu, whose face was covered with blood, to the high platform and raised dozens of torches for more Karaqin people to see.
After a while, more and more Karaqin heard the cry and saw that their masters had indeed surrendered, and they all laid down their weapons and were captured.
"I surrender too." Someone raised a weapon.
The Karaqin action drove more Mongols who were afraid of death, whether they were Karaqin or not, to take the opportunity to lay down their arms in order to save their lives.
Wu Sangui's eyes were like torches, looking at more than 10,000 strong men, there was no reason to waste.
"Let the surrendered Tatars go to war! Put it on the front line! ”
The situation on the battlefield suddenly changed, and the Ming army drove the prisoners and began to advance rapidly into the depths of the Mongol military camp.
……
Outside a very large army tent that had not yet caught fire, more than a dozen Mongols nervously looked at the large group of Ming cavalry that surrounded them.
Although his face was afraid, no one evacuated, and his eyes gradually became firm when he looked at the enemy and his outnumbered enemies.
The Ming army also saw that these people were quite death-defying and homely, and saw that they were better equipped than ordinary Mongols, and vaguely guessed that there were important people in the military tent.
Xiao Qi, the leader of the team, was unwilling to fight with them, so he beckoned more people to come over and fired a salvo directly with a five-arrow crossbow.
Whoosh ......
Soon, the Mongols on the outskirts of the tent were killed.
Several Ming soldiers broke into the military tent with five-arrow crossbows and saw a man covered in bandages, lying on a tiger skin.
"Don't kill us, we surrender!" The two guards screamed in shock.
