Chapter 87: Zhu Di's inner deduction.

"Boom... Bang... Rumble......"

Fifty cannons were lined up, and the commanders of the guns, according to the regulations, fired a salvo from five.

The rumbling sound of the artillery of the Shenji Battalion shook people's eardrums, and their eyes were unconsciously attracted by the artillery in the distance.

"Good fellows, so many!"

Looking at the mighty cannons, many people were a little surprised.

Many people have heard of the artillery of the Shenji Battalion, but most of them have seen it with their own eyes, and it is really the first time that a big girl has sat in a sedan chair.

"Is this artillery? What a loud voice! ”

People who don't understand the principles of artillery attack still use artillery to scare people with their sound. Listening to the deafening rumble, looking at the gunsmoke from the muzzle, covering his ears and whispering in amazement.

With the rumbling sound of cannons, the phalanx of the Shenji Battalion slowly moved forward.

"It's so neat!"

Staring at the neat array, some people couldn't help but widen their eyes and exclaimed in a low voice.

"Boom..."

As the last cannon fell, all the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion drove to the central martial arts arena.

"Stand!"

"Boom!"

Under the order of the leading officer, all the soldiers stopped their steps.

"Left to right~ turn!"

The officer gave another order.

The soldiers who formed the phalanx turned in different directions according to the queue they were in.

"Form a battle queue!"

Another command from the officer sounded.

The soldiers held up their rifles and trotted forward quickly, forming a lateral queue.

"Reload your ammo!"

The soldiers who formed the shooting queue, hearing the officer's order, reached out and took out an ammunition pack from the small satchel on their bodies.

Bite off the oiled paper, pour a little gunpowder into the ignition pool, and then pour the remaining gunpowder into the muzzle.

After pouring the gunpowder, he stuffed the paper bag in his hand into the barrel, pulled out the through rod, stuffed it into the barrel and stabbed it a few times, retracted the through rod, raised the rifle, pulled the hammer, and prepared to shoot.

The overall action takes nearly 20 seconds.

"Hehe, such a slow speed, when they go to the battlefield and wait for them to prepare, the enemy will rush in front of them."

Looking at such a complicated operation, Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but sneer.

Zhu Di glanced back at him, and Zhu Gaoxu instantly shut up.

The old man was well aware of the slow reloading speed of the flintlock pistol.

But that doesn't tell the whole story.

The flintlock pistol is a weapon that can be quickly mastered and has strong lethality.

It takes years or even more than ten years for an archer to be trained.

And a musketeer, with just a few months of training, can go straight to the battlefield.

The two are incomparable.

"First row shooting!"

As the soldiers finished loading, the officer leading the group gave the order to shoot.

"Bang ......"

The soldier, who heard the order, pulled the trigger with his index finger hard.

With the shock of the gun, a burst of gunpowder smoke rose into the air.

The soldier who finished shooting did not put away his gun immediately, but pulled the hammer again and pulled it.

The flintlock pistol does not have a 100% ignition rate.

The flint did not fire, the ignition powder was less, and the gunpowder was damp and not ignited, all of which could cause the gun to not fire.

In order to prevent reloading from being repeated, the soldiers need to fire again after the shot.

The reason why everyone has to do it all over again is because in the fierce battlefield, people's spirits are excited, and it is difficult to pay attention to whether their guns have been fired.

Therefore, in order to prevent accidents, Zhu Zhangui asked the soldiers to use the fastest speed after shooting to carry out a second excitation.

Sure enough, with the second shot, scattered gunshots rang out in the ranks of the soldiers.

"Huh!"

Seeing such a scene, many people laughed.

I think that in addition to the good queue of the Shenji Battalion, it is nothing more than that.

The laughter behind him, Zhu Di didn't say anything.

Others don't know the doorway, but he knows it in his heart.

In order to prevent accidental injuries caused by indiscriminate flying of ammunition, all soldiers of the Shenji Battalion were equipped with only gunpowder and not bullets.

Coupled with the absence of a target, the true lethality and power of the flintlock pistol were not shown at all.

If he was on the battlefield at this time, Zhu Di estimated in his heart that the shooting of the first platoon of the Shenji Battalion would be able to inflict a lot of trauma on the enemy's charging troops.

"Second row shooting!"

As the first platoon finished firing and retreated to the rear of the third platoon, the officer leading the team waved the knife in his hand, and the soldiers in the second platoon stepped forward and stood in front and pulled the trigger.

This was followed by soldiers in the third platoon.

And after the soldiers in the third row finished shooting, the soldiers in the first row had already reloaded, stood in the first row again, raised their rifles, aimed ahead, and pulled the trigger.

Three consecutive shots, the first performance of the Shenji Battalion officially ended.

After the shooting, all the soldiers quickly loaded their ammunition and waited for the next order.

"Salvo of the whole army!"

As the officer's horn sounded, the soldiers of the second and third rows in the back row took a slight step to the left and right, put the muzzle of the gun on the shoulders of the soldiers in the first row, and neatly pulled the trigger in their hands.

Looking at the Shenji Battalion shrouded in gunsmoke, Zhu Di closed his eyes and quickly simulated the picture of the battlefield in his heart.

On the broad prairie, 5,000 Warat cavalry withstood the artillery fire of the Shenji battalion and launched an attack on the main position of the center of the Ming army.

The cavalry was 200 paces away from the formation, and the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion were ready to shoot.

The enemy cavalry was 150 paces away from the formation, and the soldiers of the first platoon of the Shenji battalion pulled the trigger on the order of the officer.

Shots rang out, and projectiles flew out.

Due to the distance, only ten enemies were killed and dozens were wounded.

The enemy cavalry was 120 paces away from the formation, and the second platoon of the Shenji battalion attacked.

Due to the closer distance, the lethality of the rifle has increased considerably.

This round of attacks caused nearly 100 casualties to the enemy.

The third platoon killed and wounded more than 200 enemies.

The enemy cavalry entered 100 steps, and the power of the rifles of the Shenji battalion was completely unleashed.

The first platoon of soldiers fired, causing nearly 200 casualties to the enemy, and the enemy was in small disarray.

The second round of fire caused more than 200 casualties to the enemy, and the enemy was afraid.

The enemy cavalry was close to 80 paces, and the Shenji battalion had entered the range of the enemy's bow and arrow, and the enemy had begun to take off his bow and arrow, ready to shoot.

The third platoon launched a fire, and due to the enemy's drawing of the bow and arrows, a large area of the body was exposed, causing hundreds of casualties among the enemy.

At the same time, the light artillery of the Shenji battalion was launched.

With a shield on his head, he blocked the rain of arrows from the opponent, and shot at the enemy who was already rushing in front of him.

More than 30 artillery pieces fired one after another, causing heavy casualties to the enemy, and the morale of the enemy... Collapse!

At this moment, the soldiers, all reloaded, fired a salvo as the guns retreated.

The morale of the enemy completely collapsed.

The commander of the Chinese army launched a cavalry attack order, and the 3,000 battalions that were ready for life roared out, launched a charge from both sides, and smashed the enemy into the retreating enemy, killing the enemy to a crush.

In this battle, the enemy suffered heavy casualties and almost annihilated the entire army, and our army suffered slight casualties.

This battle, a big victory!
