Chapter 266, give Tsarist Russia a little bit of oriental shock
Bang bang bang!
Under the dense gunfire, the bullets fired from rifled guns carried a spin-stabilized trajectory, which brought a very terrifying hit rate - especially since the current Tsarist Russian army had never fought against an opponent who was massively equipped with rifled guns, so they had no sense of dodging at all.
Europe in this era.
One hundred and fifty paces awayβthat's about two hundred yards away.
The flintlock smoothbore is basically up to God to hit the enemy at this distance.
Therefore, if anyone dodges bullets at this distance, it will definitely be ridiculed and degraded as an act of military honor.
But in the Eastern Theater, no matter who has been taught to be a man by rifled guns, if you don't find cover, don't crouch down or lie down to narrow the front bomb surface, then basically can't survive a battle.
So the battle that is taking place at this moment is a one-sided slaughter to be exact.
It was the hunting of the soldiers of the Sei Capital Division armed with rifled guns.
Those Russians are just so stupid.
They actually stood upright, without crouching or lying down, or looking for cover for protection.
It's like a quail that has been beaten up.
And what they have to do is simpler than what they do on the training ground.
Aim.
Shoot!
Under the dense gunfire, the bullets rained down.
The Russian hunters in front of them were constantly shot in the chest.
Blood splattered.
Screams and wails came and went.
'Devil! Devil! Chinese are devils! β
"Help"
"Mom. Mom, I shouldn't have come to the East. β
"It hurts."
The wails of the Russian language resounded on the battlefield.
The Russian soldiers, who had not fully breathed their breath after being shot, were wailing.
And in this short period of time.
The hundreds of Russian hunters were soon left standing forward.
Rear.
Anatoly, the commander of the 1st Brigade of the 11th Infantry Division of the Russian Empire, who was watching the battle with a telescope, had trembling hands.
He watched as more than a hundred hunters were hunted and slaughtered almost completely without the power to fight back!
Yes!
It's a hunt!
Didn't it take more than two minutes?
My God.
Is this war or slaughter!
If war turns out like this, which country can afford to fight?
After such a war, a generation of men in a country will die - Anatoly inadvertently predicted a terrible war at this time.
Didn't the First World War almost drain the blood of the Europeans?
"Sir, our hunters can't shoot at each other! The other side doesn't seem to be fighting the tactics of the line infantry, what are we going to do now? β
What to do?
Anatoly had cold hands and feet.
It was also the first time he had encountered such an opponent who did not play according to the routine.
In Europe, on the battlefields of Russia and the Ottoman Empire.
Everyone uses similar weapons and similar tactics, and in the end, it is the courage of the soldiers that competes!
And now.
The tactics used by the opposing side did not appear in Europe at all.
The military school didn't teach what to do in this situation.
Anatoly forced himself to calm down, and without the cover of the chasseurs, the line infantry rushed up to basically send them to death.
"Retreat first, retreat," Anatoly said loudly, "dig trenches for defense!" β
Really.
Encounter an opponent with too much firepower.
Digging a pit and hiding is almost human instinct.
But his words had just fallen.
On the position of the Ming army in front.
Bursts of dull cannon fire rang out continuously and intensively, and then he saw a terrible scene.
A large number of shells were thrown into the air, and with very high parabolas, they smashed down towards the horizontal line of the 5th Infantry Regiment of the Russian army.
It was impossible for a huge part of the shells to hit the thin row directly.
But the fragments of the violent explosion swept through the line.
Blood lines soared.
Many Russian soldiers didn't even have time to scream, and went to see God.
That's lucky.
Unfortunately, those soldiers who were hit by shell fragments in non-lethal areas such as legs and feet.
A Russian soldier stared and wailed, his hands gagged his bleeding thigh.
In the thigh, a shrednel cut wound took away a large piece of flesh, and with the current medical conditions, even if he was admitted to the most advanced Daming Royal Hospital now, no doctor would be able to save him from the hands of death - this artery was bleeding profusely, and he would almost soon lose his life.
There are also fragments of shells inserted into the abdomen, which crushed the large intestine and small intestine.
Those whose feet were broken by the shells were covered by the sand that burst out of the shells
A round of shelling down.
A regiment of the Russian Imperial Infantry of two thousand seven hundred men suffered heavy losses, and the wide and dense line was completely disorganized.
"Well played!"
Fan Baoyi, who was leaning on a small mound with a gun and only poked his head out to check, sighed.
He now understands how cool the "Great Tomorrow Soldier" is.
Rewards and punishments are open and fair, and these are not to be said.
Just before this war, there was a round of shelling.
I can't stand it, no matter what it is.
Even if the Rakshasa ghost on the other side is really a ghost, then I can't stand it.
What's more, they're just a bunch of baiyi.
Oh.
I've heard that they're not going to be welcomed on the Europa side either.
Seen as a barbarian.
Maybe it's the same as the feeling that the Manchurians and Mongols felt about the Han Chinese?
And this European version of the Tartar is not very good at combat effectiveness.
Back then, he was beaten by the Mongols.
Now it is generous, from a slave of the Golden Horde to a great power of Europa.
However, even if you are the king and hegemon in Europa, you still dare to expand to the east and be neighbors with the Ming Dynasty.
Do you think you are a Xiongnu or a Mongol?
Fan Baoyi admired the tragic situation of the enemy, took out the pocket watch in his arms and looked at the time.
The shelling would last for a quarter of an hour, and as soon as the shelling was over, his battalion would immediately assault and rush in front of the enemy to launch a fierce attack before he could gather and assemble.
There is not a single minute of time to be delayed.
Under the shell bombardment.
The 5th Infantry Regiment of the Russian army was in a mess, and the horizontal formation, which was originally very neat, was completely invisible.
The battlefield was littered with Russian soldiers scurrying around with their weapons in their hands, their heads in their hands.
It seems that the fighting nation is also a human being, and it is unbearable to stand up to the shelling.
In the rear.
The soldiers and regiments of another infantry regiment and a Cossack cavalry regiment in the reserve, had cold backs and pale faces.
An infantry regiment was scattered the moment it touched each other.
Before the troops were dispatched, the idea of underestimating the enemy that permeated the Russian army has now completely disappeared.
They were horrified to find.
The general, who was ridiculed as "Mikhail of rabbit guts", was right.
Army of the Russian Empire
It was no match for the Ming Empire's army at all - it wasn't even their elite direct army.
It is a vassal army composed of the defeated generals of the Ming Empire and the remnants of the Qing Empire!
Even the vassal army composed of the defeated generals of the Ming Empire could not be defeated.
That.
How strong should the army directly under the Ming Empire be?
Brigadier Anatoly and Regiment Commander Pernov had the same look of fear on their faces.
The 5th Infantry Regiment is finished!
They didn't even dare to send reserves to meet them, because who knows how long the Ming artillery fire would last?
Their shells were poured down as if they didn't need money.
Completely covers a large area in front of you.
The two couldn't even imagine.
Who among the soldiers of the 5th Infantry Regiment could survive such intensive artillery fire.
They can't imagine either.
The army of the Empire. What does it take to defeat this formidable opponent?
"We shouldn't be enemies of the Ming Empire! Because it will cost us unbearable! β
The words of Lieutenant General Mikhail are still in my ears.
Anatoly's hands were shaking.
Right now.
The cannon fire ahead stopped.
