Chapter 80: Assault on both sides
The soldiers nodded heavily, and said word by word, obviously they also clearly knew that the strength of the Coral Islands barbarian army in front of them was not simple
A big stroke of the pen
"Everybody attack, attack, attack."
In an instant, it seemed to be a landslide and tsunami, and more than 2,000 people let out a roar and rushed out quickly.
If you look closely, you can see that these people are murderous, and some of them rush to the front, and finally make a roaring sound, like barbarians,
A scene like this, that is, the most powerful posture of their attack, Zhao Zhi looked at the army that was rushing over endlessly, with a cold look on his mouth, and then shook his head
"It's really a pity, I'm willing to use artillery for you as a navy, so in addition, the army should also be paired with firearms, I didn't think of the knot. It's just cold weapon combat, you guys are too stupid to turn it upside down."
Zhao Zhi snorted coldly, if the other party could have any means of long-range attack, maybe he would be frightened, after all, the war would be dead, but he didn't expect the other party to rush up directly, and he didn't use his hand to attack remotely, just based on this, he knew that the other party was just going to the rabble,
In fact, if you think about it, he also had some misunderstandings about Kane Brandt.
For the soldiers led by Kanebright, some of them naturally had short guns in their hands, but the short-range bullets were limited, and they were very troublesome to fight.
In contrast, using the knife and gun in your hand to rush directly forward, you can be hacked to death with one sword, which is quite simple.
Rushing up quickly between words, the next one, suddenly saw Chen Zhaoshi's big hand wave, the shield and step by step forward, the archer behind him shot arrows with a whoosh, and the arrows fell instantly, and even shot a lot of people.
But except for a few unlucky ghosts, the vast majority of them have already rushed to kill.
Kane Brandt rushed to the front and looked at the brute army in front of him, showing a crazy look
"Heh, do you think they are so good that you don't think there are only a few rounds of archery? When it comes to confronting each other head-on, they will directly knock their camp into the air, and there will be no problem at all. ”
Kane Brandt had already thought of a strategy in an instant, this method of action was very simple, but it was quite effective.
The next moment, suddenly there was a sound of breaking the air in my ears, and I saw that behind the shield soldier in front of me was a spearman.
Behind the long-haired soldier were archers, and on either side were musketeers with muskets, and in an instant, the musket battalion continued to attack, and the bullets attacked the army like a tide.
Kane Brandt pointed out that there are people who feel that life is constant, but some bullets are faster than bows and arrows, and they are more terrible than bows and arrows.
"What is this? Is this a firearm? ”
"Firearms, I didn't expect the army in front of me to be equipped with firearms"
"Damn it!"
Thinking of this, Kane Brandt waved his hand, turned his head and shouted
"Firearms? Our musketeers? Musketeers hurry up and attack, hurry up and attack"
That's right, since the West is more interested in medicine, it can make all kinds of weapons and cannons for sale
For them, it is very important to make a weapon, to make an equipment that is not counted as a loss.
Between words
I saw that among the army led by Kane Brandt, rows of musketeers quickly rushed out, running and triggering the trigger, but their muskets seemed quite ridiculous to Zhao Zhi, this was the equipment they had eliminated.
Thermal weapons will be the main theme of future wars, and firearms will be the absolute combat effectiveness of future wars.
In the past, in the face of such words, Zhao Zhi didn't believe it, after all, they started from a reckless generation, relying on the big sword in their hands and the number of soldiers.
The more soldiers there are, the more powerful the knives and guns in their hands, then they can use the tactics of the sea of people to solve the enemy.
But since following the marshal Chen Zhang, I found that the tactics of the sea of people are simply a fragile thing compared to the musket, and the combat effectiveness of the musket far exceeds that of ordinary people.
No matter how powerful you are in the face of the musket, you can only hate the northwest forever in the end, even if you are an infinitely powerful overlord, you will be as rude as a child in front of the musket.
Of course, muskets are not the easiest thing, and if you want to build a musket, you need a lot of resources, and these resources are not something that ordinary forces can afford."
Just like the Dachang Empire, even with such human resources, they don't have such a mind, they will only squander their money elsewhere, and will definitely not spend the money on building muskets.
From this aspect, it can be seen that the pattern of the leader of a force can determine its strength, and now the barbarian commander of the Coral Islands has invested most of his money and resources in the research and development of gunpowder even after occupying the Coral Islands and Carlos Islands.
It can be said that the amount of money spent on research and development of weapons and research and development can be said to be countless, and even more than military spending is more exaggerated than military spending in many cases, and it has also been greatly resisted by Zhao Zhi and other military
But in the face of such a situation, the lord Chen Zhang is responsible for it, and now it is time to blossom and bear fruit.
Zhao Zhi let out a long breath and waved his big hand
"Offense"
Countless bullets instantly roared into a three-hit formation, almost forming a death zone for the enemy in front of him, and instantly fell to the ground.
Although these soldiers fought bravely and rushed forward with shouts, they were greeted by a rain of bullets, and countless bullets instantly knocked them into a hornet's nest.
Zhao Zhi shouted loudly on the side
"Aim, everyone aim for me and then shoot, don't forget, you are using muskets in your hands, and the bullet casings from muskets are very valuable, don't give me an empty gun, don't give me an empty gun"
Zhao Zhi's heart is in this drop of blood, the musket is indeed very powerful, but the weakness of the musket is also quite obvious, if there is no bullet, it is a burning iron rod, but the musket with bullets is definitely overwhelming, enough to make people creepy
This also proves that when the musket goes off, the gold does not say ten thousand taels, and there are at least a few taels of silver, which is also a matter of no problem at all.
It can be said that the musket bullets of thermal weapons are completely accumulated with real money, and of course their effects are also outstanding
"Damn, what's going on? Muskets: Does the other party have so many muskets? What are you kidding? ”
In contrast, Kane Brandt's eyes were round, and there was a look of consternation in his eyes.
In his impression, even if the other party is powerful, there are only a few muskets at most, most of them rely on the swords and clubs in their hands to attack, but he didn't expect that most of the opponents are muskets, and the bullets of the muskets are constantly surging one after another like a tide, and even some are terrified, and they don't know what to do next.
"Don't be afraid. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid of each other, even if you have artillery, even if you have muskets, their strength is nothing more than that, rush over and rush into the opponent's camp, you can solve the opponent"
"Don't be afraid, everyone"
Kane Brandt roared loudly
Just kidding, who are they, they belong to the members of Thomas Canyon, their strength is absolutely strong, how can they be defeated by these armies in front of them, this is impossible.
As he spoke, more than 2,000 soldiers behind him rushed forward frantically, and they rushed forward directly in the Thomas Canyon under the rain of bullets, and they had long been accustomed to seeing firearms, but they were not too afraid of these bullets, and rushed forward with bared teeth.
Many people also bent down slightly, cowering together as much as possible, to prevent themselves from being hit by artillery or bullets to the greatest extent, and quickly rushed to the front, shouting loudly
"Kill you, kill you, you must be killed"
As he spoke, one after the other rushed forward quickly, and with a bang, the shield soldiers attacked each other
The next moment, the shield soldiers held the shield with a solemn look in their eyes, it was obvious that they also knew what their ability was, and the shields in their hands completely resisted the enemy one after another, not asking for anything else, only to be able to completely destroy the enemy, not to let the enemy attack themselves, this is the most important thing.
"Don't be afraid, definitely don't be afraid to attack, attack"
The next moment, there was a look of astonishment on their faces, in their concepts, they should completely rush into the opponent's army with their own ability, and completely kill the shield team with their swords.
But unexpectedly, the armor on these shield soldiers was quite thick, and the shield was huge, completely enveloping their whole body behind them, so that they had no way to break it in the first place.
The most important thing is that behind the shield soldiers, the long contradictions in the hands of the spearmen pierced them to the heart, and one after another with a look of excellence on their faces. Things have turned out completely unexpected, and there is fear in their eyes.
Immediately after that, the musket continued to attack behind him, and the bullets were like a tide, and there was a flesh mill in front of him, and in an instant, a large number of corpses fell to the ground, at all. There's no way to move forward.
"No, no, we can't keep up with the general, the other side is a shield soldier, this shield soldier will protect the entire camp, if we go into a frontal attack, the consequences will be really unimaginable."
"I'm afraid I don't even know what the situation will be like when I die, the opponent's camp is impregnable, and there are spearmen to defend, so we will suffer very heavy losses if we continue to do so."
Numerous soldiers shouted loudly
Kane Brandt's face changed instantly, and he also sensed that something was wrong, and turned his head away
"In that case, what are you waiting for? Notify others immediately. Attack from both sides quickly, and even send a part of the army to raid from the rear, since there are shield soldiers in the front, then we will raid from both sides and behind, and finally the inside and outside should be combined to solve the other side, don't tell me, you can't even do this."
Kane Brandt said coldly I have to say that he was still quite at the beginning of the meeting, and he sensed what the situation was like on the battlefield in an instant.
After listening, several pro-soldiers nodded heavily, and immediately understood what was going on, we knew
As he spoke, each led hundreds of people to go around to both sides, they wanted to bypass the army of the barbarian army led by the accident in front of them, and then directly eliminate the enemy.
"Offensive Offense"
Zhao Zhi stood behind him and shouted loudly, his face changed slightly, in other words, he should have rushed to the front before, but now as long as he sits in the center, this is what the marshal Chen Zhang said, the real battle in the future is actually quite rare, and most of them require you to have the ability to command.
Sometimes having a qualified commander is more important than a charging general. Zhao Zhi didn't know it before, but now he can say that he has deep feelings and clearly understands what this is all about.
suddenly
Beside him, a soldier scout ran over and said
"General, we have found that the enemy seems to have drawn up his forces and wants to attack from our left and right, and they want to carry out a surprise attack."
"What? Want to go on a raid? ”
Zhao Zhi's brow and smile immediately understood what was going on?
"Interesting, it seems that we all have some underestimated them too much, what kind of thoughts did I think they would have, they would be obediently disarmed and surrendered, hehe, I didn't expect them to be able to make such a move, I have to say, this is really something I didn't expect"
"In that case, let them go, I want to see if they think they will be our opponents if they come running like this? It's just wishful thinking. ”
Zhao Zhi's brows furrowed slightly, he didn't have any surprises about such a situation, but it was all expected
During the training, the lord Chen Zhang had already told them that the combat of such a thermal weapon would have some limitations and disadvantages."
After all, the strength of the musketeer is indeed relatively strong, but its weakness is also quite significant, that is, once the melee combat.
The strength of the musketeers is not as good as that of ordinary soldiers, which is a huge weakness.
But now that we know about the other side's surprise attack, it's easy to say, "immediately lead the soldiers of the two armies to surround the left and right, and solve the enemy at once."
"If they don't come, that's fine, but if they do, hehe, I'll let them know what a real ambush is, thinking that this will be the way to carry out a raid?"
"I really thought we were easy to bully."
Zhao Zhi snorted coldly, and soon two armies went directly to the ambush on both sides.
