Speaking of the firearms on both sides, although the iron cannons of the Japanese people look good, the lead bullets they use are only about twelve or thirteen grams, and the lethality is reasonable at close range, and it is difficult to penetrate armor beyond 50 steps!

The guns used by the Wu'an Army are all large-caliber, the amount of ammunition loaded with the guns is more than three times that of the Japanese iron cannons, and the lead bullets are all 26 grams of fixed ammunition, which is extremely powerful! The effective range can reach more than 120 steps, but the accuracy is a little worse! At about eighty paces, the armor worn by the Japanese people pierces with a single blow!

You must know that Liu Haojia chose to send *** board, but it is the brown shell silk smoothbore gun used by the British Empire when it was crisscrossing the world! This gun has traveled all over the world with British soldiers, and it can be said that it is the smoothbore gun that has experienced the most wars in the world!

Huang Guojun is a junior officer in the Wu'an Army and a company commander. Already qualified to be in charge of an independent account. Now the central responsibility is his responsibility.

At this time, his face was already flushed with excitement! After training for so long, it's finally time to go to war! Moreover, the materials sent in advance also let him understand the details of the Japanese people, so he has the confidence to win!

Seeing the Japanese attacking, he carefully estimated the distance between the two sides. As he stepped 120 paces, he shouted, "Check your guns!"

All the musketeers immediately took up their muskets and examined them carefully, looked at the flints and gears on the faucet, and then opened the lid on the medicine pool to check whether the powder was filled in the medicine pool. Sure enough, there were people who made mistakes in their busyness, and found that there was no gunpowder in the medicine pool, so they quickly replenished the gunpowder. The pikemen, on the other hand, fumbled with their helmets and cuirass, and when they were all tied, they remained in a solemn position again.

Whenever the soldiers finished checking themselves, they would report aloud to the superior officer, and then the information would be summarized to Huang Guojun. When the phalanx was quiet, Huang Guojun shouted, "Raise the fire!"

The firecrackers immediately put the firecrackers up in their hands. Then Huang Guojun shouted loudly again: "Flat!"

Hearing the sound of "bang-la-la-la", the gunners in the front row immediately flattened, put the butt of their guns on their shoulders, and pressed their cheeks tightly against each other, and began to aim at each other.

After a few seconds of waiting, the Musketeer heard someone behind him shouting, "Shoot!"

The musketeers, who had already been trained to have muscle memory, immediately pulled the trigger continuously, and then the muskets in their hands were the first to fire! Then several other phalanxes also fired almost simultaneously, and the fire guns sprayed smoke and projectiles!

The Japanese soldiers who were still slowly advancing were still very nervous in their hearts, but when they saw that the other party was a hundred steps away and set off the firecracker, they were not nervous! Someone was actually laughing at these Ming troops in a low voice, and they didn't know how to use iron cannons at all!

Normally, the soldiers were not allowed to talk and laugh in a low voice during the army's actions, but this time the samurai who led the team did not stop them. Because he also felt that the Ming army on the opposite side was ridiculous, how could anyone raise an iron cannon from such a distance! At such a distance, when we got closer, I was afraid that the arms of the soldiers on the opposite side would tremble, let alone aim!

But what surprised him was that they had just walked a few steps away, only to see a flash of red light on the opposite side, and those Ming troops actually took the lead in firing the iron cannon from a distance of a hundred steps! He almost didn't laugh out loud!

But just when the corners of his mouth were a little curved, six of the soldiers in the front row actually fell! Two of them were lying motionless on the ground, apparently directly killed! The other four threw away their iron cannons and fell to the ground and wailed!

The scene in front of him almost stunned the commanding samurai of this phalanx! How could the iron cannon of the Ming army fight so far?

Just when he was surprised, the sound of firing guns sounded again on the opposite side! The samurai looked up in surprise, and he was sure that five more soldiers had fallen from the front row! And at this time, the soldiers have begun to panic, and this kind of situation of being beaten and not being able to fight back is the most demoralizing!

And this samurai was sure that his casualties were indeed caused by iron cannons! Because a buckshot flew over his head, and the whistling sound was very familiar to him! However, this lead bullet woke him up, and he looked at the other phalanxes in panic, only to see that the other phalanxes had also been hit by the firecrackers!

The only difference is the number of dead and wounded! The fewest phalanx fell five men in the shot just now, and the largest one

Eight people fell!

The familiar taste of war made him quickly calm down after many years of war career, and the quick order he gave was to order the ashigaru to speed up his pace! In his imagination, as long as he can get close to the opponent and shoot, he will be able to defeat the opponent quickly!

But to his despair, no sooner had he given his order than the third row of buckshot came whizzing again, knocking down seven men in his ranks! The samurai shouted in despair, "Hurry up! Pick up the pace! They are so fast because they have loaded gunpowder in advance, and now they will slow down immediately! Take this opportunity to get close to them! Quick!"

The soldiers gritted their teeth and no longer looked at the dead and wounded, nor listened to the wails of the wounded, and tried to bow their heads and move forward. The samurai of several other phalanxes also issued the same order almost at the same time, and several phalanxes all increased their speed in unison!

The iron cannons in the front row all strode forward, driving the phalanx behind to speed up, but their mood was completely different! The people behind thought that the striker had gained the advantage and was advancing happily! And the iron cannon Ashigaru is suppressing his fears and moving forward quickly!

They thought they would be able to defeat the enemy by getting close enough to enter the counter-fire phase, and they also felt that their opponents would not have such a high rate of fire after firing their preloaded ammo. However, if they could get close to each other, they would find that the commanders of several phalanxes of the Wu'an Army had invariably strengthened all the firecrackers on the other three sides of the phalanx to the front! Only a few people are left to maintain the formation!

This method formed a six-row human wall in front of the phalanx, and the rain of bullets they formed in turn would bring horror to the Japanese people for a lifetime!

After the firecrackers in the phalanx fired the first row of firearms, the soldiers who were still a little nervous immediately relaxed and quickly entered the state of training. They shoot almost instinctively, back off, reload, step forward, shoot! It's as smooth as a clock!

And the result is a volley of shots almost every ten seconds, and the lead bullets are fired at each other like a torrential rain! The opponent's phalanx is full of gaps! Although the Japanese soldiers bravely stepped forward to fill the position, they were still shattered by the formation of the firecrackers!
