Zhu Yunxi did not let the soldiers lie down like in later generations.

Although he also trained in this tactic when he was training at the Military Academy.

But now, in the face of the menacing robbers and anti-thieves, Zhu Yunxi has adopted the simplest method.

Line up to shoot tactics.

This tactic was ridiculed by many in later generations.

Standing there one by one, as if they were living targets, let the enemy attack.

However, such a "stupid" tactic has been popular for more than 200 years, which shows that it also has its own uniqueness.

It is impossible that for more than two hundred years, the generals and soldiers of various countries have been fools and cannot see the disadvantages of this tactic, right?

It was precisely because this tactic was suitable for the weapons and equipment of the time that it was widely adopted.

Zhu Yunxi is a take-it-it-taker, and he has ready-made experience in later generations, so of course he can use it.

The new army lined up in neat rows, ready to fight.

Under the city of Jiaxing is an endless plain.

By this time, the autumn harvest season had passed, and all the crops in the fields had been harvested.

There is no obstruction in the field of view, which is perfect for gun shooting.

The army of robbers and thieves is approaching step by step.

When he saw that there was a group of hundreds of soldiers and horses under the city in front of him, and he did not enter the city to escape, the leading Japanese robbers let out a roar.

These people are not afraid of us?

Didn't you panic and run away?

You know, since the Japanese landed on the seashore, they have hardly encountered decent resistance.

The soldiers of the Ming army, who had not been on the battlefield for a long time, were completely unable to fight the murderous Japanese invaders.

It's no wonder that the Ming army is not to blame.

The military households of the Ming army are actually a kind of pseudo-professional army.

Their first occupation was actually farming.

Being a soldier is only incidental, it is an amateur.

After the pacification of the southeast, none of the new generation of military men who grew up in this generation have ever been on the battlefield.

In peacetime, the most I do is not military training, but farm work.

On the contrary, the Japanese who fled to the sea due to the war and chaos of the Japanese kingdom were all truly professional samurai classes.

Most of them are still the elite of the elite, and they have the ability to escape thousands of miles at sea.

A professional samurai, when he meets an amateur military household, the outcome can be imagined.

Professional fighting amateur, in any professional field, has always been a one-sided hanging.

As a result, the Japanese became more and more arrogant and looked down on the Ming army more and more.

At this time, seeing that the Ming army saw them, they did not run away, but tried to resist stubbornly, and the Japanese were enraged.

In the past, they were few in number, and the Ming army still fled.

And now, they are with Zhang Shicheng's old department, smuggler salt dealers, and many traitors and rebels who defected to them, there are tens of thousands of people, like a mountain of seas, this Ming army still dares to fight?

"Kill, kill them!"

The leading Japanese servant, Sanburo Okada, waved his sword and pointed forward.

In an instant, the Japanese robbers behind them all let out strange cries of fear like birds, and rushed towards the new army.

Generally speaking, when faced with the enemy, the Japanese will drive the traitors who defect to them to take the lead.

To send them to death is also to let them send.

The lives of these people are not valuable, and since they have become the servant army of the Japanese invaders, they must have the consciousness of sending them to death.

Otherwise, what would they do with them?

It's better to kill it directly.

Today, however, the pirates were the first to attack.

In the eyes of Okada Sanburo, the Ming army under the city should be cornered.

When the Ming army in the city saw their men coming, they were unwilling to open the city gate and let them in.

They have nowhere to run.

Such an army is very tragic.

It seems that he is not afraid of life and death, but in fact, the soldiers are frightened.

They are ready to die, but they don't have the courage to fight desperately.

Okada Sanburo decided to let the servant army that followed them look at the terrifying combat power of the Japanese samurai and slaughter the Ming army in front of him.

Therefore, he let the Japanese take the lead in the charge, rather than the servant army taking the lead.

Zhu Yunxi watched quietly.

The pirates are getting closer, closer and closer.

One hundred steps, seventy steps, sixty steps......

The tactics of the Japanese were different from those of the Ming army.

They also used bows and arrows, but they did not usually fire a salvo of arrows before they could attack, followed by a phalanx of infantry.

It's not that they don't have bows and arrows, but their bows and arrows are very different from those of the Ming Dynasty.

Don't look at the average height of the pirates, who are less than 1.5 meters tall, they are all pitifully short, but the bows on their backs are more than two meters long.

It is easy not to shoot arrows, but the arrows that are shot are so powerful that those who hit them will almost die.

However, the advantage of the arrows fired by this bow is that it is extremely armor-piercing, and can shoot through iron armor.

However, the disadvantage is that the range is too long, so it cannot form a rain of arrows.

No matter what bow fires an arrow, it can't compare to the bullets fired by a gun.

The kinetic energy of the arrows shot by a heavy bow of more than 100 catties is only about 100 joules.

The kinetic energy of modern rifles in later generations is as high as more than 2,000 joules.

Even the arquebus has a kinetic energy of 700 joules.

The flintlock pistols of the new army, although inferior to the modern rifles of later generations, were far stronger than the arquebuses.

As for the rear-loading guns, which shoot fixed ammunition, they are even stronger.

Many people only know that the range of a bow and arrow is about 100 paces, and in the case of a tailwind, it can be even further.

Then it was thought that the range of the guns was only 400 paces (400 meters).

In fact, if the gun is pulled to the maximum range by firing obliquely into the sky, like the rain of arrows, then the maximum range of the bullet of a rifle with an effective range of 400 paces can reach more than 5,000 meters.

At this distance, there is still lethality.

It's just that there is no quasi-head to speak of, only random hits.

For modern armies that pursue accurate shooting, this is not cost-effective, and the opponent will also have protection, so it is usually not used.

But it also shows the horror of firearms.

The same is true of Zhu Yunxi's new army.

"Load, raise the gun, aim!" Zheng He's thick voice is giving orders.

Rows of new sergeants quickly loaded their ammunition and raised their guns in their hands.

The Japanese did not even shoot arrows with their bows and arrows, but rushed forward with their swords.

In the eyes of the soldiers of the new army, these guys are completely live targets.

Seeing the wolf who rushed over with a scream in his mouth, Zhu Yunxi was greatly relieved.

After all, it is the first time to lead troops to fight and face the real battlefield, and it must be false to say that you are not nervous.

Although he is very confident, the equipment of the new army, in the face of the current Japanese invaders, is definitely a dimensionality reduction blow.

But the battlefield is changing rapidly, and accidents can occur at any time.

For example, if the Japanese did not take the lead in the attack, but ordered the traitorous servants to take the lead, the situation would be very unfavorable to them.

The number of opponents is tens of thousands.

The new army's fixed ammunition is only 10,000 rounds in total.

The remaining 400 flintlock pistols, carrying gunpowder, could only fire tens of thousands of shots in total.

Even if the other side stood there and did not move, using the new army as a target, it was unknown whether they could all be killed.

Not to mention, there will always be many bullets missing on the battlefield.

Or in the body of a soldier, a lot of bullets are fired.

According to statistics in later generations, during World War II, the average US military had to kill an enemy with an average of 25,000 bullets.

By the time of the Korean War, the number was an average of 50,000 rounds.

By the Vietnam War, it had become 200,000 rounds.

By the time of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, it had become a staggering 250,000 rounds.

Of course, this is also because a large number of bullets are used for fire suppression, or because of harassment, panic emptying the magazine, a large number of bullets are fired into the air, forming a huge waste.

But it also shows that the consumption of bullets is staggering.

However, in this day and age, the other side has no guns, no need to fight, no need to dodge, and no need to suppress firepower, and it is still possible to eliminate an enemy with a few bullets.

The rest depends on how strong the other party's will is and whether they will run away.

Fifty-five steps, fifty steps......

On the city wall above, Xu Dongjiang looked at this scene in horror.

He originally thought that after he refused His Royal Highness Taisun to enter the city, he would definitely let Jiang Zhen escape with him.

Flee quickly.

The new army and the Jinyi guards who remained were slaughtered by the Japanese and the rebels.

In this way, His Royal Highness Taisun suffered a defeat, but did not die because of it, at most he was a little frightened, and he was also easy to give to the imperial court.

Huang Zicheng's request was also realized.

This is the best-case scenario.

Although Xu Dongjiang was bold, he was not crazy enough to kill all his nine clans.

But His Royal Highness Taisun didn't run away?

The Japanese have already forced over, and if they don't escape, it will be really too late.

"Run!" He stomped his foot hard, his face pale with fright.

Is this a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, or is it young and ignorant!

I knew that His Royal Highness Taisun was so temperamental, and he would rather die than retreat, and he should have been let into the city just now.

In this battle, perhaps His Royal Highness Taisun is dead, and the purpose of those people in the court has been achieved, but his nine clans also have to be buried.

Xu Dongjiang knew very well that as long as the imperial grandson died, those people promised that they would pretend to be sadder than anyone else one by one, and support His Majesty to pursue responsibility regardless of everything.

Anyway, the purpose was achieved. Who cares that he is a nine clans of the Jiaxing prefect?

But now, it's too late to say anything.

on the city walls.

The soldiers of the guard looked at the new army below.

One by one, they all showed admiration.

In the face of the Japanese who are more ferocious than wild beasts, they can not move.

Not a single person was afraid, not a single person fled.

Just standing there, holding up something strange and unknown, aimed at the Wako.

Death is like home!

Such courage, which soldier can not admire.

Even the most timid and cowardly people have a heroic dream in their hearts.

I also admire those heroes who are not afraid of death.

And the soldiers of the New Army, at this moment, are undoubtedly heroes.

Below, the Woko had rushed to the front of the ranks of the New Army.

Thirty steps!

They saw bayonets in front of the guns of the soldiers of the Forces nouvelles.

Bright, bright and shining.

But in the eyes of the Japanese Kou, there is something ridiculous.

This is too short compared to a spear, what combat power can it have?

Twenty steps!

All it takes is a charge, and it's in front of you.

The soldiers of the Forces nouvelles still stood there, motionless as mountains.

The guns were raised in full arm, aiming at the front.

Since the opponent doesn't even shoot arrows, he charges with a knife, so let them get closer.

Seven steps away, the gun is fast.

Within seven steps, the gun was accurate and fast.

Now, it's only twenty paces away.

The pirates are even crazier.

In their opinion, these people have been frightened, and they are neither willing to flee nor able to resist!

It must be.

The pirates had never seen a gun, and in this era there were only firearms.

In their eyes, the uniform movements of the soldiers of the New Army were extremely funny.

"Gah!"

"Gah!"

"Gah!"

The pirates screamed strangely, and in their opinion, they were about to have a feast of slaughter.

The Japanese invaders seemed to have seen the screams of the Ming soldiers, and saw their heads cut off by themselves, their limbs slashed, their stomachs disemboweled, and blood splashed, and they were even more excited because of this.

With a hideous face and a distorted expression, he no longer resembles a human being.

Ten steps.

"Shoot!"

Zheng He shouted.

"Bang!" A deafening gunshot raised the already noisy battlefield to a new volume level.

The next moment.

When the pirates hadn't come to their senses.

Almost right between the lightning flints.

The soldiers of the Forces nouvelles opened fire.

"Bang ......"

Hundreds of guns, firing at the same time.

Bullets roared out, singing a song of killing!
