Chapter 534: Three Thousand Broken Ten Thousand (II)

The horses roared as if they were being pushed in a row, and the fire suppressed the enemy to cause a brief commotion, delaying their reaction time.

In just an instant, the cavalry closed the distance again, and the distance of more than 100 meters was reduced to 100 meters in the blink of an eye.

At a distance of 100 meters, the first volley came as promised.

"Shoot!"

The whistle was accompanied by Wang Er's low shout, and all the cavalry changed their formations, and the original neat and orderly formation overlapped at different levels, and the queues of each row between the cavalry remained unchanged, but the front and rear two rows overlapped, so as to maximize the use of the window for shooting.

At the end of the first round of volleys, the front row of the enemy was already preparing for an effective counterattack, and even tongues of fire had been spat out in many places.

One machine gun is relatively light on its own, so it's easy to set it up and start firing.

However, in the face of the flaming machine guns, the cavalry in the front row was not afraid at all, and only numbly followed the large army to do the established mature movements.

Raise the gun and shoot at the plate.

The high-speed machine-gun bullets easily penetrated the military uniforms on the surface of the front row of cavalry, and even penetrated the cotton armor inside.

Fortunately, more bullets passed through the unloading force of the cotton armor, and there was no danger at the critical point of hitting, and they were blocked by the thick plate armor inside.

In those days, there were no polymers as body armor, but the principle of body armor was the same.

For example, there were once people who made a simple set of body armor out of books and tiles.

The defensive effect is still very amazing, and it is not a problem to block some small-caliber pistols, but in the face of large-caliber pistols, it is almost useless.

And now the cavalry wears this body, its protective effect is no worse than this simple body armor, and even because of the addition of protective iron plates, the protection is even stronger.

These are the batch that Lao Guo customized, not the early thin iron plates, and their thickness has come to a small finger thickness, which is 1 cm thick.

And in order to reduce the subsequent concussion trauma as much as possible, Zhao Ming also asked people to make another inlay behind the iron plate inlay when designing the cotton armor.

It is mainly used for inlaying waste books and soft cotton pads to reduce the concussive injuries caused by machine gun bullets.

This greatly increases the weight of the cotton armor, although the follow-up cotton armor has been improved, it is only 18 catties, and it is simply a set of cotton armor vests, mainly to strengthen the protection of the chest and abdomen.

But after adding thick books and strengthening the barbed wire inside, the weight still came to twenty-one catties.

But this is no burden for the cavalry whose physical fitness is very terrifying now.

Dadada! ~

The dense barrage swept by, and seven or eight cavalrymen still fell to the ground in response, because the bullet avoided the iron plate near the chest cavity and directly cut through the abdomen, leaving multiple wounds in the abdomen.

Even if there is a lack of steel plates in the abdomen for many times, it still can't block the machine gun bullets, if it's a spear of this year, the reinforced cotton armor can still block it.

Some brothers resisted the pain in their abdomen, but others were directly crushed by the bullet in the important part of the abdomen, and a few jolts on the horse's back, accelerating the blood flow, and only a few blows failed to resist a fall from the horse.

Wang Er bore the brunt of the attack and was also hit by bullets one after another.

The first shot was a spear, and it hit him in the left arm, because it was defenseless, and this one was solid.

I didn't do it anyway, but I guess I will have to use my left hand less for a while when I go back.

The second shot was machine-gun strafing, and the luck was really good, as it hit the chest and was blocked by the plate armor.

But this time Rao is Wang Er is physical strength is now strong, and it is also a burst of blood and energy, as if he was held by Zhao Ye with an elbow, and he almost didn't suck it up in one breath.

It was a heart-piercing pain, and the painful Wang Er's teeth were straight, but the cavalry had the habit of pulling the horse rope tightly with one hand, otherwise with just one shot, the person would lie backwards and fall.

"Shoot!"

The second round of salvo began again, this time Wang Er's voice was much quieter, it really hurt, but the whistle was still blown accurately.

After the messengers at all levels quickly passed through the cavalry formation, the error was only a second or two, and everyone drew their guns again.

Bang bang bang! ~

Dense gunfire rang out in a row, and the thick smoke of gunpowder was quickly swept by the galloping horses of the warhorses.

Two consecutive volleys, in fact, the Jin army's side has already been in chaos.

Compared with Zhao Ming's cherishment of the brothers below, Zhang Li did not have any special affairs for the soldiers below, and everyone did not talk about the habit of wearing armor.

It should be said that in recent years, there has been no body armor for soldiers in China, and the whole world is similar.

The body armor of this year is still a pile of iron materials, a heavy batch, and other factors such as unloading force have not been considered at all, blindly pursuing the thickness of armor, just like the tanks of this year.

Naturally, everyone felt that this thing was too heavy, and there was almost no other protective gear except for the steel helmet.

One after another, the soldiers of the Jin army began to be afraid.

"Shoot!"

Wang Er's expression remained unchanged, and he directly blew the third whistle, and the third round of salvos came as scheduled.

Bang bang bang!

The third round was closer, and this round of salvo directly killed a large number of people, more than a few hundred people were directly shot, and hundreds of people were injured.

"Shoot!"

However, before the Jin army's formation regained its composure, the fourth round of salvos struck again.

Bang bang bang!

The dense rain of bullets was closer, as if in line to be shot, and the Jin army of the brigade had just held their guns and fell headlong.

Many soldiers were even beaten by the fire from a distance, lying on the ground and unable to raise their heads at all.

But at this time, the cavalry was already less than forty meters away, almost close at hand, if they didn't stand up again, this group of Jin soldiers lying on their stomachs would be trampled into meat by the horses' hooves without dealing with it.

There were five rounds of salvos, and as the soldier who went back told Zhang Li, the situation had already been decided before the fight.

Seeing that the cavalry in front of him was in good order and attacking very quickly, some Jin army officers were also out of the way, while ordering the overseers to stop the rout of the army.

On the other hand, the cavalry battalion quickly gave up its baggage and began to pack up and charge towards Wang Er's department.

Their training was not as efficient and neat as that of the Chabei Combined Cavalry, so they simply gave up the salvo and drew their sabers one after another to prepare for a white-knuckle battle.

It is believed that with the numerical superiority of one's own infantry regiment, although the number of cavalry is not superior, the enemy will be defeated even if the casualties are too large.

Therefore, the cavalry of the Jin army can be regarded as unified, and launched a charge with a roar.

With the end of the last round of volleys, the Chabei Combined Cavalry had completed the sixth round of salvos at this time, almost reaching the highest level of firearms played by this cavalry.

"Slash!"

With the sound of the whistle, all the Chabei combined cavalry threw their spears into the skin pouches next to the horse's belly, and immediately pulled out their sabers smoothly, and their legs slammed into the horse's belly, and their body suddenly rose.

The waist pole was like a recurved bow on the horse's back, and the saber in his hand was like a sharp claw in the hand of a predator.

In the next moment, in the surprised gaze of all the Jin cavalry, the other party was clearly separated by a few meters from it, and as a result, the moment the opponent's saber fell, a sharp pain swept through the body.
