Chapter 76: Battle Formation (First Update, Asking for Support)

"Annan is here! Get ready! ”

Although he speaks an official dialect that is not fluent, it does not prevent Liu Han from calling the Annan people "barbarian", in fact, a few years ago, he was also a "barbarian", but he has long been "naturalized" as a Han Chinese, when the King of Jin was in Burma, he was already in the army, and even gave himself a Han name three years ago - Zhang Han, surnamed Liu Minghan, Liu is the national surname of the Han Dynasty, and Han is Han.

In fact, many people in the army chose the surname Liu, Li or Zhao, these surnames are basically the surnames of the Han people, and they all correspond to the dynasty of the Han people.

Even if the surname Zhu is a national surname, it does not prevent some shrewd people from finding a tone similar to the pronunciation of "Zhu" in their own name or among their fathers and relatives who are beating around the corner, and then say that it is his surname, so it is logical to have a national surname.

Seeing that someone in the horizontal team did not stand up, Liu Han immediately shouted loudly.

"Zhu Chen, stand still!"

Zhu Chen is also the "mountain barbarian" of the deep mountain tribe in northern Myanmar, in fact, among the Jin army, there are more than 20,000 mountain barbarians levied from various Tusi at the most, and later, most of them settled in Guangdong, even now, there are four or five thousand Han people naturalized from the mountain barbarians.

Although they gave themselves a Han name, there is still a big gap between them and the Han people in terms of personality, just like Zhu Chen, who is at the forefront of the queue at the moment, his heart is constantly beating the drum. He is one of the four squad leaders in the team, although he was a strong man pulled by the Jin army back then, but now, he has long regarded himself as a Han person, as a person from the Celestial Empire, and he can be said to look down on the barbarians.

The people under the rule of Tusi outside Yunnan have always been fierce. Even ordinary people mostly traveled through the mountains and forests since childhood, slash-and-burn farming, and fought with wild beasts, so their temperament can be regarded as "quite barbaric". Therefore, he had already made up his mind to kill a few more Annan soldiers.

But for some reason, this time when I went to the battlefield with a firecracker, I suddenly became a little nervous. Seeing that the Vietnamese army on the opposite side had already rushed over, he even involuntarily took half a step forward, and then he was reprimanded.

Why are you nervous?

Is it scared?

Of course not, even when he encountered a tiger in the mountains in the past, he didn't know to be afraid, let alone these vulnerable Annanban?

"Look at them, when they rush over, they are like a herd of pigs."

Just then, a veteran beside him sneered.

"Eh, they're wild monkeys in the mountains and forests, and they're used to this kind of play. I really think that with a sword in my hand, I will show them what a soldier is, brothers! ”

What is Bing?

What is Military?

Discipline, according to the rules of the Ming army, even under the rain of bullets, must not move like a loose, even if the thousands of arrows in front of you pierce the heart, you must move forward with the beat of the drum, and there must be no hesitation.

Taking a deep breath, Zhu Chen, who had finally come back to his soul, saw that several recruits on the side seemed to be a little nervous, and immediately reminded.

"Don't be afraid, it's nothing more than letting go of the guns and stabbing hard, if you dare to flee back, beware of the ghost head knife of the warlord!"

After being reminded by Xu Chen, the two recruits remembered that there was a supervising team behind them, even if it was a loyal army, there was also a supervising team, after all, sometimes, the fear of military law was worse than death, and death must be threatened, but compared to the Ming army, which was different from the military supervision team, the Jin army has always had a full-time supervision team.

"Kill, kill!"

Ding Wen, who led the forward, was holding a long knife in his left hand, wearing Western chest armor on his body, his eyes were staring at the line of the Ming army, and his eyes burst out with flames that were not cowardly.

He is not afraid of the Northern Dynasty soldiers, and even longs to tear up with the Northern Dynasty, in his opinion, the current Northern Dynasty is no longer as strong as yesterday, even the Qing Dynasty can almost seize their world, if this battle can defeat them, maybe you can persuade the king to go north to "crusade against the Northern Dynasty".

Perhaps, when the time comes, Dayue can even take the two Guang as already owned, and divide the world with the Northern Dynasties! Just like the Jin and Song dynasties during the Song Dynasty, Da Yue and the Northern Dynasties were established as brother states.

Everyone has their own fantasies, and when Ding Wenzuo had such fantasies in his heart, he didn't take into account the Ming army on the other side at all.

"Kill it, the Ming army is all firearms, and you can only fire three guns at most! Rush up and kill all the Beikou! ”

Although they had been in contact with firearms for a long time, whether it was Dinh Van Zuo or other Vietnamese generals, they rejected firearms, and in their opinion, those firearms that could not be used when it rained were simply waste.

Maybe it's sunny today, but ...... The rate of fire of the firebolt is very slow, and it is not as good as a bow and arrow!

Tens of thousands of Vietnamese troops, howling chaotically towards the Ming army queue launched a charge, at the same time as their charge, dozens of war elephants are located in the middle of the ranks at the back of the position, the war elephant is precious, although it can be used to charge, but also pay attention to a timing, and in front of the war elephant, are thousands of archers with bows and arrows. They will release arrows at a distance of about 30 zhang, and after their arrow rain falls, the infantry in front of them will rush into the ranks of the Ming army and slash and slash them, once the Ming army's battle line is in chaos, at this time, the war elephants can be thrown in.

For the past few hundred years, the people of Annam have been fighting like this.

It's just that at that time, their opponents were often the "barbarians" of Nanyang. And now they are facing the same opponent they faced two hundred and sixty years ago - the Ming army.

"Ready!"

Facing the approaching Vietnamese army, Zhang Han once again issued an order to prepare, his right hand held the command knife, the knife rested on his shoulder, and he was not worried about the Vietnamese army rushing over like a swarm.

But it's just a headshot!

When the Vietnamese army entered the distance of 150 fathoms, Zhang Han heard the order of the squadron leader.

"Gun on the shoulder!"

Following the squad leader's order, Zhu Chen, while repeating the order, raised the firearm with his comrades and put the butt of the firearm against his shoulder. At a distance of 500 fathoms, they had already completed the reload when they formed a team for the first time.

"Ready!"

Again, when the squad leader's roar reached his ears, Zhu Chen's right thumb pressed the flint hammer and pulled it back hard, and then began to aim at the enemy who rushed up.

The smoothbore gun is different from the rifled gun, the rifled gun has a ruler, and the smoothbore gun with the end of the range does not, there is only a front sight and a rear door, and you can shoot at the enemy at three points and one line.

At this time, the Vietnamese troops on the opposite side were already shouting and rushing closer and closer. Zhu Chen could even clearly see the faces of those Annan barbarians, their faces may be smeared with pot ashes and other things, black and mushy, looking at that appearance, it may be frightening, but the thin body makes people doubt whether they can charge into battle.

Vaguely, Zhu Chen only felt like a group of lions rushing over.

It's just a bunch of brutes!

At this moment, as the command knife in the captain's hand pointed sharply forward, his mouth issued a command.

"Fire!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhu Chen, who was already aiming at the enemy, pulled the trigger while squinting his eyes, this was to prevent the gunpowder smoke flying out of the medicine pool from hurting his eyes.

In an instant, with a dull thud, their front was obscured by white gunpowder smoke, and the choking smoke made them unable to even open their eyes, and after the first row of fire, the second row followed suit, and then the third row......

The smoke of gunpowder instantly filled the entire battlefield.

Take out the paper-wrapped bullet from the bullet case on your waist, bite through one end of the paper pack, load a small amount of gunpowder into the cartridge, cover the cartridge, pour the gunpowder into the barrel, stuff the paper and the projectile into the barrel, and then compact it with a strip......

After completing the reloading, when the gun was raised again, the smoke had dissipated a little, and through the smoke, Zhu Chen could see that there were many Vietnamese soldiers lying in the open space a hundred steps away.

Some of the Annan soldiers who had been howling and rushing over were already dead, and some were wounded and fell in the paddy fields, moaning loudly and repeatedly, and the blood in the paddy fields was even dyed red. And that group of monkeys, this will be completely lost from the unstoppable posture just now.

Not only were ordinary Annan soldiers blinded by this rain of bullets, but Ding Wenzuo was also blinded, and when that burst of smoke gushed out, he didn't feel any threat, but when his chest was hit hard like a heavy hammer, he realized the horror of the firecracker.

Looking down at his chest, there was a deep pit on the armor worth a hundred taels, and he was almost knocked down, only then did he feel the threat of death, if it wasn't for the armor blocking the bullet, maybe he would have lost his life now.

On the battlefield, life and death are often just a matter of a moment, and even many people have lost their lives without even reacting.

When hundreds of Annan soldiers fell in front, more Annan soldiers still rushed forward, they didn't even know what was happening in front of them, they just relied on instinct to charge forward, when the Annan soldiers who rushed in front saw the corpses on the ground, they didn't want to stop, the people rushing from the rear had already crowded them and continued to rush, and at this time, the Ming army's firearms sang again......

The smoke spit out from the gun tube continued to form a white smoke on the battlefield, enveloping the entire battlefield, enveloping the Ming army's line array, but despite this, the bullets spit out from the smoke seemed to be still taking the lives of the Vietnamese army, but those Vietnamese soldiers were still desperate to howl and charge forward, after all, death on the battlefield was never inevitable.
