This time the two armies have given the highest attention, Jiannu has suffered the loss of the cannon of the large Chinese army before, so this time when the artillery was erected, did not dare to place the cannon too far forward, so the large Chinese army wanted to directly suppress the opponent's artillery array, it was unlikely, so the artillery bombardment of both sides was concentrated on the infantry army in front of the other party, and the whole was to test the psychological quality of the opponent's infantry army, the artillery fire was like a leather whip, and the opponent's infantry army was whipped fiercely, and it was obvious that the quality of the soldiers of the large Chinese army was much more than that of Jiannu.

These hundreds of steps, for the Han soldiers of the Wuzhen Chaoha battalion under the command of King Sanshun, it is simply a nightmare, the shells of the large Chinese army seem to have eyes, repeatedly working among their crowd, just more than a hundred steps away, it killed and injured at least three or four hundred people of the Jiannu army, don't underestimate this number, in this era, in the era of artillery dominated by solid shells, dozens of cannons, several salvos at a long distance, can kill and injure so many people, it is already very valuable, Even if the large Chinese army used the most advanced flowering shell of this era, it was not successful, the flowering shell of the twelve-pounder gun was only filled with less than two catties of black powder, not to mention the high rate of blind fire, and it was very dangerous when used, even if it was successfully detonated, the explosive power of such black powder was very limited, and the number of shrapnel exploded may not even exceed how much grenades in later generations, so don't look at the excitement of the fight, but in the long-distance shelling, you want to kill and injure the enemy in large numbers, Basically something unlikely.

And Jiannu's heavy artillery looks very powerful, but all of them use solid bullets, and the casualties caused to the Dazhong Army are much lower, don't look at the excitement of the fight, the number of soldiers and generals lost by the Dazhong Army has not even reached three digits, and more often the artillery bombardment on the battlefield has a psychological deterrent effect that exceeds their actual lethality.

But even so, it also put Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, and Shang Kexi under a lot of pressure on the three big traitors, if it weren't for their desperate bombing and suppressing their subordinates, they wouldn't have waited for them to go to a place where they could engage in a head-on exchange with the Dazhong Army, and their subordinates would have been blown up by the Dazhong Army.

"A hundred pace......s away," an officer shouted to Luo Li, reporting the distance between the enemy and them.

Luo Li raised his eyebrows, and after listening to it, he was unmoved, but continued to oversee the army to move forward, and after entering the distance of a hundred steps, the generals on both sides felt the huge pressure on the face, because within a hundred steps, they could already see each other's faces clearly, although the faces of both of them were the same, but at this time, no one thought that the opposite was their friend.

Even they could see the weapons in each other's hands clearly, so everyone began to nervous involuntarily.

The big Chinese army is at the forefront of their firecrackers, this duel, it is obvious that the Jiannu side, want to follow their big middle army's side of the tactics, firearms against firearms, want to compete with the big Chinese army, then the first to bear the brunt is the firecrackers, so under Luo Li's dispatch, all the battalion firecrackers under his command have been transferred to the front of the queue, and these firecrackers are now wearing a standard Dazhong army cuirass, with an eight-petal iron helmet painted with black paint on their heads, Each of them carried on their shoulders a twelve-millimeter flintlock musket with a shoulder rest, which they maintained, and on their right side they had a waterproof covered cowhide box with a packed cardboard shell, which had already eliminated the cumbersome arquebus, and on the left side of their waist hung a bayonet with a leather sheath, which could be drawn and stuck at the front of the flintlock pistol at any time, so that they had the most basic ability of hand-to-hand combat, and in addition to that, they carried a rucksack behind their backs, They were wrapped in a blanket and a pack of thirty spare rounds of paper shells in their backpacks, making them look very smart.

At this time, the knife players in the large army infantry army has been very small, less than one percent, and these knife players at this time, their responsibilities have also changed a lot, in addition to continuing to equip their single knife and rattan cards, each of them at this time also carries a cloth bag, which contains two or three thunderbolts, each person is equipped with a copper pipe equipped with a fire fold, basically their function has been transformed into a grenadier, knife player training, Now in addition to training hand-to-hand combat, there is also a throwing training, after all, at the moment their thunderbolt cannon still seems a little too heavy, ordinary people without a large amount of training, can not throw far, but this group of knife players, through the daily non-stop bomb throwing training, can already throw the heavy thunderbolt cannon twenty steps away, so their existence, can be said to be another killer weapon of the big Chinese army, no matter who it is, they are not less at the loss of their hands.

As for the pikemen, they are very depressed now, they are all temporarily placed at the back of the queue, since the gunners have fully popularized the bayonet, their importance has begun to decrease, under normal circumstances, there are few opportunities to fight, the gunners are basically about to replace their role, but the pikemen in this era have their own advantages, especially when forming a formation to deal with the enemy cavalry, they can not be completely replaced, so the large army still retains their establishment for the time being, Whether it is their turn to go into battle today, these pikemen are not very sure in their hearts, so many pikemen have begun to ask the officers and also change to the gunners, in that case, they will have a lot more opportunities to win the battle merits.

The officer in charge of observing the distance of the enemy troops in the "Seventy ......Paces" once again reported the distance of the enemy troops to Luo Li.

"Stop moving! Prepare for the firecracker! After Luo Li heard it, he finally gave the order this time.

The trumpeters who followed Luo Li immediately raised the brass trumpet, and hurriedly blew two long and two short trumpets, and the drummers at the front of the queue immediately struck three rapid drum beats in a row when they heard the trumpet, and they themselves immediately stopped advancing, and their right feet fell heavily to the ground.

As the drummer's drum beat stopped, all the people in the entire queue of the Great Chinese Army immediately stopped advancing after three steps in place, their stopping movements were uniform, without a trace of distraction, everyone's footsteps were like a person's sound, and the battlefield was suddenly much quieter.

The officer in charge of commanding the firecrackers immediately drew his waist knife and shouted in a loud voice: "Bow down!" Start loading! ”

After receiving this order, all the musketeers immediately put down the flintlock pistol they were carrying on their shoulders with a bang, and the shoulder pestle was on the ground, and no one was talking nonsense, and immediately took out the paper shell bullet from the leather box on their waists, and began their first reload in the sound of the soo, and in a short time, they drew their canes from under the barrel, inserted them into the chamber, and pounded the ammunition hard......

After completing the loading, all the musketeers raised their guns with their hands upright, as a sign that they had completed loading, and at this time, as soon as the Jiannu army on the opposite side saw that the Dazhong army had stopped advancing, and this distance had also entered the distance that their bird guns could reach, so the generals of the Wuzhen Chaoha battalion of Jiannu also roared loudly, causing the slave soldiers under their command to also stop advancing.

However, compared with the neat formation of the Dazhong Army, their formation is much more pitiful, although under the vigorous scolding and adjustment of the generals, their front row queue is still bent like an earthworm, and the angry slave generals shout and shout, re-organizing the team, and want to be at least not weaker than the Dazhong Army in terms of momentum.

All the slave soldiers' firecrackers also followed the example of the Great Chinese Army and were arranged to the front of the front, these slave soldiers were a little pale, under the order of the generals, they also began to be busy loading, they knew very well that at this distance, the projectiles fired by the opponent's bird guns could already cause them a lot of damage, so unlike the usual exercises, they began to be nervous at this time, busy charging and loading, the result will inevitably make mistakes in the busy, either the gunpowder is less or the more is loaded, But the firecracker didn't notice it, and was busy reloading.

Compared with the flintlock pistols of the Dazhong Army, although Jiannu has tried his best to collect a lot of bird guns in the past two years, and ordered the Han craftsmen outside the customs to build a batch for them, the quality of their bird guns is really ...... Alas! Can't mention, they from the Ming army or the arsenal in the city captured the bird guns, even the Ming army is not willing to use, it shows how the quality is, although they have recently built a batch of bird guns, the supervision is very strict, but after all, most of the craftsmen are in a hurry, and it is impossible to create a good bird guns, so the king of Sanshun himself actually knows very well what the guys in their hands are, but now their masters let them do it, and they can only bite the bullet.

This battle of Shanhaiguan is the first time that the Dazhong Army has faced an enemy army with similar tactics and equipment to them, and it is also the first duel between muskets on this land, so both armies are a little nervous, but relatively speaking, the situation on the side of the Dazhong Army is much better, after all, when they were training, Xiao Tianjian was the first to send a group of people to stand in front of the firecrackers, and kept throwing stones at them, and at the same time ordered the firecrackers to brave the stones that fell like raindrops, and to complete the loading. If anyone fails to complete the action because of the stone falling on the head and face, the ass will be hit with a military stick, that kind of training method, so that the firecrackers can be said to be miserable, but the effect is very significant, greatly exercise their psychological quality in danger, so they can be in many times, in the face of the enemy's crossbowmen or shelling, but also in an orderly and stable loading and firing, this training method has been regarded as a tradition by the large Chinese army, The natural psychological quality of the trained firecrackers is far greater than that of Jiannu's firecrackers.

Although the Jiannu Army, which was a toddler in Handan, also formed a large number of Wuzhen Chaoha battalions equipped with bird guns, their Han soldiers had never experienced such training, and when they faced the Dazhong Army today, these Jiannu soldiers were a little panicked.

Moreover, the bird guns they use are still arquebuses, and after each loading and firing, they have to light the arquebus, and they have to stick the arquebuses on the dragon's head, and carefully blow the arquebus, so that the arquebuses cannot be extinguished.

So when the Dazhong Army finished loading, the firecrackers of Jiannu were still a while away from completing the launch preparations, and after Luo Li saw the performance of the slave soldiers on the other side, he immediately showed a smirk full of contempt, and shouted: "Fuck it!" ”
