Immediately, the infantry of the Dragon Guard Army shouted in unison: "Release!" ”

But their voices were drowned out by the roar of the Chasseur's Guns.

At this time, only forty or fifty of the southernmost chariots remained, and more than 6,000 Mini bullets instantly penetrated into the battle formation of the Qing army.

Although they were more than a hundred paces apart, the high-speed spinning bullet easily broke through the cotton armor of the Jianyu foot soldiers, and then passed through their bodies, and a large piece of flesh and blood leaked out of their backs.

Even though the spearmen of Jianyu wore scale armor over the cotton armor, they still could not resist the terrifying power of the rifled guns. Although the lethality of the bullet was reduced by 80% after piercing the scale armor and cotton armor, the remaining momentum was enough to kill the captive.

It was the first time that the rifled gun had been used on such a large scale on the battlefield, and even the Dragon Guards themselves were taken aback by their power - this salvo killed at least one hundred captives!

In the middle of the mighty Jianyu infantry battle array, a "depression" nearly two miles long suddenly appeared, and the recessed part was filled with corpses and blood, straight into the blood pool purgatory.

Even the murderous Jianzhou captives couldn't help but be frightened when they saw this.

They have seen fierce enemies, and they have also experienced tens of thousands of deaths, but as soon as the enemy's fire gun sounded, the people in the front row on their side were neatly "wiped out". Suddenly, almost all of the Jianyu soldiers had a general thought in their hearts - where is this war, it is simply the king of Hades asking for his life!

Because the Jianyu had previously believed that their heavy firearms had a longer range than the Ming army, they were extremely nervous at this time, and a large number of soldiers immediately raised their guns to fight back. Of course, the flintlock guns in their hands were almost negligible at a distance of more than a hundred paces.

Babutai saw that the Ming army was so far away and opened fire, and his heart was full of thought that it was still the old problem of the Ming army's indiscriminate firecracks. He was about to start mocking, but when he turned his head, he saw countless dead and wounded among his men, and he was immediately speechless in shock.

Due to the fact that a large number of Qing army vehicles were destroyed before, their wreckage blocked the way of the Qing army's advance, which made the formation begin to be messy. At this time, some of the captives stood in place in panic, and some were so frightened that they stopped moving, but more than half of them continued to move forward according to the military order, and the entire infantry battle formation suddenly became a mess.

However, the Dragon Guards were unceremonious, and completed the reload with their hands and feet, followed by another volley. The captives on the opposite side had just walked out more than ten zhang with trepidation, but immediately the rainstorm of Mini bullets swept away thousands of people! Among the captives who walked in the front, some of them were lucky not to be hit, and it was difficult to hide the fear in their hearts, so they immediately shouted and turned around and fled.

Babutai, who was supervising the battle behind the battle, had a gloomy face, and hurriedly ordered the Bayala guards beside him to step forward and suppress it. When he turned his head, he saw that the Ming army seemed to have the strongest firepower only in the middle section, and the formation on both sides of him was barely neat, so he hurriedly ordered the two wings to speed up the engagement with the enemy.

The infantry line on both sides of the Dragon Guard was mainly composed of more than 12,000 soldiers of the Broken Battalion, most of whom still used flintlock guns, and only had more than 3,000 rifled guns.

In order to maintain the unity of firepower, Zhu Linmiao, Zhen Zhen and others discussed, and decided to use all these 3,000 people as chasers.

Therefore, although the two wings of the Ming army were not as powerful as the salvo of the Dragon Guard in the middle section, they had not been idle. The soldiers with Type 2 Chasseur guns were all in the last row of the line, constantly "sniping" the enemy troops, and a little here and there, but they also killed as many as five or six hundred people, and most of them were officers in eye-catching clothes.

The phalanx, which had remained unorganized, could no longer care about the formation under the urging of Babutai, and ran twenty or thirty paces, and inserted the chest-high short spears into the ground, and then put the pipes of the heavy flintlock guns at the fork of the tail of the short spears.

It's just that they were in the process of preparing in a hurry, and the soldiers of the broken battalion on the opposite side opened fire first with their dexterous six-coin guns. Nearly 10,000 flintlock guns roared in an instant, and the captives who had just begun to aim suddenly staggered, and hundreds of gunners and spearmen in the front row drank bullets and died.

The experience and training level of these Jianzhou soldiers were not low, and they were still able to reluctantly follow the officers' orders in such a chaotic situation. Soon, a large area of gunpowder smoke rose from the Qing army positions on both sides of the battle array, and many soldiers from the broken camp immediately fell to the ground with a muffled sound.

However, nearly half of the spearmen in the Qing army's formation were mixed, and their combat effectiveness in the confrontation was zero.

On the other hand, the Ming army, although the absolute number is small, but the number of firearms is more than 30% more than that of Jianyu, coupled with the terrifying firepower intensity of a large number of rifled guns, it is completely overwhelming to shoot with firearms.

However, there were still 25,600 people in the battle formation, and it would take a process to defeat them at once, so that more and more of the unkilled captives in the back row began to fire back under the strict orders of the officers.

In this way, the battle formations of both sides began to fire at each other at a distance of sixty or seventy paces, and each of them continued to be shot and fell, while the living people still gritted their teeth and repeated the process of loading, aiming, and shooting until they were also hit or defeated by their opponents.

It is not unreasonable that this cruel way of fighting was called "lining up to shoot" by later generations, and the comparison is who has stronger firepower and whose will to fight is firmer, and the first to waver will be defeated!

However, after seven or eight rounds of shooting, some people in the Qing army began to jump and scold their mothers - the fire guns in their hands were stuck!

The sky-high price of spring steel sold by Zhu Linmiao to Cai Shiying began to take effect. These so-called "steels" were originally brittle and hard high-carbon steels, but they were mixed with sulfur to make them more and more brittle, and after continuous repeated bending, metal fatigue finally occurred and broke on the spot.

In fact, this situation occurred as early as when Lekdehun's department and the Shandong Righteous Army were fighting, but the intensity of that battle was too low, and only twenty or thirty guns had problems, and Lekdehun was only an isolated phenomenon.

At present, the armies of the two sides are firing at extremely high speeds, and the situation of broken springs has begun to appear in a large area. Once the flintlock spring's spring breaks, it can't burst into flames, and the gun can only stare dryly.

At the same time, sounds such as "the gun is stuck", "it seems that the reed is broken", and "my gun can't be used" continued to appear in the Qing army's formation, so that the captives who could still use the fire gun also began to doubt their weapons. Immediately, in order to "test" whether the fire hammer is in good condition, many people specially pulled the hammer repeatedly to test it, but the spring that could still be used several times was broken in advance.

"Damn! Lao Tzu is also broken! ”

"There's really something wrong with the guns!"

"What a!"

As more and more scolding was raised, more and more Qing army gunners also subconsciously joined the ranks of "inspection...... Reading a book and finding the latest chapters by yourself? You're out, WeChat attention Beauty editor helps you find books! It's really a good book to flirt with girls!
