"Bang bang bang" Plumes of light blue gunpowder smoke rose from the stragglers of the Qiongzhou Army squatting on the ground. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Yes, it's a light blue smoke instead of a thick white smoke.

The treated cotton is soaked in a mixture of sulfur and nitrate in a certain proportion, taken out and dried, ground into powder, mixed with passivation, and then added to nitrate, plasticized, and then made into a long cylindrical shape, and then cut, it is a new type of bi-base propellant.

The bullet uses a new type of propellant, and the barrel of the new rifled gun is thickened and lengthened, which can withstand higher chamber pressure, making the range of this rifled gun reach an astonishing more than 1,000 steps!

With a volley of gunfire, one hundred and twenty stragglers and twenty sharpshooters opened fire at the same time, and in the blink of an eye, a large number of Qing soldiers more than two hundred paces away fell.

Sharpshooter Chen Wei knelt on one knee, half-squatted on the ground, and took out a paper bullet case from the bullet box on his waist to order a mini bullet, this bullet is a sniper-specific bullet, and the shell is wrapped with a layer of silk to reduce the reloading time. Chen Wei bit the paper skin at the bottom of the bullet case, then stuffed the bullet through the muzzle, removed the whole strip, and easily pressed the bullet to the end. Then push out the throughbar, put the throughstrip in the groove under the barrel, then turn the gun, open the primer cap, take out the sharp-spout primer pot from the waist, squeeze it on the medicine pool, and squeeze the black huo medicine powder into the primer pool.

For an experienced sharpshooter, the time to reload is very short, only ten seconds before and after the reload of bullets.

Chen Wei was very satisfied with the new rifled gun in his hand, although this gun was a little heavier, but the range was long and powerful, and the use of new gunpowder, there was almost no residue left in the barrel, and the gunsmoke after the gun was fired was not so thick, which did not affect the field of vision. The rifled gun also had a monocular, which was actually a scope, which could shoot at a target five hundred paces away.

After completing the loading, Chen Wei picked up the new Mini rifled gun in his hand, which should actually be called a sniper rifle, and aimed at a guy wearing thick armor who looked like an officer. Chen Wei put the guy in the scope, secretly estimated it in his heart, and moved the muzzle of the gun to the front of the Qing officer some distance according to the amount of aiming advance. Then Chen Wei pulled the trigger hard, and the bolt drove the linkage device to open the medicine pool, and then the hammer rebounded under the action of the spring, and hit the medicine pool heavily.

Only a deafening gunshot was heard, and a little white smoke rose from the primer, and then the propellant was ignited, and a tongue of fire erupted from the muzzle, and a faint blue smoke came out of the muzzle.

The Qing officer three hundred paces away was charging with his soldiers, and the bullet fired by Chen Wei just hit the charging Qing officer, and the bullet spun and pierced through his forehead, with a blood line out of the back of his head. The Qing officer didn't even snort, and fell backwards on his back.

The stragglers and sharpshooters who had completed their reloading opened fire one after another, the gunfire was incessant, the blue smoke filled the air, and the charging Qing soldiers fell one after another like harvested rice.

Wang Ying, who was pressing the formation behind, was terrified: "Isn't Minggou's magic weapon very slow to reload?" How can you fight so fast? Doesn't it stand to reason that you can only shoot once a minute? How is it so fast? Can you hit one shot in ten breaths? ”

Some high-ranking generals of the Qing army knew that rifled guns were very difficult to load, and the firing speed was much slower than that of smoothbore guns, and the shotgun fired four to six rounds, and the rifled gun could only complete one round of firing. But today, the stragglers on the opposite side fired at an astonishingly fast rate, and some of them fired faster than their smoothbore guns.

However, one round of shooting also knocked down dozens of Qing soldiers, only more than 30 people at the time, only more than 60 people at most, and the Mini rifle could only fire six rounds in one minute. With a distance of less than three hundred paces, the Qing soldiers could rush up in two minutes.

Wang [auxiliary] asked his soldiers to pass the order: "Put down the shield cart and evacuate the railway soldiers!" ”

The railroad soldiers pushing the shield cart dropped the shield cart one after another, turned around and retreated. Then the line of infantry came up, stretched out the barrel of their guns behind the neatly arranged shield carts, and aimed at the Qing soldiers who were about to rush in front of them.

The artillery of the Qiongzhou army continued to fire, and there were constantly casualties and flowering shells falling in the crowd of Qing troops, exploding bursts of blood and flesh.

"Change the shrapnel!" Gong Xiaoda roared.

"Change the shrapnel!" Artillery officers of all levels waved small flags and gave signals.

The gunners cleaned the chambers, loaded the new shrapnel into the muzzle, and then turned the muzzle and aimed it at the crowd of Qing soldiers 150 paces away, either lighting the fuse on the fire door or pulling the firing rope.

Rows of cannon muzzles spewed fire, grenade shotguns flew out of the muzzles, and after flying more than a hundred steps, they burst out in mid-air, and countless iron beads swept over the charging Qing army crowd like a torrential rain, and suddenly screamed again and again, and countless Qing soldiers were beaten into a sieve. Some of the Qing soldiers covered their stomachs and tried to stuff the intestines back out, but their whole bodies had lost their strength, and after rushing a few more steps, they fell headlong in front of the position.

"Seventy steps!" Line Formation Infantry Officers Estimate Distances with Visual Measurements.

"Sixty steps, put!" The officer yelled.

"Put!" Small flags in the hands of junior officers at all levels waved.

Behind the shield cart, rows of muskets spewed fire, and bullets rained down on the Qing soldiers sixty paces away. The volley of guns fired, and the Qing soldiers who rushed up were like peeled onions, one in front fell, and another in the back.

The muskets and bows and arrows in the hands of the Qing soldiers also launched a counterattack, and the bullets and feathered arrows came and penetrated into the Ming formation. However, the Ming army was protected by a shield cart in front, and he was still wearing a very defensive rattan armor with a silk lining, and the Qing army's counterattack did not cause much loss to the Ming army.

The musketeers, who had completed a round of shooting, held the gun in his left hand, put it on the ground, and with his right hand, pulled the grenade from his waist, pulled the string, and threw it one after another.

At this time, the distance between the Qing soldiers was only forty paces, and if the Ming musketeers reloaded, the time was too short. If the method of three-stage fire can ensure continuous shooting, but the musket is not as powerful as the grenade, so the tactics of the Ming army musketeers are to shoot with a row of guns first, and then throw grenades.

Countless grenades flew over in a whirlwind and landed in the crowd of Qing soldiers.

"Not good! Minggou's palm thunder is here again! ”

Seeing the grenades flying over, the Qing soldiers shouted, and some people turned their heads and ran away. But the Qing soldiers who turned their heads and ran didn't run a few steps before they were cut off by the overseers behind them.

Smoke-emitting grenades fell in the crowd of Qing soldiers, explosions sounded repeatedly, and pieces of Qing soldiers fell.

The remaining Qing soldiers finally rushed to the front, and at this moment, the shield carts of the Ming army were lifted one after another, and rows of bayonets flashing with cold light stretched out from behind the shield carts, knocking over the Qing soldiers who rushed to the front one after another.
