At the moment when the enemy suddenly fled, the commander of the second company made a quick decision and led the team to attack.

However, this time, the commander of the second company miscalculated, just as he led his men over the earthen ramparts in front of the trench and rushed towards the enemy's heavy artillery.

A flag set up on a hillside in the distance began to shake in the distance.

And when the second company crossed the barbed wire fence and quickly rushed towards the Houjin heavy artillery that remained in place, the flag on the hillside waved violently and disappeared on the hill.

At this time, some of the men and horses among the Houjin Tartars who had already retreated suddenly came back with a horse gun, and dozens of cavalry beat their horses and galloped wildly.

The war horse neighed and jumped up with iron hooves, and quickly trampled in the team of fleeing Goryeo guns, and the knights on the horse also brandished scimitars, slashing the gathered Koreans who stood in the way.

In less than five seconds, this group of cavalry rushed out of the enemy army with a road that was enough for horses to gallop.

The shock happened too suddenly, and the cavalry rushed towards the second company, but they did not rush directly, but relied on the old skills of the Mongols, and turned quickly at a distance of 30 meters from the second company.

At the turn, on the horse, the bow was raised to the sky like a full moon, and the arrows with rusty lines after soaking in dung water gave birth to a dangerous light in some of the slippery places that occasionally appeared.

Just when he found out that the cavalry was coming back, the second company commander knew that something was wrong, and he roared in a hoarse voice, "Bow and arrow, cover." ”

More than 50 warriors and officers immediately dispersed, each looking for a place to defend as cover.

It's just a pity that they are now on the way to charge, and the camp has been cleared by them, and there is not enough cover at all.

In desperation, most of the soldiers of the second company could only use the posture of defending against bows and arrows that they learned on the training ground, that is, the kneeling position, to reduce the exposed area as much as possible.

If they are facing a musket, the soldiers will definitely lie on the ground and become a prostrate posture, after all, the projectile of the musket will not turn, as long as they lie on the ground, they can minimize the exposure area.

However, the second company commander shouted "bow and arrow" just now, and the situation was completely different.

Because of the bow and arrow's unique ability to shoot at a large angle, when facing this weapon, the prostrate is looking for death.

In the face of feathered arrows falling from the sky, lying on the ground, on the contrary, the area exposed to this weapon has greatly increased.

In the kneeling position, unless it is too unlucky, under normal circumstances, the feathered arrows thrown will hit the chest with the largest exposed mask, which happens to be the most heavily protected place for the Chinese military personnel.

Even if the more unlucky feather arrow comes straight at the front door, as long as the head is lowered, you can use a wide-rimmed helmet to reduce the damage.

It is precisely because of the strict training in peacetime that the soldiers can rely on the orders of the officers to make the right choice, so in the face of this round of surprise attacks by the enemy, the losses suffered by the second company are not too great.

At the same time that the enemy fired a round of feather arrows, the soldiers of the 1601st Battalion also fired at the Houjin Army, which used the tactics of returning the horse pistol.

It's just that the distance between the rear Jin cavalry and the rear position of the Huaxia Army is about 300 meters, and the large troops hiding in the rear, except for the special marksmen and the top marksmen who can ensure a certain accuracy, other ordinary soldiers can't cause damage to the fast-moving cavalry at this distance.

Faced with the pressure of the cavalry, they could only rely on the strength of the soldiers of the second company, who were about 30 meters away from the enemy.

In this kind of close-range shooting, whoever shoots quickly and accurately on both sides will have the upper hand.

The scientific and technological strength of the kingdom has once again been fully manifested, and the pump-action rifle has once again made meritorious contributions.

The time for the enemy to shoot an arrow is enough for the soldiers to fire two or three bullets.

In addition, most of the enemy's feathered arrows do not penetrate enough, and can be blocked by bulletproof steel plates and steel helmets.

The 18.5mm lead bullet used by the soldiers of the Second Company could not be defended by the poor armor of the Houjin Army.

After paying the exchange ratio of 3:25, taking advantage of the opportunity of the second reload and the rate of fire slowed down, the Houjin cavalry retreated directly.

In the distance, the large forces of the Houjin army had once again stabilized their positions.

Watching the rest of the cavalry gallop quickly into the defensive position that had already begun to be set up, the second company commander still didn't know that this retreat was a conspiracy of the enemy.

Otherwise, with this improvised post-Jin multi-ethnic mixed army, how could it be possible to quickly stabilize the morale of the army and rebuild the defense line without preparation.

Seeing that the Houjin army relied on the cannon and began to load the shotgun, the face of the second company commander turned green.

"Lie down." After the commander of the second company burst into a shout, a few hundred meters away from the opposite side, there was also a loud "boom", and hundreds of stones, iron nails and other things swept over the heads of the soldiers of the second company.

Several unlucky men of the second company were also shot in the limbs, and there were constant wailing, and the sanitary soldiers quickly stepped forward to stop the bleeding and bandage.

Although he wanted to rush up and kill the Tartars raised by the bitch, the commander of the second company knew that in the face of the heavy artillery and thousands of musketeers who were waiting for him, his 50 people had no chance at all.

Even if the entire 1601 battalion is on the same page, there is not the slightest possibility of victory.

The previous capture of Tower Hill, which was defended by more than 3,000 enemy troops, was taken by surprise, and the enemy army was unable to gather all its combat forces by surprise, and the scattered small enemy forces were powerless to fight back in the face of their own ferocious firepower.

However, once the enemy is on guard, the numerical disadvantage is not so easy to erase.

What's more, at the current distance, there is no way for your own side to pose a threat to the enemy's artillery, and the enemy's heavy artillery, as long as the angle is adjusted a few times, can definitely inflict a devastating blow on your own group of soldiers left in the open space.

Glancing hatefully at the artillery that was being cleared on the opposite side, the second company commander decisively gave the order, "Retreat, retreat quickly." ”

After giving the order, the commander of the second company quickly ran to the side of a wounded man, picked up the person and ran.

There is no need for superfluous words, everyone is already familiar with the battle, and the remaining soldiers, under the cover of Deputy Hu Lian and several sergeants, together with the remaining wounded, marched towards the position.

When he was about to cross the barbed wire, the commander of the second company took a look at the shield carts abandoned here and the improvised shields that needed to be carried by four or five people, and ordered again, "Destroy the shield cart for me, carry the shield back, and strengthen the bunker." ”

"Yes." The two soldiers of the squad directly under the company headquarters quickly took out a few flares, and when the large army carried the temporary huge shields made of logs, crossed the road specially set aside between the barbed wire, they immediately opened the insurance.

The two of them slammed the fuse of the flare into the hardwood, and placed their hands on the shield cart.

The violently burning magnesium and some other chemical mixtures, together emitted a strong fire, and after melting the shell of the grenade, the molten iron quickly ignited the shield cars, creating several huge torches in front of the barbed wire.
