Chapter 420: Leg Punch
After hurriedly picking up the shield-wielding Jurchen who had fallen to the ground, and discovering that the shield had cracked, Laga immediately chuckled in his heart.
At such a distance, the shield wrapped in three layers of cowhide actually only blocked the opponent's lead bullet, and there was a crack, which is simply appalling.
Raga who was trembling in his heart immediately buried his head and pushed the raw girl to the front, while shouting, "Stand up and raise your shield." ”
Originally, the language communication was not very smooth, and when Laga spoke, he buried his head deep and his voice was not clear, and the raw girl really couldn't understand what Laga said again, so she just turned her head in surprise and looked at Laga in amazement.
Raga didn't have time to find an interpreter to help convey the order when he heard another violent roar on the other side.
At the same time, the young girl who was standing in front of him, who had not yet held the shield, tilted his head so violently that he fell to the ground before he could even scream.
Laga didn't react at all, and found that the biological girl had really had a big hole in her head from lead bullets.
A series of white and red things soon seeped out of the hole, staining the ground beneath his corpse.
Seeing this, Laga couldn't help but squat lower, and shook his head and sighed, "It's really a stupid hat." ”
Laga is really extremely distrustful of these raw Jurchen's brains now, but there is no way, after all, this group of Jurchen has not been in the Eight Banners for too long.
They had never met several Han army flag teams that used firearms in China, so they had never seen what a musket looked like, and they didn't know what a musket was.
Therefore, I don't know how strong the firearms in the hands of the Huaxia army on the opposite side can be.
In the opinion of Laga, who had seen the overwhelming "explosion attack" (artillery bombardment) of the Huaxia army, no matter how ferocious the melee combat ability of these Jurchens was, as long as the Huaxia army did not rush in front of them, it would be useless.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the Jurchens who are not fully civilized, cannot understand the orders of the officers, and have not yet been completely integrated into the Houjin combat system are not as good as an ordinary Houjin army remnant.
However, at this time, Laga is too late to go but unfortunately loses an adult male, and it is still important to save his life.
He hurriedly raised the cowhide shield in his hand, which could still block the lead bullets fired from the opponent's musketeer when he was a little away from the opponent's musketeer.
Now is not the time to cherish equipment, even if the cowhide shield in your hand is valuable and valuable, but it is better to be broken by lead bullet than to save the shield and lose your life.
The feathered arrows that are constantly firing at each other between the two sides are "whoosh, ······ Whoosh" in the air, non-stop flying back and forth.
At this moment, even a calm Jia La's true slowly began to become anxious, and the morale of the soldiers of the Eight Banners below was also greatly hit.
Laga had been carefully hiding behind the shield, listening to the constant sound of people being hit and the sound of the shield being inserted with feathered arrows, and the anxiety in his heart was indescribable.
Eventually, curiosity got the better of him, and he couldn't help himself, revealing his head a little from behind his shield.
He looked out, and saw that the shield array formed by the first few Huaxia troops was constantly advancing, approaching the river bank, and his own feather arrows had almost no damage to the opposite side.
Raga quickly wiped his sweaty and blood-stained palms on his body, and then grabbed the hilt of the sword with his right hand, waiting for the moment of hand-to-hand combat.
In the temporary commando team formed by the reconnaissance battalion of the Huaxia Army, the abductor was in the first row, and the thick shield in his hand gave him a certain sense of security.
The shields used in the Huaxia army are basically all wrapped in whale skin, and the defensive effect of this wrapping method is no worse than that of cowhide.
Moreover, because the methods of whaling in this era were still quite primitive, the population of whales was very objective, almost everywhere, and the acquisition of raw materials was countless times more economical than slaughtering precious cattle for skins.
There is almost no essential difference between the manufacturing management system used in the Huaxia Army and that used by the Ming Dynasty and the Later Jin.
It is also required that the names of the craftsmen, inspectors, custodians and users of each weapon and equipment be marked on it.
In the event of a quality problem, the responsibility of craftsmen and inspectors can be traced, and in the case of lost weapons and equipment, the responsibility of users and custodians must be traced.
It's just that Houjin is in a period of rise, and its internal institutions have not yet formed a stable and dark chain of interests and unspoken rules like the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Justice.
During the war, the requirements for his subordinates and even the Baoyi were extremely strict, and as long as there was the slightest problem in the work, they would be punished with a big punishment.
It can be said that Houjin completely used high-pressure and violent means to ensure the quality of weapons and equipment.
Huaxia, on the other hand, relies on strict and scientific quality control standards and systems, through various levels of assessment, monetary rewards and punishments for each qualified product, and so on, to ensure the quality of weapons and equipment.
So, the kidnapper he is very confident in the shield in the hand.
What's more, in addition to the shield accident, there is also a combat vest with bulletproof steel plates on his body, which is the most solid life support measure for the Chinese soldiers.
After the makeshift assault team approached the opposite riverbank, the riflemen who arrived behind to support them slowly stopped firing.
The kidnapper finally surveyed the distance, drew his saber casually, and placed it on the knife holder protruding from the right side of the shield with the blade upward.
Then, he pulled out a flintlock revolver from the holster attached to the combat vest around his waist.
This flintlock style pistol, because the firing method is single-action and the smoothbore barrel is used, so it can be said that it is useless when shooting at a single target at a distance of more than 20 meters.
However, if it is against a pile of enemies within 30 meters, or a single target at a position of about 10 meters, it is quite useful.
It's just that this thing doesn't have a safety device, and according to military regulations, he can't break the hammer too soon before the official engagement.
This process can only be completed before the official shooting, so that it is the safest. Therefore, he couldn't determine the distance in his heart, and he couldn't help but glance at the situation opposite.
Like their assault team, the array formed by the Houjin army on the opposite side, at the front, is also a bunch of shields.
