What deficiencies did Zhao Yu find?

To put it simply, although these muskets have a long range and great power, they are generally not much different from the attack method of a bow and crossbow. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Although this attack method has many advantages when dealing with cavalry, it can achieve such results at this moment, to a large extent, not thanks to weapons and tactics, but when the gun fires, it startles the opponent's horse, making the opponent's impact formation chaotic, which cannot be classified as a normal combat mode.

In other words, if the other party's horses were not frightened, but rushed over in one go without fear of life and death, the hundreds of people in Zhao Yu's hands would be immediately disrupted by the other party...... Of course, Zhao Yu is not so stupid, she has left her hands in advance when she takes people to the beach. If he really lost the five hundred musketeers, Zhao Yu would not be able to explain to Lu Ren.

All in all, Zhao Yu led these 500 people to battle, and the main purpose was still to accumulate combat experience against cavalry, not really to fight to the death with these Hu cavalry men and horses. And Zhao Yu in this first engagement, after having some ideas in his mind, he no longer was greedy for merit, but took out a firework and ordered someone to light a cigarette. Well, it's fireworks, muskets and artillery have been made, and if the fireworks can't be made, then Lu Ren can go to. However, this firework is not a thing to play, but a signal flare.

"The signal of the rain girl is coming!"

The personnel who were engaged with Hu Qi at the wharf saw Zhao Yu's fireworks, and the personnel in charge of driving the boat immediately began to move with all their might, and more than a dozen large ships docked at the wharf also began to "reverse...... This time, the Hu Qi on the dock were all dumbfounded! These ships obviously didn't raise their sails, how could they still move themselves? And I didn't see any oars, did I?

Nonsense! Lu Rendu began to sell steam-powered ships to Sun Quan, where would the ships of the official merchant group to the outside world not have steam-powered? And the "reversing" of the ship is one of the basic capabilities, okay? But these Hu riders are standard dirt buns, and where do you know this?

As a result, the dozen or so big boats reversed and reversed dozens of meters, leaving a bunch of Hu riders and horses crowded on the dock staring dryly. At this moment, someone suddenly pointed to the sea and exclaimed, "Why is there another ship coming?" ”

Indeed, another ship came. When everyone was fighting fiercely before, few people noticed these ships that appeared. And among these ships, in addition to the big merchant ships that transport merchants, there are more than a dozen standard warships. When the ships approached, the portholes on one side of the ships were pulled up one by one, and the black holes of the guns were also pointed at the dock.

Some of the riders have realized that it is not good, but it is too late. Strings of tongues of fire erupted from the muzzle of the black hole, and the shells hit the dock accurately.

"All the gun positions, give me the Hu cavalry who aimed at the shore, and bombarded the fucking !! fiercely"

With Zhao Yu's order, more than a dozen of Yizhou's most elite gunboats spewed out tongues of fire one after another, shooting powerful cannonballs into the Hu cavalry group.

I still remember that in the fourteenth year of Jian'an, dozens of gunboats under Lu Ren's command once made a threat, beating the vanguard of Sun Quan's navy. However, due to the lack of ammunition on hand at that time, the real offensive was actually a bit anticlimactic, and it scared Sun Quan back.

But this time the gunboat was different again. After a lapse of four years, Yizhou's firearms technology has developed well, ammunition production has long kept up, and artillery shells have been improved. For example, now, although there are only about a dozen warships under Zhao Yu's command, the ammunition of each ship is sufficient, and all the submunitions that are launched have a diffuse killing effect. As soon as the shell hits the ground and explodes, the small shrapnel inside will scatter in all directions, and its lethal ability to kill soldiers is no joke.

In the rumbling of the cannons, the many Hu cavalry crowded here on the dock immediately screamed miserably, and the huge sound produced by the explosion of the cannonballs directly shocked the Hu cavalry crew's war horses completely out of control. And then to the firelight, the many Hu Qi Ke was completely chaotic, trampling on each other and killing countless people.

Hu Qi, who was a little farther out, saw that the momentum was not right, and immediately turned his horse's head and prepared to slip away. But before they could run a few steps, they suddenly realized that there were two more teams of soldiers and horses with more than 1,000 men and horses on the rear flanks of the harbor at some point, and they had blocked the way, and there was a great tendency to encircle the wharf.

The appearance of this situation made Zhao Yu also stunned, but he immediately understood that it was the reinforcements from Tian Chou's side who arrived on the battlefield. In fact, when Zhao Yu's fleet had just appeared in this sea area and found that the town was besieged by Hu Caimen, Zhao Yu had already sent a telegram to Tian Chou's communication personnel, asking the communication personnel to inform Tian Chou immediately and ask Tian Chou to bring people over to support. If you calculate the time, Tian Chou's people should also arrive at this time.

In general, Zhao Yu can only be regarded as holding back these Hu cavalry here, and the next artillery bombardment is just to prepare for artillery fire and disrupt the morale of Hu Cai, and the real main attack is still to count on the reinforcements brought by Tian Chou. On the other hand, Tian Chou and Hu Qi have been dealing with each other for so many years, and many things are quite clear, plus he had fought with Hu Qi with Zhao Yu before, so when Zhao Yu's fleet was preparing for artillery fire on the dock, Tian Chou did not rush to act, but calmly lined up the formation, and just waited for Zhao Yu's artillery fire to stop and rush over.

The artillery preparation soon stopped, and Tian Chou's men and horses rushed over. The ship that had previously restrained Hu Cai's men and horses also docked again, and the 2,000 foot soldiers on board also disembarked and pressed towards Hu Cai in formation.

At this time, Hu Qi ushered in a real catastrophe. If Tian Chou's cavalry troops rushed into the enemy formation to disrupt the enemy's position, and at the same time ate the enemy in small pieces, then these infantry phalanxes are undoubtedly lions with huge mouths open, which can bite off a large piece in one bite, and after eating, there will be nothing left of the dregs.

The Hu cavalry here in the harbor has long been chaotic, and where can they withstand the strict and tacit cooperation of the Yizhou soldiers? Now it's a very simple sentence, the Yizhou soldiers and horses are simply unilaterally slaughtering Hu Qi!

Zhao Yu's 500 musketeers had also converged with the Yizhou infantry phalanx at this time, and under the cover of the infantry phalanx, the 500 musketeers had less worries and began to fire at Hu Cai's men and horses unscrupulously. You say that the Hu riders who have been disrupted can stand this? So this in turn accelerated the rate of their deaths......

――――――――――――――――――――

After the battle, Zhao Yu, Tian Chou, and Murong Ziying met on the ship. As for things like cleaning up the battlefield, they don't need to deal with it.

Although such a battle was fought today, and the wharf was destroyed a little fiercely, the town of the port did not suffer any losses. The main reason is that the town's city defense is relatively strong, and the people who stay here in charge of Tian Chou are bent on holding on, and Hu Qi is not good at attacking the city, and this time he came in a big way mainly to take the fleet as the main target, and all the departments are unwilling to gnaw the hard bone of the town, so the attack on the town is not big.

After some talking, Zhao Yu learned that Hu Qi didn't come too much this time, and according to the love clothes collected by Tian Chou, the total number should be about five thousand. In terms of the mode of action, it should be a joint action of some scattered tribes. This situation is very common in the current western Liaoning region. It may be because everything that can be grabbed has been robbed, and the oil and water here in the port are relatively rich, so these small tribes have set their sights on the port.

However, the losses of Hu Qi in today's battle were very fierce, more than 5,000 horses came, but more than 3,000 corpses were left, and nearly 2,000 horses were collected. According to Lu Ren's intentions, Zhao Yu only selected more than 100 of these captured war horses as stallions to be brought back to Yizhou, and the rest were all handed over to Tian Chou and Murong Ziying, after all, Murong Ziying wanted to prepare a cavalry unit, and the horses needed to be prepared.

After the "sharing of spoils" ended, Zhao Yu asked Tian Chou and Murong Ziying about their current situation here. And under this question, Zhao Yu was so angry that he directly smashed the wine glass in his hand.

Murong Ziying has not been idle in the past few months, and has sent people to contact the Xianbei tribe in western Liaoxi, and at the same time, as long as the situation allows, he will launch small-scale attacks on some Karasuma tribes, so in addition to capturing a lot of Hu Qi, he also rescued a large number of people captured by Hu Qi.

Almost all of the people who had been captured by Karasuma were wounded and hungry. If it is a younger woman, it is almost without exception to be ...... Needless to say, this is not a big deal. In short, these Hu cavalry did not treat their captives as human beings at all, but as animals, utensils, and slaves, and the captive people were tortured by this, and even many women were on the verge of collapse and madness.

Over the years, Yizhou has been somewhat close to equality between men and women, at least the soldiers of Yizhou respect and love women. Now that I've heard about the plight of so many tortured women in the North, aren't they all mad with anger? All of a sudden, the small number of captured Hu Qiqi became the target of their anger, and their deaths were even more miserable.

For this kind of thing, Zhao Yu originally wanted to order to stop it, but was stopped by Tian Chou. This is war, and many times there can be no kindness for women, especially against these robbers. In other words, these Hu cavalry who came to plunder simply deserved their own crimes, and it was cheaper for them to beat them to death directly.

In addition, Tian Chou is also thinking about morale. After all, now that he has done it openly with the Karasuma tribe, he needs something to arouse the hatred and fighting spirit of the soldiers against Hu Qi. And isn't the evil behavior of Hu Qi that everyone is seeing now the best catalyst? The more the Yizhou soldiers hated the captured Hu Cai, it undoubtedly showed that the more they hated Hu Cai, and naturally the more they wanted to fight Hu Cai...... (To be continued.) )
