Chapter 1036: Gunfire
Time was pressing, and Yu Liang didn't explain too much, so he ordered all the instructors to carry muskets to the front of the rejection horse, and then asked all the Japanese musketeers to line up behind them and make an example for them. [See the latest chapter of this book, please go to Marshmallow] and said, Wait a minute, once the fire is fired, the person in the front will only shoot, and the person in the back will be responsible for reloading the ammunition
。
Kazuo Shimazu suddenly realized: "Isn't this our Shimazu family's fishing bottle shot?" Hurry up, do it! ”
Soon, dozens of columns lined up behind the rejection horse.
It's strange to say, after tossing for most of the day, Jiannu has not yet arrived.
According to Yu Liang, when he was a scout earlier, he encountered the enemy brigade four miles ahead, and according to the speed at which they were advancing, it was time to climb at this time.
Ahead was a hazy night, and I couldn't see anything clearly. A while ago, the sound of the enemy's horses' hooves and footsteps could be faintly heard, but now they have all disappeared strangely.
This unusual phenomenon made everyone very nervous, and even the soldiers of the North Korean battalion, who liked to be noisy, quieted down, looked ahead in disbelief with their weapons, and tensed their bodies extremely tightly.
No one spoke, and there was the sound of rapid and heavy breathing.
"Why haven't you come yet, why haven't you come yet, General Yu, you grew up in the barracks. You say, what the hell is Jiannu doing? Zhou Zhongying seemed to be infected with this tense atmosphere, his heart was not solid, he touched Yu Liang's side, and his voice trembled with a hint of trembling.
He knew that his title of iron courage was just a casual remark by Hou Ye, in fact, he was an ordinary literati, powerless, since he killed an enemy, he was bold, but his martial arts were not at all, and he was really a cannon fodder on the battlefield. Yu Liang is the number one warrior in the army, so it is safer to stay by his side.
Yu Liang's eyes were shining, as if two snow-bright spears were piercing straight into the night ahead, he gritted his teeth and said with a smile: "That's right, that's right, this shows that the enemy has discovered us and is sending people to reconnoitre." Once we find out the details of our situation, we will attack. The so-called large army engaged, tens of thousands of people advanced, it was impossible to walk together, and it was necessary to drive the men and horses to the predetermined place one by one. ”
"Everyone is pushing in the opposite direction, and once they meet, they can't eat each other's catties. At this time, he rushed up to fight indiscriminately, which is something that only laymen who don't understand military affairs can do. Whenever this happens, the generals on both sides will stop and send people to inquire about the information first. If the enemy is stronger or equal to you, set up camp and wait for the follow-up troops to come up and join you before acting. If the enemy's strength is weaker than his own, he will naturally unceremoniously press it and eat it dry. ”
In the end, he concluded: "This is the real method of leading soldiers, just like how to train soldiers, it is the experience of the generals passed down from generation to generation, and you can't learn it from the art of war books."
。 [Marshmallow updates quickly, the website page is refreshing, there are few ads, no pop-ups, I like this kind of website the most, I must praise it]"
Zhou Zhongying suddenly realized and exclaimed: "I see, General Yu is worthy of being a disciple of the general, Qi Hu and Yu Long!" In the future, I will ask the general for more advice, and I hope that the general will not be stingy with advice. ”
Yu Liang: "Don't dare, Zhou Zhangmu is polite." Qi Hu and Yu Long will not mention it again in the future. He was about to say a few more modest words, when suddenly he felt a little chill on his face, and when he looked up, he saw a dense drizzle like cow's hair falling.
He spat out a mouthful of thick sticky phlegm forward: "Bad luck, it's raining." It's not a good thing, it's good that we didn't use an arquebus, otherwise it would be over today. ”
Zhou Zhongying's heart moved, and he shouted: "Be careful, Jiannu is going to attack." ”
Yu Liang glanced at him in surprise: "Zhou Zhangmu is worthy of being a person valued by the Hou Ye, and he knows it slightly, and he even thinks about it." That's right, Jiannuma is about to attack. They didn't know that our army's muskets were not afraid of wind and snow, and they thought that we were still using arquebuses, and they wanted to take advantage of this. ”
Zhou Zhongying was proud in his heart, he stretched out his right hand and quickly spun the two iron bullets in the palm of his hand.
Before he could be modest, suddenly, a rumbling sound of horses' hooves sounded. But I saw that dozens of cavalry suddenly appeared from the night in front of them, rushed into the river with a roar, and pounced viciously in this direction.
These dozens of cavalry came so abruptly, as if they were suddenly leaping out of a black patch, and in the blink of an eye, they rolled up a wave of waves, and their momentum was overwhelming.
Thinking about it, Jiannu's cavalry had already sneaked to the river, hid under the cover of night, and waited until it began to rain, and then pressed on the whole line.
Although the charge of dozens of cavalry was not large, it came so suddenly, it still made Zhou Zhongying like an electric shock, completely stunned.
At this time, Yu Liang's shout came from his ears: "Shoot!" ”
And then the neat sound of muskets.
Zhou Zhongying saw that a neat row of firelight was spraying out from the barrel of the gun
。
"Shoot!"
"Shoot!"
"Shoot!"
In an instant, it was a three-row salvo. 、
It was so fast, and the air was filled with the shrill whistling of projectiles and the choking smell of gunsmoke.
The flying lead bullets formed a curtain of death before the rejection of the horse, and in front of them, the galloping cavalry seemed to have been hit by invisible fists, and fell off their horses with a scream, and fell headlong in the cold water. Even the warhorse was shot by a projectile, raised its front hooves with a long neigh, and threw the knight in the saddle into the air.
It was like dumplings in front of him, and in an instant, the dead cavalry and war horses covered the entire river.
In just one moment, the first wave of Jiannu's cavalry attack was shattered like a fly by the net of flintlock muskets.
"It's too fast, it's too fast!" Zhou Zhongying was stunned to see this scene, and in an instant, these dozens of horsemen were all cleanly killed on the way. He saw that Yu Liang would throw the musket aside after each shot, take the musket handed over by a gunner behind him with his backhand, then aim and fire, and then reach out to pick up another musket handed over.
There were about a dozen gunners behind him, and like a relay, they handed over the flintlock pistols loaded with sub-medicine behind him like a drum and a flower.
At this time, Zhou Zhongying suddenly remembered what Guan Xuan's old plague student said when he was training musketeers: "A trained musketeer, from the beginning of loading ammunition to the final shot, usually takes between twenty and thirty breaths......"
General Yu's tactics are simply a breath and a shot, no matter how many enemies there are, no matter how fast the horse is ridden, it can't withstand it!
……
I don't know how many rows of guns were fired, but the shouts of the enemy in front of me and the sound of horses' hooves have completely disappeared.
Yu Liang yelled: "Stop shooting, stop shooting!" ”
The gunfire stopped.
It was already white in front of me, like a fog, and I couldn't see the people around me face to face, especially the Japanese were too small to be invisible in this white smoke
。 Behind the rejection of the horse, there was a sound of coughing one after another.
Zhou Zhongying finally came back to his senses, he proudly rubbed the bullet in his hand, and said with a smile: "Jiannu's cavalry is nothing more than that, they are all a bunch of waste!" ”
"It's not an authentic Jiannu, it's a Mongolian cavalry." Yu Liang pointed ahead: "I dealt with them when I was a soldier in Ningyuan, and you see, those cavalrymen didn't have any armor on them, and they only wore a tattered jacket. ”
Looking along his fingers, the river was full of black and floating objects, and the sky was too dark to see clearly.
But at this moment, suddenly, there was another rumbling sound.
Zhou Zhongying saw a black wall on the other side of the river move, and then slowly moved forward.
He didn't believe his eyes, and couldn't help but reach out and rub them, only then could he see clearly.
"Enemy infantry, a lot!" He couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, yes, it's too much, this wave of Jiannu's impact is at least two thousand people. The clothes on their bodies were also very simple, all cotton and linen jackets, and few of them wore armor, and even if they did, it was only leather armor.
"It's still Mongolian, we have met the main force of the Mongolian Eight Banners this time." Yu Liang sneered: "This battle is a bit interesting, pass the order, pay attention to the enemy's bow and arrow." Shimazu, Shimazu! ”
Hearing that the enemy might release arrows, Zhou Zhongying was startled and hurriedly squatted down, only to find that the thick phlegm that Yu Liang spit out earlier was still hanging on the rejection horse, and the green suddenly felt nauseous.
Kazuo Shimazu answered from a distance: "Here!" ”
"Artillery ready, wait until the enemy goes down to the river, fuck it!"
"Hello!" In the distance, Kazuo Shimazu bowed his body.
At this time, the enemy on the opposite bank shouted at the same time, and rushed down the river with weapons and weapons.
"Shoot!" Muskets rang out, neatly and forcefully, in a continuous line.
The searing projectiles formed a web of fire and shot into the bodies of the Mongols.
The dumplings continued, and one by one the enemy fell into the icy water
。
Two small four-pounder bronze cannons fired, first solid bullets, "all through" twice, and the swarthy cannonballs flew out flat.
Unfortunately, the effect was not too ideal, one fell into the river, and only a column of water was freed up. The other flew to the opposite shore and smashed the head of one of the enemy before losing its potential energy, breaking the other man's leg before stopping.
The artillery of the Shimazu wing was still not able to maneuver the artillery, and if it wanted to solve the battle, it had to rely on the musketeers.
"Shoot!"
"Shoot!"
"Shoot!"
The muskets fired at a rate of one breath, and in the midst of the fire, the night that had been dark before was translucent by the light of the fire that erupted from the muzzles.
As expected, the Mongols' bows and arrows did not appear, and the men from the Horqin steppe were all shouting loudly and rushing forward by stepping on the corpses of their comrades. Unfortunately, their attack ended on the banks of the river.
Pieces of corpses came from the opposite side, black pressed down on a layer.
Their roars turned into countless terrible cries.
Zhou Zhongying had forgotten to be afraid, he stood up and scraped off Yu Liang's thick phlegm with his shoes.
In the midst of the gunfire, thousands of faces of the enemy flickered and were so pale.
The sky was filled with sharp projectiles screeching through the air, and scorching buckshot drew hundreds of red trails in front of him.
"It's spectacular, it's spectacular!" When did Zhou Zhongying ever see such a magnificent hot weapon war, he was so shocked that he could barely breathe: "It's nothing more than killing chickens and slaughtering sheep!" ”
The rain was still falling, and although one breath changed from one musket to another, the barrel of the gun was still hot from the long firing. The rain fell on it, and there was a soft "flutter".
In the blink of an eye, the flintlock barrels in the hands of the shooters were emitting white water vapor, like a burning torch.
