118 Destruction
Dada dada...
The officer leading the chest plaque at the front, as the gunshots rang out, two bloody flowers burst out on his chest. The breastplate that should have been able to block the lead bullet did not play any role.
In front of the dense wall-type charge formation, cavalry and horses kept firing out large pieces of plasma. Horses without armor protection would even be beaten into two pieces by machine gun bullets, and various organs sputtered around, making the dry and hard land suddenly become slippery.
Not all cavalrymen's wall-type storm-roof formations are gathered together because the formation is too dense and must be divided into several arrays in front and back to avoid the occurrence of a "horse collision incident".
Each layer is relatively thin and does not pursue depth.
As a result, the first array turned into corpses in just a few seconds!
Although Luo Tianjie's troops do not have many machine guns, they use cross-fire to rush forward, and the lethality caused by the target's big breastplate cavalry is very terrifying.
In addition to machine guns, there are thousands of automatic rifles shooting at the chest plaque cavalry. The first wave of chest plaque cavalry did not even react and fell off a horse or died.
After seeing this scene, the second Potts's breastplate cavalry immediately began to slow down.
This is the advantage of the wall-type charge formation. When rushing in front, the next few waves are just jogging and following, and there is no full sprint. You can stop immediately if you have time.
Of course, this is when attacking infantry. If there are cavalry on the opposite side, the wall-type charge must be kept moving forward and must not be stopped!
After the second wave of breastplate cavalry stopped, the war trumpet immediately sounded. After hearing the chestplate cavalry of the latter wave of breastplate, they began to slow down one after another. The horse, which was already unfast, quickly stopped and also sounded the war trumpet.
Not long after, the sound of the military horns became a whole, and the entire chest-plated cavalry array stopped and began to turn.
At this time, the Roman infantry and Tokugawa Iron Cannon Football were already attacking quickly, holding up the automatic rifle while aiming and shooting.
During the turn, the heavy chest-plated cavalry never expected that the enemy's bullets could shoot so far. Either the horse was hit and fell off the horse or fell directly after being shot.
Fortunately, the second wave of breastplate cavalry used as a flesh shield for the breastplate cavalry of the back several times. After seeing the tragic appearance of the teammates in front, the latter wave of breastplate cavalry did not maintain the integrity of the formation and each scattered to the main formation to flee.
If the four-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one-legged one
However, Luo Tianjie's goal is not to wipe out the British and French coalition forces. The task goal is very clear, and he only needs to defeat the main force of the British and French coalition forces.
Relying on his own automatic rifle's long range, Luo Tianjie simply pulled up a large number of tool people, leaving only the forest cool people guarding him to prevent the cavalry of the British and French forces from taking a detour.
The tool soldiers attacking the chest plaque cavalry, after the chest plaque cavalry had left the effective range, turned to attack the main formation of the British and French coalition forces under Luo Tianjie's control.
At this moment, under Luo Tianjie's control, about 2,000 tool soldiers were spread out, almost including the entire British and French coalition main formation and Bali Bridge in their attack range.
The front line set up by Luo Tianjie is a scattered line, without any depth, and bullying the opponent with a high range of guns...
Of course, in the loose front, there will be two Spartan warriors holding bazooka every distance.
Rockets are now expensive equipment for Luo Tianjie and will never be used unless necessary. After all, Luo Tianjie's heavy weapon is only RPG rocket launcher...
The disastrous defeat of the chest-plated cavalry woke up instantly. At this time, the discipline of the British and French forces far exceeded that of the Qing army was reflected. The teams that were chasing the Qing army's defeated soldiers quickly stopped chasing and retreated to regroup and lined up.
The front-loaded smooth-bore howitzers in the British and French coalition were also redirected to the gun at the officer's strict order, aiming at Luo Tianjie's troops who were rushing toward him.
The British and French Allied Forces lined up in the front row, standing with their heads held high, forming four to six rows of horizontal formations during the battle, waiting for the orders from their superiors.
However, the standing private suddenly fell down with the scattered gunfire in the distance, and the originally tight queue was suddenly defeated like a wheat harvest.
In just a few breaths, fear spread to the front line of the British and French coalition forces.
The Roman legion infantry walking in the front row will put the automatic rifle on their shoulders and pull the trigger while walking. If they encounter a large number of targets, they will stop and shoot continuously.
During this period, grenades fell next to them from time to time, overturning the Roman legion infantry to the ground!
However, as long as the blood bars of these tool soldiers were not cleared, they would get up again and join the battle again, and the wounds on their bodies at most added a bloody buff to them.
With fearlessness and advanced individual weapons, the main formation of the British and French coalition forces did not hold on for even ten minutes. They had no way to cause casualties to Luo Tianjie's troops except artillery.
In the eyes of the commanders of the British and French coalition forces, this is not a battle, but a massacre!
Ironically, they were still using equipment and tactics to slaughter the Qing army opposite in the morning. Just after noon, they themselves became the targets of being slaughtered.
The commanders of the British and French coalition forces did not continue to stand firm. Anyone with a little military knowledge knew that their hopes could only be placed on the lack of ammunition from the enemy...
When the order to retreat reached the front line, more than 80% of the line arrays on the front line had collapsed on their own. The British and French soldiers on the front line felt like they were standing and getting shot at the same time like prisoners escorted to the execution ground...
The British and French coalition's light howitzers, under the order of the officer, began to be shipped to the cannon truck.
However, the commander of the British and French coalition forces soon gave up this attempt, and the enemy attacked too quickly!
It’s not that the enemy attacks fiercely, but that the enemy will not stop at all!
Even when one side was defeated on a large scale, the unknown enemy on the opposite side had already begun to run and chase.
The British and French coalition forces have completely separated Luo Tianjie's troops from the Qing army, because the British and French coalition forces are very clear that if the Qing army really had a "musket" with such a long range, it would be impossible for the British and French coalition forces to board this land!
In the end, the British and French coalition forces gave up all the bulky artillery, threw down thousands of corpses and ran away.
You should know that the entire battle was combined, and the two sides had contacted each other for less than half an hour, but the British and French coalition forces had lost more than one-eighth of their troops!
It does not include minor wounded people, because minor wounded people will run away with the main force...
