[Chapter 426] One white-clothed army exchanges for six Mongolian cavalry...

(0426)

【Today's fourth update is delivered!】

In fact, last time, at Zhenyuan Pass, some of the *** cavalry had been attacked by artillery soldiers and understood the power of these explosive packs. Lin Danhan himself also knew. After returning, he sent someone to know that it was a weapon shot by a catapult. However, he thought that the White-Clothed Army would not send out these weapons during field battles. After all, it was very inconvenient to move the catapult. Unexpectedly, the White-Clothed Army still used such weapons. Fortunately, the explosive pack's explosion was not very powerful, otherwise Lin Danhan would probably regret it.

Soon, the *** cavalry had already entered a distance of about 200 meters. Such advancement speed made Lin Danhan, Na Risong and others who were watching the battle behind them feel very relieved. After all, the elite are elite, and no matter when they are, they are so trustworthy. Under the shouts of Tai Chiwu, all the *** cavalry were as fast as arrows. With such an impact speed, it only takes a moment to kill the White Army.

In fact, the cavalry can release arrowheads as long as they enter the range of twenty meters of bows and arrows. At that time, the overwhelming rain of arrows can cover all the white-clothed army. In front of the sharp arrowheads, the white-clothed army without armor protection will not last long. All nomadic peoples rely on this move to defeat the infantry of the Central Plains dynasty army. They believe that they are no exception. However, they are too optimistic. They forgot what the basic weapon of the White-clothed Army is. The distance of two hundred meters is the range of the muskets that are raging!

“First row!”

"preparation!"

"put!"

Liu Heng immediately ordered.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The continuous gunfire sounded, vibrating the entire White Tiger Ze.

With the violent gunshots and dense rain of bullets, they swept mercilessly towards the *** cavalry in front.

This is not the first time that the Dragon Cavalry has fought against the nomadic cavalry. Last time, when he was in Zhenyuan Pass, the Dragon Cavalry was the leader. Therefore, they have rich experience in dealing with the rushing cavalry. They know how to organize firepower, how to choose attack targets, how to shoot as much as possible, and how to eliminate the enemy to the greatest extent. They even know how to shoot to avoid wasting ammunition.

"Plop!"

"Plop!"

"Plop!"

Sure enough, under the fierce shooting of the Dragon Cavalry, the *** cavalry in front kept falling to the ground. Thumb-sized Minnie bullets brought to the human body or to the war horses, which were absolutely unbearable. As long as they were hit, they would be either dead or injured. The sound of personnel landing seemed very abrupt in the gunshots. In the middle, there were the painful neighs of war horses and the screams of personnel, mixed with each other, just like music from hell. The blood constantly splashed out made the battlefield even more bloody.

“Second row!”

"preparation!"

"put!"

Liu Heng continued to issue orders.

After the soldiers in the first row were shot, the soldiers in the second row followed. The soldiers in the second row released the muzzle from the shoulders of the soldiers in the first row and continued to shoot fierce Minnie bullets in front. The cavalry, who had been hit by Minnie bullets, suffered a second volley, and the number of casualties was even greater. A large number of people or war horses died on the way forward, greatly affecting the advance of their companions behind. Coupled with the explosion of the explosive pack, the attacking queue of the cavalry had completely dispersed.

"Free shooting!"

Liu Heng quickly issued a new order.

The shooting combination method of the White Army has given up the three-stage shooting mode and changed to the two-row shooting mode. The biggest flaw of this shooting mode is that even if the gunfires hurt the soldiers in front of you. After all, shooting in close range in your ear is definitely not a joke. However, if a stupid person has a stupid way, putting two cotton balls into his ears can basically solve it. However, the strong and choking smell of gunpowder produced by the shooting makes people feel uncomfortable. After a battle, the nostrils are covered in black.

The continuous volleys caused great damage to the *** cavalry. A large number of *** cavalry were hit by Minnie bombs and rolled down directly from the horse's back. A large number of *** war horses fell down and kneeled down. The worst thing was that the injured witch horses were constantly struggling on the ground and tried hard to stand up. Unfortunately, their fate was very miserable. Either they were beaten by the *** cavalry, who swung their swords to kill them to prevent them from moving randomly and blocking the attack route. Or they were hit by Minnie bombs and completely killed.

After two consecutive rounds of volleys, the White Army did not continue to volley, but adopted the method of free shooting. After all, the number of musketeers was too large, and the speed of reloading was different. It was no longer necessary to organize volleys, which would waste resources. Therefore, the shooting behind became the skill competition of each musketeer. Each musketeer of the White Army was madly firing out Minnie bullets to the front as fast as possible.

Judging from the attack effect of the Minnie bullet, the shooting behind is like a modern rifle, which continues. The loading time of a Minnie bullet takes about twelve seconds on average. If there are twelve musketeers shooting in turn, theoretically, one Minnie bullet can be shot in one second. In other words, at any time, Minnie bullets will fly in. The top people in any position may be hit by Minnie bullets.

"Don't panic!"

"Don't look at the enemy!"

“Take this place as a training ground!”

Amid the fierce gunfire, there were always calm sounds of officers.

Among the white-clothed army troops participating in the battle this time, the number of new recruits accounted for almost 30%. So many new recruits were directly pulled to the battlefield hundreds of miles away after only half a month of basic training. Their practical experience was almost blank. Faced with the assault charge of tens of thousands of cavalrymen, they had no experience. Therefore, officers must supervise the battle so that they can exert their maximum combat effectiveness.

It goes without saying that at the beginning, many recruits were very nervous and often made mistakes when operating the musket. New recruits who were originally performing well in the training ground had their operating levels plummeted while under tremendous psychological pressure. Sometimes, they could not fire three Minnie rounds in a minute. Fortunately, after several consecutive launches, they gradually matured, and the speed of operating the musket gradually returned to normal.

Of course, relying solely on Minnie bullets and explosive packs, it is impossible to stop the impact of the *** cavalry. The assault speed of the cavalry is absolutely unparalleled. A distance of two hundred meters, which is just a blink of an eye, comes up. Even the white-clothed soldiers who are most skilled in operating muskets can only shoot at most three times. After the muskets are shot three times, some of the *** cavalry have rushed to a distance of twenty or thirty feet and shot out their bows and arrows.

"Swoosh!"

"Swoosh!"

"Swoosh!"

Sharp arrows fell down, and white-clothed military musketeers kept falling to the ground.

The musketeers of the White Army did not have any armor protection. They did not have any protective power when facing the fierce arrows flying in. As long as they were shot, they would be either dead or injured. Fortunately, the White Army was prepared for this. The reserve team and other things were on the verge of the ground. The musketeers who fell were quickly dragged away, and then more musketeers took turns to make up and continued to fire fierce Minnie bullets at the *** cavalry in front.

From the perspective of every white-clothed soldier, they are at risk of being shot. Even if you are the squadron leader, the squadron leader, or even the commander, you may be shot by arrows. Because their command position is completely within the range of the *** people's bow and arrow. With the tactics of the *** people, they will definitely not be able to escape unless they are not discovered. However, from the perspective of Xu Xingxia, it is completely different. Each soldier who is shot is like a drop of water in the sea, and has no impact on the entire battlefield at all.

In such a war, sporadic casualties are simply negligible. As long as the casualties have not reached a certain level, there is no need to pay attention. If you can't afford the most basic casualties, what kind of war will you fight? Let's go home and carry your children! In fact, while the White Army suffered casualties, the **** people were also suffering huge casualties. In terms of casualties, the **** people were much more than the White Army. They should be the first to be anxious.

In fact, those rushing cavalry often come to the end of their lives while shooting bows and arrows. Their distance is too close, and if they are targeted by the musketeers of the White Army, there is basically no possibility of survival. At a distance of twenty or thirty feet, several or even dozens of muskets aimed at you, and you can think of it with your heels. Even if you are so lucky that you are not directly knocked into a hornet's nest by the musket, your war horse will definitely have no chance of surviving. Without the help of the war horse, your death will not be far away.

"Boom!"

At this time, the artillery battalion also switched to No. 3 explosive pack.

The medium-sized explosive pack with a capacity of 30 kilograms is obviously larger than that of the small explosive pack. When each explosive pack is packed, it will overturn all the cavalry within three meters of the surrounding area. The cavalry outside the 3 meters will be unable to control the impact of huge air waves and have to walk around from the side. The number of war horses that are frightened is also greater. As a result, several cavalrymen often collided with each other and finally fell to the ground together.

Attacked by the medium-sized explosive pack, the attack team of the cavalry was completely scattered. Each of them could only fight on their own. The adjustments of the centurion and the commander of the thousand-man were no longer effective. The dense gunfire and continuous explosions on the battlefield completely covered up the voices, and it was useless to shout loudly. Many centurions were even killed and their command system collapsed. In the face of the brutal rain of bullets, the bravery and fearlessness of the people were no longer effective. Their destiny was entirely determined by luck.

The lucky cavalry were not blown up by explosives, nor were they hit by Minnie bombs, and they could rush to the front of the downpole and shoot their arrows at the white-clothed army as they wished. But if they were not lucky, they fell halfway, and they didn't know their life or death. Basically, among the one hundred lucky cavalry, there may be less than thirty. The other seventy had various problems due to their bad luck.

The *** cavalry who could rush to the front of the stake became the hope of Lin Danhan, Tai Chiwu and others. They hoped that the warriors under their command could completely tear the White-Clothed Army's team with crazy arrowheads. Unfortunately, their wishes were so strong and their hopes were so deep, but they could never wait for the result they wanted. The White-Clothed Army's queue was not torn apart, but the Warriors of the West kept falling down.

Indeed, the *** cavalry's bows and arrows can indeed shoot some soldiers in the white-clothed army, which can indeed cause certain psychological pressure to the white-clothed army, and can indeed bring hope for victory to Lin Danhan and others. However, relatively speaking, the *** people suffered more casualties. The *** people's attack method is very simple, with only bows and arrows. Relatively speaking, the attack method of the white-clothed army is much more complicated. The combination of muskets and stone-cabbing machines has caused a large number of casualties to the *** people.

In terms of proportion, if there were ten cavalrymen who could rush to the front of the horse stake, at least twenty or thirty cavalrymen fell on the road to impact. Among the remaining ten cavalrymen, there were probably only five or six people who could take action successfully. The other three or four people might have been killed by the brutal rain of bullets before they could take action. Among the five or six people who could take action smoothly, there might be half of the casualties that could effectively cause injuries and casualties to the White Army. This shows how big the difference is between the casualties and deaths of the two sides.

"I am worthy of being a powerful white-clothed army!" Lin Shenhe quietly said to himself.

The one who touched the most about the battle on the front line was probably the General Lin Shenhe who participated in the battle for the first time. As an old soldier who had earned great achievements, he fought with the nomadic peoples for a long time. Almost every year, he had to fight with the Tartars. However, every time, it ended with the defeat of the Ming army. The best result was that the nomadic cavalry could not gain the advantage and had to retreat in shame. The Ming army could retreat unstoppably.

However, the battle between the White Army and the Upper Army was completely head-on. There was no trick in the middle. In terms of number of people, the White Army was still at a disadvantage. It has to be said that the unique muskets used by the White Army were indeed too powerful. The other muskets used by the Ming army were simply garbage compared to those used by the White Army! It is estimated that it was because of such muskets as basic weapons that Xu Xingxia dared to wrestle with the Upper Army!

After this battle, Lin Danhan is probably going to be more troublesome, whether it is victory or failure. His fundamental force is 50,000 iron-spun cavalry. If these 50,000 iron-spun cavalry suffered a huge blow, then his military power would be greatly weakened. Judging from the current situation, his iron-spun cavalry is constantly bleeding and suffering casualties. Even if the final result is Lin Danhan's miserable victory, the number of his iron-spun cavalry will probably be greatly reduced. This is definitely not a good thing for him.

"puff!"

"puff!"

"puff!"

Suddenly, strange muffled sounds kept coming.

Lin Shenhe raised the thousand-mile mirror and looked forward. As a result, he suddenly discovered that the *** cavalry rushing forward had hit the top of the downward horse stake. One by one, the sharp downward horse stakes pierced directly into the horse's belly. How fast was the war horse's speed? Such a collision made the downward horse stake directly from the front horse's belly, and it broke its intestines and opened its belly to the horse's butt. It would definitely be too dead to die. Blood arrows splashed out, accompanied by the painful neighing of the war horse, instantly attracted the attention of countless people.

“Huh?”

Xu Xingxia suddenly exclaimed, as if she had discovered something strange.

Lin Shenhe looked along Xu Xingxia's sight and found that it was the ***ers. After the war horse was stabbed to death, there was nothing to do. After they were overturned to the ground, they were lucky to be not stabbed by the wooden stakes in front of them, so they rolled on the ground and turned over and stood up. Some ***ers continued to rush forward and tried to fight with the white-clothed army. Some ***ers bent their bows and arrows on the white-clothed army. I have to say that these damn ***ers are indeed very tenacious in vitality and combat power. If they are killed, it will be troublesome.

Fortunately, the musketeers of the White Army reacted very quickly. When they found that the surviving ***ers immediately turned their guns and shot them at their location, they were shot in a series of fire. A large number of Minnie bullets whistled away, and they were riddled with holes on the spot. The distance was too close and there was almost no need to aim. Even if those surviving ***ers were Daluo Jinxian, they were hit by a few or dozens of Minnie bullets, they could only fall to the ground.

Xu Xingxia slowly put down the Qianli Miles Miles and did not continue to watch. The battle has been carried out until now, and all the weapons and tactics have been fully utilized. I guess Lin Danxing also knew the background of the White Army. Xu Xingxia also knew the background of Lin Danhan. What is left is the consumption of personnel, resources, and the size of casualties between the two sides. In a common saying, whoever can grit his teeth and persevere until the end will be the winner.

...

A stick of incense passed, and the battle was still in a fierce stalemate. The cavalry continued to rush forward, and the white-clothed army continued to fight back. Xu Xingxia asked Liu Chuang to count the wounded and martyrs, and found that the losses of the white-clothed army were estimated to be about 500. Most of them were shot to death by the arrows of the *** cavalry. The riding and shooting of the *** people cannot be underestimated. Without the assistance of the side vans, the casualties of the white-clothed army were inevitable.

As for the casualties of the *** people, it is estimated that it is about six to eight times that of the White-Clothed Army, and there should be no ten times. The main reason is that there is no side van. Without side vans, the arrows of the cavalry can be shot unscrupulously, causing damage to the White-Clothed Army. If there is protection from side vans, the casualties ratio of ten times should be no problem. In the last battle with the Tatars, the casualties ratio between the two sides was almost more than 30 to one.

In fact, Xu Xingxia is already very satisfied with this casualty ratio. It is absolutely acceptable to use the life of a white army musketeer to exchange the lives of more than six cavalrymen. Such a business is definitely done. It should be known that it is quite difficult for a *** to train a archer. An excellent archer needs to be trained from a young age, and it takes at least several years. However, Xu Xingxia only needs three months to train a basically qualified musketeer. Even if necessary, he can be trained on the battlefield in half a month.

As the battle continued, a large amount of blood flowed along the grass to the nearby Baihu Lake. The lake water inside the Baihu Lake was gradually dyed red with blood. It is estimated that for a long time in the future, the lake water inside the Baihu Lake will not be referenced. Unless you are not surprised by the rich bloody smell in the lake.

The *** people were still rushing forward desperately, while the white-clothed army musketeers did not know how to counterattack. The front row of horse stakes had been destroyed by the *** people. Some *** people who rushed up discovered the danger of the stakes and tried to cut off the stakes with their own sabers. They kept swinging their knives until they were killed. There were *** people coming up to cut down the stakes, but in the end they were destroyed a whole row. However, there were five rows of horse stakes in total. One row was destroyed, and the four rows behind could continue to play a role.

"Roar up!"

"Kill them!"

Tai Chiwu roared fiercely.

He kept waving the scimitar in his hand and ordered the *** cavalry to step forward.

Although he was the commander of the thousands of men, he was the commander-in-chief of the front line of the *** people. He had supreme power on the front line and no one could disobey it. However, what was interesting was that he kept throwing the *** people into the battlefield, but he never went up. To be honest, he was a little scared. The counterattack of the musketeers of the White Army made him feel very afraid. Unless he had the luck of defiance, it was impossible to pass through the bullet rain of the White Army.

"Damn Tai Chiwu, what is he doing?" Lin Danhan was furious.

As the most brave general under his command, Tai Chiwu's performance today was completely beyond Lin Danhan's expectations. Lin Danhan believed that the reason why he has not achieved satisfactory results so far is because of this Tai Chiwu. This damn guy used to be in the front, why did he procrastinate for so long and have not yet stepped up?

"Tell Tai Chiwu to kill him!" Lin Danhan gave a bluntly order.

He did not suspect that Tai Chiwu was afraid of death. In his subconscious, Tai Chiwu was never afraid of death. He thought that Tai Chiwu was thinking about something. However, Lin Danhan was very dissatisfied. At this time, what else should I consider? Just rush forward. With your luck, what enemies can't break through?

"Affect the order!" Tai Chiwu, who received the order, immediately felt that his doomsday had arrived. However, Lin Danhan's order must not be disobeyed. There was no way, Tai Chiwu had to squeeze the horse's belly and rushed forward. Suddenly, he felt his body be hit hard by several things. Then, his body lost control, rolled down from the horse's back, and fell into a deep pool of blood with a thud.

"I knew it would be like this..." Tai Chiwu subconsciously murmured to himself. God didn't care about him in the end, which made him feel very desperate. Unfortunately, he had no time to complain. The next moment, there was darkness in front of him.

...
Chapter completed!
