Buried Alive in the Main Volume of the Qing Dynasty Chapter 866 The devil is coming, Jesus saves life! "Boom, boom, boom..."

With a loud roar, twenty or thirty artillery shells whizzed past two loose rows of Yin family warriors... without hitting, and these Yin family warriors seemed not to know that they were

As if he had become the enemy's bombardment target, he still walked calmly and moved forward unhurriedly.

Seeing this scene, all the Spaniards showed expressions of disbelief.

What kind of wrong medicine did these Inca people take? They were so leisurely being bombarded! Is this the Holy Spear appearing, or are these Inca people just fools?

"Boom boom boom!"

The shelling continues!

Another volley from the three-pounder was fired, but as usual it was still a missed shot... Well, the distance was still quite far! The accuracy of the 3-pounder smoothbore cannon was just like that.

However, as long as these Incas get closer, they will know how powerful Spanish cannons are!

But just when these Incas reached the left front and 700 yards of the Spanish Royal Army's artillery group, they suddenly stopped advancing.

Then more than half of the Incas squatted down and stopped moving forward. The remaining Incas carrying flintlock guns held their guns, bent over, and approached the Spanish artillery group in a more loose formation.

What is this for?

Even an experienced veteran like the Duke of Lorraine was confused by the Incas' mysterious operations. So he did not immediately order the cavalry and fusiliers to attack the crouching Incas. Instead, he raised his telescope and

Want to see what happens.

It was now about five o'clock in the morning, almost six o'clock in the morning, and the sky was almost bright, so the Duke of Lorraine could see very clearly through the telescope.

He found that the Inca men who were advancing in a squatting position stopped advancing when they reached about 400 yards in front of the Spanish Royal Army's artillery group. Instead, they raised their muskets and started shooting from a kneeling position.

"What?" the Duke of Lorraine was startled and said to himself, "muskets versus cannons...are they crazy? Don't they know there are shotguns?"

At this moment, the situation on the frontline changed again.

The squatting Inca musketeers had already opened fire. The muzzles of about two hundred muskets flashed with muzzle flashes one after another!

"The distance is so far... At this distance, even a rifled gun is not easy to hit!" When the Duke of Lorraine said this, more than twenty artillerymen on the Spanish artillery position had been hit. One by one.

As if he was electrocuted, he fell to the ground trembling!

Some of them were not killed immediately, but had corks penetrated into their bodies or broke the bones in their arms and thighs... It was a heart-piercing pain!

In pain, they fell to the ground, rolled and screamed, shouting loudly the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

"Why is the shooting so accurate?" The Duke of Lorraine gasped when he saw the losses of his own artillery.

However, until this moment, he still didn't think those Incas who were squatting and shooting could be very powerful... weren't they just snipers? The Spanish Imperial Army also had snipers. Although their marksmanship was not as good as theirs, the effective range was not that far.

, but there are a lot of them! As long as more skirmishers are sent up to shoot at them, they should be driven away quickly.

In addition, the rifled guns used by snipers are very troublesome to load. They usually have to retreat after firing one shot, and it is impossible to reload on the front line. It is estimated that they will retreat before the Spanish sharpshooters can come up.

Thinking of this, it pointed its telescope at the Inca snipers who had stood up. However, they saw that these snipers were loading bullets... and they moved very quickly, and they were loaded in a short time!

Judging from the speed of loading and the tools they used, it seemed that they were holding muskets instead of rifled guns!

How can this be?

Before the Duke of Lorraine could react, the Incas who had finished loading had already raised their muskets, aimed at the Spanish artillery and opened fire again!

The distance was still four hundred yards, and the hit rate was less than 10%. After a burst of crisp gunfire, seventeen or eight Spanish gunners were knocked down!

"How is this possible?" Duke Lorraine was a little confused.

How could the musketeers kill the artillerymen like this? How could the loading speed of rifled guns be so fast? How could it be difficult for them to use smoothbore guns instead of rifled guns?

But isn’t this accuracy too high?

"Boom boom..."

At this time, the 3-pound regimental guns finally fired back, but not all of them fired. Only 21 or 2 of the more than 30 3-pound guns fired. The rest may not have been able to complete the loading and reloading in time because the gunners suffered too heavy casualties.

Shoot? But even if the twenty or so 3-pound cannons were fired, they didn't have much accuracy - how accurate would it be to use solid bullets from smoothbore cannons to hit infantry scattered hundreds of yards away? Even if they had accuracy, it wouldn't work.

, the solid bullet does not explode, it relies on an iron lump to hit people, and it can bump into a few enemies when encountering a dense team. If it hits scattered enemies, even if it hits, it will kill one of them, and its power is about the same as that of a rifled gun.

Although the shotshells can hit a large area, the distance of 400 yards is too far, and the shotshells of the 3-pounder can't reach it.

After about twenty 3-pound cannons were fired, one or two of the Incas on the opposite side seemed to be dead, but the remaining two hundred had already completed loading again in a hurry, and then all the rifled guns were raised.

Standing up, the black muzzle of the gun was pointed at the Spanish artillery more than 400 yards away, followed by another burst of crackling gunfire, and then fifteen or six Spanish artillerymen lay flat!

At this time, the spirit of the Spanish artillery finally collapsed. They lost more than fifty people in a short period of time. The artillery positions were full of people who were dead or about to die. They screamed, cried, and prayed.

In one piece, the smell of blood and the smell of gunpowder smoke mixed together to form the most terrifying smell of death.

I don’t know who shouted first: "Devils! They are devils...Run!"

Then all the gunners who could still run away dropped their cannons and ran away, shouting as they ran: "Devil! Devil! The Incas are all devils..."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Damn, a bunch of cowards!"

Seeing that his artillery position collapsed, the Duke of Lorraine couldn't help but cursed, but he also knew that it was impossible to shoot at the 3-pounder cannon and the Inca's possibly enchanted flintlock. Fortunately, he

There are also a lot of infantry and cavalry available!

"Cavalry! Let the cavalry on the front line charge!" The experienced Duke of Lorraine made a decisive decision and immediately gave the order for the cavalry to charge. In fact, part of his cavalry had been following the 3-pound cannon, waiting for the Inca cavalry to be bombarded by the cannon.

Unable to bear it, he rushed out of the camp and fought back with all his strength - he knew that the Incas were nomadic people and should have used horseback riding and archery as their main method of warfare, but these people came with a skirmisher to snipe... Oh

, there are still thousands and hundreds of archers squatting behind and don’t know what to do? Just use the cavalry to deal with them all!

With the sound of a charge horn, the two battalions of Spanish "leather jacket" cavalry who had already formed their formation immediately drew their flintlock pistols and began to charge forward.

The so-called leather jacket cavalry is actually a kind of New Spanish cavalry wearing a thick deerskin coat that can protect against Indian bows and arrows, and holding a Moorish shield. It is mainly deployed in the north of New Spain to defend against those who are not very obedient.

A hunting Indian tribe that could not be wiped out by the smallpox virus. The main members were of mixed Indo-European descent. In order to get the chance to climb up, they became the vanguard of New Spain's invasion and expansion.

Because they have been fighting the hunting Indians in the north for a long time, they are the Spanish imperial army who know the Indian barbarians best. Although they have seen that the Incas are too "un-Indian", they still let them use the habits they have developed over the years.

The old way of "printing" is to "fight Yin". That is, stare at the soft feather arrows shot by the Indians, rush forward and fire a round of flintlock pistols, and then rush forward to engage in hand-to-hand combat with sabers or spears.

But the Yin family was not an Inca after all. When the Yin family snipers who had just finished shooting saw the cavalry approaching them, they all ran away without saying a word. The "archers" squatting behind them immediately stood up and

They formed two dense horizontal lines at the fastest speed, and then trotted all the way to face the running snipers. It seemed that they wanted to meet those people. But in fact...

The experienced Duke of Lorraine didn't know what he actually wanted to do.

Although there are nearly two thousand Inca archers and their snipers in total, they are not equipped with long-handled weapons such as spears, and the few rifled guns do not seem to have bayonets... They plan to use

What about opposing "leather jacket" cavalry? With machetes and bows and arrows?

However, those Inca warriors standing in two rows did not take off their bows and arrows or draw their scimitars. Do they want to face the cavalry attack with their bare hands?

Just when the Duke of Lorraine was confused, the "unarmed" Incas had already joined the Inca snipers. Only one of the Incas holding a red flag was seen waving the flag vigorously a few times, and then all the Incas

The people stopped advancing, and then reorganized the formation as quickly as possible, and finally formed a formation with the front row kneeling, the back row standing, and the snipers holding long guns in the third row busy loading ammunition.

What is this for?

Not only could the Duke of Lorraine not understand, but even the Spanish "leather jacket" cavalry charging on horseback with flintlock pistols were a little confused - were these Inca fools?

But confusion does not affect their charge!

More than five hundred war horses lined up in two rows, and the scene of running wildly with their hooves spread was quite frightening. More than two thousand horse hooves hit the ground with a sound like rolling thunder. The tall war horses lined up side by side were like a wall of moving earth.

The walls are about to be crushed by the enemies standing in front of them!

Under normal circumstances, the Indian warriors would almost collapse when they saw this scene - they didn't know how to deal with the cavalry holding muskets and launching a group charge, so they could only run away.

But those "Inca archers" were not afraid at all, nor did they run away. They just kept kneeling, standing, or loading their ammunition calmly. Suddenly, the red flag suddenly lay flat. Then they saw the two

The "Inca archers" who were half-kneeling or standing in the row put their right hands into the hem of their robes, and then pulled out a weird-looking pistol!

"Is this a pistol? The Inca archers wanted to use pistols to deal with the cavalry? But shouldn't archers use bows and arrows?" Just as a few questions popped up in the Duke of Lorraine's mind, he already saw a burst of flashing guns through the telescope.

Mouth flames and smoke.

The pistol of the "Inca Archer" opened fire when it was still seventy or eighty yards away from the "Leather Jacket" cavalry... At this distance, even the long-barreled musket could hit, let alone

The Duke of Lorraine was not nervous when he saw the muzzle flash, but he also laughed: "Hahaha..."

But his laughter stopped suddenly because he saw another flash of muzzle flash and smoke - those pistols were fired again without being loaded!

Is this a repeating pistol?

The Duke of Lorraine's question soon had an answer, because he saw the third muzzle flash flashing again, followed by the fourth, fifth, and sixth... about a month later.

Eighteen hundred revolvers fired six rounds in a row, firing more than 10,000 cork bullets - these revolvers were not smoothbore pistols, but rifled pistols using cork bullets!

Although their barrels are relatively short and their effective range cannot be compared with long-barreled rifles, they are not comparable to smoothbore pistols that are difficult to hit a target ten paces away. At least they are not worse than ordinary flintlock smoothbore guns.

.So the effect of these ten thousand and hundreds of cork bullets is comparable to that of tens of thousands of flintlock muskets!

The five hundred or so Spanish "leather jacket" cavalry were hit by more than 10,000 rounds of bullets!

When the smoke cleared from the battlefield, more than 90% of the cavalry were either knocked to the ground with their horses and men, or their men and horses were knocked down. They were beaten from cavalry to infantry. Some horses were still there, but

There was nothing on the horse's back. There was a large area of ​​dead people and horses, and there were also some people and horses who were not quite dead, and they let out bursts of heart-rending wails!

There are also thirty or forty "leather jacket" cavalry who probably accumulated great virtue in the previous life. They have perfectly avoided all the bullets. Now they have both men and horses. However, they have completely lost the courage to fight. They all turned around and turned around.

While running away, he opened his throat like crazy and shouted: "Devil! The devil is coming! Jesus help... Jesus come and save us!"

And the only answer to them was the sound of "bang bang bang" gunfire!

The "Inca snipers" who had just been busy reloading arrived on the front line again and began to use their accurate marksmanship to cover the retreat of the "archers" who did not shoot arrows but only fired - they had to go back and reload bullets!

The six-shooter revolver is fun to fire, but reloading takes a while.

Seeing those cavalrymen who had finally escaped from the "devil's" hands being knocked off their horses one by one from behind, an atmosphere of fear and depression spread among the Spanish Royal Army.

There really is a devil! And the devil is not only powerful, but also very cruel. Now the only way to defeat the devil is to ask Jesus to come down to earth, so everyone turned to look at the red archbishop holding the "holy spear" - now it's his turn to "

Please invite Heavenly Brother Jesus!”
