Chapter 214: Destroying the Red Salt Pond (3)

"Boom boom boom boom..."

Finally, with a deafening roar, when the Habayashi Guards' Crouching Tiger Cannon fired again, the Tatar cannon finally spoke!

"Whoosh whoosh!"

However, while the Yulin Guards officers were waiting in fear, several projectiles fired from in front of the Tatar formation flew almost over the heads of the Yulin Guardsmen, far away from the horses heading towards the rear.

The group smashed it down.

"Fifty more steps forward!"

Regardless of the horses behind him, Wang Bing gave the order to move forward again.

"Three-stage musket fire, fire!"

As the Habayashi Guards advanced again, the distance between the two sides was shortened to about two hundred steps. Although this distance is not the precise shooting distance of a linear rifled bird gun, it can still be achieved under the firing method of a platoon gun.

Make up for some lack of accuracy.

And more importantly, even if ten guns can only kill one Tatar, it is better than waiting for the Tatar bombardment and being unable to fight back.

"Manhai, gather your guns and shoot their generals for me!"

While asking the sergeant to shoot with his musket, Wang Bing once again issued the order to "behead" snipers to Man Hai and dozens of other guards.

Speaking of which, compared to the straight-rifled bird blunderbuss in the hands of ordinary sergeants, the bird blunderbuss in the hands of dozens of guards in Manhai have more complex curved rifling. At this distance, it is barely possible to use concentrated shooting.

A more accurate 'roll call' can now be carried out.

However, compared with straight-line rifling, the processing of this kind of curved rifling is too difficult. Therefore, except for officers above the general flag, only Wang Bing and dozens of personal guards have this treatment.

Of course, at this distance, the shooting of bird cannons only served to reduce the pressure on the sergeants' hearts and strengthen their momentum. The real protagonists were the dozens of squatting tiger cannons under Zhu Dingchen and Zhang Weixian.

No, at a rate of fire far exceeding that of the opposing Tatars, a large number of Crouching Tiger Cannons were fired at once. After the Tatars' cannons fired only two rounds, the Habayashi Guards had already wiped out all their gunners.

.

"Quick, shoot me, shoot me!"

Seeing that one of his side's cannons suddenly misfired, Zhuang Tulai immediately became furious and roared at the Tatar soldiers.

"Sir, the Ming army's cannons are too powerful. All our gunners have died!"

Bite the bullet, a Tatar general reported the report to Zhuang Tu Lai with a grimace on his face.

"Don't the cannons still exist after people die? Load them with gunpowder shells and let me blast them!"

Zhuang Tulai, who was in anger, didn't care about the gunner or not, and he didn't notice the fact that the two rounds of shells that had just been fired failed to hit Habayashi Wei at all, so he directly ordered people to continue.

Load ammunition and fire.

"Gardi, Naqin, the two of you will lead five thousand men each to outflank me from the left and right wings. I won't believe it!"

After giving the order for the artillery to continue bombarding, Zhuang Tulai, who was already red-eyed, did not care about any losses at this time, and directly sent another ten thousand troops to attack the Habayashi Guards.

"This old boy is finally willing to be generous, hahahaha!"

Seeing the two Tatar cavalry attacking the Yulin Guards in a pincer shape, Wang Bing was not angry but happy. He then changed the formation of the Yulin Guards, leaving the front completely to the Tiger Crouching Cannon and those basic weapons.

The Tatars who can't beat themselves are bombarded.

The other sergeants were divided on the left and right, and under the command of the generals, they concentrated on dealing with the Tatar cavalry on both sides.

"These prodigal things are my war horses! How many are left after you have ruined them like this?"

Seeing the two groups of Tatar cavalry preparing to attack his flanks, Wang Bing couldn't help but feel distressed.

It turned out that, I don't know if they were forced too hard, but this time the two Tatar cavalry who attacked the Yulin Guards did not follow their usual charging routine.

Instead, after breaking away from the main force, he only took a few steps faster and then launched a charge without any hesitation outside the effective shooting range of the Habayashi Guard's fire gun.

However, in this way, although the mobility of the war horses can be used to avoid the firearms fire of the Habayashi Guards to the greatest extent, these war horses will be basically useless even if they are not killed by exhaustion after running this trip.

"Fire and hit me hard!"

Seeing that his war horse was destroyed like this, Wang Bing, furious, immediately transferred his anger to these Tatars.

"Bah, bah, bah, bah..."

Basically without his orders, the well-trained Yulinwei opened fire under the command of a group of generals at all levels as soon as the cavalry rushed into the effective firing range.

However, with these Tatars sparing no effort, even though the Habayashi Guards' firepower was very intensive, many Tatars were still able to rush within a distance of nearly fifty steps.

Within this distance, some strong Tatars were able to shoot bows and arrows at the heads of the Yulin Guards. Therefore, after Li Chengming, people in the Yulin Guards also began to be injured one after another.

"Third column, prepare grenades, throw them!"

Seeing that the Tatar cavalry had rushed to a distance of fifty steps, while keeping the two rows of cannons firing, Wang Bing calmly let the third row of Yulin guards throw the grenades.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

As a roar sounded that was quieter but much denser than that of the Crouching Tiger Cannon, the Tatar cavalry who had just rushed within thirty steps, many of them had not yet drawn their bows,

The grenades that had been exploded intensively caused him to fall off his horse, wailing and screaming in agony.

"What the hell, who told you to harm my war horse? Keep throwing mines for me and blow him up!"

Wang Bing, who heard the screams and wails of these Tatars and was angry that they had caused trouble to his war horses, did not take them to heart at all at this moment and just threw a large number of grenades at them without hesitation.



"kill!!!"

Just when Wang Bing was using a grenade to vent his anger at the calamity of his war horse at the hands of the Tatars, he was enduring the bombardment of the Crouching Tiger Cannon and trying to use the cannon to attack the Yulin Guards again.

Then the cry of killing came, but another Yulin Guard, also holding a blunderbuss, slowly pressed over.

Needless to say, this was the arrival of Qi Panzong, who had previously been sent out to block the Tatars' retreat.

"Enter the entire army and kill!!!"

Seeing that the final encirclement had been completed, Wang Bing, who no longer had to worry about the Tatars escaping, finally felt relieved. After stopping the bombardment of the Crouching Tiger Artillery, the whole team cooperated with Qi Panzong's encirclement and pressed the entire army towards the Tatars.

"Sir, what should we do now?"
