Chapter 1232 A clean escape(1/2)
"What is this?"
At the same time, Fan Cang, the general of the border army, looked horrified.
His soldiers marched forward bravely, without fear of life and death, and finally rushed to the enemy's position. But at the last distance of about fifty steps, a group of enemy soldiers suddenly appeared.
They lined up in three lines, using a long barrel-shaped weapon that seemed to be able to light fire...and then it became what it is now.
I don’t know what was being hit, I could only hear a dense sound, and then a large number of people fell down like wheat being cut!
Too fast!
He didn't even have time to react, and he didn't even know how he died.
The soldiers in the rear continued to charge and kill under the influence of inertia.
At this point, one round of shooting has ended.
"Change!"
The commander of the musketeers gave the order.
After the first row shoots, switch to the second row to shoot. The staggered position does not affect the position. When the second row shoots, the first row and the third row switch positions, and go to the rear to load gunpowder. After the second row completes shooting, switch to the third row.
Three rows of shots.
The second row exchanges positions with the first row to replenish ammunition.
After the third row has finished shooting, the first row will then fire. This greatly shortens the interval, which just makes up for the low efficiency of fire blunderbuss shooting and ensures continuous firepower output.
This is three strikes.
Such repeated rotation can bring terrible lethality...
Just like this, dense sounds sounded one after another, and enemies fell every moment.
The distance is obviously very short, but it seems like a gap in the sky. We can only look at each other but cannot cross it!
There were piles of corpses everywhere.
Of course the border troops are brave. They are not afraid of death, but they are so afraid that they don’t even know why?
What's this?
Is it a hidden weapon?
It actually has such power?
How can flesh and blood resist? Anyone who rushes to the front will be shot and fell.
Continuous attacks give them no chance to react, which brings psychological pressure to people far beyond the lethality itself.
Just now it was a hail of artillery fire, and now it is a hail of bullets.
Zhu Wen felt backward again, and it was extremely strong.
What is this?
Why is it so easy to kill someone?
He watched helplessly as his own troops' casualties continued to decrease, while the enemy's troops... no, they hadn't even touched the enemy's troops until now.
"That's..."
"Father, the enemy is trying to escape!"
Zhu Zhen suddenly shouted that they were on the battlefield. Because they were at a high place and far away, they could vaguely see that there were a large number of horses and carriages on the enemy's side, as if they were pulling something and running north.
"The black one should be the kind of weapon that can emit thunder!"
Zhu Zhen screamed in shock.
He could only vaguely see it, but he could deduce it.
"quick!"
"Rush over and leave them behind!"
"Cavalry, let the cavalry go out, and you can also use archers!"
Zhu Zhen's tone was urgent.
As long as you can plunder the enemy's weapons, no matter how high the price you pay, it will be worth it!
Moreover, now that the enemy has dispatched such an army, it cannot be stopped by manpower and can only be charged with cavalry.
You can also use archers!
Fan Cang slapped his head. He was so confused just now that he didn't think about it at all.
"Archer!"
"Send the order for the archers to shoot!"
He made urgent arrangements.
At the rear, a large group of cavalry was dispatched and charging straight towards us!
They are just ordinary cavalry. At this time, Zhu Zhen is reluctant to let the Tianxiong Army come on stage, but the momentum is quite large...
"Your Majesty, the enemy cavalry has dispatched, should we withdraw?"
Lou Jian, the commander of the Royal Forest Army, came over to ask for instructions.
His Majesty is personally in charge and on the front lines.
In front of them is the Liang army whose head is hard to see at a glance, with infantry in front and cavalry behind.
The distance is already very close, if you are not careful, you will rush over.
What should you do if your Majesty makes a mistake?
However, His Majesty remained as steady as a mountain and did not panic at all.
The enemy cavalry is dispatched and can rush in very quickly, even the musketeers can't hold it back.
"Send the order, retreat!"
Guan Ning looked at the situation and gave the order directly.
There was continuous artillery fire and a hail of bullets.
After this attack, Liang Jun suffered heavy casualties. Guan Ning also admitted that the border troops in this town were indeed the elite of Liang Jun.
Ordinary armies, faced with this situation, would have collapsed long ago, while the border troops were still charging.
The Musketeers are Guan Ning's secret weapon.
Fireguns can only be regarded as the standard weapon of the firearms battalion, and they are not considered high-tech items. It has been eight years since the establishment of the firearms camp, and even a firegun cannot be made. Isn't that a joke?
It’s not difficult to make!
The difficult thing is to train a group of soldiers who can use it skillfully.
In order to deal with this war, he used all his trump cards.
Liang Jun had started shooting with archers, and the cavalry also came around from the other side.
Every musketeer is extremely valuable.
If there is any risk, avoid it.
"Cover the retreat, seize the time."
As Guan Ning spoke, he got on his horse, but he was quite decisive.
"Your Majesty, there are still many artillery pieces that cannot be transported in time."
The commander of the firearms camp hurriedly came over to ask for instructions.
It is very difficult to set up a gun array, and it is even more difficult to transport these iron lumps.
The musketeers come out to kill the enemy first, and then provide cover.
They have dual identities.
He is both a gunner and a gunner, and can switch between them at will.
Now the enemy's attack is rapid and violent, and they are fighting for their lives even if they suffer casualties, so all the artillery cannot be transported away...
"If it doesn't work out, just leave it here."
Guan Ning waved his hand casually.
"Ah, then leave it to the enemy."
Yan Wu, the commander of the firearms battalion, said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, we can fight with the enemy to buy time for the artillery delivery."
"Nonsense, you are much more valuable than artillery."
Guan Ning is telling the truth. As long as the technology is mature and the materials are sufficient, it is easy to make an artillery, but it will take a long time to train a skilled person.
"Then the artillery will stay here?"
Yan Wu spoke again: "Otherwise, everything will be destroyed."
To be continued...
