027 Three volleys

The crackling sound of gunfire was constantly, but it was very loose. And as the number of shots gradually increased, the white smoke in front of the musketeers of the Vanne City Army gradually formed a thick fog barrier!

They could roughly see the figure of the enemy in the first few shots, but with more and more white smoke, they could no longer see the shadow of the enemy opposite, and could only avoid the gun and shoot at will.

In this way, it became a luxury to kill a flintlock rifle, which had an unreliable hit rate.

Even if the enemy is a dense square formation, it does not mean that you can hit the enemy by just firing forward. After all, firing forward can still shoot into the sky or let lead bullets wash the floor. If the muzzle is slightly tilted, the shots will be a slight difference!

This is also why the flintlock rifle is a smoothbore rifle, without rifle and unstable ballistics, but the flintlock rifle soldiers still place their shoulders close to their eyes when shooting.

Ballistic instability is better than blind fighting!

The result was that as the distance approached, the casualties of infantry soldiers on Li Wei's side did not increase but decreased!

The gunfires were constantly on the other side, like a crackling sound, but fewer and fewer people could actually hit the target.

The infantrymen in the line were constantly falling down, or their limbs were hit and lost, and they fell to the ground to wail.

But the pace of progress is getting faster and faster!

Until the distance was less than 30 steps, a flat and horizontal line of infantry had formed, and suddenly stopped under the command of their respective officers.

With the shouts, one square after another, he took three rows of volleys and pulled the trigger suddenly!

The time for volleys of each square formation is actually a little space. After all, the soldiers of each square formation obey the commands of their respective officers, but the interval is very short, and in the eyes of outsiders, it is similar to everyone's volleys at the same time.

A roar passed by, and the guards of Vanne City who were standing in the thick white smoke suddenly fell down!

The old-fashioned mortars on both wings of the military defending the Vanne city also roared at this time. From time to time, a flowering bullet just fell into the crowd of infantrymen on the line, lifting several unlucky guys out!

However, none of this could stop the determination of the infantry in the line.

The speed of the line infantry's queue changing array is actually very garbage. Li Wei naturally knows that the "basic" marked on the training template in the comprehensive war system he launched is actually the level of line infantry.

It is equivalent to the recruits who have just stepped out of the training camp in this era, or the ones who have only received primary training!

The real combat power of line infantry of this level is actually not much stronger than that of militia, but with the morale of being fearless, it becomes very terrifying.

For example, let these line infantry who are not good at quickly queueing and arraying directly use the close-range three-row bayonet charge tactic that only elites can adapt!

This tactic is very simple. The only thing you need is the courage to go close enough, shoot a round of guns and then rush forward with a bayonet!

If you don’t consider the issue of courage, just a group of militia can do this.

Now the line infantry is doing very well. After the thin horizontal formation three rows of fire, the leading officer suddenly waved his command knife and took the lead to the lead and rushed towards the enemy formation that had just been baptized by lead bullets.

Among them is the Polcha branch.

The three-row volleys and the bayonet charge were not all of the Black Dragon Legion, only about half of them. There was a thin line of battle behind that did not participate in the three-row volleys, so naturally they would not launch a bayonet charge.

They are actually Li Wei used as a team of fault tolerance. If the line infantry that launched the attack ahead was completely wiped out, he could fight another wave!

If the infantry in front of the charge wins, these teams without charge can serve as reinforcements to expand the results of the battle and lay a foundation for victory.

Therefore, the Black Dragon Legion on the battlefield has been divided into two parts at this time. The first part has a slightly larger number of people, all of whom are rushing into the enemy group with bayonets, while the second part stands in place, forming a thin horizontal formation, ready to join the battlefield or shoot a volley at any time.

Puff ~

Boercha slashed an enemy's shoulder with a knife, almost removing most of the opponent's shoulder. When he looked closely, he found that the opponent was actually a teenager!

Boer looked at the other person's tender face and kept vomiting blood bubbles, and his expression couldn't help but feel a trance.

If my child is still alive, he will probably be so old now...

Then, a sharp light flashed in Boercha's eyes, and the brainwashing attributes attached to the total war system suddenly broke out, and Boercha's eyes suddenly became firm.

For the glory of Lord Li Wei, kill!!!

The Vanne City defenders, who were already in different morale, were hit by three close-range volleys. Before they could recover, they were hit by a group of crazy enemies with bayonets.

In just a few minutes, the first battle line in Vanne collapsed!

When the gunners in the front row controlled the old mortars, they saw the enemy who defeated their own battle line in the middle and rushed over, they immediately abandoned the artillery and ran wildly.

The first part of the line infantry bayonet charge was unexpectedly smooth, and the second part of the line infantry naturally did not charge again. They maintained the horizontal formation of shooting in line. The drums of the military band sounded again, stepping forward on the corpses of the enemy and their own people.

At this time, Li Wei in the rear had completely lost command of the front-line troops because everyone had joined the battle. Unless Li Wei asked them to retreat at this time, any order would be to add a burden to the front-line troops.

Naturally, Yoshimoto and his group were stunned on the other side were also shocked. They watched in disbelief as the first battle line with the largest number of troops was easily broken through. Li Wei's infantry chased the defeated soldiers regardless of casualties. Looking around, the infantry line of the Black Dragon Legion under Li Wei's command was already half of the damage!

From beginning to end, the direct field artillery behind the defenders of Vanne did not stop bombarding!

The defeated soldiers of the Vanne City defenders fled wildly. The enemy was so terrible that they had been beaten and lost their courage!

Fortunately, not all the officers in the Vanne defenders were all busy. They also prepared a large number of reserves to form the second battle line.

At this time, the second battle line had crossed the artillery position, and everyone was erecting the flintlock rifle with bayonets, forming a dense horizontal array and stepping forward.

After seeing the square formation that was advancing like a wall, the defeated soldiers hurriedly penetrated the gap between the square formations and ran for their lives.

After following the pursuit, Boer looked at the dense square formation, he glanced at the friendly forces around him who had not stopped at all, and smiled miserably.
