095 Fire suppression
"Damn it, God, he must be taking a nap now!"
Captain Wright looked at the soldiers who were rebels in the wilderness opposite Levi, and shot with muskets so that they could not raise their heads behind the chest defense line fortification, or did not want to raise their heads at all, and couldn't help but start to arrange the God who was praying...
If it weren't for worrying that God heard his arrangement, Captain Wright even wanted to blame God for fighting with a female angel...
As the saying goes, the more people you see, the more devotion you feel about your faith becomes, Captain Wright belongs to this type of person.
Before participating in the American War of Independence, he was a "good man" who came from a civilian family and believed in God's flawlessness.
After returning from the North American continent, Captain Wright believed that God must be blind!
As Captain Wright stared at the wide-eyed eyes, the team that Li Wei rebels pressed forward, with accurate marksmanship, was less than 80 meters away, and the defenders behind the fortifications only knew that they were holding muskets and shivering.
The brave people in the defenders often "return" the bodies after they get up and shoot...
The enemy's shooting skills on the opposite side were so accurate. Captain Wright suspected that Carl gathered all the people with good shooting skills together, and sent him to bully the recruit!
But how many people did Li Wei rebels have in total?
There are thousands of sharpshooters who are pressing up...
After completing the firepower suppression, the rhythm of the attack becomes extremely simple.
Staying behind holding a monocular lens, Major General Carl's mouth, seeing this scene, a smile that was rightfully grinned.
If you are loyal to Lord Li Wei, you will naturally become invincible and invincible!
While the musket suppressed the opponent, a mortar with a very potent range was carried up.
Although the mortars of this period and the later mortars were both curved and parabolas, they were completely different objects. Not only did the range be close, but the accuracy was not good.
Therefore, if you want to use the parabola to increase the hit rate, you can only lift the mortar to a distance similar to the position where the musketeer stands, so as to ensure that most of the shells fall into the enemy group after the fortification, rather than flying to an inexplicable place...
However, these mortars that were popular throughout Europe in the last century also have an advantage.
It is light enough that two or three people are carrying it and there is no problem at all. It is also very simple to arrange it. It is placed on the ground and it is easy to fiddle with it. Even the recoil is not necessary to consider. Due to structural problems, the recoil is transmitted to the ground below.
This saves a lot of effort and time than the field guns when setting up positions.
A mortar cannon was arranged behind the horizontal formation of the guard infantry who was responsible for fire suppression, and then a round of volleys were fired at the same time!
This time, the defenders behind the chest fortification finally couldn't hold on!
If the musket suppresses them, they will basically save their lives as long as they shrink their heads, but the parabola mortars blooming bullets are really falling by their side!
As long as you get closer, you will be bruised by the explosion of air waves and some small objects. Death is a relief at this time!
Why was the bastion defense system eliminated by continental China?
It is because the mortar cannon and the flowering bullets, under the mathematical geometry arrangement, the defenders in the bastion defense system will be as if they are suffering in the Avici Hell.
A defender with a lack of firm fighting will be unable to withstand surrender when facing the enemy's mortar cannon shooting.
"This... is so close to using a mortar...
The soldiers of the Li Wei rebel army were indeed a group of madmen!
Are they not worried that the stray bullet will eject the flowering of the mortar and then cause internal explosions?
Well, that's right, the soldiers behind the chest defense line were pressed so hard that they couldn't lift their heads, and there weren't many bullets to fight back..."
Captain Wright touched the cold sweat full of his forehead and began to look around. After seeing Captain Wright's changes, his body tightened.
According to his years of experience following Wright, the situation should be at the pace of collapse, so his parents are looking for the most convenient and safest escape route!
When escaping, you don’t need to run faster than your enemies, just run faster than your teammates. In addition, you must not rush to the front before approaching your second front.
Although the law does not blame the public in the collective collapse, everyone knows the principle of shooting the first bird. If the superiors vent their anger, they may choose the unlucky guys who take the lead in escaping back and vent their anger!
Although Captain Wright is afraid of death, because of this, he cherishes this official skin extra. The captain's ability to save lives is many times higher than that of the private!
When he was a private in the American War of Independence, it was a life-long torture. Captain Wright didn't want to be beaten off before the war was finished.
On the battlefield where the opponent was so cruel, Captain Wright felt that the probability of a soldier was less than half...
Look at what kind of bear soldiers who are now staying behind the chest defense fortifications have been blown into by flowering bullets!
Facing the explosion of flowering bombs everywhere, many defenders stood up from the fortifications in panic, ran around, and then became an excellent living target for guard infantrymen...
Of course, among these musketeers, the most eye-catching ones are the soldiers who have been trained as sharpshooters by the full-scale war system. These soldiers are the real shots and heads.
Their hit rate is one level higher than that of the Guards Infantry, and they have reached the peak of ordinary soldiers in this world!
Guard infantry kills enemies by relying on firepower to suppress them, while sharpshooters kill enemies by relying on point shooting!
This is the gap!
Moreover, at such a close distance, sharpshooters do not need to use the front-mounted rifle gun with complex and slow loading. They all use the smoothbore gun, but they are just the hand-made high-precision smoothbore gun.
The so-called high precision means to minimize the deviation rate of the smoothbore gun as much as possible, and it is still incomparable to the front-mounted rifle gun.
But the advantage is that the loading speed has increased!
At a distance of 100 meters, the accuracy gap between this high-quality smoothbore gun and the front-mounted rifle gun is still within the acceptance range of the sharpshooter.
The sharpshooters under Li Wei were all dispersed and entered various troops to serve as straitors and mountain infantry.
Sharpshooters usually carry two types of muskets, one is a front-mounted rifle and the other is a high-quality smoothbore rifle.
Of course, when you go to the battlefield, you will only carry one type according to combat needs. After all, the muskets of this era are not light.
As for the guard infantry, although they only carried one musket, each of them brought different numbers of throwing thunder!
