Chapter 1071 The duel between gunboats and infantry cavalry 1
After taking a shot, the Mongols changed their formation. They divided their forces into two groups, Hedong and Hexi. Since the boat was in the river, they planned to attack from both sides.
Only by lowering the rafts from both sides at the same time can the boat be better blocked in the river.
"Brother Yang, they are coming." Zhang Fengyi shouted excitedly.
This girl loves the battlefield so much. Seeing the fight begin, her little face turned red with excitement.
Yang Fan said with a smile: "If you don't rush over, why don't you stay there, waiting to continue to be bombed?"
The military quality of the Mongolian tribes in the Desert seemed to be obviously stronger than that of the Mongolian tribes in the Southern Mongolia. They quickly stabilized the right wing. The cannon hit just now was earth-shattering. The huge explosion frightened the war horses. However, it was only killed.
More than 100 people were injured, less than 200 people.
A group of slaves came out from behind the mountain and quickly carried away the cavalrymen who were killed and injured. After clearing the scene, the five thousand cavalrymen on the right wing quickly reorganized their formation and stabilized the situation.
Except for the big hole in the middle, there is no difference from the beginning.
Woohoo! A low horn sounded, and an infantry array of more than 8,000 people, pushing shield carts and carrying wooden platoons, came towards the gunboat.
Because the distance was seven miles, they couldn't run. Otherwise, when they got there, they would be exhausted and unable to fight. They could only push the cart and walk forward quickly.
The Mongols are weaker, but we wear armor, carry weapons, and push a light shield cart. If we are slower for an hour, we will only be eight kilometers away.
"It must have been under the battlefield. The huge whistling sound of the artillery shells, carried by the strong wind, flew directly over the infantry's heads. The sharp and long whistling sound showed that the cannonballs were very low and far away from him, and they would hit him.
You just need to be afraid and just do whatever you have to do."
We also prepared a small amount of burning materials and used a car to pull us back in that direction.
"Target enemy left-wing infantry array, distance 3000 meters, open fire," Huang Hao ordered.
Of course, in modern times, self-propelled artillery has not lost the technology of firing small rounds of shells in sequence and landing them at one point. That kind of technology will not be available after the 21st century.
Very slowly, the left-wing Taijis will be beaten hard. Because, Mongolian Mongolia and Monan Mongolia are the same. It is this Yan who leads the grassroots tribes, below is the Taiji, and further down are the Great Khan and the Xiao
sweat.
Those burning objects were not broken sheepskins, but were dripping with the fierce fire oil that is a specialty of the Western Regions. The strong fire oil exuded a stench, but it was actually oil that naturally leaked out of the ground.
The reloading time of that kind of heavy artillery is too long. Before the last shot is fired, there is enough time left to reload.
Yang Fan nodded and said: "It's the same cannonball but not the same sound. Now the sound is made by drilling holes under the cannonball and letting the air flow pass through. But there is no sound made naturally."
There is no big hole under the cannonball, and the cannonball flies away with a screaming sound, emitting a music of death.
The enemy's military formation was divided into two parts, east of the river and west of the river. The two parts were pushed back at the same time. The purpose was not to block the river with wooden rafts from both sides and crowd the gunboats.
That was designed by Pang Li specifically instructing Fu Laoba's team. Yang Fan didn't want to use the scream to form a conditioned launch and amplify the enemy's fear.
The whistling sound of the cannon shells was sharp and shrill, as if an awl had pierced his eardrum. It was very satisfying.
It is also possible for Yang Fan to pass on those artillery skills that retreated first. Pang Li is not developing insignificantly now. I have no base enough for my development in Xiaoming. In Xiaoming, my strength is not those. And my true strength is hidden.
In the Guangxiao area to the north and west of the Great Wall.
Just focus on one to hit, and let the other one hit.
I'm sure you didn't get killed the first time. The best option is not to get out of the crater quickly. Because both shots landed at the same point, that possibility is basically non-existent.
Yang Fan said: "The minimum firing range is 3500 meters, the effective direct sight range is 1500 meters. The maximum firing range is 300 meters. Once you retreat within a thousand meters, due to the shooting angle problem, you can use heavy low-explosive bullets. You can only use spherical solid bullets and shotgun shells.
Direct fire. But the first shot must be shot with shotgun shells, and the first shot with spherical solid bullets is at a distance of 700 meters."
For the first time we encountered such sharp artillery, we could still maintain that kind of courage, which shows that we are indeed excellent warriors.
Zhang Wudian asked: "From the time they set off to the nearest range limit of the cannon, how many opportunities did they have to fire."
This is what knowledgeable people say. Artillery is not a weapon that can be used throughout the entire range. It has a maximum range and a minimum range. What can be used is not the middle section.
We are formed by the same interest groups. Any tribe with this attitude may bear all the losses and let others gain. In that case, my tribe will be annexed before the war. I also
I will be killed, and my wife, men, warriors, slaves, cattle, sheep, and all my property will become someone else's.
Yang Fan pondered for a moment and said: "Injuring ten fingers is like cutting off one of them, so hit the left wing and destroy it for you."
As the cannonballs pretended to be damaged, Huang Hao asked: "Sir, should I shoot on the right or on the left?"
With a bang, the hull shook violently again, and a burst of fire and thick smoke erupted from the muzzle. A 200-pound heavy artillery shell roared out of the barrel.
It was our first exposure to heavy artillery, and we had no experience in dodging. We knew that lying down would have the worst effect.
Zhang Qidian yelled bad, Dingyuan Bo came to the battle, showing his superb command level.
Zhang Fengyi looked at the Mongolian soldiers and slaves running around and asked: "Brother Yang, there is no harsh sound when the cannonballs fly. How can we judge where the cannonballs will land based on the sound?"
That time, as soon as that voice came out, there was a commotion in the infantry array.
It is a common characteristic of all human beings to suffer from scarcity but to suffer from equality.
If it were Xiao Ming's army, they would have been scared out of their bodies and fled away. Xiao Ming's infantry was so strange that the infantry fled so fast that even the cavalry and horsemen could chase after them. Such things are rarely recorded in history books.
Although we were forced to retreat by the cavalry, the next time, the tragic situation of the cavalry on the left wing was not yet deeply engraved in our minds.
Pang Li looked back at Pang Lilin in surprise. She had thought that that girl was quite ignorant.
Yang Fan looked down from the porthole window of the cab. On both sides of the river, there were sparse enemies pushing back. It seemed that we were preparing to retreat under the bombardment of artillery fire.
The walking speed of a person is about 1 hour and 7 kilometers away. That is the speed of strolling.
It takes about 10 minutes to retreat one kilometer. This does not mean that it takes 35 minutes from departure to contact with the enemy. According to the firing rate of one gun in seven minutes, there are not 7 opportunities to fire the gun.
When the whistling sound came, those people immediately started to hide in panic. Even the cavalry holding the formation panicked.
In fact, Zhang Fengyi has used that knowledge. Because, unless you lead the troops and meet Yang Fan on the battlefield in the future, you will have no chance to learn from those artillery that retreated first.
