Boom!
The mountain forest has been covered with ice and snow, but in one place, a large open space has been cleared. At this moment, on one side of the open space, there are dozens of rows of wooden figures made of withered grass, wood, and vines, numbering nearly ten thousand.
At first glance, it was so dense that there was no end in sight.
On the other side, there is a group of sturdy soldiers. They are not wearing iron armor, but lighter leather armor. However, in the leather armor, there is a layer of iron mesh made of iron wire, covering key places.
, to protect vital points.
These people, all of them are holding arm-long muskets at the moment. The muzzle of this musket is equipped with a blade, which is used to facilitate hand-to-hand combat when the bullets are exhausted, or when the enemy is in close combat.
In addition, the most attention-grabbing thing about these soldiers is the bullet belts hanging on their bodies.
Two thousand people were now arranged in three rows. The first row was kneeling, the second row was bent, and the third row was upright, forming a gap. This formation directly achieved full coverage of high, middle and low, and two thousand guns fired at the same time.
A magazine contains 30 rounds of bullets, and 60,000 rounds of bullets can be fired in a very short period of time.
In this era, firing 60,000 rounds of bullets is simply a bloody storm that harvests lives. No matter how elite the army is, they will be beaten to the point where they lose their armor and no longer have the will to fight.
The so-called personal bravery, courage, belief, and determination are simply vulnerable in the face of an absolute steel storm.
"kill!"
Han Qing, Zhao Cheng's former personal soldier and now the commander-in-chief of Taiping Camp, shouted violently at this moment.
As for acting, it consumes money. The current inventory of bullets is about 150,000.
As for the bullets, after a year of accumulation, I got close to 200,000 bullets, which were distributed to everyone, that is, 100 bullets per person.
At the top of them, there are three tables side by side, but now, one of them is empty. Wu Qi is seriously ill and is currently recuperating.
Further down, there are the various generals of the three families, and from the seating arrangements and many details, it can be clearly seen that the generals of Wu Qi's line are not taken seriously.
Outside Wucheng, fifteen miles away from Wucheng, a full 200,000 troops are stationed here. If there are Taoists who are good at fortune-telling and look at it with Dharma eyes, they can see that above the military camp, there are tigers and dragons.
, the evil spirit was billowing, soaring into the sky.
On the other hand, in those barren mountains and rivers, powerful military units were often born.
However, this amount is completely enough.
But relatively speaking, the overall quality of the army in the Southern Wilderness is far superior to that in the Central Plains.
In this era, even elite soldiers are likely to collapse once their battle losses exceed 10%, and when faced with mysterious and unknown weapons like firearms, soldiers' emotional thresholds are even lower.
Throughout the ages, in any wealthy place, whether it is a water town in the south of the Yangtze River or a land of plenty, the richer it is, the harder it is for a powerful army to emerge.
Immediately, Zhao Cheng came further behind, and one of the several standing soldiers immediately stepped forward and knelt down on one knee.
On a high wooden platform not far away, Zhao Cheng looked at this scene with a normal expression, while the few people following him all looked horrified.
This continued until the fourth round, when all the straw men a few hundred meters away were smashed to pieces, and no one could be found standing upright anymore.
These two people are both in their early thirties, at the peak of their lives.
It was only then that the two thousand people were divided into groups and took turns doing live ammunition training with real guns.
"Pass my military order, the whole army will be ready for half an hour, and then start heading back to the city!"
This is the case with the 200,000 troops of the three Nanhuang families. Wu Qi has tiger and leopard cavalry, the Feng family also has Sirius cavalry, and the Chen family also has black evil cavalry. It’s just that these three cavalry, the special arms of the Feng and Chen families, are more powerful than Wu Qi’s.
Yes, it's just a little bit different.
At that time, the number of guns was not enough, so that was all.
As the sound trembled, two thousand people immediately opened fire at the same time. Within a few seconds, everyone fired five shots in a row before stopping.
"Gongsun Jin!"
"The mark is on!"
"promise!"
Seeing this scene, Han Qing ordered again.
Because of limited bullets and the wear and tear of firearms, previous training rarely used live ammunition. At the beginning, two thousand soldiers held models carved from stone, adapted to the weight, and arranged themselves in a formation to pretend to fire.
Get familiar with the process.
Compared to China, Southern Wilderness is a bitter and cold place, but the poorer the place, the more ferocious the army is. There is no doubt about this.
"kill!"
As for the remaining two seats, one was seated by Feng Bao from the Feng family, and the other was Chen Qing from the Chen family.
At this moment, in the big tent in the center of the camp, the generals of the army were gathering together to drink.
I finally figured out why this camp was called the Taiping Camp. It was not for the sake of peace in the world, but because once this camp came out, the world would be at peace.
It wasn't until half a month ago that more than a dozen Taoists worked overtime, and the Taoists and craftsmen became increasingly proficient in their skills, and they finally managed to collect two thousand guns.
Along with the smoke and fire, as well as the explosion of bullets coming out of the barrel, among the tens of thousands of straw men in the smoke, the top ten rows were all smashed into pieces, and many of the ones at the back were also mutilated.
Wen Chen is a very clever person. If he doesn't show his strength to them, over time, these smart people will inevitably think too much. If he accidentally does something that crosses the line, Zhao Cheng will have no choice but to kill him.
.
On the high platform, Zhao Cheng suddenly shouted.
…
Behind Zhao Cheng, the current leader of civil servants, Li Tonghai, saw such a magical weapon, and the only thought in his mind was that the world was settled.
Immediately, there was another round of five consecutive shots.
In addition to shooting training, there are also various trainings such as attack, retreat, pursuit, formation changes, etc. This kind of training started as early as March this year, and lasted until September, a full six months.
Living with fellow Qianjia soldiers, practicing day and night, they developed a tacit understanding and adapted to the weapon models in their hands.
At this time, Lin Yi was ordered to defend the city, and the few people who followed Zhao Cheng were all civil servants under his command.
In order to prevent this kind of thing, this show was created.
All dignity and pride are as fragile as paper in the face of the torrent of steel.
However, this is normal. Now anyone with a discerning eye can see that Wu Qi just wants revenge and doesn't think about anything else.
The generals under Wu Qi had also taken advantage of this time to either surrender to Feng Bao or to Chen Qing.
Wu Qi naturally knew about this, or in other words, when he made this decision, he knew that this would happen.
After all, these generals under him all have families and businesses. If Wu Qi can give everyone hope, all the soldiers will naturally be loyal. But in this situation, if they don't find a way out,
Then it is really foolish and loyal.
But when the wine was full, Feng Bao suddenly burst into laughter.
