Hearing this, Sun Chengzong's re-understanding of the Tiger and Leopard Army can no longer be described as the four words "appreciating one's eyes".:.../

Because the Tiger and Leopard Army in front of us brought too much shock to us.

All kinds of shocks were shocked one after another, and there was no time for myself to digest these shocks.

So, after listening to what Staff Zhou said, Sun Chengzong, who was already accustomed to this shock, had only changed his solemn expression and asked: "There are even more powerful firearms... Now it seems that I am going to come here today to open my eyes..."

"Tell me, what kind of powerful firearm is it that can eliminate so many Mongolian cavalry in the field battlefield, and even the powerful Later Jin general Dorgon died at your hands."

Staff Officer Zhou did not answer directly, but whispered a few words to his subordinates behind him.

Finally, he replied to Sun Chengzong: "Sir, the specific power of these two firearms is not clear. The Xiaguan has already made people perform in front of you. Only by witnessing it with your own eyes can you truly feel the great power of these two firearms."

While speaking, ten musketeers had already stood up.

At the same time, dozens of straw men also stood thirty steps in front of the ten musketeers with the unique attack formation of the Ming army.

Under Sun Chengzong's gaze, ten musketeers suddenly took out a black iron ball with a wooden handle from the bag at their waist.

After holding the iron ball on the wooden handle in your hand, take out the fire fold and ignite the fuse that extends from the end of the wooden handle.

As a burst of white smoke began to emerge from the wooden handle of the iron ball, the ten musketeers seemed to have agreed, and at the same time shook their arms and threw the iron ball that had already emitted white smoke at the straw man.

The iron ball drew a beautiful arc in the air and fell steadily among the straw man.

Just as a trace of doubt appeared on Sun Chengzong's face, a series of deafening explosions suddenly reached Sun Chengzong's ears, which scared Sun Chengzong, who was not prepared at all.

Under Sun Chengzong's gaze, ten fireballs mixed with a large number of black smoke rose from the ground with the explosion, covering the straw man scattered in the area where the iron ball landed.

As the smoke slowly dissipated, the tragic situation in the explosion area suddenly appeared in front of Sun Chengzong.

Dozens of densely packed straw men were all shocked to the ground amid the explosion just now.

Not only that, more than half of the grass man had been blown to pieces. As for those intact grass man, they were not much better. Because Sun Chengzong found a few pieces of grenade fragments that were still steaming from each grass man.

If the one who stood here was not the straw man, it was the Ming Dynasty official army. The tiger and leopard army threw out not ten grenades, but thousands of them white. What kind of tragic scene would appear on the battlefield...

Sun Chengzong dared not imagine or assume...

At this moment, Staff Zhou, who was standing beside him, reminded him in a very timely manner.

Lord Sun, this is a new type of firearm created by our Tiger and Leopard Army. Our Grandmaster calls it "wood-handled grenade"...

After testing, the kill radius of this grenade is 1 zhang. That is to say, with the grenade landing location as the center, the enemies within a range of 1 zhang around are all within the range of grenade killing and can be killed.

At present, this grenade has been installed on a large scale in the Tiger and Leopard Army and all local garrisons...

According to the requirements of the Grandmaster, after the assembly is completed, each musketeer must carry at least three grenades on his body...

Staff Zhou had just introduced the grenade, and a burst of rapid footsteps had already reached Staff Zhou's ears.

Looking in the direction of footsteps, dozens of artillery soldiers carrying mortar components and shells were lined up and slowly jogging towards their location.

Seeing this, Staff Zhou didn't care whether Sun Chengzong was shocked by his introduction just now. He pointed to the artillery platoon that was getting closer and closer to him and continued to introduce himself.

"Mr. Sun, those dozens of brothers are the artillery platoons under each musket battalion of the Tiger and Leopard Army."

"In the Tiger and Leopard Army, each artillery platoon is equipped with three light mortars developed by our Tiger and Leopard Army itself."

"Next, let Lord Sun see the power of this light mortar."

When Sun Chengzong looked in the direction of Staff Zhou's finger, he could hardly believe his eyes.

Sun Chengzong was a man who served as a military commander and commanded the Ming border army. He was very aware of the various artillery equipped by the Ming army.

In Sun Chengzong's eyes, it is the lightest tiger cannon equipped by the official army. On the battlefield, two people have to carry it to walk. The cannon equipped by the Tiger and Leopard Army in front of him can actually be carried and run away... This picture directly tells Sun Chengzong that the cannon equipped by the Tiger and Leopard Army is very light and very easy to transfer.

Dozens of gunners carrying artillery and shells, but no matter what Sun Chengzong thought.

As soon as he rushed to twenty steps away from Sun Chengzong, he stopped and began to skillfully set up guns.

Their subsequent gun-mounting process was once again beyond Sun Chengzong's expectations.

Dozens of gunners did not dig the gun positions they imagined. Instead, they assembled artillery on the flat ground with a bunch of mortar components that they had never seen before.

In just a blink of an eye, a mortar that was completely different from what he saw, supported by a tripod and raised its black holes and appeared in front of Sun Chengzong.

Seeing this, Sun Chengzong was shocked by the very light weight and unique shape of the mortar, but also shocked the assembly and preparation speed of this artillery.

In Sun Chengzong's perception, the lightest-weight tiger cannon will take at least one cup of tea to be assembled and ready for launch. If it is a more powerful Folang machine and the Red Cannon, it will never be put into battle without a little half an hour.

As for the artillery in front of you, three artillery cannons were assembled in just the blink of an eye.

On the real battlefield, time is life, victory or defeat... Although it is not clear about the specific power of this kind of artillery, his preparation time has already overwhelmed all artillery equipped by the imperial government army.

If the Tiger and Leopard Army really turn against the court in the future, the official army's artillery has not been set up on the battlefield where the two armies meet. The Tiger and Leopard Army's artillery is ready for battle and begins to fire shells at itself.

Faced with this result, Sun Chengzong directly showed a dead expression on his face.

However, dozens of gunners gathered around the mortar, no matter what Sun Chengzong thought.

The mortar had just assumed that it had three fixed-load flowering bullets, and under the gaze of Sun Chengzong, it was stuffed into the cannon chamber from the muzzle.

Insert the fuse from the tail of the gun barrel and ignite the fuse with a torch...

After a series of very skilled movements were completed, three dull roars were heard to Sun Chengzong's ears.

Then, Sun Chengzong saw three balls of red flames mixed with a large amount of black smoke ejected out of the mortar's black hole muzzle.

As for the three flowering bullets wrapped in flames, they flew into the sky with a whistling sound.

Then, at a speed visible to the naked eye, it flew towards the grass man more than a hundred steps away.

Like the grenade that had just exploded, the black shells had just passed through the sky and fell to the ground. Three more violent explosions came to Sun Chengzong's ears.

Three orange-red flames that rose into the air quickly spread around with the blooming point of the blossoming bullet. They enveloped the grass people scattered around.

"Blooming bullet, such a small cannon can actually fire flowering bullets, and it can hit the target with one shot..." Seeing this, Sun Chengzong, who was shocked again, couldn't help but exclaim from the bottom of his heart.

And just before he could react from the shock, the second fixed-loading flowering bullet was loaded into the barrel by the gunner.

Insert the fuse, light the fuse with a torch...

Then, the second round of dull shelling sounds reached Sun Chengzong's ears.

In less than a blink of an eye, three shells that drew a beautiful arc in the air followed and landed among the dense grass man and exploded...

Round after round…

When Sun Chengzong truly reacted from the shock and quickly walked towards the artillery position.

Three mortars have shot twelve flowering bullets at targets more than a hundred steps away.

After carefully looking at the mortar that was emitting heat in front of him, Sun Chengzong immediately focused his attention on the platoon leader who was commanding the three mortars and asked the platoon leader.

"This brother, I want to know the specific power of this kind of artillery..."

At the warning of Staff Zhou, the platoon leader spoke after only a brief contemplation: "Sir, at this time, my Tiger and Leopard Army is equipped with a light mortar at the first level of the battalion, with an effective range of fifty steps to one hundred and fifty steps..."

"Because of the use of flowering bullets, the effective killing radius of this mortar is one battle and five..."

"In addition, the mortar uses fixed-load flowering bullets. The time it takes for ordinary artillery to shoot one shell. The light mortar we equipped can shoot two lead shells..."

Sun Chengzong nodded and asked thoughtfully: "Light mortars, that is to say, in addition to the artillery in front of you, you also have heavy mortars..."

"Yes, sir..." the platoon leader affirmed loudly.

"In my Tiger and Leopard Army, the battalion is equipped with a light mortar platoon, three light mortars... the regiment is equipped with a medium mortar team, nine medium mortars... the division is equipped with a heavy mortar battalion, and twenty-seven heavy mortars."

"The range of medium-sized mortars is between one hundred and three hundred steps, and the effective killing radius of flowering bullets is two battles. The range of heavy mortars is between two hundred and fifty steps and the effective killing radius of flowering bullets is three zhang..."

Hearing this, Sun Chengzong was already shocked and could not speak.

As a former veteran on the battlefield, although Sun Chengzong had never seen the Tiger and Leopard Army fight. However, through his understanding of these weapons, a tactic and tactic that he had never been exposed to had appeared in his mind...

When the enemy attacked the Tiger and Leopard Army, when they were far away, they would use flowering bullets to explode... if they were a little closer, they would use flintlock guns to shoot... if they were a little closer, they would use grenades to explode...

Faced with this continuous blow, Sun Chengzong could say with certainty that no matter how fierce the enemy was, he could not hold on, not to mention that his fighting courage was completely inferior to that of the Tartars' official army.
