Chapter 211 War Horse

Twelve artillery fired together.

The people who ran out of the city had not figured out what was going on, and were directly shot by oncoming shells.

If it were the real Guanning Iron Cavalry, they would definitely avoid it in an orderly manner, but among the ten thousand cavalrymen, there were 7,000 rabble, which was another result.

When the shells exploded, these people ran around in tears and howling, without any appearance of an army.

Some officers, including some officers, just wanted to save their lives and did not restrain their soldiers, so they just ran around with the flow.

Little do we know that the artillery favorite is such an opponent. The more chaotic you are, the greater the results of our battle, and the most feared thing is to advance and retreat in an orderly manner.

If that were the case, the artillery would have almost few results in the first moment.

Zuo Menggeng's army is said to have experienced many battles, but in the past, he only fought with Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong's army, and did not fight with the real elite army.

Before I could figure out what was going on, hundreds of cavalrymen were killed. Looking at their blood-faced companions, it would be strange if these mobs were not panicked.

"The Guanning Iron Cavalry is the Guanning Iron Cavalry. Even if it is from the Qing Dynasty, it is different from the people under Zuo Menggeng."

Ye Yun said helplessly with a Western telescope in his hand.

The first half of this team is all under Zuo Menggeng's subordinates, and the second half is Guanning Iron Cavalry.

The others were also bombarded, but the Guanning Iron Cavalry quickly divided into more than a dozen teams and dodged around them, trying to stay away from Zuo Menggeng's cavalry, so that they could advance and retreat in an orderly manner.

After the Battle of Qufu, Wu Sangui asked someone to collect the situation on the battlefield and understand all the situations. Wu Sangui also held a meeting for his subordinates.

He has also made a series of response plans for the combat methods of the Southern Ming army, which are still initially effective now.

However, Ye Yun also realized that only a little dodge would be unable to be foolish in terms of offense, and it would depend on the hard power of both sides.

"General, the Guanning Iron Cavalry was trained by my Ming Dynasty. Why are you so loyal to Wu Sangui and the others?"

A side general said in confusion.

After hearing this, Ye Yun did not make too many explanations, mainly because this explanation was not good for the court.

The Guanning Iron Cavalry was indeed formed by the court, but the court did not spend money to support others. The people who spent money were Wu Sangui and Zu Dashou.

The money from the court was embezzled. If the local generals had not raised the money themselves, how could this elite army be there?

The so-called "whose food eats and whoever listens to the shouts" is about this. Although they were the most elite army of the Ming Dynasty, they did not eat the rice and grain of the Ming Dynasty, but they ate the rice and grain of their own generals. Therefore, wherever their generals want to surrender, they will only follow their generals.

Ye Yun remembered that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had analyzed this matter, and it seemed that there was some ideological education. Thinking of this, Ye Yun looked at some instructors in his army.

This plant is newly added.

There was no such position in the original army.

These people were trained by some schools in Nanjing and had not had strong combat capabilities, but their loyalty to the court was beyond doubt.

They stayed in the army to establish the ideas of this army and unify the ideas of this army. No matter who will command this army in the future, this army belongs to the court, not to a general.

His Highness the Crown Prince is forward-looking!

The bang and bang gunshots brought General Ye Yun's thoughts over.

Luan Qiang's army has already entered the battle.

After the initial panic, Zuo Menggeng's cavalry also found the right target, which was the enemy's artillery.

However, if you want to deal with the artillery of the court, you must first pass the first line of defense. Although Luan Qiang and the others did not build an overly complex defensive position in this area, it is difficult for you to rush through the third row of guns standing here.

The first round of shooting just now directly dealt with the hundreds of cavalry rushing in front.

The cavalry attacked very quickly. When they were shot, many people fell to the ground at an extremely fast speed, raising a lot of dust, which made some cavalry behind them unable to see clearly.

Ye Yun looked at the hit rate with a telescope and nodded with satisfaction.

Among the three elite soldiers that His Royal Highness trusts most, Ye Yun's army may not be the most powerful, but if it comes to hitting the target, Ye Yun's army is definitely the highest.

Of course, there is another data here, that is, when the three armies were training, Ye Yun's army used the largest number of bullets, almost catching up with the sum of the other two armies.

Anyway, His Highness the Crown Prince said that as long as the gunshots are trained, there is no need to waste any bullets. The sharpshooter is fed with bullets. Ye Yun just remembered His Highness the Crown Prince's words.

After three months of training for recruits, soldiers from other battalions fired about 1,300 times.

But Ye Yun reached an astonishing 2,900 times.

Now looking at the shooting accuracy of the first round, I guess His Royal Highness the Crown Prince won’t feel sorry for those bullets.

Ye Yun remembers His Royal Highness the Crown Prince once said, what was the result of the first shot?

The morale of the entire Musket Team is particularly impacted. If the first shot hits high, everyone's morale will become higher and higher. If the hits cannot keep up with the usual training, it will probably be a little discouraged.

Luan Qiang himself was also a sharpshooter. Seeing that his brothers all showed their magical powers, his hands were itchy. He took a long spear next to him and shot him to deal with an officer from Zuo Menggen in the distance and hit him directly in the head.

"The leader is mighty."

The soldiers under his command immediately shouted, knowing that this was already beyond the range, at least one hundred and fifty meters.

"Stop flattering me and stare at the enemies in front of you. I know that your marksmanship is very accurate. You can aim at people. No one can aim at horses. You can only attack differently after seventy meters. If anyone hurts these war horses, don't blame me for being in a bad way."

If you don’t have confidence in your subordinates, no one dares to issue such an order.

It is no secret that the South lacks war horses. The Southern Ming army lacks nothing, but these war horses are missing.

Seeing these war horses on the battlefield, Luan Qiang's saliva was almost coming out...
