Chapter 1223 Attack
Before the Jin people fought in the grasslands, the Jin people still focused on infantry battles. Only after they recovered Mongolia did they have enough cavalry.
"Captain, the slave thief is ready to attack." Staff General Cheng Ping came to Pan Yi.
He was not surprised that he gave up his horse and chose to dismount his horse and fought in a staircase manner.
Although the tiger-shaped flag did not have a war with the slave thief with more than a hundred people, the tiger-shaped flag never gave up on its understanding of the slave thief.
For a long time, slave thieves have been regarded as imaginary enemies of the tiger flag. News about slave thieves have been sent back from Liaodong in a steady stream.
At the same time, the tiger flag has installed many secret spies within the sphere of influence of the slave thieves in Liaodong to fully understand the situation of the slave thieves in Liaodong.
Even the Ming Dynasty court probably did not have the tiger flag that deeply understands Liaodong slave thieves.
Pan Yi took away the monocular lens in front of him and said, "It seems that the lord is right. Most of the slave thieves are in the battle of the infantry. Look at the slave thieves' bows and arrows, they are far from what the Mongols ride bows can compare to.
of."
As he said that, he handed the monocular in his hand to Cheng Ping.
Cheng Ping raised his monocular lens and looked towards the slave thief in front of him.
Through the monocular, he could clearly see that the longbows in the slave thief's hands were all hard bows, and they were far stronger than the riding bows used by the Mongols in terms of range or strength.
Once these slave thieves who use longbows are approaching, they will definitely cause damage to the soldiers on their side.
"Tell the artillery team, let these slave thieves taste our truth." Pan Yi ordered the message.
Hearing this, Cheng Ping put down the monocular lens in his hand and said with confusion: "What truth?"
"Sir, the truth is within range." Pan Yi sneered at the slave thief in the distance.
Only then did Cheng Ping realize that it was such a truth.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
More than a dozen four-pound cannons were fired.
One by one, the cannons fell towards the slave thieves in the distance.
The first round was a test shot, and the hit was not high and it did not hurt the slave thief.
Even so, Nizhen and others were shocked.
They had never expected that the convoy of the Tiger Flag even brought cannons. You know, cannons are powerful weapons to defend the city. When they attacked the Ming Dynasty's city, they suffered a lot of losses.
At this time, Nizhen also realized that the soldiers and horses of this tiger-shaped flag were extraordinary.
Ordinary caravan guards cannot carry cannons with them.
"Attack, rush over quickly. As long as they rush closer, their cannons will be useless." Nizhen shouted.
He once faced the Ming army's cannons, and he knew the advantages and disadvantages of the cannons.
I know that although the cannon is powerful, it can be loaded slowly, especially if it reaches the Ming soldiers who are manipulating the cannon, the cannon will not have any threat.
The idea was good, but the reality slapped him hard.
Nizhen rushed forward with hundreds of white armor and less than twenty steps, and the four-pound cannon on the side of the tiger flag was fired again.
This time they were no longer as lucky as before, and half of the dozen hot iron balls fell on their heads.
Several white armor was hit by iron balls and lost their lives on the spot.
However, this is just the beginning, and the iron ball kinetic energy released by the four-pound cannon completely disappeared, it still caused damage to the surrounding crowd.
The first time a solid iron ball hits the target is just the beginning, and the real damage is during the process of several bounces.
Screams rang in Nizhen's ears.
Ni Zhen didn't dare to see the white-armored warriors around who were injured by cannons.
These white armor are elite warriors who have been killed several times, otherwise they would not be qualified to become white armor.
Such elite warriors, like paper in front of the cannon, either die or be injured when they encounter them, and they do not have the ability to defend their armor.
What Nizhen didn't expect was that the time between the shelling of the tiger flag was so short that it completely caught him off guard.
However, it is even more impossible for him to retreat at this time.
A Niulu's white armor retreated like this, and he would definitely be punished by his master when he returned, and he would never be willing to fail, especially to a group of Nikans who had never been taken into consideration by him.
The death and injury of dozens of people did not make these white armor retreat, but instead inspired the fierce side of these white armor.
These white armors passed through the battlefield several times and found that the tiger-shaped cannons left, without Ni Zhen's explanation, they immediately scattered and opened up the distance between everyone.
At the same time, everyone was rushing towards the Tiger Flag Convoy.
There are still hundreds of steps between the two sides. Even the best distance is the archer, it is impossible for him to hurt the people in the Tiger Flag Convoy with his bow and arrow.
More than a dozen four-pound cannons were constantly fired.
The range of bows and arrows is not enough, but it is the best attack distance for a four-pound cannon. It can be said that what a dozen four-pound cannons need to do is to attack the slave thieves in front of them without any concern.
Because the slave thieves had already distanced themselves from each other, the damage of the four-pound cannon to the slave thieves was much lowered.
In addition to the first round of artillery that took away dozens of white armor's lives, the subsequent rounds of artillery were at most several white armored each time.
A Niulu's white armor quickly rushed within a hundred steps from the Tiger Flag convoy.
At this time, only about one-third of the combat power of the two or three hundred white armor was lost, and more than half of the white armor was intact.
The four-pound cannon stopped the shelling.
The musketeers behind the four-wheeled cart began to prepare.
As the slave thieves were about to enter the range of their muskets, their muskets would be the ones who would block the enemy.
The two sides are about sixty or seventy steps apart.
Nizhen stopped with a part of the white armor.
Everyone in the white armor held a longbow in their hands and started hanging arrows, pulling the bowstring, and pointing the arrow behind the four-wheeled cart.
At this moment, there were a burst of gunfire sounds around me.
The distance of sixty or seventy steps is enough for the musket, but the biggest flaw is that it is not enough to hit. However, there are hundreds of musketmen hidden behind the four-wheeled cart, and the muskets in their hands are fired almost at the same time.
If you don’t have enough hits, you can make up for the number.
Even if the hit is at the bottom, as long as the enemy is within range, it can still cause large-scale damage.
Some white armor, who were about to shoot arrows, had not had time to shoot arrows in their hands, was hit by the iron beads fired from the musket.
Even if the white armor with strong will is shot by a musket, even if it is not hit by a vital point, it will still not be able to shoot the arrows in your hand smoothly in pain.
Even if you shoot the arrow in your hand, you will go wherever you are due to insufficient strength and insufficient accuracy.
A round of gunfire sounded, and at least dozens of white armor were hit.
In addition to some deaths on the spot, more white armor had to lie on the ground and wail because of the injury and pain.
The longbow in Nizhen's hand had fallen to the ground and he was shot.
