The soldiers in the Beijing camp can easily use it with one hand, and with the other hand, they can hold the weapon and wait for the opportunity to kill.
These Mongolians from Qinghai have very high basic fighting qualities.
As soon as they met, they were greeted by a hail of arrows. If they were other inexperienced soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, they would definitely be killed or wounded. The rest fled in fear, and these people could rush over directly.
But Jingying is a tough place.
They fought all the way and were very familiar with the Mongols' tactics.
As soon as the two sides came face to face, the Mongols fired a barrage of arrows. The entire Jingying camp immediately hid behind their shields. They were all moving very quickly.
Then six three-eyed muskets stretched out from the shoulders of the shield, bang bang bang! There was a burst of gunfire, and eighteen lead bullets were fired at the broken soldiers on the opposite side.
Jingying was not a kind person either, so they immediately retaliated.
More than a hundred soldiers were routed, and ten of them were immediately knocked down. They were immediately stunned by the beating.
I didn't expect the people on the other side to react so quickly.
But it was not over yet. After the three-eyed gun soldiers finished shooting, they immediately retreated. Six steel crossbows flashed out from the shoulders of the shield again, followed by a burst of shooting.
These steel crossbows are lever-loaded, and there is a pulley mechanism inside the receiver. It is very labor-saving. Just pull the lever and the crossbow is cocked.
This design is similar to the lever airguns of the 1980s. The only difference is that the lever airgun has a lever under the barrel, and these crossbows are on the right side of the receiver. This causes the firing rate of these crossbows to be very fast.
There is a long box installed on the receiver, which contains ten crossbow arrows. Every time the lever is wound, a crossbow arrow will fall into the slide rail by gravity. At this time, as long as the trigger is pulled, it can be shot. It is almost semi-automatic.
of general.
The six crossbowmen immediately began firing continuously.
Their skills were very skillful. Pull the lever on the right side of the receiver back to cock the crossbow. After shooting, the lever bounces back to the front of the receiver. Then pull it back and continue shooting.
All ten arrows were shot out in a short time.
The troops of the Yongxiebu tribe on the opposite side were defeated and immediately suffered casualties. But after more than thirty people were killed or wounded, the remaining seventy or eighty people finally rushed forward.
The crossbowman put the crossbow machine on his back, then pulled out his waist knife, inserted the horse stick into the handle of the knife, and formed a long sword. He ducked to both sides of the shield to serve as the two wings of the guard.
The six shield soldiers were separated to the left and right, forming an arc. The pike soldiers stretched out their spears between the two shields. The steel forkmen and the gunslinger carrying the three-eyed gun as a heavy weapon followed behind.
The soldiers from both sides finally collided head-on. The spears pierced out like lightning.
These spearmen have almost formed a muscle memory. They practice thousands of stabbings every day until they are almost vomiting. Their spears thrust with such speed and accuracy that they almost hit the target in the blink of an eye.
The enemy obviously didn't have time to react. They didn't know that the opponent could stab the gun so fast.
Six enemy soldiers were directly pierced, and the spear tip retracted at a touch. They quickly pulled it out and pulled it back. Before other enemies could react, the six steel forks were thrust forward again.
These three-pronged steel forks were extremely wide and directly blocked the enemy's advance, and their scimitars were also blocked by the steel forks. At this time, the Pu swordsmen took the opportunity to step forward and swung their Pu swords as if they were attacking the enemy.
The shape of these steel forks is somewhat similar to the forks used by security guards today, making it easy to restrict the opponent's movement.
These simple knives are heavier than ordinary waist knives, and they also have a long wooden handle made of a horse stick, which acts as a lever. If the knife hits the enemy, if it hits the arm, it will be cut off directly. If the hit is
Shoulder, it will break through the leather armor and directly cut off the collarbone and shoulder bone.
Even if you take advantage of your own relatively short stature and directly use the knife to look at the opponent's knees, it is also very useful. The opponent is wearing leather armor. There is no protection for the knees and calves at all.
Zhao Youzhong is better at playing with the Pu Dao than anyone else. Not only is he good at chopping, he is also good at assassinating with the Pu Dao.
He saw a strong man like an iron tower rushing towards him, swinging his scimitar and slashing hard. But then he was directly stuck by the fork, pushing his scimitar and arm upwards.
When he saw an opportunity, he immediately took advantage of his short stature. With a sliding shovel, he rushed in front of the strong man. He raised his wrist and stabbed the strong man on the opposite side in the throat with a simple knife.
Puff! The blade of the knife directly pierced the throat. The blade penetrated for more than ten centimeters and almost cut off half of the neck from the side. The carotid artery spurted out blood.
The strong man's mouth was full of sounds, but he couldn't shout.
Zhao Youzhong twisted his wrist, turned the knife head over, widened the wound, and then pulled it out.
The strong man who looked like an iron tower knelt down with a plop.
Zhao Youzhong swung his sword with his backhand and chopped off his huge head.
At this time, a confrontation killed the group of soldiers and completely destroyed them.
At first, the three-eyed gunman killed one, and then the crossbow arrows killed more than thirty. After the fighting began, these Ming soldiers used shields and forks to defend and restricted their range of movement. Spears and knives took the opportunity to assassinate and chop.
kill.
In the blink of an eye, more than thirty people fell down. The remaining fifty people turned around and ran back.
Seeing the enemy running away, the team immediately pursued them.
In other parts of the battlefield, small teams of Beijing troops were everywhere fighting against the defeated troops.
In the Beijing camp, at least three people form a triangle formation and act collectively.
The triangle formation is the smallest formation for Beijing infantry combat. By turning around collectively, the attack direction can be changed instantly in any direction. At the same time, three people back to back can provide sufficient cover for each other. They can attack in any direction and prevent sneak attacks from any direction.
's descendants.
These triangular formations made people unable to make a move for a while.
And the battle group, where the entire team fought as a whole, exploded with even more terrifying lethality.
Shields, long and short weapons were alternately used for cover, making it impossible for the Mongolian scimitar to break through for a while. The steel crossbow and three-eyed blunderbuss were dealt a round of damage if they got the chance.
When Zhao Youzhong and others encountered this group of people, they were defeated in a relatively large group. In other directions, the Mongols completely dispersed. The pursuers in the Beijing camp fought in groups of three.
According to Yang Fan's instructions, this is the minimum formation and must not be further dispersed. If someone is killed, they must automatically combine with other triangle formations encountered.
Beijing soldiers wearing plate armor chased groups of defeated soldiers. In the wasteland in front of the North City, amid the raging fire, there were soldiers from both sides hacking and killing each other everywhere.
Jingying's physical fitness and fighting skills are not as good as these Mongolians. However, Jingying's advantage lies in plate armor.
These plate armors are light in weight and have almost no loopholes in protection. It is difficult for the Mongolian scimitars to cut through them. When killing each other, the Mongolians wearing leather armor suffered a big loss.
