After a battle, there were still more than 2,000 people left in the Baiyue army, which was almost five times the number of the Duke's Guards. Moreover, the Baiyue army was famous for being good at fighting in mountains and jungles. The Yuantian camp in the sky was now
I was really worried about my fellow brothers on the ground.
Just two miles away from the camp, the 500 Guards sent a team of 100 people, lined up in front of the formation. These 100 people were also the only 100 people in the Guards equipped with muskets.
In this battle, Su Yin made it clear that he wanted to test his design results in all aspects from the air, ground, defense, offense, etc.
One hundred musketeers on the ground delayed the opponent's offensive in the form of volleys of guns. The only difference was that after completing the defense, they did not need to exchange positions with their companions in the second row, but only needed to load bullets from the breech.
Okay, this is probably the only thing Su Yin is proud of.
When ten rounds of bullets were fired, the musketeers retreated automatically and began to dissipate heat and clean the guns. At the same time, the remaining Baiyue army had entered the range of broad-feathered arrows. The predecessor of the Duke's Guards was the Prince Yue.
A group of Qin troops assigned to Su Yin usually used the standard wolf fang arrows issued by the Qin army.
The arrow cluster of the Wolf Fang Arrow is equipped with barbs and fluted blades. When it is shot into the human body, the fluted blades can exaggerately cut human tissue, while the function of the barbs is to ensure that after the arrow is shot into the enemy's body, there is basically no possibility of pulling it out.
.
This kind of weapon makes people shudder on the battlefield, but one flaw is that the range is too short. It often flies less than a hundred steps before the arrow begins to lose power. After reaching a hundred and fifty steps, it basically starts to fall to the ground.
.
Therefore, Su Yin also modified the equipment of the Guards. Today's Guards are the only army in the battle sequence of Dingxi that are equipped with both wolf-tooth arrows and broad-feathered arrows.
Stability, range, and destructive power, use whichever one you want. This is the so-called pragmatism advocated by Su Yin. However, in fact, the reason why Su Yin dared to ask the Guards to carry two types of arrow clusters at the same time was not
This does not apply to the first, seventh, and ninth-third main battle corps, and the contents are worth pondering.
The so-called Guards are to protect the Duke. This kind of army has more personal attributes and the corresponding political tendencies are relatively weak. The first, seventh and ninth legions are all main battle units. The characteristics of these troops are
The chief officers are former officers of the field forces of Da Qin and Da Liao. Such people can usually put a smile on their faces and speak kindly, but it is almost impossible for them to put aside their troubles and fully integrate with each other.
possible tasks.
At this time, the guard's quiver on his waist was divided into two parts by a piece of leather. One part contained slender broad-feathered arrows. At this time, the opponent was far away from here, so the infantry officer chose the long-range and high-stability option.
of broad-feathered arrows.
"Everyone is ready, cock the broad-feathered arrows! Aim at the target and release!"
The power of broad-feathered arrows has been demonstrated many times. Whether it was Tang Zhencang, Dingnan Field Army or later the Baiyue Three Cities Self-Defense Force, they all suffered heavy losses from broad-feathered arrows. Now after the broad-feathered arrow is shot, those Baiyue Arrows will
Not many of the Vietnamese army fell down, and they were still charging forward.
The officer even suspected that he was dazzled. The broad-feathered arrows were said to be able to penetrate even iron plates, so why didn't they shoot down these Baiyue barbarians?
