Landmines: Dig a vertical pit, place the shells in the pit with the warhead facing upwards, remove the safety, cover with floating soil, and bury one mine every 20 meters to ensure the killing range of each mine as much as possible and avoid being killed by the explosion.
.
High-elevation angle bombardment: Hide all the artillery in a mountain col ten miles away. Under the command of Xingtian Camp's flags, constantly correct the angle and orientation, use parabolas to stay away, and try to extend the artillery's attack range.
So this ambush is more like a large-scale military experiment than a war, and these Japanese pirates are the "living targets" in this experiment...
In order to carry out this experiment smoothly and maximize the efficiency of killing enemies, Yan Bing deliberately transferred Qianhu and Sun Wu from the Xingtian camp to his team, making good use of his ability to fly in the air all year round.
Experience has given him precise control of wind direction, wind force, and distance.
"Distance, twelve miles, wind direction, northeast, wind strength, six and a half feet, offset two inches to the left! The muzzle is two feet above the ground! Test fire one round!!" Sun Wu held up the telescope for observation while looking at the person behind him.
The flag commander shouted loudly.
"Swish! Swish!"
Immediately there was the sound of waving colorful flags in the air, and groups of words and numbers were transformed into movements of the flag soldiers one after another, and spread to the ground.
"Two inches to the left——! The muzzle is two feet above the ground——!"
"Two inches to the left——! The muzzle is two feet above the ground——!"
"Move two inches to the left...!"
…………
Shouts were passed to each other among the artillery battalions, and the soldiers in the artillery battalion quickly adjusted the muzzles.
"One group is ready!"
"The second team is ready!"
"The three groups are ready!"
…………
"put--!!!!"
Three hundred artillery pieces fired in succession, a huge sound broke through the sky, and the powerful recoil stirred up bursts of dust. After stimulating this round of artillery bombardment, all the artillery units reloaded and waited for the next round of instructions.
This time...it's different from the past...
The artillerymen were completely unable to observe their targets. They could only regard the sky in the sky as their own eyes, and use the instructions transmitted back to replace their brain's thinking.
And the artillery shells whistling through the air, after flying for more than ten seconds, smashed into the square formation of the Japanese army with almost no warning! Huge red-yellow fireballs rose into the sky one after another, and accompanied by
As countless pieces of corpses and dust slowly fell to the ground, it was not until another ten seconds passed that the sound of the explosion slowly returned from the distance...
Sun Wu carefully observed the scene in the telescope, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
"Okay!!! The first hit! Continue the bombardment! Until the next order!"
………………
"Did you see a ghost today!!?? Fire cannons can hit that far! I don't even know where these shells come from! I am loyal and loyal!! Where did the artillery fire come from! Go and explore! Let the horse go and explore!
!”
At this time, Uesugi Kagekatsu was already out of anger. He had just been attacked by muskets in turn, and he was also bombarded by inexplicable artillery. At this time, he didn't even know where the enemy was or where the artillery troops were. He didn't know how to fight this battle.
Hit!
And the Japanese army, which was already showing a trace of panic, was knocked upside down by the continuous artillery fire! Morale was rapidly disintegrating. If the general did not do something at this time, these Ashigaru soldiers would completely collapse and flee.
, the situation will be completely out of control, and the fleeing front army troops may even disperse the large troops in the rear, causing an "avalanche" like consequences.
If this really happens, then as the commander-in-chief of the former army, Uesugi Kagekatsu, even if he survives, there will only be one result...
That is...caesarean section to apologize...
"The sound of artillery came from due north!! The second and third cavalry teams! Rushing to the north!! Rushing to the north——!!"
Amidst the deafening sound of artillery fire and explosions, Lieutenant General Zhi Zhongxin could only continue to pass on the complete order by roaring hissingly...
"Second Division! Third Division Cavalry! Rushing north——!!"
"Yes! Second Division! Third Division! Follow me!!" As several squad leaders shouted one after another, two cavalry teams of 100 people quickly hit their horses and galloped towards the north! But soon
Soon they were fired upon by musketry from an ambush force on the right wing, killing most of them.
But this scene should not have happened in Yan Bing's original plan...
The reason for the current situation is that Qianhu, Li Wenyou, who was in charge of commanding the right-wing Ironwood Battalion... was completely red-eyed... and rushed to the front of the team alone with a firecracker. Not only did he fail to execute Yan Bing's orders,
Instead, they took the lead in advancing towards the tens of thousands of Japanese troops...
If Li Wenyou continues to insist on going his own way, there will only be one outcome waiting for him and the thousands of soldiers from Tiemu Camp... that is to be completely surrounded by dozens of times more enemy troops... and all of them will be annihilated...
Fortunately... at this time, Yuan Qihe... finally arrived...
Yuan Qihe waved his whip and shouted loudly. After hearing the order and seeing clearly that it was Yuan Qianhu who was riding on horseback, many soldiers from the Ironwood Camp stopped what they were doing and slowly put their hands down.
rifle……
"Da da da... bang——!!!"
Yuan Qihe dismounted and ran quickly behind Li Wenyou. He raised his leg and kicked him to the ground! He raised the riding crop in his hand and raised his hand to greet him! While whipping him, he yelled: "You are so special."
Are you crazy?! You dare to disobey the coach’s orders!! You want to die!! Go and die yourself!! Don’t implicate these more than a thousand brothers!! You idiot! I can’t kill you today!!”
When the surrounding soldiers and households saw this, they quickly dropped their rifles and stepped forward to stop them. It took a lot of effort to separate the two... But at this time, Yuan Qihe could no longer care about so much and struggled to break away.
The crowd pushed and shouted, "Where's Deputy Qianhu!! Deputy Qianhu, come out——!!"
"I'm here! Yuan Qianhu, what are you doing? This is a war..."
"You still know that we are fighting!? What did the commander give during the deliberation? Why don't you quickly lead the troops to retreat behind the minefield! If you don't go, it will be too late!!" Yuan Qihe roared and raised the riding crop in his hand, pointing at it
He climbed up the hills on both sides and continued to roar: "Look! The Japanese pirates on both sides are almost here! Don't hurry up and get out! Just tie that guy Li Wenyou up and put him on my horse! Something happened."
I, Yuan, am responsible!! Hurry!!"
"yes!!"
In fact, Deputy Qianhu had warned Li Qianhu many times that it was time to retreat, but the other party turned a deaf ear to it. As Deputy Qianhu, he had no choice but to lead the troops forward. Now he has a "backbone"
, the situation was finally brought under control, otherwise more than a thousand of them would have died here today.
After a period of chaos, the beaten Li Wenyou was tied up and placed on Yuan Qihe's saddle. Yuan Qihe also got on his horse and led the troops to evacuate quickly, thus avoiding a battle.
An unprecedented tragedy occurred among the Tongshun Army...
