Horse hooves rolled, and the Qing army's cavalry charge raised bursts of smoke and dust, as if to show off their force, and rushed towards Li Zhi's Thousand Hands.
Li Zhi asked the soldiers to line up in four deep phalanxes. The phalanxes had no flanks and rears, so they would not be attacked by enemy cavalry from the flanks. The soldiers had trained countless times to organize phalanxes, and they quickly adjusted at this time, which only took one minute.
The formation was changed into a square formation.
Li Zhi also asked the soldiers to spread caltrops in front of the formation, turning the twenty meters in front of the formation into an inaccessible restricted area.
Li Zhi's soldiers had just finished scattering caltrops, and the Tatar cavalry had already rushed a mile away. Li Zhi's soldiers began to load their guns and prepare for battle.
At a distance of four hundred meters, three hundred meters, and two hundred meters, Li Zhi had already clearly seen the face of the Tatar cavalry army, and Li Zhi opened fire with his hand.
Seventy soldiers in the front row fired at the Tatars at the same time. Only a crackling sound was heard, and a cloud of smoke appeared in front of the formation. Seventy guns were fired at the Tatar soldiers two hundred meters away.
, shot hard into the body of the Tatar soldier.
A Tatar vest soldier was shot, breaking through the iron-plated cotton armor he was wearing on the outside, and then breaking through the chain mail he was wearing underneath, and stabbed into his right abdomen. But the distance was too far.
After breaking through the two layers of armor, it lost kinetic energy and only penetrated his body for a centimeter before stopping. He was not seriously injured.
He gritted his teeth and insisted on riding on his horse to charge into the battle.
A Tatar infantryman who was shot was not so lucky. He only wore a layer of armor, which pierced his iron-plated cotton armor, penetrated into his flesh and blood, and beat his lungs into pieces.
It was a bloody mess. The infantry immediately vomited blood after being shot and fell to the ground with a scream.
A Tatar vested war horse was hit. The horse stood up in severe pain and threw the vestd soldier on its back to the ground. The torrent of rolling horses behind trampled over the vestd soldier and trampled him to death immediately.
, trampled him into a bloody corpse.
With just one shot, thirty Tatar infantry were killed on their horses. The corpses of the Tatars who fell to the ground blocked the charge of the cavalry behind them, causing a small chaos.
The Tatars did not expect to be hit by firearms from such a long distance. It was as if they had been punched hard and their morale was stagnated.
However, the Tatars did not lose heart. "Jia Lazhangjing", who led the thousands of "Aliha Chaoha Camp" horse troops, hid behind the Tatars and shouted loudly to boost the morale of the warriors.
The Tatar cavalry soldiers mustered up their courage and continued to rush forward.
At a distance of one hundred and sixty meters, sixty men from the second row opened fire at the Tatars. Another sixty rounds pierced the gap in front of the battlefield and shot into the Tatar team. Everyone in front of the Tatar charge formation fell on their backs, and the two
More than a dozen bullet-hit riflemen fell off their horses like rice cut by a sickle.
Their corpses became obstacles on the way forward, tripping up the two horses behind them and injuring two more cavalrymen on the horses.
The morale of the Qing cavalry was shaken.
Where did this Ming army come from? Why was the firepower of this volley of fire guns so fierce? In just thirty steps, more than fifty warriors had already lost their lives. If you want to rush to the Ming army to shoot arrows, you need to throw arrows.
How many bodies were laid?
And if the distance is too close, will the cavalry soldiers wearing two layers of heavy armor also be killed by the sharp fire guns of this Ming army?
The Tatar cavalry flinched and flinched.
The Tatar Jia La Zhangjing secretly complained, so he grabbed the horn of the trumpeter beside him and blew it loudly.
Hearing the energetic trumpet sound of the Chinese army, the Tatar cavalry became more stable. They suddenly howled together and continued to charge towards the Ming army a hundred steps away.
From a distance of one hundred and twenty meters, another sixty shot came over.
At this distance, the shooting accuracy is already very high. Although it is not as high as the 99% during training, it still has a hit rate of 80% or 90%. And at a distance of 120 meters, even with a two-layer heavy armor vest
Soldiers are also unable to guard against cone-shaped Mini bullets, which can fully crush the internal organs under the flesh of the victim.
A Tatar vest was hit on the left chest, and blood spattered suddenly, spraying the face of the cavalryman on his left. The vest just made a sound and fell to the horse.
A Tartar infantryman was shot in the stomach. He did not feel that he had been hit until he felt his abdomen was so cold that he realized that his intestines had been exposed from the wound. When he saw such a big wound,
Feeling that he was about to die, he lowered his head and fell down from his horse with a thud. The army horse behind him did not slow down and stepped on his chest. He died on the battlefield without saying a word.
Sixty rounds came through the air, and the front row of the Tatar cavalry was suddenly stagnated like a wave hitting the embankment. At least fifty Tatar cavalry were killed.
The bodies of these dismounted cavalrymen became obstacles. The front row of the charging cavalrymen was in chaos again.
The Tatars were stunned by the firepower of the trapped group. Is this a war? This is simply a massacre! In just ten seconds, the Qing army had left more than a hundred corpses on the battlefield. The cavalry no longer moved forward with their heads sullenly.
Rushing, they looked at the Chinese army in panic to see if their Jia La Zhangjing had paid the gold and retreated.
But Jia La Zhangjing responded to them with a horn sound to continue charging.
The cavalrymen in the front row turned pale, but they did not dare to retreat. They could only grit their teeth and continue rushing forward.
Ninety meters away from the Ming army, another row of shots came. The front row of Tatar cavalry fell to the ground like soulless sandbags.
The Tatars rushed forward one after another, rushing forward regardless, and finally rushed to the Ming army fifty steps away. The first row of more than sixty Tatar cavalry raised their bows and arrows and shot at the trapped group fifty steps away.
A rain of arrows streaked across the sky, and seven soldiers from the formation regiment were hit by arrows and fell to the ground screaming.
However, what responded to the Tatars was the fifth salvo fired by the soldiers from the front of the Trap Regiment. From a distance of 60 meters, the 70 soldiers of the Trap Regiment once again stood in the shooting position and opened fire.
Seventy bullets, like seventy gods of death, were fired suddenly into the Tatar team sixty meters away. The Tatar cavalry in the front row fell to the ground one by one as if they were called by name.
Compared with mounted Tatar archers, the hit rate of the hand is much higher. When the hand wants to aim at a target, it only needs to overcome a few kilograms of weight, and the user only needs to aim and pull the trigger. And when you use
When using a bow and arrow, you have to pull back hard and maintain ten times the strength of your hand.
What's more, when riding a horse into battle, it's bumpy and difficult to aim carefully, and you'll just shoot out if you have a rough idea.
The Tatar cavalry in the front row and the soldiers of Li Zhi's encirclement regiment exchanged fire, and the result was a disastrous defeat.
