It is unreasonable for the cavalry to charge in the woods. Mi Niang changed the previous chapter and changed the Qing cavalry charge to the infantry charge! I hope everyone understands!
Almost at the same time as the artillery shot was fired, the riflemen of the third column of the Tiger Division fired.
Another eight hundred and fifty rounds of bullets swept across the battlefield. The Tatars who were rushing in front finally waded through the bloody corpses of the Qing soldiers, and immediately encountered this storm of bullets.
Zhang Yu, the platoon leader of the selection regiment, saw that a Tatar "strong" officer had been shot. The officer was rushing towards this side in a menacing manner. Every time a musket was fired from here, he would hide behind a tree. He hid
After two volleys of musketry, he failed to escape the third one. A bullet shot into the center of the Tatar's eyebrow and made a hole in his skull. The bullet minced the Tatar mercilessly.
He fell to the ground without saying a word, and the heavy ax fell aside.
Zhang Yu was originally Xing Guobo's personal guard platoon leader, but last month Xing Guobo transferred him to the front selection team as a grassroots platoon leader, saying that he wanted to train him. At this time, he was standing on the front line commanding the battle.
, shouting loudly to the forty soldiers who were in charge of him.
Zhang Yu saw another Tatar who was bending his bow and shooting arrows and was shot. The Tatar was hit in the stomach by the bullet the moment the bow and arrow flew out. He screamed and fell to the ground, holding his stomach and unable to get up. This Tatar was facing
Before he died, he looked up, only to find that his arrow had missed the target. His stomach was torn apart by bullets, and his eyes were full of reluctance. He fell to the ground bleeding and had no strength anymore.
Zhang Yu no longer looked at the Tatars in front, and shouted loudly for the riflemen in the third column of his platoon to squat down. He was about to direct the soldiers in the fourth column to fire a salvo when two Tatars bent their bows and shot at Zhang Yu
Zhang Yu quickly lowered his head, and two bows and arrows pierced into Zhang Yu's armor with two "shots": one shot on Zhang Yu's helmet, and the other shot on Zhang Yu's chest.
Zhang Yu snorted coldly and didn't bother to pull out the arrows on his armor. He just shouted loudly: "Fourth column shoots!"
Almost at the same time as the soldiers in other platoons, the ten soldiers in the fourth column fired bullets at the Tatars in front. At this time, the Tatars had already attacked 20 meters away from the Huben Division. The well-trained soldiers of the Huben Division could hardly
The shot may have missed. The only thing that affects the overall number of casualties is that some Tatars are targeted by two or more soldiers at the same time and killed repeatedly.
The two Tatars who shot arrows at Zhang Yu were not spared, and were shot to death at once. They shot arrows at the officers of the Huben Division, and they were the focus of the soldiers. The two Tatars were shot several times and died.
He fell to the ground with a plop.
After the fourth column of soldiers finished fighting, there were hundreds more Tatar corpses on the ground. Although Zhang Yu had been on the battlefield twice before serving as the guard platoon leader, he had always been placed at the side and rear. This was his first experience.
Such a fierce battle. He felt that the smell of blood in the air was so strong that it solidified, making him feel like vomiting.
Zhang Yu looked at the Tatars who were still charging forward and wondered where they got such strong fighting spirit.
The Tatars have become red-blooded. They have abandoned more than 2,000 corpses in front of the battle, causing heavy casualties. If so many people had been killed in close combat with the Ming army, the Tatars would have collapsed long ago. At this time, the Tatars were supported.
The motivation to move forward came from the big drum that Obai beat with all his strength, and the other was that they believed that the fire gun soldiers of Huben Division were not good at hand-to-hand combat.
How can the fire gun soldiers fight with the Qing soldiers holding swords in their hands? The fire gun soldiers train every day to shoot guns, so naturally they are not good at close combat. The Tatars saw that all four rows of soldiers in the Tiger Division had finished shooting.
Guns, with bloodshot eyes, stopped shooting arrows, and rushed forward one by one with short-hand soldiers, wanting to fight hand-to-hand with the soldiers of the Huben Division.
They hoped to defeat and disperse the firearms force after charging into the Tiger Division's formation for a while. This was the belief that supported them in continuing to fight.
Not only the Tatar soldiers in front of the formation thought so, but also Obai and Adai thought so, including the commander-in-chief of this Tatar army, the leader of the Xianglan Banner, Jilharang, also thought so.
Since Li Zhi's Huben division is an army of soldiers and horses using firearms, they are naturally not good at close combat.
Because of this thought, they were very excited after Li Zhi came to support them and wanted to defeat Li Zhi at Hejia'ao.
However, they thought wrong. Although the veterans of the Huben Division trained rifle target shooting every three days, the veterans had a lot of time besides target shooting. During these times, Li Zhi did not let the veterans of the Huben Division idle. Veterans
They received a high monthly salary of three taels and seven taels of silver and had three meals with meat. Li Zhi would not let these soldiers idle around without training.
The soldiers of the Huben Division spent more than half of their spare training time training on bayonet fighting.
It can be said that even if the close combat skills of the soldiers of the Tiger Division are not as good as those of the Tatars, they will not be much weaker.
The Tatars who rushed forward with their swords drawn quickly understood this, because what greeted them was not the weak and bully musketeers, but a bayonet formation that was as cold as a hedgehog.
The soldiers of the Huben Division firmly held their position. The first column raised their bayonets forward, and the second column raised their bayonets from the gap in the first row to meet the charging Tatars. The third column held bayonets in the first two rows.
The fourth column quickly loaded its rifles and prepared to shoot at the Tatars behind the bayonet array.
The soldiers of the Huben Division wielded their bayonets very methodically. They relied on the bayonet array and the fine full-body steel armor they wore to assassinate without retreating. Their swords stabbed at the Tatar's vital points. The two thousand and five on the front
The Hundred Bayonet Soldiers have practiced bayonet for several years, and their shots are very experienced and fierce.
In the eyes of the Tatars, this gleaming array of bayonets was like a wall of hedgehogs, very deadly and impossible to approach.
Most of the Tatar infantry used swords. When they encountered the long rifle bayonets of the Tiger Division, they could not win because the swords were short. As the saying goes, an inch is long and an inch is dangerous. When fighting in formation, long weapons are of course the best. Some Tatars grabbed the sword and moved forward.
He rushed forward tentatively, but was immediately forced back by experienced bayonet soldiers.
But when a Tatar rushed up, four or five bayonets were immediately thrown at him. Some Tatars who could not dodge were even stabbed completely by the bayonets coming from an angle and fell in front of the formation.
The Tatars probed for a while and found that the bayonet array could not be broken down. The soldiers of Li Zhihu's Ben division were not firecrackers who could collapse in a single charge. The Qing troops behind gradually rushed up, gathered in front of the bayonet array, and waved
He fought with Master Hu Ben with swords.
However, the gleaming bayonet formation was a bit scary. Only the bravest Qing soldiers dared to stand in front of the bayonet formation and fight.
Jing'ao, who was waiting for Mele Zhang with a yellow flag, was angry when he saw that the Qing army in front did not defeat the Huben division in one go. He rushed up with a big axe. When he walked to the front of the formation, he found that the Qing army and the Huben division's bayonet array were killing each other.
It's hard to tell. In the face of the Qing army that had experienced hundreds of battles, the Huben Division's bayonet array did not fail, and Li Zhi's soldiers fought to the death one by one.
Obai yelled angrily.
As if in response to Obai's roar, a Tiger Soldier soldier directly in front of Obai stabbed a Qing infantry into the chest. The Tatar infantry looked at the crucible pierced into his chest in disbelief.
The steel knife opened its mouth wide. As soon as the Tiger Soldiers withdrew the blade, the blood in Tatar's chest immediately shot out from the wound, splashing all over the soldiers of the Tiger Army in front.
The soldier of the Tiger Division who succeeded was covered in blood, held his bayonet and roared loudly.
"Kill the slave!" Mi Niang said thanks to Soul Carving Knife, Guan Zizi under the bodhi tree, Luo Dan, i,'s 100 reward.
