Chapter 139: Desperate withdrawal

The shot put out of the barrel can see a clear trajectory, with 12 guns in front and back, including opponents within 500-1,000 meters.

Chen Xie could see clearly in his telescope. An Later Jin officer watched the steel cast rifled cannon shooting lead bullets at high speed. Before he could react, the lead bullets hit his head hard. The huge impulse caused a wave of blood and continued to move forward without stopping. He had no head body and hung it upside down on the horse, without even making a scream.

The steel cast cannon has a fast firing speed, responsible for attacking the Later Jin soldiers behind. The target of the smooth-bore bronze cannon was the Mongolian cavalry heading in front. At this time, they had already started to speed up. They had no time to dodge the shells, so they could only rush forward with their teeth. The formation was too dense. One shot was like a blood trough pulled out more than ten meters or even further. The splashing blood, scattered limbs, and screams came late. Without even feeling the pain, the soldiers who lost their hands or feet, held the injured area and screamed and landed on the ground. There were many people who were trampled into meat by their companions' horse hooves.

"Rocket launch! No one left." The casualties caused by the cannon were just a brief beginning, followed by the rocket raindrops falling from the flames. This time Chen Xie did not save any money. The copycat version of the Kanglev rocket was like a fire-mounted javelin, nailing one cavalry after another to the ground, or hitting a horse, causing the effect of people and horses to fall. This round of strikes was even more chaotic than the previous artillery fire, which was even worse.

The formation of the Mongolian and Later Jin troops could not escape the intensiveness even if they ran. The attacks of artillery and rockets did not need to aim at them, which caused hundreds of casualties. This effect was already great. However, compared to the shooting of gunfire, artillery fire and rockets had to give way.

After rushing into three hundred meters, the guns will fire, and there is no need to break the armor at all. It is enough to overturn and dismount. The soldiers in the horizontal team are aiming and shooting almost with instinct. Many of the newly transferred infantry teams are shooting with their eyes closed. Fortunately, most of the veterans who have fought two battles this time have not happened. It is embarrassing to shoot the whole strip out.

The six infantry teams did not conduct three-stage shooting in an orderly manner. Some of the recruits were in a daze after seeing blood. This was not a big problem. This happened in the first battle. The superiors handled it very simply. They slapped him and slapped him in a silence. Some of them fell down nervously when they retreated. They could be treated as if he had never happened.

Mr. Chen is right when he sees some negative factors, he will anesthetize himself and then filter it out. The main factor in his happy mood is that the enemy who is under the attack of dense firepower is rushing forward with huge casualties. Unfortunately, there is no Maxim heavy machine gun, otherwise it will be more enjoyable.

When Chen Xie was happy, Haoge felt heartbroken. The Later Jin army that was behind was not too far from being based on Niulu. If it were against the Ming army in the past, there would be no harm at all. When the Ming army was fighting in the field, it would not carry such bulky general artillery or red-clothed cannons. Other small cannons could only take about 200 steps, and there was no worry about casualties falling on the Later Jin army.

But today's battle was very wrong. It was still six or seven hundred steps away, and it was already plowed by artillery shells, taking away more than a dozen casualties. Then the fire-riding spear was flying all over the sky, and fortunately it did not fall on his own people's heads. Looking at the formation that continued to rush forward, I was really worried that there would be some serious casualties.

This kind of worry is not redundant. Although the formation of war horses running cannot be very dense, the successive shells can always overturn several people. Even with such a degree of casualties, Haoge closed his eyes and felt a little regretful about fighting this battle. Even if he won, he would have to be scolded by him when he went back?

At this time, Haoge didn't expect the worst result, and thought he could win. Didn't he see the Mongolian cavalry on both wings approaching the archery with the guns? The next step is to rush forward.

Although there were only 500 people, the white-rod soldiers wearing plate armor had no way of retreat. Ma Xianglin didn't even pay attention. There were four rifle phalanxes behind him, each with more than fifty people, and the volleyball was raised. Chen Xie was still worried that his men could not withstand the impact of the horse team, so he quickly transferred two last infantry teams to the formation. Of course, there were still trenches and sack-raising chest walls in front of the infantry team. There were still sharp wooden deer forts in front, so he had to protect them.

The entire battlefield soon filled the smoke of gunpowder, and this was the case in the war in the era of Black Powder. The artillery kept fighting without considering whether to explode the chamber or not. The two thousand rockets brought were all fought regardless of the consequences. Chen Xie did not plan to win another big victory anyway. After this battle, it would be enough for him to eat.

The rocket's firing rate is obviously much faster, 200 at a time, artillery attacks one round, and rockets launch two rounds. The biggest effect of this kind of rocket is not killing, but rather impacts the formation of the entire Later Jin and Mongolian soldiers. Of course, the casualties are not small. It is considerable that so many rockets directly hit the target five percent of them.

Chen Xie still overestimated the courage of the Mongolian soldiers, and underestimated the deterrent power of the engineers placed in front of the spear formation overnight. The courage of the Mongolian cavalry with less than 100 casualties was completely destroyed. Before they could reach a distance of 100 meters, someone turned around and ran away. Of course, the main reason for this phenomenon was that a platoon leader had a temporary annoyance hole opened and made a decision. The situation at that time was like this, at a distance of about 300 meters, a guy wearing a lightning rod and a bright armor was around him.

Following dozens of guards, he saw a commander. The platoon leader made a decision and ordered his fifty people to concentrate their firepower with rifles to attack this unlucky guy named Gelen. Unexpectedly, this decision had an unexpected effect. He platooned the guns and the unlucky guy was heavy with two bullets, and he took a horse off his horse. When his guards helped him up, there was a big hole in the back of his head. When he was shot, Gelen was holding a knife in one hand and opened his mouth and shouted loudly: "Kill!" A bullet drilled into his mouth.

As soon as Gelen died, the Mongolian cavalry's courage immediately became weak, and even shouted involuntarily: "Master is dead!"

The Mongolian cavalry who were charging forward turned their horses and ran away, but naturally they were chased by rifles, leaving dozens of people behind.

Wang Qinian was not so lucky. The role of Luzhai was only to hinder and delay the impact of the cavalry and could not completely stop the cavalry. However, under the sequential attacks of more than 300 rifles, the Mongolian cavalry paid nearly 100 casualties before rushing to the front of the formation. What was waiting for them was a dense spear formation.

The puff spear stabbed into the body of the war horse. At the same time, the whine sounded, and the momentum of running forward was stagnant, which also made a small gap in the strict spear formation. However, the white-rod soldiers were all veterans. People who were used to life and death, so they pushed up without hesitation and continued to stretch their spear forward with their spears, while the ones behind were neatly poked forward.

The sound of puff and puff mixed with jingling sounds, and the defense of the plate armor exceeded the imagination of both the enemy and us. Bows and arrows have no effect at all, and only heavy weapons can be useful. However, personal courage has no room for performance at this time.

Sweeping, a Mongolian warrior used his last little strength to throw out an axe and knocked down a spearman, but he was targeted by the musketeers behind him, and a sieve was reached by a sieve.

The entire battle became extremely simple, with the strict spear formation constantly repeating the assassination, retraction, assassination, and retraction. The rifle soldiers kept firing, loading, firing, and reloading. Both sides of the enemy and us had considerable casualties, but neither of them wanted to take a step back.

When the distance was only fifty meters, six smoothbore cannons fired again, this time it was shotgun. The most brutal scene of this battle appeared. A small shot put like a heavy rain instantly cleaned a large area of ​​Mongolian cavalry in front of the barbed wire. It is impossible to count how many people were knocked down. After the smoke of the gunswept, the formation of Mongolian horses outside the fifty no longer existed. There were corpses of people and horses everywhere, with broken hands and feet in pieces, and the screams of injured but undead even covered the gunshots on the battlefield.

Finally, the Mongolian cavalry with huge casualties could not support it, and they turned their horses and ran away. However, the rifles were still ringing, and people were constantly being knocked off the horses. The horses after the sprint slowed down when they rotated, creating favorable time conditions for the riflemen's shooting. What's even more annoying is those Luzhai that were arranged in five rows in a completely irregular manner. When you go back, you still have to walk around.

Compared with frontal battles, the battle on both wings is really too slight. The Mongolian soldiers who had completely entered the range of full firepower attacks undoubtedly became prey in the slaughterhouse. It is impossible to retreat. The Later Jin soldiers behind them will chop them over without hesitation. The huge casualties are unbearable. They run to both sides smartly, but they will be given priority by rifles. They continue to rush forward with a brain-wrenching effort and quickly rushed to the front of the barbed wire. The most painful scene in the history of the Later Jin war appeared.

He kept rushing onto the barbed wire with his horse, and then he was overturned and piled up a row of meat in a short time. Rolling and falling off the horse does not mean death, but death must follow. The bang bang rifle sounds like the death-hunting king of hell, taking away dozens of lives without a single sound.

The Later Jin soldiers who were behind quickly repeated the same mistakes as Mongolian soldiers. Wash the shells first and the rockets twice, and then the formation became chaotic, with scared horses everywhere, and "warriors" rushing forward involuntarily. In fact, few of these warriors looked panicked.

There is no so-called fierce battle. In just fifty meters, three barbed wire mesh ensures that other weapons can't beat the opponent except for bows and arrows. Although some brave Later Jin soldiers shot the rifle soldiers on the opposite side with their bows and arrows. However, except for directly shooting into the face, the killing effect of hitting other parts is not obvious. In this world, there is no one called a stabbing suit. I thought that with the time and space shuttle, there was a stabbing suit.

Another shotgun volley, after washing it again.

After witnessing the battle for only half an hour or more, Haoge, who was not too stupid, was desperate and ordered to withdraw his troops in time. (To be continued...)
