Meng Zhiqi and Bayin both agreed loudly and ran quickly back to their own teams. Over there, the gunmen's servants had already started to tamp the gunpowder in the gun tubes with a pipe. After hearing the order, they quickly lined up with the fireguns and wooden forks.

They formed a loose three-row formation in front of the formation, and then continued to load ammunition.

Another person held a red sharpened wooden pole in his hand and walked forward quickly. When he reached about seventy steps, he inserted the wooden pole into the ground.

At this time, everyone could already hear the rumble of horse hooves in the distance, and could also see the smoke rising into the sky getting closer and closer. After inserting the wooden pole, the man ran back.

From the flying dust, one could vaguely see the figures of the army's cavalry, and could also feel that the opponent's speed was getting faster and faster. It was obvious that they were accelerating, and it seemed that they were charging head-on.

"Brother, you have to take charge of the entire Zhao Ziying. You can't stand at the front. I'll do it and you go to the back." Hearing the sound of armor clashing behind him, Jixiang, wearing full body armor, came behind Zhao Jin.

"At this time, I want everyone to know that I am standing at the front, you go and restrain the cavalry, go quickly." Zhao Jin scolded, Ji Xiang didn't say much, nodded heavily and ran back quickly.

"Send the order, move the archers behind the fire guns, the same loose formation," Zhao Jin said loudly. If he didn't raise his voice, the people behind him wouldn't listen.

Bayin, who was on the left wing of the brigade, shouted and led the bow team to the front of the fire gun team. The bow team had been servants from the beginning, but they were more familiar with the formation than the fire gun team, and they quickly expanded their formation.

After all, the army's cavalry is the most elite. When Zhao Ziying's fire gunner Ding, who was at the forefront, saw it, his cavalry had already maintained a formation and rushed over. There were more than a dozen cavalry in a row, several rows in a team, and several teams moved forward one by one.

, and the team at the front were all wearing armor and holding spears, and they looked majestic. The cavalry team was neat, the sound of hooves was like thunder, and the ground seemed to be shaking.

"Duan Ping, don't shake your hands, blow on the match rope and don't let it go out. Follow the order to fire, whoever will start the military law first?" Firearms Company Meng Zhiqi and the foreigner Louis shouted at the top of their lungs. The foreigner Louis's Mandarin was not very standard and had a strange accent.

tune.

This kind of movement made the archers in the archers behind them couldn't help but laugh. Compared with the fire gun servants who were in front of them for the first time, they had seen the scene before and knew that the spear phalanx behind them was extremely reliable.

"It takes such effort, but those who can shoot arrows with bows and arrows can shoot out directly." Someone couldn't help laughing.

The person who said this was glared hard by Bayin, the archer, and immediately did not dare to say anything, but everyone winked and smiled playfully.

Bayin put his bow and arrow on the string and whispered to Delhei beside him: "We have been using bows and arrows for how long since we were in elementary school, and they have been practicing for a long time now, but they can use them now."

The officers and cavalry also saw the array of firearms in front. After seeing this, even though they were full of fighting spirit, they still couldn't help but laugh. If they could block the cavalry with this, the Tatars would have been wiped out in the Nine-Border Land long ago.

Okay, why have you worked so hard until now? This time it seems that you have succeeded.

None of them noticed the red pole stuck in the ground, and they didn't even bother to move it away. The horses rushed over and took it away.

The sound of thunderous hooves covered up the laughter of the cavalry, and also suppressed the crackling of firecrackers more than a hundred paces away. Only one firecracker was seen emitting white smoke, and then several, dozens, and dozens of firecrackers.

The guns began to emit white smoke, and the smoke temporarily obscured the faces of the gunmen. As expected, they couldn't help but fire in advance. The officers and cavalry even laughed loudly. How could the officers and soldiers not know this habit when they have so many firearms?

The enemy rushes over and cannot help but fire when they are out of range. When the enemy reaches the range, the firearms are either out of ammunition or cannot be fired, and they can only flee. Besides, the musket is only a few dozen steps away, and this pipe

The thick ones only have a range of twenty or thirty steps at most.

o "Don't open fire early. It is against military law. Please shout with me." Meng Zhiqi shouted while running in the queue. He was really anxious. Even though he had trained so many times, on the battlefield, something still went wrong. One person panicked.

He opened fire in advance, and everyone else followed suit. What made Meng Zhiqi even more anxious was that Zhao Jin and the foreigner Louis had both discussed these issues with him.

"After firing, pull back and reload ammunition, fill in the rear row, enter the firing range, enter the firing range, and fire again." Meng Zhiqi's voice was already hoarse from shouting.

Most of the fire gun servants obeyed the order. Although many of them were trembling, they could clearly see the flash of the enemy's armor and weapons, but a few were so frightened that they collapsed. They simply threw away the fire gun and wooden fork.

, ran towards the back regardless of it.

This reaction made the scene even more chaotic. Meng Zhiqi was so angry that because the formation was loose, the few people were not running very slowly and were heading straight for the rear group.

"Kill these deserters, kill them," Meng Zhiqi shouted. He was shouting to the archers behind him.

The archers of the archery team were not merciful. Zhao Ziying dealt with the deserters very harshly. Those who escaped from the battle were killed.

As soon as those deserters ran out of the ranks of the Fire Gun servants, they fell down screaming, with more than a few arrows nailed to their bodies. Some people in the archer ranks couldn't help but laugh, and the laughter was full of contempt, even though the scene was very noisy, even though they immediately

I held back, but I was still heard clearly by the Fire Gun servants.

They couldn't help but glance back, and saw their companions who had been together day and night falling to the ground after being hit by arrows. Everyone was filled with sadness and fear, and the sneers and contempt of the archers made everyone feel extremely ashamed and angry, and they gritted their teeth and turned around.

Meng Zhiqi's face flushed red, and the faces of the Fire Gun servants also had expressions of shame and anger. Meng Zhiqi glanced at the strict square formation of the Guards. He could not see Zhao Jin's expression through the archers. Meng Zhiqi calmed down and continued

He yelled at the top of his lungs: "Hold it down, hold it down, wait until you are within range before firing."

The foreigner Louis on the other side used a more direct method. He held a wooden stick in his hand and beat the gun servants hard to keep them steady and to load the ammunition quickly.

The officers and cavalry did not notice that several of their companions were screaming in pain, or that their mounts suddenly lost control. They only thought that this was a normal collision. Everyone was full of confidence. Now the great achievement was right in front of them. The heads of these thieves and the thieves

The wealth gathered and plundered will all belong to themselves.

As for the thieves and firearms team in front of them that is not in chaos yet, there is no need to worry about that. As long as they get closer, the opponent will naturally collapse.

The red wooden pole stuck in the ground was knocked down mercilessly. The queue of fire cannons in front of them was already in a commotion, and some people opened fire hastily, causing the officers and soldiers on the horse to laugh.

But at this moment, the sound of hoofbeats was like thunder, which firmly covered up the muffled sound of firing muskets. Even the formation of muskets could not hear clearly, so there were very few people following the shooting, and the officers and soldiers gradually increased their horse speed.

, they concentrate on paying attention to the enemy on the opposite side, controlling their mounts, and no longer pay much attention to their companions, so even if their companions die or fall off their horses, they will not notice them at all.

"Fire, fire!" The front line of the cavalry was about fifty steps away from the firecrackers queue. Meng Zhiqi shouted at the top of his lungs, but at this moment, only the people closest to him could hear him clearly. At this moment, the other side of the firecrackers queue

A sharp whistle sounded, and Meng Zhiqi also reacted, took out a copper whistle and blew it desperately, and then opened fire with a firecracker.

The muffled sound of banging and banging continued, like the sound of New Year's firecrackers. White gunpowder smoke filled the air in front of the firecrackers. The thunderous sound of horse hooves suddenly weakened, and then screams of pain and miserable hissing followed.

"Load, fire, load and fire," Meng Zhiqi shouted.

At this moment, there was no need for him to give orders. Those who fired first were busy loading ammunition. Just at this time, everyone opened fire. Everyone felt a lot more confident inexplicably. It seemed that because of the sound of the cannons, the mighty cavalry of the army

A little further away from them.

Perhaps it was the sudden relaxation after being tense, but the second round or the third round of shooting by some fire gun servants was really terrible.

There was plenty of preparation time for the first round of shooting. Everyone was just like in the training, and every action was very standard. But then the smoke was billowing in front of the eyes, the sound of hoofs was thundering in the ears, and those ferocious official cavalry were about to kill in front of them.

, although the distance is still far away, but thinking of this, most people's hearts tremble and their hands tremble, and they cannot calm down at all.

Someone stuffed the connecting rod into the firecracker and forgot to pull it out. He lit it and shot. The connecting rod was shot out. Although there was some damage, the firecracker could not continue to fire.

There were also people who overloaded the ammunition, and the result was that the barrel exploded when they fired, and their whole face was covered in blood. They screamed and rolled around, and their companions around them were also affected. Others did not load enough ammunition, and the projectiles did not fly far, not to mention forgetting to load it.

The sound is just empty.

"Brothers, let's just fight the thief. Let's rush over and kill him." Someone from the army on the opposite side could be heard shouting, and the sound of hooves seemed to be getting closer again.

It cannot be said that the firearms of the army are useless at all. Thunder guns, quick guns, three-eyed guns, squatting tiger cannons, etc., even if they are filled with sandstone and ceramic tiles, if they are fired within a dozen or twenty steps, it will

Fireworks and flying fragments can also injure and kill people, not to mention that bird cannons can break armor within a few dozen steps. You all know this and have seen it, but you also know that as long as the cavalry arrives, these thieves with firearms will be

Pigs and dogs are generally waiting to be slaughtered. You can just tolerate it for a while and kill them. You can feel it and subsequent shots will not be able to keep up.

This shout came faintly, making Zhao Ziying's fire gun servants even more panicked. When the figures of the official cavalry passed through the smoke and dust again, the fire gun servants were completely panicked. They knew that they had nowhere to escape, and they knew that they had to

To kill the enemy, you have to shoot, but in the rush, only a few firecrackers were fired, but someone threw away the firecrackers, holding a flat-ended wooden fork as if holding a short spear, preparing to resist the cavalry.
