Archer, historically speaking, is the only type of troops that can restrain cavalry.

Musketeers are archers' changes.

But one thing to be noted is that the same number of archers will absolutely not be able to restrain the cavalry.

Because in field battles, it is impossible to aim with a bow against a cavalry, the archers all use longbows to diffuse parabola, that is, they must win by intensive means.

In this way, it can be understood that a thousand cavalry requires at least three to five thousand archers to check and balance, otherwise, it would be scratching the surface and not at all.

But now, when the two armies confront each other, Yue Le naturally pushed the new musket army forward to achieve offsets from the same army.

In this way, the problem arises.

Musketeers are mutants of archers, which is true, but there are huge differences in the shooting methods of cavalry in the field.

The musket cannot diffuse, it can only shoot directly.

Then, muskets can only deal with cavalry with precision. At this time, muskets are far from the standard of precision, and even the latest flintlock rifle in the Jiangnan Military Workshop cannot reach the level that can be called precision.

It still needs to be dense.

Can Yue Le lead the new army to be intensive?

Of course, it can! But it cannot last.

Just imagine, even muskets are purchased from outside, how can it be guaranteed that the 40,000 army can still have sufficient ammunition after seven consecutive days of fierce fighting?

Even the Northern Expedition Army lacked ammunition supply, let alone the Qing army that advocated the "take-taking theory"?

When Lu Zhiyuan came up with this "bad" idea, he obviously would not consider these things.

But in fact, he happened to hit Yue Le's key point, and even Yue Le himself hadn't realized this.

Because Yue Le is also accustomed to commanding cold weapons troops to fight, but he is barely learning musket tactics and tactics by himself.

But subconsciously, he still had the fighting idea of ​​cold weapons, such as sending an elite cavalry to attack Pizhou.

Therefore, in addition to the new army confronting the front line, he was more accustomed to using cavalry.

Among all the Manchu generals, only cavalry is the main force, while infantry is the one who cleans the battlefield or defends the city and fights.

In this way, a new army of combat in the front will be born. As long as there is ammunition in hand, there will be no idea of ​​preparing for unexpected accidents.

For example, the soldiers of the Northern Expedition Army usually equipped with a paper bullet of 100 rounds, weighing more than 6 kilograms (16 taels of scale). When the war is in a tight situation, they are often equipped with 200 rounds. Of course, this is an exception, just like this battle.

Often, when the use is halfway, they will report to Shangguan. When only one-third of the use is left, they will not report it, but will make a fuss and ask for supplies.

But the Qing army was different. They reported to Shangguan unless they had no ammunition in their hands.

This is the key to Yue Le.

Because at this time, the main force of the new army that was confronting the Northern Expedition Army had few ammunitions in their hands.

The Lu domain uses such a cavalry to do recklessly, which actually exacerbates the enemy's insufficient ammunition and is revealed in the vision of the generals on both sides.

....

When the Lu territory personally led 1,800 cavalry and rushed out of the temporary crack of the Northern Expedition Army Front.

The Qing army, who were miles away, had their faces changed whenever they saw it.

If Yue Le saw it with his own eyes, his face would change drastically.

No one can tell if this is a wise rider, there is no need to!

Even if it is a stone, it will cause a fracture if it hits like this.

The only reaction of the Qing army was to fire muskets.

After a few rounds, many cavalrymen were thrown away, and the dense gunfire suddenly sparse.

At this time, the Qing army generals had not yet realized that it was a problem caused by insufficient ammunition. They thought that their soldiers were not firing due to fear, so the problem was ignored.

But Chi Erhan, who was holding the telescope and was so nervous that his legs were straightened, keenly noticed this abnormality.

He instantly realized that this was a rare fighter jet.

Originally, Chi Erhan, like the Lu Domain, was just preparing to create a gap so that the situation of war could continue to move forward.

Therefore, Chi Erhan just organized a sharp knife battalion, preparing to break through the gap after an explosion occurred in front of the enemy's formation, and then tear the enemy's front, causing the enemy's local defeat.

But now, Chi Erhan doesn't think so, because in terms of the confrontation record of 20 to 30 miles apart, once the enemy's ammunition is in a hurry, even if it appears in part, it will become a cause of defeat on the whole line.

Chi Erhan no longer hesitated, and he made the most wisest decision in his life - the sharp knife camp charged immediately!

At the same time, Chi Erhan urgently ordered the entire army to charge!

....

Needless to say, Yue Le is inexplicable.

Even the Lu Domain, which was leading the cavalry to charge, was inexplicably surprised.

He thought Chi Er was worried about his life and death, so he ignored the advance agreement and ordered the Sharp Knife Camp to charge forward in advance.

This made the Lu Domain extremely nervous, because it had agreed that the cavalry had to wait for the enemy's front and after it was detonated, it was necessary to observe whether the situation was worthy of betting, and then decide whether to chase the Sharp Knife Camp or not and charge.

But now, it's like a twitch.

Lu Zhiyu cursed Chi Erhan in his heart, and raised his hand and shouted: "Hurry up... the sharp knife camp has started charging..."

This shout caused the most regrettable thing.

The two armies were already several miles apart, and the cavalry could rush to the point of the Lu domain. The shout from the Lu domain directly became the summoning talisman of the God of Death.

In the blink of an eye, the cavalry continued to accelerate, and countless cavalry rushing into the enemy formation detonated the medicine bag without hesitation.

The explosions caused by the air waves and dust enveloped the battlefield.

If we look at the scene at that time, the Qing army's front was no longer a gap, but a dam breaking. Of course, this was just the front.

By chance!

Tens of thousands of troops, even a confrontation line of twenty or thirty miles, is at least ten miles deep.

In other words, the assault of the cavalry team can at most penetrate the enemy's front army and even reach the central camp.

However, it is conceivable that countless explosions on the front line and the invasion of cavalry caused chaos in the front army.

Chi Erhan ordered the Sword Battalion to attack in advance, which caused psychological pressure from the Qing army's front army.

The Qing army's partial collapse is inevitable.

Chi Erhan, the tactical purpose of the Lu Domain should have been achieved at this point.

However, Chi Erhan issued a general attack order.

This is equivalent to three waves, with cavalry rushing with their bodies, and the sharp knife camp follows with bayonets to fight with their hands. Behind them, the entire army is pressing over.

The Northern Expedition Army, all over the mountains, roared in unison, and rushed towards the enemies several miles away like a tide.

At this time, the entire line of the Qing army's front army had already irreversible.

At this time, Yue Le, who was only five miles away from the front army, had not even received a report.
