Chapter 561

Chapter 561

In the Dagukou Shipyard, there are actually 6-pound and 12-pound army guns and 24-pound naval guns cast by Dutch craftsmen.

Regrettably, in order to confuse the old emperor, Yuzhu held back his greed for merit and dared not apply for a transfer.

After the San Francisco was pacified and Taiwan was taken over, the Junggar's artillery was not good enough. The old emperor stubbornly believed that it was completely meaningless for the Chinese Empire to equip heavy artillery.

After all, it is the early Qing Dynasty, and not all the important ministers in the court are full of wine and food.

It's just that, for the old emperor's insistence on using mother and child artillery, he abandoned heavy artillery.Under decades of accumulating prestige, no one dared to speak out.

In fact, in the past dynasties, after there was no strong enemy outside, the internal armaments were relaxed.

Ma Fang Nanshan, advocating literature and suppressing martial arts, has become the norm.

Even Qin Shihuang was careless after receiving soldiers from Kyushu.

Not to mention the Song Dynasty.In the Chanyuan alliance, after the Song and Liao peace negotiations, the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty, Wen Tian and Wu played, the country was ruined and their families were destroyed.

The civil servants of the Ming Dynasty were even more rampant. Even Zheng He's technical blueprints for building treasure ships dared to be burned to ashes, but it was still nothing.

The old emperor has been in power for too long, as long as he stubbornly believes that heavy artillery is useless, no one dares to tell the truth.

This is exactly the same as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who made all the people empty and wanted to fight the Huns, but no one dared to tell the truth!
Since ancient times, most of the people who went against the emperor's mind and told the truth, even the most arrogant courtiers, did not end well!

The objective law shows that the longer the emperor reigns, the easier it is to get dizzy in his later years.

To be honest, the old emperor wanted to have fun, so Yuzhu went to help get money.

The old emperor wanted to hit Lao Ba, so Yu Zhu helped him to beat the bricks.

The old emperor wanted to expand his territory, so Yuzhu took command and set off on the Junggar prairie.

Take a closer look, as long as the old emperor wants to do big things, there are almost everywhere Yu Zhu working hard.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect!
Yu Zhu is so lovable, he deserves to be favored!

The people in the Eight Banners Firearms Battalion seem to be well-trained, but in fact, they haven't participated in actual combat for a long time.

In a short push of 100 meters, he overturned more than a dozen cannons in a hurry.

Hey, I haven't started the war yet, so I have a lot of losses.

Fortunately, the old emperor paid special attention to the Junggar people, and gave Yuzhu half of the artillery, which was enough for the Eight Banners disciples in the capital to build it vigorously.

The advantage of the mother-child cannon is that the cannon is light, easy to move, and can be loaded quickly.The shortcomings are also obvious, the power is not enough, and the range is only about 400 meters.

Among the important ministers of the Qing Dynasty, no one knew the advantages and disadvantages of heavy artillery better than Yuzhu.

The heavy artillery is powerful and has a long range, and its advantages are obvious.However, the recoil force of a retreating gun is extremely high.

Especially for heavy artillery above 12 pounds, every time a round is fired, it has to retreat a certain distance.This just needs a lot of hands to push it back to its original position, after washing the chamber, reload and launch.

Therefore, Yuzhu's advance order was issued very timely.

The artillery group on the Qing side had just advanced to the designated position, and the second artillery shell from the Junggars roared and smashed into the camp of the Eight Banners soldiers again.

The fiery red iron bullets bounced and rolled wantonly in the infantry phalanx of the Eight Banners soldiers, and flesh and blood flew everywhere they passed.

"Ah..." a famous Eight Banners soldier with a broken arm rolled on the ground in pain, and cried miserably, "It hurts, it hurts me to death, kill me."

Just behind Yuzhu, the Eight Banners infantry team was in chaos.

Yuzhu turned a deaf ear to the movement behind him, and he just ordered coldly, "Come on, tell Kashi in the Firearms Battalion that if I don't hear the dense cannon fire within fifty breaths, I will cut off his head as a substitute." chamber pot."

"Hey." After receiving the order, the herald pulled up his horse and left, rushing towards the firearms camp at lightning speed.

Gashi, the leader of the firearms battalion, did not dare to neglect after receiving the order.Because, Yuzhu's threat is definitely not a joke.

Niu Tai, who was on the horse, happened to be holding the Baihong Saber bestowed by the emperor in his hand.

To put it bluntly, as General Yuzhu Anyuan, for generals of the second rank and below, with the Baihong Saber, they can beheaded first and played later!
It will be a success!

If you are soft-hearted, don't hold soldiers, just go home and eat and wait for death.

Under the reward, there must be a brave man!
In the same way, under heavy punishment, there are also brave men.

Just when Niu Tai counted to thirty, "Boom boom boom..." More than a hundred sub-cannons roared on time.

The mother-child cannons of the Qing Dynasty have very distinctive features, generally one mother cannon and five sub-cannons.

The so-called sub-cannon is the gunpowder warehouse that has been loaded in advance.

After firing the cannon, you only need to take out the old gunpowder chamber and insert the new powder chamber into the barrel.

It is conceivable that the shooting speed is astonishingly fast!

However, due to the poor sealing of the gunpowder warehouse, the range of this kind of sub-cannon is about 400 meters.

In Yuzhu's binoculars, among the Junggars' lines, several rows were emptied in an instant, as if they were harvesting wheat.

There is no way, the accuracy of the mother-child cannon is not good, and the rate of fire is many times faster!

Cewang Allah Butan is also a veteran general who has experienced battles for a long time. Seeing that the situation is not good, he quickly pulled out his waist knife, pointed viciously in the direction of the Qing army, and shouted sharply: "Follow me and kill the Tartars!"

"Kill the Tartars..."

"Kill the dog..."

"Kill the golden dog..."

Seeing that the Junggars are out in force, Yuzhu can't help secretly admiring the wisdom of Cewang Allah Butan.

If you don't rush at this time, after the Qing army's son and mother cannons have fired more than a dozen rounds in turn, the morale of the Junggar people will definitely be over!

At this juncture, rather than waiting to be bombarded, it is better to charge hard.

As long as the two armies are entangled together, the hundreds of artillery pieces of the Qing army will be useless.

However, the slogans shouted by the Junggar people made Yu Zhu feel speechless.

In the eyes of the Qing army, the Junggars were barbarians and Mongolian Tartars.

Now, the Junggars in turn call the Qing army Tartars or golden dogs. Alas, what went wrong?
"Order, the new army advances to the front of the firearms battalion."

"Di di di di di di di..."

The officers and soldiers of the new army, with the least seniority, have also trained for four years, and all the officers have participated in actual combat.

Yuzhu commanded the new army. Simple orders can be done like a simple combination of bugle numbers and military flags.

"Boom, boom, boom..." Amidst the rhythmic sound of military drums, four rows of officers and soldiers of the new army marched forward with their rifles on their shoulders.

Amidst the trembling of the ground, the officers and soldiers of the new army quickly stood at the forefront of the entire Qing army.

The queue of 500 people was too long. It would be difficult to raise guns and shoot unanimously just by giving orders by mouth.

Therefore, Yuzhu creatively invented the method of sending orders by bugles.

"Order the first row, squat halfway, raise the gun, and aim."

Following Yuzhu's order, the ten bugle players standing beside him blew their horns vigorously with their cheeks puffed out.

"Order the second platoon, raise the gun, aim."

"Order, third and fourth rows, reload."

Facing the cavalry team charged by the Junggars, the soldiers of the new army, who had been armed to the teeth, formed a dense formation, ready to fight.

The Junggar people rushed over with their horses, and the momentum of the galloping horses was really bluffing!
Holding a binoculars in his hand, Yuzhu silently calculated the distance between the two armies.

The lobster soldiers with the British always fire at a distance of 80 meters.

Yu Zhu single-handedly trained the new army, and the firing distance was also 80 meters.

To be honest, the closer the distance is, the more the willpower of the fighters will be tested.

During the American War of Independence, the so-called Continental Army led by Washington was actually a mob.

Often, the lobster soldiers with the British were still 150 meters away, and the soldiers of the Continental Army always fired ahead of time because of their great fear.

On the battlefield, shooting early will definitely be contagious.

The Continental Army seemed to be fighting very lively, but in fact, the losses of the British Lobster Soldiers were minimal.

After the British lobster soldiers reached the shooting distance of 80 meters and started firing salvos in an orderly manner, the soldiers of the Continental Army could not withstand the huge psychological pressure and would soon be defeated.

Throughout the War of Independence period, a complete food chain has been formed, the French army abused the British army, and the British army abused the Continental Army.

At the time of the battle, whoever dares to turn around and run away among Yuzhu's new soldiers will be hacked to death by the officers on the spot.

200 meters, 150 meters, 100 meters, the Qing army never fired.

Cewang Allah Butan, who was rushing in the middle of the team, felt a little strange in his heart.

However, the two armies met, and now that the charge had been launched, there was no turning back.

No matter what awaits Alabutan in front of him, he must keep going.

90 meters...

80 meters...

"Ten rapid shots, open fire!" Yuzhu decisively gave the order to fire.

Accompanied by the sound of the loud and clear bugle, "Papapapa..." Intensive gunshots suddenly rang out.

"Herod..." The shot horse collapsed suddenly, and the Junggar knight on the horse was thrown into the air unexpectedly.

The dense rain of bullets, like the sickle of death, cut down the first row of Junggar cavalry with a "swipe."

The soldiers in the first row, after shooting, squatted in place and did not move. After the soldiers in the second row also shot, the soldiers in the first two rows, and the soldiers in the third and fourth rows exchanged views. Changed location.

"Raise your gun and shoot!"

The soldiers in the second row fired a volley amid the sound of the bugle ordered by Yu Zhu.

Soldiers of the new army, you are next to me, and I am next to you. The formation is too dense.

Even if the smoothbore flintlock has no accuracy at all, the density of shooting is enough.

"Ah..." A Junggar knight was shot in the chest, and he fell off the camel on the spot.

Unfortunately, before he had time to breathe, he was trampled to a pulp by the camels under the crotch of his compatriots behind him.

The two volleys of the Qing army caused considerable casualties to the Junggar people.

However, there is no way out for Allah Butan.

Meeting on a narrow road, only the brave can win!
"Raise your gun and shoot!"

The soldiers of the new army fired volleys again and again. After only five rounds, the Junggars couldn't bear it anymore and began to turn around and run back.

At this moment, Yuzhu asked the herald to ride to the front line and delivered a strange order, "All turn back."
