Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 1221 Soldiers never tire of cheating, raid!
To the north of the battlefield is the Crescent Scimitar Banner, and to the south is the Five-Clawed Yellow Dragon Banner, representing the decisive battle between the armies of two civilizations.

The queen of Aceh was covered with a veil, so she couldn't see her face clearly, her beautiful eyes were looking at the situation on the battlefield.

There are several rows of war elephant soldiers behind her, their thick body is like a wall of flesh.

The twelve great nobles commanded their respective troops to retreat, and according to the agreement, gave an open space to the soldiers of the No.12 regiment in the bastion, so that they could start a fair battle without attacking the bastion.

A group of infantry came out of the bastion first, and horses dragged a 3-pound cannon out, as if they were about to form a formation.

The Queen of Aceh said something to the twelve Aceh nobles, but the twelve Aceh nobles shook their heads.

About 500 musketeers came out from the bastion, and they lined up in several rows according to the lineup familiar to Aceh people, and there were also spearmen standing in the front row of the lineup.

The twelve Aceh nobles waved their hands when they saw each other forming a musket formation.

They were not so reckless, and chose to put the elephant soldiers with the strongest defense in the rear to prevent the cunning No.12 regiment in the city from going out of the city to attack.

After seeing that the other party had set up a musket formation that needed to listen to the drumbeat to move forward slowly, they were relieved to let the elephant soldiers retreat to make way for an open space.

Yet they still underestimated their opponents.

When the elephant soldiers began to retreat, the sound of horseshoes sounded, and 72 ready-to-go horses rushed out of the bastion!
"Fire!" The naval guns placed on the bastion roared into the distance!

"All the soldiers follow me to charge!" The 500 musketeers who had already formed a formation under the bastion suddenly gave up the original dense lineup, and under the leadership of the lower-level officers, they charged the Aceh army with a skirmish line!
Equipped with rear-loading rifles, cardboard bullets, and bayonets, the soldiers of the No.12 Corps can charge and shoot while charging without the cover of pikemen, and can also engage in close combat with bayonets after approaching!

All of a sudden, the sound of artillery and the charge were loud, and the cavalry raid team came first, and the team was the best on the battlefield!
"Kill!!" The cavalry entered the charging stage, and the cavalry aimed their early Colt revolvers at the elephant soldiers in the rear!

"Aim at the eyes of the elephants and the soldiers on the tower, and shoot when the distance is close!" The officer who commanded the cavalry raid squad shouted at the members of the cavalry squad.

The revolvers they wield allow them to fire several rounds in succession before hand-to-hand combat, and used well can be a huge blow to the morale of an enemy.

Boom!Boom!The sound of several bullets.

The Dongying samurai, who had never used a revolver before, pulled the trigger because of nervousness.

The inaccurate bullets landed on several war elephants, causing the painful war elephants to go berserk.

"Moo!" The out-of-control war elephant rushed around, and the mahout who couldn't dodge was pierced by sharp ivory, and blood spattered!

If the war elephant rushed into the enemy's camp and lost control, it could also cause huge casualties to the enemy due to trampling, but at this time it was out of control among the army of Aceh!

The Queen of Aceh and the twelve nobles couldn't help being furious when they found out that the No.12 regiment had deceived them.

They clearly agreed with the No.12 Corps to fight in the wilderness, but the other party launched a surprise attack when they were retreating!

The queen of Aceh shouted loudly and the twelve nobles roared angrily one after another. Some of the retreating elite indigenous troops gathered around them and began to resist the No.12 Corps' assault.

However, they didn't realize what the previous retreat order meant to the army of tens of thousands of people.

But any army that is prohibited by law can be regarded as an elite division in ancient times.

However, the word order and prohibition cannot be used to describe the Aceh army assembled from various villages.

The cavalry raid team started firing their revolvers less than 20 meters away from the elephant soldiers when they turned around awkwardly!
bang bang bang!The revolvers fired one after another, and the elephants were constantly injured, and the soldiers on the elephant's back were shot and fell from the elephant's back.

The officer leading the cavalry raid team was even more daring. He rode a horse and passed between two war elephants. The revolver shot and wounded the eyes of the war elephants at a distance of less than three meters from the war elephants!

After the cavalry raid team, a group of hand-to-hand warriors followed with spears and Japanese swords. They formed a spear formation to besiege the elephant soldiers who were disturbed by the cavalry team!
The skirmish lines on the two wings had also reached the effective killing range of Dreiser's rifles, and they began to quickly concentrate their forces and conduct flexible free fire.

The musketeers in the front row were lying on their stomachs, the musketeers in the second row were half kneeling, and the musketeers in the third row and the musketeers in the back fired in turn, white smoke filled the air!The infantry quickly removed the cardboard bullets to reload after firing.Because of the rear loading and quantitative bullets, the deployment and shooting speed of the infantry far exceeded the imagination of the natives of Aceh!
The worst thing is that they underestimated the range and accuracy of this breech-loading rifle beyond this era, thinking that the opponent used the tactic of queuing up and shooting and could not carry out a quick assault!

The queen of Aceh was riding a war horse, looking a little panicked.

In her place were twelve nobles from the Aceh Kingdom, surrounded by only a few hundred elite native warriors, armed with firearms, bows and arrows, and spears.

More Aceh troops have fallen into collapse!
The elephant soldiers and a few troops in the back of the palace could witness the No.12 regiment's surprise attack and the progress of the battle.However, for most of the Aceh soldiers who were retreating, they didn't know what was going on in the rear, and the noise of artillery and muskets made them feel terrified.

Soon the normal retreat turned into a rout, and they wanted to escape the sound of musket guns getting closer and closer!
Originally, the infantry of the No.12 Corps had already prepared for bayonet hand-to-hand combat when the Aceh army counterattacked, but under the suppression of their firepower, the Aceh army did not dare to be incapable of counterattack, and instead retreated steadily!

Seeing that the situation was not good, the twelve nobles of Aceh gave up their plan to command the troops to fight back, and fled to the depths of the forest on horseback.

"Kill!" Tachibana Tadamo held the reins with one hand, and raised a sharp straight knife with the other, continuously drawing bloodstains, blood stained his sword and armor.

Suddenly he caught a glimpse of the troops protecting the queen of Aceh being taken away by the nobles of Aceh, and there were few guards around the queen.

It is said that there is a reward for the queen who captures the opponent!

Thinking of this, Tachibana Tadashige broke away from the cavalry raid team, slashed all the way, and rushed straight to Queen Alan of Aceh!

The veiled Queen Alan's eyes panicked, Tadamo Tachibana rode her horse and stretched out her arms to stop her, and she was easily captured!

Tachibana Tadamo could smell the scent of spices on her body, but he didn't expect that the queen in charge of a powerful native kingdom would be powerless.
