Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 1530 Unstoppable
Tens of thousands of cavalry charged the front line of muskets and suffered heavy casualties. They had to steer their horses around the front line of muskets, planning to launch a sneak attack from the flanks or around the rear of the line.

The musket line is a hollow square formed by four 1000 people, like four rectangles staggered on the plain.

If the cavalry around the two wings want to attack the rear of the musket line, they will inevitably fight against the four hollow phalanxes.

The Imperial Guards, who had bypassed the musket line, fought the hollow phalanx they had never seen before for the first time. When they were about to bite down the hollow phalanx, they found that this thing was even more disgusting!
The rectangular hollow phalanx has four sides, and each side is a row of muskets. Fire support is provided between the four staggered hollow phalanxes. The intersecting firepower will completely stupefy the chaotic cavalry.

From a bird's-eye view of the battlefield, white smoke filled the air. The 10000 elite Mughal cavalry cavalry could not take down a main line and four hollow phalanxes anyway. The horse that lost its knight fled the battlefield.

The cavalry did not dare to attack the gap where the machine gun was located, because once they got close to it, they would be smashed into a sieve by the machine gun!

Rows of muskets were firing violently, and the very rude and practical line and rectangular formation quickly wiped out the spirit of the 10000 elite Mughal guard cavalry. After losing more than 1300 cavalry, the heavy loss The guard cavalry had to flee and retreated hastily.

The musket line began to advance slowly as the opponent was defeated.The drummer is using the drumbeat to direct the soldiers to take a neat step.

The eldest prince and hundreds of Indian princes panicked when they saw that the elite cavalry regiment had been defeated, and the opponent's army was marching towards them!

The army of 20 soldiers and peasants fell into chaos, and it was not known who to stop the approach of this terrible infantry!

"Calm down, calm down!" The eldest prince Darashiko rode on a war elephant, trying to appease the panicked army.

Half of the 20 troops do not have much combat effectiveness, and they become uncontrollable when they become turbulent.

The soldiers and peasants at the back didn't know what happened in front of them. They vaguely heard the news of the vanguard's defeat, and many peasants began to flee the battlefield.

Once the 20 army is defeated, not to mention being chased and killed by the enemy, even trampling each other among our own people may cause a large number of casualties!

Another cavalry stepped forward to try to block the advancing musketeers, but this cavalry, which was worse than the guard cavalry, collapsed after a few rounds of gunfire from the musketeers, unable to resist the approach of the musket line!

The eldest prince sent thousands of matchlock gunners and heavy infantry to stop them.

Thousands of matchlock gunners and heavy infantry armed with spears formed the same horizontal formation, originally thinking that they could block the opponent with matchlock guns.But the matchlock guns in their hands were already used by the Persians in the last century, and their accuracy and firepower were far inferior to the muskets of one or two hundred years later.

The firepower composed of imperial soldiers and Indian servants started the first round of shooting at a distance of 100 meters. They carried their bags and loaded the bullets while continuing to move forward. At 70 meters they stopped again for a second round of shooting...

The salvos made the arquebus soldiers and spearmen collapse quickly, and they couldn't stop the musket line from advancing!
Dalashiko, who had no choice but to send out his war elephant troops.

Hundreds of heavy war elephants were organized, with arrow towers and small cannons on their backs as long-range weapons. They were like thick walls blocking the way.

As a popular weapon in South Asia in the cold weapon era, war elephants are no longer unfamiliar. Muskets can easily defeat these cumbersome guys, but the diffuse smoke and roar of artillery make them panic.

The war elephants also couldn't stop the East India Company's coalition forces from advancing. Instead, they disrupted the formation that the army behind them had finally arranged.

"Keep moving forward!" After defeating the opponent's war elephants, the frontline commander still led the Musketeers to advance slowly.

In order to maintain a tight formation, they advanced very slowly, but they brought increasing psychological pressure to the 20 troops on the opposite side.

The 6000 infantry and artillery forced the 20 army to retreat steadily. The heavy cavalry, matchlock gunners, and war elephants in the front failed one after another. .

The battlefield is completely chaotic, deserters are everywhere!The Indian princes turned around and fled with their respective troops. There were fleeing troops all over the mountains and plains. At the feet of one's own people.

"No one is allowed to pursue without authorization!"

The Chinese officer who led the Indian servant army led the supervising team to strangle the servant soldiers who were about to move at a critical moment.

If there are no officers to restrain them, then they are likely to plunder the deserters' property or luggage.

Aurangzeb is leading a bloody battle between the Deccan cavalry and the Bengal cavalry, and is attacking Qasim with an overwhelming advantage, almost defeating Qasim's Bengal cavalry.

The blood stained one side of Aurangzeb's cheek, and his right eye was covered with blood, and all he saw was red.

In order to repel the outsiders, he has fought with all his strength.Shah Jahan, the emperor of the Mughal Empire, appointed him to lead the Mughal army to fight against foreign enemies before his death, and it was not a random decision for the eldest prince to preside over state affairs.

Aurangzeb is undoubtedly a good military commander, provided that he does not fight the more terrifying East India Company.

Just like Cromwell in Britain, Aurangzeb should have shown amazing military talents, but they were unable to achieve what they should have achieved because of the arrival of the Chinese.

"His Royal Highness, our army has collapsed, and our continued bloody battle is useless! Let's retreat too!" The cavalry of the Deccan Army reported urgently to Aurangzeb.

Aurangzeb, who was in the midst of a bloody battle, looked back in disbelief at the camp of 20 troops. At this time, the camp had been occupied by 6000 soldiers led by Qin Zuoming. .

The camp has been broken, no matter how much his cavalry fights, it will be useless, and the princely cavalry who attacked the right-wing Bengali cavalry have already fled after seeing the situation is not good, which means that the Deccan Army in his hand is already a lone army!
"My brother is really a waste, but I'm still fighting here..." Aurangzeb gritted his teeth, hating Darashiko's incompetence, "This is no longer a place of right and wrong, we will return to the Deccan Plateau and wait And move!"
