Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 264 This is a Ming Yao!
bang bang bang....
Weird muffled explosions sounded densely. It turned out that the grenadiers in the back row of the guards rushed forward to meet the hand-to-hand soldiers of the Qing army and threw a large number of grenades.

The raindrops of shrapnel from the grenade cut a piece of space into ripples, and the ground was dyed bright red!
The melee soldiers of the Qing Dynasty buried their heads in the charge, and didn't care about the casualties of the people around them. Some of them broke through the barrage, held their waist knives high, their eyes shone with excitement, and they shouted various slogans. They were only half a mile away from the top of Qingxi Mountain. Pan Aqiang could vaguely hear something like "Serve the country faithfully!", "The slaves fight to the death for the emperor!"

Boom boom boom...

Their call signs were drowned out by another burst of muffled explosions. It was a stubby firearm in the hands of Guards skirmishers, with a pitch-black barrel as thick as a child's arm, and it looked very scary.

The most frightening thing was that each of them sprayed out dozens of small projectiles, blasting the Qing army's hand-to-hand soldiers who rushed more than ten steps away, bloody and bloody.

It turns out that this is the new secret weapon of the Ming Guards—the shotgun!

This is an 25 pump-action shotgun that Zheng Kezang exchanged for 1893 points!

This is a model that used black powder and is not well known in history.

Because of the popularity of smokeless powder, Winchester quickly improved the 1893 shotgun into a 1897 shotgun that fired smokeless propellant.

Although shotguns are only used for hunting in modern times and are not very useful in military affairs, they can be called melee artifacts in this era.

The skirmishers of the Guards were condescending and raining bullets, and hundreds of shotguns beat a large number of hand-to-hand soldiers of the Qing army to the ground!

To be honest, in this era, if a shotgun is shot at close range, the gods and Buddhas are hard to save. This thing can beat the Prime Minister of Japan in seconds!

This is why the Guards did not take the lead in using the trigger rifle.

With the shotgun, a close-combat artifact that is equal to all beings, Yinren is so cool!
"Go on the bayonet!"

Seeing that the courage of the melee soldiers of the Qing army was completely interrupted, and they retreated scatteredly, the commander of the first battalion of the first town of the Guards gave an order, and the men and horses on both wings stabbed like a forest, swaying with fast running and small steps, like belts. Facing the cold wind, he rushed towards the chaotic Qing soldiers in front of him.

After a while, the Qing soldiers scattered like headless chickens, leaving only a group of people under the flag still stuck in place, at a loss, and finally stabbed to death!

Even Sun Sike in the distance dropped his jaw in shock, 6000 people as big as him disappeared in a blink of an eye!

What kind of magic is the Ming army on the opposite side!
This is too sensational.

What Ming army, this is a Ming monster!
Of course, the loss of the small forward will not affect the situation of the battle, but it will affect the spirit of Sun Sike at the foot of the mountain.

Sun Sike was in shock and didn't dare to make any more orders for a while.

Fortunately, at this time, Le Erjin's army also arrived.

Sun Sike quickly reported the situation to General Le Erjin.

Although Le Erjin didn't see it with his own eyes, he wasn't worried. There were so many people in the Qing Dynasty, so he wasn't afraid.

However, the situation is completely out of track, and it is difficult for even the veterans to provide any valuable advice.

Seeing tens of thousands of troops split into two sides, and the opposing side with few Ming Yao people, the sobriety of "Ming Yao's bravery" in his mind was overwhelmed by the advantage of his own strong troops.

"Attack! The whole army is attacking!"

Before he had time to think about it, Le Er drew out his treasured saber with a clang, waved it, pointed forward, and shouted: "Followers of the Eight Banners, when the opportunity to make meritorious service comes, follow this general. go up!"

what?
Go up?
But we are children of the Eight Banners!
Why not let the new army of green battalion muskets trained by the Portuguese take the lead first, is there any mistake!

When the Eight Banners disciples heard that they were going to "top" up, they thought they were going to charge up, and they were all stunned.

They all thought to themselves: General, that is Mingyao, our Eight Banners disciples are so precious, that’s not how they are used

Seeing the momentary silence, Le Erjin immediately understood what was going on and immediately added in Manchurian: "Why are you so stunned, hurry up and let the new army of green camp firearms come up, and then you go up to supervise the battle!"

At this moment, the disciples of the Eight Banners became overwhelmed and shouted loudly in Manchurian: "The Heavenly Soldiers of the Eight Banners are invincible under heaven!"

Following the cheers of the "Invincible Overseer" Eight Banners soldiers, all the Green Battalion soldiers on the battlefield became excited. The original probing all the way quickly turned into an all-out attack and a four-way attack.

What's interesting is that the Green Camp's new army at the top was actually in a serious line-up and shooting formation. It seems that the Portuguese hated the new Ming Dynasty who robbed them of Macau, and they actually taught the Qing army all their money.

When the green battalion new army advanced, it was a very wide column on the front, which was the formation adopted by infantry when they marched on the front and on the battlefield.

The guards also did the same, because this formation can be quickly expanded to form a horizontal line with a wide front, and it can also quickly form a hollow square.

This posture is very professional!

Even Le Erjin nodded, the Westerners are still good, but is it really good to make the Han people so powerful?

Just when he was full of ambition, Ming Jun taught him to be a man in an instant.

The black whirlwind rocket dragged a long tail flame, and made a strange cry of "Jie Jie Jie", and flew towards the Qing soldiers who were marching, because the distance was too far, and they were not very accurate.

But there were too many rockets, and in the second round of salvo, more than a dozen rockets landed impartially in the marching green battalion new army column!
After several loud bangs, hundreds of Qing soldiers around more than a dozen rockets were blown to the ground!

Dozens of Qing soldiers were killed on the spot, and some were seriously injured, bloody and bloody from the explosion, and let out heart-piercing howls of ghosts and wolves, it hurts to watch!
But this is not the most unlucky thing. When it explodes like this, it will hurt for a while and you will be able to go to hell.

The most miserable ones were those who suffered minor injuries from the explosion. The injuries of these people did not look serious, but most of them had shrapnel and iron balls penetrated into the flesh.If this cannot be removed, the wound will soon become inflamed and suppurated!

In this era, they can only die, the difference is that they suffer more!

After the baptism of rockets, the battlefield was filled with gunpowder smoke and flames rose.

The Qing army, which was marching in a mighty formation, suddenly became a little timid, and the speed of the march slowed down, and confusion appeared in several teams.

Looking at the hellish scene in the distance, Le Erjin's jaw dropped suddenly: "It's really a bright monster!"

The point is, they are helpless in the face of the rockets of the Ming army. The cavalry can't charge up in this terrain!
This is why Zhu Kezang deliberately chose Yizhang as his home game, just to avoid fighting against the cavalry of the Qing army brigade too early.

However, the Ming Guards set Yizhang County as their home field. While enjoying the advantages of the location, they also had to accept a disadvantage.

That is, the battlefield is a narrow area under the mountain, with poor airflow. Not long after the battle started, gunpowder smoke and dust lingered for a long time, and the battlefield was suddenly blurred. He could only rely on the messenger to grasp the situation.

Le Erjin still came up with a countermeasure, that is to use the number of people to support it!
