Ming Zhengzhi, I am Zheng Kezang

epydz (although the rifle equipped by the Xia army is not the best equipment in the flintlock era, it has achieved a good balance between the range and the power of the ammunition. In contrast to the armor equipped by the shogunate army, those equipped by the ashigaru concentric waves First of all, it goes without saying that the bamboo trunk, the bamboo skin trunk, and the leather trunk have no defensive power. Even the high-level warriors such as Banner and the famous vassals are equipped with the same level as the early Chinese Liangdang armor, so they cannot be defended at all. Resist the bullets fired by Xia Jun

Of course, Japan is not without good armor. In the nearly 160 years since the Portuguese first came to Tanegashima in September [-] in the Western calendar, Taixi merchant ships have sold at least a thousand armors of excellent quality and workmanship in Japan. Exquisite all kinds of plate armor""

However, these Taixi armors sold from thousands of miles to Japan are too expensive. At best, only a few super daimyos such as generals holding national-level daimyos and quasi-holding national-level daimyos can include them in the treasure house of the secret room. Even the ordinary daimyos have no chance to succeed, so naturally it is impossible to appear on the battlefield

Since the defense does not make a profit, the team can only rush forward against the opponent's shotgun, but Xia Jun's shooting speed surprised the Japanese army. You must know that Japan also has the so-called three-stage iron cannon tactics of hitting the bottle, But compared to the shooting efficiency of Xia Jun's fixed ammunition, any tactics are scumbags

The shogunate army is not without means of countermeasures. It is a pity that the infantry brought by the bannermen does not have uniform equipment. The weapons they carry are basically determined according to the financial resources and preferences of the bannermen and the infantry. Most of them are The number of iron cannons and bows and arrows is far less than that of the ashigaru team on the flanks.

What's even more tragic is that the Xia army also regards these Japanese troops with long-range weapons as the first targets to be eliminated. Often when the long-range soldiers in the banner team enter the range where they can counterattack, they will be greeted by Xia's dense gunfire Although the long-range soldiers in the banner team also caused some casualties of Xia Jun sporadically, the biggest effect of the sporadic firepower was to expose themselves

"The advancing speed of the Japanese cavalry is too slow," Ye Zuowei, commander of the First Brigade of the Longxiang Army, who commanded the battle from a watchtower similar to that of Yang Bokang, commented, "It can't be compared with the speed of the Manchu Manchu cavalry at all. It’s wishful thinking to break through our army’s line without enough impact.”

Lu Da'an, the brigade commander next to him, rolled his eyes: "Although there is nothing wrong with what you said, Mr. Fentong, aren't you also Ri himself?"

"Brother Shuda, although you and I know each other well, you can't talk nonsense." Ye Zuowei, who used to be called Onozaemon Zuo, puffed up his chest and responded, "What kind of person, now I am the founder of the country bestowed by the Holy Spirit, a dignified Huaxia Gongmin, Japan has nothing to do with me and my family anymore."

Lu Da'an looked at Ye Zuowei in surprise, and then asked uncertainly: "Lord Fentong, I heard that the Holy Majesty asked the shogunate to abolish the lock-up order this time, allowing Ri himself to go abroad and foreign Ri himself to return to the country. Don't you want to return home in good clothes?" ?”

"Ribo, a small place, what's so good about it?" Ye Zuowei has never returned to his mother country since he was born, so he naturally doesn't think there is anything attractive about it. Is it just the landlord of the shogunate, and will the shogunate all day long be changed, easily destroyed, and those who live a miserable life, how can they compare with the famous weapons of this dynasty? Maybe others want to go back and have a look, but I No matter what you say, you won’t go back to Japan”

"Master Fentong, I remember that you are only the founder of the country now, and you are still far away from the minimum limit for the founding of the country," Lu Da'an reminded, "Even if you are awarded the county male, it is only four or five thousand stones. status"

"That's why I have to make more meritorious deeds." Ye Zuowei expressed his ambition, "At least the title of county earl can be satisfied." Speaking of this, Ye Zuowei pointed to the smoky battlefield in front of him, "No, the credit will be delivered to your door coming"

As Ye Zuowei was talking, Xia Jun's left wing also started firing gunshots. The Langshi team, which was beaten to pieces by Xia Jun's long-range artillery fire, burst out with courage beyond common sense under extreme emotions, scrambling to be the first to rush towards Xia Jun regardless of the formation. The army position, actually completely surpassed the feudal warrior team and touched the Xia army's fire net one step earlier than the foot light team on the other wing.

Because the distance is still a bit far, Xia Jun's first salvo of all members actually caused limited damage to the Langshi team. However, besides the platoon of guns, Xia Jun also has dozens of front artillery pieces waiting for the Japanese army. The dense shotgun shells let the Langshi team, who had finally escaped from the [-]-pound solid bullets, really understand what is called a metal storm

Groups and rows of rogues were swept away by the artillery fire, and those who escaped by chance became dead souls under Xia Jun's platoon guns. This could not help frightening the successors. Many of them were local people who had lost their land or wanderers with other identities who joined under false pretences, and the shogunate did not properly identify the recruits because of the sudden invasion of the Xia army, so the Langshi team was full of all kinds of people who tried to change their destiny in one step. People and some guys who get by

After the Xia army retreated for the first time, although the shogunate reorganized the Langshi team, but because the high-level officials of the shogunate were dismantling the Langshi team, the voices were heard all the time, so the first-line team sent by the shogunate was head-foot light, general bow, and small captain. The commander didn't seriously understand the real situation of the Langshis, so this time bomb was always buried deep in the Langshis, and finally exploded at the most critical moment
