Chapter 752 Trial Attack

Chapter 752 Trial Attack
After the roar of the artillery, nearly 10 people on the battlefield immediately fell silent, only looking at the wreckage that had been cut off half of their bodies on the battlefield.

It wasn't until the wreckage fell to the ground that people realized that Yu Siqiang was also a man of influence in Datong Town back then. He was a popular candidate for the deputy general and the commander in chief. However, in the army of Ji Town, there are generals sent by Datong Town to coordinate, and they all recognize Yu Siqiang.

Seeing this person shamelessly talking about "Shunyi King" there, everyone believed it, and with a thunderclap, Yu Siqiang was smashed to pieces, and after a moment of silence, thunderous applause rang out.

The two armies were fighting, and the morale of the Ming army had already won first. Under the golden banner, several cavalrymen could be seen running towards the army.

These cavalrymen were all carrying flags. They were the messenger cavalry of the Tartars. Wherever they ran, the formation started to move.

"Dong dong dong" the cowhide drum was beating, and cavalry began to line up from the Tarbarian cavalry team. These cavalry appeared nothing special, even weaker than those who lined up in front of the line, and their equipment looked tattered.

There are nearly a thousand cavalry on the left and right, and nearly three thousand cavalry in the middle. It can be seen that these three thousand cavalry seem to be much elite.

This kind of combination makes people feel quite astonished, but for the Ming army's car camp, the enemy's attack is the best way to fight, and it is just to let the enemy hit their heads in front of firearms and bows.

As soon as the drum beat stopped, it rang again and again, and the Tartar cavalry who came out shouted and moved forward in unison. The generals in the Ming army lined up loudly ordered the soldiers to get ready.

The cavalry lineup between the Jizhen army formation and the Huwei army formation also began to move forward slowly. The cavalry placed in the formation by the Tartars looked the strongest, and it seemed that they were targeting the Ming army cavalry. A fierce battle.

"Commander, the Tartars have another soldier coming out, just behind the cavalry that went out first!""

The soldiers on the watchtower shouted, Wang Tong frowned, let the watchman come down, and went up by himself. Sure enough, except for the middle one, the other two cavalry teams followed. Some cavalry came out and followed behind.

The three teams of cavalry in the battle were able to keep pace at the beginning, but later, the middle team fell behind, and the other two teams rushed ahead.

From Wang Tong's position, he could vaguely see that the formation of the two protruding cavalry was a bit scattered. It was only a few hundred paces away. How could the Tartar cavalry, who were proficient in horsemanship, lose control of the formation.

"Tiger crouching cannon to check the lead!!"

"One catty of cannon on the cart, adjust the angle of the rest of the cannon, and tell the leaders of the coachmen to take care of the cattle and horses, or else..."

Baihu Muen of the artillery team and Zhang Wu, the general banner, shouted in front of the formation. Originally, the space in the formation was not so spacious, and horseback riding was not allowed, but the artillery team was a special case. The heavy artillery was dragged and dragged. It's running back and forth on horseback, giving orders everywhere.

"Fire gunners and archers get on the car, get ready!!"

"Spearmen prepare according to the carts they belong to, and move quickly. The mutton has been full for the past few days, so why don't they have any strength? Hurry up!!"

Generals everywhere were yelling and issuing orders. Wang Tong pondered for a while, then leaned out from the watchtower and shouted:

"Mu En, the artillery is only allowed to use a one-jin cannon. If the enemy cavalry enters the range of the firecracker, then fire ten tiger crouching cannons."

Hearing Wang Tong's order, Mu En, who was still riding on the horse, was stunned, and the rein yanked suddenly, and he almost fell off the horse. He looked at Wang Tong upstairs, and saw Wang Tong's serious face. Only then did I realize that I heard correctly.

The effective range of a catty cannon is only 120 steps, and the damage is not great. The tiger squatting cannon is used to shoot elixir, and it pays attention to the enemy firing within [-] steps. This kind of shooting, the effective range of the firecracker is [-] to [-] steps. If you fire at this distance, there is no way to kill the enemy.

However, military orders are military orders, and Mu En and Zhang Wu almost shouted the orders, and the artillery soldiers who heard these orders were all stunned, and they didn't know why.

In the blink of an eye, the vanguard of the Tartar cavalry had arrived, and when they were a hundred and fifty or sixty paces away, muffled artillery roars began to sound from Ji Town.

There are Franc machine guns on the side vans. This kind of light gun has a short range. It is about 150 to [-] steps for a metal projectile of one catty or one and a half catties.

Launch within 150 paces, which is considered an effective range. Although the two positions are very far apart, the screams of the Tartar cavalry can still be heard clearly. Wang Tong actually saw these Tartars rushing towards the Huwei army formation from this position. The front team of cavalry also panicked.

The team opposite the Ming army cavalry is almost moving forward. They are like this, and the Ming army cavalry is naturally cautious. The banner of the standard bearer next to Ma Sanbiao is always straight to the sky, which is a signal to stay still.

"fire!!"

It was as if the big cowhide drum was beating, and the light cannons weighing one catty on the cart were fired one after another. The shells of the light cannons could even see the trajectory of him whizzing past. In some places people are densely gathered together, in some places they are loose.

Even if the Ming army only had bows and arrows, such a charge would be absurd. The loose side is okay, but the dense side will inevitably receive stronger blows, and the second wave of attacks will also concentrate on this side.

After being hit by shells, the horses fell directly to the ground, and the cavalry fell directly from the horses. After all, the density of the artillery was limited. A group of people fell, and more people rushed to the front.

Instead, the tiger crouching guns fired in the gap between the carts. Although the clouds of smoke exploded, they did not cause any damage. Within a distance of a hundred steps, the musketeers and archers on the cart could already see the cavalry's distorted posture. faces, and their deep fear and panic.

Most of the firecrackers are veterans, and many of them have participated in the battles outside Xuanfu and Gubeikou. The Tartar cavalry they face, especially those who rush to the front, often have excited and rampant faces. , there will be madness, and even indifference, but rarely such fear and panic.

Charging into battle is something only the most elite cavalry can do. If they panic, they may run away halfway through the same process, which will even affect the battle of their teammates and those behind them.

Some of these cavalry have escaped and fled, but in the state of charging, if you want to turn the mount that has already run fast, the end will be miserable. These mounts that don't look very strong will often fall directly. He fell to the ground and threw the cavalry on his back to the ground.

Even if some people were lucky enough to run out of the formation, they would be directly shot and killed by the elite cavalry in the middle.

Although they were wrong, the enemy is the enemy, and the firecrackers of the Huwei Army will not soften their hearts. Ninety steps...eighty steps, the vanguard cavalry of the Tartars had already entered within range.

"Fire!!"

With the shout of the general, the firecrackers fired like dense firecrackers, and the charging Tartar cavalry seemed to be blown by a metal storm, and all the men and horses fell to the ground.

On the other side of Ji Town, guns and guns were also fired, bird guns, three-eyed guns, Frang machine guns, and tiger squatting guns all fired, and the cavalry who rushed to their side all screamed and fell to the ground.

The firecrackers shooting on the cart, because the space on the cart is limited, there can only be two rows of firecrackers on the cart, and the rest of the firecrackers can only stand by under the cart, because there is a process of getting on the carriage from below, Shooting cannot form an uninterrupted burst of fire, and the cavalry has more opportunities to rush forward.

The Huwei army was still like this, and the firearms on the Ji Town side would be intermittent, so the pawns armed with spears and axes were ready, ready to use the wooden wall as a barrier to start hand-to-hand combat at any time.

But the Tartars who rushed up this time are really nothing to mention. When they rushed fifty steps away from the chariot formation, their courage seemed to be exhausted, and the large number of deaths of their companions gave them enough room to turn around. The speed of the mount is reduced to the point where it can turn.

Some of the Tartars were crying, some were yelling like crazy, and they turned away one after another. The gunmen of the Huwei Army saw this scene, and some of them even forgot to shoot in astonishment. The same is true of needlework.

The gunpowder smoke and chaos made everyone confused. The generals in the two positions were shouting and cursing loudly, so that the soldiers could react as soon as possible from their astonishment and prepare for battle.

The targets of the musketeers and the artillery were all slanted towards the middle, because the very calm Tartar cavalry over there was still moving forward slowly, and there were still two hundred steps away from the two army formations. The cavalry of the Ming army were facing each other, and they didn't see any intention of attacking at all.

"Woo~~~" A long horn sounded, and the Tartar cavalry in the middle turned around one after another and began to retreat. This behavior also stunned a group of people.
"...Wan Sheng!!!...Wan Sheng!!!"

There were bursts of cheers coming from the Ji Bing's position. Although the enemy who came this time was strange, the corpses lying there were real. The victory was a victory, which greatly boosted morale and cheered everyone up.

The atmosphere on the side of the Huwei army was also high-spirited. Before they could cheer, Wang Tong ordered loudly from the watchtower:
"Mu En, the artillery team is all ready, why are you so happy, this is just the beginning!!"

****************
"Honorable Lalike, the farthest distance for firearms in Ji Town on the left is 150 paces, and the furthest distance for firearms of the Ming Dynasty Imperial Army on the right is [-] paces."

Several men dressed in military generals surrounded a bearded man with a golden helmet. In Mongolian tribes, only the Khan and his immediate relatives could wear a golden helmet. Du Guleng had his first son at the age of 35.

Lalik pondered for a while, and said in a deep voice:

"Three hundred paces away from Jizhen's line...Although the Imperial Army's line is not far away, it's still three hundred paces away for safety's sake. Those fled wastes will be captured, and we will use them later!"
