Chapter 73 [Strong and strong alliance]

Fifty flintlocks, one Remington shotgun, three revolvers, and one black star, gather fire at the same time. The unprecedented powerful firepower was first displayed at Chikan Beach, Xiangshan in late April 1279.

Nearly 400 Mongolian Yuan soldiers (originally 500, one team stationed to control Majiazhuang, and one team suffered casualties and losses) were caught off guard and suffered this violent blow.

The bullets were swept wildly, the red fog was filled with blood and flesh, and the corpse was covered with pillows.

The first strike knocked down more than 30 Yuan soldiers, allowing this peak cold weapon army that had conquered Jiangnan with a hard bow and fast horse to learn about what a gunfire rain was. The next second and third wave of concentrated shooting allowed Yuan soldiers to understand what Pei Mounan was. The Yuan soldiers who were dazed were instinctively looking for reefs to avoid, but they had no way to hide because the musket team stood on the reef and shot from a high place. They could only act as targets behind the reefs and saved experience points for the white-clothed guards. They could not hide, but they had no way to block them, because neither the side cards nor the armor could stop the close-range muskets from shooting violently.

In fighting, being beaten to the point where he could not repay his hands was called "only the ability to fight back but no power to fight back." Now the Mongolian Yuan army was beaten to the point where he lost his ability to fight back. What about the power to fight back? Those who tried to pull the bow and fight back were usually given priority for musketeers, and were often shot by seven or eight muskets, so they were also the fastest dead person.

After three waves of fire shooting, the Yuan soldiers collapsed, like a wave rolling back, leaving behind a mess. The intense horns, the threat of the swords and axes of the officials of the Baihu and the heads of the signs could not stop the collapse of the Yuan soldiers. In the end, even the Baihu and the heads of the signs ran away - they would not run behind as a target!

After the Yuan soldiers collapsed, with Zhao Lie's whistle, the white-clothed guards changed from concentrated shooting to scattering, freely loading and shooting, and continuously harvested the lives of the Yuan soldiers. Many white-clothed guards who were eager to make contributions even ignored them and jumped up to find a high reef, aiming at the Mongolian Qianhu pulling plate machine under the Yuan army flag in the distance, with a feathered armor under the Yuan army flag in the distance, and the iron ring corrugated hat on their heads, which was of course futile. The flintlock smoothbore gun is not a weapon for accurate shooting, and its lethality comes from intensive shooting. It is not a natural hunter who has excellent talent. He should not use this old-fashioned hunter to play sniper with such old-fashioned guns. Take a step back, even if you really aim, can you hit it? Two hundred steps are more than twice the effective range of the flintlock gun, unless you are so lucky that you have a burst of eyes, and the stray bullets have eyes - it is obvious that these white-clothed guards do not have such good luck.

Saliman did not want to use his life to bet on the luck of the White-Yellow Guard. Seeing that the enemy's strong support had arrived, the collapse and rolling of the headquarters was unstoppable. The 16-year-old man went to the battle with Kublai Khan to fight Alibuge. For more than ten years, the long-time general who had been in dozens of battles in the battlefield decisively ordered the flag to be rolled to conquer the defeated troops. He retreated slowly while reuniting and quickly disappeared into the woods.

The white-clothed guards chased the woods and drove the Yuan soldiers across a mountain before stopping at the whistle and starting to clear the battlefield.

The Battle of Chikan Beach was the first head-on confrontation between the musket troops and the established Mongolian and Yuan army. The troops of both sides were about 1:8, and the Yuan army had an absolute advantage. The White-Clothed Guard had just five days after only five days of getting the musket. After only a very short period of training, he even defeated the Yuan army. It has to be said that it is surprising and amazing.

"Hahaha! Happy! Happy!" Jiang Fenglie held a blood-stained sword in his right hand and waved the imitation black star in his left hand, smiling happily, "I remember that in the battle of Lianhua Shandong Dongling, hundreds of us were almost destroyed by Liu Zili's third-rate new affiliated army. It was all up to the Zhao Dutong to attack Zhang Gui at night and divert the tiger from the mountain. We were only able to take off. Today, my White Guard only had fifty people, confronting hundreds of Mongolian Yuan Tartars, and killed nearly a hundred of them, causing them to be defeated. Compared with the previous and after, it was really unbelievable. Such a huge difference in the battle results are all due to the musket weapon given by Zhao Dutong. I have decided..."

When Jiang Fenglie said this, he glanced at Ouyang Guanhou beside him, and the latter nodded firmly. Jiang Fenglie inserted the blood-stained sword to the ground, imitating the black star and put his waist on his waist, hugged his hands together, and paused his head: "From now on, Jiang Fenglie and Zhongshun Army are willing to join the Dragon Que Army, and everything is only followed by the order of Zhao Dutong."

Zhao Lie smiled. Jiang Fenglie had tasted the sweetness and was reluctant to give up.

Zhao Lie used the iron ingots provided by Xingchao, recruited the master craftsmen of Xingchao, and provided gun making patterns, a disc-type manual puncher and flintlock rifle (via gun) bolt mold, which allowed fifty flintlock rifle to be made in just a few days.

After equipping the musket with the white guards, he only had three days of training and set off urgently. While sailing, he strengthened loading and practiced target shooting on the ship. The whole process was only five days in total. Fortunately, the white guards were all soldiers who had been strictly trained. They could save these, and even the most difficult level - the musket array was a frontal striking enemy, which was no problem for these soldiers who had experienced the battlefield. It can be said that they only need to skillfully load ammunition and add a certain amount of live ammunition to shoot, and they can quickly form combat power.

Facts have proved this. Not a single musket team of fifty people can defeat a 400-man Mengyuan army - even a double-squad, the double-straight team is not possible. Of course, it is a different matter to install guns after full equipment.

Fifty guns were not given casually. This was a survey by Zhao Lie. Jiang Fenglie had this awareness since the day he accepted the new weapons and new tactics. In fact, Jiang Fenglie had this idea when he went to the mountain to find Zhao Lie for the first time, but at that time he wanted to take Zhao Lie as his subordinate, but at this time he asked for his own command.

Zhao Lie has a gun but no one is there, while Jiang Fenglie has a gun but no one is there. The two of them join forces, which is suitable for each other.

Zhao Lie smiled and said, "Okay, I will report to the Empress Dowager Ming, please transfer Brother Jiang to the second place of the Dragon Que Army." Zhao Lie is the commander of the Dragon Que Army, and "the second place of the Dragon Que Army" is the deputy commander. This official is more than Jiang Fenglie's position as the commander of the Zhongshun Army, which is worthy of him.

Even though Jiang Feng was calm and composed, he couldn't help but be happy. Of course, he did not lose his composure for a mere "deputy commander". This official was quite powerful in the early and middle stages of the dynasty, and his power was in conjunction with the comfort envoy, but at the end, he had a lot of money left. What really made Jiang Fenglie happy was that this not only meant that the Jiang family Zhongshun army would become the first fully equipped firearm unit of the Song army, with its combat power soaring, but more importantly, it was marked by the Dragon Que Army and Zhao Lie.

Yes, Zhao Lie's mark.

The reason why Jiang Fenglie was willing to incorporate the Zhongshun Army of the Jiang family into the Longque Army was, in addition to the invincibility of the two sides, more importantly, Jiang Fenglie was optimistic about him, Zhao Mengbei - yes, he was optimistic about the royal family member Zhao Mengbei, not just Zhao Lie and his arsenal.

At present, except for Empress Dowager Yang, who "will not believe in tears", who would hope that there will be another miracle to restore the young emperor? If the country loses its lord, a new lord will be established. This is a matter of time. The new lord will definitely emerge from the royal family, and the most eye-catching royal family in the dynasty is Zhao Lie. It can be said that if Zhao Lie was not nineteen years old (Zhao Lie is actually twenty-one, if Zhao Mengbei is alive, it will be nineteen, and the gap between two years is basically impossible to see), but nine years old, Empress Dowager Yang would have been adopted as prince and crown prince long ago - even if the empress dowager was reluctant, the ministers would force her to do so.

There were many examples of the Song Dynasty that took the royal family and finally ascended the throne as the crown prince, but there was an unwritten rule: it was necessary to inherit the family as a child, and there was basically no chance of adulthood. If the current dynasty was forced to end the country and the royal family withered, everything was possible, and Jiang Fenglie and others would not have such thoughts.

Even Jiang Fenglie and Ouyang Guanhou could think of this. As a royal family, he would have thought about this earlier. However, Zhao Liezhen did not have the conscience of heaven and earth. The reason is very simple. He just pretended to be a relative of the royal family and did not have that sense of character immersion. What's more, he had always thought of leaving before, and Yang Fan and Sihai had never thought of staying on the broken ship that was leaking everywhere.

The reason why Zhao Lie took out technical equipment to build guns and equip the White Guards this time was because his trip to Guangya also touched him a little bit. Wen Tianxiang, Zhang Shijie, Su Liuyi, Chen Yizhong, and Ma Nanbao, who rescued this time, these heroes of the late Song Dynasty who never compromised and never gave up made him sincerely admire him, and he felt that he would be sad if he didn't help him. Jiang Fenglie was a good man with similar intentions, and he had another ready-made loyal private army, so let's start with arming him.

"Brother Zhao——"

"Captain Zhao!"
