Chapter Fourteen: The Battle of Baiyanghe (Part 2)

The smoke of gunpowder filled the sky, the corpse was everywhere, and a solemn aura floating on the battlefield.

Wu Anbang looked at the neat gun array, and somehow suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

Looking at the battle formation opposite, Zhao Yan was not in a hurry. If they didn't rush, they would just use muskets to grind it slowly. Anyway, this time I came out, I brought a lot of ammunition.

Suddenly, the government army on the opposite side shouted and launched a collective charge.

The retreat was cut off, and the official army could only rush! This was a battle against the enemy.

“The second row is in place…”

"shooting……"

Amid the call, the three rows of musketeers kept repeating the procedures of loading, shooting, and returning the loading, just like a machine.

Some people kept falling down in the rushing army.

But the official army that fought against the enemy obviously showed enough courage and continued to advance bravely under the continuous attacks of volleyball.

It's approaching!

The official army entered the trotting stage a hundred meters away. They lined up in dense formations, and each shot could cause them a large number of casualties.

He fell to the ground by the officers and soldiers behind him.

Move forward in fear!

Soon the official army advanced 50 meters away and entered the sprint stage.

"kill……"

Amid the shocking shouts, the officers and soldiers, whose numbers had dropped to more than 2,000, waved their weapons and collided towards Zhao Yan's first battalion.

"Retreat." With the command of the musket company, the musket soldiers quickly retreated from three passages, part of which entered the square formation, drew their waist knives and were next to the spearmen in the first row.

Although the muskets of the first battalion were sufficient, the musketeers' waist knives were not enough to equip all musketeers, and most of the waist knives were first equipped for the second battalion.

Only half of the musketeers were equipped with waist knives, and the other musketeers could only do nothing behind the formation.

The musketeers entering the phalanx will not affect the attack of the second row of spearmen. Each spearmen has a gap of half a human-wide, which can accommodate a musketeer and leave enough attack space.

"Flat gun."

With a "huh", the spears in the front two rows were immediately flat and aimed at the officers and soldiers rushing in front. The officers and soldiers who rushed in the front saw the two rows of pointed spear heads waiting for them to hit, their feet were shrinking and their speed slowed down a little. But they couldn't rush, and the ones behind were rushing.

"Swish swish..." Suddenly, a sound of breaking through the air sounded, and some officers and soldiers felt a darkness on their heads, but when they looked up, they saw a wave of arrow feathers falling from the sky.

"Ah~!" Screams were endless, and heavy arrows nearly one meter long were inserted on the ground, and some officers and soldiers were staring at the heavy arrows and wailing.

All the officers and soldiers who saw this scene felt a chill in their hearts.

Only in a moment later, the two armies finally entered the stage of hand-to-hand combat. The official army, with their common surname, crashed into the gun formation, and the official army in front was immediately stabbed to the ground.

Just like a mechanically operated machine, ignoring the threat brought by the official army, the mechanically slammed the enemy in front of them.

A spearman must have a determination to die. No matter how strong the enemy is, he will not be moved.

Although it has not been a long time since the army was formed, this belief has unknowingly penetrated into their bones, but it is more of the constraints of military law and the pensions after the death.

The spearmen cannot stab every enemy, and there are still fish that escaped from the net and rushed in. The first row of spearmen's escaped from the net and the second row is solved. If they are still rushed in, the musketeers will fight with them in close combat.

With the cooperation of the spearmen and the melee musketeers, a relatively tight line of defense was combined. One by one, the officers and soldiers fell under the spears, and even if they rushed into the gun array, they still could not achieve effective close-up.

The longbowmen behind were constantly shooting to relieve the pressure on the pikes in front.

Under various factors, a line of defense that is as strong as a stone is formed. No matter how the official army attacks, it is difficult to even touch the other party's body.

The god of death is not aimed at the person in front, and the officials behind are always at risk of being attacked by arrow rain.

The rain of arrows like a leech would make anyone feel weak under the arrow feathers and tremble uncontrollably.

"Kill!" A hundred household shouted hard, regardless of the heinran of the gun formation, and hit him head-on. Unfortunately, before he could rush into the gun formation, he was stabbed in the chest by a spearman. The armor on his body did not block the spearhead, and it was pierced like a destruction.

Baihu, who had lost his strength, fell to the ground, his whole body seemed to be exhausted, and blood kept flowing in his chest. He looked back at the last moment of his life, and saw the figure behind him gradually retreating... blurred...

The cruel hand-to-hand combat, a solid line of defense like a rock, finally could not bear such a hopeless battle and collapsed.

The moment the first officer and soldier turned around and ran away, the defeat spread rapidly.

The cavalry on both wings of the square formation suddenly launched a charge and rushed into the formation in the chaos.

The defeat was like a mountain of defeat, and no one went to resist the cavalry that rushed into the formation, but instead rushed to escape. More than 100 cavalry from the cavalry battalion easily passed through the formation.

Although not many people were killed, the formation of the official army was even more chaotic. The cavalry's mission was not to kill people, but to cause chaos.

The loud charge suddenly sounded, and two pike soldiers in a horizontal line gave up the neat queue and launched the charge directly.

"Kneel down and don't kill!"

"Kneel down and don't kill..."

The shouts filled the entire battlefield, and this sentence has become a common saying. Once the charge stage of abandoning the formation is entered, it indicates that the enemy has been defeated and the enemy will no longer be able to stop an effective counterattack. The main task at this moment is to capture the enemy and capture it for labor reform...

After all, Wu Anbang has been through a long battle. Although he has not learned much in fighting, he has learned a lot in running away. When he was defeated, Wu Anbang was very straightforward and decisive, and led more than 100 cavalry directly to the south.

If the back path is broken, running back will be a dead end.

Run north and the river goes directly into the sea, which is also a dead end. Only by running south and Qixia is the south of the river, where the source of the river is where you can bypass it directly.

Some officers and soldiers heard the shouts and knelt on the ground dejectedly, leaving everything to fate. Most of them wanted to run away, so they ran to the ferry in a hurry.

It was found that the boat at the ferry had been burned and there were no boats! Some officers and soldiers threw their weapons directly into the Baiyang River regardless of the cold river water.

When they swam across the Baiyang River, they were facing the cavalry led by Lin Yi, and the sabre of cold as autumn water was facing them.

"Kneel down and don't kill..."
