"After loading the medicine, hold the gun on the top of your hand, lean on your tail on your legs, use your right hand to take the fuse, blow away the ashes first, and put them in the faucet."

On the beach, a queue of Huben Town Muskets were training in full swing under the command of the instructor.

Li Daoan led the main force of Weiwu Town to the central plain. The Huben Town left behind did nothing, so the Shenji Association was naturally pulled to the beach along the coast by Liu Yu to train.

"Put the rope, hold the front foot, kneel down, raise the gun, hold the left hand, hold the knee of the armpit, tightly clamp the armpit with the back, close the left eye, look at the door with the right eye, look at the front star, close the breath, aim at the enemy, and then pinch the machine." A musket official ordered.

A team of musketeers listened to the instructor's cumbersome and profound instructions, and couldn't help but get confused and fiddled with the musketeer in panic.

The Shenji Association adopted the four musket gates, which also referred to the original standards of the Ming army's firearms troops.

One person fires the gun, and three people load the gun.

Since the Divine Machinery Association was not long after it was established, the masters of firearms were just twenty musketeers transferred from their uncle.

There were not many musketeers who were really good at operating muskets at that time.

After the battle of Mingcheng, especially the battle of attacking Spanish camps at night,

The soldiers of the First Association and the Second Association have experienced the actual battle of blood and fire.

Both the musketeers and the loaders have received valuable training. However, due to the tight time and insufficient firearms, Liu Yu did not allow the loaders to practice using the musketeers, nor did he let the loaders systematically practice firing the guns.

For gun holders,

Whether it is fired or loaded, it is one.

On the battlefield, due to the disadvantages of slow firing speed and complicated loading of muskets, musket teams often need to divide the work and cooperate.

For example, one person fires a gun and three people load a gun.

All four of them held muskets, but only one person was actually blocking the guns in front of them.

The other three people loaded their muskets,

This leads to gunfire users often having excellent shooting skills and slow loading.

The loader is good at loading muskets, but is not good at using muskets.

And the battlefield is changing rapidly,

Although there were three shooting methods in the Ming Dynasty and had defeated Mongolian cavalry with this tactic, they often failed to perform as they should have done in the face of the more fierce Jianzhou Jurchens.

For example, when on the battlefield in Liaodong, the Ming army often placed veterans in the first three rows, especially the first row, while novices or those who use bad guns acted as loaders.

This is understandable in itself,

The firearms in the 17th century were far inferior to modern thermal weapons. In addition, the lack of military equipment in the late Ming Dynasty and the large number of muskets cut corners, which greatly reduced their power.

I can only rely on my veterans to support the storefront.

But the problem is that the Jurchen cavalry often shoots arrows outside the range of the Ming army's muskets, and the Jurchens' strong bows can often suppress the Ming army in the first wave.

Countless good gunmen who were placed on the front line died before the Jurchens could enter the range.

Only when the elite Ming army's musketeers died almost, the Jurchens would launch a charge.

At this moment, the musketeers who took over the front were loaders, and their character was far inferior to those of the previous veterans.

Watching the sound of the iron cavalry sweeping over like rolling thunder,

The fear in his heart can be imagined.

Often, before entering the effective killing range, fire is fired randomly.

It is no threat to the Jurchen cavalry wearing chain mail.

This is also why the Shenji Camp, which obviously made the Mongolian cavalry cry and moan cry more than two hundred years ago, was useless in the late Ming Dynasty.

Natural disasters continue to cause man-made disasters,

The musketeers do not need enough practice, so how can they talk about going to fight to kill the enemy?

This is what Liu Yu needs to avoid now.

He hopes that all the soldiers in Huben Town can use muskets skillfully, after all, this thing depends on eyesight and feel.

Not only is the lack of practice in the original military gunboats,

The newly recruited soldiers were just fishermen or farmer who plowed the fields.

I don't know anything about firearms and warfare terms.

The veterans present were so angry that they cursed, and they all went into battle with their naked arms.

"Let me!" with a low shout.

On the beach, rays of fire suddenly appeared.

"Bang……"

A ball of black smoke resounded along the seaside with the rolling thunder, which shocked countless birds to spread their wings and fly high.

The silver wings covered the sky, and the soldiers present were so shocked that they exclaimed repeatedly.

After several days of practice,

The advantages of the musket are clearly revealed.

However, a few days ago, a group of farmers who only know how to farm can also be used to hold muskets and shoot them in a very good manner.

It takes roughly several years to train a good archer, but it takes only several months to train a qualified musketeer.

Liu Yu stood on the sand dune and looked down from a high place to look at the busy firearms team not far away.

I couldn't help but smile bitterly,

Even if the Ming army today cannot form an effective formation, at least it is possible to line up and shoot it.

"Put your left arm close to the ribs, hold your hand in front, straighten your front foot, and fist at the back foot, either minus eight, like a white pole." "The pinch machine will be used!"

"put!"

Another low shout,

Widths of black smoke filled the beach, and blood stains fell from the sky.

The silver light soaked with bright red blood stains fell sharply from the air, causing the Ming army present to cheer.

The practice of the Ming army's musketeers can often attract the attention of countless friendly troops. After all, when practicing the Ming army's musketeers, due to different tactics, the distance of the gun is often significantly different in the target shooting distance.

Compared to stationary objects like the target, killing seabirds can make the Ming army veteran feel more exciting.

Luzon is located in the tropical region, with numerous seabirds of various types inhabiting countless sizes.

The gunshots are together, countless sea birds cover the sky,

For veterans, they can shoot down with dozens of steps away from them.

For novices, it is Liu Yu's idea to catch a dense flock of seabirds.

The dense flock of birds is more like a group of cavalry charging.

There is no need to test the musketman's eyesight and marksmanship, but the gutsman's courage and mentality are considered.

Silver wings cover the sky,

If the gunner is calm and calm, there is no need to compare and then the kneading machine will make a move, and everything will be correct.

The good target shooting practice was regarded as hunting by veterans and novices in the Ming army.

As the gunshot passed,

A large number of Ming troops rushed into the rolling black smoke, picked up the still-thrusting seabirds, and then scattered again.

The musketeers present were so angry that they cursed.

At this time, the Ming army had more than 600 muskets of various types, with more than ten different types under their jurisdiction.

As for the more than forty Folang Jiman muskets seized, Liu Yu waved his pen and directly assigned them to the First Association.

In that battle, the Ming army's Shenji Association fought too hard, and pressed the Spanish musket team to output.

As a result, the fight was too fierce and even a Spanish musketeer was not captured.

Looking at the captured Spanish flintlock rifle, the Ming army could only use its original use of the musket.

After all, whether it is the self-generated musket or the Spanish smoothbore flintlock gun, the general structure is the same. As for the usage of the musket and the corresponding queue tactics,

If your Folang Ji people are really advanced than my Ming Dynasty, they will not be wiped out.

In short, with my conviction about the Ming army's musket tactics, the Ming army used the Folang Jiren's muskets to shoot randomly with the original tactics.

It's true,

Whether it was the use of the musket or the power and accuracy of the musket, the Ming army muskets present were shocked.

Twenty steps away from holding the gun, facing the armor,

When several guns were fired, all the armors were broken.

This surprised the Ming army's musketeers.

You should know that although the self-generated muskets they hold in their hands are not afraid of rain and release them when they lift the gun, their accuracy is still not as accurate as that of the mezzanine gun.

Moreover, the attack was difficult to turn. When the Folang Jiren camp was attacked at night, it was only firing more than ten steps away from the Folang Jiren Musketeers.

Just to worry about the accuracy of the musket.
