The Khalkha people suffered huge casualties and finally rushed to a distance of 200 meters in the heavy storm.

The three hundred meters behind the lake was covered with casualties and a mess.

The cavalry army has 50,000 people, which is organized by the nine regiments of three divisions and twenty-seven battalions. Each battalion carried 18 camel cannons this time. Add to the headquarters artillery, more than 500 cannons.

If you shoot one shot, you will suffer at least five or six casualties.

The lethality of solid spherical bombs is terrifying against dense infantry formations.

One shot hits an empty line.

Fortunately, the camel cannon was charged with reduced doses and the range was only more than 500 meters. The projectile was only one pound.

Otherwise, if the twelve-pound cannon of the division, it could break through and destroy more than a dozen people, or even more than twenty people, in one line.

They were too thick to wear, stumbled, and the ice surface slipped again, and ran for two minutes in three hundred meters. This Fran machine cannon killed and injured at least seven or eight thousand people.

But there is no other way. The opponent has a long-range attack firearm, and their bows and arrows are too cold to use. They can only rush hard.

"Don't stop, rush over, rush over." He shouted loudly.

If it collapses at this time, casualties will be in vain.

In fact, he doesn't need to shout that everyone understands, only by rushing up can you get rid of passive beatings.

Now, you just turn your head and run back, and you have to run another 300 meters before you can run out of range. You have to throw people down on the ground.

"Rifleman is ready to open fire," An Sanxi said, putting down his telescope. "Let the camel cannon replace the grape shells and shotguns."

The musketeers immediately prepared to shoot. The artillerymen used this time gap to transport shotguns and grape bullets. These bullets were packed in wooden boxes of different colors and were piled behind the gun positions.

The gunners immediately rushed to the box behind the shells, where there were grape bullets and shotguns wrapped in sackcloths.

It is more appropriate to use grape bullets at a distance of 200 meters. Now it can be loaded and fired, and then it enters the range of the shotgun.

A grape bullet has about twenty steel balls. A small 50-gram ball has greater kinetic energy and lethality than a shotgun steel ball, and it also flies farther.

You can use the shotgun within 150 meters. One shotgun contains one hundred small steel balls, each weighing four.5 grams.

As the command of the military horn and waist drum was issued, the three rows of soldiers immediately carried the soldiers on their shoulders and put the rifles that had been bayonetized were placed flat.

The first row squatted down, the second row slumped, and the third row stood upright. The third row of muskets aimed at the crowd in the distance, and the crowd was surging.

The direct shooting distance of these flintlock rifles can reach 260 meters, but they generally do not fire so far because the accuracy is too poor. They usually shoot volleys within 200 meters, or even within 150 meters.

This is far ahead of this era. In this era, the musket array lines in Europe fired around 80 meters, and even deliberately carried the bullet rain to the front of the enemy's array lines thirty or forty meters, and then fired volleys, destroying the enemy with precise killing.

Because Yang Fan's flintlock rifle is already the highest-tech flintlock rifle, although it is still a smoothbore rifle, the barrels are made of boring machines. The bullets are still nail bullets, and the accuracy rate is greatly improved. Only then can you dare to fire so far.

These flintlock rifles are equipped with silk fixed-loading bullets, and the maximum rate of fire can reach six rounds in one minute. In the battlefield environment, there are various interferences and can guarantee no less than four rounds.

This rate of fire is far higher than the battlefield rate of fire of elite musketeers in Europe with two shots in three minutes.

Bang bang bang! The first row of musketeers opened fire.

A line of fire flashed, and a fifteen-mm large-caliber lead bullet ejected from the muzzle. In a blink of an eye, it arrived in front of the Khalkha people.

In the front of the crowd that flocked forward, people were beaten and fell forward, rolling and crawling to the ground, and even flying backwards. The kinetic energy of these lead bullets is very high.

Bang bang bang! The flintlock rifle in the second row opened fire again. Another group of people fell to the ground.

The Khalkhas were already crazy at this time. They were the last battle. They all knew that they could only fight this season. Because they could not live without the wintering camp. Leaving here in the severe cold is even more dangerous.

They rushed forward without hesitation regardless of the casualties.

Laihul's cheeks were shaking, and the casualties were too great.

But the flintlock gun fired too fast. They resisted four rounds of shooting. When they rushed to 100 meters, the camel cannon fired again. This time it was a grape bullet.

Five hundred cannons fired 10,000 small steel balls, with unprecedented density, far exceeding the previous spherical solid bullets.

Under the dense rain of bullets, the entire front row was zigzag. Each grape bullet would create a fan-shaped gap.

After one round of grape bullets, the rifle began a new round of three-stage shooting.

The Khalkha people stepped over the wounded and corpses on the ground that were knocked down, and continued to rush forward.

Finally, they rushed to a distance of fifty meters.

At this time, the camel cannon fired again. This time it was a shotgun. Each shotgun had a hundred small steel balls. The dense rain of bullets almost formed a barrage wall and pushed back horizontally.

The crowd that was hit was as if it was hit by a huge hammer and stopped moving forward instantly.

The entire row of people in front were pierced by shotguns and fell to the ground. These dense small steel balls made them into sieves, and they were finished before they could even scream.

At this distance, the rifle's fire speed suddenly accelerated and the camel cannon also began to fire rapidly. Three shotguns in twenty seconds were shot, hitting the head and face.

Thirty meters to fifty meters have become an insurmountable gap.

All those who rushed here were knocked to the ground, and the people behind them held small round shields and tried to block the shotgun, and then they used nothing.

Although the small steel ball is only 4.5 grams, it has a lot of momentum.

No matter how small the caliber gun is, it is not comparable to a rifle.

The corpses in front were constantly piled up, and even tripped the impacted crowd. However, there seemed to be an invisible wall in these twenty meters, blocking everyone.

They were knocked down in waves of shocks, almost insurmountable.

In such cold weather, the Fran machine cannon is a breech gun, which is ventilated front and back and dissipates heat quickly. It is impossible to overheat and stop shooting.

With the alternating shooting of artillery and rifles, it is impossible to rush over without effective bulletproof methods.

In fact, even Jiannu today has no way to deal with this kind of attack method of full firearm army.

Their car would be penetrated by a pound spherical solid bullet at a distance of 300 meters. The car could not block the shells at all, but could only block the musket bullets. Pushing the heavy car slowed down, and the fate would be worse than these Mongolians. Because it gave the other party a longer bombardment window.

An Sanxi rode on a fiery red camel and watched the Khalkha people indifferently make useless impacts.

He knew very well that there was the 28 phenomenon mentioned by the master in any army.

In other words, only 20% of the truly brave people are those who are entangled. They dare not not charge, but can only follow the crowd and run forward together.

This is why both cavalry and infantry must be uniform and arranged in an array of shocks. It is for the brave to dare not advance alone, and the cowardly to dare not retreat alone.

If you get angry, the brave people will rush to the forefront and will all be beaten to death.

Those who were just making up for the numbers, 80% of the people behind turned around and ran away.

In fact, once the war is unfavorable, most people are the easiest people to escape. It is the same everywhere.
