Chapter five hundred and sixty-eight of the traitor

"Woo woo woo woo..." Accompanied by the dull horn sounds on the battlefield, the six thousand Later Jin troops, like four huge chariots, drove out of their positions in a mighty way, heading towards the battlefield still filled with blood.·

However, the first thing Xie Hui saw on the battlefield was not the Han Baqi Musketeers holding muskets, but a row of very neat shield cars.

No, it is not so much a shield cart as a general cart for transporting food and grass. In order to prevent lead bullets, a thick wooden board was nailed on the front of the cart.

However, even so, these shield cars can block the lead bullets fired from the new tunnel musket of the Tiger and Leopard Army from a hundred steps away.

Faced with this sudden situation, Xie Hui, who had just shown joy in his face because of the formation of his chest wall, became solemn again.

Because the appearance of shield cars directly means that the Tartars can use these shield cars to rush directly to a position less than a hundred steps away from them.

Of course, you can also concentrate your artillery and destroy the shield chariot with flowering bullets before entering the range of the musket. However, in this way, the 6,000 offensive troops sent by the Tartars will not be hit by any blow before they are 150 steps away.

You should know that in the battle that just ended, even if the Tartars' offensive formation was very scattered, the artillery under its command caused at least a thousand casualties to the Tartars' offensive troops before 150 steps.

Xie Hui couldn't imagine that if there were no more than a thousand casualties, he would rush into the position under his feet at the last moment. The few soldiers under his command would be left in the end.

Therefore, the shelling that was 150 steps away from the position is crucial to the entire defense.

And now, the cunning Later Jin Tartars actually used shield chariots to put themselves in a dilemma and had to give up shelling the Tartars' offensive troops.

Thinking of this, Xie Hui, with a solemn expression, had to order helplessly: "The Tartars are too cunning, forcing us to use artillery to destroy their shield chariots... Order all artillery soldiers to destroy the shield chariots used by the Tartars to block lead bullets at the fastest firing speed."

"After finishing, concentrate artillery fire and shell the Tartars' offensive troops?"

"Now I hope that the chest wall and knife array we have worked hard to build can make up for the casualties that the artillery did not cause to the Tartars..."

On the small Tiger and Leopard Army position, Xie Hui's order had just been released. On the artillery positions that had assembled more than 100 mortars, gunners squatting on the ground were like machines that were winding up, and quickly began to adjust the muzzle.

Soon, the roaring cannon sounded at the artillery position.

The medium and heavy mortars of the Tartar shield can be reached in range. Just like an angry lion, completely ignoring the impact of continuous firing of the gun barrel, it continuously ejects the flower from the cannon chamber.

Soon, the shield chariots lined up in rows were shrouded in the free luck produced by the explosion of the flower bomb.

However, the shield car has no life. In addition, its rough wooden structure will cause a blow unless the flowering bullet hits directly or falls next to the shield car and explodes. Otherwise, there is no way to bring a fatal blow to the shield car.

Therefore, although the explosion of the flowering bullet on the battlefield was very dense, it was very violent.

However, the number of shield cars destroyed by these flowering bullets is only a handful.

The only thing that made Xie Hui feel thankful was that with the continuous attack of the Tartars, the hit rate of the Flower Bullets became higher and higher as they continued to attack, and of course, the number of shield cars destroyed by the Flower Bullets was also increasing.

Facing the attack, although the Tartar offensive troops had no way to fight back, they did not miss the opportunity to charge.

When they saw that the artillery fire of the Tiger and Leopard Army was concentrated on the shield chariot, they rarely encountered such Tartars and Han Eight Banners musketeers who had no artillery fire and were suddenly eaten. They were like they were pushing the shield chariot and charging forward desperately, reducing the time they might be bombarded by the Tiger and Leopard Army.

The Tartars' response to war is undoubtedly very useful.

When they rushed all the way to one hundred and forty steps from the Tiger and Leopard Army's position, the shield chariots blocking in front of them were completely destroyed.

During the entire attack, only 6,000 Later Jin troops had hundreds of Han Eight Banners who pushed the shield chariots, blocking the charge.

As for the two thousand iron cavalry with the strongest melee ability in the Later Jin army, almost no casualties were found.

Faced with this expected result, Xie Hui quickly ordered: "Architecturers, concentrate all artillery fire, and shell the Tatar cavalry... Musketeers, shoot immediately to block the musketeers of the Later Jin army..."

Xie Hui's order was very timely, but it did not achieve the expected results.

Perhaps the heavy casualties in the last attack shocked the Tartars too much. In this attack, the Tartar cavalry, whose formation was already scattered, became even more scattered at this moment in order to prevent the blooming bullets.

More than ten flowering bullets exploded in a round, and it took only a full plan to cause less than twenty casualties to the Tartar cavalry.

As for the results achieved by the musketeers, they were also very poor.

Although he lost the shield cart, the Tartar musketeers who had prepared a long time ago also prepared thousands of shields.

Although it cannot block the lead bullets shot from the musket from close range, it still has a great effect beyond a hundred steps.

Therefore, if the musketeers have more than 100 lead bullets per round, unless the blind cat hits the dead mouse, it will be difficult to bring a fatal blow to these musketeers within a hundred steps.

After seeing these situations, although Xie Hui was very anxious, he had no choice.

With everyone's anxious waiting, the Tartar musketeers finally rushed to a hundred steps away from the position.

As a new round of gunfire sounded, more than one hundred lead bullets roared out and flew towards the target. The shield held by the Tartars in their hands finally became a decoration.

The lead bullet that flies at high speed easily penetrates the shield with an inch thickness, and then pierces into the back of the shield with unabashed power, and the Han Baqi Musketeer's chest.

Perhaps it was because they believed in the shields in their hands too much, in order to better block the lead bullets. The musketeers holding the shields actually stood in a row, allowing the shields in their hands to form a shield wall in front of them.

And this leaves the Tiger and Leopard Army musketeers with a chance to shoot live targets.

Although there were not many lead bullets in a round, these lead bullets were biting meat, and none of them fell into nothing. In the blink of an eye, the dense shield wall fell down a whole row of Han Eight Banners Musketeers with more than 60 people.

Faced with the long-lost results in front of him, Xie Hui finally showed a smile on his tense face.

Then, with excitement on his face, he shouted: "Shoot, continue to shoot, and while these musketeers have not been dispersed, kill them as much as possible, and shoot immediately..."

Although opportunities are precious, they cannot last for too long.

After three rounds of lead bullets, the Han Baqi Musketeers who shot and killed two hundred people in a row, the musketeers gathered together finally realized something was wrong and quickly dispersed.

However, even so, every round of lead bullets fired by the Tiger and Leopard Army can still cause at least thirty people to kill these musketeers.

As the number of people accumulates, they still pay the price of almost 200 casualties when they rushed to the range of the old-fashioned musket in their hands.

At this time, the more than 500 Han Eight Banners musketeers left on the battlefield seemed to suddenly find a target of venting in anger. They raised the musket and pulled the trigger without hesitation at the Tiger and Leopard Army dozens of steps away.

In an instant, hundreds of lead bullets with the breath of death flew out of the barrel and flew towards the tiger and leopard army.

However, compared with the results achieved in the first attack on the Eight Banners of the Central Han Dynasty, this time it seemed very few.

There is only one reason, that is, a chest wall built with various corpses in front of the Tiger and Leopard Army.

The lead bullets shot by the Tartar musketeers could not hurt the Tiger and Leopard Army hiding behind the chest wall. The lead bullets shot by the Tiger and Leopard Army could easily kill the Tartar musketeers.

Compared with the two, the attacked Tiger and Leopard Army seemed to have taken tranquilizers, ignoring the lead bullets shot from the Tartars. Not only that, they also shot lead bullets forward with unprecedented shooting speed.

Under such circumstances, more than 500 Tartar musketeers paid a very heavy price for almost every step forward. The defending Tiger and Leopard Army, at least at present, still had no losses.

After paying more than a hundred people again, the Tartar musketeers who charged against the lead bullet finally rushed into the range of grenade damage.

Faced with the enemy close to you, the Tiger and Leopard Army, with limited troops, had to separate a pair of musketeers to drop bombs.

At this time, the problem of insufficient military strength of the Tiger and Leopard Army was completely revealed.

After the musketeers were assigned to drop bombs, the grenades that kept landing in front of the position were very dense, although they were just as dense as the attack. However, the remaining musketeers shot a lot less lead bullets.

In addition, there were more than 400 Musketeers at this time, far exceeding the previous round of attacks.

In the end, more than a hundred musketeers still broke through the grenade interception and appeared in front of the Tiger and Leopard Army.

More than a hundred musketeers who had just shown a smile on their faces after the disaster did not directly attack the Tiger and Leopard Army, facing the Tiger and Leopard Army, continued to face the lead bullets shot from the Tiger and Leopard Army, and used their own body to clear a passage for the subsequent Tartar cavalry on the battlefield where horse nails were mixed everywhere.

Not only that, there are also some musketeers who hide directly behind the chest wall, destroying the chest wall, and opening gaps on the chest wall that can allow cavalry to pass quickly.

Faced with this situation, the commander Xie Hui was shocked in his heart that these traitors were not idle when they were afraid of death on the battlefield.

Because, who was in control of the entire battle situation, he knew very well that the importance of the chest wall in front of him was insufficient.

It can be said that with the chest wall in front of me and the saber barbarian behind my chest wall, I can win at least one hundred Tartars. In this way, my hope of winning will increase a lot in this battle.

However, if the chest wall is destroyed, more than a hundred cavalry who should have died on the charge road will rush into the position under their feet.
