Chapter 215 Battle
Bang bang bang bang.
At about one hundred and fifty steps, the firearm camp shot.
"The rattan player stands in front of the formation! rush over!" the thief commander shouted.
The rattan players quickly squeezed to the front, but they couldn't defend against the officers and soldiers' firearms. Those who were hit by lead bullets fell one by one. Fortunately, the distance was far enough, and at a distance of one hundred steps, the firearms had very poor accuracy. Even when they were fired by gunfire, there were still not many people who could shoot.
"Bow and arrow, where are the fucking arrows? Shoot me!" The thief commander shouted. He was very anxious. Now they were passively beaten.
"General, our bows and arrows cannot be shot at such a long distance!" a personal soldier said anxiously.
"What, all her damn is useless!" The thief said anxiously and angry, "Hurry up, let the forwards and charge, and the archers shoot from behind."
Luo Rucai's front camp was full of infantry soldiers, and he was not running fast. The closer he got to the Ming army camp, the greater the casualties they suffered. His soldiers fell down dozens or hundreds of people from time to time. Moreover, the opponent's firearm was not the ones they knew. The firearm's firing rate was very fast and not much slower than bows and arrows.
"Damn it, it's not a solution to be beaten like this. The troops from the vanguard camp rushed over and killed them all together!" The thief commander ordered.
Luo Rucai's vanguard army began to move, and some troops guarding the cavalry were left on both wings, and the main force began to attack the firearm battalion.
The refugees began to run desperately towards the firearm camp, shouting loudly. When they ran to nearly fifty steps, a scene of shocking the thief vanguard's vanguard's commander appeared. Their people began to have rows of casualties, and hundreds of people fell down at once. These casualties completely shocked these people. Even if they were bows and arrows, such scenes would not be possible.
But it's only fifty steps!
"Roar! As long as we stick to the Guanjun, their firearms will be useless!" The thief commander yelled, and drove the people in front to continue moving forward.
In just a hundred steps, thousands of casualties occurred in their vanguard battalion, but even with such a large casualties, they still couldn't listen. The thief commander of the vanguard battalion knew that the vanguard battalion used the lives of rebel soldiers to attract and consume firepower. And there were only fifty steps left, and even thousands of casualties were worth it. As long as they were stuck, the main force behind would follow and they could eat the Ming army at that time.
Even though there were rows of people falling down, there were still black crowds running towards the firearm camp. At this time, these peasant troops did not have a collapse in morale, but were highly motivated. Everyone had a consensus that as long as they could rush into the Ming army's battle formation, victory would be theirs, and such victory would only be dozens of steps left.
"Order everyone to ignite the fire!" Yang Jiuyi said coldly.
At about twenty steps, a swarm of fire ignited, and thousands of arrows with flames ran out at the tail. The picture was extremely spectacular. Each rocket drew a black smoke trajectory. The front row of the firearm battalion was instantly covered by smoke, and the visibility was only ten steps!
Looking at the straight lines of flames flying out, thousands of smoke pillars, like thousands of horses galloping, rushing to the forefront, and their targets were those treacherous thieves, those with ferocious faces but also full of vicissitudes of life. At the handover between the two armies, they were completely covered by the black smoke that had survived. People in the distance did not know what was going on under the black smoke.
Chen Daquan was surprised and couldn't stop talking, staring at the black smoke in the sky, and said to himself: "In this life, those who can see such a scene will definitely not be in vain!"
"Yes, this smoke is much stronger than the smoke of my dry tobacco!" Song Xiance said in a daze. Every time he saw such a scene, he liked to watch it very much. It was a kind of fireworks, but it looked better than fireworks.
"This is the art of war!" Qin Yiming said happily.
"It's very beautiful, it's just that it costs too much money. I don't know how much money it will cost in this round!" The little monkey said with pain.
The Qin Yiming army had such a powerful weapon, which greatly improved the morale of the entire square soldiers. Everyone can see this scene that if they had such a firearm, would they lose to these rioters?
The black smoke dissipated, and a large area was lying on the ground. Some were dead, some were still struggling, some were shot through by arrows, and some were lying on the ground in pain. In this era, being shot through by arrows, basically waiting for death.
The thief's forward had already disintegrated. At that moment, the momentum of thousands of arrows was enough to scare the courage of the thief who were originally professional farmers!
"General, this Ming army is so powerful that our people cannot get close to you!" said Luo Rucai's personal soldiers.
Luo Rucai was also very anxious. This was the first time he had seen such a powerful firearm. He expected that he had lost three or four thousand people. In just half an hour, he had lost thousands of people!
"Renovation, after half an hour, I rushed there. Where did Qin Yiming get such good equipment? We have also seen this firearm, but we didn't expect that there would be such a powerful firearm, but I think they should have almost used up!"
Sun Kewang had seen these firearms. When he saw the large-scale casualties of Luo Rucai's vanguard battalion, he felt that using human lives was not a good way to consume it, so he came over to discuss with Luo Rucai.
"General Luo, Ming's arms also have their weaknesses. They are lined up. I think we can try to attack their wings!"
Luo Rucai also saw that attacking the flanks is a good way. Since the firearms are lined up, the flanks are their weakness. But the problem is that the flanks are protected by cavalry, how can they attack?
"It's not that easy to wing. The left wing of the Ming army is protected by cavalry. I think it's better to attack the enemy's right wing. Those right wings seem to be some shield soldiers!"
"General, give me the cavalry on the left wing and the shield soldiers on the right wing to the general's old camp. As long as we have a battalion, it means we have won this battle."
"good!"
Half an hour later, the bandit's war drums were beaten again. Luo Rucai attacked in three ways this time, with the vanguard battalion in the middle. Sun Kewang on the left wing led two thousand cavalry, and the right wing was the direction of Luo Rucai's focus on attack. He sent all his old battalion, and the right wing of the Ming army had only more than one thousand shield soldiers. He believed that his old battalion could defeat these people, and then penetrate Qin Yiming's entire battle formation and capture Qin Yiming alive!
On the Ming army, Qin Yiming used the firearm battalion as the front army. The firearm battalion was fierce, and he felt that there was no big problem. The left wing was Ai Wannian and the two thousand cavalry as fierce as a tiger, the right wing was one thousand shield soldiers of the big bull, and the middle wing was the long spear battalion.
"Cao Cao is smart now. Now he attacks in three ways. Only in this way can he fully utilize their military strength advantages!" Song Xiance's smoke ghost had a look of worry on his face.
Even if Chen Daquan doesn't understand military affairs, he can see that this time it is dangerous. A large number of thieves came to the right of the thief, but there are only more than a thousand people on the side of Daniu. How can they resist it by blocking ten?
"General Qin, isn't he going to be too arrogant this time? Why don't Commander Li's assistant cross the river from the camp and be our reinforcements?"
"The Xiecong Battalion is not reliable. I dare not use these people before we win this time. If we lose this time, the Xiecong Battalion will definitely rebel!"
"But our right wing is very dangerous, there are so many thieves!" Chen Daquan said worriedly.
Qin Yiming looked at the tall back on the right wing in the distance and said, "Don't worry, the big bull can fight! And we still have thousands of spearmen, so Chen Jianjun doesn't have to worry!"
Feng Ruhu and Ai Wannian were on the left wing, watching Sun Kewang's cavalry swaying on the left wing of the formation, Feng Ruhu said: "Commander Ai, I'll deal with this thief, how about you stay and guard the left wing?"
"My commander, I'll go!"
"You are the direct descendant of Lord Qin. You will have many opportunities to make meritorious and promote me in the future. Let me give it to me this time!" Meng Ruhu said with a smile.
"Okay, please be careful with the commander, I will support you later!"
"Meng has recorded the kindness of Commander Ai. Brothers, kill me." Meng Ruyi slashed the horse's back and rushed towards Sun Kewang first.
On the right side of the thief, the old camp with more than 10,000 people was slowly approaching, and the big bull pushed his shield forward fifty steps, ready to face the battle!
The first ones to exchange fire were the Ming army's firearms battalion and the thief's battalion. The people in the thief's battalion had rattan cards that could not protect themselves. Some of them pushed the grain carts and hid behind the grain carts. But even so, there were still a lot of casualties. However, the thieves had bunkers to hide and were still moving forward steadily.
When another round of swarms were gathering together, the entire firearm battalion was covered with black smoke, and the firearm hands in the front row could not see the enemy, but it did not affect their platoon shooting. They continued to shoot one round after another.
When the smoke began to weaken slowly and his vision slowly recovered, some people began to see the wooden grain trucks still moving, and many thieves hid behind the grain trucks.
"The thief is approaching, prepare the ** bag, prepare the ** bag!" the flag bearer shouted.
The auxiliary soldiers behind the firearm battalion were busy. They distributed the bags that had been prepared long ago, including those wooden barrels, and a large number of swarms, as well as these bags, which were all responsible for moving the front line.
“Stop the bag!”
After ignition, the bags wrapped in cotton cloth were thrown out by the baggage hand. The bag contained tin oil and black bags. This bag was very dangerous. If the operation was improper, it was very likely to explode in advance and cause fire to burn the body.
Hundreds of **bags were thrown into the black smoke. The black smoke exploded, countless fires dispersed, and screamed in the black smoke. Many grain trucks were also burned, and they showed no sign of moving forward.
When his vision recovered, Yang Jiuyi clearly saw that most of the grain trucks were burning, and the attack of the thief vans' forward battalion was repelled, leaving only a large number of corpses.
Yang Jiuyi glanced at the entire battlefield. What he was worried about now was his right wing, and there were a large number of thieves approaching the big bull's shield camp!
