During the scattered war, Japanese pirates who lacked similar training and were not professional in their equipment were beaten to the point of being beaten to death. Some people kept falling to the ground by arrows, and even tripping their companions.

The Japanese pirates' attack formation became even more chaotic. The ronin in front was still walking fast, but the ordinary pirates behind began to hesitate. Many people were walking and actually got to the back row.

"No retreat is allowed!"

With a angrily shout, several Japanese pirates who were walking in the end separated.

The commander of the Japanese pirates rushed to the battlefield with more than twenty bald men wearing bamboo and wooden armor and holding young swords.

These strong men are the most trusted soldiers of the sect and Japanese pirate commanders. They are outstanding among the pirate groups of thousands of people, both in equipment and combat effectiveness. Moreover, these monks hold the "Guardian of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas" and always seem very fanatical in the battle, so they are regarded as a major concern by the warlords in Fusang.

However, the existence of these monk soldiers also has some benefits for those warlords who are not strong in power or have a good relationship with the always-changing sect. As long as they express their loyalty to the Buddha and hand over some of the robbed property as "Buddha's property", they will be able to obtain the military support of the monk soldiers.

In addition, spiritual comfort is also very important. The more bloody your hands are, the more you expect to "put down the butcher knife" before you die, and then "become a Buddha on your own."

This is the case with the monk soldiers among this pirate. The so-called commander is a devout believer of the sect. Every time he robs, he will dedicate 20% of the spoils to the temple. Therefore, he can always follow 2 or 30 monk soldiers. These people can serve as guards or as supervisors.

As the opponent's main player appears, the battle quickly enters the decisive stage.

Xie Zhen looked back at the distance of the array behind him, feeling that the two sides were close enough, so he shouted. With Jie Bao's response, the two brothers each led four stragglers to detour on both sides, revealing the strict front of the Xu family army.

At 50 steps, the front row rogues began to accelerate. They were not tall, like a group of monkeys waving weapons, half-running and half-jumping towards the new army.

Shh!!!

The bamboo whistle made a rapid sound, and then, with a clamor, the new army's array stopped instantly. In the tense atmosphere, Xu Shiyang could still feel an uncontrollable sense of pride - the speed and neatness of the new army's standing attentive today were much stronger than the last time he fought against bandits.

Xu Shiyang opened his mouth slightly, letting the bamboo whistle in his mouth fall to the ground, and then shouted:

"Wooden cannon shooting!"

Boom! Boom!

Two loud noises, the wooden cannons on the trolley on the left and right sides of the front line roared at the same time. The gravel with a total weight of about 6 kilograms hit the Japanese pirate array like a storm, instantly slaughtering two rows of people!

In order to prevent the blow-off, the loading volume of the wooden cannon is only about half of that of the metal smoothbore cannon of the same caliber, so the initial speed is not high, and the lethality of the stone-made shotgun is not strong, but the densely bombarded unprotected targets can still achieve very good results.

"Front row of musket shooting!"

Xu Shiyang continued to issue orders, his voice making him feel a little hoarse.

Then there was a dense burst of smoothbore guns, and 7 of the ten front flank guns were successfully fired. As a weapon to participate in actual combat for the first time, the results were pretty good.

Three people on the opposite side were hit and fell to the ground screaming.

“Recharge!”

The new army currently has only 10 combs, and the firing regulations for fire door guns stipulate that in field attacks, each person is only allowed to fire one shot outside 10 steps, and he cannot play any fun tricks such as three-stage shooting. After one round of shooting, the musketeers stood honestly and began to reload ammunition.

The scattered soldiers on both sides began to shoot the Japanese pirates with heavy arrows. At this distance, the archers performed better than musketeers because they were also fatal to the enemy, but the rate of fire was much faster.

After two rounds of long-range fire strikes, the elite ronin in the front row suffered heavy losses, but the large army was still advancing under the pressure of monk soldiers.

They don't know what kind of weapon is the opposite side with excellent sound and light effects and amazing actual lethality.

But as a man who has been making a living at sea for many years, escaping is not within everyone's consideration - on the boat, it is impossible to escape alone in critical moments. When you can't beat it, either the whole boat people will run away together, or no one can escape.

Now there are still many Japanese pirates on one side, and many people think that their side still has a chance to win, so they shouted loudly and continued to pull in the distance and prepare for hand-to-hand combat.

"Don't be afraid! Go ahead! Kill them all!"

The small leaders of various Japanese pirates gradually came to the front of the team, and instead of the nearly half of the lost ronin, inspiring the soldiers to continue charging.

Ten steps away, they could clearly see the eyebrows and eyes of the new soldiers opposite.

‘A bunch of kids?’ Someone couldn’t help thinking: ‘So young? Can you fight a war?’

Then there were two other cannon sounds.

This time, the wooden cannon on the left wing of the new army was still loaded with shotguns, and gravel as dense as rain hit the head and face, and more than a dozen Japanese pirates fell to the ground.

The wooden cannon on the right wing, I don’t know if it was because the operator was too nervous, actually chose a Mark 2 type that was double reinforced to fire solid bullets.

This three-pound round granite shell slashed into the formation of Japanese pirates, knocking away two heads, breaking three leg bones, and then bounced up again and smashing the chest of one Japanese pirate to bloodyness.

Looking at the body and weapon fragments of Japanese pirates flying everywhere, Xu Shiyang discovered that these solid bullets used to deal with solid targets (such as siege equipment, city gates and small ships) seemed to have good results in shooting the crowd at close range.

After the second round of artillery attacks, the elite Japanese pirates in the front row suffered heavy losses, and the fish in the rear inevitably became shaken. The guys who were slightly ahead unconsciously began to retreat, while the guys in the back row could only rush forward under the pressure of monk soldiers. The entire Japanese pirate front was crowded into a group and became a dilemma.

"Open fire!"

According to the pre-war vision, Xu Shiyang carried out the last round of long-range strike step by step. The reloaded ten-rail guns and the twenty-shot-gate guns that were ready were fired at the same time. At such a close distance, the Japanese pirates' front was like a dead target that could not move, not much worse than shooting haystacks on the training ground. Therefore, the New Army Musketeers achieved an amazing hit rate - about 15 people were hit, including the second kill after a breakdown.

This round of volleys destroyed the morale of the Japanese pirates. Scattered soldiers on both sides shot several heavy arrows and knocked down three opponents. The momentum of the Japanese pirates' advance was completely stopped, and all the enemies began to retreat.

"The musketeer retreats and gets a bayonet! The spearteer moves forward!"

Xu Shiyang's hoarse voice sounded again, and the musketeer immediately turned around and retreated from the gap left by the spearmen in the back row to the back row.

In front, under the guidance of the flag gun in Xu Shiyang's hand, fifty long spears were laid flat at the same time, and the tip of the gun flashing with cold light pointed directly at the chest of the Japanese pirates.
