Chapter seven hundred and ninetieth change
Bald head and others felt the pressure, which was much more than the baggage soldiers. ΔΔ *
The Jurchen archers usually have a strength of about 120 to 150 pounds. Qing bows are traditional bows. Shooters use Mongolian shooting methods, but the power is converted to the 45 pounds of compound bows in later generations. Generally, middle-aged men with sufficient nutrition in later generations learn the strength of bows and arrows between 28 and 30 pounds, and the traditional bow is about 60 pounds. After long-term training and archery training, the strength of arm and waist strength is combined. The compound bow can shoot more than 40 pounds, and the strength of 60 and 70 pounds is very strong. If a traditional bow wants to pull a hundred pounds, it is almost difficult to do it. However, the Jurchen archers in front of them have almost no bows below the strength of 100 pounds.
Jurchen archers almost shoot archery frequency like the Han army, but their arrows are heavier. The Han army rarely use six twelve arrows, while the Jurchens generally use six twelve arrows. Later generations of bows and arrow enthusiasts have completely restored various Qing bows. It is rumored that six twelve arrows have also been restored, and they have tested them with Qing bows or compound bows at about a hundred steps. The result is that Qing bow counterweight arrows can be shot through the plate armor.
Heavy arrows kept flying towards the camp, and the wind was very nervous and urgent. The Jurchen archers also suffered considerable casualties in the artillery fire, but under the leadership of their officers, they still pressed forward step by step. The arrows gradually divided into two types of shooting methods: flat shooting and ejection, which almost covered the front and back of the chariot array. The rain of arrows gradually shot and couldn't lift their heads.
The bald man was suddenly startled, and his cheeks felt a warm feeling, and the top of his head felt a little hot. He touched it, cursed, and shouted quickly: "Military doctor, medical nurse."
A warrior wearing triple iron armor was shot into the vital point of his throat, and blood squirted. The warrior only rolled his eyes and died in a short while.
More people were shot in the arrow, and a warrior was shot in the leg. Everyone heard a loud noise. After the crack, his legs were obviously folded inward. The power of an arrow actually shot the person to the point of breaking his bones.
The soldier was dragged down to rescue him. He endured the pain and no one heard his voice.
A baggage soldier was shot on the back, and the flat and heavy arrows cut off his spine. His entire upper body seemed to be broken, his back was wet, and it seemed that he didn't bleeding much, but his mouth and nose were bleeding wildly. Before he was seen, he squatted on the ground and died with his musket.
The soldiers all put on iron masks and lowered their heads to observe the enemy situation.
The Jurchens and the warriors were not in the same pace. Since the position was silent, the Later Jin soldiers might also feel pressure and inappropriate. They did not intend to continue to move forward and use infantry to rush forward, but just moved slowly and continued to suppress the area of the chariot camp with bows and arrows.
"Mom, it's coming soon, it's coming soon." The bald man lay behind the card. He wore a six-flavored iron helmet on his head and no iron mask on his face. After all, as he was, he was no longer allowed to visit the front line. But when he saw the front line soldiers being shot overturned one after another, his heart was rolling like boiling water.
"Sure enough, the Eastern Lu bows and arrows are a hundred times stronger than the Northern Lu." The captain of the gunman squadron was sweating heavily, staring at the Jurchen archers and Han soldiers opposite, analyzing and recording the differences in strengths of the two. However, it seems that the Han army is much weaker, but it is still much stronger than the Mongolian archers.
The gunman warriors directly guarded Li Pingzhi from the grassland to Liaodong. The entire squadron soldiers experienced many wars. Although the squadron did not catch up with the most intense battles at Xiaohekou, the squadrons had participated in a series of wars such as the Jining Fort Battle. This time the squadron was dispersed, and some were strengthened in the garrison in the Cheba camp, and some were placed behind Changzha. The main task of this squadron soldiers was to assist the officers in managing the baggage. When the panic began, the gunman warriors also played a critical role in stabilizing the front.
Their combat experience is richer than that of the Thirteen Mountains. Many officers were escort troops in the tent a few years ago. They participated in many small-scale wars, bandit suppression wars, Lizhuang defense wars, Jiningbao defense wars and other series of northern wars. With these gunman warriors in the long team, people felt much more at ease.
"In comparison," a gunman team official couldn't help but answer: "Bei Lu bows and arrows are really children's toys."
Everyone has the same view. Beilu's bows and arrows are accurate and fast, but their strength is too weak. Not to mention that they cannot break the heavy armor, even the cotton armor and the mail cannot break. Unless they shoot the armorless target at close range, they will be almost useless.
This is also the reason why He Yusheng had no pressure to fight the Beilu on the grassland. The Beilu's powerful weapons are bows and arrows and riding skills. He Yusheng used the fortress to destroy the opponent's cavalry function, and he also used the firearm to hit the opponent and couldn't raise his head, so he naturally had everything going well.
"Give orders to be released quickly." The squadron leader of the war soldiers could no longer hold back. Seeing that the opponent had entered sixty steps, the archer did not continue to move forward, but kept shooting arrows evenly, suppressing the side's heads to lift. The infantry holding weapons passed the archer team and began to show signs of further forward.
Once you are forced to close to the long fence, it will be too dangerous.
It was the first time Zhang Chunniu faced such a scene. His fingers were white, his forehead was covered in sweat, and his sideburns were soaked with sweat.
In this way, the hot weather after the rain makes me sweat easily. When I was very nervous, Zhang Chunniu became fished out of the water.
He suddenly said to Wen Zhong seriously: "Commander Wen, before joining the army, I ideally am a chef and able to eat a big belly. After joining the army, I barely endured the training hard, but many soldiers were difficult to read, which was not difficult for me. I like to read and use my heart. In fact, I applied to be transferred to the Military and Political Department a while ago."
"Breaking and Release" Speaking of this, Zhang Chunniu suddenly turned around and issued a military order loudly.
The opponent's line is slightly tilted, but it is still relatively neat and large circular formation. The front is more prominent, and the column line is mixed behind it. Each archer is equipped with a knife, tiger teeth, iron, long sword, big sword, sword and shield hands, and cold weapons gather together, layer by layer. Once an offensive is formed, it will surge like a tide, wave after wave, and it will be necessary to slap the enemy in front of you until it smashes it to pieces.
The opponent had already begun to prepare for the attack. When he entered within sixty steps and was close to fifty to forty steps, more than one thousand,100 musketeers finally received the order to ease the army.
The flag was first played, and the bronze horn sounded and then the team officers and the squadron leader waved the flags.
All gunners were successfully shot at almost the same time
Less than thirty muskets were not released, and the gunmen were red and red in their faces and ears were red and put on the medicine again, pulled the cathode, and then rushed out the medicine.
At this time, the entire front had begun to reload.
Many people were trembling with their hands, and the strong white fog filled the position, and the pungent sulfur smelled so choked that they wanted to sneeze. Due to the habit of long-term training, no one went to observe the results of the opposite side. Only screams and wailings from the other side kept coming from their ears, indicating that they just shot a sudden volley, and the effect should be very good.
"Okay, good fight." Wen Zhong was observing the position. When the volley was just fired, more than a thousand muskets seemed to emit fire together, which means that the baggage soldiers were also good in daily training. He was more concerned about the Later Jin soldiers dozens of steps away. Just after the guns fired, the opposite position seemed to have encountered the north wind wheat, and a large area fell down in an instant.
"At least one hundred people were killed, and at least two or three hundred were injured." Wen Zhong was very satisfied. There were more than two thousand enemy troops in total. This time, the volley shot killed and injured nearly 20% of the opponent's troops.
As long as there are two more times in this volley, even if you are as strong as Jianlu, you will collapse. In this regard, even Zhang Chunniu, an ineligible officer, understands it in his heart.
There was a rustling sound from the entire position, and the soldiers were cleaning the chamber with their sticks. At this moment, there were clear sounds of Manchu and horns coming from the opposite side. Wen Zhong saw the infantry formation retreating, and the soldiers holding sword-picking were constantly retreating. The sword-pickers stayed at the end, holding their shields high, and covering the evacuation of the infantry.
"That's all." Zhang Chunniu was startled, then became excited.
"No, it's Jianlu's move." Wen Zhong had been on the Thirteen Mountain for half a year and had a clearer understanding of Jianlu's playing style. He said: "These guys are sure that the soldiers will be shot in a volley when they rushed to the front of the gate. I'm afraid they can't hold on, so they retreat a hundred steps away."
As Wen Zhong said, a large number of Jianlu soldiers retreated a hundred steps away and re-arranged. The archer had also retreated. After the step formation was adjusted, the archer had shot towards Changzha again.
At this time, the gunmen had loaded up and, under the command, the second round of volleys were re-launched.
Someone fell down on the opposite side in an instant. Because the archer's position was sparse, only twenty or thirty people were hit and fell down. Some fell down and stopped moving, while others kept rolling on the ground.
Zhang Chunniu frowned, very dissatisfied with the results of this battle.
But the distance is eighty to hundreds of steps away, even if hundreds of muskets are fired together, the effect will definitely not be satisfactory.
On the European battlefield a hundred years later, there were many records of similar narratives. Thousands of people were holding smoothbores and fired several rounds, but only a few people were killed or injured.
The real heavy casualties are that both sides have the determination and will to take down each other, constantly approaching forward and output firepower, shooting at close range, and shooting at the same time at the same time. That is to queuing death, not to get training and military discipline to a certain level, and to be top-notch and elite army, the 6th Army of the country can only achieve queuing death, causing very heavy casualties and injuries.
During the Napoleonic War, the French army was mostly able to fight against the Prussian and British troops, but the death and injury rate for the poor troops like the Austrian army would not be too high.
