Chapter 270 Shield Soldiers Defeat

"Persevere is to win."

The Ming officials were also motivating their soldiers. In the last moment, the three battalions of the other side were already quickly gathering. As long as they could join together, our artillery would pass by like rain.

Although Zuo Menggeng's soldiers did not understand the reason, why did the other party's artillery stop?

But they also know that the fighter's opportunity is rare. As long as they take advantage of this opportunity to rush in, the outcome of this war will be decided.

"Change the pistol."

After entering the forty meters, the soldiers immediately carried the spear on their shoulders and took out the box cannon at their waists.

This thing was loaded with twenty bullets and hit the front.

If it is a single bullet, it may not have much effect on these shields, but if the continuous launch of bullets is limited, the pressure the shield can withstand is not very good. The iron smelting technology in this era is not very good, so more and more shields are penetrated.

Thirty meters...

It is not uncommon for cavalry to rush to this distance, but after they arrive here, they probably don’t have much combat power.

In front of the Ming Musketeers, the infantry had never reached this distance. Now that Zuo Menggeng's soldiers have arrived here, he has set a new record.

The Ming soldiers in the front row were also suffering from the rain of arrows from the sky, but these people did not retreat, and both sides were already red-eyed.

Everyone knows very well that you must never retreat at this time. As long as you dare to turn around and run back and forth, it is equivalent to handing over your back to others, and your life is waiting to be harvested!

Even if you know that you are about to die, you have to face the enemies ahead, and at least you can win a glimmer of hope for your comrades.

"Bomb drop team."

After entering thirty meters, the function of the grenades appeared. At the command of their command, hundreds of grenades were thrown out instantly. The shield soldiers who were still aggressive just now have been killed half of them.

When facing muskets and pistols, shield soldiers do have their advantages, especially when mud is attached to the outside of the shield, their protection abilities are also very strong.

However, when facing grenades, the shield soldiers had no advantage. Wherever the grenade landed, the soldiers in which they were in chaos.

Of course, because of the giant shield, the lethality of the grenade is much smaller. If there were only infantry, a grenade could affect at least six or seven soldiers. Now, because of the shield, it can only affect three or four soldiers.

"The artillery fired, and the artillery on the navy's warships attacked their rear."

The order was finally issued, and the losses on our side were as high as thousands of people, but Zhu Cilang knew very clearly that if he had ordered an attack earlier, then many of these shield soldiers could run back.

Now they have all been attracted, and the thousands of people we have lost here will be repaid by tens of thousands of people.

The firing of thousands of cannons was so spectacular that all the dust on the surface was shaken up, and the artillery position instantly fell into smoke.

But these artillery soldiers were just surrounded by some smoke, but the shells they fired were different. The power of the shells was much greater than that of the grenades.

They exploded the shield soldiers in the center of the shield soldiers. In order to maintain their own protection, they all depended very rigorously. When the shells exploded in their camp, dozens of soldiers were bombed around.

Zuo Menggeng and Haoge looked at the scene in amazement. Now they finally understood. No wonder the Ming soldiers did not fire the artillery just now, because they were afraid that they could not wipe out our shield soldiers.

These people are really insulting. Haoge and Zuo Menggeng have no other way. Now they can only curse fiercely?

"Get back quickly..."

Zuo Menggeng was about to order a retreat, but who knew that Haoge next to him would hold this guy up with one move.

"Are you crazy? Let them retreat now, they have no value at all, let them move on."

Haoge roared loudly, and Zuo Menggeng seemed to have recovered a little bit of rationality. If he retreated now, it would be useless at all, but if he continued to move forward, there would be the last twenty meters left.

"All army assault."

Before Zuo Menggeng could react, Haoge instantly pulled out his waist knife and rushed up on a war horse.

The war drums on the Wuchang city walls also sounded, which was the war drums that the entire army attacked.

At this moment, Zhu Cilang also frowned. He thought that under such fierce artillery fire, Zuo Menggeng would definitely order his people to retreat. Who knew that these people were so fierce and fearless.

Zuo Menggeng also wanted to issue other orders, but he knew that what Haoge said was correct. Since one person could not escape from the left and right, it would be more valuable to make these people die. If they turned around and retreated, they would become someone else's prey. Now there is still a chance to win.

"There are all, throw grenades and blow them back."

The officers on the position also shouted hoarsely. You should know that within a range of 30 meters, the artillery did not dare to hit the shells here. The distance between the two sides was too close. If the shells fell here, it would probably cause casualties to their own people.

The artillery could only take care of those people fifty meters away, including the crossbows on the navy's warships, and almost all had their horsepower.

The soldiers behind wanted to rush up, and they were facing a blockade formed by artillery shells. Haoge just now had to be fierce, from the moment he announced the attack of the entire army to the present, at least more than 2,000 people had to be killed by artillery shells.

"Brothers, rush."

At the last twenty meters, many shield soldiers threw down their heavy shields and then pulled out the big sword at their waists.

The Ming soldiers also went crazy. After they fired all their bullets, they had no time to change the bullets. When they saw the pistol of their late comrade next to them, they took it over and shot wildly in front of them.

Now I don’t care about aiming. Anyway, the opponent’s formation is so dense that as long as the bullet is fired, someone will definitely be shot.

Now the soldiers on both sides are in a state of madness. As long as they have a little strength, they must be put into the battlefield. The Qing army must rush into this position, and the Ming soldiers must fire bullets and throw grenades out.
