The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 516
At such a long distance, if the opponent rushes intensively, the Lumi gun can deal a lot of damage. Now the opponent is grazing left and right, keeping the distance, and the hit rate will drop a lot in an instant.

Moreover, Oboi only arranged one thousand cavalry on each wing, if the thousand cavalry rushed forward face to face, it would be relatively dense, if they swam back and forth and skimmed, the space would be larger.

When the Lumi gun hits this distance, the bullet will drift, which is a bit inaccurate, and half depends on luck.

His convoy is still more than 1000 meters away from the high ground in front of him. It will take a long time to walk over slowly. If he shoots like this, his gunmen will definitely suffer.

Although his soldiers are easy to train, but with a small population, he is unwilling to compare them with Qing soldiers.

"He Xiaoche."

"Yes, my lord."

"Assemble all the flintlocks."

"promise."

There were [-] fusiliers that Ding Yi brought over this time, and they were concentrated in the He Xiaoche and He Liangwu camps.

The two soldiers and horses of the two are in the middle of the big formation, and they haven't fought yet.

Ding Yi ordered all to concentrate and go to the north to fight, because after a while the Qing cavalry changed positions on both sides, and all [-] cavalry would go to the north.

He Xiaoche understood immediately.

Shen Shikui said at this time, I see that the soldiers sent out two thousand horses to chase after Yuan Youcai, do you want to help?
Ding Yi shook his head, we are infantry, we can't help him, he can't fight, we will come over.

Oboi was very good at fighting. The second wave of Mongols fully utilized the strategy of the Yuan and Mongolian era, shooting from both sides, and in order to prevent being hit by blunderbuss, they all output at the furthest distance with bows and arrows.

This is how many powerful European armies were shot down in history.

Especially those powerful infantry, who walked slowly, couldn't shake off Mengqi, couldn't escape, couldn't get close to rushing, and were shot alive.

Ding Yi's musketeers went all the way to shoot at them, but they still suffered.

Lumi blunderbusses are suitable for fighting in a dense formation. The opponent only has a thousand cavalry on each side to swipe. The formation is not dense, and they are moving left and right with all their strength. It is also difficult for the blunderbuss to hit.

If you charge against the Gunners, no matter how you move, the Gunners will be easy to fight.

They move back and forth from side to side, which makes it harder to hit.

Many officers are shouting: "Advance, anticipation, hit moving targets, anticipation in advance——"

Hitting moving targets can only rely on advance and prediction, and how much in advance and how much to predict depends entirely on luck.

Bang, bang, bang, the gunshots on the scene kept ringing, and the bows and arrows on the other side also kept shooting.

From time to time, people on both sides fell down, and the casualties on both sides were almost the same, but Ding Yi obviously felt that he was at a disadvantage.

Such consumption is not willing to bear for him.

Fortunately, he has a more powerful flintlock gun that can shoot farther and shoot faster.

Four hundred fusiliers were soon concentrated to the north.

These people were originally gun soldiers scattered in various rounds, and they were all better and more accurate players in each round.

This time, Yizhou was temporarily concentrated in two bureaus.

He Xiaoche and He Liangwu followed the team from left to right.

They are all on the north side at this time, in front of the convoy, the Mongolian soldiers have just passed by, and they will stagger and change positions on the north side of the front.

When changing positions, the Mongolian cavalry of the two thousand-man teams will overlap and stagger.

This is also the time when their formation is densest.

But this intensive time is less than 2 minutes at most. This is the time for the Mongols to rest, and it is also the time for staggered positions. After they change positions, the formation will become sparse again.

"Get ready." He Xiaoche turned his head and saw that the Mongolian cavalry on both sides had reached the west and east sides.

Shoot all the way to the north.

At this time, the two teams of thousands of people have each shot about ten arrows, some of them are resting, and some are shooting very slowly.

Hush, the Ming army convoy stopped at the same time.

The flintlock was holding the gun, and the ammunition and gunpowder were quickly loaded.

Behind each fusilier stood a musher, holding a shield.

Only for a while.

Whoosh, whoosh, a wave of arrows shot from the east and west sides.

The spear and shield soldiers raised their shields one after another, and squatted down at the same time as the fusiliers.

The arrows fell on the shield one after another like rain.

This wave of arrows is still relatively small, and it can be seen that the Mongolian soldiers are a little tired from shooting.

Then the two thousand-man teams on the east and west sides headed north at the same time and began to change positions.

In the process of changing positions, they do not shoot arrows.

"Stand up." He Xiaoche shouted.

Hush, the fusiliers stood up one after another.

"Fastest speed, free fire."

"Fastest speed, free fire."

Officers were calling from both sides.

Hearing the cry, the fusiliers raised their guns and took aim.

The Mongolian soldiers were seventy or eighty steps away from them, and their flintlock guns could hit a hundred and twenty to 150 steps most effectively.

Within this distance, the lead bullets they fired would not be as erratic as the Lumi guns.

Moreover, the flintlock buckshot has a slightly larger caliber, is heavier, and will not drift, which ensures that the hit rate will be greatly improved.

When the two armies of the Mongolian army crossed, they would slow down accordingly to prevent the two sides from hitting each other.

Rumbling, horseshoes roaring in the distance, and the two Mongolian cavalry exchanged positions.

Farther away, Oboi grinned and said, "See, the Ming army has nothing to do with shooting them like this. Although everyone has consumption, the Ming army must not be able to afford it."

Immediately someone said: "It's best to change two soldiers and horses, the archers can't shoot too much."

Aobai nodded, intending to let this wave of shots finish before changing people.

"Alihe, you are going to replace two thousand riders."

"Hey." Immediately, the Qing soldiers began to form a team, and another 2000 people were ready to change.

at this time.

Suddenly, there was a burst of gunfire that was different from before.

Bang, bang, bang, Ding Yi is free to fire, the fastest speed.

Four hundred flintlock guns fired in succession, pouring out ammunition like a torrential rain.

Plop plop, the Mongolian cavalry on the north side were staggering, like straw blown by a strong wind, falling down in pieces.

"what?"

"How could this happen?" Obai and the others were stunned.

Just now there were much more artillery soldiers on the east and west sides than on the north side, and none of them had such an effect.

Mengqijian seemed to have encountered a catastrophe, Ding Yi's metal storm tore them apart, a large number of cavalry fell off their horses, and countless people screamed.

The Ming army on the north side did not move, and the fusiliers lowered their heads and quickly reloaded their ammunition and gunpowder.

They are the best shooters in the army and the fastest reloads.

He Xiaoche has been watching everyone. He is also one of the fastest shooters in training. It only takes about 40 seconds to complete the entire loading process.

But seeing a blunderbuss younger than him, the first one finished the first one and the first one was installed. It is estimated that the whole process will take less than 40 seconds at most.

He quickly raised his blunderbuss, at this time the two Mongolian cavalry crossed and hadn't made a mistake.

Because many Mongolian soldiers were shot at the scene and fell down, a large number of horses and people who fell off the horses fell on the road.

The Mongolian cavalry was in chaos, with the most casualties in the middle, and the cavalry behind them had been blocked.

Many cavalry had to go around to the sides to pass.

"Bang, bang, bang" as the gunman fired, a large number of Lumi guns also seized this opportunity to fire at the same time.

Then the fusiliers started the second round one after another.

Nearly a thousand musketeers gathered on the north side and beat hard at the front.
