Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 31 The Flintlock vs. Vulcan

Zhu Youjian also specifically told him not to be impulsive when encountering firearms. Although Li Cunxiao is extremely brave, it is obviously a joke to say that he can deal with two thousand firearms.Although he retreated in time, the steel armor on his back was still rattled by the firecrackers.

Li Cunxiao felt his back go numb from the shock, and he couldn't help secretly rejoicing that he retreated in time just now.

Not long after Li Cunxiao retreated, other Xuanjia cavalry arrived one after another, Li Cunxiao waved his hand to stop them from attacking.

"The iron cavalry suspended their attack. They have firearms. Da Ming has more advanced firearms than his opponents. There is no need to cause unnecessary casualties."

"Here"

The Xuanjia iron cavalry died one less, if the damage was too much, the emperor would settle accounts with him.

Seeing that Ming's cavalry didn't dare to attack, Li Guo showed a smug smile on his face. His soldiers suffered heavy casualties in the face of Daming's firearms, and finally had a chance to fight back.

"Come on, rush over, rush over to eat guns, firearms are not only available to you, Daming, our Dashun Army also has a lot of them."

Li Guo deliberately provoked Li Cunxiao, wanting to provoke Li Cunxiao to rush up to kill him, the rogue soldiers under his command also arrogantly held up their firecrackers to demonstrate against Li Cunxiao.

Li Cunxiao, who was summoned by the system, has changed a lot from the one in history. He is very calm and calm, and will not violate the emperor's order.

Zhu Youjian had told him a long time ago that he should be calm when encountering firearms and not to charge recklessly, so he completely ignored Li Guo's provocation.

Li Cunxiao looked indifferent, and led the Xuanjia army to stand outside the range of the firecrackers, waiting for the arrival of the Qi family army. Qi Jiguang was not far away.

Soon, Zhu Youjian and Qi Jiguang and Sun Chuanting arrived. Zhu Youjian looked at the firearms soldier on the opposite side, and when he looked at Li Cunxiao's expression, he knew that he was deflated.

If Li Cunxiao ignored the casualties and ordered the cavalry to charge quickly, he would definitely be able to kill people like Li Guo, but Zhu Youjian couldn't bear the needless casualties of the cavalry.

Smiling and patting Li Cunxiao's shoulder, Zhu Youjian said with a smile:

"The general has done a good job. We have more advanced weapons than them. There is no need to fight recklessly. Don't worry. Let General Qi vent your anger."

"General Qi is ready to fight, let the rogue firearms soldiers take a look at our flintlock guns."

"obey"

"Qi's army is ready."

"Yes"

Qi Jiguang agreed, and waved to the Qi family army behind him, and then the firearms soldiers of the Qi family army stepped forward, quickly lined up, and raised their flintlock guns.

Seeing the rows of firecrackers in the hands of the rogues on the opposite side, Qi Jiguang couldn't help sighing secretly, those were all the firearms they used before the Ming Dynasty.

But now, in front of the master's flintlock gun, which is similar to a fire stick, he clasped his fists at Zhu Youjian and promised:
"Your Majesty, you can rest assured that the firecrackers of the rogues are not at the same level as our flintlock guns. I will try my best to wipe them out."

"fire"

As soon as Qi Jiguang gave an order, the flintlock guns of Qi's army aimed at the bandits, and there was a burst of gunshots.

The firecrackers in the hands of the bandits were all seized from Ming soldiers, with an effective range of about 50 paces, and now the Ming army is aiming at them at a distance of about [-] paces opposite them.

The rogue firearms soldiers shot when they saw the Ming army stationed so far away. They all laughed wildly. It was impossible for the firearms at such a distance to hit them.

"Brothers, look, a group of idiots on the other side want to shoot at such a long distance, what a joke."

"bang bang"

"Ah... I'll go, it's unreasonable..."

But how did they know that the flintlock guns of the Great Firearms Soldiers were all improved, filled with paper-wrapped bullets, and the effective range had reached about a hundred paces.

This kind of positional warfare is different from individual combat, as long as you aim and shoot, more than 3000 firearms soldiers came up just now, under the cover of bullets, there will definitely be a lot of casualties with so many rogues.

A burst of gunfire rang out, and the soldiers of the Rogue Firearms Battalion, who had been complacent just now, fell down in an instant. The Rogues were shocked and lost their calmness just now.

In their panic, they forgot the killing range of the firecrackers, and raised the firecrackers one after another to shoot, but the effective range of the firecrackers was limited, and they could not harm the Ming army at all.

Seeing their companions falling down continuously, causing hundreds of casualties in an instant, these usually arrogant and domineering firearms soldiers suddenly lost the courage to fight against the Ming army.

"This shit is like sending you to death."

"How is it possible? What kind of firearm is Minggou using? Their range is farther than ours, and their bullets are much more powerful. There is no way to fight this battle, so withdraw quickly."

While yelling, some of the rogue soldiers started to retreat, Li Guo swung his saber, beheading more than a dozen people in succession.

"Hold them all, and whoever dares to retreat will be killed by the supervising team."

"Yes"

The supervising team agreed, and raised their swords one after another, ready to kill the retreating soldiers of the Firearms Battalion at any time, while Li Guo turned his horse's head and ran towards the hillside where Li Zicheng was.

"Your Majesty, hurry up. The Firearms Battalion can't stop Minggou's attack. If you don't leave, it will be too late."

Li Zicheng was very confident in breaking through the capital this time. He hardly encountered decent resistance all the way, but since he climbed the hill, he found something was wrong.

The number of my own troops far exceeds that of the Ming army, but today's Ming army is too fierce to fight, and it is completely different from those of the previous Ming army.

The Dashun army was like ants in front of them, and they had almost no resistance, especially those cavalry. After a shock, the Dashun army suffered countless casualties.

Seeing that the hundreds of thousands of troops he brought were about to be defeated, Li Zicheng couldn't help being furious, and he drew his waist knife and was about to go into battle himself.

Li Zicheng is also a person who has experienced many battles and countless disasters. He is really not afraid of death. Seeing Li Guo retreating before the battle, he was very upset.

"Li Guo, don't disturb our army's morale, everyone will follow me to kill the enemy, and you will be rewarded for defeating Minggou."

"No, your majesty, hurry up, it will be too late."

Li Guofei dismounted from his horse, hugged Li Zicheng and begged, Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance and others had a bad experience, they all stepped forward to comfort him:

"Your Majesty, the current situation is indeed not good. Let's retreat first, go back and recruit troops, buy firearms and then come to a decisive battle with Minggou."

"Yes, our failure today is because our firearms are not as good as theirs. It's not that our tactics and soldiers are bad. We can make a comeback another day."

Under the consolation of everyone, Li Zicheng calmed down slowly. He knew that today's situation was over, and there were less than 50 troops left, so how could he fight.

"Okay, let's retreat for now."

Seeing that Li Zicheng agreed to retreat, Li Guo hurriedly got up on his horse, and he was going to cover Li Zicheng's escape with all his might.

"I will block the Ming army, you protect the emperor and leave quickly."

"We are willing to cooperate with General Li to fight together. Your Majesty, please retreat quickly."

The other soldiers around Li Zicheng stood beside Li Guo one after another, retreating for the sake of Li Zicheng's body, and they could fight each other with death.

Most of the [-] firearms soldiers of the rogues on the opposite side were shot to death by Qi's army, and the rest were in a mess. Zhu Youjian swung his sword and gave an order:
"General Cunxiao, you can charge with all your strength now."

"obey"

Li Cunxiao agreed, then turned around and gave an attack order to the black armored cavalry behind him:
"Children"

"Rush me."

"Here"
