Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 98 Shooting two guns against the sky is worthy of the emperor's salary
Alibai's dadan has less than twenty bannermen.

I made a mistake before, and five of them died at once, all of them were elite sentinels.

Don't mention how distressed Ali Bai was.

Now, he, Dadan, is in charge of charging forward again.

Being able to capture the camp of the Ming army... that's for sure.

Ali Bai had no doubts about this.

As long as they work hard, they can rush in, tear a hole in the camp, and create a fighting opportunity for the follow-up Master Niu Lu.

But if there are too many dead people, it will be difficult for Alibai to be a Shiku in the future!

He has no other choice now but to obey orders.

"Get ready to charge! Follow me and smash Minggou's camp!"

Ali Bai roared loudly.

With dozens of people under his command, he first rode his horse to thousands of steps away, then got off his horse and began to straighten out his equipment.

Most of his men are infantry, armored infantry.

They all wear double armor, the outer layer is chain mail, and the inner layer is cotton armor.

Generally, if an arrowhead is shot at the body, or a Ming army's firecracker hits the body, it will be blocked by the double armor, and it will not even hurt anyone.

The Jianzhou army is brave, and this double armor is also a very important reason.

A considerable part of the Jianzhou army even approved the three-layer armor, and charged bravely, which was simply unstoppable.

On the other hand, the Ming army often couldn't even wear a cotton armor.

The advanced equipment is also the source of Ali Bai's self-confidence.

There are about ten dead soldiers under him, riding two horses and wearing heavy armor.

They are strong in stature, holding sabers, and some holding heavy weapons such as maces, which are "sharp knives" for charging.

Behind them, there are brave soldiers, holding longbows, dismounting and walking on foot, for the sake of accurate shooting.

The brave soldiers use bows and arrows to cover the dead soldiers.

At the end, there is also the guard of the detachment, called Ba Yala.

Bayala was also an elite fighter in the Jurchen army.

They are dressed in bright white armor, with very distinctive features.

There are only a few Ba Yala under Ali Bai.

Like a baby.

Every time a decisive battle is won, at a critical moment, these people can play a key role.

……

In the direction of Qiangdi Army, Zhao Cheng took a telescope in his hand and looked at Ali Baibu leisurely.

He is also very interested in Jurchen's combat methods.

Before crossing, I did a lot of research.

Jurchen can rise between the white mountains and the black waters. In terms of combat, there are really merits.

Nurhachi used to be a general of the Ming army and was very familiar with the Ming army.

The combat method developed by the Jurchen army under his command was simply the nemesis of the Ming army.

"The dead soldiers charge into the formation, the guards shoot arrows to cover, the armored infantry kills the enemy in the main battle, and Ba Yala is the last to press the formation, the decisive blow..."

Zhao Cheng clicked his tongue.

At the same time, the Jurchen army configured in this way was really invincible.

It's definitely not just a fluke that they can have the last laugh.

Under the same conditions, it is very difficult to defeat them.

It's a pity that Zhao Cheng now has equipment far beyond this era, which can reduce dimensionality against them.

Ali Baibu was well organized, and dozens of people began to advance slowly in several groups.

1000 steps...

They were in no hurry, and walked steadily.

900 steps...

800 steps...

……

500 steps...

"My lord, they have entered the range of the artillery, do you want to give them a few blows?"

Niu Dali stood beside Zhao Cheng and asked.

On their side, there are ten Fran cannons.

The Fran cannon adopts the mode of sub-cannon, which has advantages and disadvantages.

Reloads quickly, but range is greatly reduced due to ammunition leakage.

The effective range is about 500 meters, which is more than 300 steps.

Seeing the arrogant appearance of the Tartars, Zhao Cheng really wanted to say something about my Italian cannon...

spit!
It is to pull Lao Tzu's Fran cannon over.

But he quickly suppressed the urge.

The hole card should be used at the moment of shutdown.

"The enemy's main force is still behind. Save the Fran cannon and hide it. I will give them a surprise then."

The big guys should keep the bottom of the box.

If you use your hole cards too early to make the opponent take precautions, it will not have the desired effect.

Zhao Cheng drew out his saber and walked in front of the musket formation.

Although he personally went out to make a sample.

However, it can be seen that these sergeants are still very nervous.

Especially among the five hundred recruits, some were so nervous that their bodies trembled slightly.

Being on the battlefield in person is incomparable with the training environment, and it puts a lot of psychological pressure on people.

"Tartars are no more than bandits, no more than thieves.

They have a strong will to fight, and everyone must be mentally prepared.

But don't be afraid.

We have 600 people, three-stage shooting, intensive firepower, they were crippled when they rushed over. "

There is no formula on the battlefield, and it has always been adaptable.

Before Zhao Cheng beat bandits and thieves, he was shot in line, without using the three-stage method.

Because the bandits have no will to fight.

One volley will knock them down.

Worst of all, AK has the ability to turn the tide.

And there were too few soldiers at that time, especially when there were more than a dozen soldiers.

If it is divided into three stages, the firepower is too thin to cause any psychological pressure on the opponent.

It's different now.

Now he has 500 sergeants and more than [-] musketeers under his command.

The three-stage type can also form a very dense firepower network.

Moreover, the opponent is the Jurchens.

It is the most arrogant army in East Asia in this era.

Over the years, repeated battles and victories have created a strong fighting will and a proud fighting mentality in this army.

The battle damage rate they can bear must be extremely high.

A wrong combat plan is likely to have disastrous consequences.

Zhao Cheng took out AK again.

I hope I don't need this guy!
200 steps...

The Jurchen formation is still extremely stable.

The first row of musketeers of the Qiangdi Army had already raised their guns, and the black muzzles were aimed at the enemy.

The theoretical effective shooting distance of the smoothbore gun is about 220 meters.

Of course, at this distance, the hit rate will be very impressive.

But Zhao Cheng is not prepared to wait.

Because the Jurchens' bows and arrows are very powerful.

Their guards have a combination of light and heavy arrows, the range of which is no closer than that of muskets, and the hit rate is extremely high.

150 steps...

The moment he entered the effective firing range of the firecracker, Zhao Cheng immediately roared:

"Fire!"

Boom boom boom!
The crisp gunshots sounded like popping beans in the wilderness.

Bursts of gunpowder smoke filled the air.

"laugh!"

Ali Bai sneered.

To open fire from such a distance, it really was the Ming dog he knew!
Just now, he was taken aback when he saw the strict formation of the Ming army on the opposite side!

I really thought too much.

Ming dogs are no different.

Ali Bai was very familiar with the firecrackers of the Ming army, and it was impossible to hit anyone at such a long distance.

The firearms equipment rate of the Ming army is very high, almost one-third of them are all firearms.

But the will to fight is extremely poor.

Alibai had a few Ahas under him, who used to be gunners in the Ming army.

In their words:

"Firing two guns at the sky is worthy of the emperor's salary."

Then, as long as they rushed over, the opponent would definitely run.
