Chongzhen Daming: Starting from Coal Mountain

Chapter 368
The Li-shaped helmet of the new army is forged and spliced ​​with iron sheets, and the inside is lined with cowhide.

Except for Jiannu's big bow and heavy arrows, even the Mongols' cavalry bows couldn't shoot through them.

It is even more impossible for the indigenous bows and arrows of these bandits in front of them to shoot through the hats of the new army.

But Xu Wuniu didn't know this, he just obeyed orders.

Because after nearly half a year of training, the military rules of the new performance book have been integrated into his bone marrow.

Before Xu Yingwei yelled to stop, he had to grit his teeth and walk forward even if there were mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead. If Xu Yingwei gave the order to charge, he would have to jump down with his eyes closed even if there was an abyss ahead.

After the bandit's arrow passed, Xu Wuniu raised his head again.

In just this moment, the bandits had already killed within thirty paces. Now not only could they hear the bandits' cursing and shouting, but they could even see clearly the ferocious and ugly faces of the bandits.

Most of these bandits had cruel smiles on their faces.

Xu Wuniu is still an honest mountain dweller until now.

There has never been such a thing as murder, not even a few fights.

So Xu Wuniu instinctively felt panic when he saw the bandits rushing towards him fiercely, but even so, Xu Wuniu still gritted his teeth and walked forward without pausing at all.

At this moment, the scholar who was walking in front finally suppressed the waist knife he was holding high.

"First row, fire!" The scholars roared, and then quickly squatted down to get out of the shooting circle.

Xu Wuniu in the first row immediately raised his flintlock gun, aimed at a bandit thirty steps ahead and pulled the trigger.

"Tat-tat-tat..." Immediately after the sound of the impact of the flint and the anvil, there was the bang-bang bang-bang sound of the gun being fired, and a cloud of white smoke immediately rose in front of the formation, and the bandits on the opposite side could no longer be seen clearly.

However, it could still be vaguely seen that a whole row of bandits had fallen to the ground screaming.

Because of the cover of gunpowder smoke, it was impossible to see the tragic scene of the bandits after being shot, so Xu Wuniu didn't feel the slightest discomfort after firing the gun.

According to the training, after firing the guns, Xu Wuniu quickly retreated to reload, and the second row fired the guns in turn.

After the second row of guns was exhausted, the third row stacked up, and when the third row also ran out of guns, Xu Wuniu and the others had almost finished loading the guns in this row and could fire them again.

Following Qin Wangshizi's order, the first row stepped forward to play again.

After finishing playing, when Xu Wuniu was about to step back and reload again,

Suddenly, the charge horn sounded "beep beep beep beep beep beep beep".

The charge horn rang, and there was a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire ahead, and he had to grit his teeth and charge forward. Without thinking about it, Xu Wuniu strode forward with a flintlock gun with a bayonet on it.

After rushing two steps, I heard Xu Yinglong's scolding in my ears.

Xu Yinglong used Grandma's dialect: Mom beats a dragon!
Xu Wuniu also subconsciously cursed angrily.

While cursing loudly, he strode forward with a flintlock gun in his hand.

Because the line of sight was blocked by the gunpowder smoke, I couldn't see what was going on in front of me, nor could I see a bandit, but I could hear the wailing sound one after another.

It seems that the bandits must have suffered a big loss?

Xu Wuniu's confidence instantly increased, and his sense of fear decreased.

Soon, Xu Wuniu passed through the gunpowder, and his vision suddenly became clear.

But the gentle slope in front of them was already full of bandits lying here and there, and all the bandits who fell to the ground were howling, some were covering their chests, some were holding their thighs, and some were covering their faces.

Seeing this, Xu Wuniu was a little dazed, and subconsciously slowed down.

As a mountain man, no matter how well-trained he is, he is only a well-trained mountain man.

It's hard to imagine such a thing as a face-to-face murder, Xu Wuniu suddenly faltered.

"Why are you still standing there?" A black figure suddenly rushed past Xu Wuniu, and then with a flash of cold light, he beheaded a bandit who was trying to resist.

It is Mr. Xu in mountain armor.

"If you don't kill them, they will kill you!"

Xu Yingwei rushed forward, brandishing a waist knife, only the voice came back.

As if to confirm Xu Yingwei's words, a bandit stabbed Xu Wuniu in the abdomen with a bamboo spear.

Xu Wuniu wanted to hide, but his legs were as if filled with lead, and he couldn't move at all, so he could only watch helplessly as the bamboo spear stabbed his lower abdomen, thinking that he was dead this time.

"Pfft!" Xu Wuniu staggered when he was stabbed.

A knee-length cloth visor provides adequate protection.

The bandit's bamboo spear couldn't even pierce the cloth surface, let alone the iron lining.

Xu Wuniu was unscathed, but was woken up by the stagger.

"I'm going to kill you!" Xu Wuniu roared, and stabbed him with a bayonet.

The bandit had a leg injury and was unable to move, but Xu Wuniu stabbed him right in the face.

"Puchi!" With a soft sound, the sharp bayonet pierced through the bandit's chest with ease, and penetrated to his back.

Xu Wuniu stabbed the scarecrow's heart with a wooden spear countless times during training, so this stab directly pierced the bandit's heart, and the bandit died on the spot.

This poke seemed to undo Xu Wuniu's seal.

At that moment Xu Wuniu drew out his bayonet and rushed forward again.

As long as you encounter bandits trying to resist on the way, you can't help but say that you are stabbing, just stabbing!
Dominated by this violent emotion, Xu Wuniu didn't know how far he rushed and how many bandits he stabbed to death. He didn't stop until his eyes suddenly disappeared and there was no more bandits in sight.

Xu Wuniu was panting heavily, but he still couldn't break free from his violent emotions.

"Wuniu, you can do it, kid." A big hand patted Xu Wuniu's shoulder from behind.

"Go to hell!" Xu Wuniu howled, turned around with his flintlock gun and stabbed him behind.

"Wu Niu is me!" Xu Dahu's heart-piercing wailing sounded from behind, "Dahu!"

Xu Wuniu's hands stopped suddenly, and he finally broke free from the violent emotion. When he looked closely again, he saw that the point of the bayonet was less than half an inch away from Xu Dahu's abdomen.

"Wu Niu, Ye Jie Wu Sentence scared me to death." Xu Dahu cursed with lingering fear.

"Who asked you to pat him on the shoulder from behind?" Xu Yingwei passed by, and said again, "Don't do such stupid things again in the future, or you will be too unjust to die under the bayonet of your own people."

Although Xu Wuniu broke free from the violent emotion just now, he was still in a daze.

Some muses looked back at the hillside behind them in a daze, and saw bandits lying dead all the way behind them. They were all stabbed to death by him in the rush all the way just now, and there were corpses all over the hills and plains below.

When did Xu Wuniu see so many dead people?
Especially the bandit who was closest to him, although he was dead, his eyes were wide open, and he was staring straight at him, making people can't help but think of turning into a ghost and taking his life.

"Wuniu, sit down and rest for a while." Xu Yingwei kicked the bandit's corpse.

The bandit's corpse turned over and finally stopped staring at Xu Wuniu.

However, Xu Wuniu suddenly felt a sharp annoyance, and immediately fell down and vomited.

This vomit not only spit out the wrinkled rice that I ate before, but even the bile.

Moreover, there were not a few new soldiers like Xu Wuniu who fell to the ground and retched. For a while, the hillside was full of vomiting sounds, not to mention how sour the smell was.

The new army's first battle was a victory.

……

To be honest, Chongzhen was also a little confused at the moment.

Chongzhen thought that this battle would be easy. Even though it was a new army, it was a well-trained new army, and it was definitely not something that mobs like bandits could compete with.

Even with a spear, the new army can defeat bandits.

What's more, the new army is also equipped with flintlock guns and socket bayonets.

Therefore, there is no doubt that the new army defeated the bandits.

But Chongzhen still didn't expect that this battle could be won so easily, it was simply devastating.

Xu Wuniu and the others were in the middle of the game, so they couldn't see it very clearly, but Chongzhen and the others stayed in the high place behind, but they used the telescope to see the whole battle process clearly.

The bandits mistook the new army for the guard army, and because they had the advantage of the terrain, they unscrupulously charged the new army in a dense formation, trying to crush the new army in one go, and then beat the dog in the water.

Then, tens of thousands of mountain bandits ran into the three-stage attack of the new army line.

Just four waves of focused fire killed at least four thousand bandits.

That's right, more than [-] bandits were killed with more than [-] bullets in four waves.

Because when the new army opened fire for the first time, the bandits had already approached within thirty steps!
At this distance, the hit rate of the flintlock gun is extremely high, and the penetration power is extremely strong, enough to penetrate two people!

However, only a small number of bandits wore armor, and the vast majority of bandits only wore leather jackets. Some bandits didn't even have leather jackets, only thin civilian clothes, so the result can be imagined.

More than [-] people were killed or seriously injured in a short period of time, and the bandits were defeated in one fell swoop.

Seeing this, the bandits in the back were completely discouraged, turned around and ran away, hating their parents for losing two legs.

At this time, Xu Yingwei and Yan Yingyuan accurately captured the fighter and decisively ordered to charge.

These bandits were already suffering from hunger and cold, and their physical fitness was seriously insufficient, so how could they outrun the new army who had three full meals?

What's more, most of the new army were mountain people, and their foot strength was even worse than these bandits. In the end, only a few vigilant old bandits fled to the forests on both sides, and the rest were stabbed to death by the new army.

It's just that the old bandits who fled into the mountains on both sides don't even think about running away.

Because the [-] cavalrymen of the cavalry battalion and the [-] barbarians had long been waiting for them.

Three thousand cavalry and eight hundred barbarians and even Jiannu's white-armored soldiers were able to challenge them head-on. Wouldn't it be a piece of cake to deal with these old bandits?These old gangsters don't want to run away.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, the three thousand cavalry and Yi Ding returned one after another.

The cavalry and Yi Ding brought back more than [-] old bandit heads.

The bandits in the Dabie Mountains have suffered a devastating blow this time. At least in the next ten years or so, it is impossible for there to be a large number of bandits again. The mountain people should be able to live a good life in peace.
