Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 484 Rifled Gun Shooting Qing Army Firearms Soldiers (Part 3)
This is only the power of five rifled guns.

In the Guards, the main force of each corps had cluster firepower formed by a hundred rifled guns, which was a truly terrible nightmare for the Qing cavalry.

The officers and soldiers of the special column of the Guards continued to advance.

After marching to the place where the Qing cavalry was shelled, I saw the Qing cavalry still lying on the ground crying in front of us.

At this time, the officers and soldiers of the Guards had long been used to it, and they didn't say anything. Only the officers and soldiers responsible for collecting heads came up consciously and cut off the heads of these Qing soldiers and placed them on the carriage. These were their achievements.

A Qing soldier who had only one leg broken was desperately crawling out, he didn't want to be killed by these Han people.

He never imagined that the Han people who used to be as weak as sheep would become so terrifying!
He was terrified, the corners of his mouth were trembling, and his numb hands desperately grabbed the grass moss on the ground and moved forward.

Stab!
A soldier of the Guards chopped off his head with a knife, and put it back on the carriage.

The blood of this decapitated Qing soldier was still gurgling, and the blood that flowed out moistened the dry and cracked northern land, and melted into the soil made of the bones of thousands of Han people.

But in the eyes of the guards, such a scene is just the beginning.

The five years of tempering have completely turned them into a killing and revenge machine.

The Northern Expedition was still going on, and Chen Zhenhui rushed to the gate of Wuqiao County with [-] infantry.

The appearance of [-] infantry initially did not shock Lou Sheng much.

He even confidently believed that his [-] Qing soldiers would be able to block the [-] infantry under the strong city wall.

"Firearms ready!"

Although Shi Tingzhu, the new governor of Zhili, did not send reinforcements to Lou Sheng, but he still provided some weapons.

Stimulated by the advanced firearms industry of the Ming Dynasty, the current Manchu Qing Dynasty also began to mass-produce muskets similar to the Chongzhen [-]-style flintlock guns. Therefore, at this time, Lou Sheng also had a thousand firearms soldiers under his command.

After Lou Sheng gave an order, these Qing army firearms soldiers began to rely on the battlements, and began to fire flints to shoot at the infantry of Chen Zhenhui's Department of Guards outside the city.

"The enemy army is using flintlock guns, and the range should be between the Chongzhen [-]th Style and the Chongzhen [-]th Style. Order to go on, and each association will advance another [-] steps, and then march forward to shoot, waiting for our artillery!"

After the commander Chen Zhenhui put down the binoculars, he issued a combat order.

Then, Chen Zhenhui personally led her infantry to run for thirty steps, and then immediately squatted on the ground with one knee, raised the Chongzhen Type 22 flintlock gun, put the butt on her shoulder, pulled the trigger, and used the three points and one line The front sight aimed at a Qing army firearms soldier on the front.

The same is true for the officers and soldiers of the other infantry battalions of the Guards Army. They stared around with burning eyes, aiming at the corresponding Qing army firearms soldiers on the city wall with their crosshairs.

At this time, the Qing army's firearms soldiers had been waiting for the infantry of the Guards to enter their shooting range.

But after waiting for a long time, seeing that the infantrymen of the Guards stopped only ten steps away from the range, a commander of the Firearms Battalion couldn't help but asked Lou Cheng: "Master Xian, what are these Ming soldiers doing? Why are they squatting on the ground and not moving forward? Can't shoot them!"

As soon as the commander of the firearms battalion finished speaking, the infantrymen of the Guards fired first.

With a clang, piercing gunshots rang out.

Due to the strong recoil, Chen Zhenhui leaned back suddenly, and the bullet shot out with a wisp of smoke and dust, directly hitting the eye socket of a firearms soldier by the battlement, and the Qing army firearms soldier fell to the ground on the spot, clutching his hands. Eyes howled.

Ah!
At this time, other Qing army firearms soldiers were also shot one after another, because these Qing army firearms soldiers were all covered by battlements.

Therefore, the infantry of the Guards can only shoot to the area above their shoulders, which is a great test for the infantry of the Guards' individual shooting ability.

Fortunately, the infantry of the Guards has always taken shooting level as the first assessment index, and the correction error of the front sight of the Chongzhen Type 22 rifle is very small. Many veteran infantry of the Guards do not need extra time to aim at all. Shot in the head of the Qing army's firearms soldier.

At this time, the firearms soldiers of the Qing army had nothing to do with the guards. Their firearm range was still not as good as that of the infantry soldiers of the guards, or even far worse. was shot.

Ah!
A shrill scream came from Wuqiao County.

A Qing army firearms soldier fell from the battlements after being accidentally shot, and fell to the ground with a slap and did not move again.

The Guards infantry on the opposite side were completely unaffected, still bent half-bent, holding guns and moving around the city wall, as long as a Qing army firearms soldier appeared, a shuttle of bullets would pass by, and a Qing army would be killed on the spot. the life of the army.

The rest of the Qing army was too frightened to stand up again. In just one round, they lost nearly [-] Qing troops, while the infantry of the Guards was unscathed and kept suppressing the Qing army. Dare to stand on the wall.

Lou Sheng, the county magistrate of Wuqiao County, could only hide under the battlements at this time, wishing he could hide his head and ears in the black gauze hat:
"It's really impossible to fight. Why are the firearms of the Ming army so sharp? What can you do!"

The rest of the county government officials all looked at each other in blank dismay.

At this time, Chen Zhenhui had found the right angle, and suddenly shot directly at the battlements beside Lou Cheng. The splashed bullets accurately overturned Lou Cheng's top hat, leaving only his bare forehead shining in the sun. Shiny, and that money-rat tail that shudders with fright.

Snapped!
Chen Zhenhui, the commander of the infantry battalion of the Guards, directly interrupted Lou Cheng's raised money mouse tail with another shot, causing Lou Cheng to lie down on the ground in fright:

"Oh my god, did the Ming army charge up, stop it quickly, let me stop it!"

"Master, don't panic, the city gate has not been broken, and the Ming army has not yet entered the city gate."

At this time, after a classic historian said something, the county magistrate Lou Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and just about to stand up, suddenly the guards shot over again, and Lou Cheng was so frightened that he had to hide behind the battlements again squatting:

"I thought that fighting was nothing more than a feather fan, a scarf, and the mast and scull were wiped out in ashes while talking and laughing. I never thought that I would be so embarrassed. If I was not careful, I would easily lose my life. What kind of monsters are those Ming soldiers outside? Why did I hide? It can also destroy the crown of the official."

"The firearms of the Ming army have always been sharp, so you don't have to be surprised, but no matter how powerful the firearms are, they can't penetrate the city wall. I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort for these infantrymen of the Guards to break through Wuqiao County. Now, for the current plan, the master still wants to Figure out how to escape."

As soon as the Dian Shi finished speaking, Lou Sheng also nodded in agreement: "You are right, Xu Dianshi, you should quietly look outside to see how many Ming troops are outside and whether there has been any increase."

"Yes!"

As soon as this Xu Dianshi poked out half of his head, the guards quickly seized the opportunity and shot him. Three bullets directly pierced this Dianshi's head, and Xu Dianshi fell to the ground on the spot. I was frightened to learn that Xian Lou Sheng didn't recover for a while.
