- "Kill the barbarians and expel the barbarians!"
Like a tidal wave, the large army rushed to the dock area in an instant, panting, screaming, and screaming.
In the swirling dust, the two armies were fighting each other. [com]
"Papa, papa, papa!" There was a continuous sound of fire and gunfire, and the horses fell over one after another. The horses neighed and rolled in pain, while the remaining barbarians roared and continued to move forward with their sabers waving.
"Move forward!" someone ordered.
When the two armies faced each other, the army shouted in unison, which shook the heaven and earth. After shouting, their morale was greatly boosted. As the coach, Lu Suhai also felt excited.
On the opposite side, there were two thousand Hu soldiers. Although these Hu soldiers were small in number, they did not surrender. The so-called "persuasion to surrender" eventually broke down and could only be settled through war and blood.
Lu Suhai looked to the left and right. The officers following him, whether they were older or slightly childish soldiers, were all eager to try.
Among them, the young captain who was born in the martial arts hall has lost his immaturity and become more stable after several battles. He has more vigorous energy. This kind of energy that young officers often have makes Lu Suhai sigh. Although he He himself is actually an out-and-out young man.
Ten thousand people entered the harbor to fight, and the other troops stayed on the ships. With these troops to fight against the Hu people, Lu Suhai first felt that ten thousand people were more than enough to defeat two thousand, and secondly, he wanted to practice the new fire gun army he had just formed. and the new officers in the martial arts hall.
Lu Suhai was not sure how many opportunities there would be to train new recruits like this in the future. However, the Yanwu Hall's establishment of naval courses gave him some comfort. It seemed that the imperial court would at least not abolish the navy.
"go ahead!"
"Bah, bang, bang, bang!" The firecrackers roared in unison, and there was no bullet or smoke. In the thick smoke, a row of barbarians were knocked to the ground, rolling on the ground and screaming loudly.
Fire blunderbuss have been around for a few years. The Ministry of Industry and the Shaofu have improved the technology many times with huge bounties. Now the fire blunderbuss is excellent, with a range of 60 steps, and is beginning to catch up with bows and arrows.
The number of Fire Gun Soldiers is only 2,000, including 500 veterans and 1,500 new recruits.
The so-called recruits are actually qualified in terms of shooting ability, but they have not been on the battlefield and are missing something. This time is to let them mature on the battlefield.
At this moment, a horse galloped towards the high platform set up. This person was waving a small flag in his hand and was the flag officer conveying the news in the formation.
With the arrival of this person, the soldiers on the high platform saw the content of the flag. Someone immediately came to Lu Suhai, knelt down and said: "Grand Governor, a Hu army in the city, numbering about three thousand, has rushed towards Lu Suhai." South of the formation!"
Lu Suhai, who was on the high platform, looked at the changing square formations around him and showed a smile. The next moment, his smile faded and he said, "I already know."
With the fire gun team in hand, let him give the barbarian a powerful blow!
Standing on the high platform with Lu Suhai to watch the battle were the generals who accompanied the army. They were full of confidence in the governor. Although the enemies were mostly cavalry, they used fire blunderbuss formations to defend against the enemy, and there were many firearms on the ships, so they were not worried. .
The only worry may be whether it can achieve the desired effect and defeat the barbarians in one fell swoop.
The flag bearers on the high platform are constantly waving the small flags in their hands. The flags are different colors, each has its own usage, and is constantly changing. This is to convey military orders, and the military formation also changes at any time due to changes in the small flags.
Each square formation has a flag bearer who conveys the message. It is still possible to convey the order at this time. Soon the news that the southern military formation saw Hu Bing came over.
Lu Suhai ordered: "Have the gunmen and archers from the south take action immediately and meet the enemy on the spot!"
"Promise!" A flag bearer immediately responded, waving the flag in his hand and conveying the news to the south.
Thick smoke and dust rose from the horizon in the distance, and there was a thunderous sound of horse hooves. The black cavalry rushed in from the south. When they reached a certain distance, they slowed down. The team gradually became more serious. After a while, they accelerated violently, urging the horses, and rushed forward like wind and residual clouds. .
"Ready!" The Fire Gun Soldier took out the fixed paper tube ammunition from the oil bag and quickly loaded it.
"Aim!" The voice of the person who gave the order changed a bit. Seeing the Hu army coming in front, with their horses' heads swaying and their hooves thundering, many soldiers looked frightened.
"Shoot!"
"Bah, bang, bang!" A row of fire guns emitted a large amount of fire and smoke, and screams could be heard. However, according to the training of the martial arts hall, everyone did not look at the front at all. The front row immediately moved away from left and right, and the back row Take three quick steps forward.
"Shoot!"
¡°Bah bang bang bang!¡±
"Shoot!"
¡°Bah bang bang bang!¡±
The gunshots were fired one after another, and three rounds of shooting were fired continuously. According to the requirements, one shot was fired every thirty seconds, and a thick white smoke covered the front.
The officer did not order a ceasefire, but continued to issue orders until the company platooned three times, for a total of nine times, before it ceased fire and waited for the smoke to clear to observe the results of the battle.
This is the result based on experiments. At this rate of fire, if the firecracker fires nine times in a row, the smoking firecracker must be allowed to cool down, otherwise there is a risk of exploding at high temperatures.
After nine consecutive shots, the gunpowder smoke dissipated, and within a range of twenty to sixty steps, there were densely packed bodies of rolling and screaming soldiers. Some of them were beaten to death on the spot, and some of them were bloody and screaming.
Looking at the horrific scene in front of them, Hu Bing suddenly looked horrified in the distance, and some even screamed at the top of their lungs.
Looking at the results of the battle, Lu Suhai was quite surprised and murmured: "The fire guns are getting more and more powerful. I'm afraid that in the future, they will not only be used for water battles and city defenses, but also for field battles."
The cavalry was circling in place. For a while, these barbarian cavalry did not dare to step forward.
"Thousands of households, the Han people have great firearms!" someone said.
The leader, Qianhu, reined in his mount a little impatiently and looked around: "Is there any way to rush over?"
Qianhu had never encountered this situation before. The air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder and blood. In just a moment, three hundred cavalrymen were beaten to death.
One-tenth of the body died in one minute. This kind of casualties is really unbearable.
"Qianhu! Come up with an idea!" The vanguards sent out to test the enemy's reality basically never came back. This situation is not good.
"Ask the people on patrol, what did they see?" Qianhu suppressed his roar and said in silence for a moment.
"No!" Someone looked at him immediately.
One mile ahead, in the wilderness in front of the port, there is a strict military formation.
The middle army is infantry, followed by a cavalry of about 300 people. That's fine. The three rows of gun soldiers in front are quietly arrayed, and the dark muzzles of their guns have been discharged. This makes all the Hu people feel a chill in their hearts.
Seeing this situation, Qianhu secretly felt chilled and shouted: "Quickly organize the team!"
Hu Jun quickly formed his formation. At this time, the sound of killings in the harbor gradually subsided, and the sound of drums sounded. Thousands of soldiers with firecrackers came out of the harbor holding firecrackers.
Seeing this, Qianhu fell silent. If we say that when they first entered the Central Plains, they were all arrogant and held their heads high. They were the strongest army and the most powerful warriors in the world. No one could stop their progress.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? I have no intention of retreating, even if I fight on the battlefield.
But now the luck is gone. Once the luck is gone, morale is low and dissent is everywhere. The same goes for these households.
Seeing that the Han army is like a sea of ????military forces, I am afraid that there are more than tens of thousands, and the number will increase as the battle continues. With these 3,000 men, I cannot waste them here in vain.
Youzhou can¡¯t be defended anyway, so it¡¯s better to go back to the grassland, take what you can take with you, and set off immediately. Thinking of this, he said: ¡°Retract the troops and return to the city!¡±
The Hu army retreated as quickly as it came, and quickly withdrew from the battlefield.
Immediately, cheers erupted from the battlefield.
"Grand Governor, we have captured this port."
"Grand Governor, there are only a few thousand Hu troops in the city. We can defeat them and make a great contribution." The generals around him said one after another, which made Lu Suhai couldn't help but smile.
Lu Suhai quickly issued an order: "The whole army will be rewarded with meat tonight."
And he ordered: "Repair the port immediately, set up the army, and send cavalry to check the movements of the barbarians immediately, and stay vigilant!"
Although we talk about the navy, there are actually hundreds of cavalry, which are used to maintain contact and ultimately protect the general.
After giving the order, the sailors on the ship came up one after another, extinguished the burning fire, cleaned up the corpses one by one, and officers divided the camp and placed the wounded soldiers.
After this set was completed, supplies from the rear were continuously delivered. In the open space, broth was boiled and barbecued meats were stewed. In addition to the soldiers on patrol, each battalion found a suitable place to sit down after distinguishing the camps. Waiting for dinner to begin.
Since there were ships carrying food, it didn¡¯t take long for baskets of fresh meat to be delivered, and sealed cans were also delivered.
Dried meat, dried vegetables and other items were used to make soup, and fresh meat was roasted and eaten. After a while, the entire camp was filled with a strong aroma of meat.
After eating meat and drinking broth, the soldiers were very quiet and began to rest after eating.
But at this moment, the cavalry rushed back.
Lu Suhai is having a meal, Hong Kong?After defeating it, the city below is also a county town. This requires careful planning. Just then I thought about it, and saw the soldiers coming in with an officer from outside.
Lu Suhai smiled: "You're back now, what's the matter?"
"Grand Governor!" The team leader immediately said, "Something is wrong in the city. Hu's army is retreating overnight. There are many torches and noisy people!"
Lu Suhai was startled, stood up and looked closely: "Really?"
The team immediately said: "Yes, a few of our brothers took a closer look. It is indeed the case. The barbarians are about to escape"
Lu Suhai¡¯s face suddenly turned green: ¡°Here comes someone!¡±
Several soldiers came in and answered: "Here we are!"
"After the order is passed, the generals will be assembled immediately, and the cavalry will be organized immediately to obey the order."
"No!" The soldiers immediately went out and conveyed the order.
Lu Suhai saw the soldiers leaving and walked around the camp a few times. Many thoughts emerged in his mind. For a moment, he showed a wry smile.
The Hu people are also human beings. When the situation is over, they will flee and fall apart. The hard fight originally prepared may not be necessary.
But even so, we must be on guard against the barbarians pretending to leave the city and making a real surprise attack. After all, the enemy is cavalry.
Of course, as long as you are prepared, there is no big problem. The enemy only has 3,000 and you have 30,000. As long as you are careful everywhere, there will be no serious problems. - Didn't finish reading?
