Kill the enemies who destroyed our home!
The coalition forces of the five major Indian tribes could no longer bear it under the bombardment.
If they continue to stand there in formation, they will be killed by artillery fire without the enemy taking action.
Therefore, launching a charge at this time is a wise choice. Besides, if they don't charge, there is no other way.
"In fact, what the five major tribes coalition forces don't know is that the artillery on the empire's side is very powerful, but after the artillery fires six consecutive rounds, it takes half an hour to cool down before it can continue to be used.
This is also due to the use of inferior iron slag cannons.
But this is a secret belonging to the empire. Except for the high-level people like Wang Shan and others, many middle- and low-level Chinese genetic people do not know it.
Therefore, how could the people from the five major Indian tribes coalition know?
They just feel that the enemy¡¯s weapons that can make thunder will definitely be used non-stop.
In such a situation, they cannot sit still and wait for death, but can only take the initiative to launch a charge and fight the enemy head-on.
Opposite, in front of the allied forces of the five major tribes, the Indian warriors shouted loudly and rushed towards their own position. However, due to the long distance, there was not much nervousness on the faces of the imperial soldiers.
On the contrary, the vassal Indian troops on both wings caused a commotion.
However, this commotion was quickly suppressed by their leader.
Before the war, they understood the orders brought by the eagle very clearly.
And in the earlier battles, the final consequences of those guys who disobeyed orders are still fresh in their minds.
Although the Governor-General of the Song Empire was very young, he was not merciless at all when it came to killing people.
"Even some of the priests were killed.
In front of this God of Death, it is better to obey orders.
Yes. The plan was disrupted at that time because some priests issued so-called oracles indiscriminately. For this reason, Wang Shan killed several sacrifices, and only then did they know how powerful he was.
For an Indian tribe, a priest is someone who absolutely needs to look up to, and their status is very high.
When ordinary Indians see sacrifices, they will tremble with fear.
Even the priests can challenge the authority of the patriarch in many cases.
But all this is just a cloud in front of Wang Shan, and he doesn't care about it anymore.
How could these Indians not be afraid of a guy who even dared to kill a priest?
Don¡¯t talk about those ordinary Indian warriors. Even some of the clan leaders were panicking.
Therefore, they dare not disobey Wang Shan¡¯s instructions.
Besides, they now eat and drink well with Wang Shan, and even their family¡¯s lives have been greatly improved. Even if their brains are not very good, they still know who to follow to have a future.
The priests were originally people with medical skills in the tribe. The main reason why everyone respects them is that they can cure diseases. As for the so-called gods and so on, this is secondary.
But under Wang Shan, they don¡¯t have to worry about medical treatment at all.
Whenever there is something uncomfortable. Two pills solved the problem.
The effect of curing diseases is even more effective than those of the sacrifices.
Therefore, the status of the priests has been greatly reduced here in Wangshan.
Therefore, the sacrifices of several tribes were executed. It didn't make any waves here.
"Musketeers prepare!"
The Indian coalition forces of the five major tribes on the opposite side launched a charge, and the artillery will soon be useless.
Therefore, under the command of the commander, the artillery team in the rear began to increase the firing speed as much as possible. Get ready before the Musketeers go into battle. Inflict as many casualties on the enemy as possible.
On the vast white grassland, both sides gathered an army of more than 200,000 people.
??This is the first time in the history of America that a battle of this scale has occurred.
That is, in the original history. Such large-scale battles only occurred when the British immigrants resisted the rule of the British Empire and sought independence, and during the Civil War after they established the United States.
But, in the early seventeenth century, in the winter of 1623.
Because of the emergence of the Song Empire and its tentacles extending toOn the west coast of America, a war of this scale occurred.
However, I think this is the only time a war of this scale will happen.
After this battle is over, it will never be possible for such a big battle to break out in America again.
Unless the Song Empire split into civil war, this is unlikely.
As long as Zhao Hongyu is still alive, it is impossible for the Song Empire to split.
??The explosive bombs continued to explode, knocking the five tribal warriors on the charge to the ground, but the warriors behind continued to rush towards this side.
Because they all know very well that if they fail in this war, they will no longer have the strength to fight against these powerful enemies.
And what will happen next will be that the enemy will destroy their tribe, and their families will die in pain under the enemy's sword. Those who survive will become each other's slaves and live in darkness from now on.
So, no matter what, they will continue to rush towards the enemy.
rush! rush! rush!
As long as they can rush in front of the enemy, they will use the weapons in their hands to let the enemy know their courage and power.
You just need to rush in front of the enemy.
Basically, the Indian warriors of the five major tribes coalition have the same idea.
Before the war, their priests and clan leaders also told them this.
There is nothing wrong with the enemy being very powerful, but the enemy mainly relies on weapons they have never seen before.
This weapon can hit them at a long distance, so if they want to win this battle or even the war, they need to rush in front of the enemy.
Thinking about it, the enemy's close combat capability shouldn't be so powerful.
Of course, this idea is just a conjecture of the top leaders of the five major tribes. They have no idea how powerful the Imperial Army soldiers are.
Not to mention suppressing them with long-range weapons, even if they were allowed to rush closer, they would not be able to take advantage.
More than a thousand meters away. That's enough for the artillery to fire four rounds.
When the artillery team in the rear fired four shells, the soldiers of the five major tribal alliances had already rushed to a place three hundred meters away from the imperial army.
At such a distance, it is already very close.
And this distance is also the shooting range of the musket.
? ?Everyone has it, get ready!
Shoot!
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Boom! Boom!
Just when the charging soldiers were feeling excited, they suffered a sudden blow.
As they charged, they were about to rush in front of the enemy. These Indian warriors firmly believed that as long as they rushed in front of the enemy, they would be able to win the final victory.
But. The reality is very cruel, and the facts are very different from their imagination.
Just when they were about to rush in front of the enemy, the enemy pointed a weapon that looked like a wooden stick at them, and then they heard a crackling sound.
Immediately afterwards, bursts of blue smoke rose from the enemy's position.
Before the soldiers in the front row could react, they felt as if they had been hit hard, and then a sharp pain began to spread, and then they fell to the ground involuntarily.
¡°Do you know what it¡¯s like to mow the grass?¡±
As the musketeers started shooting, Old God Wang Shan asked the genetic man beside him to protect him.
In such a tense fighting moment. Wang Shan actually still had time to discuss this issue.
It has to be said that he is really quite nervous.
But, this is not surprising.
In fact, the elite guards surrounding him also didn¡¯t have any nervous look on their faces. On the contrary, everyone was very relaxed.
It¡¯s as if they are not experiencing a battle at all now, but are instead on an outing.
This comes from their confidence in the Imperial Army, and they firmly believe that they are in front of the Imperial Army. These seemingly powerful and fierce enemies are definitely not our opponents.
This confidence comes from many sources, such as confidence in weapons and confidence in the tactics of the Imperial Army. More importantly, the rise of the empire is the confidence accumulated from those battles and victories.
Although the rise of the empire only lasted for more than three years, the empire has never lost no matter how big or small the war is.
This also made the soldiers in the imperial armyI believe they have no rivals in this era.
Even when there is a huge disparity in military strength, they can defeat the enemy.
You must know that the weapons in their hands are ahead of this era, this is absolutely no joke.
"The first row retreats, the second row steps forward, shoot!"
Crack, crackle!
Well! Wow!
The enemy rushing over like a wave seemed to have encountered a thick city wall. Within the 200-meter shooting range of the Imperial Army's muskets, this wave of people was constantly blocked and could no longer enter.
Those warriors who were knocked down had no time to get up. They were trampled under the feet of their companions who rushed up from behind. Some of them were even trampled to death alive.
In fact, when there are a lot of people in a battle, as long as you fall down, you basically won¡¯t be able to get up.
Many times, you will be trampled to death by your own people.
This is a very cruel fact in the cold weapon era.
Individual bravery is basically useless in a battle involving more than 200,000 people.
Because no matter how powerful you are, you can't face an opponent at the same time.
Yes, all it takes is an opponent to put you to death.
The soldiers who rushed up from behind had no idea what was happening in front of them.
In front of them, apart from the pieces of human heads, there was only the back of the head.
Large-scale battles are like this. As a low-level soldier, you have no control over your own destiny and can only follow the crowd.
Thirty-four thousand Imperial Army troops formed a musket array hundreds of meters long.
With two teams, ten rows and columns, we can definitely bring out the maximum advantage and power of the muskets.
With continuous shooting, the enemy's charge was contained at a distance of 200 meters, which was enough to show the power of the Empire's muskets.
The Imperial Army's front in the center is under the greatest pressure, and the enemy's impact here is the most severe.
It is obvious that the enemy wants to use the central part as a breakthrough point, hoping to defeat himself in one fell swoop.
This idea is very good, but what the enemy doesn't know is that the most powerful force in this army is the team in the central area.
At this time, the vassal troops on both wings also began to fight the enemy sporadically.
Because the opponent's main attack direction is the center of Wang Shan's military formation, the pressure on the two wings is much smaller than that in the middle.
When opponents armed with stone weapons faced vassal tribe warriors who had upgraded to use iron weapons, their disadvantage suddenly became apparent.
The sharp machete can easily destroy the opponent's weapon, and then slash back hard on their body.
Of course, only a few people can receive such treatment, because most people died during the impact.
In front of the front line of the vassal troops, densely packed spears have been erected, forming a spear array like a hedgehog.
These spears are about four or five meters in length, with sharp iron spear points inlaid on the top.
This kind of weapon was made by Wang Shan considering the combat effectiveness of the vassal troops.
Although the individual fighting power of the Indians is very strong, when fighting in groups, their disadvantages are very obvious.
Their lack of organization and discipline gave Wang Shan a huge headache.
Faced with such a situation, Wang Shan could only buy a large number of spears and give them to them, and then told them how to form a spear array.
After all, spear formation does not require a long period of training, as long as you have the strength to move the spear.
Anyway, Wang Shan didn¡¯t expect them to be able to use the spear array as well as the Macedonians.
Wang Shan only hopes that they can withstand the enemy's charge once.
Just like that, a group of Indian spearmen appeared.
Now, these spearmen are reaping the lives of their enemies.
With a spear that is four to five meters long, basically the enemy cannot rush over at all.
Because they have to face more than one spear, but a dense one.
In order to maximize the power given to them by Wang Shan, he even asked these vassal Indians to form a four-layer spear formation.
That is to say, in front of the enemy, he has to face a total of more than a dozen spears on four levels. Only after escaping the assassination of these spears can heHe rushed forward unharmed.
Such behavior is dangerous and difficult.
Basically, few people are lucky enough to avoid this spear formation.
But even some lucky ones were able to escape and rush in.
But what awaits them will be Indian warriors armed with axes and machetes.
On the snow-covered plain, the shouts of killing shook the sky.
Streams of blood sprayed out fell on the snow, adding a bit of glamor to the snowy grassland.

As the battle progressed, the vultures in the sky screamed excitedly, because they knew one thing very well, that is, when the battle was over, they would have a rich meal (To be continued) - Didn't finish reading?
