    Like dozens of firecrackers exploding at the same time, more than 600 Chu army musketeers fired their first volley.  After the gunfire, many figures of the Western Army fell down, and the formation became sparser.  Immediately afterwards, there was a second firing.  The third firing.  In three stages of continuous shooting, two thousand musketeers fired about two thousand bullets. Less than half of the soldiers in the first two rows of the Western Army were left. The other more than a hundred people were either killed directly or fell to the ground after being injured.  , wailing in pain.  Liu Wenxiu watched the battle from a high place, nodded slightly and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.  "Quick! Charge me!" Qi Sansheng became even more excited, waving the horse sword in his hand vigorously, urging the Western soldiers to speed up the charge.  Skirmishing tactics worked!  Two thousand bullets only knocked down more than a hundred people, and the hit rate was less than one-tenth. Liu Wenxiu and Qi Sansheng were already very satisfied with this result. In the battle on the river beach just now, the Western Army was in a dense formation, so Chu  The hit rate of the gunmen was astonishingly high, and they were defeated in just a few rounds of volleys. However, the current losses were within the tolerable range, and Qi Sansheng's muscles and bones were not injured. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Rush!  Liu Wenxiu secretly cheered for the Western Army.  In order to deal with the Chu army, Liu Wenxiu put a lot of effort into the tactics of the musketeers some time ago. According to his understanding, the musketeers are a bit like Cheng Yaojin's three-axe. The first three volleys of three-stage shooting have the fastest firing rate.  , and the most accurate shot, but then they have to complete tactical actions such as loading ammunition, formation rotation, etc. The rate of fire will inevitably decrease. Because of the influence of gunpowder and gunpowder, the accuracy of shooting will also decrease. The soldiers are nervously  During the battle, various mistakes will be made, more firearms will malfunction, and the firepower density will become lower and lower In short, judging from the proportion of casualties caused by the previous three volleys of guns, the Western soldiers only need to bite  If you charge forward with gritted teeth, you will definitely be able to break through the opponent's fire interception and win this battle. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Rush!  The Chu army's musketeers have all fired their first bullets. Although the three-stage shooting can maintain the continuity of shooting to a certain extent, there will be a small pause period in the middle. As long as you seize this opportunity, it is easy to  Rush up a long distance.  "Kill!" The soldiers of the Western Army broke out with all their strength, running forward in small steps with heavy armor on their backs. The soldiers in the back row stepped forward to fill the gaps in the front row. They were all the bravest soldiers under Qi Sansheng.  Have enough awareness to sacrifice yourself to create opportunities for your companions.  "Bang bang bang bang!" The Chu army's gunshots rang out again. Those Western soldiers who were rushing at the front fell on the hillside one after another as if they were hit head-on by heavy hammers.  Immediately afterwards, there was a second firing.  The third firing.  Completed another round of three-stage shooting.  Liu Wenxiu¡¯s body straightened up suddenly, as if he had also been hit by a bullet.  Too fast, the Chu army's rate of fire was too fast, and the reloading was completed in such a short period of time. It was twice as fast as the battle on the river beach just now, and it was completely beyond the scope of his cognition.  "Is this the true skill of the Chu army's musketry? No wonder the Eight Banners soldiers are vulnerable to them Such elite soldiers are truly invincible!" What Liu Wenxiu didn't know was that these three thousand muskets  The soldiers are all the best of the best, and the personnel and equipment are all the best. There is no second such army in the Chu army.  What Liu Wenxiu didn't even know was that the other musketeers in the Chu army were also growing rapidly, but the manufacturing speed of flintlock muskets was too slow. Most of the Chu army had not yet changed their equipment. If all the Chu soldiers were equipped with flintlock muskets, their combat effectiveness would be reduced.  Far surpassing the Western Army and forming a crushing advantage is not as simple as saying that they are invincible.  Liu Wenxiu only knew that if the Chu army maintained this rate of fire, it would be able to offset the advantage of the Western army's skirmishing charge. There is a big question mark now about whether the Western army soldiers can rush in front of them.  "Third row, reload." Veteran Wu muttered silently in his heart, and naturally clamped the gun body with his knees. He held the gunpowder bag in his right hand and lightly touched it to his mouth. It was bitten open by his teeth. He raised his thumbs at the same time.  The damaged spot on the gunpowder bag turned into a funnel of just the right size. He flipped his wrist and poured the gunpowder inside into the barrel with a flick of his hand. At the same time, he inserted the purge rod into the muzzle of the gun with his left hand.  , but a lead bullet fell from the middle of the finger and fell into the barrel of the gun first The whole set of movements is extremely familiar and has been optimized repeatedly. Only after long-term and rigorous training can this effect like a conditioned reflex be formed. All  The movement has formed a memory in the muscles and nerves, and has become an instinct that does not require thinking. Just like an experienced driver driving a car, when the left foot depresses the clutch, the right foot will inevitably release the accelerator, and at the same time, the right hand will go  Shift gears, hold on with your left handThe steering wheel is pressed, the back is pressed against the seat backrest, and the eyes and ears are also observing the road conditions There is no unnecessary movement in the whole body, no mistakes are made, and no time is wasted.  Veteran Wu still remembered that when he bit the powder packet, he used to bring it to his mouth with his backhand. However, this would require an extra wrist turn than the forehand, which delayed a little bit of time. Therefore, he was still the platoon leader at the time.  The big bull was targeted. Every time he trained, he stared at him with a small stick. Whenever he forgot to use his forehand, he would immediately throw the stick up. For more than ten days in a row, Wu Laobing's hands and neck were swollen like pig's trotters, and his face was swollen.  He and his mouth were also scarred, and then he completely got rid of this problem, but later there was a sequelae. When Wu Laobing had to eat, he used to use his chopsticks with his forehand. It was awkward no matter how he ate. Every time he ate with outsiders, he was stared at by others.  Watch.  "Third Platoon, reload!" The voice of the platoon leader came. Wu Laobing used his left hand to tighten the ammunition, and then stood with the gun. At the same time, he used the corner of his eye to look for his companions on the left and right.  I felt that I was standing a little off, so I moved two inches to the left.  Even when the battle is at its fiercest, Veteran Wu will check his status at any time and eliminate all unsafe factors in advance. Those recruits who have never experienced life and death will never be as calm as him.  "Three rows, take two steps forward." Veteran Wu muttered silently in his heart, while raising his eyes to look at the battlefield ahead.  "Third row, take two steps forward." Da Guniu's order was rigid and mechanical. Wu Laobing had already been prepared. Before Da Guniu finished speaking, he stepped forward and reached his fighting position. The muscles of his arms subconsciously moved  He was tense, ready to raise his gun at any time, and his eyes had been fixed on a Western soldier directly in front of him.  "Third row, raise your guns and aim." Veteran Wu silently recited the order that Big Bull would issue next, and made preparations in advance. His eyes were always aimed at the Western soldier who was staring at him, but the corner of his eye was full of surprises.  Looking at the direction of Da Guniu, he would not be caught off guard if Da Guniu changed his next order temporarily.  The battlefield was full of gunshots and shouts of death, and many other officers were also giving orders in a noisy and chaotic manner, but Veteran Wu turned a deaf ear and focused all his attention on Big Bull and the Western soldier, staring closely at their every move.  Only a veteran who has experienced hundreds of battles can be so focused on the battlefield.  "Three rows, raise your guns and aim." As soon as Da Guniu finished speaking, Wu Laobing's flintlock rifle had its flat end at shoulder level and locked onto the Western soldier who had been staring at the depression in the middle of the mountain.  "Third row, fire." Veteran Wu counted one, two, three silently in his mind, and his fingers tightened slightly, leaving only the last chance to pull the trigger.  "Three rows, fire." Big Gun Niu suddenly waved his sword, and Wu Laobing pulled the trigger almost at the same time. His bullets were like a sprinter starting with the gun. As soon as the referee fired the starting gun, it immediately rushed out of the gun chamber Reloading backwards  When firing, the gunpowder smoke in front of the position dissipated a little. Wu Laobing glanced and saw that the figure of the Western Army soldier had disappeared. At the same time, the Chu Army musketeers in the back row came to the front row and raised their guns to aim  Like precision-operated gears, the Chu army's musketeers rolled back and forth round after round, constantly firing deadly bullets. After many battles with the Qing army, the Chu army had been honed into an efficient war machine, and the musketeers were again  It is the sharpest weapon on this war machine.     too fast!  The Chu army's rate of fire is too fast!  Qi Sansheng didn't know how they did this, but the fact was right in front of him. Three consecutive rounds of three-part shooting. Because of the close connection, the rhythm of the three-part shooting could no longer be heard. Each round would defeat more than a hundred people.  Among the Western Army soldiers, Qi Sansheng's casualties exceeded 400 in the blink of an eye.  "I like to stand on the ground and shoot, being steady and not wasting time." Veteran Wu finished loading again. When observing the battlefield situation, he found that the Western Army suffered heavy casualties, which showed that the previous rounds of shooting were very effective.  Although the loose formation greatly reduced the hit rate of the flintlock muskets, the Chu army's musketeers solved this problem with dense formations and skilled tactics. The rate of fire was doubled compared to that on the river beach, and they killed many enemies.  As for the battle on the river beach, the soldiers of the Chu army were either standing on the swaying boat or in the turbulent river. Because the cabins were narrow and obstructed each other, the rate of fire and hit rate were greatly affected. If it weren't for the Western Army's platoon  With a dense and neat formation, victory may not be so easy.  "It looks like today is another complete victory." Zhu Huagui directed the battle of the entire company. He glanced across the battlefield in his busy schedule and nodded secretly in his heart.  The Western Army wore heavy armor, and no matter how hard they charged, their speed was limited. As soon as they reached a distance of sixty or seventy steps, they already suffered heavy casualties. Based on this ratio, even if they were all life-threatening lunatics, all six thousand armored soldiers would be killed.  On this battlefield, it would be difficult to rush into the thirty-step warning zone.???According to the Chu army's military code, if the enemy rushes within thirty steps, the musketeers will fire the last shot, fix the bayonets and prepare for hand-to-hand combat. On the other hand, if the enemy cannot even reach the warning zone of 30 steps, the musketeers will  A complete victory with few casualties will be achieved.  Yes, the Chu Army's musketeers have now suffered casualties. Some warriors in the Western Army, wearing several layers of armor, rushed to a closer place despite the rain of bullets and fired back at the Chu Army's musketeers with bows and arrows. The musketeers did not.  Wearing armor, some people were shot by bows and arrows, and there were casualties, but the number was not large.
