Chapter 120 Hollow Square

"Kill! Those who break through the defense line of the Liao army will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver!" Bahar personally took charge of the central army and commanded the mixed lunge troops to launch a charge of Yang Tai's first battalion that was ready to die!

Under the pressure of muskets, he really couldn't come up with any suitable tactics, so he could only try to break through the defense line of the Refuge Liao Army as soon as possible! In addition, what can reduce losses is to let the troops be slightly dispersed and not gather together to become a living target of the Refuge Liao Army.

"Fight according to the first combat plan." Yang Tai looked excitedly at the Jin soldiers who began to charge.

"General Yang, something is wrong. Look at their offensive troops, there are only cavalry missing." Tian Meng immediately noticed something wrong with the Jin soldiers. "At this time, the battle should be carried out according to the third combat plan."

Yang Tai, who was experiencing blood, listened to Tian Meng's words and looked carefully. It was true that what Hetian Meng said was that the Jin army, which had always had cavalry troops waiting for the opportunity, had fewer cavalry assistance this time, which revealed some strangeness.

"Okay, let's form a square formation according to the third combat plan." Yang Tai made an order.

Several brigade commanders who received the order led the command to quickly arrange defenses according to the combat plan of daily exercises. The two sides of the long line of the soldiers who originally formed a row of long lines retreated back and quickly formed a new military formation. This military formation was no longer a straight line, but a rectangular hollow square formation, with three dense columns of musketeers on each side, and the center of the hollow square formation was the battalion commander, civil servant and battalion artillery team of the first battalion. The reason for this was a hollow square formation was that the center of the square formation did not appear to be crowded.

"The artillery team's artillery bombarded my infantry formation!" Yang Tai found the person in charge of the artillery team and said fiercely.

"yes!"

The twelve cannons arranged in the middle of the hollow square array were pushed into the direction where Bahar and the others rushed over.

"Arson!"

As Bahar and the others approached, the most advanced artillery among the twelve Restoration Army roared first, and the earth trembled!

Boom boom boom!!!

The white smoke scattered everywhere, and terrifying shells drew a shrill track in the air and fell into the middle of the charge of the Jin army! These latest artillery fired a distance of one to two miles, directly bombarding the most dense parts of the Jin soldiers!

Boom. A grenade exploded on the ground, and more than a dozen iron pieces splashed, killing several nearby Jin soldiers on the spot! The shrapnel was extremely lethal, and brought out all the bloody intestines of the Jin soldiers hitting the forest!

A grenade fell not far from Bahar, hiding in the crowd. His cheek was hit by a foreign object, and it hurt bitterly. At that moment, Bahar thought he had been hit by the artillery of the Fu Liao army. Later, he came back to his senses and realized that this was just the soil splashed when the shell exploded.

The deterrent power of artillery is far greater than the damage it causes, and thousands of charge infantry camps were killed.

"Jia La Ezhen, the artillery fire of the Fu Liao army is too fierce, and the brothers are beginning to be afraid and dare not rush forward." Niu Lu, who are supervising the battle, complained to Bahar one after another.

"The person who retreats dies, and those who do not rush forward will die!" Bahar's ears were slightly tinnitus because of the loud noise of artillery. He shouted at the top of his lungs, "For the national destiny of our Dajin, this battle must be won!"

"Everyone is calm and you must not shoot without my order!"

The hollow formation faces the Bahar side, and there are rows of musketeers. Some of them have participated in the previous battles with the Jin soldiers, and some of them are newly recruited recruits. They have only been trained many times and have not participated in the cruel battle. In this direction, the most elite brigade in the first battalion is responsible for the defense. The captain's men also have various squadrons and squads command each row and every section of musketeers, and the orders are prohibited.

The artillery bombarded three or four rounds within the range, defeating part of the attacking Jin soldiers' fronts. The remaining Jin soldiers and infantry still advanced under the supervision of Niu Lu.

"Sir, the enemy is less than fifty meters away. Wouldn't we still shoot?" An a new recruit who was approaching the commander of the supervising team shouted anxiously while aiming at the increasingly clear Jin soldiers.

"You're so anxious. As you do what you do on weekdays, you'll be fine!" The captain of the supervising team raised the flag and said, "Prepare!"

The first and second row of Jin soldiers came from infantry with shields. If they were shooting at too long distances, the power of the musket would be a waste of bullets at this time, so they had to wait until the distance between the two sides was close before firing.

"Prepare, shoot!" The supervising officer on the defense line ordered that rows of muskets emitted white smoke, filling the entire battlefield, shooting the Jin soldiers and infantry rushing over in panting!

"Change teams and load them!" After the musketeers in the first row were shot, the musketeers behind stepped forward and shot continuously!

When the Jin soldiers came over, the new recruits who were on the battlefield for the first time were still a little nervous, but as the first shot fired, the tension in the hearts of these new recruits disappeared, and their bodies mechanically responded according to their daily practice. Moreover, the smoke of gunpowders blocked the vision of the musketeers. If they couldn't see the enemy clearly, they didn't need to be nervous, they just needed to load and shoot continuously!

"Aim at the opponent's military flag and try to knock out their commander."

Yang Tai saw that the front line of defense had already exchanged fire with the enemy, which meant that almost all the enemy infantry had entered the range covered by artillery, and his own artillery would hit wherever he wanted! As the distance between the two sides approached, the speed of the Jin infantry charging in front dropped sharply, overlapping with the infantry behind, increasing the lethality of the cannon several times.

"Kill!" Bahar, whose face was covered in blood, showed his bloody side and fell into the madness of a gambler. He even braved his musket and led his personal soldiers to attack the defense line of the Fu Liao army!

Sneak - A bullet struck Bahar's shoulder and a blood mark was wiped out. But the crazy Bahar did not notice it, and still stepped on his companion's body without hesitation, waving a big knife to slash the Fu Liao army soldiers who were inserted into the bayonet in the front row.

"Bahal has won us an opportunity to defeat the Restoration Army today. Everyone, for the glory of the Great Jin Kingdom, follow me!"

Chilu appeared behind the First Battalion with three and a half Niulu cavalry. They first trotted, but soon turned into jogging.

"Kill!" Shouts were everywhere, and the team of thousands of cavalry rode their horses and rushed forward!

Now the firepower of the Fu Liao army is attracted by the infantry led by Bahar. As long as the cavalry led by himself appears behind the Fu Liao army and a rain of arrows falls, the Fu Liao army will be in chaos. Bahar holds a ox horn bow and clamps the horse's belly with his feet. This is what he thought.
