The three-eyed gun is also called "child and mother cannon". It is shorter than the musket and has a range that is less than the musket. It has almost no lethality to the target outside a hundred steps.

However, within a distance of about 40 steps, the power and accuracy of the three-eyed gun are much stronger than that of the musket. If the target is not wearing armor, it will definitely be severely damaged. Within nearly thirty steps, even if the target is wearing heavy armor, the three-eyed gun can easily break the armor and seriously injure the enemy.

In the early years, the Ming army did not have many three-eyed guns equipped, but now all units of the Ming army in Liaodong equipped this weapon, especially the cavalry units, which almost used this as standard.

Because these three-eyed guns can be fired three times quickly, and after fighting, they can cooperate with the speed of the war horse. The iron pipe at the front of the musket is better to the enemy than the spear and big sword.

There were not many three-eyed guns that resisted the Jin Dynasty and rescued **, and there were only more than 300 shots together. These were all pieced together by Mr. Li Qi from Gai and Fu and others in order to "redeem themselves". It was probably worth six taels of silver per shot.

Wei Xuewen's cavalry brigade was the seed that Eunuch Wei focused on cultivation, and he naturally gained a focus on resources in military equipment. The entire brigade distributed a total of 300 shots.

In the previous few small-scale battles with the Jin army, the Three-Eye Gun had actual combat, but the effect was relatively not good. The reason was that the two sides participated in the war too little, which made the Ming army unable to use the Three-Eye Gun to form strong firepower suppression.

Moreover, when the number of people on both sides is small, the Ming army soldiers who use the three-eyed gun must break through to the opponent's distance of about fifty steps before they can fire the gun, which makes the three-eyed gun as dispensable as a useless one.

Instead of taking risks and getting closer, it is better to use a longbow or directly slash.

This time is different. This is the first time that the cavalry brigade has attacked the entire battalion since its establishment, and it is facing an opponent with an advantage in force. Therefore, Wei Xuewen made detailed arrangements for this battle as early as before the charge.

After several considerations, Wei Xuewen adopted the strategy of using three-eyed guns on a large scale, and the dense firepower formed by three consecutive shots could penetrate the opponent's defense line and then disperse the Jin army.

To successfully achieve this goal, it naturally means that the officers and soldiers participating in the attack will suffer a lot of casualties within fifty steps.

Wei Xuewen felt very uncomfortable when the general flag was killed by the general flag. This man was born in the Flying Tiger Army and had always been a personal guard by Uncle Thirteen. He was considered an old man from the Imperial Army. Unexpectedly, he died in Liaodong after being released for less than half a year. It was really sad.

"Waring war will kill people. Can people not die? What you have to do is fight for immortality. As long as you do not die, you will be an excellent general and will be more famous in history in the future. When we get old, we can point at you juniors to protect us."

Uncle Thirteen's teachings flashed in Xuewen's mind, and he also fired the three-eyed gun in his hand.

With a "bang", the yellow braid who was pulling his bow and aiming at him was knocked away and knocked down the two Jin soldiers behind him.

The yellow-toothed braid without any armor protection was almost broken on his chest, and the dense projectiles were buried deep in his body like maggots attached to the bone.

The blood couldn't stop surging out, causing the yellow-toothed braid to lose consciousness soon.

The last time he saw was that the Ming army, who was already dozens of steps away, had already rushed to him.

One after another, the guns rang out, and amid the "bang", the Wei army, who had suffered nearly a hundred casualties, began to fight back against the Jin army.

The Ming army officers and soldiers holding three-eyed guns did not need to aim at them at all. They just turned the gun forward. Every time the black muzzle sounded, a Jin soldier would scream when the gun smoke rose.

Within such a close distance, not to mention leather and cotton armor, even iron armor will be penetrated!

After just a few breaths, Xitala seemed to have walked to hell.

The subordinates who were originally standing in several rows on their side became empty in the blink of an eye. At least seventy or eighty soldiers were killed and injured by the opponent's muskets.

The one who flattered his master before was the most unlucky. He was not killed by the Ming army's musket, but was shot to death by a guy who lost his strength after being shot and trembled his hands.

The arrow was originally heading towards the sky, and God knew how it would fly to his neck!

The unlucky Goshha stood there stupidly with unwillingness, covering his neck. He didn't know whether he should pull out the arrow stuck in his neck or not.

Until he fell to the ground, he did not make a choice.

Mingren’s firearm is indeed powerful!

The big explosion that occurred during the Second Jiala yesterday made Xi Tala feel extremely cruel to the Ming army's firearms, but the scenes being staged around him made him instinctively deepen this impression.

Accompanied by the sound of gunfire, strange things thrown in by the Ming army like stones were smashed around him, and it was like fish were swept to the ground by a tornado.

Xitala didn't even see what the things were, and the thing exploded. In the black smoke, there were screams from his subordinates, iron nails and lead balls splashing everywhere.

This is called "grenade" by the Ming army and is a weapon recently equipped by the Ming army.

"Grenade" is actually a stone mine developed by the Military Affairs Bureau. However, Andre, a Portuguese mercenary military worker hired by the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, has made some improvements to the stone mine, so that the stone mine does not need to be ignited by the flint on the top, but relies on the flint installed on the top to replace the flint. The principle is the same as the flintlock rifle that is being mass-produced by the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau.

The improved stone thunder can be used even for a child and can quickly explode and kill the enemy. Therefore, it was highly praised by Eunuch Wei. He personally named this weapon "grenade" and asked the ward yamen to allocate funds to mass production.

With the "grenade", Andre received the second prize of the Imperial Army's scientific and technological invention in the 43rd year of Wanli, with a total value of about 5,000 Spanish silver dollars.

It is said that Eunuch Wei also drew two things on the note he approved. He wanted to manufacture the General Administration to follow the drawings, emphasizing that he should not use the previous pottery and stone thunders, but should do as much as possible to make iron.

Because the "grenade" was developed three months ago and has not been tested in practice, the number of distributions to the anti-Gold and rescue ** is not large, and it is a "bottom-bottom".

Now, I have used it all. If I don’t use it, I’m afraid I won’t have a chance.

The throwing of hundreds of grenades made the two Niulu Jin soldiers in front of the cavalry brigade quickly become a mess. After taking the medicine, the Ming army raised the three-eyed gun high and stepped into the Jin army's defense line, which was killed and injured.

Xitala was not killed by a grenade, but he was scared.

The previous disdain for Ming Jun and the dissatisfaction in their bones, the feeling of shooting Ming Jun was gone, and it was replaced by fear.

A fear that no one has seen before!

With a "punch", Wei Xuewen rode his horse over Xitala, and the musket in his hand hit Xita's head like an iron hammer.

Niu Lu'er's death really made the dozens of Jin soldiers in the second Niu Lu completely lose their souls. They turned around and ran backwards at the same time.
