Then he said loudly: "These Mongolian Tatars are actually learning the methods of our ancestors to scare people! Do they think we can't tell when they light two torches each? They are so stupid!"
Officers at all levels quickly passed on Liu Haojia's words, which immediately caused a burst of laughter among the soldiers! The soldiers also felt that there was something wrong with the minds of these Mongolians, and they actually used their brains with the Han people! Therefore, the power that Haqi had painstakingly built was lost on Liu Haojia.
It was wiped out in one sentence!
But Hutch didn't know this. He felt that he would definitely scare his opponent, so he launched the attack with confidence!
This time, the cavalrymen who rushed forward lay on their horses and held up a huge shield to protect their horses and themselves. Others around them also held crude wooden shields. It seemed that he wanted to use this large wooden shield to block the lead bullets.
shooting!
But this is simply wishful thinking! The officers of the Wu'an Army were well prepared for this situation and did not take this tactic seriously at all! The wooden shield is very big and can block lead bullets. But can it block artillery shells? You are a cavalryman.
The goal itself is big, and if you hold up such a big wooden shield, are you afraid that I can't see you?
So before the cavalry approached, the artillery fired first! Moreover, Liu Haojia concentrated most of the artillery on the front. Now there are 50 artillery pieces on the north wall of the village divided into two groups to fire in turns. Where can the cavalry charge?
Come here!
The cannonball hit the wooden shield, and the wooden shield instantly shattered. The lucky cavalryman was directly pierced through the chest by the artillery, and was killed directly! The unlucky cavalryman had his arms broken, and was pricked all over by flying wooden thorns.
They were injured and fell to the ground wailing! So these three rows of cavalry holding giant shields were beaten to pieces without even playing any role!
The cavalry in the back row were too superstitious about giant shields, so they followed closely! This fully unleashed the lethality of solid artillery shells! Basically, each shell can take away at least two people's lives! Even after landing, one person will be taken away.
Two horse legs! It can be said that these Mongolian cavalry suffered heavy losses!
Especially after the musketry soldiers started shooting, rows of lead bullets knocked down the cavalrymen and horses! Some of the cavalrymen actually blocked the lead bullets with wooden shields, but they also shook half of their arms.
I felt numb! Immediately, I was killed by the second lead bullet! I was even more unlucky that I couldn't sit still, and I was knocked off my horse by the impact of the lead bullet and died without a burial place!
But since it was still dark at this time, the artillery could only fire when the Mongolian cavalry appeared under the light of the fire, so the shooting distance was relatively short. This gave them a chance to rush over! But just as the Mongolian cavalry had already
As they approached the wall, some people threw their flying weapons at the wall. When someone rushed towards the baggage vehicles, those artillery carriages disguised as baggage vehicles finally showed their power!
The artilleryman who had been waiting impatiently reached out and pushed open the gun window. The other two soldiers worked together to push the artillery, extended the muzzle and fixed the artillery on the cart. Then the gunner lit the fuse of the artillery!
These artillery pieces are filled with shotgun shells. Once fired, a barrage will form within 50 steps and sweep across, pulverizing all the cavalrymen and horses at the front of the battlefield!
But this is not the end! There are five blunderbuss in the Fo Lang machine gun! An artilleryman twisted and pulled, and the empty blunderbuss was pulled out! The artilleryman who had been prepared nearby filled the next blunderbuss.
Once loaded, another person inserts the fuse and prepares to shoot!
The smooth movements of the artillerymen took less than three seconds, but this was enough for the Mongolian cavalry to approach the place where corpses were scattered in front again! As a result, before they could break out of the range of the last cavalry casualty, the second round of artillery started again
Got it!
In this way, the fast-loading Folang machine gun just fired like a round of fire. The entire wall of the village was filled with the sound of artillery fire! The dense lead bullets swept across the battlefield over and over again, killing those who were rushing at the front.
The Mongolian cavalry were defeated one after another, and instantly the front of the formation turned into a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood!
Seeing this scene, the three gunmen didn't care about anything else and shouted almost at the same time: "Retreat! Retreat! Get back quickly!"
But without them saying hello, the Mongolian cavalry in the van had already retreated! They had been frightened to death by the dense artillery fire in front of them! And when they turned around and ran back, the Wu'an Army chased and fired three rounds of muskets and a gun.
Round of bombardment!
When the sound of gunfire and artillery stopped, there was no moving Mongolian on the battlefield except the groaning wounded!
When the men and horses withdrew, Hutch and the other three were so distressed that they almost cried! At a glance, Hutch's loss alone was close to 300 men. Hesitating Hutch's troops were in the center, right in front of them.
Artillery is the focus of care, so he has the highest number of casualties in the tribe!
Moreover, many of the people who escaped back were injured, many of them were even seriously injured, and they just came back with a breath! Hutch saw a cavalryman holding his stomach and fell from his horse, unable to catch his breath.
Dead!
After the cavalry fell off his horse, he seemed to have set an example. Many people fell off their horses one after another! Although some people went to rescue them and help bandage their wounds, people kept dying!
The three of Hutch felt miserable when they looked at these cavalry! They knew that although these people could not die now, they would not be able to escape death when they returned to the tribe! Even if they were lucky enough to survive, they would probably be ruined! There was no mutton this time.
I ate it, but it made me a mess! More than 30% of the tribal elites were wasted here!
As for Ansge's tribe, which is much smaller than Hutch's tribe, this loss made them even more distressed! Bahunai simply made up his mind and said loudly: "We can't fight any more! If we continue to fight, we will
Even if all the men in the tribe are filled in, they still can't break through the Ming army's camp. This Ming army is too evil!"
Hutch looked at Ansge, and when he saw that he nodded in agreement, he ordered a retreat. And as expected, these Mongolian cavalry came and went like the wind. They hurriedly checked all the wounded, and directly stabbed the seriously injured, and then tied the dead bodies together with the wounded.
Immediately, take advantage of the darkness before dawn to quickly retreat to the north.
At this time, the soldiers of the Wu'an Army in the camp were cheering loudly to vent their pride and fear! Especially the artillerymen received special care from the infantry! They patted their heads, beat their backs, and punched them in the chest! They used that rough
The way he expressed his love for the artillerymen made the artillerymen scream, but there was pride in their screams!
The soldiers were laughing and laughing for a moment before they were interrupted by the officers. The officers instructed them to adjust their weapons and repair the village walls. Then they sent people outside to cut off the heads and kill the horses. They were very busy.
