The 800 cavalrymen who charged in the front row fired all the three-eyed muskets in their hands, and fired 2,400 rounds of lead bullets.
Although Jiannu's cavalry were all wearing triple armor, at a distance of ten meters, which was the maximum power of the portal gun, a large number of people were penetrated by the armor, and more than 300 people fell down and fell off their horses.
Obai was shocked. In his memory, the Three-Eyed Gun has always been an object of contempt. No one with any ability would become a musketeer.
The first-class people made the white-toothed cavalry, the second-class people made the red-toothed cavalry. The third-class people made the infantry. Only those who can't ride horses, shoot arrows well, or use them well can't do it.
Swords and guns are only used by useless people.
Firearms soldiers have a higher status than slave soldiers. They are usually men under the banner of the Han army. The Manchus disdain them.
Moreover, the three-eye gun is poorly made, and the barrel has many bubbles and cracks. If there is too little charge, it will not be able to shoot far. If there is too much charge, the barrel will explode.
The most damning thing is that the quality of the three barrels is different. You have to remember how much gunpowder each is safe to carry. If you are in a hurry, it’s better to have less. If you have more, bang, the three-eyed blunderbuss will become a two-eyed blunderbuss.
If you don't tell me, I'll make your face full of peach blossoms.
He has seen many one-eyed heroes, and this thing is what created them.
However, none of the three-eyed blunderbuss taught by Zhao has an explosive chamber, and the barrel of the blunderbuss is not four inches, but more than seven inches. The shape is not straight either. There is a spherical medicine chamber at the end. It is obvious that the blunderbuss tube is strong and not
Can be loaded with more gunpowder.
What Obai couldn't see was that the lead bullets of about 15 mm that Zhao led taught were filled with Su Gang fragments. This greatly increased the lethality and penetration.
Usually, Ming Army musketeers, not to mention vests, even when shooting infantry, cannot penetrate triple armor.
In the past battles with Jiannu, the Ming army used three-eyed gunmen to form a formation and hide behind the shield soldiers. They used antlers and horse guns in front to hinder the cavalry attack.
Usually at this time, the elite infantry soldiers of the Eight Banners would wear triple armor and attack. The crude three-eyed blunderbuss and bird blunderbuss made by the Ministry of Works could not penetrate the triple armor.
The infantry rushed forward, a spearman thrust forward to cover it, and two swordsmen forced half-open antlers and carbine rifles. As soon as these barriers were removed, the cavalry immediately returned to kill them.
Wherever the Ming army's swordsmen and fire gunmen could defeat these elite soldiers, they would be killed in an instant. The remaining ones fled in all directions.
Then the Ming army's array collapsed, and the men and horses trampled on each other in fear, scrambling for their lives, and turned into a one-sided pursuit mode.
This time, the four thousand cavalry formed a sharp formation, and the eight hundred men on the outside opened fire with 2,400 lead bullets, killing more than three hundred of this Jia La's men.
This kind of steel-core bullet, similar to Yang Fan, penetrated the triple armor and the horse's torso at close range without any hindrance.
This is a very big loss.
Obai's eyes were red with anger. He had suffered such a big loss just after he was promoted. What did Huang Taiji think?
His left calf was also hit by a lead bullet. He gritted his teeth and endured the severe pain, grabbed the mace and smashed it head-on into a small Ming army flag.
Xiao Qi tried to block with his long knife. But he underestimated Obai's physical strength. A mace weighing more than ten kilograms whizzed towards him, leaving an afterimage in the air.
The long knife flew away with a bang. With a bang, the eight-petal iron helmet was smashed, and the head was like a rotten watermelon, red and white flying everywhere.
Obai roared angrily and waved left and right, knocking two passing cavalrymen off their horses and being trampled to death by the cavalrymen behind him.
For a moment, this giant man riding a tall horse looked majestic, rushing into the Ming army array like a sharp knife.
Zhao led the army without even looking at Obai. He was as stone-hearted and asked the soldiers behind him to wave the red flag and immediately change their formation.
After finishing shooting the three-eyed gun, the cavalry slowed down their horses, lifted the end of the long pole of the three-eyed gun, and used the three-eyed gun as a heavy weapon. They swung it and hit the cavalrymen on the four sides of the Yalu River.
Under heavy weapons, armor is completely useless. Under such impact, bones and tendons will be broken. The same is true in reality. A stab with a knife will not necessarily kill you, but there is still a chance of rescue. A hammer will kill you.
If you don't hit the vital points, you will break the bones directly and lose your combat effectiveness.
But not everyone can use heavy weapons. If you want to use heavy weapons with power, the key lies in the speed of transportation.
No speed, no damage.
Zhao's soldiers and horses can swing a three-eyed gun weighing more than ten kilograms. Their three-eyed gun barrel has three distinctive rings on the outside. It has a one-inch triangular pyramid protrusion, which is used for smashing.
Increase power.
Zhao Shujiao was actually the former local emperor of the garrison. He controlled 100,000 people. They farmed and herded the 4,000 private soldiers who were raised by him. These cavalry were well fed and rigorously trained. Although they were not as skilled as slaves with bows and horses.
But his physical fitness is very good.
It can be seen from the Baigan soldiers and Qi's army in the Battle of Hunhe that they were well trained, had enough to eat, and were paid on time. They were not afraid of the Manchus at all and could achieve a casualty ratio of one to one or even one to two.
The outer layer slows down and the inner layer is revealed like a blade out of the body.
Bang bang bang! Another burst of three-eyed blunderbuss. Jian Nu did not show any weakness, grabbed a big bow and shot it in the face. Both sides fell off their horses one after another and were trampled to pieces.
Zhao Lijiao was also hit by an arrow in his left shoulder. The huge shovel arrow hit the copper beast swallow on his shoulder. The beast swallow was shot away and a large piece of shoulder flesh was shaved off.
The excruciating pain made Zhao Shujiao's vision go dark, and he almost let go of the sword.
His horse weapon is similar to the Dao Dao of the Song Dynasty.
The Bo Dao is a weapon that appeared in the Song Dynasty. Some scholars believe that it is an inherited variant of the Tang Mod Dao.
It is a long-handled sword with blades on both sides. The blade is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. It has a wooden pole and an iron spear at the end. It is one of the weapons commonly used by the Song army. Its shape is similar to Erlang Shen's three-pointed two-edged sword.
This thing is said to be a knife, but it is actually a heavy armor-breaking weapon. With both hands dancing, it can slash, stab, slash and kill hooks and belts. It is very useful against heavy armored cavalry. It was still used until the end of the Qing Dynasty.
Fifty-four horse-equipped soldiers formed an arrow in front, Zhao led the army behind, and there were thirty people in horse-mounted soldiers on each side. They guarded the left and right wings and the rear. Sixteen horse-mounted cavalry surrounded them.
With Zhao leading the teaching in the center.
These two hundred elite soldiers were his servants. Among the sixteen men, there were four flag bearers who were responsible for issuing orders according to his instructions.
Zhao Lijiao saw that Ao Bai under the Zhenghuang Banner was invincible and had no enemy. However, he headed straight for Huang Taiji with firm eyes, not entangled with Jia La in the Yalu River at all.
Another round of life-for-life, bombardment with three-eyed muskets, and Jiannu's bows and arrows hitting his face. The soldiers and horses led by Zhao stood out layer by layer, and then fired the muskets.
Finally the sight was empty, and the Jia La was penetrated.
Zhao Shujiao glanced at the yellow umbrella cover in front of him and the fat man underneath, Huang Taiji, who was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe.
"Brothers, it's time to make great achievements right now. Kill the enemy chieftain and get a reward of ten thousand taels of silver."
Zhao led the teaching again and did not deceive the soldiers. The rewards he said before were basically fulfilled. The 10,000 taels of silver immediately made the cavalry blush. They screamed in excitement. Their morale suddenly rose. They all rushed towards Huang Taiji.
