The remaining sixty or so people holding scimitars rushed out from the doors on both sides, jumped down from the roof, and pounced on a small group of green-skinned infantry.
Just now, some of these people got into the house and jumped out of the back window. Then they climbed onto the roof from the yard and climbed to the side and back of the team, preparing to jump from the roof for a sneak attack.
It's a pity that these routines were left over from the Tumote people. They did cause some damage to Yang Fan's Jingying camp and Jia Ding regiment. But soon Yang Fan had a way to solve it. He extended the experience to the entire infantry.
Army and cavalry army.
More than thirty people rushed up from the front, and half of them climbed out from the ridges on both sides, rushed down the slope, held their scimitars high, and jumped down howling. It looked very impressive.
Unfortunately, when they climbed up from the backyard to the house, the noise they made alerted the team below.
The team immediately changed their formation, and the five shields in front were arranged in an arc. They immediately put down the brackets. A half-meter-wide gap was exposed between the shields, and they were connected with barbed wire. In this way, the shields could stand on their own.
Hanging on the waist of each shield hand are two flintlock double-barreled handguns and a waist knife. Now the waist swords of Yang Fan's system have been replaced by the 6-type modern cavalry sword. This modern cavalry sword has good ergonomics.
And with hand guards, it can be used not only by cavalry, but also by infantry and infantry.
There were not enough of these weapons manufactured and the price was not cost-effective, so Yang Fan directly made a million of them. Among the hundreds of people in the territory, every strong man was given one. The remaining 500,000 were kept in stock so that if necessary, he could directly
Just send it and use it.
The industrial production capacity is very scary. As long as the mold is opened, it is not cost-effective to make less.
The steel blades of these knives are all made from the barrel steel of destroyed tanks that fools and liars abandoned in the wilderness of the Middle East and Africa. Many of them were purchased from abandoned weapons dumps in the former Soviet Union. These weapons
There had been no maintenance for thirty or forty years, and they had all been left out in the open to rust, and they had all become scrap metal.
It only costs a small amount of money to buy the whole ship at the price of scrap metal and send it to the Horn of Africa.
Yang Fan has stockpiled more than 500,000 tons of various special steel materials. The scrapped car shock absorbers collected from Mao Ziguo have more than 300,000 tons of spring steel plates. Whether they are used to make cold weapons or steel crossbows,
All very useful.
Moreover, with the large-scale use of refurbished rubber tires, bearings and bogies, there is also a large demand for spring steel plates for horse carriages to absorb shock. At present, Yang Fan's steel plant cannot produce this kind of spring steel and can only rely on the acquisition of modern
Scrap steel.
Zuo Zongtang regained Xinjiang. The reason why he could bring 80,000 modern troops was equipped with a large number of breech-loaded Gatling field guns and cart-loaded Gatling machine guns. The scale was much larger than that of the Western Regions during the Han and Tang Dynasties. The Anxi Army of the Tang Dynasty could only maintain two
The scale of 5,000 people is mainly due to the fact that the internal logistics supply has reached its limit.
The main reason why Zuo Zongtang was able to support such a large-scale army was that the end of the 19th century was already an era of mass production of bearings, rubber tires, bogies, etc. The carriage changed into a four-wheel carriage, and the load capacity increased several times.
They immediately opened fire from the firing ports of their shields. The shields blocked the arrows, making a jingling sound.
Then, bang bang bang! The handgun fired. Ten buckshot bullets directly hit seven people. The distance was too close to miss, and some people were still hit by two bullets. Basically, there were no hits.
The five men quickly shot out the five handguns and put the handguns back into the holsters on the right side of their thighs. With their left hands, they pulled out a second double-barreled flintlock gun. Then there was another bang, bang, bang! A burst of shooting.
A gun is faster than a knife five meters away, but a gun is faster and more accurate within five meters.
Twenty rounds of lead bullets were fired in a short period of time, knocking down 15 of the more than 30 people in front. The remaining 17 or 18 people were so frightened that their legs were weak. These green-skinned firearms were too sharp. This was still a fight.
He lost less than half of his troops.
The remaining people immediately howled and charged forward with sabers raised.
At the same time, the five soldiers behind immediately stood in two rows back to back, raising their guns and pointing them at the roofs on both sides.
At this time, more than a dozen people on each side jumped out from the ridge line, half of them ran down the slope like crazy, and rushed down while holding their scimitars high and yelling strangely.
They planned to use their potential energy and height to jump up, jump into the queue of these greenskins, mix with them, and then fight hand to hand. They were confident that they could not use close-range firearms, and their fighting skills could completely defeat these Akito.
Unfortunately, as soon as they climbed out of the ridgeline, two rows of back-to-back musketeers opened fire on the street below. These soldiers were regular soldiers, not ragtag, stepmothers like the pirate regiment. Each of them had fought at least one
Three thousand rounds of lead bullets. Extremely accurate marksmanship.
Bang bang bang! Gunshots sounded like exploding beans.
Compared with the matchlock gun, the advantage of the flintlock gun is that it fires very quickly. As long as the trigger is pulled, it can fire immediately.
The Heshuote people in the rooms on both sides were shot one after another. They rolled down with a grunt and fell to the ground.
Seven or eight people who were not hit by the rifles rushed to the eaves smoothly, and then jumped up due to the impact and threw themselves at the team.
These soldiers quickly raised their bayonets, and the bright bayonets dazzled their eyes in the sunlight below, making these people scream in fright. But there was no way to avoid the people in mid-air.
Amid screams, they were stabbed with bayonets one after another.
The sound of the bayonet penetrating into flesh made a muffled sound.
Only two people jumped into the queue and knocked down two soldiers. The two soldiers were wearing stab-proof uniforms with steel plates inserted inside. Their scimitars were powerful and heavy, and they jumped from a high place, directly hitting their shoulders.
The steel plates at the base were bent and the two soldiers suffered broken shoulders and fell to the ground screaming.
Immediately, seven or eight bayonets were stabbed from all sides, and the two men were stabbed into a sieve.
After clearing these people, the team immediately picked up bayonets and rushed forward. At this time, the shield soldiers were using the barbed wire temporarily hung between the shields to fight with the dozen Heshuotes in front.
The tail of the handle of Yang Fan's Type 65 cavalry sword has also been improved, that is, the horse stick can be inserted into it to make a simple sword. Because in the northwest battle, the horse stick is a commonly used equipment, and long weapons are sometimes needed.
In this way, when the horse stick is inserted into the handle of the saber, it will become a plain knife with a length of 1.8 meters.
The saber is long and slender. This simple sword can be used as a short spear or for chopping. After all, the steel mouth is very good.
At this time, the shield soldiers had used up all their bullets and were slashing with the Mongols across their shields with their simple knives.
The Hoshuote people are taller, and their arms are longer, but with the scimitar, the sword is not as long as the 65-style horse-turned-sword that is slightly scimitar. It is more than thirty centimeters shorter.
Seeing that the jumpers had been dealt with, the Heshuote people in front were shocked. They immediately turned around and ran away, not daring to fight these greenskins any more.
