Daming pirates

Chen Wencan thought that the more than a thousand troops he led directly under him were considered elite, and there were also two hundred soldiers among them. They were definitely good warriors. However, after he saw the sea wolf's array, he had a feeling

Serious frustration.

Although the strength of the Sea Wolves is not very large, with only more than a thousand and less than two thousand men, the strength of both sides is about four to one, but after these Sea Wolves' troops lined up, they created an irresistible pressure.

.

These more than a thousand Sea Wolf tribe members were all dressed in uniform indigo uniforms, with a belt tied around their waists, and a leather bag on the left and right sides. It can be guessed that the ammunition may be contained inside, and most of them were human.

Wearing a leather armor.

This kind of leather armor is very simple in style. It does not cover the whole body, but only covers the torso part of the human body, like a vest, but there is a neck guard that stands up at the neck, and the limbs of the body are not covered with armor, which saves a lot of money.

Materials and workmanship.

Most of these Sea Wolf tribesmen held a musket, and some of the soldiers held four-meter-long spears. They all carried them on their shoulders when they left the camp. The queue was extremely neat and uniform.

After that, with an order, everyone's spears and muskets were lowered and stood beside their right legs.

The entire formation of waves, horizontally and vertically, is as neat as cut tofu cubes, arranged in horizontal rows and vertical columns. From any angle, it looks so neat.

Chen Wencan also thought that he knew soldiers well and was good at commanding and training troops. However, after seeing the sea wolf array, he couldn't help but sigh. Compared with the soldiers he brought with him, who he thought were elite soldiers, the official army

The queue cannot be viewed at all.

Not to mention that the mandarin duck jackets they wore were all shabby. Some people's clothes were torn and had holes everywhere. It was obvious that they had not been changed for many years. Let's just talk about the spirit of the soldiers. In comparison,

It's hard to see the officers and soldiers. Most of the officers and soldiers are sallow and thin. After putting on these military uniforms, you can still tell that they are soldiers, but after taking off these clothes, it is not too much to say that they are beggars.

As for weapons, not to mention, the weapons equipped by the officers and soldiers are obviously much more complicated than those equipped by the Sea Wolf tribe. There are spears, knives, three-eyed blunderbuss, bird blunderbuss, and even

There are also weapons such as hooks and forks, and their arrangement is also very messy.

These officers and soldiers did not come from the same place. They were each led by their own generals. Although they were arrayed in formation, they were all in separate groups and could not be compared with Sea Wolf's generals.

At a glance, the soldiers of the Sea Wolf have rosy complexions and have obviously eaten well, which is why they look so strong. Each one of them has a shy chest and belly. No matter where they stand, they have a feeling of being as still as a mountain.

What moved Chen Wencan even more was that all the faces of these Sea Wolf tribesmen were cold and expressionless. Although they had different looks, they gave people a feeling as if they were cast from the same mold, invisibly exuding.

There was a murderous aura.

As someone who has been in charge of the army for many years, Chen Wencan immediately saw that these Sea Wolf tribe members had not only undergone rigorous training, but also many of them had participated in actual combat. They had seen people in the killing formation. Such soldiers were the most difficult.

When dealing with soldiers, once they go into battle, they will abandon all thoughts. Not only will the enemy's life be regarded as nothing, but their own life will also not be considered.

Although Chen Wencan has not yet seen the battle, Chen Wencan is already feeling a little weak. He knows that today has completely hit the iron wall. He can't figure out why this group of pirates can train such a troop. Such a troop.

, it can be said that this is the only powerful soldier he has ever seen in his life, and its elite level is even far superior to the two hundred soldiers he leads around him.

Chen Wencan couldn't help but start to feel a little panicked. Although he still had 6,000 officers and soldiers in his hands, he knew very well the strength of these officers and soldiers. This group of people had very little training. Although they were considered elite soldiers in Fujian, they had never seen anyone who fought in battle.

But there are not many. Except for some personal soldiers brought by each army general, less than 20% of the people can really be called fighting, and most of the rest are scum.

Can they still win this battle? At this time, all the officers and generals, including Chen Wencan, have become timid before fighting.

But the matter has come to this, and it can't be done without fighting. Now they have almost completely run out of food on hand. If they can't recapture this barracks today, then they will run out of food by night and are trapped on this Nanri Island. They are now

There is no way to heaven and no door to earth, the only way is to fight.

So Chen Wencan had to take a deep breath, force himself to suppress the uneasiness in his heart, lift the reins of the horse, let the horse go to the front of the queue, turned around and shouted loudly: "Brothers, listen up! Although the pirates are fierce,

But they are still thieves after all. Although our navy was defeated, we still have so many people, far more than their number. When it comes to marching and fighting, how can they be our opponents?

Today we must fight to drive them back to the sea and recapture the camp. Zhu Junmen will definitely mobilize the fleet as soon as possible to defeat this group of pirates and bring us back to the land!

The dead soldiers selected by each department last night are out! As long as you disrupt their formation, then I will lead my troops to press on and we will surely take back the camp!

As long as I get the camp back, I will never break my promise, and I will definitely be richly rewarded!"

As Chen Wencan's voice fell, all military generals immediately called out a group of dead soldiers who had been recruited from their respective subordinates last night and ordered them to line up in front of the army.

This time, all the military generals spent a lot of money to pick out the warriors they could pick out, and even some of their own soldiers were selected by them, in the hope that they could defeat the majority in this formation.

The camp was recaptured. At this point, they had no option of retreat. If they could not recapture the camp today, then they would surely annihilate the entire army here.

So no one dared to play tricks anymore and used all the strength they could.

In this way, they actually managed to gather six to seven hundred people. It can be said that these people were all officers and soldiers who had seen battles before, and they were considered fierce people. Although they did not come from the same army, as an assault force, once launched,

Seriously, it's quite powerful.

None of these people used firearms. Each of them wore a piece of cotton armor and held their best weapons. Some held shields, some held spears, some held long knives, and some even used large axes.

.

After these people came out, a Qian Zong immediately came out and personally led the team, placing the people with shields in front of the queue. The rest of the people did not line up carefully, but all fell behind the sword player. After lining up, it was quite a bit

A murderous feeling.

As the war drums sounded, these people began to move upon hearing the sound. They did not immediately run forward and charge forward. Instead, under the guidance of the sword player, they first slowly pushed towards the sea wolf formation.

Chen Wencan, on the other hand, led the rest of the officers and soldiers closely behind them, keeping a certain distance and being ready at any time. After these dead soldiers broke into the enemy's formation, they then pressed forward to cover them up and finally recaptured the camp in one fell swoop.

Looking at the actions of the officers and soldiers, Yu Xiaotian couldn't help but sneered while standing in the formation. The officers and soldiers' ideas were too childish. It was simply a joke to try to break through his army formation with such a method.

However, he did not interfere with Li Dazui's command and continued to quietly observe the situation on the battlefield.

Li Dazui turned to look at Yu Xiaotian, as if he was asking for Yu Xiaotian's opinion. However, seeing that Yu Xiaotian didn't express any opinion, he knew that Yu Xiaotian was asking him to take charge of the command, so he nodded and turned around.

Shout loudly: "Cannon ready!"

At this time, several twelve-pound mountain howitzers have been arranged on the left and rear of the Sea Wolf. These guns belong to the direct artillery at the battalion level and are mainly responsible for battlefield suppression. Because of their light weight, they can be used even if the animal power is insufficient.

Relying on manpower to guide the army to move together, it is very suitable for use as field artillery. Compared with the Folang machine and Tiger squat artillery commonly used by the Ming army, it is much more powerful and can completely suppress the firepower of the Ming army.

What's more, although today's Ming army seems to have a large number of people, due to lack of preparation, the main camp was captured and there are no cannons at all. Therefore, the Sea Wolf has an advantage across the board in terms of artillery.

The artillerymen had already prepared their cannons and were just waiting for the order. Eight twelve-pound cannons were lined up in a row and began to load the cannons under the command of their artillery company commander. Each one was solid.

The shells were loaded into the gun barrel, and after the gun barrel was lightly pounded a few times, someone used an awl to pierce the gun breech door into the gun barrel and poured in the primer.

"The target distance is calibrated three hundred steps...shoot quickly! Fire!" The artillery company commander looked excited, waving a small red flag in his hand, raised it high and gave the order loudly. When he heard that each gun had completed its aiming, he then raised his arms and shot towards

Wave in front.

I saw eight artillery pieces on the artillery position suddenly starting to emit flames from the muzzles from left to right. Then there was a series of gunshots, and the cannons also started to move violently and then sat some distance away.

Eight twelve-pounder cannon shells roared out of the gun barrel and flew straight towards the enemy who had advanced about 300 steps to the Sea Wolf formation.

There was a sound of gasping among the officers and soldiers, and some people even screamed. When they saw the Sea Wolf's cannon firing, they felt a heartache. Everyone knew that even if they were wearing armor,

No matter how sophisticated it is, when faced with such artillery shells, it is almost like paper, and you will die if you encounter it.

Several artillery shells landed accurately among the enemy group. After landing, the artillery shells were immediately bounced off the solid ground and continued to fly forward. Almost instantly, several bloody alleys were opened in the army array.

Suddenly, a cloud of blood mist arose, and the broken limbs and internal organs of the human body flew up in all directions.

There suddenly began to be a commotion among the officers and soldiers, and it seemed that they were in danger of collapse.

"Hold still! Those who run away from the battle will be killed! Those who stand still will be killed! Those who confuse the morale of the army will be killed!..." Chen Wencan used all his strength and shouted loudly.

Under the vigorous pressure of Chen Wencan and other generals, the turmoil among the officers and soldiers calmed down slightly. Regardless of the comrades who were wounded and killed by the shells, the army continued to advance forward.
