The Rise of the European Emperor
Chapter 1339 Reinforcements are coming!
? However, the group of juvenile marksmen didn't seem to want to let go of these unfortunate bastards lying on the ground in fright. After all, they were ordered to "kill this group of artillery".
However, the other party is lying on the ground, and it is really difficult to hit the flat shot. So they had to send someone back to ask for "tactical guidance."
After Marin looked through the telescope, he gave instructions——
"Let the marksmen stand on the wheelbarrow and shoot down the artillerymen lying on the ground!"
Standing at a high place, Marin could easily see the bodies of the surviving enemy artillerymen lying on the ground. Stand the plaintiff, see the larger the area.
Of course, Marin now has no conditions to let those juvenile marksmen stand on the arrow tower and shoot. Exactly, now there is a row of Yu Dayou unicycles in front of the battle. Standing on it, the viewing angle is much better than standing on the ground.
After receiving the "tactical guidance", Hank immediately arranged for the young marksmen to climb on Yu Dayou's unicycle and aim at a high place. On the side, there were infantry soldiers who helped them hold the chariot and help the teenagers stabilize their bodies.
"Bang-bang-bang-" After a round of shooting, the teenagers standing on the wheelbarrow were recoiled and unable to stand still. Fortunately, there were strong adult infantrymen beside the car to help him, so he didn't let him fall.
On the opposite side, of the thirty or forty artillerymen who survived, another ten or so were shot...
In fact, the juvenile marksmen could have shot more people. After all, standing on a unicycle, the viewing angle is much better.
But the problem is, for the enemy artillerymen lying there, these inexperienced teenagers can't judge which one was shot down and which one was hiding there...
But it doesn't matter, shoot a few more rounds...
After a few rounds, there were only five or six remaining coalition artillerymen who were really still alive. They didn't even dare to lie down on the artillery position, but retreated to the infantry crowd to flee for their lives...
Good-faced Brunswick—Henry, Duke of Wolfenbüttel, was so angry that he wanted to execute the fleeing artillerymen, but was stopped by Charles, Earl of Geldon—
"Lord Duke, if we kill them, none of us will know how to operate artillery!"
"But they can't fire the gun now!"
"Leave them, at least, let them teach a new batch of gunners!" Count Charles sighed.
Some of the artillerymen who died just now were artillerymen from the Earl of Galden.
...
And after clearing the artillery on the opposite side, the group of young marksmen also planned to call it quits and withdraw...
It’s not that they don’t want to continue fighting, but because—their steel core single-headed bullets they brought this time are running out…
Originally, Marin didn't plan to let these teenagers carry the banner immediately this time, but planned to bring them to feel the atmosphere of the battlefield. Therefore, Marin was not well prepared this time. Each teenager only brought a dozen rounds of steel core single-headed bullets, which were carefully packed in wooden boxes.
After clearing the enemy's artillery, these teenagers ran out of bullets and had to retreat. Moreover, Marin only asked them to clear the artillery on the opposite side, and did not ask them to be responsible for other things.
But before leaving, Hank was unwilling to do so. As it happened, he found that several people had a bullet or two left. So he ordered:
"You guys, go to the right wing and kill the commander of the musketeers on the opposite side!"
The ancients were not smart, and the ammunition loading steps of the front-loading gun were numerous. Many people usually remember it quite well, but when they go to the battlefield, because they are nervous, they suddenly forget the steps.
Therefore, in the era of queuing to be shot, each platoon of musketeers would have a commander, shouting passwords, instructing the musketeers to load ammunition, lest those recruits forget what to do because of their nervousness.
This is necessary, and without this guidance, recruits may be confused. For example, during the Civil War, there were some recruits who forgot to put gunpowder in the barrel of the gun and pressed lead directly into it. Then, pull the trigger - naturally no response...
The most exaggerated one was a certain recruit who stuffed more than 20 lead bullets into the barrel of the gun. But because there is no gunpowder, naturally it can't be fired. Then, the recruit died... This rifle, stuffed with lead but without powder, was found on a corpse...
Therefore, musketeers on the battlefield often need commanders to shout passwords to instruct recruits how to reload. And this kind of officer who shouted the password later evolved into the platoon leader in the modern army... Because, these ancient platoon leaders, the task is to loudly instruct the recruits how to load the ammunition and instruct them to fire together... Because they are responsible for A platoon of musketeers, and then this kind of officer shouting passwords, evolved into the later platoon leader...
Of course, this kind of platoon leader shouting passwords to guide the loading is mainly aimed at recruit musketeers. Because recruits are most likely to forget steps on the battlefield because of nervousness and fear. As for the veteran musketeers, there is basically no need to remind. For example, the musketeers of the First Army and Second Army of Beihai Kingdom do not need to be reminded.
However, after entering the era of musket shooting, the loss of personnel was relatively large because the musketeers shot each other. Every time the war ended, a new batch of musketeers would be added to the army. Most of the people who come in are recruits, and the platoon leader needs to shout out loudly for guidance. Therefore, the platoon leader later became a permanent position...
...
The last few guys, who still had one or two steel core single-headed bullets, quietly passed through the artillery positions after the large troops withdrew, and came to the place where the muskets on the right flank were firing each other...
At this time, the musketeers on both sides were still separated by a distance of about a hundred yards from each other, shooting at each other to see who got the most...
And most of the musketeer commanders on both sides were still alive and kicking. After all, with this level of mutual shooting, only the unlucky will get shot...
But when these young sharpshooters came over, it would be different...
"Bang-bang-bang-" After a few shots were fired, there were a few less "heralds" shouting passwords (not the platoon leader at this time)...
Several "heralds" who shouted slogans died, and the loading level of the Musketeers in the Earl of Gelden immediately dropped sharply...
After all, it was the first time that these musketeers in the country of Geldon had applied muskets to actual combat, and they were inevitably very nervous.
Once there was no one to call the password commander, many musketeers were in a hurry. Just like I said before, some musketeers from the Earl of Geldon forgot to pour gunpowder, and directly wrapped the lead round in deerskin and stabbed it into the barrel of the gun. Then, it's stuck inside and can't be taken out...
With the increase of mistakes, plus the fact that it is no match for the opposite musketeer. After a period of time, the musketeers of the Earl of Gelden were completely suppressed by the musketeers of the opposite North Sea Kingdom...
...
Charlie, Earl of Geldon, looked--that's not going to work...
So, at his suggestion, the two Dukes of Henry ordered-the coalition forces made a charge, wanting to break through the North Sea ** team's position...
However, they underestimated the power of Yu Dayou's unicycle. After the coalition soldiers rushed up, they first loaded a row of unicycles with four spears in the front. They wanted to lift the chariot, but behind the Beihai Kingdom chariot stood a spearman.
If the coalition soldiers tried to push the spear in front of the chariot with their hands, they would immediately be stabbed by the North Sea country spearmen...
If you want a spear to push the unicycle away... I'm sorry, the two rear legs of the unicycle are inserted into the soil, forming a stable triangle with the unicycle. It seems a little difficult to move the unicycle...
In this way, in the head-to-head confrontation between the chariots, the allied forces of the eight kingdoms and princes did not take any advantage. After storming for a while, the Allied Forces of the Eight Kingdoms had to retreat.
However, in the previous battle, Charles, Earl of Geldon, overwhelmed the North Sea ** team - he sent a group of spearmen from the Earl of Geldon to rush to the North Sea State artillery position and directly put the spear in his hand. As a javelin, throwing and killing a group of Beihai artillery...
In this way, more than half of the artillery losses of Beihai State have seriously affected the firing of artillery...
...
However, just during the melee, the sound of "bang-bang-bang-" suddenly came from the southeast of the Eight Kingdoms Allied Forces...
Don't get me wrong, it wasn't the sound of a musket, but the sound of a three-shot cannon battle...
Marin had an ecstatic expression on his face when he saw the three-shot cannonball blasting off into the air. Because, these three gun battles are the signal bombs of the Beihai ** team. This shows that the reinforcements (the 3rd Corps and the Cossack cavalry) expected by Marin are coming...
