Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty
Seven hundred and seventieth eighth chapter Wuding River battle (3)
The melody of silk and bamboo and the sound of golden drums in "Order of the General" were played vigorously among the gunpowder smoke, and the sound of the roaring guns was like lightning and thunder on a sunny day, and the earth trembled.
People are awed by the wrath of a god. On the eastern battlefield, many soldiers of the Allied Forces looked up at the sky, but they saw the chaos all over the mountains and plains in the north.
Xu Jun's infantry was also mobilizing according to the military order, the nearby trumpets seemed to be urging, rows of two-color pennants were waving, and the air was noisy and dirty.
Yao Erniu and other soldiers can also understand the flag, but they don't need to pay attention to the military order, they just need to obey the shouts of the top ten generals and follow the troops of Bendu. The queue was slowly advancing in a horizontal line, and Yao Erniu carried the iron pipe firearm and followed the people on the left and right.
The sword-shield heavy infantry and the god-armed men and horses turned around and retreated in a column. Many of those brothers were covered in blood, and the stench wafted from between the lines, Yao Erniu was even more nervous. He is now in the first row, although he is an elite soldier who has fought many battles, he still can't feel relaxed in this kind of battle with mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
After a while, I ran into a crowd of enemy soldiers who had retreated after the pursuit, and the troops spread across the entire hillside. In fact, the frequent roar of the cannon has already made the infantry in the east seem very hesitant to attack, and the speed of coming up has obviously slowed down.
"Get ready!" Yao Erniu was startled by a loud hiss. The brothers on the left and right knelt down on one knee, and Yao Erniu quickly knelt on one knee to make his body shorter, and without thinking about it, he blew on the fire rope to sparks, opened the lid of the priming pot, and skillfully raised the firearm horizontally.
The turbulent crowd of the coalition army was only twenty or thirty steps away. Yao Erniu could clearly hear their fearful and angry shouts, and could clearly see their eyes, their faces covered with dirt and dust, and even the ragged armor with uneven armor. A large number of faces appeared in front of them, no one knew anyone, and there was no hatred, but this is the evil part of the battle formation. Those people who have no grievances and no hatred are holding weapons and shouting that they want to smash themselves into ashes! Yao Erniu believed that when they rushed in front of them, they would definitely want to chop themselves into minced meat without hesitation!
From somewhere, someone shouted: "The official family treats the brothers with food and clothing, and is serving the emperor's favor today!"
Yao Erniu had listened to these morale-boosting words a lot, but he didn't really care much about them, because it had nothing to do with the fact that he might be injured by knives and arrows at any time, and the arrows on his head were still jingling like raindrops!
However, the generous words, coupled with the shouts of the army resounding through the valley, really made people's blood surging, Yao Erniu also felt the atmosphere of courage and unity of all people, and now he actually has no fear.
The first crane flag was raised, "Bang!" The gong sounded. Yao Erniu heard "cracking..." above his head, and the dense infantry approaching in front screamed, but the lead bullets were invisible, only blood spattered on the bodies of those people, and weapons were thrown everywhere.
As soon as the salvo rang out, about the timing of a marching drum, Yao Erniu pulled the copper mechanism on the firearm, and the entire row of firearms sounded at this moment. While pulling the trigger, he turned his head to the left, closed his eyes, and the sound of gunpowder exploded from outside the leather earmuffs.
After the sound was over, gunpowder smoke filled the front of the eyes, and for a while, the scene in front of them was completely invisible, only the hissing and lung-piercing screams of pain were heard.
Dutou's shout sounded at the right time, Yao Erniu and the others quickly stood up, turned around and followed the man surnamed Zhang in the second row. Soon the oncoming men brushed Yao Erniu's shoulders and passed by.
The ten generals shouted: "Okay!" Yao Erniu stopped quickly, pulled out a wooden stick wrapped with cloth strips, and nimbly poked it into the barrel of the gun to clean the dregs inside, and then blew violently on the ignition pot a few times.
The cannons at the back roared like thunder, the front crackled with gunpowder smoke, arrows flew overhead, and the sound of shouting and killing rang out. But Yao Erniu didn't care, his eyes were only on the miscellaneous things at hand, his hands and feet must be fast, otherwise when others are busy and want to move forward, it will be like walking forward with a fire stick.
He bit open the straw paper-wrapped stopper on the bamboo tube with his teeth, poured black grains the size of corn into the gun barrel held between his legs, then pulled out the wooden stick, poked it in with the smooth end, and tried to compact it gently; then he took out a lead pellet tightly wrapped in linen with slippery tung oil on it from his leather pocket at his waist, stuffed it into the mouth of the barrel immediately, and poked it hard with the wooden stick. Now the iron pipe is much smaller than the copper blunderbuss cast in the past, and the lead shot is plugged in very tightly.
Then you need to add the medicine, cover the medicine pot, check the matchlock, etc... This job seems very trivial and troublesome, but Yao Erniu is more willing to go into battle like this! Although it is very troublesome, it is not very laborious; I heard that it is possible to blow up the chamber and injure yourself, but these iron pipes are numbered. If the specified number of uses is less than the explosion, the soldiers and craftsmen who are injured will be punished! The possibility of encountering such a mess is much smaller than rushing up and being hacked to death, so I am not afraid at all. Otherwise, rush up with a knife and gun and fight desperately... All the soldiers of the Forbidden Army who have experienced it will understand!
Yao Erniu was busy busy with his head depressed, completely unaware of what happened just now. When I looked up, I saw all the troops of the coalition forces in the battle formation in front of them fleeing down the hillside. The infantry formation was already dense, and it was chaotic for a while, and many people were trampled on and screamed loudly.
Hundreds of feet away from the hillside, a large formation of tens of thousands of coalition infantry stood still, while the chaotic soldiers in front were rushing towards the phalanx on the large formation.
Yao Erniu looked around in a daze, only to see that the battle lines on the entire hillside were in disarray, and all the infantry of the party members were fleeing in rout! The crowd rushed down the hillside in a mess like a mountain torrent!
Yao Erniu, Zhao Dagen and other soldiers beside him were all in a daze, watching this sudden grand scene.
... At this moment, the cannons on the western artillery formation roared, deafening, and some of the muzzles were already aimed at the coalition infantry formation down the hillside! The iron balls flew horizontally into the infantry formation below the hillside!
Whether it is the army of the Central Plains or any tribe, as long as it is infantry, the formation must be very dense! Because from the point of view of individual tactics, it is almost certain for two people to kill one person; then the denser the formation, the more they fight and the less locally. There was no infantry army in battle, as sparse as the cavalry.
The flying iron lump flew over the heads of a group of people, the height became lower and lower, "Bang!" A head exploded immediately! The head with bones and blood was thrown back suddenly, the neck snapped, and the iron ball continued to fly into the crowd. "Bang!" There was another terrifying impact, and another soldier's chest was hit with a faint cracking sound of ribs, and his body fell backwards. The direction of the iron ball hitting the torso was greatly deflected, and the speed slowed down a lot, but it still injured several people. Horrified screams came from the crowd, and the atmosphere of fear spread like a plague.
After a while, another iron ball landed in front of a group of people, and with a "bang", sand splashed everywhere, and the iron ball immediately bounced up and flew straight into the crowd.
As the shelling continued, the riot continued to spread, and the formation of tens of thousands of people was faintly turbulent. And the crowd that was suddenly defeated in front of them added signs of defeat and despair!
On the hillside, the sound of leather drums sounded from the entire front. Xu Jun's infantry lined up neatly, and the ten generals led each team from the left side. On the loess hillside, teams of people rushed down one after another like weapons.
Xu Jun's infantry has been disciplined, the battle formation is skillful and orderly, the column advances very fast, and the formation of a horizontal team dozens of steps away is also very quick. On the entire hillside, the movement of people and horses varies from city to city. When horizontal formations formed one after another, it seemed that the whole crowd was winding like a whirlpool, with countless iron helmets surging. But every capital, every team, and people without fire were mobilized according to the general's military orders, and the details were very orderly. Arrows from the allied forces kept flying over their heads, and from time to time, the joints of Xu Jun's armor were pierced and injured, but the rain of arrows did not affect the battle formation at all.
The coalition army broke into a large formation of tens of thousands of people in a panic. They could not retreat from the gaps between the various formations, because the artillery disrupted a large number of camps, and the scattered people made the battalions in front of them chaotic.
"Bang bang bang..." The salvo of firearms sounded one after another on the front from south to north. Invisible lead pills penetrated people's bodies nearby, and the screams and cries of despair and fear were like howling ghosts and gods. Blood mist and gunpowder smoke filled the battlefield together.
Xu Jun's firearms and horse establishment adapted to the change in tactics. There were about 200 people in a capital, and 600 people in a command. There are six teams of soldiers in one capital. One salvo is actually two volleys. One team kneels alone in front of one another, and the other team stands... Each of them has a reincarnation, that is, six volleys. The distance is only twenty or thirty steps away, and the attack is still shrinking!
In the atmosphere of defeat, the Dangxiangren and Xiren infantry could not bear the large number of casualties caused by this intensity of firepower! The army has already collapsed, but the dense infantry formation is chaotic, and it is difficult for people in the middle to escape... There are people in all directions, front, back, left, and right, and they can only squeeze back desperately. The scene is unbearable to look at, like a riot in a downtown.
The team of Xu Jun held simple matchlock guns and pointed at the panicked crowd. It was a massacre! Seeing that they couldn't run away, a few scattered men in front rushed over with their iron knives hissing and screaming.
"Thunderbolt, bang, bang..." A whole row of white smoke rose up, and the flames flickered. The men twitched like they were going epileptic, their chests were splashed with blood, they fell to their knees and fell forward, their weapons fell to the ground and stuck in the loess.
In front of the crowd, corpses have piled up! Dark red blood flowed along the sand. In the entire Shura field, it was useless to cry for father and mother, or heaven. The wounded soldier was covered in blood, and his voice was hoarse, but no one paid attention to it, because everyone was shouting.
If this is the world, then the world must be another hell!
