Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 563 The Mughal Empire Breaks Down Everyday (Please Subscribe!)

However, nearly one-third of the Agra archers had fallen at this time.

If they were not the Mughal "Beijing camp", such casualties would have gone away long ago!

They could shoot a rain of arrows, but now the arrows they shoot are sparse, without the momentum and deterrence they had before.

What's more terrible is that at the moment when they were shooting arrows, they fell a lot of people.

It took some time for their arrows to fall into the Ming army, but what made them collapse was that the Ming army did not fall too many people.

The guards wear steel helmets, and they also have arm guards and throat armor!
If the head is shot, the most concussion, such an injury, does not even need to go down to rest.

As for those shot in the body, if the torso was protected by a breastplate, only the lower body could be injured.

It's just an injury, not fatal.

"Artillery, increase your firepower."

The infantry battalion still thinks that their own firepower is not strong enough, because they want to quickly defeat the enemy's fighting spirit, so that the opponent has no chance to hurt them.

The artillerymen no longer considered saving ammunition when they heard the words, and directly opened fire.

More Mughal soldiers fell, and finally, the archers collapsed and chose to turn and run away.

Some people even throw away their bows, arrows and armor, for fear of affecting their escape speed.

They turned and fled, and directly collided with the Agra infantry who were still advancing, and many of them wrestled and cursed at each other.

"Run away, we are not their opponents."

Some deserters would kindly give these infantry some reminders, but these infantry from the Mughal imperial capital didn't take it seriously.

These infantrymen envy, envy, and despise these archers.

Because the treatment of archers is very good, and when fighting, they only need to shoot the bows and arrows to retreat to the rear, and their sword and shield soldiers are responsible for the bloody hand-to-hand combat.

Therefore, they envy and envy the treatment of the archers, and look down on the attributes of the archers who are afraid of death and cannot fight tough battles.

Most of the sword and shield soldiers did not listen to the words of the archers and chose to continue charging.

However, their end was much more miserable than that of the archers.

At any rate, the archers still have the power to fight back, and they are moving targets one by one.

There are stray bullets everywhere on the battlefield, and the dead don't know how they died.

After rushing for a certain distance, they realized that something was wrong, and then their morale collapsed, and they turned and ran away.

Because the archers are far away from the Ming army, they can quickly escape the shooting range of the Ming army.

But these sword and shield soldiers, because they rushed too close, couldn't escape the range of the guards when they fled.

At this distance, even Japanese soldiers with flintlock guns can fire.

The bullets continued to pour on them, and they fell in a large number.

On the Ming's battlefield, these soldiers from Japan laughed wantonly.

The Japanese people are bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Anyway, they are very devoted to bullying the Mughal soldiers now.

Seeing that the enemy had completely collapsed and fled, they also chose to take the initiative to catch up, enjoying the thrill of chasing and killing defeated soldiers.

"I ordered the Dongpu people not to chase too deeply, don't act as if they have never won a battle."

Gao Meng complained, chasing too deep is easy to be surrounded.

He was holding the shotgun, an artifact of melee combat, and felt a little regretful. He had never fired it before, and I heard that it would be so cool to shoot it out!
After the order was issued, the Japanese soldiers who were chasing could only stop their pursuit regrettably, giving the defeated soldiers who fled in a hurry a way out.

In this battle between the forwards, the Mughal Empire suffered a lot every day.

After retreating to a safe place, Maratha from General Agra, the imperial capital, counted the losses and almost fainted on the spot.

The vanguard army of 1 people directly lost more than 6000 people in this short contact battle, including nearly [-] elite archers.

The cost of training archers is much higher than that of musketeers!

Most of these more than 6000 people were killed by the Ming army, and a small number became deserters in the chaos.

The battle damage was too great, far beyond Maratha's expectations.

"My lord, did you forget to tell us about the terror of the Ming army?"

Shaista Khan gave him a blank look: Ma De, can these arrogant soldiers and relatives from the imperial capital listen to his words?
Shaista Khan simply ordered Maratha to be arrested and executed in public.

Why kill him?

It's not that Shaista Khan is ignorant of the horror of the Ming army, and it's clearly not the fault of the war.

Because he wants to frighten the guys from the imperial capital here, be obedient, otherwise they won't know how to die.

Sure enough, after killing the chickens to warn the monkeys, everyone obeyed a lot.

After killing people, Shaista Khan began to study the next decisive battle with his subordinates.

Judging from the fighting situation of the forwards, the Mughal "Beijing Camp" obviously underestimated the firepower of the Ming army.

Now that the latest information has been obtained, it is natural to make corresponding adjustments.

"Everyone, I'm afraid this battle is not easy to fight. The key lies in how to get close to the enemy. As long as we can rush in front of the enemy and enter hand-to-hand combat, we can exert a huge advantage in numbers and win without a doubt."

"The difficulty now is how to get in front of the enemy. According to intelligence, the enemy's shooting range is three times that of our archers and ten times that of our musketeers. It's really too far away. This road is not easy to walk."

Shaista Khan said that he hoped that his subordinates could come up with some useful suggestions.

"There is no good way. We can only use human lives to fill it up. Let the infantry push the chariot forward. At most, 3 or [-] people will die. As long as they can rush to the enemy, this loss is acceptable."

said one of the generals, and Shaista Khan glared at him and cursed idiots inwardly.

If he can rush to the Chinese army with a loss of 3 or [-] people, of course he is willing.

But the problem is that people are not animals, they will think and be afraid, and if the casualties are too heavy, they will run away.

Not to mention people, even animals will escape.

"The superintendent team, use the death order to force those Sudras to advance, and kill those who dare to retreat."

Another general, Jadba, added that he meant to let the untouchables be cannon fodder.

Anyway, those untouchables are worthless, and they don't dare to disobey orders, so they are very useful cannon fodder.

The most important thing is that Jadba can't think of a better way, he can only think of using cavalry or cannon fodder.

Cavalry is too precious to be sent out casually, so the only way left is to use cannon fodder.

"You can also use cannons to shoot at Ming people to kill the enemy." Mughal officer Thakal said.

Everyone brainstormed, but only made adjustments in details, but did not come up with any creative tactics.

Counting the garrison in Bangladesh, it was only the second time they fought against the Ming army. They couldn't figure out the details of the Ming army at all, so naturally they couldn't think of any good solution.

And Kangxi Khan, who has been there on the western front, can tell them responsibly: Even if you are given time, it is impossible to come up with a good solution.
