The lord hunted down by the game

Chapter 159

"Why so fast?!"

"The enemies all charge with guns and cannons. They are not afraid of death at all, and even if they are killed, their bodies will turn into blue light and disappear. They are not human beings at all, not human beings!!!"

The messenger reported with tears in his eyes.

Even the messengers were frightened into this look, and Castro understood why the front line collapsed so quickly.

However, Castro would not give up like that. Less than 2 people were defeated, and he still had enough capital.

Following Castro's military orders, the Spanish mercenaries who had just set out to outflank Yuri's troops came to support Castro's central army.

Although these Spanish mercenaries have poor military discipline and poor organization, the transfer of the large army is still possible.

After all, the high-level officers are all purebred whites, and the middle-level officers are generally native whites. In Spanish colonial society, they are higher than mixed-race whites, and they are also the targets that mixed-race whites aspire to be. There is still some basic awe.

Therefore, under the command and mobilization of these people, the mixed-race white soldiers at the bottom did not dare to cause trouble, otherwise the Spaniards would shoot the mixed-race whites without mercy.

The Spanish colonies were not a place that respected human rights, or in other words, they only respected human rights for pure-blood white people.

Even though 2 people were killed, Castro still did not give up his attack on Yuri's headquarters.

After all, Castro knew very well that only by killing Yuri could he truly win. Otherwise, if one wave of summoned legions was destroyed, a second wave would appear.

It's just that the scale of this wave of summoned legions exceeded Castro's estimate, and was seriously inconsistent with the information provided by the British.

Therefore, Castro just moved his headquarters away and turned it into a 'mobile' headquarters.

Because Castro couldn't guarantee how long his new line of defense would last, instead of being forced by the enemy to keep moving the headquarters, he simply rode his horse and went directly to the front line attacking Yuri's headquarters as mobile command.

As for the battle against Yuri's summoned army, Castro handed it all over to his generals.

The Ming army's offensive was very fierce, and the Spanish mercenaries ran away with their heads in their arms. However, it was also because of the Ming army's fearless attack that they kept exposing themselves to the firepower of the Spanish guns. The casualties were quite large.

The Spaniard's two-wing armies responded quickly, after all, they received Castro's military order before they had gone too far.

Therefore, when the Ming army was attacking fiercely, the two wings were suddenly bombarded by a large group of enemy troops!

The Ming army of these trial regiments was also stunned by tigers. Not only did they not stop their offensive after being bombarded, they also directly split the rear team that did not participate in the front-line attack into two and launched a desperate charge against the Spanish army on the two wings!
When the slogan of Great Ming Victory spread to the Spanish army on both wings, the battle situation expanded rapidly, causing the number of casualties in the war to rise in a straight line.

The powerful killing of guns makes the battlefield extremely cruel.

Even many of the Spanish mercenary veterans who have experienced many battles have never seen such a crazy style of play.

The soldiers on the opposite side raised their weapons and charged forward without any cover. After firing a volley of muskets, bows and arrows, they charged directly. Before entering the melee, there was a wave of javelins waiting...

You know, all this was done with a lot of grapeshot and lead bullets!

It can be said that among the Ming army's charging team, the blue light of corpses has never stopped. Every minute and every second, a large number of Ming army soldiers fell on the road of charging!

It's a pity that no matter how fierce the firepower of the Spanish mercenaries is, it still cannot be compared with the era of machine guns. No matter how wide the damage area of ​​the grape bullets is, the cumbersome loading of the grape bullets is doomed to be unable to stop the real crowds.

As a result, the Spanish army on both wings only lasted for more than an hour before being defeated across the board!

Of course, their defeat was still meaningful to Castro. The armies on both wings dispersed nearly half of the Ming army's main offensive force, giving Castro's central army a chance to breathe.

The Ming army's trial soldiers are also human beings. Even if they are not afraid of death, they still have physical limitations. Every time they break through a position, they need a certain period of rest to recover their physical strength.

Originally, the Ming army's trial legion had sufficient strength and could take turns to attack.

After the first wave captures a position, rest on the spot, and then the second wave takes over and continues to attack the next enemy position.

At the beginning, the Ming army displayed a powerful momentum, and it was this continuous step-by-step attack that made the Spaniards lose their positions one after another.

However, after nearly half of the soldiers were dispersed to attack the Spanish troops on both wings, coupled with the troops lost in the Ming army's previous attack, they could only maintain the intensity of one attack wave, and there was no new force in the rear to carry out a replacement attack.

This made it necessary for the Ming army to take a certain amount of time to rest and recover its strength every time it captured a position.

Otherwise, if you can't even run, how can you kill people?
Castro used this gap to win precious breathing time. Whenever a position was captured on the front line, Castro would use the rest of the Ming soldiers to gather the broken troops and add some fresh troops to organize the second attack. a temporary field position.

Although there is no time to dig the parapet of the trench, it is not a problem to form a "human wall" line of defense.

Thanks to the huge strength of the Spanish Legion, Castro can still form an advantage over Andrew's Second Army of the United States of America on the front line despite continuous defeats.

It's not that Andrew's Second Legion is not capable of fighting, but that the grassroots officers and soldiers don't have much desire to fight.

They were already prisoners of war soldiers who had surrendered once, fighting for the devil-like Yuri, so naturally they didn't have the initiative to fight.

If the enemy is not strong, maybe they can muster the courage to fight, but the enemy's strength is clearly superior, and the offensive has become more ferocious after Castro came to the front line. Naturally, the Second Army is retreating steadily... Oh no, It's a strategic retreat!
But soon Castro also encountered a shortage of troops.

In order to stop Yuri's trial legion behind him, 5 of Castro's 1-strong army were used for defense and follow-up reserve forces. The number of troops attacking Yuri's headquarters was less than [-]!

Artillery is only [-]%!

Castro didn't dare to deploy artillery to bombard Andrew's Second Army, otherwise, there would not be enough artillery behind to suppress and kill Yuri's summoned army, and the Spanish mercenaries might avalanche before firing a single shot!
Artillery can effectively boost the morale of Spanish mercenaries!
This is the only thing that can improve the morale of Spanish mercenaries now...
