  Chapter 1000 Battle of Qian'an with the self-written scroll (2)

  Sun Erzhu let the sweat on his forehead flow down the corners of his eyebrows and eyes. The stinging pain made his eyelids a little uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to blink, and stared fixedly ahead.

  The team officer's leather whip seemed to be whizzing past his ears. Of course, this was an illusion, a subconscious physiological reaction brought about by countless whips on the training ground.

  At this time, he held his shoulder against the **** of the gun. This heavy musket called a musket weighed 15 kilograms.

   Therefore, each gunner carries a gun rack on his back, so that the gun rack can be set up at any time in the field for stable aiming and shooting.

  Of course, it is no longer needed now. The low wall and wall stack can provide the most stable shooting frame and the best cover for them, but they cannot completely block the bows and arrows from the enemy above.

In the previous round of throwing by the enemy cavalry, Li Dahu beside him was hit by an arrow, which coincidentally pierced through the gap in the leaf armor next to the shoulder blade. Although it was not fatal, it was obvious that he could no longer afford it. The shooting mission was helped down and replaced by a supplementary soldier from their post named Xu Hong.

Their sentry is basically from the people of Luanzhou. Although they may not be from the same township, they are far from the hometown, so after they came to Fuzhi Lulong, the Luanzhou soldiers naturally became close together, no matter which one they were As long as they are from Luanzhou, they will naturally be a little closer.

  Each sentry has a team of supplementary soldiers. The deputy sentinel serves as the captain of the supplementary soldiers and organizes daily training. Once there is a shortage of battle losses in the battle, they are directly supplemented by the supplementary soldiers, and they also serve as the reserve team by the way.

  The supplementary soldiers are not equipped with firecrackers for each person, but a firecracker for five people. They take turns to train. If there is a battle loss or shortage, they will directly take over the opponent's firecrackers and add them to the team.

Seeing Xu Hong's pale face, Sun Erzhu, who was still a little nervous, relaxed a little, tilted his head slightly, and exhaled, "Xiao Xu, it's okay, just follow the usual training, listen to the captain's password, hold the gun, and aim. , shoot, but there is no need to retreat, but to close the gun directly, and do it all over again,..."

  Hearing Sun Erzhu's words, Xu Hong seemed to relax a little bit, "Understood, I'm just a little scared..."

"What are you afraid of? The more you are afraid, the more arrows will fall on your head..." Sun Erzhu repeated the captain's previous words, "Don't worry, the Mongol cavalry was scared by us just now, and we will never dare Here we come, now it's time for us to give a good lesson to those Mongolian soldiers who want to climb over our heads..."

  Before Sun Erzhu finished speaking, the captain's rough voice sounded, "You bastards, concentrate, the Mongols are coming up, and it's time for you to make meritorious deeds!"

  There was a sound of heavy footsteps walking behind Sun Erzhu with a strong smell of sweat. No need to ask, he knew it was Captain Xu Liang. Sun Erzhu concentrated his attention and focused his gaze on the front again.

The black Mongolian soldiers jogged forward pushing the wooden shields, but as the distance got closer, some wooden shields were constantly smashed by the Fran machine guns on the city wall, and the remaining soldiers could only rely on the skins in their hands. Shield to cover, slightly arched body, speeding up and rushing over.

   As a result, the entire formation began to become uneven, like a big mouth with criss-crossed teeth, swooping towards the city wall.

   "Attention! Aim, don't hit the wooden shield, aim at the Mongols holding leather shields, pay attention, use the gap between them, focus on the chest, abdomen, and thighs, don't aim too low,..."

  Captain Xu Liang's loud and unhurried voice sounded back and forth behind the group of people. The voice that usually sounded a bit shocking now has a magical power that can calm people's hearts.

  Sun Erzhu took a deep breath, looked forward along the barrel of the gun, and gently adjusted the direction of the barrel.

  At this time, he no longer cared about Xu Hong beside him, and focused all his attention on the enemy in front.

   Standing behind Sun Erzhu is another firearms player, Sun Shan. He is a distant relative of Sun Erzhu's village. He can be regarded as Sun Erzhu's uncle, but the blood relationship is too far away.

  At this time, he should also set up the gun frame firmly, hold the **** of the gun with both hands, and look straight ahead.

  The entire low wall can only accommodate the two teams to use the difference in height to form a two-stage attack.

   In the face of dense enemy charges, it is not a good idea to concentrate a round of shooting, because it is easy for several gunners to aim at the most conspicuous target, and the firepower is wasted.

  So use the first round of shooting to achieve the first round of elimination, and the remaining enemies who continue to charge forward can become the targets of the second round.

  The gunner who also finished the first round can methodically target the guys who survived the two rounds, and so on, until they shoot everyone.

  When the Mongolian infantry finally charged within 300 yards, several post chiefs who were measuring the distance began to raise their flags.

This is the standard firing range of the Musket heavy musket. Even if a soldier wearing leather armor is hit within this distance, the Musket heavy musket, also known as the Turtle Dove Gun, can still easily penetrate the leather armor and cause fatal damage to the opponent. harm.

   And if it is within one hundred yards, that is, thirty feet, the Musket heavy-duty firecracker can even penetrate any iron leaf armor or even ordinary plate armor!

   From a distance of 300 yards to a distance of 50 yards, even if they are running at extreme speed, in this environment, the two teams of musketeers can still easily shoot two rounds and four shots.

Zuo Liangyu concentrated more than 1,000 people from the two departments on the raised low wall in the middle, so that they could take the lead in firing and hit the enemy head-on, while letting the enemy troops in the depression rush in, so that they could use the bastion The two ends achieve staggered shooting and expand the shooting surface.

Zuo Liangyu fixed his eyes on the low wall under the city wall. He still had confidence in these well-trained sentry officers. He was originally the elite of the second division of the Bashan Camp, so he dared to put them on the ground. The position of sentry officer, and these soldiers and strong men were also brought out by them.

The whistle chief first brought out a group of captains, and then the captain came to lead Minzhuang. The whistle officer passed strict requirements on the captain, and urged the captain to treat the subordinates and corps leaders in the same way. This way of increasing the weight layer by layer made the whole training almost become A painful molt.

   Three hundred yards!

  Several whistle chiefs raised the triangular red flags planted behind their backs almost at the same time, swung them down suddenly, and exhaled: "First round, shoot!"

Accompanied by the hurried footsteps and roars of the captains, behind every soldier who was either lying on the crenel of the low wall or aiming at the gun, the gunshots of "Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!" The gunpowder smoke from the nostrils immediately floated inside and outside the entire low wall.

The whistling projectiles passed through the air rapidly, and the distance of 300 yards was only a blink of an eye. They quickly penetrated the leather shields in front of the Mongolian soldiers, and almost passed through without any hindrance and shot into them again. body of.

Sun Erzhu couldn't see whether he had hit the target, nor whether the companions around him had chosen the same target as himself, but he could clearly see that the surging Mongolian soldiers seemed to have been punched by something. , The originally uneven front suddenly shrank back a piece, becoming uneven in thickness.

Not allowing Sun Erzhu to think too much, subconsciously getting used to the action, he squatted down and retracted the fire gun, and began to prepare for the second round of shooting in an orderly manner. At the same time, Captain Xu Liang's voice roared again: "The second round ,shooting!"

The firecracker rang out from the back of his head, it was Sun Shan's firecracker, and all the sparks that spewed out seemed to fall on him, but Sun Erzhu didn't feel it, and he wholeheartedly followed the standard movements during training, and completed it in the shortest time Load the ammunition, then aim the gun.

  Sokto walked like flying, waving a leather shield in one hand, and holding a ring knife in the other, moving forward with high spirits.

  Behind him, on his left and right, are his subordinates who are constantly running after him. Taking the lead is the most effective at this time. When you are not afraid of danger and death, then your soldiers can also ignore everything.

Accompanied by a layer of smoke rising from the low wall, Suoketo's heart tightened, and he subconsciously raised his shield and shrunk his body behind the shield as much as possible. His companions also performed the same standard movements, but This distance made Sockto a little puzzled.

He knew that the Da Zhou army seemed to be changing into firecrackers. The power of those three-eyed firecrackers was so bad that basically they could only kill within a hundred steps, but this was about three hundred steps. Zhou Jun's new firecrackers are so powerful, he doesn't quite believe it.

But the cruel fact quickly gave him a slap in the face. He almost saw Zhe Mubu beside him staggered at the original steady pace, and then stabilized again, but only took two steps, and started to drift again. Suoketo saw the hole in the opponent's leather shield, and then saw the dark red blood donation bubbling out of the opponent's leather armor, the corner of his mouth also began to bleed, and finally fell to the ground softly in fatigue.

Before Suoketo could accept such a cruel reality, he saw another puff of smoke rising from the opposite low wall, and the two soldiers in front of him fell to the ground almost at the same time. The severe pain caused them to curl up on the ground, Struggled violently.

Suoketo realized the seriousness of the problem. If he couldn't rush to the low wall to launch an attack in the shortest possible time, the Zhou army on the low wall would seize the time to launch the third and fourth rounds of shooting. The feeling of shooting at the target is too uncomfortable, just like the prey stared at by the hunter, no matter how you struggle, you are always under the hunter's arrows.

  The only way is to speed up desperately, climb up the low wall, and turn the firecrackers of the Zhou army into fire sticks!

   Can I get some more monthly passes? Seek all kinds of support!
