I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

After a few rounds of artillery salvos, the center of the two armies was less than 150 meters apart.

At this distance, the flintlock gun department of the Ming army has stopped and started shooting.

This made the Qing army on the opposite side very embarrassed. They could shoot so far, but such a long distance might not be accurate, and the efficiency was low.

After one shot, it would be difficult for them to reload, at least for more than a minute.

Therefore, they generally go closer to play. However, the Ming army had already started shooting non-stop, and they continued to move forward without fighting back, which was a great blow to morale.

In the face of the flintlock gun, the Qing army, the fire gun army, had absolutely no tactics to deal with.

In other words, because of the fatal weakness of the arquebus, the Qing army did not pay attention to the fire gun soldiers at all, and did not train too many related tactics.

It was the first time these gunmen encountered the flintlock troops, and they didn't know how to deal with it.

With the sound of gunfire, nearly a hundred people of the Qing army fell.

Although the hit rate is low at this distance, the number of soldiers cannot be overwhelmed. A salvo of more than 2,000 people in the front row of the Ming army, as long as the hit rate reaches 5%, the Qing army will lose nearly 100 people.

One hundred people didn't seem like a lot, but the flintlock guns couldn't stand the fast rate of fire. It wasn't long before the gunshots stopped, and the second round had already started.

Moreover, because the distance is still safe, the Ming army actually played three-stage shooting.

After the first row fired, immediately retreated to reload, the second row fired, and the third row was ready. This tactic makes full use of time and makes the firing frequency faster.

"Rush over, rush in front of the enemy and we will win."

The commander shouted, causing the Fire Gun Army to speed up and charge forward.

Just standing and being beaten will affect morale too much, and rushing over is the most correct way. It's just that his order suddenly turned the fire gun soldiers into cold weapon troops with big swords.

More importantly, their hand-to-hand combat ability is completely incomparable to the sword and shield soldiers holding large swords, because the bayonet on their fire gun is very fragile and easily broken.

Installing the bayonet on the barrel is also a kind of technical work, not that it can be done casually.

The Qing army only knew that the Ming army's firearms pressed the bayonet on the barrel of the gun, but they did not know exactly how to do it, and could only ponder based on their own experience.

And the result is, of course, very bad. Their bayonet was neither sharp enough nor tough enough. Moreover, the junction of the bayonet and the barrel is also very fragile, and it is easy to fall off under violent impact, assassination, etc.

The fire gun without the bayonet is a fire stick.

It is quite scary to use when the neighbors are fighting, but on the battlefield, this fire stick is equivalent to a display, and the bayonet in the face of the enemy can only be slaughtered.

The commander of the Qing army wanted to let the fire gun army get closer, and then make a salvo to exert the power of the fire gun army.

Of course, that's all they have left.

When they rushed to only fifty meters, the Qing army's fire guns also stopped and launched a salvo.

This round of salvos also killed a lot of Ming troops, but that was the end of it.

The next Qing army was quite embarrassed. Continuing to rush seemed to be courting death, and the retreat was still within the range of the Ming army.

In desperation, the officer commanded the soldiers to continue the charge.

However, at such a close distance, the power of the Ming army's flintlock gun was fully exerted.

One round of salvo, the Qing army directly fell nearly a thousand people.

The soldiers who fell in rows and rows were like being shot dead.

Before they could reach the Ming army, the soldiers collapsed and fled backwards.

In the telescope, Bo Luo saw the comparison between his own fire gun troops and the enemy fire gun troops, and almost dropped the telescope in his hand in anger. But when he thought that this was the only telescope, he was reluctant.

The performance of the Fire Gun Army disappointed him so much that it was nothing.

He didn't understand, the same firearm, how could the difference be so big.

"Let Azig prepare to lead the cavalry charge and crush their Chinese army at any cost."

Bo Luo said angrily, he originally wanted to fight a low-cost big victory, but now that he saw the power of the Ming army, he quickly abandoned this unrealistic idea.

All he wants now is to win, and in order to win, he can bear a certain loss.

At this time, the right wing of the main battlefield.

Because there was no obstruction from the Ming army, the Qing army was advancing very fast, and it seemed that it was about to meet the Ming army.

"Grenade."

Liu Hansan ordered, and immediately, the grenadiers threw grenades at the enemy army that was still 20 to 30 meters away.

These Qing troops, who had not experienced the baptism of grenades, were very puzzled when they first saw these dark iron rods.

However, soon they would no longer have such doubts. Those grenades exploded in the crowd, killing and injuring a large area.

Various screams sounded, causing the other soldiers to have great panic.

The unknown is the most terrifying. If it is a rain of arrows, they will not be afraid, because they have all experienced it. But for this mysterious grenade, they were a little uncomfortable for a while.

"Keep going."

The commander of the Qing army shouted that they were more sober and more aware than the soldiers, and they all knew that there was something in the Wu army that could be thrown out and exploded.

It's just that I only heard about it before, but now it's the first time I've seen it with my own eyes.

deal with this

The best way to grow grenades is to engage with enemy troops and mix them together. As long as you enter the melee, the enemy will not dare to throw grenades, after all, this thing can't distinguish between friends and foes.

The Qing army rushed up, and the Ming army collectively threw a round of grenades.

Nearly a thousand grenades rushed like a swarm of locusts and fell into the army.

Suddenly, the tragic explosion sounded again, and the momentum of this explosion was much larger than the previous one.

Nearly a thousand grenades exploded at the same time, the sound of which directly overshadowed the sound of the cannon, causing Bo Luo to turn his telescope to the right wing, and then he saw a scene that made him almost vomit blood.

Those Qing troops who finally rushed to the front of the Ming army were blown away by this round of grenades, and they retreated one after another. No matter how the commander reprimanded them, they could not stop them.

"Supervising the team, any troops who dare to retreat privately will be killed without mercy."

Bo Luo said furiously that his army was suffering on the entire battlefield, making him so full of anger that he had nowhere to vent.

He had an advantage in military strength, but he was unable to exert it for a long time.

Right now, he can only pin his hopes on his trump card, those cavalry.

As long as the cavalry smashed the Ming army's Chinese troops, the victory of the battle still belonged to them.

When the cavalry went to attack the infantry phalanx, this Boluo was still very confident, he believed in his cavalry unit.

Hong Chengchou, who was on the side, already felt bad at this time. The battle process on the entire battlefield was completely different from what they expected.

The central army was overwhelmed and could not even get close, and the right flank finally got close, but was repelled and suffered heavy losses.

At present, the situation is slightly better, that is, the left wing. Both sides of the left wing are cold weapon troops, and the number is extremely large. At this time, it has entered the stage of hand-to-hand combat. Although they suffered a little loss when charging forward, they finally made contact and started a bloody battle.

If you can defeat the left wing of the Ming army, you can also force the Ming army to retreat.

And once the Ming army retreated, the Qing army's cavalry advantage in pursuit would be further magnified.

This is also an opportunity for the Qing army. They only need one point to complete the breakthrough to win the battle. However, the Ming army must be able to withstand every point and win a big victory in one point in order to win the battle.

Although the Qing army has suffered a lot now, in terms of the strength comparison on the battlefield, the Qing army still firmly occupies the advantage.
