Chapter 278 Fire to Fire
As soon as the cavalry rushed out a few hundred steps, they were found by the team of the tars.
The jumping clown also dared to come out and show his eyes. The Tatar commander secretly sneered in his heart that there were only dozens of people in that team. If he dared to attack thousands of people, he simply didn't know how to write the dead word.
"Stop moving forward, fire is ready." The commander shouted.
The cavalry immediately turned from Mercedes-Benz's march to defense, turned the horse's head, faced the incoming cavalry, and began to prepare the fire in an orderly manner.
Three-eyed fire and wooden handle are about five feet long. Therefore, put the wooden handle on the ground and touched the mouth of the mouth of the horse on the horse. They took out the gunpowder from their pockets, began to pour the gunpowder from the mouth, then pounded it, put it into the iron pills, and stretched out the lead.
A series of movements were completed in a short time, showing that their team's training was very sufficient, and they were more confident in their three-eyed fire.
Put the wooden handle under the right rib, raise the mouth of the three-eyed fire tube slightly, and the left hand has picked up the fire fold. After the other party approaches again, the three-eyed fire will give the other party a devastating blow.
Only a hundred fires can be fired, and the team of dozens of people can be completely eliminated. The commander is purely to give the other party a horse. The guards are not vegetarian.
The other party is getting closer and closer, one thousand steps, eight hundred steps, six hundred steps, five hundred steps. Everyone is waiting. Because it takes a short period of time to ignite the fire twist to burn the gunpowder, some people's fire fold has approached the twist, ready to approach the other party to three hundred steps, and then start lighting, just waiting for the other party. When they approached 200 steps, the fire fired and beat them upside down.
They seemed to have seen the other party running away in embarrassment, and then they charged again and hit the other party fiercely with fire.
The other party actually stopped at a place of 300 steps, as if waiting for something.
"First team, light the fire, charge!" The commander said.
Since the other party refuses to come forward and enter its own range, then rush up and destroy the other party.
The hundred-man team that received the order immediately lit the fire fold in their hands, and then held the fire under the ribs in their right hand, pulled the rein with their left hand, and began to charge.
During the period of burning the lead, a distance of 100 steps can be completely passed. They are ready to chase after the firing of the fire.
"Bamp, bang," At the moment of the first team's charge, the opponent's fire began to shoot.
Coward! At such a long distance, why don't you run away after opening fire? The commander thought with disdain that at such a long distance, the projectile had not known where he had flown for a long time. With this ability, he was still ashamed to come all the way to intercept himself?
Unexpectedly, with the sound of fire, more than 30 cavalry fell down. The fire that had not yet been launched fell to the ground. Several of them actually reversed, pointing to the side of the cavalry, only a few steps away!
Qianfu was surprised. He had already seen that in a blink of an eye, dozens of cavalry fell down, proving that the other party was definitely not shooting blindly, but their fire can completely exert its power at this distance!
Thinking of this, his face changed. At the same time, he further aroused the determination to destroy the cavalry, annihilated them, snatched the fire, and returned them to the Wubei Temple for study.
"Ban, bang," suddenly, the second round of fire came again, and the commander's heart could only be described as shock. The other party's fire, like a three-eyed fire, can be launched continuously? However, it seems to be a little different. The three-eyed fire is connected. Once ignited, the three fires are launched at the same time, and the other party seems to be able to be launched separately?
At this time, there were only 30 or 40 cavalry left, and there were still more than 200 steps away from the other side. At this distance, the shooting accuracy of the three-eyed fire can not be guaranteed at all.
"Boom, boom," At this time, the three-eyed fire finally sounded. The distance of more than 200 steps was destined to be a gift. The other party was still fine, and nothing happened, and the three-eyed fire fell to the ground, with several inverted mouths, shooting at his side, which was only a few dozen steps.
"Hang!" The man was fine, but several war horses were injured in the legs. They raised their front hoofs high and threw the soldiers down. Although the horse has been strictly trained, it still can't keep calm in pain.
The remaining soldiers of the Hundred Mans rushed forward with the three-eyed fire that had been fired. Their companions had fallen here, and they were full of anger at this moment.
Unfortunately, the other party didn't give them a chance at all. After the third round of fire, they all fell to the ground.
This is arrogant, and there is no arrogant in your eyes at all!
The commander was full of anger. He was the most elite cavalry in the court. Unexpectedly, he was so ignored by these rebels that he put down one of his hundred-man teams, and the other party was unharmed!
Although he was angry, he also understood that the opponent's firearm was indeed more advanced than his own. Therefore, if another 100-person team was sent up, he would still end up in the same way. The oil-adding tactics would not work, only the whole army would attack!
"Shock!" The commander shouted angrily.
Hearing the order, the remaining nine hundred-person team rushed forward at the same time. The fire fold had already lit the fire. Although the distance was a little far, the rain formed by the nine hundred three-eyed fire was enough to drown the other party!
"Withdraw quickly!" When Zhao Zixiong saw the other party's momentum, he naturally did not dare to make it big. Although the other party's firearms were not as accurate as his own, in this case, Danyu would definitely tear up his team of dozens of people.
Turning the horse's head, they ran back quickly.
Seeing the enemy running away, the tar cavalry became even more angry. They desperately clamped the horse's abdomen and let the horse run quickly, ready to chase them up and beat them hard.
The twist has been burned out, and all three bullets of the three-eyed fire have been released. However, it is too far away that the other party has not been hit at all.
After running forward for a while, the commander suddenly came back. Isn't there any ambush? Today's events are too strange. Dozens of people dare to challenge their own thousand-person team?
And now, the fire has been launched, and it can only be hand-to-hand combat after being close, which is undoubtedly unfavorable.
When the commander thought of this, he wanted the team to close up. At least he had to fill the fire again before he could have some confidence.
"B Bang, Bang," Suddenly, dozens of people who had just escaped turned around and shot at the team. More than a dozen people rushed to the front and fell down.
Now, the cavalry was completely angry. They had never seen such a bully. They tried their best to catch up like crazy, trying to beat each other with their three-eyed fire.
Zhao Zixiong was secretly happy. Just now, he saw that the tars were running slower and slower, so he stopped and provoked the tars again. Sure enough, the tars were tricked.
They fired a pass and then ran to the hillside.
When the commander saw it, he sneered in his heart. The other party was really panicked. The cavalry was invincible on the plain. However, when he got to the mountain, it was far away. When he rushed down from the mountain, he could still have some momentum. However, if he rushed to the mountain, he could only run slower and harder.
"Chase, catch up and avenge your brothers!" The commander said viciously.
The cavalry rushed to the hillside in a swarm, and the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer.
Zhao Zixiong suddenly turned his horse's head, stopped, and looked happily at the tar cavalry approaching in front of him, with such a bright smile.
The other cavalry also turned the horse's head and raised the sky again.
The commander had a sense of uneasiness. Moreover, as he rushed higher and higher on the hillside, the sense of uneasiness became stronger and stronger. Seeing that the rebels in front of him suddenly stopped, the commander suddenly realized that there must be an ambush!
"Retreat!"
"Boom, boom, boom!" It's too late. There are explosions everywhere, black smoke everywhere, and shouts of pain everywhere.
When the smoke dissipated, there were limbs and broken arms everywhere around, and even the war horses were torn apart.
Those who survived were already scared. They knew that the underground explosives had just exploded, and they were calculated!
Run! For no reason, the rest of the tars all ran back. Some of the war horses had been lost, and the girls ran faster.
It's just that no matter how fast you run, you can't be as fast as bullets.
"Ban, bang, bang." There were countless voices of fire all around. All the soldiers in ambush around stood up at this moment and fired skillfully. It was time to beat the water dog.
Looking at the glow in the sky, Zhao Zixiong was calm.
"Your excellency, my excellency, it's not good." During the march, a few soldiers suddenly ran in front of the general in a panic, looking like dirt.
"What's so flustered? What's the style?" Yue Kuo'er scolded.
"Your Excellency, our striker has been ambushed, and the whole army has been destroyed!" The soldier said.
Yue Kuo Chaer was shocked. The striker can be said to be a very elite team, especially the leading commander, who was extremely brave. Why was he suddenly eliminated?
"Where is it?" Xue Xue asked.
"It's on an unnamed slope 30 miles away." The soldier said.
This team is too arrogant. After all, it has entered the northern province of Huainan River. Although it has not arrived at Gaoyoufu, it is very peaceful here. The former team is 30 miles away from itself. No wonder it has been ambushed.
"Speed up and move forward quickly." Yue Kuo'er ordered that he and Xue Xue looked at each other with some worry in his eyes.
Unfortunately, when it arrived, there was no sign of the enemy, only those soldiers and horses who fell to the ground. The scene was terrible.
There are many large pits on the ground. The bodies are messy, and some of the bodies are complete, but they bounce back. At a glance, you can see that it is a premeditted ambush.
"Who did this?" Yue Kuo Chaer was completely angry.
"We have entered the Huainan River North Province. I think it may have been done by Zhang Shicheng's men." Xue Xue said.
"Zhang Shicheng? It's still far from Gaoyou Mansion!" Yue Kuochaer said, "It can't be done by Liu Futong's men, right?"
"Recently, under the joint attack of Chahan and Li Siqi, Liu Futong has been running away for a long time. How dare we be wild on our heads?" Xue Xue said, "Although this place is far from Gaoyoufu, the guard here is very weak, and Zhang Shicheng has advanced firearms. Our striker was completely shot by firearms. It seems that we have to be careful!"
Although Liu Futong was brave, his men did not have firearms, not even many bows and arrows, and his own people were killed by firearms, and it was completely possible that Zhang Shicheng's people did it.
Moreover, looking at the battle at the scene, it is completely one-sided. Even if there is the advantage of ambush, there are also the advantages and disadvantages of weapons. Its troops are equipped with the most advanced three-eyed fire gun, and it seems that they still failed to defeat the other party.
The two of them were a little worried about the upcoming battle.
"Order the team, shrink the army column, and the distance between the front and back should not be too long." Yue Kuochaer said.
Since the other party can eat a thousand-person team in one go, proving that the other party's combat effectiveness is not low, you can no longer disperse the troops and give the other party a chance.
"In return to the master, the striker encountered a raid and lost a thousand-person team. Please be careful." Xue Xue also said.
My team is a cavalry, and I have suffered a big loss, not to mention that most of the Chinese army led by the imperial division is a step-up.
Zhao Zixiong led the team and observed the passing Tutarius brigade like a hungry wolf. At this moment, they seemed to twist into a rope and put them into several columns. I'm afraid it was not so easy to sneak attack again. Moreover, this was obviously an elite army of the Tutars, also carrying a fire gun.
After the battle just now, Zhao Zixiong picked up a fire gun to observe. Although the workmanship was rough, there were three gun tubes, which meant that he could be shot three times in a row. What surprised him most was that the other party's fire was actually made of copper! This is really a great help for the insent army.
The steel of the uprising army is no longer a problem, but copper has to be bought at a high price, and copper must be used to manufacture some parts. Therefore, it is also a large expense. The seized fire can be worth a lot of silver taels. Zhao Zixiong immediately ordered someone to put away all the fire and send a team to send it back.
However, there are no fighters next. Once this elite army of the tars alarms them, I'm afraid they will have to encircle themselves with all their strength, which is not worth the loss. It's still the same set of tactics. It is no longer applicable to these tartar cavalry with a large number of firearms, because they have tens of thousands of people, and they only have thousands of them. The other party Rushing over like crazy, I have to explain everything here.
Zhao Zixiong has decided to let the other party go, at least he has to make trouble for them at night. Or just find an opportunity to fight the officers and soldiers with lax defense.
He sat in the carriage and was looking at the map on the table.
This is a big carriage. The car is wide, with a detachable guard of honor, a large bed, and a table in it.
The car was a little bumpy, and he didn't care at all. He was used to it. The turmoil in Gaoyou Mansion had to calm down quickly, otherwise, the court would have a food crisis.
Although those dignitaries have food in their families, and there will be no problem, most of the people in the capital will probably fall into a state of hunger. As a great teacher who cares about the world, they still care more about ordinary people. What's more, this is directly related to the stability and unity of the court.
If you want to attack Gaoyou Prefecture, you must at least take Baoying County in the north of Gaoyou Prefecture first, and with Baoying County as the backing, all the siege equipment, grain and grass can be placed in Baoying, while Xinghua in the east and Taizhou in the southeast can naturally collapse after capturing Gaoyou Prefecture.
Anyone who dares to resist the court will be killed without mercy! Thinking of this, I took off my eyes and let the whole world know that if I rebelled against the court, I would die!
"Report, Lord Xue Xue, the Privy Council, has a military report." A soldier ran to the car and said.
"Come up." Take off and say to the outside.
Tot out knows that Xue Xue led the team to the front. Is there a situation in front of him?
"Master, an hour ago, the former team was inexplicably blocked, and a thousand-person team was unfortunately killed." The soldier came up and said.
What? Is the thousand-person team over? He asked, "How is that possible? It's just out of Zhongshu Province. Who did it?
"Lord Xue Xue and Lord Yue Kuo Chaer are investigating and sending villains to report to the master."
"Tell them to march carefully, send a wide range of scouts, and be sure to find the attackers!" Take it off and say it.
"Yes." After the messenger answered, he retreated.
The more I think about it, the more I feel that there is a problem. How can a thousand-person team be so easily eliminated by the other party? Who has such a great ability? Did Zhang Shicheng take the initiative to attack himself? Didn't he kill himself?
Suddenly, I remembered the weight of the back team. If the other party attacked his own food and fodder, there would be a big trouble.
"Come on!" He shouted. He said.
"Yes, my lord." The captain of the guard came in.
"Immediately inform the heavy squad behind you and order Aru to be careful to prevent being ambushed."
"Yes, my lord." The captain of the guard said he wanted to go out and sent someone to inform him.
"Come back," Totout shouted, "sid two thousand cavalry to the back team, and you must protect the weight."
Pan Yuanshao stood on the mound and looked at a large group of people in the distance.
Zhao Zixiong aimed at the forward of the Tutar team, while Pan Yuanshao aimed at the back team.
The strikers are all hard stubble, and the back team has more good things. For example, as long as a large amount of food and fodder is burned off the other party's food and fodder, it is likely to make the other party useless.
Although these back teams, although there are many people, in Pan Yuanshao's eyes, there is no combat effectiveness at all. Looking at their marching posture, it is like a group of scattered lambs, and the flags are also messy and not murderous at all.
And in the middle of them, there are many carriages, all covered with thatch. I don't know if under the thatch, is it grain or all kinds of siege equipment?
Pan Yuanshao looked at them as if the hungry wolf had seen the fat sheep.
Watching the other party getting closer and closer, and they have long been away from the Chinese army in front of them for more than ten miles.
"Ban!" A red signal bomb flew into the sky. At the same time, Pan Yuanshao's cavalry columns, which were divided into several teams, ran to the other side from several directions.
The other party is all infantry. As long as you can rush within a hundred steps, throw a grenade and ignite the things on the other party's car, it will be regarded as completing the task.
