Chapter 226 Gold and iron horse, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger!(2/3)
In front of the muskets, no matter how powerful the heavy armor is, it is only equivalent to a piece of paper and cannot provide any protection at all. On the contrary, it will drag them down even more miserably.
The heavy cavalry of Iron Buddha is even worse, because every three horses are connected with leather ropes. If one horse is shot and falls to the ground, the other two horses will also be dragged down.
Originally, the short distance of fifty meters could be rushed over in an instant, but now they discovered that this distance was like a chasm.
The horses in the front row fell to the ground, and the horses in the back row were also tripped. The arrogant Iron Pagoda encountered a blow that did not belong to this era, and was harvested one after another like a crop.
In this huge chaos, the soldiers in the rear row of the Flying Tiger Army continued to shoot, and the soldiers in the front row also continued to shoot after loading...
The entire Iron Buddha Temple collapsed almost instantly.
As for the two wings, the roundabout outflanking by the kidnappers also turned into a joke.
After the first round of mounted shooting, they originally felt good about themselves and drew their bows and arrows again. However, before the second round of mounted shooting began, the opponent had already opened fire.
Just like the Iron Buddha, the Kaizima collapsed in an instant.
Originally, the kidnapper horse had an advantage against the infantry phalanx, because the infantry phalanx was a rectangle or nearly a square, and the kidnapper horse could form a local overmatch by constantly riding and shooting at the corners.
But at this time, the Flying Tiger Army formed a long array, which meant that the Kaizi Ma could only effectively attack the opponent by entering a range that was almost parallel to the array.
Once the Kaizima cavalry and the Flying Tiger Army entered a parallel state, the competition would be purely based on the lethality of the weapons in both sides' hands.
The advantage of the dense array in the flintlock era is that firing together can make up for the low hit rate of muskets to the maximum extent. Someone can always hit anyway.
So, under a round of intensive shooting, the kidnappers began to fall to the ground one after another.
The torrent formed by the three cavalry was like water hitting an invisible wall and instantly collapsed!
But the charge of the Jin Army's cavalry was still not over.
Because during the charge of the Iron Buddha cavalry, the cavalry in the rear row had no idea what was happening in the front row. Perhaps they had seen the cavalry in the front row falling in pieces, but it was impossible for them to stop.
As for the Flying Tiger Army, they were just waiting for work to take turns shooting.
These soldiers formed five long arrays, each array was about half a meter apart. Each array could fire three shots within a minute. This number multiplied by five means that every four seconds
There was a dense volley at the bell.
But under the two conditions of a dense enough formation and a close enough distance, they did not need to aim carefully and shoot carefully.
Just use the fastest speed to pull the trigger towards the huge targets ahead.
The iron pagodas began to fall down in large numbers as soon as they entered within fifty meters. The armored heavy cavalry in the front row rolled on the ground and dragged down the cavalry in the rear, thus becoming a living target for the Flying Tiger Army to shoot.
The situation on the Kaizima side is slightly better. After all, they are light cavalry and are not connected with leather ropes, so they can still escape.
At this time, the fate of Tiefu Tu was worse than that of a kidnapping horse.
After all, everyone is equal before a gun. No matter how thick the armor is, it cannot block a shot. On the contrary, it will reduce one's mobility.
In the age of cold weapons, we could often see warriors who were full of arrows and fought bravely like hedgehogs, but we had never seen a monster that was still alive and kicking after being shot twice.
After all, this is the ultimate trial, not the expedition of the Orderers, and the power that demons can project into this slice of history is very limited.
Therefore, these golden soldiers only have a slight increase in their fighting will, but their actual combat effectiveness has not been improved.
However, the enhancement of fighting will has turned into a negative state.
Yu Jiaxuan, who was waiting with heavy cavalry at the side, was completely stunned.
Can you still fight like this?
The scene that happened in front of him was completely beyond his understanding. He only saw gunpowder smoke shooting out of those strange-shaped spears, accompanied by a huge noise, and then he saw the heavy cavalry falling one after another close at hand.
He fell down and never got up again.
The feeling of the ancients at this time was like that of modern people who saw the torrent of steel advancing from a tank regiment, and ended up with a row of infantrymen holding anti-material firearms and killing them all instantly.
There is only one feeling, that is incredible!
Even Yu Jiaxuan felt that the heavy cavalry he brought was not good at all.
He originally thought that heavy cavalry was the most powerful unit in the world, and could easily crush any enemy they encountered. But now he put himself in the Iron Buddha's shoes and thought about it.
, it seems that the only fate is to be massacred unilaterally...
As for the old party members who were high up, they were even more stunned at this moment and could not say a word.
They simply could not imagine that the arrogant Iron Buddha could be wiped out so easily.
"Demon...demon magic..."
"Could it be that a heavenly master descends to earth and spreads beans to form an army?"
Two old party officials with gray beards said tremblingly.
For people of this era, this is not like something that can be done by human power, but more like magic and magic.
Even Wen Junshi was completely stunned. After a long time, he looked at Wang Wenchuan: "What on earth is this?"
Wang Wenchuan, played by Chu Ge, smiled and said: "This is the new burst gun recently developed by the Ministry of Industry."
Wen Junshi murmured: "The new burst gun... is so terrifyingly powerful..."
Chu Ge smiled softly and said: "Wen Yushi, at this moment, I want to ask you a question.
“Can the ancestral method defeat the Iron Buddha?”
Wen Junshi's face changed slightly and he said: "This is the power of firearms, what does it have to do with the ancestral method?"
Chu Ge sighed: "This is where your fallacy, Censor Wen, lies.
"Do you think this victory was only because of firearms? Have you ever thought about where firearms came from?
"Behind these firearms is a full decade of innovation carried out by the Ministry of Industry. From the production and research of firearms to the training of the army, every link in this process consumes a lot of money.
“Without the money provided to the state treasury by the new law, how could we have developed such a flying tiger army?
"If there is no Flying Tiger Army and the Jin soldiers move south, the whole territory of our Qi Dynasty will be ignited with flames of war, and then it will be a tragic situation like 'the bones are exposed in the wild and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles.'
"When the time comes, no matter how many fertile fields there are, no matter how many cattle, sheep and livestock there are, and no matter how many diligent farmers there are, they will inevitably become dead souls killed by the sword of the golden man.
"After a fire, how many ruins will be left in this prosperous world of flowers and flowers?
"You always say that the world's wealth is fixed and the laws of our ancestors are immutable.
"But if you continue to implement the methods of your ancestors according to your method, how will you get the money and food to build such a strong army?
"Wen Yushi, think about it carefully. If you took over the position ten years ago, and ten years later, the kidnappers from Tiefu Tu come knocking on your doorstep, can you use the methods of your ancestors to persuade them to retreat?"
Chu Ge's words left Wenjun speechless.
If it were ten years ago, he would never admit that the new law had any benefits. It was definitely a law that was harmful to the country and the people.
But now, the naked reality is before him, leaving him unable to refute.
Indeed, on the surface, it seems that this victory was due to new firearms, but where did the new firearms come from?
In the final analysis, it relies on the new law to accumulate money for the national treasury.
If there is no such money and food, even if similar technology is available, there will be no money to mass-produce firearms and equip troops. On the contrary, even if there is no such firearm technology, as long as you have money, you can build a powerful army and use cold weapons.
way to fight to the death with the Jin soldiers.
Wen Junshi keeps saying that he supports the ancestral method, but will Jin Bing tell you about the ancestral method?
If Wen Junshi took over the position ten years ago, then it is almost certain that there will be no change today from ten years ago.
By that time, the soldiers of the Qi Dynasty were still on the verge of collapse, unable to resist at all.
The Jin soldiers' iron pagoda and guaizi horse can be invincible along the way and level the entire Qi Dynasty.
When the time comes, not to mention that the ancestral laws cannot be retained, I am afraid that all the royal family members and important ministers will be kidnapped to the Kingdom of Jin to perform the sheep-raising ceremony, and spend their lives in shame and anger.
The people of the Qi Dynasty who became slaves of the subjugated country could only live a life worse than a slave under the butcher's knife and horse whip of the Jin soldiers.
Is there a certain amount of wealth in the world?
At that time, the wealth of the world will no longer be certain, because a large amount of wealth will be destroyed, leaving only ruins and corpses to people.
…
"Push forward!"
Li Hongyun gave an order, and the soldiers holding flintlock guns began to advance in an orderly manner.
After rounds of intensive shooting, the few iron pagodas had been completely wiped out.
The Iron Buddha's combat method is that they can only move forward and cannot retreat, and their expensive armor and strict training mean that their number is very rare.
The history of the flintlock that eliminated the knight class was repeated here at an extremely fast speed.
The situation of Kaizima was better. After the heavy casualties in the first round, the Kaizima in the back row realized that something was wrong.
Even the heavily armored mass murderer Iron Buddha has been destroyed, so what's the point of them continuing to charge forward?
With the retreat of Guaizima, the entire Niuzhuji Jin soldiers also began to have a chain reaction, abandoning their helmets and armor and running northward desperately.
As Li Hongyun gave the order, the soldiers holding flintlock guns began to advance slowly but methodically. Yu Jiaxuan and the heavy cavalry of the Feihu Army, who had been waiting so hard, finally moved out.
"rush!"
With an angry shout, the cavalry of the Flying Tiger Army chased the fleeing Jin soldiers like wind and thunder!
