After seeing Wang Jingzhong, the sergeant looked at the newly appointed battalion commander and reported to Wang Jingzhong what happened. Of course, the veteran also knew what happened. He turned his head and whispered: "Battleman, it really doesn't need to be like this. It's still very risky. If you can come to our Taiwan Marine Department, it means that the lord has believed you again."

"Prepare to start fighting." Several young men were knocked down by the opposite side. Someone was hit in the chest. A large amount of blood gushed out, soaking large areas of military uniforms. It was probably impossible to save them. More people were shot in different places. They made muffled groans and only shouted when they insisted that they were carried down by medical soldiers for treatment.

Now Hutchison has a good job in debridement, bandaging and sterilization, but it still cannot eliminate wound infection. Whether these young men can survive depends on their resistance and luck.

Wang Jingzhong saw that the musketeers of two and a half squadrons of the entire ship were already in place, the drums were ringing and the flag was spreading, and the soldiers in the first row were ready, three-stage strikes, shooting, squat, loading, shooting, shooting...

Everything is extremely familiar and has no hindrance. Compared with the navy's lack of confidence, the army soldiers are obviously more trustworthy and relying on.

A squadron of jumping soldiers was waiting behind, and the musketeers reserved some passages for them.

They were all covered in heavy armor, but it would not prevent them from jumping over the side of the ship and jumping to the opposite warship to fight.

These are all young men over twenty to thirty, with a total of less than two thousand people in the entire army of more than 100,000 people. They are smaller than the number of Lancers. Only the most determined, outstanding martial arts, courageousness, and strong physiques are qualified to be jumping soldiers.

Their military ranks may not be high, but they are staying in the ranks of war soldiers. As long as they are transferred to serve, they will easily be promoted several levels within half a year, because everyone knows that soldiers who are always ready for any strong enemy to fight are the most trustworthy group of men.

The officers of each ship issued orders, and the musketeers of each squadron were lined up. The sailing warship was about 46 meters long. Most of the musketeers of the squadron stood on the side, and the rest of the squadrons stood behind. Jiang Kui and others were very clear when presiding the drill that the first round of strikes and successive strikes must be caused to the opponent not be able to raise their heads, and the strongest killing should be caused in the shortest time.

From collision to catching up with the other party and catching up with the quilt to the end of the array, it was actually only less than three minutes. In this short time, each ship had knocked down soldiers, and the losses were not serious, and the proportion was smaller than during training.

After all, during training, each ship exaggerated the enemy's abilities a little, and now it seems that it is not just exaggerating.

The Dutch in this era could not play muskets well, and the hit rate after being fired was a bit scary. No wonder the Europeans later adopted the smoothbore gun tactic of queuing to kill. In fact, the main reason was that the lethality of muskets in this era was really scary, with better gunpowder, stronger kinetic energy, rifling, post-loading bullets, fixed-loading bullets... Everything is slowly improving.

"Rise the gun!"

With the order of the sergeant chief, guns were heard from all the warships.

Unlike the Dutch clamps, the Hutchison Merchants Army has all fixed flintlocks, and the dragon head is pulled up. As long as the flint is fired and Mars splashes into the medicine pool, then the medicine will burn and cause the medicine to fire, and the lead balls that are stuffed into the barrel will burst out...

"put!"

Almost at the same time, the first row of commanders on the four ships issued orders to release them.

All the flag bearers waved the flag down and added the command. The gunmen in the first row had been anxious. Just now, the Dutch kept firing muskets. When they saw a partner falling down, they were already furious.

"Bang!"

Nearly 200 muskets fired at the first time!

On the swaying and shaking ship, small firearms are difficult to deploy, and the distance is too close, so you have to be careful to collapse and hurt your own people. Therefore, both sides can only use individual firearms. The Dutch on the opposite side uses a clamp. Although flintlocks appeared in Europe thirty years ago, it was still a long time from appearance to assembly. Moreover, the East India Company was overseas and assembly was even later. Only a few flintlocks arrived in Asia from Europe, and they also stayed in Batavia to wait for imitation. At present, the personnel on the ship still used a clamp.

For these Dutch people, this time it was also an eye-opener.

The Hutchison soldiers on each sailboat were lined up in an orderly line, with dozens of muskets firing together, and there were no complicated operations such as burning ropes. There were at least a dozen steps to place the flintlock gun, which was indispensable. The flintlock gun had to be simplified by half of the effort, and it was well-trained and loaded in advance. When the command was made, the projectiles burst out.

The power and momentum of nearly 200 muskets were imagined. From south to north, loud noises came from the four ships. The sound was too loud, but the sound of several nearby cannons was about to be covered. The muzzles kept spraying out flames. After the orange sparks, the lead balls were flying out, one after another, and almost instantly, all of them were released in the first round.

The gunman who had the first shot squatted down as soon as he was released. However, before squatting down, they still looked at the opposite side.

Too close together!

The two ships rely on the help, and the people on the opposite side lined up on the deck, with only a few steps away. Jumping over the side of the two ships and rushing two steps was where the Dutch were ready to face the enemy. Even if it was not a volley, a single shot would probably hit. Although the hit rate of the smoothbore gun was astonishingly low, it was a distance of dozens or hundreds of steps. Where could these steps go?

The Dutch were also firing muskets, but the East India Company did not have much reserve of muskets, and the launch of the mesh guns was complicated and complicated. The sailors did not have the habit of placing a lineup to place them. Many people in front set off guns. When they started to load, the people in the back were still crowded in crowds and could not fire.

Even so, when the merchant army was in line, nearly ten people were knocked down in each ship, and the casualties were much higher than ordinary land formation battles.

The same person, if you are pulled to the land to fight, Hutchison will not have so many casualties, or the distance is too close, the shooting rate is high and not as good as dodging.

When I was secretly looking, I only saw blood bursting everywhere on the opposite side. Many Dutch people were shot in their chests. Large pieces of blood were not gushed out, but as if they were sprayed out. At such a close distance, musket bullets penetrated into people's bodies with huge kinetic energy. The damage was much higher than the penetration injury caused by bullets in later generations. Almost the person who hit the chest, face, abdomen, there were Dutch sailors who fell to the ground and died after being shot. They had almost no screams and wails. The distance was too close. After the bullets were shot into their bodies, the internal organs were instantly shattered, which instantly caused people to lose consciousness and die within a few minutes.

The entire Dutch security front was instantly flattened!

But before it was finished, the musketeers in the first row squatted down, and the second row continued to be beaten. After the second round of the fight, more Dutch people fell down, and then the third row was beaten. After the three rounds, there were not many people standing on the opposite deck.

The dead were all over the ground, the pungent smell of sulfur and blood spread out under the sea breeze, and there were rolling serious and minor injuries everywhere. The dead were lying on the ground, with blood flowing under the body. The dense crowds of people on the entire deck were now few who could continue to stand.

After the three rounds were released, the first round of the gunman had already loaded, but he did not rush to stand up and beat him up, but instead made several passages with the rest of his comrades.

A squadron of jumping soldiers passed through the passage quickly.

Everyone looked at them with their eyes, including the Dutch people who were still chasing the enemy.

They were fooled by the muskets, and at this time they could deeply understand what the array volley of the muskets was, why was it so powerful and so many friends killed. The three-wheeled volley just now was like a storm, and it also killed and injured most of them like autumn wind swept the fallen leaves. At this time, no one had any confidence to stop the Chinese from jumping. However, after the terrible nightmare, even more terrifying situations appeared. In front of these Dutch people, jumping soldiers wearing multiple layers of iron armor, iron helmets, iron masks, and protective gear appeared.

The little red-haired Dutch, who just said he wanted to take off the Chinese scalp as a spoil, was already shocked. His whole body was trembling, and his hand holding a short axe was shaking, and the axe in his hand was shaking.

At this time, no officers came out to call their subordinates to resist. Everyone knew that resistance was futile and could not be an opponent at all.

Europeans are not unfamiliar with heavy armored warriors. In their long medieval times, the knights were the ones who dominated the battlefield. There were few or even insignificant roles of civilians. Civilians could only be rebels. For example, Robin Hood, who was good at using bows and arrows, the role of archers was also a consumable in the orthodox knight battle. The one who could decide was the knights wearing heavy armor and covered with iron cans. On the battlefield, hundreds of civilians were only a part of the escape against these iron armored knights. The only one who could deal with the knights was the knight.

As soon as the jumping warrior appeared, he was already the first to win, and his skills were of course very strong. This generation of veterans did not worry about other people's affairs every day, they were just training.
