The Right Battalion of the Taiping Infantry was a semi-firearm soldier. When the army was formed, Zhou Shixiang gathered all the firearms in the army to the Right Battalion, and formed the 2 Brigade Gunnery with the gunmen from the original camp as the backbone. Book www.vodtw.com

The fire guns of this era are all front-loaded guns, relying on the match rope to trigger the drugs in the medicine room and then shoot the guns to kill the enemy. The firing speed of this fire gun is extremely slow, and its power is much smaller than that of later guns. However, Zhou Shixiang general Gunpowder has been improved into granules, and the amount of dispensing is set. The gunpowder carried by soldiers is prepared in a small packet of paper. When it is used, it is directly torn and poured into the medicine room. All or insufficient (too much) quantity, resulting in weakened power and explosion. More importantly, he was a soldier in his previous life, and he knew how to maximize the power of the fire-gun phalanx.

According to Zhou Shixiang's guidance, the new army's 2 brigade gunmen changed their previous combat mode. They formed several rows according to the officer's order. To the second team, the second team handed them the loaded gunpowder and lead bullets, and then they took the loaded guns from the third team, and so on, so that the gunmen in the front row were forever. It is guaranteed that the fire cannons can be fired continuously, and only when they are heavily killed by the enemy will the second and third rows and the queues behind them be replenished.

The Taiping Army's gunpowder was very limited. The Xinhui battle basically exhausted the whole army's medicine. If it hadn't been seized from the Qing army's drug storehouse, Chen Ce later gave it a few hundred catties. When they attacked Xiangshan, the Taiping Army's fire Guns and fire sticks are generally not used at all. Until the Battle of Lutouhe broke out, the amount of gunpowder of the Taiping Army remained at a low level. The most optimistic estimate of the military commander's office is to ensure that the battle of Lutouhe will be finished, and then the two brigade gunmen will no longer be able to participate in the battle. , because there is no medicine to fight.

In order to solve the problem of the shortage of medicines, Zhou Shixiang had already sent people to Macau, and wanted to buy gunpowder from Folang Machine, and at the same time to see how their guns were different from those of the Taiping Army. , then order a batch. If they are all front mounted arquebuses. Then there is no need to buy or buy less, and instead hire some firearms repair technicians from Macau.

Zhou Shixiang didn't want to be controlled by others. He intends to open a military factory belonging to the Taiping Army in Xiangshan, and can change the front-loaded arquebus to the rear-loaded gun by himself. At the same time, he must obtain enough pig iron and gunpowder. In the future, these two things are likely to be Like food, it became the reason for the Taiping army to send troops, and it was also an important material to support the Taiping army to fight.

......

Tie Yi was the chief officer of the Right Battalion of the Infantry. He is also a miner who buried medicine, and he knows the power of gunpowder. Therefore, he attached great importance to firearms. In order to train the 2 brigade gunmen as soon as possible, he trained the gunmen day and night. However, when he found that most of the soldiers could not even tell the difference between left and right, let alone teach them tactical drills, Tie Yi took the common problem of the army of this era - corporal punishment to beat those soldiers who could not learn.

The officers who teach the recruits every day have whips in their hands. Once they find that the soldiers cannot follow the queue or fill the medicine on time, they will be beaten mercilessly, and they will even be tied and executed in front of the entire battalion of soldiers. Soldiers who have not changed their minds have been beaten up.

The Anjun envoy of the Infantry Right Battalion reported this situation to the military commander's mansion. I hope the military commander's office can stop this cruel training method. However, after Zhou Shixiang learned the specific reason for the corporal punishment, there was no good way to train those recruits, so he acquiesced to Tie Yi's method. As long as Tie Yi uses corporal punishment at the same time, it is best to give the soldiers some rewards, which can improve their enthusiasm for training. As for the unlucky guys who were beaten and disabled, they were placed in the former cottage, and they were raised by the Taiping Army in the future.

Zhou Shixiang, don't be an idiot, a idiot can't survive on the battlefield. The existence of a fool will also make more people die with him.

It turns out. Hard work is far less impressive than being beaten. At first, at least a hundred gunmen were beaten every day. Later, only occasionally a hapless guy was brought out and beaten.

People are so strange, they can become sperm after being beaten.

Do not learn to be beaten. Even the ruthless training of being beaten finally created the gun soldiers that Zhou Shixiang needed. At least in his opinion, the gun soldiers of the 2nd brigade at least have the appearance of later warlord troops.

After crossing the river, the 2 brigade gunmen kept their formation in order. When faced with the cavalry of the Han army who rushed over, although they were also very scared and their legs were trembling subconsciously, no one was at a loss. There is no thought of running back. They just stared at the officers at their respective lines, waiting for each other's gestures and orders to act.

This is a kind of inertia, and it is also a silent silence of last resort - they are really afraid of being beaten.

........

Like the rest of the troops under the Peace South, some of Tong Erhan's flag soldiers were also equipped with fire cannons. This fire cannon was the three-eye cannon used by the Ming army in Liaodong. The three-eyed gun is used as a weapon to smash the opponent with the powerful momentum of the war horse. One shot will definitely break the brain.

However, they have already rushed for nearly a hundred steps, but the Taiping army on the opposite side is still motionless. There is no Taiping army screaming in panic, and no one is scared to open the gun, which makes Tong Erhan's heart clouded. Listening to the old man in the banner, if the Ming army can rush in within a hundred paces of the Qing army without firing a gun, and can keep the most basic formation in order, it is a strong army, and it will definitely kill the Qing army. The 8,000 Tianxiong soldiers under Lu Xiangsheng, the premier of the five provinces in the Ming Dynasty, were such strong soldiers. In recent years, the old thieves under Li Dingguo and Sun Kewang's leading army have this ability in the Ming army.

"Release the gun!"

Tong Erhan, who had a bad premonition, shouted loudly and wanted to disrupt the formation of the Taiping army. Suddenly, more than 100 flag soldiers armed with three-eyed guns immediately put their guns on the Taiping troops.

After a burst of scattered gunshots, it was vaguely seen that dozens of Taiping troops had fallen, but soon the Taiping troops behind filled up the vacancies. The body was also dragged down quickly.

"Put! Let go! Let go!"

The three-eyed gun can be fired three times. After the three rings, the battlefield is full of white smoke, and the Taiping army on the opposite side is constantly falling. However, their queue is not chaotic at all, and even the vacancies have been filled.

"Damn Taiping bandits really aren't afraid of death!"

Tong Erhan cursed, the three-eyed gun failed to make the Taiping army in chaos, so he could only bite the bullet and lead the flag soldiers straight ahead. Out of the corner of his eye, Hu Qili's superintendent has also been pressed.

......

The sound of the Han army flag made Tie Yi's eyelids twitch, and he kept waiting. He kept in mind what the military commander said to him - "If you put the Qing Yao in the fight, don't be afraid of them. Our fire guns are not very powerful. If you don't put the Qing Yao in the fight, you cannot effectively kill the Qing Yao. Although the gunmen under your command are decent, they have no actual combat experience. We have few medicines on weekdays, and none of them shoot a few guns. If the Qing Yao is not put into the fight, I don’t know how many guys will shoot the guns to the sky. Well. Only by putting in the fight can we make the Qing Yao hurt and make them afraid. Don't forget, we have 1200 shotguns, how many Qing Yao have? "

Tie Yi held his breath, and the artillery team that was transferred to support him was going to bombard those Han flag cavalrymen. He didn't answer either. He wants to prove to his colleagues in the Taiping Army, to the military commander, and to the Qing Yao that he is capable of the right battalion of the infantry!

The arrogant Han army inlaid with blue flag finally rushed to 70 paces away from the Taiping army front, and the horse's flag soldiers could see clearly, which made Tie Yi, who was so heartbroken, order to fire.

"Fire!"

After hearing the order to fire, the gunmen went down and took a breath, mechanically raised the gun's mouth and lit the fire.

"Boom!"

The sound of the Taiping Army's guns finally sounded, so dense that people couldn't hear the front and back, and the position was blank and filled with smoke.

The dense sound of gunshots did not stop at all. The rising gunpowder also blocked everyone's sight, and no one knew how the Han army flag was hit.

The dense sound of gunshots also made Suna, who was watching the battle, frown: How could the Taiping bandit's firearm be kept on?

With the sound of gunshots, the Green Battalion also rushed over, but instead of directly attacking the Taiping army's formation like the arrogant flag soldiers, they moved the archers to the front, trying to use their arrows to kill the Taiping army's formation. Then the whole army entered.

"shoot!"

After hearing the officer's order, more than 300 archers and horses of the pacesetter took out arrow branches from the quiver behind and headed towards the Taiping Army on the opposite side.

"Vertical shield!"

The players in the left battalion of the infantry did not hesitate to raise their shields above their heads to shield the arrows for the gunmen behind.

The pacesetters were still a hundred paces away from the Taiping Army, and the Taiping Army's guns could not hit them, but they were struggling to shoot arrows in the past. Because they couldn't aim directly at the opponent, the archers of the pacesmen could only shoot arrows at the head of the Taiping army. With the force of the projectile, the arrow branches fell from the direction of the Taiping army to achieve the purpose of killing.

There were only more than 300 archers under the supervision of the Qing army, far less than the gunmen who faced the Taiping army. In addition, there were guards from the left camp of the infantry army. The arrows of the Qing army did not cause damage to the Taiping army. Because of the distance, 90% of the arrows fell into the open space in front of the Taiping Army. Only a very small number of arrows fell into the Taiping Army, but only a few arrows were shot. The sergeant's arm or shoulder can be pulled out easily. This effect is far worse than the three-eyed gun of the Han army flag.

"Order the whole army to attack!"

Hu Qili saw that the archers could not suppress the Taiping army, and the Han army flag on the left flank fought fiercely again. Although he could not see how the Han army flag was fighting due to the smoke of gunpowder, past experience told him that the Han army flag was mostly successful. In order not to underestimate the Manchu soldiers watching the battle, he ordered his own soldiers to blow horns to attack.

"Come on, rush through the firearms of the Taiping bandits, they have no means!"

Lin Jinzhong was also eager to make contributions. He forgot the pain when the scar was healed, and desperately urged his battalions to charge towards the Taiping Army.

However, the fire guns of the Taiping Army continued to fire, and there was no sign of stopping. Whether it was on the left wing of the Han army flag or the green camp on the front, the sound of the guns like fried beans never stopped. The choking gunpowder smoke filled the entire battlefield, causing many people to have red eyes and tears.

Tong Erhan was lying on the back of the body of his dead mount, complaining for a long time. The heavy guns of the Taiping Army beat his subordinates to their knees, and what was even worse was that he didn't know when the guns were misfired. The sound of wailing and gunshots could be heard everywhere, which made Tong Erhan greatly regret his underestimation of the enemy. He originally thought that as long as he resisted a round of gunfire from the Taiping Army, he could easily dash into the opponent's line and chase the sheep, but it did not happen. They were slaughtered by the Taiping Army.

Tong Erhan regretted it, and even the living flag soldiers regretted it. If they had known that the Taiping bandits were so capable of fighting, they would not have killed this battle~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Suddenly, the sound of the Taiping army's guns finally stopped, and the remaining Han army flags The Taiping Army, who thought that the opponent's fire guns were finally misfired, but didn't want the black smoke, suddenly stepped back a few steps, and then a tiger squat gun and a pole gun were pushed to the front.

not good!

Tong Erhan sucked in a breath of cold air. He had seen the Ming army's squatting tiger cannons and pole guns. Those things fired lead and small iron bullets. Although they were not far away, they could kill people and horses within a hundred paces. is staggeringly scary.

Tong Erhan felt bitter, knowing that 80% of him would be carried by the Taiping army this time.

With the sound of cannons, the Han army flag soldiers without guns fell from their horses one after another, and the gun horses also screamed and jumped, and then fell to the ground weakly.

Tong Erhan was lying on the back of the horse's stomach and couldn't escape the fatal shot. His face was hit by a shot, and the whole face was like a sesame cake, full of lead.

More than a dozen Han army flag soldiers crawled back on the corpse, and then ran back desperately.

The Han army flag is over, and the green camp is not going to get better.

Under the rounds of shooting, the attacking pacesetters and battalion soldiers suffered heavy casualties. Hundreds of corpses just did not rush to the front of the Taiping Army. After the Taiping Army's artillery team moved out the tiger squat gun and the big pole gun, the Green Battalion had the will to attack. Collapsed instantly.

The artillery team of the Taiping Army roared out with dense projectiles to harvest the same dense crowd of Qing troops. As long as they hit the projectiles in the front, they could almost harvest people's lives.

Seeing the tragic state of the Qing army in front of them, Tie Yi and Ge Yi completely stopped worrying and are now invincible.

Hu Qili, who found that the Han army flag was over, was also dumbfounded. This time, he didn't need to order the retreat, and the pacesetters retreated by themselves. (To be continued.)
