Lord of Ming Dynasty

The British army’s three-stage shooting soldiers were all wiped out, and they also knocked down a dozen soldiers in the rear three-stage shooting line. The Chinese army’s flintlock guns have a long range, and the two sides are already within 100 meters. How could it be possible? Can't hit it?
The British Governor MacCongee was going to go berserk, three shots, or five shots, and the enemy killed his musket battalion, 360 people. Is this a war?
In addition to the previous bombardment, he had already lost [-] excellent local soldiers.
Hastily sent an order to the gray cattle phalanx behind to run forward immediately to supplement the British army behind.
Other cavalry and escorting infantry and archers stepped forward one after another, ready to protect the team.
And over there, the fusiliers of the Huaxia Army in the third row had already fired a volley. During the tense loading, the musketeers behind were also reloading. It will take a long time to reload, and they will not be able to make up for a while, so they can only act as the first row, facing the enemy's fire and reloading on the spot.
In the second paragraph, a battalion of the British army, which was supplemented, quickly began to fire in rotation.
After a wave of superb shooting, the third row of the Huaxia Army fell to the ground one after another. When it was time to shoot, the enemy was already shooting in the second row of the replacement queue. This time, the Huaxia Army killed and wounded 60 or 80 enemies, and their own losses Seven to [-] people, it can be said that the third row is useless.
Now there is no first, second and third platoons. The Huaxia Army has 400 people and less than 200 people left, and their own casualties are more than 50.00%.
The people who were ready automatically added to the first row and shot at the enemy's third row of arquebus gunners first. Only once more than 90 enemies fell, and the enemy's third row was almost useless.
The two sides fought like this, and by the third round, the Huaxia Army could only stand 60 or [-] people, and the entire battalion was also abolished, and it was rotated with another battalion behind.
And the enemy's incomplete number was only five or sixty people, still standing in place, and the third battalion behind quickly replenished.
The Huaxia Army rushed to shoot again. This time, 120 enemies fell solidly, and one row was wiped out. This time, the Huaxia Army did not carelessly, and faithfully executed three-stage shooting. The first row quickly and The second row changes positions, and the second row fires quickly. There is no need to prepare, because the bullets are in the barrel.
The second row hit the enemy's second row with five or sixty people injured, the enemy caused them fifty or sixty people's damage, the third row quickly filled up, one round of shooting, the enemy's second row was completely wiped out, and the enemy's second row was completely wiped out. Fifty or sixty people fell in the third platoon, and the entire battalion was almost destroyed.
Zhang Qiang looked at the battlefield silently in the distance, mainly paying attention to the British army, because the British army rushed too far forward, they rushed forward while fighting, dreaming of approaching the Huaxia army, using their principle of approaching 30 meters to fire open fire.
Chapter 4 and Four
But unfortunately, the Huaxia Army fired first and caught them off guard, so they had to fight back and shot at the Huaxia Army at a distance of 50 meters.
The distance of more than 50 meters is still maintained today. This is not because the British army was beaten up and did not work hard enough, but because they did not realize that the fighting method of the Huaxia Army is to stand ten meters away from the third row after the first row, and then In rotation, the second row stood one meter behind the first row, and the third row retreated one by one. After a round, the Huaxia army retreated ten meters as a whole, widening the distance from the enemy and reducing casualties.
Because the farther the distance is, the smaller the aim is for the arquebus. After these rounds, the Huaxia army retreated 50 meters as a whole, and distanced itself from the enemy. The British army advanced while fighting, and the other phalanx The same is true, but not so radical. Now they maintain a distance of 80 meters from the Huaxia Army. On the whole, the Huaxia Army has retreated about 20 meters.
On the battlefield full of gunpowder smoke, gunshots, screams, and bloody smell, the enemy did not notice this little move.
The whole battle was assigned by Zhang Qiang to Xuanyuan Longfei. Xuanyuan Longfei is quite a good guy. After a period of silence, he led troops many times and achieved good results. In the several major battles with the Qing army, his achievements were actually not that conspicuous, but he can be regarded as a relatively solid leader in leading troops, and he has indeed shown the qualities of an excellent general. The generals trained by the Huaxia Army themselves .
The Huaxia Army has a lot of elite soldiers, a lot of qualified officers, and a lot of mid-level generals who can complete tasks and accurately execute the tasks arranged by Zhang Qiang, but they can really be called independent generals Not many.
Xiao Fei counts as one, Ruan Jin counts as one, they are all able to fight, and have actual record, Hu Kui also counts as one, the others can only be promoted step by step in the group of the army, and become a qualified officer of the Huaxia Army That's all.
As the underachievers, they did a pretty good job, and as the second batch of successors of the Huaxia Army, they were considered outstanding.
But among the first batch of characters in the Huaxia Army, many of them turned into civil servants, such as Zhou Porridge, Mi Chun, and Milin, who grew up to be the mainstay of the Huaxia Army's civil servants. Wei Wuji, Jin Lin, and Wei Wuji were prominent in the military He has already become half a civil servant, and the position of governor is actually considered a civil servant in the Ming Dynasty.
The admiral can be regarded as a semi-militarized, semi-civilian general, while the superintendent is indeed a civilian leader.
In the official system of the Ming Dynasty, the commander-in-chief was the real leader of the generals. At the peak of the military generals, he was added to the ranks online, with various honorary titles on his head, and began to enjoy his old age.
For the first batch of people who followed Zhang Qiang to start a family, they were also Zhang Qiang's confidantes. Many of them were already in high positions, either to enjoy the blessings, or to become civil servants, and continue to fight for the cause of the Huaxia Army.
Xuanyuan Longfei was considered a late bloomer among the first batch of characters.
Originally Zhang Qiang wanted to personally command the battle, but after thinking about it, he was already the soul of the Huaxia Army. Even if he had any credit, it would be icing on the cake, and it would block the way for his subordinates to make progress. For a tyrant, this is a big Ji, it happened that Xuanyuan Longfei arrived with reinforcements, he thought about it, and let him take full charge of commanding the guard group to fight against the Portuguese coalition forces.
Zhang Qiang's new reduced bodyguards stayed behind the battlefield, about a mile away, on a high platform, and watched the battle with binoculars. In the future, he may personally command such battles and come to the battlefield in person, so there will be fewer opportunities.
He perfectly interpreted the role of the leader and commander of a wise and charming mount and slash player.
After taking over Zhang Qiang's command, Xuanyuan Longfei quickly adjusted his deployment, and the flintlock and musket formations of the two battalions that were almost disabled were quickly replaced by a gold reformed 2 arquebus formation, and a temporary formation A phalanx formed by the wounded and soldiers of the scout battalion, two phalanxes taking over the fighting of the two fusilier phalanxes in front.
Facing two British arquebus battalions of 360 people who had been annihilated, one was severely damaged, and one was disabled. The remaining British arquebus soldiers were not many British phalanxes. This 800-strong arquebus unit once again gave the enemy The remaining arquebus phalanx was hit hard, and then the British phalanx was broken, and the Indian phalanx was brought up. There were also British cold weapon combat troops on the left and right of the phalanx, a pikemen phalanx, a bow and arrow Phalanx.
The number of people is about 2000 people.
The personal guard of the British Governor McKongjie and the remaining 200 Musketeers who were beaten and disabled retreated to the rear for more than a mile, and most of them joined the covering troops behind.
At this time, the British no longer dared to play the brave game of approaching bravely and hitting the enemy at close range. They were 80 meters away from the Huaxia Army, which was far less than the incomplete phalanx of the Spaniards next to them. 20 meters, the commander of the Spanish army was pissed off.
Because when the British were attacked in the front, they were facing the two phalanxes formed by the scout battalion and the dragoon battalion. After the first round of shooting, they had a chance to fight back in the third round. After one round, a phalanx in front of them was defeated.
Whether it was the pikemen covering the side or the arquebus in the middle, they all dropped their weapons and retreated tens of meters. If it weren't for the cavalry of the pro-guards, the Spanish army would have collapsed after two heavy blows.
The first time was artillery, which cost them more than 100 people. The second time was this round of blows, which cost them more than 300 people. Now the Spanish phalanx has more than 200 people and only 700 people are left. .
Staying at 70 meters, although neither advancing nor retreating, the Huaxia Army cunningly retreated ten meters, thus forming a stepped formation.
It turned out that the British army was in front, and the Spanish army had to speed up their pace in order to maintain their formation. As a result, the Dutch were killed too badly, cowering, and fell behind them by ten meters, while the cunning Portuguese fell behind by ten meters again. Forming a stepped formation from right to left, and now from left to right, the Portuguese have become the forefront troops facing the Huaxia Army's arquebus phalanx on the other side.
Xuanyuan Longfei's command was very steady, maybe he was influenced by Zhang Qiang, he loved defense and counter attack.
Unhurriedly follow the rhythm of the enemy to fight.
Since the British army is willing to die, they will fight there first, and then fight against them one by one until the Portuguese who catch up behind them.
Now whether the Portuguese are willing or not, unintentionally or deliberately, anyway, I will hit you first now.
So the Portuguese were unlucky. Xuanyuan Longfei sent the Chase Cavalry Battalion plus elite Lancers and the only special shooter in the guard regiment, the Rifle Fusiliers. Dozens of rifled fusiliers, or riflemen, scatter furtively behind the formation, taking careful aim at their opponents.
60 meters, 70 meters, a long distance, but for them, whoever they want to hit, they will never hit the person next to them.
Chapter 4 and five sniper tactics
Seeing that his troops were not standing in the same line as his teammates, and were a little bit forward, Governor Schroeder secretly thought that something was wrong.
Other Thai and Western governors are far away from the mainland. He has lived in the land of Ming Dynasty for several years and has learned a lot of small thoughts from the Orientals. If you smash your own foot, if you are not careful, your troops will be in great trouble.
Although there were losses in the front, it was definitely not as heavy as the phalanxes of other countries. Because he is a human being, he saw that the formation of the Huaxia Army was spread out, so he immediately ordered his own phalanx to disperse a little. Let’s start, so the soldiers who are half a meter apart from each other are now one and a half meters apart from each other, not two meters apart from each other like the Huaxia Army, and about 1.5 meters apart from each other.
The reason why the Huaxia Army is so spaced is because their leader is Zhang Qiang, a traverser. He knows that the greater the spread, the lower the probability of being hit, but he does not dare to spread too much. If the enemy cavalry suddenly charges, some will cry , Such a distance, one order, can quickly gather. Judging from the training level of the Huaxia Army, as soon as the enemy's mind is up, his phalanx can quickly gather, and use bayonets to fight against the enemy's cavalry.
The gunfire will not stop because of Zhang Qiang's thoughts, nor will it stop because of Schroeder's deliberate learning, it will not stop because of the careful thinking of the coalition forces of various countries, and it will not stop because of their respective losses. The war is still being directed by both sides Under the adjustment of the official, it proceeded quickly.
Just after the adjustment, the Huaxia Army gave the Portuguese a big surprise.
The musketeer formation of the Huaxia Army was quickly adjusted to a phalanx of five rows and 120 columns. This adjustment was due to the fact that the enemy on the opposite side had lost too much, and the front line was not so wide. The Dutch had been disabled, although there were still more than 300 people fighting , But they were really not a threat anymore, so the right-wing Huaxia Army quickly pulled away the wounded soldiers, then reorganized their formation, and faced the Dutch and Portuguese queues at the same time.
In this way, the overall queue is widened and the formation becomes thinner, but the firepower is also more concentrated, and because the battle line is narrowed, the phalanx becomes more loose, which gives the super shooters room to play, they can hide behind The enemy can be hit in the third or fourth row, because the teammates in front leave enough space for bullets to pass through.
The Portuguese matchlock gunners kept falling to the ground, and the Huaxia Army's musketeers kept falling to the ground, but the Huaxia Army fell one, and the opponent fell two. Later, the Huaxia Army fell one, and the opponent fell three, four, until The Portuguese found that they could not regroup.
Because they found that the officers who commanded them kept falling down, and the replacing officers fell down again within less than a round of volleys. In the end, they didn't know how to act, and no one dared to take over the command.
So the volley turned into free fire, and the gunfire became chaotic, but the gunfire on the opposite side became more intensive, because the officers on the opposite side not only continued to fire the volley, but some people secretly hit the officers in the phalanx behind them.
