However, Xie Hui, a veteran who has been following Wei Zheng from dozens of people to more than 100 thousand people, is still very awake and his head is not affected by facial expressions.
As 8 jin j is getting closer and closer to himself, a series of commands are followed from Xie Hui’s mouth.
"Men and women, we are dragging these post-Jin Jun around us to fight for the main force. No matter how many enemies we face, we can’t take a step back and give the post-Jin Jun a chance."
"I ordered a regiment of three musket battalions plus two regiments and one battalion to defend the circular array in four directions respectively. In addition to their respective light mortar companies, I will strengthen a medium mortar company for each battalion, and the remaining two battalions will coordinate and reinforce wherever there is danger …"
"Boom …" The first to launch a counterattack against the Dalai Lama was undoubtedly a medium-sized mortar with a range of more than one mile.
Nine mortars in each defensive direction sounds like a lot, but when a round of nine flowering shells is evenly dispersed to the battlefield with a width of one mile, it is like throwing a stone into the sea, which is very insignificant.
Nine crashing explosions and flowering bombs were fully prepared, which caused more than 10 casualties to the dispersed 8 Jin Army.
There is little difference between the results and the situation base in its three defensive directions.
Such a situation was just that Han Qi was still in a panic, just like taking stimulants instantly. No, behind him, the Tatar cavalry urged him to rush to the position of Tiger and Leopard Army with a musket in his hand.
Soon, the distance between the two armies was shortened from one mile to 200 paces, and the results achieved by each medium-sized mortar company of Tiger and Leopard Army were only more than 100 people, and even the fur of the attacking troops in Houjin did not hurt.
"The enemy is too cunning. Our mortars and their scattered formations didn’t achieve the desired results …" The face became more and more dignified. Teacher Xie Hui said to himself with a heavy tone.
The assistant teacher next to him directly asked with a full face of anxiety, "Teacher, do you have any good ideas?"
Xie Hui shook his head and answered, "The troops and strength of the Tatars are all false. The only thing we can do is to order the medium-sized mortar horses to fire at the Tatars’ cavalry. The light mortars fire at the musketeers’ horses … The musketeers in each battalion are ready to fight …"
Although the addition of dozens of light mortars failed to stop the attack pace of the Tatars and change the battle situation, as the enemy got closer and closer to the Tiger and Leopard Army, the accuracy of mortars became better and better, and the price paid by Jin Tatars became greater and greater.
When they successfully reach that musket range.
The attacking troops lost almost 200 musketeers and 100 Tatar cavalry in every direction.
At this time, if you don’t master Xie Huida’s military orders, the four directions will be followed by their respective battalion commanders, and the guns will explode like beans.
Xie Hui stared at his direction. As soon as the gun sounded more than 100 lead shots, he rushed to his opponent 150 paces away with the breath of death.
Directly opposite the musket array, a dozen musketeers were roared and hit by lead bullets before they came to react, and then they braved the blood and poured forward with a full face of unwillingness.
The death breath brought by the first round of lead shot has not dissipated, but the second round is that the third round of lead shot has already entered and followed to Tartar.
Although each round of gunfire can take away more than ten enemy lives, such losses are absolutely negligible for a Tatar with 2,000 offensive troops.
The musketeers who were attacked not only didn’t have the slightest intention of retreating or fearing, but the Tatars behind them drove faster and faster to attack the Tiger and Leopard Army.
It is obvious that these Han Chinese musketeers pose a threat to them far more than themselves.
One hundred and twenty paces, the mighty Tatars and Musketeers just rushed here with lead bullets, and the deputy teacher was full of anxious voices and once again reached Xie Hui’s ear.
"Teachers can’t fight like this anymore … the enemy is too scattered, and our firearms are too scattered. On average, 15 lead bullets can shoot an enemy. The hit rate is really too low. We must find a way to make the enemy get together, or at least disperse us from the musketeers, so that the firearms in our hands can really exert their power."
"Otherwise, we will never be able to stop the attack of the surrounding Tatars …"
I heard that Xie Hui’s dignified face flashed off directly.
A face of approval answered, "You’re right, but we have so many troops. How can we win the fire? Are we going to expose all our troops in the first attack … unless …"
"Unless what?" Deputy teachers like suddenly grabbed a lifeline in despair to Xie Hui asked with expectation.
Xie Hui didn’t hesitate to answer directly, "Unless we shrink the defense line … our current defense line is to let Tatar build a military camp according to the size of 5,000 people. We don’t need such a big position at all."
"If we want to reduce the contraction of the defense line, we can form a circle, and our limited musketeers can get up and not enter, so the offensive troops of Tatar will continue to advance with the attack, and the formation will become more and more dense …"
"In this way, we will lose our room for manoeuvre, and our troops will be very dense. If the red cannon is still hidden in the hands of the Tatars, we don’t know that it can take away several of our lives with one shot?"
The deputy teacher directly ignored Xie Hui’s concern.
Then he said to Xie Hui, "Teachers, we can’t manage so much now … Let’s get through this difficulty first. I think we should shrink our defense immediately."
Chapter five hundred and sixty-six Not what it used to be.
Thousands of tiger and leopard troops marched back while shooting, and soon the four musket battalions retreated together.
In this narrow position, four musket battalions are densely blocked in four directions, and lead bullets are continuously fired outwards.
Equipped with more than 100 mortars in the army, it is like mushrooms after rain. The formation is high in the center, and the muzzle of its own dark hole fires flowering bombs at the surrounding Jin Jun.
At this time, Xie Hui can clearly feel that his goal of shrinking the defense line has been achieved.
After the defense line shrinks, the defense width on each side is reduced by half.
As a result, the number of offensive troops has not changed much. As they continue to advance, their offensive formations have become more and more dense.
At this moment, a musket battalion defends a line of defense, and each round of gunfire can take away 30 fewer lives. Not only that, but with the further shortening of the distance between the two armies, the results achieved by everyone are getting bigger and bigger.
But no matter how big the results are, there is no way to stop the superior troops.
After losing five or six hundred people in a row, more than 600 faces left have lost confidence and been replaced by fear. The Tatar musketeers finally rushed to their hands for the effective range of muskets.
The whole attack road was held down by the tiger and leopard army, and the Tatar did not miss this opportunity to fight back.
Hundreds of the various growls of the Tatar cavalry behind them have been frightened. Although the musketeers are full of fear of their fate, they are close behind them and threatened with death. They tremble, raise their hands and pull the trigger.
