Valley Emperor

The genius remembers the address of this site in one second: (apex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! Unfortunately, even if they found it, they avoided it, but in such an open area, they simply had nowhere to hide. !

And they faced too many grenades. These grenades were not just grenades thrown by the grenadiers of the 1st Infantry Regiment, but grenades thrown by a large number of ordinary musketeers!

There were at least hundreds of grenades thrown out in this round. The explosion of hundreds of grenades instantly killed and wounded hundreds of the Ming army's front row.

And this is not over, because the small wall is a continuous wave of grenades flying out!

Being attacked by such a violent grenade, Rao is the most elite superintendent in the Ming army, and it is inevitable that it will collapse!

They were able to carry the fierce artillery fire and even the musket fire of the fake Tang thief army and rushed up. Even if they fell behind in the counter fire, they did not retreat, but took the initiative to launch the final charge, but this round of grenades The attack made this Ming army training army lose the last trace of courage to fight!

They collapsed!

In the sound of explosions and screams, countless Ming soldiers turned and ran back!

Seeing that the third wave of his own attack was also defeated, this made Cheng Hongan, the former commander of the army, look ashen, but although his face was quite ugly, he also knew that these trainings had already done his best.

The three waves of attack before and after were only training troops in the place under his command. It was normal for them to be defeated because they could not bear casualties. What he did not expect was that the total number of troops in the third wave of training was no less than 7,000, and they were defeated like this. Neat.

Originally, he thought that even if he couldn't take it down in one go, he would still be able to break through the first line of defense of the bandit army, but he didn't expect that the bombs of the pseudo-Tang bandit army were so sharp, and there were so many. Instantly suffered heavy casualties, and finally led to collapse.

Flower bomb, he knows, even the troops under him are equipped!

After all, the grenade of the Tang Army is not too high-tech, but it is just an iron shell filled with gunpowder, and then ignited and thrown out with an arquebus. All can be imitated, and naturally this bomb can also be imitated.

However, there is too much gunpowder required for these blooming bombs, and gunpowder is extremely expensive these days. Although Zhang Yue has scavenged the southern provinces, it is not easy to raise an army of so many people. Hand grenades Although this kind of thing is easy to use, there is not so much gunpowder that he can waste.

And the new army of supervisors also knew that their teacher, only the so-called grenadiers in the Datang Army were equipped with these grenades, so the new army of supervisors only selected a few musketeers to be equipped with grenades.

The generals who supervise the new army guessed well. It is true that only grenadiers in the Datang Army will always have grenades, but at critical moments, especially in defensive operations, the Datang Army likes to directly let ordinary infantrymen. Also use grenades!

Used to strengthen the defense during defensive operations!

Being able to do this, of course, has a great relationship with the Tang Dynasty's acquisition of Guangdong as a sea port. After Guangdong's sea port, especially after the opening of Guangzhou and Lianzhou ports, strategic materials such as sulfur and saltpeter are almost Procurement can be opened up, and as long as there is enough money, large-scale purchases can be made.

At the same time, the gunpowder manufacturing equipment developed in the young army camp also greatly reduced the production cost of gunpowder, and at the same time greatly increased the output!

Today, the mechanical production of gunpowder used in the Tang Dynasty has reduced the production cost by at least half of the previous manual production, and the output has also increased exponentially.

Otherwise, it would not be able to meet the increasing consumption of gunpowder in the Tang Dynasty.

The current Datang Dynasty, the army and the navy, have more and more demand for gunpowder every day. If there is no technological improvement to increase production and reduce costs, the Datang Dynasty even has channels to import raw materials, but they can't afford it. what!

It is a pity that the current Ming army is still in a situation where it cannot be used!

They have a lot of guns, but the technology and production of gunpowder have not been able to keep up, resulting in an extreme shortage of gunpowder, so although they also know that grenades are a good thing, they can only be small batches of equipment, as for more, But it is unlikely.

Wang Chaohong's forward troops, this time the interception operation, expected an extremely cruel battle, otherwise Hao Bainian would not have sent the only reorganized First Infantry Regiment under his command.

Therefore, the supply of various ammunition materials is also oversupplied!

There are as many as 8,000 grenades carried by Wang Chaohong. Basically, each infantryman carries two on his waist. So many grenades are enough for the Ming army to drink a pot.

It took Cheng Hongan a lot of time to re-contain and organize the training troops where they had retreated!

Fortunately, they are active offensive operations, and their main force of the new army has not moved, so they are lined up in the rear to guard against it! Therefore, the opposing pseudo-Tang thieves can only rely on the geographical advantage to defend and not dare to attack. If they dare to leave the turtle shell and take the initiative to fight back, then Cheng Hongan doesn't mind blasting the upper side with artillery first, and then let the new army under his command go up to fight. An upright line battle!

Relying on several times the strength of his own side, he is sure to win!

However, the pseudo-Tang thief army can't come out!

But this also gave him a plan to calmly contain the defeated soldiers!

After re-accommodating the defeated soldiers, Cheng Hongan discovered that the three attacks before and after actually cost him no less than 3,000 people!

Although all the losses were local training, it was enough to make his heart hurt!

Now there are only two types of troops under Zhang Yue's subordinates, one is the direct line supervisor, and the other is a training army organized by local recruits. Needless to say, the superintendent has cost Zhang Yue countless efforts and military expenses.

However, even if it is a local military training, it is not comparable to the old guard soldiers!

The difference between the two is actually only the difference between the direct line and the collateral line, but the organization and tactics are actually relatively unified, but the equipment and treatment of the supervisor are better than those of the training army.

Although the three attacks failed, but for this sake, the battle cannot be given up halfway!

After all, Cheng Hongan couldn't go down the river now, and it was also difficult for him to escape quickly under the entanglement of the enemy's cavalry. He had no choice but to fight hard.

After the failure of the three attacks in the morning, Cheng Hongan did not rush to launch the fourth attack, but let the soldiers cook food. After a lunch and rest for two hours, the fourth attack was launched.

In this attack, Cheng Hongan is no longer the same as before, simply using the place to train the army.

The three defeats before and after have already caused the morale of those training soldiers to plummet. If they are forced to go alone, I am afraid they will mutiny!

So this time, Cheng Hongan dispatched the most elite supervising new army under his command, with two guards totaling more than 5,000 supervising new army, and at the same time, he also trained more than 3,000 carefully selected soldiers in better condition. .

And he didn't let those training troops go ahead as cannon fodder. He always had to worry about the thoughts of the training generals. The first three times just letting the training troops attack, it already made the training generals have great resentment. Now If the training army is still used as cannon fodder, and the superintendent follows behind, I am afraid that there will be a mutiny before the fight.

Although he Cheng Hongan was the former commander of the Overseer, he was also the commander of these trainers. Although he could not treat everyone equally, it was not good to be too partial!

So this time, the two guards who supervise the new army are in charge of the left wing and the middle, and the training army is in charge of the right wing, ready to launch an attack from all three at the same time!

When Cheng Hongan launched the fourth offensive, the sound of artillery on both sides became intensive again. The field artillery of the Ming army desperately wanted to suppress the artillery positions of the Tang army, while the artillery positions of the Tang army wanted to give those who were attacking the Ming army. The infantry caused more casualties!

Under the flying shells~www.wuxiaspot.com~ the casualties began to appear densely again!

When these Ming troops rushed up, they would find that there were corpses lying in front of them, and those were the corpses of the Ming army who had fallen during the previous three waves of attacks!

In fact, many of them were not killed directly at the beginning, but were only injured, but when the two sides were at war, it was impossible for the Ming army to send people to treat them, and it was impossible for the Tang army to brave the artillery fire of the Ming army to come out to treat these Ming army. wounded soldier.

Therefore, many wounded soldiers of the Ming army died in battle because of the deterioration of their wounds and excessive blood loss!

Only a few of the lucky ones who were slightly injured and still able to act finally returned to the array of the Ming army.

Now, when they saw more than 2,000 corpses, many of them still had broken hands and legs, and their bodies were incomplete, many Ming soldiers with poor psychological quality could vomit on the spot.

This is also in winter, the temperature is low, if it is a hot summer, I am afraid that there will be bursts of stench.

However, despite this, they were still slowly approaching under the leadership of Ming army officers at all levels. At this time, they also changed their tactics. In order to avoid too many shelling casualties in the process of advancing, they were relatively scattered, and not The phalanx was advancing slowly as before, but it started to trot!

Although there will inevitably be chaos in such a formation, but more than 8,000 people are besieging a mountain, and they don't care about any formation, and being able to rush up to melee is their goal!

Three hundred meters, two hundred meters, one hundred and fifty meters!

They have finally reached this distance. As long as they work harder, they will be able to rush through this mere 150 meters and then break into the first line of defense of the Pseudo-Tang Bandit Army!
