I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 70: The collapse of the Chinese army

"Don't panic, line up to meet the enemy."

Xue Guiren, who was on the front line, shouted that he was calm and did not order to retreat.

At this time, the retreat was ordered to speed up, and the small broken boats and pontoons along the river could transport a few hundred people at most to retreat at a time.

If the soldiers who resisted in front knew that the people in the back were retreating, they would fight even more unintentionally.

In addition to this, the whole army should not be ordered to fight for it. After all, in terms of the number of troops, they are not at a big disadvantage, and reinforcements will arrive at any time later.

If they can persist until reinforcements come, they will be able to rely on their strength to carry out a full-scale offensive in other directions.

Under the command of Xue Guiren, other generals ordered to line up one after another, and tens of thousands of Qing soldiers acted tremblingly under the scolding of the generals.

When encountering an ambush, the soldiers will feel more panic in their hearts no matter whether they are in an advantage or not. After all, as a soldier, it is actually difficult for them to distinguish whether their side is dominant or inferior.

The Ming army approached, and the two armies were less than 150 meters together. The Ming army's flintlock unit stopped, and then more than 3,000 people aimed at the Qing army and started a long-range volley.

At this distance, the Qing army could only be beaten. The few archer troops couldn't shoot so far, and couldn't fight back.

With a shot, the Qing army fell nearly a hundred people.

Although the hit rate of flintlocks at this distance is not high, the Qing army is too dense in this small area.

"Charge, rush over them and it's over."

Xue Guiren yelled, and then the Qing army began to approach them actively. They had to fight hand in hand to have a chance to win.

Liu Liangzuo from the rear had already received the news of the strike, but at this time the tens of thousands of troops in front had already exchanged fire with the Ming army, and he had to continue to send troops to support him.

Relying on the superiority of troops in the past, the troops sent have a chance to win the battle. But if you retreat now, the ten thousand troops across the river will be in danger.

Abandoned son is not so abandoned, but it is one-third of his troops, giving up is really painful.

At this time, the situation on the battlefield is difficult to be controlled by someone, and can only continue to follow the laws of the battlefield.

The Qing army rushed several tens of meters, the Ming army fired a second round of volleys, and another piece of the Qing army fell.

Qian Sule, who was watching the battle with a telescope in the distance, was stunned. He now truly felt the impact of advanced weapons on the war.

Whether it's a flintlock pistol used to kill the enemy, or a telescope for observation in your hand, it can play a great role if you use it well.

This telescope was allocated to them by Wu Changqing. After the glass technology was made, the manufacture of the telescope was suddenly much easier. Currently, in Wu Changqing's army, there is one general above the battalion commander.

"Tsk tusk tusk, how can I get close to them with ordinary swords and spears?"

Xiong Rulin put himself under the command of the Qing army, thinking about what should be done in this situation?

"Probably, you can only rely on the advantage of superior forces to attack from the flanks, or use cavalry to attack at a high speed. Other than that, this kind of force really has no weaknesses."

Qian Sule said that if there are a large number of artillery or cavalry, it can still pose some threats to such flintlock troops. It is too difficult to defeat this flintlock army by relying on ordinary pawns holding swords and spears.

Before they rushed to the front, they suffered two rounds of shooting. About hundreds of people were lost. The casualty rate has reached 10%, which is close to the collapse line of the soldiers.

The current Qing army is also trying to launch the main attack from the two wings, but the two wings of the Ming army are Dong Tianbao's more than 5,000 people and Qian Sule's more than 7,000 people.

Such a strong line of defense is not so easy to break through.

When the troops on the two wings met hand-to-hand, they immediately fell into entanglement. The Qing army in the Central Army suffered a close-range third round of blows. The casualties of the Qing army in this round amounted to more than 1,500, which is more than the previous two rounds combined.

"Recoil."

Li Shaobin gave the order, and the generals blew offensive whistles.

After three rounds of salvos, more than 5,000 Chinese troops in the Qing court have almost collapsed. It's just that I rushed too fast at the beginning, and I couldn't stop the car.

The well-trained main force of the Ming army immediately moved forward with a gun, forming a forest of swords to stab the Qing army.

At this time, they showed their elite side. They don't just rely on long-range shooting to bully people. In fact, they spend very little time in continuous shooting on weekdays, and most of their time is in continuous large-scale bayonet battles.

Unfortunately, they have never had the opportunity to use this kind of training results before.

And now, the heroism of the Qing army gave them a chance.

The heroic Qing army also paid the price for their bravery.

The neat bayonet stabbed all at once, and the Qing army in front had no room to escape. Whether it is forward, left or right, it is a bayonet, and it will die.

The only way to survive is to retreat. Driven by instinct, many Qing soldiers collapsed and turned and began to retreat.

In fact, as long as they continue to move forward and stabbing the Ming army in a life-for-life manner, it can also cause a lot of damage to the Ming army.

However, they did not dare to do so. Killing the enemy and keeping one's own life is obviously important to keep one's own life.

As a matter of fact, this almost life-for-life charging mode made the Ming army soldiers also afraid to die in their hearts.

The formation is so dense, there is no room for dodge, and military regulations stipulate that you are not prepared to dodge, and life and death depend on luck. This puts a lot of psychological pressure on the soldiers.

However, they were afraid to return, but their legs continued to move forward.

They have done this kind of training countless times. At this time, they can only do mechanical assassination and forward movements in line with the pace of their comrades. They must not do anything else.

When training on weekdays, even if they walk a little higher than the others and affect the formation, they will be beaten. Under severe punishment, these soldiers have formed an instinctive reaction, that is, they must keep consistent actions with their comrades and must not make mistakes.

When all the soldiers have such thoughts, this army will become very terrifying.

In the Qing army's view, the troops in front of them seemed to have no fear, as they were not afraid of life and death like walking dead.

This kind of aura brought great psychological pressure to the Qing army and completely destroyed their psychological defense. They didn't want to fight a group of corpses.

The Qing army completely collapsed and then began to flee backwards, which immediately panicked the Qing army on the left and right wings. Originally, they only needed to pay attention to the enemy directly in front. However, after the collapse of the Chinese army, they must always guard against enemies from nearby and guard against being flanked.

The biggest problem of being pinched is not that the number of enemy troops is too large, but that the formation of one's own side is not well arranged, and the contact area that needs to be defended is too large.

All the troops are afraid of being flanked. Liu Liangzuo's troops are not elite, and they are even more afraid of this disadvantaged situation. It's okay to let them fight a tailwind. They want to turn defeat into victory in the face of adversity. They don't have that ability yet.

After seeing the collapse of the Chinese army, the generals on the left and right wings immediately began to organize a retreat, leaving a small group of people to continue to entangle the Ming army, and they flee with a large army.
