Although both the Chen State and the Qi State had large-scale military applications of firearms, and even artillery appeared, due to the limitations of firearm performance, cold weapons currently dominate.
In the cold weapon era, some weapons were prohibited from being owned by civilians.
It is worth mentioning that among things like swords, only knives are sometimes banned, but there are two things that are really strictly banned.
One is a crossbow and the other is a battle armor.
Private possession of these two things is absolutely prohibited. If caught by the government, they may even label you as a rebel.
Because of armor, a person's combat effectiveness can be increased several times, and even a three-year-old child holding a crossbow can kill people.
Originally, it was impossible for Japanese pirates to have bows and crossbows.
However, large local families like the Wang family colluded with Japanese pirates. In addition, the local army's combat effectiveness was weak in recent years, and they were unable to control the sources of Japanese pirates' weapons. Therefore, Japanese pirates from Wang Xian's line possessed some bows and crossbows.
Most of them are bows.
Bows are not forbidden. After all, hunters also need to use bows and arrows to hunt. However, bows require proficiency and strength. Only the archers in the army are worthy of fear. Ordinary folk archers are useful in battle formations. Not big.
But these Japanese pirates did have crossbows. At a glance, there were probably eight or nine crossbows.
Following a shout from the Japanese pirate leader, these crossbowmen immediately bent or cocked their bows, and then fired a volley in the direction of the anti-Japanese army!
At this time, Xue Wei, who was rushing to the front, shouted sternly: "Shield Hand! Shield Hand!"
It has to be said that the training time for the anti-Japanese army was too short.
Even though Xue Wei had issued the most precise order, the dozen shieldmen were still in a hurry. The process of changing positions was not only slow, but also caused stumbling with the comrades around him. One shieldman even fell directly to the ground with his forehead He hit the shield directly, and his head was instantly bruised and bloody!
Fortunately, most of the shield bearers arrived at the expected location in time and put up their shields.
As soon as the shield was erected, a round of bow arrows and crossbow arrows came over!
Because three or four shield bearers were not in place, there was a gap in the anti-Japanese army's shield formation. Three or four bows and arrows and a staff shot in. Among them, the crossbow arrow hit the thigh of an anti-Japanese army soldier and almost penetrated passed.
After the man was hit by the arrow, he immediately fell to the ground, hugging his thighs and rolling on the ground!
Xue Wei hid behind a shield. After a round of volleys, he took a look at the situation on the battlefield by the light of the fire. Then he took the lead and rushed out of the shield array. At the same time, he shouted loudly: "Brothers! They didn't have time to change their arrows." Come on, the wolf warriors and the swordsmen and axemen come up to me and scatter them!"
This is the difference between amateur thieves and professional troops.
If it is a professional army, even an army like Linhai Guard with terrifyingly low combat power, they also know that long-range attacks cannot be fired all at once. They need to be divided into two rounds or even three rounds, so as to eliminate the shooting gaps as much as possible.
or it could be…
Erase the cooldown time.
However, these Japanese pirates did not have any military professionals. Therefore, although their combat effectiveness was not weak, they made fatal mistakes in the confrontation.
This mistake was caught by Xue Wei.
This brave young man who once killed a Japanese pirate head-on without getting hurt, held the wolf in both hands, took the lead, and rushed towards the Japanese pirate camp.
The wolf sword in his left hand successfully blocked a Japanese pirate's hand. The young man looked hard, and then turned the wolf sword in his hand.
The Japanese pirate felt a powerful force coming towards him. He could no longer hold the Japanese sword firmly and took it out.
Xue Wei held the wolf sword with two hands and turned it into one hand. He grasped the handle of the wolf sword with his left hand and moved his body directly forward. Then, his right hand smoothly pulled out the single sword at his waist and slashed it on the Japanese pirate's head. A stream of blood suddenly sprayed on Xue Wei's face on his chest!
Seeing that the general banner of Xue Wei was so brave, other anti-Japanese soldiers also felt courageous. However, they were not as ruthless as Xue Wei after all, so they could only cooperate in pairs. One person held a wolf with both hands to block the Japanese pirates' weapons, and the other He stepped forward and chopped off the Japanese pirate's feet with his knife!
At this time, the Japanese pirate camp seemed to be in disintegration. They were forced back step by step by twenty or thirty wolves!
The camp collapsed, and the steps underfoot were naturally a little scattered. Just screams were heard. At least a dozen Japanese pirates had their feet chopped off. One of the most seriously injured Japanese pirates had half of his foot chopped off and lay on the ground. Howling incessantly.
The other injured Japanese pirates wanted to fight back, but they no longer had Japanese knives in their hands, so they could only retreat backwards while limping and rolling.
Xue Wei was refreshed and rushed forward again with the wolf sword in hand. He was young, strong and energetic. He quickly blocked the Japanese sword in the hand of a Japanese pirate. Just as he was about to step forward, he saw I saw a young man wearing armor, holding a knife in both hands, who was not very skilled. He ducked under the Langzhen with a short body, and slashed the Japanese pirate's right leg with a sharp knife!
Although the leg bone was not cut off this time, it penetrated more than two inches into the flesh, causing the Japanese pirate to lie on the ground and howl, losing his fighting ability!
Just as Xue Wei was about to speak, he saw the young man turning his head and smiling at himself.
The young General Xue Qi was immediately stunned. He lost his voice and said, "Shen Hanlin!"
Shen Yi now had some blood on his face. He only looked back at Xue Wei and said in a deep voice: "General Xue Qi, this is the first time the enemy has seen Langzhen, and he has suffered such a big loss. It won’t be so easy next time!”
"Therefore, we must kill as many Japanese pirates as possible this time, and we cannot let them escape!"
Mr. Shen shouted in a low voice: "Everyone, what you see in front of you is all the credit, a lot of money, and a beautiful mother-in-law!"
"You will be rewarded thirty taels of silver for each kill, and I will exchange the money for you at dawn!"
For the newly formed anti-Japanese army, it is too vague to talk about the feelings of family and country and how to eliminate harm for the people!
There is nothing more tempting than thirty taels of silver!
You know, according to the current market situation, marrying a daughter-in-law in Taizhou Prefecture only costs a dozen taels of silver!
As soon as Shen Yi said these words, everyone rushed up like a chicken blood rush!
Seeing that everyone was a little disorganized, Shen Yi shouted loudly: "Listen to General Xue Qi's command!"
"Don't charge forward, wolf soldiers. As long as you restrain someone or injure someone, you can still get money!"
Xue Wei, who was on the side, turned red when he heard this. He raised the wolf in his hand by two points, and his voice was like an angry lion.
"Brothers, charge forward and the rest of your life will be settled!"
He said this in Taizhou Prefecture dialect, but in a sharp tone.
"Mom Follicle! Fight with me for the sake of the elders in your hometown!"
General Xue Qi, after he was ready to fight, simply threw aside the wolf trap, pulled out the saber from his waist, and went up to fight the Japanese pirates desperately. .
This led to a fight against the Japanese army and high morale.
The Japanese pirates on the other side, who had always been fearless, were now really panicked and scared.
After all, unknown things are indeed scary sometimes.
The Japanese pirates retreated while fighting, soon leaving corpses on the ground.
At this moment, in the Japanese pirate camp, a woman lowered her head and said to the sturdy man next to her: "Chief, there is something strange about these officers and soldiers..."
"Should we... withdraw?"
The man raised his head and looked at the camp where Shen Yi and others were stationed. His eyes were full of anger: "Withdraw? My second uncle..."
The woman lowered her head again and said, "Leader, today's defeat is certain. If we stay here, we will only increase casualties."
The man took a deep breath and looked in the direction of Xue Wei, his eyes full of anger.
"You can withdraw..."
He stared at Xue Wei, then waved his hand and said, "Kill him first!"
