"Everyone is here, put down the mask" An Sanxi shouted loudly.
Yang Fan equipped his cavalry with modern explosion-proof helmets.
The sturdy aluminum alloy shell is sprayed with dark blue paint and is filled with one-inch thick cushioning material.
It is very effective against blunt objects. Even if it is hit by a hammer, there will be no concussion. Of course, the premise is that your neck bones are strong enough not to break.
The front of the helmet is a visor made of bulletproof glass. After putting it down, you can clearly see the situation in front. A ring-shaped steel plate is inserted into the high collar of the stab-proof suit. There are soft impact-resistant materials inside and outside, which protect the neck very well.
"Everyone is here, run forward." An Sanxi gave the order, and the entire column immediately began to accelerate and rushed towards the Mongolians on the opposite side.
Fifty steps away, the Mongols took out their cavalry bows and shot arrows at the cavalry squad.
Suddenly a hail of arrows came.
The cavalry squad was unmoved because they were all wearing stab-proof jackets.
There is also an aluminum alloy visor on the horse's nose.
Protect the horse's head with an inch-thick impact-resistant material underneath. This is to prevent the opponent from smashing the horse's head with bones, caltrops, iron whips, iron maces, etc.
A shower of arrows accurately landed on the people and horses here, and then bounced off and fell without any suspense.
The Mongolian opened his eyes in surprise.
These people obviously don't wear armor, how could this happen?
The cavalry team also instantly understood how big the gap was between the Mongols and the Han people. There was a considerable gap in the shooting accuracy of the cavalry bows and arrows.
A distance of fifty meters, in Ming terms, is called more than thirty steps.
One hundred arrows, the hit rate is over 80%. These are still herdsmen recruited temporarily, not standing professional soldiers like Lin Dan Khan.
The Mongols couldn't defeat Jiannu, so wouldn't Jiannu's archery skills be even more powerful?
I heard from the boss that the Jiannu slaves in Liaodong often pushed their arrows very close before releasing their arrows. They could basically hit one of the opponent's eyes, and the arrow penetrated into the brain, killing them with one arrow.
Jiannu likes to control his horse and run back and forth at high speed, making it more difficult for you to shoot him. At the same time, he likes to rush up high slopes and then release arrows in the wind. The distance of the arrows is generally no more than fifty meters.
Arrows kill.
Not to mention this era, it was the Qianlong Dynasty's conquest of Burma. The cavalry of the Eight Banners soldiers, equipped with original British Brown Spey flintlocks, severely defeated the Burmese.
The one-meter-two-meter-long armor-piercing arrow can kill anyone with one shot as long as it shows its head.
The cavalry team all knew that if they didn't have such good and light soft armor to protect the men and horses, half of them would have fallen in this round of arrows.
Everyone stopped underestimating the enemy.
Some nervous palms even started to sweat.
Wipe it on your pants quickly to avoid losing your grip on the pistol.
The cavalry from both sides clashed, and time flew by quickly, approaching within fifty meters. The Mongols had no time to shoot the second arrow and were drawing new arrows from their quiver. At this time, the cavalry team quickly pulled out two muskets.
"Free fire, fire" An Sanxi shouted loudly.
At this time, it has entered the shooting range of the handgun. Although the accuracy is best within thirty meters, it takes four shots, so fire in advance.
boom! boom! boom! boom!
There was a flash of fire and smoke. The Mongolians on the opposite side were all wearing leather robes. Although they had good mobility, they had no protection at all.
If it's triple armor like Jiannu's, it can block handguns at least thirty meters away.
After all, handguns are far less powerful than rifles.
The people on the opposite side fell off their horses one by one.
The leader was shocked, what was going on? He was very surprised that they had two firecrackers. Now there are so many muskets, and they can still shoot.
Everyone knows that the reloading of fire blunderbuss is slow, and it is difficult for this kind of cavalry hedge to fire continuously.
The cavalry team quickly pulled the trigger with a rough aim, and quickly fired four bullets in sequence. Without looking at the results of the battle, he immediately turned around and rushed to the west.
At this time, some of the cavalrymen in the front row had already set up their second arrows. Before they had time to fire, they were knocked off their horses by the dense bullets.
Those who were killed were the 20 percent, the braver herdsmen.
Thirty-one people, 124 rounds of lead bullets, fire rate 95%. At least 118 bullets were fired, but the opponent was still in a secret formation. More than thirty people were knocked off their horses by lead bullets, and a dozen horses were shot in different parts.
The leader Aru's eyes were red. His tribe was small to begin with, and more than sixty of his men were killed and injured in these two rounds, and half of his men were lost.
This time he understood that the opponent must have no more guns and no time to reload. He drew his saber and shouted angrily: "Rush over, kill these horse thieves, and avenge the people."
However, they soon saw that the enemy who had finished shooting the musket immediately turned to the right and ran away less than ten meters away.
Mongolia's face turned pale with anger.
I have never seen such shameless horse thieves. Among the men on the grassland, only those who died in battle were not those who turned around and ran away before engaging the enemy.
Before engaging in battle, he exposed his back to the enemy.
If this is a member of the tribe, put a fox tail on his head as a sign of humiliation.
These herdsmen immediately shouted and chased the cavalry team with their machetes raised. Keep shooting while chasing. This time, regardless of whether there is a man or a horse, they are all targets for shooting.
Che Xiaolin and Wang Peng were responsible for breaking up the rear. They had only fired one firecracker just now, leaving one behind to deal with the pursuers.
A dense barrage of arrows hit them both. Despite carrying an aluminum alloy shield on its back. But there are still places that cannot be protected. Although the arrow did not penetrate the stab-resistant suit, the inner lining effectively cushioned the impact of the arrow and would not cause damage to internal organs and bones.
However, the place where he was shot was still painful.
Needless to say, my thighs and back were definitely bruised.
Even the horse he was sitting on shivered in pain.
Although the horse's buttocks and hind legs were wrapped in horse clothing and arrows could not penetrate, it was still very painful.
Wang Peng did not dare to stop, turn around and fire.
Cursing, followed by a shot.
The shot hit the lightning rod on the headman's helmet with a bang. The long needle fell off directly. The eight-petal iron helmet had long been in disrepair and was loose and barely usable. This small tribe was too poor and weak. There were no Han blacksmiths snatched from the Han area and had no repair capabilities.
This suddenly broke the fixed parts on the top, and the helmet immediately fell into pieces.
The leader was so frightened that he immediately slowed down his horse.
The Mongols soon discovered that they could not catch up with the opponent's horses. Each of those horses was very impressive.
It was at least a foot taller than their horses' withers, their four legs were very slender, and they were much faster.
He dropped them right before his eyes.
The leader's heart was sinking. These horse thieves would continue to reload their weapons after running far away, and then come back, like a mill, grinding away the flesh and blood of their own tribe.
"Stop chasing and go back. We immediately break camp and move closer to the nearest large tribe, Merlin's tribe."
