Goryeo, Mangsu Mountain area, the slope outside the military camp.
The flags are flying and the drums are rumbling! Cui Mingji, the commander-in-chief of the Goryeo army, rode his horse, followed his men, and marched forward slowly! Surrounding him were the remaining twenty or thirty Koryo light cavalry. They all wore helmets and armor, carried swords and bows, and looked solemn, like silent sculptures. In front of him were a total of two thousand two hundred people. The army consists of 1,200 imperial camp soldiers, 600 training supervisors (hereinafter referred to as the supervisors), and 300 miscellaneous soldiers. Most of them wear black and white uniforms. The cloth military uniform, holding a weapon from a few years ago or more than ten years ago, is walking forward uneasily at the moment. From time to time, there are officers wearing straight cotton armor and flying saucer helmets waving short sticks in their hands to urge them. They accelerated their advance, and as for the annoying imperial camp general Yin Gongshan, he was sent by the former to transport artillery. Yes, although the Goryeo army is not equipped with as many artillery pieces as the Ming army, there are still some gunners who use bowl-mouth blunderbuss and Xiaolangji in the third-hand army under the imperial camp and the training supervisor! Therefore, to transport the artillery, the auxiliary troops needed a senior officer to lead them, and General Yin Gongshan was honored to receive this honorable position. Who allowed this guy to offend the commander-in-chief of the army? Send him to transport the artillery. Who will be sent to transport the artillery?
“?????????,?????????400????????????????.???????????? ??????????????????????????????????????????????????? (Sir, the enemy only has 400 troops. I think we can form a fish-scale formation to meet the enemy)!" The annoying boss was sent far away to transport artillery. Mr. Qian of the Royal Camp Hall Luo Dayong quickly hit the snake on the stick and flattered Cui Mingji with all his flattery and flattery, which made the latter feel extremely comfortable, so the burden of commanding the soldiers of the imperial camp was naturally handed over to him. As soon as this man gained power, he carried out his orders. In addition to appointing his confidants to take over various important positions in the army, he also began to dictate military affairs! However, unlike General Yin, who is dedicated to serving the public good, this third-grade General Qian always tries to show his obedience and obedience in front of his benefactor! When Cui Mingji wanted to go to war, he cooperated. Not only did he successfully bring the army out to fight, he also thought he was smart and presented a strategy to defeat the enemy! Facts have proved that he did the right thing. The former admired his wisdom and loyalty very much, and after just thinking for a moment, he nodded and agreed to his suggestion.
“??????????????????,??????????,????????????????,?? ????????????????,?????????????????????????????????, ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? , the training capital supervisory army is behind, forming a fish scale formation, and the cavalry is in the middle of the square formation to protect the officers. After the three-tone drum, immediately launch an attack on the enemy!" Now that the plan was made, Cui Mingji ordered Yin Gongshan Leading the gunners and killers in the front, he himself was in the Imperial Camp Hall, Qian Commander Luo Dayong, and training the military commander Shen Yuntai and other middle and low-level generals. Surrounded by officers, he commanded the archer team in the middle, with a total of more than 2,000 people in the entire army. Stand 400 steps (about 640 meters) in front of the enemy and start to unfold the fish scale formation!
"There are about two thousand enemy troops, including more than 500 assassins equipped with cold soldiers, more than 800 gunners using firearms, and more than 500 archers carrying bows and arrows. They have been divided into several small formations to attack us. This side is advancing! Uh, what is that? No, that is the Korean artillery. Damn it, why do the sticks have artillery? Chief, there is an artillery in the enemy's formation. Please order the artillery sentry immediately. Brothers, kill them!" On Chiyang's side, General Fan Jing, the infantry commander holding a brass telescope, quickly noticed the new movements of the Koreans. The next moment, at the request of this guy, the two independent artillery posts The door god's flying cannon, two Ye Gongshen guns, Xuanzi gun guns, four one-pound Buddha guns and four Weiyuan cannons began to cover the main force of the oncoming Koryo Crusade Army! However, because the Koreans were still far away and still moving, the first three rounds of shelling of the entire artillery post did not achieve much success. On the contrary, seeing that the flying cannons did not hit many people, the morale of the Korean people was much higher than before. Now everyone consciously quickened the pace without the officers waving short sticks.
"The Shenfei Cannon, Ye Gong's God Cannon and the Xuanzi Cannon Battery suspended the attack, and the Big Wolf Machine and the Weiyuan Cannon continued to fire! The swordsmen and shields in the front row raised their shields, the long gunners squatted down, and the fusilier gunners raised the muzzle of their guns. There was no one According to the order, no one is allowed to fire, and anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!" Seeing that one hit was missed, Yan Si, the battlefield commander appointed by Kang Lin, immediately waved the Yanling sword in his hand and ordered the Shenfei artillery team to use Ye Gong's divine gun and Xuanzi gun The artillery team paused the attack, and the Big Wolf machine, which fired one kilogram of shells, and the Weiyuan cannon, which fired explosive shells, continued to fire. The only concern was that the former used a small reserve of shells, especially the Shenfei cannon, which easily had more than 20 shells. If a kilo of stone bullets are fired, it’s good if they can hit someone. If they don’t, more than 20 jins of shells will be wasted! Before the war, Boss Kanglin Kang managed to pull out four divine flying cannons and one hundred and twenty rounds of stone bombs after a lot of hard work and opening countless treasure chests. Half of the reserves had been used in the naval battle. Now let them go. Yan Si was squandering money, and this guy was really reluctant to part with it. So, they stopped the shooting of Shenfei artillery group and Ye Gong Shengun Xuanzi gun group. As for the fusiliers who raised their muzzles and prepared to shoot from a long distance, they wanted to see the fusiliers equipped by their own musketeers. Can you hit the enemy infantry that is outside the effective range and approaching your own military formation at a constant speed while hanging fire?
"??,????,????,????????,???????? (Uh, my hand, it hurts, it's broken, it's broken) …”
“??,???????????????,??,????????????????,?????????? ????? (Enemy, the enemy’s artillery shells are coming, ah, I was hit, who can help me)..."
“????,????,????????????,???????????????????????? ????????????????????????,??????????????????????????? ?????????(Dongzhu, Dongzhu, let’s run, I just saw Sanshu’s head was blown away by a cannonball, if we don’t leave we will die here too)!”
…
As the distance between the two sides continued to get closer, Chiyang's Big Wolf Machine and Weiyuan Cannon finally showed their terrifying lethality! Putting aside the rice-made explosive shells that exploded occasionally, the Big Wolf machine that fired one kilogram of shells seemed to be on autopilot at this moment, shooting wildly at a speed of about ten seconds, just like a western cowboy shootout movie. The revolvers in the so-called gunners can fire as fast as they draw their guns! It was just a pain for the oncoming Korean army. Some people were constantly hit or scratched by the flying cannons. In just less than a cup of tea, dozens of people fell on the way forward! To be honest, although the Folang machine is not as powerful as the front-loaded smoothbore cannon for one reason or another, the distance between the two sides at this moment is too close, only about two hundred steps. It is the Folang machine that can exert its full power. The powerful effective range, plus the rate of fire of this thing is so fast, it can fire one shot in almost four or five breaths! Therefore, the Goryeo army, which had been marching in a decent manner, began to slowly become commotion. The sergeants of the Royal Camp Hall and the training sergeants who had been in peace for a long time had never seen such a battle. They were soldiers just for this. The monthly salary of five silver coins and six measures of rice grains was deducted by the Shangguan. He still wants his group to work for them. Damn it!
“?????????,?????????,???????????????????????????.???? ???????????????????????????,??????????????????(hold still , hold still, no one is allowed to retreat, if anyone dares to disobey the order, he will be killed on the spot)!" Seeing the fearful expressions on the faces of the sergeants under his command, as if they were about to retreat, Luo Da, the Qian Commander of the Royal Camp Hall, struck with his right hand. Lifting up, a sharp long knife appeared in his hand. Next, regardless of the horrified eyes of his sergeants, the man beheaded the deserter closest to him with one "swipe" of the knife. At the same time, he said: He also kept uttering threatening words! And his move was indeed useful. After seeing Mr. Qian's decisive attack, some weak-minded guys immediately put away their thoughts of escaping, gritted their teeth and continued to march forward!
"Two hundred and twenty steps (about 352 meters) away!"
"Two hundred steps (about 320 meters) away!"
"One hundred and sixty steps (about 256 meters) away!"
"One hundred and thirty steps (about 208 meters) away!"
As the sergeants observing the distance continued to report, the commanders of both sides quickly figured out the exact distance between the two sides! And Chiyang's bombardment slowly stopped when the distance between the two sides shortened to one hundred and thirty steps! They were afraid that if they shot too smoothly, they would scare the enemy away, so they quietly stopped shooting amidst the gunner's shouts! Of course, they did not forget to prepare a big gift for their enemies. Not only were all the artillery loaded and ready to fire at any time, but there were also four or five flying cannons mixed among the fusiliers, just waiting for the commander's order. , launch simple grenades filled with poison and iron slag at the oncoming enemies!
"??????160????,????????????????,?????????,?????????? ?????????????????????,????????????????????????? ????????????,??????????????????????????????,?????? ????????????(The distance is still 160 meters away. Everyone stopped advancing and stood firm. The musketeers in the front row raised their muskets and prepared to shoot. The cold weapon troops in the middle held their weapons and prepared to fight. The archers in the back row raised their bows and arrows, preparing to throw them!" Obviously, the Koreans were also keenly aware of this phenomenon. However, lack of war experience, they thought it was the previous indiscriminate bombing, which caused the enemy's ammunition reserve to be consumed. Almost exhausted. So, at the command of the officers, they stopped their progress and raised their matchlock guns and bows, ready to fire arrows and lead pellets at any time!
