Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1582, Invincible Musketeers
"Start, let's go~"

The central army of Kansu II's army, with the commander's order, the [-] new army, like a huge cube, began to march towards the Ottoman army with neat steps.

"Tata~Tata~"

The sound of neat steps was like the loudest war drum, and groups of soldiers were lined up neatly, carrying muskets on their backs, and the shining bayonets shone brightly under the sunlight.

The [-] musketeers are the central army, and the two wings are protected by [-] new troops.

Kansu II also knew clearly that these new troops had just been recruited and were not yet ready for use. Therefore, the new army also arranged a tight queue and formation, and used a large number of defensive weapons such as shields and spears to maximize their strength. Defensive power ensures the safety of the two wings of the Musketeers of the Chinese Army, so that the Musketeers can fully exert their power.

"Stand at attention~"

"Relax~"

"First team, get ready, fire~"

Soon, the musketeers met the Ottoman army who came to stop them, and watched the light cavalry rush towards them excitedly. The [-] new troops lined up in six rows, with [-] people in each row.

With the command of the commander, five thousand muskets opened fire in an instant, and the dense gunshots sounded like fried beans, and the billowing smoke filled the air.

The Ottoman light cavalry who rushed towards the Musketeers almost fell down one after another as if they had hit an invisible wall.

"Second column, get ready, fire~"

After the first volley, the second row of musketeers aimed at the newly charged cavalry again, and with the sound of dense fried beans, the newly charged light cavalry all fell down.

"Stand at attention, let's go~"

Just two rounds of volleys, like an extremely sharp sickle, harvested the outermost Ottoman light cavalry in the blink of an eye, and made those Ottoman cavalry who were jealous and about to charge quickly stop.

On the other hand, Kansu II has no intention to stop moving forward. If you don't come over, I will go over.

The [-] new army and the [-] troops on the two wings, accompanied by a command, rolled towards everyone in the Ottoman Empire like a huge torrent.

"Block them, you must stop them, you must not let them rescue those infantry!"

Seeing this scene on the battlefield through the binoculars, Selim and Ali Pasha were anxious.

"As expected of the musketeers modeled after the army of the Ming Empire, they are truly terrifyingly strong~"

"These muskets are also high-quality goods made by Daming, with long range, high precision, and fast firing rate~"

"If they are allowed to crush them like this, our army will be crushed by then."

"Only Musketeers can deal with Musketeers~"

"Send out musketeers, Your Highness~"

Ali Pasha suggested anxiously.

"No~ wait a little longer~"

"Use cavalry to attack the flanks of the opponent's musketeers, and use heavy cavalry to charge in the middle, tearing up their musketeers. I don't believe it. Their musketeers can even smash their armor."

Selim thought about it carefully, then shook his head slightly.

Musketeers are the trump card in the hands of the Ottoman Empire, and they will rely on these musketeers to fight European barbarians in the future. If they fight the Egyptians now, how can they fight the Europeans when they go back.

What's more, he actually has his own plan.

Selim has always been ambitious, and his father, Bayezid II, is also old, but he has always refused to pass on the seat to himself. This time he managed to control the army this time, and he will not let go of such a good opportunity.

On the battlefield, the army of the Ottoman Empire wanted to continue to eat away at the divided Egyptian infantry while at the same time resisting the rushing Musketeers, and it was full of loopholes.

In addition to encroaching on the infantry, many soldiers came to snatch the captives. They were very perfunctory and simply tied up with each other, and even continued to fight, which gave the Egyptian infantry some breathing room.

The [-] Musketeers led by Kansu II were like a torrent, rolling towards the Ottoman army. Wherever they passed, accompanied by billowing white smoke and gunshots, no one could resist the Musketeers at all. Bingfeng.

When they saw the Musketeers crushing up with neat steps, the Ottoman army became frightened and did not dare to confront it head-on.

These musketeers are really terrible.

They are like demons from hell, without the slightest expression, wearing uniform costumes, and the muskets in their hands are like death scythes, constantly harvesting humble lives.

In the process of advancing, if they encounter Ottoman soldiers or military horses who have not yet died, they will not hesitate to use bayonets to complete the knife.

"Boom~Boom~"

At this time, the ground shook slightly, and the heavy cavalry regiment from Europe began to charge the Musketeers.

European heavy cavalry can be regarded as the pinnacle of the cold weapon era.

This kind of cavalry, whose whole body is surrounded by steel armor, is tall and powerful, and their whole bodies are covered with armor weighing dozens or even hundreds of catties.

Even the horses they ride are the best horses, and they are well protected by armor. The weight of people and horses combined is extremely astonishing, so heavy cavalry has always been very slow, and their endurance is also very poor. lasting.

However, it is very useful to attack the infantry camp, and it can often smash the infantry camp extremely easily.

"First team, get ready, fire~"

"Second team, get ready, open fire~"

However, the Musketeers on the Egyptian side did not have the slightest fear. For the Musketeers, the only thing they could do was to keep firing. Fear was of no avail. Turning around and running away would only lead to a worse death.

The only thing they need is to believe in the muskets in their hands, their teammates, and firm belief. Even in the face of heavy cavalry, they need to be afraid of something.

The heavy cavalry is like a moving steel fortress. When it hits, it is like a torrent of steel. The ground shakes. Everyone is watching, watching the charge of the heavy cavalry.

Compared with the majestic momentum of the heavy cavalry and the recovery records and undefeated myths created countless times in the past, look at the musketeers in Egypt on the opposite side. They are all wearing simple clothes, without any armor protection, and only have one in their hands. There are muskets, and there are no defenses such as horse refusal and shields directly in front.

Anyone would think that the heavy cavalry is sure to win, and under its powerful impact, these musketeers will soon fall apart.

However, soon, a scene that shocked everyone's jaws appeared.

"Boom~Boom~"

Accompanied by round after round of volleys, all the heavy cavalry who rushed over fell down at the fifty-meter line, as if an invisible air wall blocked them firmly, and they couldn't rush through no matter what.

The incomparable plate armor of the later generations could not block musket bullets at all, coupled with the tight formation of musketeers and round after round of salvos, the abundant vitality continued to output.

Once again, it is a profound lesson for everyone, the era of cold weapons is about to withdraw from the stage of history, and the future world is the era of hot weapons.

It seems that it is just a very thin line of Musketeers, but it is as strong as a copper wall and an iron wall. The bayonets in their hands are not even useful.

Miyun Type [-] is a powerful flintlock musket. It is well-made, extremely reliable, and has a fast rate of fire. Compared with previous winning guns, its accuracy is much higher, and its armor-piercing ability is far beyond that of bows and arrows.

Armor that can withstand the assassination and slashing of bows, spears, swords, etc., under this kind of musket, is almost the same as not wearing armor.

Round after round of volleys continuously harvested the heavy cavalry of the Ottoman Empire. The phalanx formed by [-] musketeers was like a steel castle that could never be approached. No matter how powerful the enemy was, it was firmly blocked. Fifty meters away, there is no way to move forward.

"It's better to send out the musketeers, and the only ones who can fight the opponent's musketeers are musketeers."

Looking at this scene, Ali Pasha reminded him of the Ming army he had seen back then. The army of the Ottoman Empire did not believe in evil, and insisted on using cavalry to attack the musketeers of the Ming army, but was beaten head-on.

The same is true now, even if it is a powerful heavy cavalry, when facing musketeers, it is still like wheat waves blown by the wind, being harvested wave after wave.

"The times have changed, and it will be the era of muskets from now on!"

Ali Pasha closed his eyes, and the scene that took place today once again proved a truth to the world, the era of cold weapons is coming to an end, and it will be the era of hot weapons from now on.
