Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1583, the robber who took advantage of the fire
"First team, get ready, fire~"

"Boom~Boom~"

Accompanied by the intensive gunfire, the people at the front between the Musketeers of the Ottoman Empire and the Egyptian Musketeers fell down like dumplings, but soon, someone from the back row would immediately step forward to fill the vacancy. Restore the full queue.

At this moment, almost everyone on the Dabik Grassland is watching the battle of musketeers queuing up and shooting. They are like European knights, without any protection, and they will never take a step back. , but keep moving forward and forward, getting closer and closer to each other.

Kansu II could even clearly see the beads of sweat emerging from the foreheads of the soldiers at the forefront. This tactic of queuing up and shooting undoubtedly required fearless courage for the soldiers on both sides of the war.

Greed for life and fear of death is a human instinct. Only fearless courage and supreme honor can make people overcome the fear of death and line up to fight each other.

Such courage, such guts, [-] against [-], musketeers against musketeers, line up to shoot and shoot, it depends on who is lucky and who can't hold on first.

However, a huge discrepancy soon appeared in the queue shooting between the two sides.

The Egyptian musketeers have been training for a long time, and they all use the Miyun [-]-type flintlock muskets imported from Ming Dynasty, which have a long range, relatively better accuracy, and faster speed.

Although the musketeers on the Ottoman side had been trained for a long time, only [-] of them used the Miyun [-]-style flintlock, and [-] used the flintlock muskets made by the Ottoman Empire itself.

The quality of the flintlock guns made by the Ottoman Empire is very different from that of the Ming Dynasty.

Not only is the range shorter, the rate of fire is slower, and the accuracy is much lower. The most important thing is that the reliability is very poor. There are problems when you hit it, and you can't continue to fire.

When the distance between the two sides is relatively long, the hit rate of both sides is very low, and the gap in casualties is not large, but when the two sides step into the distance of [-] meters, the casualties of the Musketeers on the Ottoman side begin to be urgently needed surge.

As soon as the Egyptian musketeers opened fire, the musketeers in the forefront of the Ottoman Empire almost collapsed at once. However, when the musketeers of the Ottoman Empire opened fire, only two or three out of ten of the Egyptian musketeers fell. .

With such a huge difference, after rounds of salvos, the musketeers on the Ottoman side finally couldn't hold on.

The death was too tragic. A large number of soldiers fell on the grassland, with corpses strewn all over the field, and blood flowing into rivers. In the end, there were only less than [-] musketeers left in the [-] Ottoman Empire, and the musketeers on the Egyptian side were only The casualties were less than [-], and the huge difference between them made the remaining musketeers unable to hold on anymore.

"Your Highness, the musketeers must be replaced, I can't beat them~"

"You can't bury all these musketeers here. It took a huge price to build it."

Ali Pasha was also in a hurry. The [-] Musketeers were built by Bayezid II at a huge cost.

The muskets in their hands alone were all made of real money.

Needless to say, the Miyun [-]-type musket imported from Daming is worth more than two hundred taels of silver, which is simply sky-high. The Ottoman Empire captured a large number of craftsmen from Europe, and used these craftsmen to imitate the muskets of the Ming people. flintlock muskets, although the price is much, much cheaper.

However, because the Ottoman Empire does not have mature technology, the cost is still not small. The yield of these muskets is extremely low. The yield of ten muskets is only [-]-[-]%. A large number of muskets are prone to failure and damage.

Don't look at the [-] musketeers, but the Ottoman Empire spent millions of taels of silver and spent a lot of manpower and material resources.

This musket force was used by the Ottoman Empire to deal with Europeans, and it was expected to rely on it to conquer cities and territories in Europe in the future, so it couldn't be all broken here.

"Withdraw~"

Selim pondered for a while, and then gave the order to withdraw the Musketeers.

A large number of cavalry began to attack the Egyptian Musketeers to cover the retreat of the Musketeers, but these cavalry who attacked the Egyptian Musketeers undoubtedly suffered a devastating blow.

Under the powerful and dense array, the power of the muskets was displayed to the greatest extent, billowing smoke filled the air, and countless cavalrymen fell from their horses.

The musketeers in Egypt were like a billowing torrent, advancing with the smoke of gunpowder. Wherever they passed, the Ottoman army could not resist at all, like sharp knives ruthlessly piercing into the Ottoman army camp.

"Let's retreat~"

Ali Pasha put down the binoculars in his hand. If he could withdraw smoothly from today's battle, it would be a win-win situation.

"But, I'm really not reconciled~"

Selim looked at the Egyptian army led by musketeers, their momentum was like a rainbow, even the newly armed peasant army howled like hungry wolves.

Looking at myself again, many legions are still busy capturing prisoners, and their strength is not as good as that of the opponent. Although they are all well-trained troops, it is obviously impossible to defeat the Egyptians in this battle.

"Report~"

At this moment, someone came hurriedly on a horse from behind.

"The Persian army attacked Baghdad, Mesopotamia is at stake, please help~"

"Retreat~"

No matter how unwilling Selim was, he had no choice but to order a retreat at this time.

Once the Persians occupy the Mesopotamia and cut off their retreat at that time, they may be finished, and if Egypt is not defeated and the Mesopotamia is lost, even if he went down to Damascus in one day this time, I am afraid It is also shameless to go back to Istanbul.

"Haha~"

"The opponent has retreated~"

Seeing the signs of the retreat of the Ottoman army through the telescope, Kansu II immediately shouted excitedly.

Facing the powerful front of the Ottoman Empire and the betrayal of Kara Wendur, he withstood tremendous pressure, and the musketeers in his hands lived up to his expectations, turning the tide of the battle at a critical moment.

Otherwise, in this battle, not only will he die without a place to bury him, but Egypt will also fall into the hands of the Ottoman Empire in the future.

"Thanks to spending a lot of money to build these [-] Musketeers. The Ming people's things are really expensive, but the quality is really unspeakable."

"It's no wonder that the [-] army of the Ming Dynasty could suppress the [-] army of the Ottoman Empire, and there was an overwhelming massacre. The era of cold weapons is coming to an end."

Kansu II is really very grateful that he spent a huge price to build this ace musketeer, otherwise today is really over.

"Great Majesty, shall we pursue them?"

Some ministers were overjoyed. They originally planned to surrender. Who knew that the Musketeers in the hands of Kansu II were so sharp that they not only destroyed the opponent's cavalry, but also crushed the Ottoman Empire with fearless courage. Musketeers, turned the tide of battle.

"Report~"

When Kansu II was hesitating whether to pursue or not, someone from the rear also rushed to report.

"After the Spanish fleet attacked our Alexandria and occupied Alexandria, they announced the establishment of colonial rule in Alexandria!"

"what?"

When Kansu II heard this, he was shocked.

I transferred all the troops in the country to the east to fight bloody battles with the Ottoman army. Who knew that at this critical moment, the Spaniards actually captured Alexandria.

What makes people even more angry is that Spain does not regard Egypt as a powerful country at all, but as a place where they can be plundered and colonized barbarians, just like those places on the coast of West Africa.

"Too much deception~too much deception~"

Kansu II suddenly became extremely angry.

Even though the Ming Empire treated Egypt well, they had a good relationship with Egypt. Even though they saw the value of the Egyptian canal, they didn't say that they would invade Egypt, but worked together with Egypt to develop it.

What is this Spain? It completely ignores ancient Egypt and regards Egypt as a barbarian. There is no power to exist. Where did it declare colonial rule after capturing Alexandria?

"Withdraw troops~"

Kansu II thought for a while, and decisively issued an order to withdraw troops.

I am ambitious and want to expand everywhere, but it's fine for the Ottoman Empire to invade me, but Spain also came to stab me in the back, completely ignoring Egypt.

Such humiliation is unacceptable and intolerable to Kansu II.

He knew that he had to use a big victory to establish Egypt's international status, otherwise the wolves in the four directions would want to gnaw off a piece of meat from Egypt in the future.

Today is Alexandria, tomorrow it may be Port Said, and the day after tomorrow it may be Cairo.

"Spanish, you chose the wrong target to bully, I will let you know how powerful we Egyptians are!"
