Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 483 The Difference Between Cloud and Mud
On the battlefield of Musashi Kingdom, before the fallen coalition forces knew what had happened, more than a dozen shells fell from the sky and smashed into their positions with a howl!
"Ahhh!" A soldier who was hit by a shell screamed. His right chest was pierced by rough shrapnel, mixed with blood and pieces of internal organs, and fell to the ground. The miserable death could not be more miserable.

boom!Just before the chaotic Allied Forces could react, the shells fell again!

The whistling and piercing sound, and the strong recoil caused the heavy iron wheels to back down, sinking slightly into the ground.

Kawayama Kugao, a veteran of the Satsuma Clan, observed the situation on the battlefield with a pale face. The range of the Kyushu Army's artillery made him feel scared.

From the Warring States Period, the Wanli War, and even Ryukyu, he led soldiers to fight for the Shimadzu family. With rich experience, he can easily distinguish the range of the opponent's artillery.However, this intuitive range made him desperate.

Because the field artillery used by the Kyushu Army, whether it is the artillery produced by the Shimadzu family itself, or the artillery bought from the Kyushu Army, the range is not as good as the artillery used by the Kyushu Army themselves.

"The distance of the blooming bullets has reached about Hachimachi, which is twice the range of our artillery. Even if we use solid bullets, we can't hit them!" Huashan Kugao felt uncomfortable.

For a long time, the Shimadzu family thought that the artillery of the Kyushu Army they purchased was the most sophisticated artillery in the world, second only to the artillery used by the Kyushu Army itself, even though the artillery used by the Kyushu Army for personal gain was better than the artillery that was exported , won't be much better.

But now the artillery produced by the Kyushu Army is obviously much better than the obsolete goods that the Shimadzu family bought from the Kyushu Army.

"The opponent's generals seem to understand the artillery they sold to us, so they launched an attack on our friendly forces outside the range covered by our artillery. This is too bad for us!" Huashan Hisao, son of Huashan Hisaka Shou said.

"We have tried our best and failed to count the cunning Chinese people. The artillery sold to us at a high price is a bunch of outdated junk in their eyes! But it is too unbelievable. More than 30 years ago, I followed the previous owner in the The Goryeo Kingdom fought against the Ming army. Although their artillery was numerous and powerful at that time, they were not even as good as the artillery sold to us by the Kyushu Army. Why did their artillery improve by more than two after more than 30 years? Grade." Huashan Jiugao couldn't understand it.

In fact, he really wronged Chu Yun.The artillery that Chu Yun sold to them was indeed the highest batch of land warfare artillery in this era. Perhaps only the heavy artillery of the Western fleet could surpass this batch of artillery in this era.But the more advanced smoothbore gun technology, Chu Yun, as the foundation of the army, is impossible to leak out for the profit of reselling arms.

In addition to advanced smoothbore gun technology, the Kyushu Army is still trying to develop rifled guns and steel guns with its own strength, and some of them have also been installed in the army.However, due to performance, flexibility, cost, and reliability considerations, smoothbore guns are the most used by the Kyushu Army.

The expeditionary force led by Zheng Zhilong mainly brought a relatively sophisticated Napoleon cannon, a bronze smoothbore cannon.At this time, the reliability of the bronze cannon is still higher than that of the iron cannon that is easy to explode. In order to play more stable when it is not critical, Zheng Zhilong still chose the Napoleon cannon in the Kyushu Army whose artillery types began to explode.

"Hmph, you dare to deal with us with the Frang cannon you bought from us, do you really think we are good people?" Zheng Zhilong held a slender single-pass telescope, closed his eyes, and observed the situation. The chaotic downfall of the coalition forces.

The veterans of the Warring States Period, the Wanli War, and the Sekigahara War era almost all died, and the survivors were 70 to [-] years old. There are only a handful of veterans like Huashan Kugao who are still in armor at [-].The rest of the daimyo's subordinates are almost all recruits who have never experienced a decent war. The most powerful weapon they have ever seen may be the Japanese iron cannon - the matchlock gun.

At this time, the Napoleon cannon was hiding outside the range of the Satsuma Domain's Franc cannon, and unscrupulously poured shells into the troops of the fallen coalition forces.

The Napoleon cannon was divided into two parts by Zheng Zhilong. One part fired solid bullets from the front to penetrate the opponent's arquebus column, and the other part fired ammunition filled with black powder from the back and exploded in the coalition forces!

In order to enhance the defensive ability, the Allied Forces formed a formation with relatively strong defense, but the dense formation made the artillery of the Kyushu Army reach the maximum lethality!
Zheng Zhilong was very happy to hear the cannons roaring in his ears, which gave people goosebumps.There is no sound that makes soldiers' blood boil more than the roar of cannons.Except, of course, the poor soldiers exposed to the threat of artillery.

"Jinger, you lead three hundred cavalry to attack the chaotic army from the side." Zheng Zhilong said to his younger brother Zheng Zhihu.

What he pointed to was the overthrowing coalition forces of more than 7000 people.The three hundred cavalry were Mongolian cavalry brought from southern Liaoning.Zheng Zhilong didn't seem to have any doubts about the overthrowing coalition forces that defeated more than 7000 people with [-] cavalry.

"Brother, we are all respectable and decent people now, can you stop calling me by my old name." Zheng Zhihu protested dissatisfied.

The focus of his attention is not whether he can defeat the Allied Forces, but Zheng Zhilong's name for himself.If the daimyos who were at a loss on the opposite side heard Zheng Zhilong's conversation, they would definitely commit seppuku with shame.

"Mongol warriors, Kublai Khan wanted to conquer this land before, but they failed. Now is the time for you to fulfill your ancestors' last wish!" Zheng Zhihu pulled out his saber.

"Kill!" The Mongolian cavalry simply and neatly pulled out the straight-edged saber.

Rows of sabers gleamed coldly under the sunlight, like the white fangs of the god of death.

"Kill!" Zheng Zhihu clamped his horse's belly, and led three hundred well-trained Mongolian cavalry to launch a wall charge!

There are no fancy tactics, Zheng Zhilong brothers still use the artillery bombardment that the Kyushu Army has repeatedly disliked in previous battles, and then the army presses down on such a simple and crude attack method!

Although this cavalry unit has only 300 people, it has a tight formation and high fighting spirit. Once it comes into contact with more than 7000 fallen coalition forces that are in chaos, it will definitely be a one-sided massacre.

"Not good! My son, you lead a thousand soldiers to support the coalition forces!" Huashan Jiugao found that a cavalry soldier from the Kyushu army rushed out and attacked the fallen coalition forces from the side.

The reason why I chose to attack from the side was to avoid the artillery of the Satsuma clan!

"Do you want to support? It's not that easy. The artillery allocated most of the artillery to the Satsuma army formation!" Zheng Zhilong was also trying to figure out Huashan Kugao's intention. The artillery was distributed to Satsuma.
