behind me is the earth.

Chapter 176. 174. Powerful Firearms
There was a sound of "sucking and sucking" eating noodles in the barracks, and the soldiers licked their bowls clean.

After eating, the auxiliary soldiers transported a large amount of ammunition and grenades to the front line, waiting for the war to replenish at any time after consumption.

"The enemy army has moved out!"

On a hillside in the rear, an erected antenna was erected there to receive telegrams from the front.

The commander's tent is also here, the messenger turned his head and said to Liu Qiang who was sitting there with his eyes closed.

"Continue to observe and count every 5 miles."

Liu Qiang's eyes were not opened, he was still thinking about whether his tactics were not perfect.

It is also the first time for him to command such a large-scale war. Although relying on the military books he has read before, after several deduction and exercises, he knows how to deal with this kind of war, and he uses hot weapons to face cold weapons. Even if he fights more with less, he still has the confidence to win!
However, being able to reduce casualties of one's own side as much as possible and strike the enemy's vital force as much as possible has a direct relationship with his arrangement.

Time passed bit by bit, and there were bursts of chants outside. This is the militia group, which is undergoing training with the company as a unit. Liu Qiang went out to take a look. The militia group has formed under the command of Lu Feihu. Three phalanxes stood by.

Zhengbing has also formed a phalanx.

When they charge, they don't have to form a formation like a militia. The basic unit is a trio, the platoon is a unit to cooperate with each other, and the company is a unit to cover each other. Loosely combined, they can exert their own combat effectiveness.

"The vanguard of the thief army is still five miles away!"

cried the orderly.

Liu Qiang picked up the walkie-talkie and pressed the intercom button: "I am Liu Qiang, each unit checks weapons and ammunition and prepares for war!"

"Roger that!"

The voices of the officers came over the intercom.

Standing on the high hill, Liu Qiang saw that the troops from all over the place immediately took action.

The three phalanxes of the militia arrived at the predetermined position and formed a "〔" formation.

When Liu Dajiang came to the battlefield selected for him by the Qingcheng regiment, what he saw was this group of soldiers in formation!
"The formation is loose, there are no gongs and drums, and there are no enemy flags. Will these people fight?"

Even if Liu Dajiang is a general from the peasant army, after years of study, he has to command the army with drums and flags before he can command and convey orders, form a corresponding formation to meet the enemy, and respond with a formation that suits the terrain and the number of people War with the enemy army.

And there was nothing on the other side.

"The master on the other side is a novice who doesn't know anything, right?"

He couldn't help thinking in his mind: "Could it be that those scouts before were really killed by monsters?"

He knew about monsters, and even encountered monsters making trouble in Fengtai a few months ago, and was later killed by the officers and soldiers of the court.

There are also rumors of monsters in Mount Mang in Northern Anhui.

"General, these people have been purged in the army, I'm afraid there is something wrong with them."

The staff member on the horse next to him cupped his hands and reminded.

Even in the face of one's own army, the enemy's formation is not chaotic at all.

"Send someone to communicate first... No need."

Liu Dajiang wanted to send someone to communicate, but at this time, the enemy army had already started marching forward, which was obviously a signal for war!

"This group of people seems to be less than 1 people, but they don't know where this army came from. They are acting so arrogantly, but let me weigh you. How dare you stand in my way, Liu Dajiang!

Go, first press the cannon fodder and go up to try it out.

The main soldiers lined up in front and arrow formations, ready to attack the three square formations of the enemy.

Cavalry stand ready, ready to attack from the flank! "

Liu Dajiang ordered.

Below, the messenger immediately rode down and passed on Liu Dajiang's order.

Liu Dajiang said it was easy, but at this moment his heart was not easy at all.

Thousands of soldiers on the other side, without drums or command flags, were able to step on the same pace, ordering and prohibiting one by one, and the three phalanxes approached in a uniform manner. This kind of army has never been seen before, and it is unheard of. It is incomprehensible!
Zhang Heizi and his men lined up in the first row of the square formation in the middle, stepping on the sound of the "beep~beep" whistle, and walked forward.

After more than half a month of patrolling and killing an unknown number of rout soldiers, they looked at the enemy's cannon fodder holding picks, sticks, and even bare hands. Not only were they not afraid, they even felt a little funny.

What is there to be afraid of in such a battle?
"Beep!"

"stop!"

The company commander got the order to stop through the walkie-talkie, and the whistle in his mouth stopped.At this moment, the team stopped as they did in countless training sessions before. Except for the sound of breathing, everything in the team was silent. Everyone stood there solemnly, like a solid wall, full of chills. gas!

They looked at the messy, swarming enemy troops rushing in from afar, without any emotion on their faces.

"First row, raise your gun!"

The company commander's shout was amplified with the loudspeaker in his hand.

At this moment, the militiamen who have integrated into the group are as precise as a part of this large war machine, and they are doing their own things at this time.

The militiamen in the first row of the three phalanxes all took a step forward and raised their flintlock guns.

Waiting silently, waiting for these enemy troops to reach within their effective range!
One breath, two breaths, three breaths, four breaths... Everyone was silent, their fingers on the trigger.

Thanks to the long-term preparation training, the training procedures have been deeply carved into their bones.

After going through the task of cleaning up the rout soldiers, most of the militiamen's hands were contaminated with the lives of those rout soldiers.

At this moment, the entire war machine is very stable.

They stared at the enemies who were rushing, and none of them pulled the trigger in advance.

"put!"

With an order.

Because of the dense formation of the enemy, there is no need to consider the accuracy of the shots, and they start to order to shoot after more than 200 steps (about 400 meters).

"Bang bang bang!" The voice rang out, but in a very short time, the first row of the three phalanxes had already dumped the bullets in the gun chambers.

At the same time, the cannon fodder that was being driven to run on the battlefield was suddenly stunned!
The cannon fodder rushed up in a dense formation, and hundreds of people fell down in an instant in the front row, and those who were not shot dead on the spot were struggling, howling, and being trampled.

Countless cannon fodder standing in front, looking at the fallen companion beside them, a chill rushed from the soles of their feet to their minds, and the feeling of fear instantly grew in their hearts, and they couldn't help getting goose bumps all over their bodies. trembling all over.

They are just a group of untrained civilians who were coerced by the rebels.

However, the people behind didn't know the situation and were pushed forward.

In front of the Qingcheng militia phalanx, a cloud of white smoke had already risen, blocking their sight.

Fortunately, they don't need to watch the enemy's casualties, they just need to obey the order and shoot.

After the first row finished shooting, he immediately squatted down and began to change bullets quickly.

The second row was already holding their guns and pulling the trigger.

When the third row pulled the trigger, the first row had finished reloading in the skilled and mechanical movements, and pulled the trigger again!

Almost seamlessly.

The white smoke filled more and more, and the whiteness completely blocked the sight of the militiamen. Instead, they were not afraid in their hearts. They only remembered the actions in their hands, quickly pulled back the trigger, stuffed the primer bag and projectiles, and beat them to the end with the push rod , Raise the gun, pull the trigger, pull back the trigger... Repeatedly, repeating mechanical actions.

300 meters above the sky, several drones are flying at the same time, they are either hovering in the air, or quickly staggered and skipped.Observe the enemy's movements at all times, and transmit any actions and changes to the command post on the hill in real time.

After two rounds, the enemy's cannon fodder has fallen by more than four thousand!
There are still more than 100 steps between the two sides, and the handover of troops has not yet begun, and the enemy is already in chaos!

Some people turned around and ran back, countless people collided here, and chaos was born from this.

Liu Dajiang looked at the chaos on the front line and was extremely anxious!
"Immediately push up, the soldiers...the old battalion immediately press up! Scatter the frontier folks! Push up the chariot! Cover the archers, and the archers throw!"

He shouted loudly.

Seeing such a battle situation, even those newly recruited recruits are no better than those cannon fodder!
You can only press your own three thousand veterans up, only these people have the courage and ability to purge the battlefield.

The messenger immediately galloped away on horseback.

Liu Dajiang's eyes were scarlet: "Damn, what kind of army is this? What kind of army is this! There are firearms, such sharp firearms! Shooting at more than 200 steps can cause such casualties!
Damn you, you sent out so many scouts, and you can't even find out who the other party is, so it's fucking useless to ask you to be a fool! "

His temples throbbed with anger, he raised the whip in his hand and threw it at a young general in silver armor next to him.

The silver-armored young general held the whip in one hand, and said coldly, "General, don't be so angry."

"Humph!"

With a whip, Liu Dajiang retracted the whip and snorted coldly.Suddenly he pulled out the long knife on the horse's back, flashed in the void with a "huh", and chopped off the head of the adjutant next to the young general in silver armor, blood gushing: "Liu Chunsheng, remember, this army now be mine!
And you are my subordinate! "

The young silver-armored general's chest heaved violently, and his eyes were about to spew fire.

After all, he still tightly held the handle of the knife in his hand, suppressing the anger in his heart.

Liu Dajiang has a violent personality, but his commanding ability is not bad. The regular soldiers rushed forward in formation and instantly pierced through the chaotic soldiers in front.

Cover the archers and rush forward.

However, even if the bow and arrow are fired from a high angle, the shooting distance is only about a hundred steps, and it is tantamount to dreaming to touch the opponent at the risk of bullets.

After the soldiers rushed out, they immediately felt the power of the guns. The thick wooden shields wrapped in leather on the chariot in front saw the wood chips hit by the flintlock bullets flying and crackling!Moreover, the shield car couldn't block everyone, and people were hit by projectiles from time to time.

Finally, he walked a hundred steps against the hail of bullets. The closer he was, the more powerful the bullets were. From time to time, the shield was pierced and hit the soldiers behind the shield car, and it was already impossible to move an inch!
"Archer!"

The archers behind bent their bows and shot upwards, and thousands of arrows shot into the sky in an instant!

However, the effect has been achieved.

At the end of the crossbow, it is impossible to penetrate Lu Jin.Most of the arrows failed to fall into the militia phalanx at all, and occasionally arrows fell, but they failed to interrupt the rhythm of the militia party design.

Standing on the high slope, Liu Dajiang looked at the scene on the battlefield, anxious: "No! This can't go on like this! Liu Chunsheng, you immediately lead people around to harass the enemy's firearms battalion. You can't let them fire guns like this!"

When Liu Dajiang was extremely anxious, Liu Qiang's mentality was much more relaxed than when the war started. Looking at the screen transmitted by the drone on the monitor, he judged the enemy's position based on the grid distance above. Intercom: "Qin Sheng, get ready to fire."
