Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

In the impression of the Qing army, the quality of the Ming army's firearms was extremely poor. Three shots could blow up the chamber once. The wall of the chamber was as thin as paper, and it was connected in a tubular manner. The blunderbuss used [-] catties of Fujian iron, and then the Ministry of Industry of the Ming Dynasty cut corners year after year. A firecracker only used five or six catties of iron, and it was connected with a thin iron pipe to form a barrel. It is normal for such a firecracker to explode, but it does not explode. It is a miracle.

Poor firecrackers, poor training, poor treatment of battalion soldiers, all of these add up to poor morale. Often, the Ming army will fire indiscriminately when they are two hundred paces away. When the Qing army rushed forward, the weak defense line of the Ming army would completely collapse. This happened every time.

But at this time, the Ming army on the opposite side never opened fire, and there was always an ominous silence. Under this silence, it was the muzzle of the gun that could be clearly seen. This feeling of being aimed made more and more The soldiers of the Qing army who got closer seemed to be facing a poisonous snake staring at them, and were hissing and spitting out snake letters.This kind of feeling is extremely bad, which makes many people hesitate in their actions, but the people behind don't know the details and are still struggling to move forward. This makes the people in the front have no choice but to bite the bullet and move on. rush.

Soon, to a distance of about sixty steps, this distance is already enough.

Zhang Shouren let out a sigh of relief, shot closer, and then shot at a very close range. This was calculated in advance based on the distance of the Qing army's bows and arrows, the assault distance of the infantry, and the optimal distance for throwing weapons. [

By this time, he was also amazed at the power of the Qing army's archers... In the few rounds of rapid shooting just now, according to his judgment, at least about [-] Fushan soldiers were carried away from the battlefield, among which the musketeers and armored spearmen participated. Do, and even some swordsmen with shields.

This battle loss rate was unexpectedly high, which also made him revise the view that the Qing army's bows and arrows are bragging, but they are actually useless... This view is the inherent arrogance and prejudice of a soldier in the era of hot weapons... …What's so terrible about bows and arrows, but they are just sissy sports, children's play games, this thing can decide the victory of a war?

Now that the facts were in front of him, Fushan's weakness was also exposed to Zhang Shouren.

The solid shells of the artillery are still too lethal to dense infantry, and they are attacking at a long distance. After entering a short distance of several hundred steps, the artillery will not be able to continue shooting. The shooting angle is not so easy to adjust, and it is easy to accidentally injure , and the gun barrel is easy to overheat, the long-range attack is single and the lethality is small, and the middle and short range lacks good firearms that can kill infantry in a large area... If there is, it will be a good deterrent to the Qing army archers.

In the few rounds of rapid shooting just now, that is to say, the Fushan Battalion can withstand it. The ordinary Ming army with poor equipment, low morale and insufficient training, even the elite Ming army, may be shot into chaos. , no doubt that whichever side's array is out of order, the defeat is foregone.

Fortunately, he withstood it, not only withstood it, but also performed very well.

Zhang Shouren let out a breath of white air slowly, and also let out a little bit of worry and bad breath in his chest. Let's talk about the future later. Now, it's time for these bastards in front of him to pay a painful price.
