Chapter 103 Crash
The smoke of gunpowder almost enveloped the entire sky, and the battlefield was filled with thick and choking smoke. When the gunshot stopped, whether it was the defenders of the city wall or the Japanese pirates who stood up on the city wall, everyone's eyes were looking at the battlefield.
Furious winds blew by, and the smoke from the battlefield was mercilessly blown away. The visibility of the entire battlefield gradually became clear. The scene that appeared in front of everyone was shocked. On the west side of the city wall, rows of soldiers wrapped in steel were still standing in place like forests, and within a distance of more than ten to more than one hundred meters in front of them, they were covered with corpses, and from time to time, seriously injured and undead Japanese pirates were moaning.
"この(this)...これはなんの possibility がある(how is this possible)?"
Kana Naoka felt that his eyes were dark and he finally stabilized his body. He couldn't believe that the vanguard he was proud of. The powerful attack team composed of spearmen and archers failed. He didn't even touch the corner of the other party's clothes. Tanikawa Masaharu, who was standing next to him, even murmured: "God Amaterasu... Have you abandoned us?"
"Bang..."
A loud slap sounded, and Kazuka Hiroshi slapped him in the face, and he shouted sternly with a blue face: "Baga, what are you talking nonsense? It's just a temporary defeat. Does it make you so pessimistic? Don't forget that you were also a samurai once. Although we were defeated in the country, we cannot even lose the dignity of the samurai like this!"
"Hayi!"
Tanikawa Masaharu, whose face was beaten red and swollen, dared not tell the difference, but just stood up straight and stood up hard.
After slapping several times, Hua Kan stood up straight and gritted her teeth and said in a cold voice that seemed to float out of the ice cellar: "You send my order immediately, everyone will attack the Ming army immediately. You are not allowed to stop without my order! I want to see if the Ming army's muskets will always fire. As for you, let's follow the warriors to charge forward."
“Hayi…”
Tanikawa Masaharu bowed deeply to Naoka Kana and joined the army with dozens of confidants under his command. Soon, with the sound of the low conch, a Japanese pirate shouted and rushed towards the Ming army.
"Fire...the musketeers opened fire immediately!"
Seeing that all the Japanese pirates were rushing towards their own square formation, Yang Feng didn't pay attention to the order to wait until the enemy entered the effective range and then fired. When the Japanese pirates entered a distance of about 120 meters, he ordered the musketeers to fire on the spot. For a moment, the entire square formation was shrouded in a thick smoke.
Seeing the Japanese pirates launching a crazy attack on the Ming military formation, Wu Zhenliang on the city wall was so scared that his legs trembled a little. He asked Gong Daxian in a trembling voice: "Gong...Gong Guard, do you think...the people below can withstand the attacks of those bandits?"
"The officials don't know." Gong Daxian shook his head with a serious expression. "If the bandits rush into the formation, it will be easy for the opponent to disrupt the formation. And I wonder if you have noticed it. The bandits have learned to be smart now. They have begun to let the old and weak spearmen rush in the front and let the elite vanguards be behind. This is to let the spearmen consume our muskets, and then let the vanguards take advantage of the situation to break into the formation. As long as the formation is chaotic, it will be easy to be defeated by the bandits, and everything will be finished by then."
"What should I do?" Wu Zhenliang said in horror.
"I don't know what to do." Gong Daxian smiled bitterly and shook his head. He was not a god, so how could he know the result? But what is certain is that both sides were already red in their eyes at this time. No matter what the result of the battle is, the one who defeated will have a tragic victory.
The subsequent battle situation was indeed as Gong Daxian expected. The Japanese pirates who were red-eyed and attacked one after another, but batch after batch of people fell under the lead bullets of the muskets. Despite the heavy losses, the Japanese pirates did not stop attacking. They rushed forward like gamblers who were red-eyed and rushed forward. At this time, everyone had only one belief in their hearts, that is, to rush to the Ming army's formation and use the weapons in their hands to kill the hateful Ming army. At the same time, they also firmly believed that the muskets in the hands of the Ming army would never be able to keep firing like this.
Hiroshi Kaka was right. When the battle lasted for two quarters of an hour and hundreds of casualties were paid, the firing speed of the Ming army's muskets began to slow down. As a result, the Japanese pirates finally rushed to the Ming army's formation for the first time. Due to the long-term launch of the musket, the barrel of the musket began to turn red. Many musketmen put gunpowder into the barrel and spontaneous combustion occurred. After discovering that the muskets were no longer supported, Yang Feng immediately ordered the musket quadratic formation to begin to retreat.
"The musketeer retreats, and the heavy shield hands move forward."
"Crazy..."
The musketeers who heard the order immediately retreated. At the same time, rows of heavy shield soldiers wearing heavy armor and holding heavy shields immediately stepped forward to replace the musketeers' position.
"Protect..."
With the thunderous shouts, rows of airtight steel walls have been formed.
Just when the heavy shield array was just formed, the Japanese pirates running in the front had already had contact with the heavy shield player.
"assault……"
Sharp sword lights slashed towards the Great Steel Wall like lightning without hesitation.
"Dangdangdangdang..."
Full of confidence, the Japanese pirates who thought they could cut off the opponent's shield with one knife, were surprised to find that their blade had actually hit a hard object, and the power of the recoil shocked their arms numb.
"The shields of these Ming people were actually made of steel."
The Japanese pirates were shocked. They could not imagine how rich people would use steel to cast shields. In Japan, shields are usually made of wood. Even if they are more particular, it is good to wear a layer of cowhide in front of the shield. You should know that many poor families in Japan can't even afford a kitchen knife.
"ha……"
Before the Japanese pirates could come back from their shock, they heard a loud roar from the opposite side. Then, the originally airtight steel jungle suddenly exposed a gap, and then spears with cold light burst out like poisonous snakes, stabbing many Japanese pirates who were still shocked into their blood holes.
"Everyone moves forward..."
"Boom boom boom..."
The neat footsteps sounded, and the steel wall like a forest slowly pushed forward. The unyielding Japanese pirates rushed forward like crazy, desperately attacking the wall with their weapons in their hands, but their attempts were all lost. The wall was so dense and solid that their attacks became useless.
"prick!"
With a "brush!", long spears stabbed out of the steel city wall, stabbing a Japanese pirate who was pounced on him into a bunch of blood gourds.
