Chapter 241: Firearms are ferocious

Xiao Lu successfully escaped from the Song army and was even favored by the Song court in one fell swoop. He had the opportunity to go to Lin'an to show his skills. At least in Lu Yijian's opinion, this speculative adventure was effective.

Moreover, Chief Executive Mao did not seem to be too guilty and left room for everything. Perhaps he could really get along with the Song Dynasty court and crossing the border in the future and be a second setter needed by both sides. If this is the case, it would be really ideal.

Unlike Lu Yijian, Chen Yujie does not have so many tricks. Since he has sent himself to the Song Dynasty, he should work hard to build a generation of strong military forces in the Song Dynasty. He did not expect Lu Yijian to succeed in his three-legged kung fu. Chen Yujie felt that since he came to the Song Dynasty, he had some military skills among the time travelers, or he was slightly inferior to Ma Fen, but it may also have their own strengths. After all, he should also improve the military strength of the Song Dynasty in all aspects. This is the so-called responsibility!

It is precisely because of this that Chen Yujie chose Yue Ju's team, which is a heartfelt wish. First of all, of course, because Yue Fei's grandfather was the famous Yue Fei. Secondly, it was because of his prejudice against Wu Xi and Guo Ni. Wu Xi betrayed the Song Dynasty and ended up shamelessly. Wu Xi in history was an exaggeration in fact, a coward who escaped at the last minute. He hoped that these two people would lead out a strong army from the Song Dynasty. At least Chen Yujie thought it was impossible.

Therefore, Chen Yujie had only the only choice, which was to partner with Yue Ju.

However, Yue Ju is a traditional military general, and his talent is far less than that of Naizu. Therefore, at the beginning, Chen Yujie was not very popular in Yue Ju's army.

Fortunately, Chen Yujie's advantage was there. When the first batch of twenty muskets were sent to Yue Ju's army, Chen Yujie began to have the right to speak. Yue Ju had no experience in training muskets, and Chen Yujie was the two professionals who were the most skilled in playing guns among the time travelers. Therefore, Chen Yujie served as the instructor of the musket team since then.

Before going to Luzon, Yue Ju's troops had increased to 2,000, of which 180 were firearms teams, Chen Yujie was the head of the capital, equipped with thirty eighty-nine shotguns, thirty ninety rifled rifles, and two 40 cannons and one 60 cannons. According to the Song system, one "du" had 100 people, but in order to train more firearms as soon as possible, Chen Yujie was strengthened into a reinforced capital, and the number increased to 180. Chen Yujie thought to himself that his identity was finally equivalent to the leader of a company in later generations.

In the previous campaign to sweep Taiwan indigenous people, only ten shotguns and ten rifled guns were initially equipped. Even if there were only twenty muskets, and one single musket that had to be pulled out and loaded with bullets was fired. It seemed to be worse than Hanyang's manufacturing, but it played an unusual role when dealing with the indigenous people.

The indigenous people's equipment is already very primitive. They are fighting against the Song Dynasty regular army equipped with armor and various high-quality cold weapons. The confrontation is not on the same level. Moreover, the indigenous people in Taiwan are still in the tribal stage, and the tribes are very small. If they can piece together two thousand young and strong people, they are big tribes. They are completely no match for the Song Dynasty regular army. Therefore, the Song Dynasty's official army launched a sweeping operation in Taiwan without any suspense, just like the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves.

During this round of sweeping operation, the power of the firearm was just conducted in actual combat. Given whether the opponent's force was worth mentioning, the Song Dynasty's sweeping army was simply fearless when testing the power of the firearm. Facing the ignorant and fearless indigenous mobs, the Song Dynasty's official army arranged the battle formation in an orderly manner, and then waited for the other party to rush forward. Because of the armor, the indigenous bone arrows were very pitiful, and their long-range lethality could basically be ignored. Because of this,

The musket team commanded by Chen Yujie did not fire a musket volley until the native strikers reached within 30 meters. At this distance, the effect of the rifled guns was not even as good as a shotgun. Of course, the bullets of the rifled guns could be fatal in one blow, but the iron sand shot out by the ten shotguns was like a bunch of black fog poplars. The natives were basically unprotected. After the shotgun was fired, the two or three rows of chargers in front were injured by the iron sand almost instantly, and a large area was swept down.

The natives who rushed in behind were stunned. My god! He Qianfang suddenly had lightning and thunder. The e-commerce thunder was just fine, but they were still smoked. Then the brothers in front fell down, dead, injured, and those who fell to the ground were not dead. They were so hurt that they couldn't bear to see it. The natives didn't know what kind of magic weapon it was for a while, but it was seriously beyond their imagination. As a result, the row of shots came down, and the large gang of natives behind were scared and ran away.

This is just twenty muskets shooting, and the effect is unimaginable. After witnessing this, Yue Ju had to admit that the musket was unparalleled at least intimidating the indigenous people.

From then on, Yue Ju began to pay attention to the new weapon of musket.

In the late stage of the sweeping raid, the muskets of the muskets increased to fifty. Not only that, a 40mm cannon was also allocated to Yue Ju's team. In this way, the natives fell into fear. After that, they were almost ineffective. The natives descended in the wind and were swept away until the mature ones were swept away, leaving only the uncultivated deep mountain livery. Those livery hid in the mountains. The difficulty of swept was too high, and it was a bit unworthy of the cost. In the end, the swept had to stop.

After a month of rest, Chen Yujie went on an expedition again. This time he advanced to Luzon. According to official statement, it was to send troops to Vishenna to capture the pirate Shen Shi. Shen Shi was originally a giant sea bandit who caused trouble for the Song Dynasty. Under the encirclement and suppression of the Song Dynasty's naval army, he disappeared. Later, he found out that Shen Shi rushed to Vishenna and hid in Vishenna.

Since Visana harbored the wanted bandits of the Song Dynasty, this time he launched an army to question him, he was famous for his troops.

Vishena and Foliru, one at the east end of Luzon and the other at the west end of Luzon. In this era, there were many tribes in the Philippines, and these tribes were hardly considered formal countries. However, Vishena and Foliru had already had the prototype of the country, which was better than the tribes that were purely just one by one on Taiwan.

Because of this, the Song army did not dare to be careless. This time, except for Wu Xi's troops, Guo Ni and Yue Ju each led 2,000 troops to land in Luzon in two groups, and launched an attack on Vishena at the same time.

The login time was chosen in the early morning, but Yue Ju logged in the road at the beginning. Because a team of people from Vishena quickly launched an attack on this login site.

Chen Yujie had just arrived ashore, and there were only twenty people who had landed on the musket team. Some of the other men were rowing to the dock, while others were climbing down the rope net to move to the boat. Chen Yujie thought to himself that the soldiers of Vishena were really quick to react, and they actually responded so quickly.

On his side, two of them have already reached ashore. With the 20 people from the musket team, there are already 220 people on the shore. The opponent's rushing up is estimated to be only five or six hundred. Judging from the opponent's equipment, they are wearing armor and holding swords and spears in their hands. Although they are better than the natives of Taiwan, they can be seen that they are far inferior to the Song Dynasty in terms of equipment.

Chen Yujie ordered the "array" and the 220 people who had landed immediately formed two square arrays. The 20 musketeers stood in front of the two military arrays, which looked particularly eye-catching. The musketeers were all wearing white armor, which looked particularly majestic and handsome. The white armor was a newly made stamped enamel fish scale armor. The biggest advantage was that it was lightweight, but its protection was not inferior to the traditional fish scale iron armor worn by the 200 Song soldiers behind. This was of course a special treatment for musketeers. Chen Yujie's explanation was that wearing light armor was easy to aim.

Yue Ju is still on the big ship at this moment. Chen Yujie is currently carrying the important task of landing in and establishing a bridgehead. By the way, Chen Yujie has never commanded the battle independently with real swords and guns. Before that, there was Yue Ju's formation behind him. He was not commanding alone, so Chen Yujie was a little unstable at this moment.

In fact, the scouts sent out have already discovered that the radius of Vishena is only a team of Vishena soldiers within a few miles. As long as they resist their offensive for twenty minutes, once the subsequent troops land one after another, the squad of Vishena soldiers will be the dishes they sent.

Chen Yujie took a long breath, stabilized himself for a moment, and finally calmed down, pretended to be nothing, waiting for the enemy to rush into the range.

Twenty muskets only have a chance to fire once, and their firepower is still a little weak. Chen Yujie only hopes that the subsequent musket soldiers can come up as soon as possible.

The Vishena soldiers shot a round of bows and arrows and then launched a charge. This round of bows and arrows only caused minor injuries to several Song troops, and the musketeers only injured one.

Chen Yujie was estimating the distance, sixty meters, forty meters, and thirty meters. When he reached the distance of thirty meters, Chen Yujie could clearly see the frenzy in the eyes of the enemy. He couldn't help but want to order the shooting, but he immediately thought that the opponent was wearing armor, and the iron sand shot out by the shotgun was limited at a distance of more than thirty meters, so he probably could not penetrate the armor.

Until the enemy's front rank reached a distance of twenty meters and even the opponent's nose could see clearly, Chen Yujie's whole body was a little stiff, but he still shouted in time:

"Shoot, volley!"

Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang, a row of gunfire sounded, and then a scream came from the eyes. When the smoke dissipated, I saw that there were at least forty or fifty soldiers on the other side fell to the ground, and there were endless screams of howling. The strange thing was that the Vishana soldiers behind were all stunned on the spot, neither advancing nor retreating, and were stunned there.

But at this moment, the nineteen musketeers had already loaded again. Although this type of lever-type rifled and loaded musket can only load one bullet at a time, there is one advantage, that is, the loading is very fast, one break, and after loading, it can be closed again with a snap and then fire again.

Chen Yujie looked ahead, and he just loaded the bullets based on his feelings. He was almost the last one after loading. After loading the bullets, Chen Yujie immediately raised his gun and shouted without hesitation:

"Shoot, shoot."

Another round of gunfire shot over, and another exaggerated tragic sound came. It was obvious that dozens of enemy soldiers on the opposite side fell down. Chen Yujie was focused at this moment, without waiting for the smoke to dissipate, just shouting, "Hurry, load, shoot freely."

But when the smoke of gunpowder dissipated, he saw that except for the fallen soldiers, all the other soldiers had already run away.

Chen Yujie breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about it was a little scared. If the Vishen soldiers had risked their lives to charge after the first round of shooting, the consequences of the two sides would be unimaginable. After all, there were many enemy soldiers and they would attack the few with the masses. Maybe they would still be in the hands of these barbarians, which would be worthless.

Of course, unfortunate things did not happen. It seems that the other party was stunned by the firearms at the first time. Haha, this era is really an era of invincible muskets. I don’t know how to deal with the Jin soldiers.
