Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Start, let's go~"

    The central army of Kansu II's army, with the commander's order, the 30,000 new troops were like a huge cube, marching neatly towards the Ottoman Empire's army.

    ¡°Tap tap~ tap tap~¡±

    The sound of neat steps is like the loudest war drum. Teams of soldiers are lined up neatly, carrying muskets on their backs, and their bright bayonets are shining dazzlingly in the sunlight.

    Thirty thousand musketeers formed the central army, protected by 100,000 new troops on each wing.

    Kansu II also knew clearly that these new troops had just been recruited and were not yet ready for full use. Therefore, the new troops were also arranged in strict queues and formations, using a large number of defensive weapons such as shields and spears to maximize their strength.  The defensive power ensures the safety of the two wings of the Chinese musketeers, allowing the musketeers to fully exert their power.

    "Stand at attention~"

    "Take a break~"

    "First team, prepare, fire~"

    Soon, the musketeers met the Ottoman Empire army that came to block them. They saw the light cavalry rushing towards them in excitement. Thirty thousand new troops were arranged in six columns, each column containing 5,000 people.

    With the commander's order, five thousand muskets opened fire at once, and dense gunfire sounded like fried beans, and billowing smoke filled the air.

    The Ottoman light cavalry that rushed towards the musketeers almost fell down as if they had hit an invisible wall.

    "Second column, ready, fire~"

    After the first row of volleys, the second row of musketeers once again aimed at the newly charged cavalry. With a sound like intensive frying of beans, the newly charged light cavalry also fell down.

    "Stand at attention and start walking~"

    Just two rounds of volleys, like an extremely sharp sickle, harvested the Ottoman Empire light cavalry on the outermost edge in the blink of an eye, causing those Ottoman Empire cavalry who were about to rush over to stop in a hurry.

    But Kansu II has no intention of stopping. If you don¡¯t come over, I will.

    Thirty thousand new troops and 200,000 troops on both wings, accompanied by the command, were like a huge torrent crushing towards everyone in the Ottoman Empire.

    "Block them, we must block them, we must not let them rescue those infantry!"

    Seeing this scene on the battlefield through the telescope, Selim and Ali Pasha became anxious.

    "As expected, they are musketeers modeled after the Ming Empire's army. They are really terrifyingly strong~"

    "These muskets are also made by the Ming Dynasty. They have long range, high accuracy and fast shooting speed~"

    "If we let them crush us like this, our army will be crushed by then."

    "The only ones who can deal with musketeers are musketeers~"

    "Send out the musketeers, Your Highness~"

    Ali Pasha suggested anxiously.

    "No~wait a little longer~"

    "Use cavalry to attack the two wings of the opponent's musketeers, and use heavy cavalry in the middle to charge and tear their musketeers into pieces. I don't believe it. Their muskets can even break the armor."

    Selim thought carefully and shook his head slightly.

    The musketeers are the trump card in the hands of the Ottoman Empire. In the future, they will rely on these musketeers to fight European barbarians. If they have lost all their power with the Egyptians, how will they fight the Europeans when they go back?

    What¡¯s more, he actually has his own plan.

    Selim has always been ambitious. His father Bayezid II is also old, but he has always refused to pass the position to him. This time he finally took control of the army, and he will not let go of such a good opportunity.

    On the battlefield, the Ottoman Empire's army had to continue to eat away at the divided Egyptian infantry while at the same time resisting the rushing musketeers. It was suddenly full of loopholes.

    Coupled with the cannibalization of the infantry, many soldiers came to rob the prisoners and simply tied each other very perfunctorily, and even fought constantly, which gave the Egyptian infantry some breathing space.

    The 30,000 musketeers led by Kansu II were like a torrent, crushing towards the Ottoman Empire army. Along with billowing white smoke and gunshots, no one could resist the musketeers.  Bingfeng.

    When they saw the musketeers marching up in neat steps, the Ottoman army became frightened and did not dare to confront them head-on.

    These musketeers are really terrifying.

    They are like demons from hell, without the slightest expression, wearing uniform clothes and holding in their handsThe musket is like the sickle of death, constantly harvesting humble lives.

    During the process of advancing, if they encounter Ottoman soldiers or military horses who are not dead yet, they will not hesitate to use bayonets to complete the last hit.

    ¡°Boom~boom~¡±

    At this time, the ground shook slightly, and the heavy cavalry regiment from Europe began to charge against the musketeers.

    European heavy cavalry can be regarded as the pinnacle of the cold weapon era.

    This kind of cavalry, whose whole body is surrounded by steel armor, are tall and powerful, and their whole bodies are covered with armor weighing dozens or even hundreds of kilograms.

    Even the horses they ride on are the finest war horses, and they are well protected by armor. The combined weight of man and horse is extremely shocking, so heavy cavalry has always been very slow, and their endurance is also very poor, and they cannot do it at all.  lasting.

    But it is very effective when used to attack the infantry camp, and it can often smash the infantry camp to pieces very easily.

    "First team, prepare, fire~"

    "Second team, prepare, fire~"

    However, the musketeers on the Egyptian side did not have the slightest fear. For the musketeers, the only thing they could do was to keep firing. Fear was of no use. Turning around and running away would only lead to a worse death.

    The only thing they need is to believe in the muskets in their hands, believe in their teammates, and have firm faith. Even if they face heavy cavalry, they have nothing to fear.

    The heavy cavalry are like moving steel fortresses. When they impact, they are like a torrent of steel. The ground is shaking. Everyone is watching, watching the charge of the heavy cavalry.

    Compared with the majestic momentum of the heavy cavalry and the countless recovery records and undefeated myths set in the past, look at the Egyptian musketeers on the opposite side. They are all wearing simple clothes, without any armor protection, and only have one in their hands.  He had a musket, and there wasn't even any defense like horses or shields right in front.

    Anyone will think that the heavy cavalry will definitely win. Under its powerful impact, these musketeers will soon fall apart.

    However, soon, a scene that shocked everyone appeared.

    ¡°Bang~bang~¡±

    With one salvo after another, all the heavy cavalry that rushed over fell down one after another at the fifty-meter line, as if an invisible wall of air blocked them and they could not rush through anyway.

    The incomparable plate armor of later generations could not stop musket bullets at all. Coupled with the tight formation of the musketeers and the rounds of volleys, the abundant vitality continued to be output.

    Once again, I will teach everyone a profound lesson. The era of cold weapons is about to withdraw from the stage of history. The future world will be the era of hot weapons.

    It looked like a very thin line of musketeers, but it was as solid as a copper wall. The bayonets in their hands were not even used.

    Miyun Type 16 is a powerful flintlock musket. It is well-made, extremely reliable, has a fast rate of fire, and its accuracy is much higher than that of previous winning guns. Its armor-piercing ability is far beyond that of a bow and arrow.

    Armor that can resist assassination and slashing with bows, arrows, spears, swords, etc. Under this kind of musket, there is almost no big difference from not wearing armor.

    Round after round of volleys continued to harvest the Ottoman Empire's heavy cavalry. The phalanx composed of 30,000 musketeers was like a steel castle that could never be approached. No matter how powerful the enemy was, it was blocked to death.  Fifty meters away, there is no way to move forward.

    "It's better to dispatch the musketeers. The only ones who can defeat the opponent's musketeers are the musketeers."

    Ali Pasha looked at this scene and it reminded him of the Ming army he had seen back then. The Ottoman army did not believe in evil and insisted on using cavalry to attack the Ming army's musketeers, but was beaten to a pulp.

    The same is true now. Even if it is a powerful heavy cavalry, when facing the musketeers, it is still like waves of wheat blown by the wind, being harvested one after another.

    "Times have changed, and from now on it will be the age of muskets!"

    Ali Pasha closed his eyes. The scene performed today once again proved to the world that the era of cold weapons is coming to an end, and from now on it will be the era of hot weapons.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
