v8 Chapter 66: 1 moment of life and death

Jiang Chuanying was riding on the horse, even though he was in his fifties, he had a silver thread, but his spirit was very good. The army of the transfer team was in front, and he crossed the horse side, waving Colt's revolver in his hand.

   Times are changing, and Jiang Chuan Yinglong is still a fan of foreigners, so he has naturally given up on the sword. For him, the gun is fast after seven steps; within seven steps, the gun is accurate and fast. What kind of knife do you use then, just ask him to eat bullets and finish the job.

   You have a heavenly sword, and I have Colt!

Although it was the first time that the soldiers of the Chuanxi team saw a real battle, Yinglong Jiang, who wielded the spirit injection stick and dangling beside them every day, was on the scene. Compared with the British soldiers who had not seen the US army, it was obviously Jiang Chuanying. The dragon is even more terrifying. As a result, the queue was tight, and the military's morale was strengthened, and even the morale was never weakened.

  Isn’t it the U.S. Army? They still have one nose and two eyes. Everyone squirts and died after taking a gun. Moreover, the U.S. military has not yet used rifled guns on a large scale, and there are no Miner rounds, not to mention Winchester rifled guns. Everyone is a musket, nothing more than the difference between Dutch and American products.

   "Aim before shooting!" Jiang Chuan Yinglong shouted at the artillery on both wings of the team.

   Successively inherited from Takashima Ryusai artillery artillery and the Dutch officer regiment artillery artillery training team artillery, the six-pound Napoleon cavalry artillery at the sea is rowing and advancing US small boats.

   "Let it go!" The command, the left and right gunners whistled loudly, and the Napoleon cannon fired one after another.

   "Keep playing!"

   The already skilled artillery, tactical action is so smooth, the commander ordered, just shoot. It's nothing more than shooting a fixed target before, but this time shooting a moving target. Can hit the best, can't hit is also hit, the hit rate is always a metaphysical existence, no matter how good the design and training, it will never be better than the rapid changes on the battlefield.

   The U.S. military boat is at least three or four hundred meters away from the coast. If you don’t take this opportunity to hit it, what opportunity to hit it? As long as one overturns one, it is equivalent to reducing the combat effectiveness of 20 US soldiers. Isn't this easier than killing 20 people with a bayonet?

   It may have been fighting in the jungles of the southeast. When Pedro trained soldiers before, he thought that tens of thousands of people would fight on a vast battlefield with limited conditions, so I won’t mention it. But in a conflict of several hundred people, or one to two thousand people, every effort should be made to find shelter.

  The so-called tactics of queuing and shooting in a complex environment is very stupid. The soldiers in the transfer team learned this very well, so they unreasonably demolished the common people's homes, and built simple fortifications with rafter beams and door panels.

   Don't underestimate the half-man high fortifications, they can still play a big role in battle. Except for the only disadvantage of being scolded by the people of Fujin, it is not bad for the transfer team.

  Jiang Chuan Yinglong has promised to pay them the corresponding money for building houses after the war, and also hired local people to perform auxiliary logistics work. The cash is given so happily that the people finally stop making trouble.

   right now said that it was blocking the landing, but in fact it did not mean blocking it directly at the beach. The so-called "half-crossing and hitting it" does not mean that the enemy will be hit when he is crossing the river, but that part of the enemy is to be put on the shore, and the remaining part of the enemy is still in the water.

   It is necessary to deliberately leave a beach that is hundreds of meters wide to allow the U.S. army to land, or to let the U.S. army land on purpose. Then they attacked the U.S. troops that landed, preventing them from forming a normal ranks and launching an offensive. The people in front were messed up on the beach and couldn't attack, and those who disembarked at the back could only follow the chaos.

   At this time, the artillery bombarded the coastal waters behind, while the infantry fired at the American troops on the beach, creating further chaos. The army with a little **** collapsed at this point, and then retreated and ran away. The more stubborn army will try to counter it.

   how to counter it?

   Hand-to-hand combat!

   The US Marine Corps has just experienced the US-Mexico war. Although its combat effectiveness may not be comparable to that of the veteran powers of Britain and France, it still has the mentality that it should have.

   More than a dozen U.S. military officers, brandishing knives and guns, loudly inspired the still chaotic U.S. military. Then took the lead and swung a knife to launch an assault on the Chuanxi team. With an officer taking the lead, the soldiers naturally bravely marched forward, and then rushed towards the Chuanxi team in a slightly chaotic formation.

The bayonet battle extremely tested the morale and fighting spirit of the army. It is different from the poor townsmen who were recruited just to eat their food in history. The current training team is recruited from the second son and third son of the "Miaozi Sabre" family. To put it bluntly, "Liangjiazi", eager to obtain rewards from the shogunate with martial arts, and then was awarded the title of Zhixing, listed in the banner, and prospered from generation to generation.

   Compared with more advanced doctrines or righteousness, in 1853, the morale of Liang's army was absolutely unambiguous under the condition of sufficient soldiers!

   After the last round of gun shooting, Jiang Chuan Yingyuan stood firmly on the horse, dangling the whistle in his mouth, alerting the soldiers and preparing to fight. The U.S. army, roaring and charging up, approached, and everyone discovered that the U.S. army was actually a U.S. army. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

  The enemy is tall, looking down on our soldiers!

   The U.S. Army, which has an average of more than 1.6 meters per capita, suppresses the Japanese Army, which has an average of more than 1.5 meters per capita. People are tall and big, naturally strong and strong, and after actual combat, they are skilled in cooperation. Even attacking the fortified and defensive passers-by team still did not lose much.

   Yinglong Jiang, who inspires the soldiers, is not idle, holding the revolver, and shooting at the American army coming up. The shooting accuracy of the revolver at a close range of 20 to 30 meters is still acceptable, and Yinglong Jiang has practiced for a long time, which is very powerful. Six bullets killed at least three U.S. soldiers, one shot and one head crashed.

   Colt is a little troublesome to reload, but Yinglong Jiang Chuan is the home of Qiben, and the family has money, so naturally there is a gun in the bag of the other gun. He threw the fired gun to his family, ordered it to reload, and lowered his head to take another revolver.

   Colonel Prebble, who just called out to charge, has fallen behind the American army for a while. This is not just running, but being "protected" by the brave American soldiers to the back. Since everyone took the initiative to protect him, Preble Shigetaka didn't feel embarrassed, he was behind the command with peace of mind.

   He clearly saw an elderly officer in the training team, standing high on the horse, directing soldiers to fight. Obviously this person is the senior commander on Futtsu's side. Even if it is not the biggest one, it is definitely not a small officer who can command hundreds of new troops.

   Incomplete security is what the shogunate’s important staff!

   Preble summoned a soldier, without other orders, only said one sentence: "Aim at him!"
