"Is the other party prepared to exchange their lives for my muskets?" Facing the intensive charge of the shogunate's teams of one hundred and one hundred people, Liu Baiyu ordered continuous volleys. In fact, the wealthy Liu Baiyu usually equipped the musketeers.

Two reserve muskets, and a skilled loader - the endurance is far beyond that of the Ming Dynasty musketeers, who had one gun for each person, and the guns often exploded!

The tactic used against ordinary musketeers to make their muskets ineffective due to heat is completely useless against tall, handsome and rich musketeers like Liu Baiyu - in fact, Liu Baiyu also used common sense when playing with musketeers entering the chariot.

To misjudge one's true and false meanings.

While the Japanese charged in front of the car formation regardless of casualties, the piles of dead bodies also blocked Liu Baiyu's sight of the musketeers - which made Liu Baiyu frown - it was indeed theoretical that the musketeers were superior to the archers.

The sight of the musketeers is too easily blocked. Not to mention the crude method of adding sand and gravel to a cart. If too many are killed, the corpses will also play a role in increasing the offensive force... Fortunately, I have no control over the outcome.

The trump card lies with the Musketeers!

At the same time, the Ashigaru people finally rushed to the car formation, but after rushing over, they discovered a problem. Liu Baiyu's car seemed to be made of iron plates, and random pokes to the car body would only cause a few dings.

It makes the chariot look ugly, but does no harm to the chariot itself.

Of course, the fact that this chariot is so heavy and so light seems to be related to the soft wheels [tires] of this chariot, and the soft wheels of this chariot will explode directly if it is stabbed with a gun. It seems to be broken - but it seems that this chariot is broken.

It affects the mobility of the chariots. It happens that they are now forming a formation and they don’t want to move in the first place!

And when the ashigaru rushed up and poked at them, the distance was too close, and the ashigaru with or without cover became the best target for the musketeers - at such a close distance, even if they were wearing steel armor, it would be difficult not to be broken by the projectiles.

, not to mention the shogunate ashigaru who only have rattan armor or even cloth armor. Under normal circumstances, the ashigaru who reluctantly rushes up only has a chance to make a few moves, and then is shot down and loses the ability to move...

A few smart ones, close to the blind spot created by the chariots for the musketeers, want to attack the iron chains connecting the chariots and cut off the chains to destroy the chariot formation - but behind each of these chains are two people holding weapons.

Guarded by spearmen with short spears of about two meters, the two short spears are extremely dangerous. One attacks the chest and the other attacks the lower abdomen.

Even if the ashigaru wearing cloth and rattan armor is very skilled, he will not be too flexible. One of the two short guns must be hit. And the short guns of these front row short gunners are all steel products redeemed by the plane merchant system. The ashigaru is thin.

Cloth armor and leather armor are nothing more than a piece of paper facing them. Under normal circumstances, they just scream and life passes away.

And even if the Ashigaru risked their lives to look at the iron chain, the iron chain was a modern all-steel product exchanged by the merchant system of Liu Baiyu's plane. It couldn't be cut off by the garbage in Ashigaru's hands - some people even looked at it for a long time.

, the knife in his hand broke, and the chain was fine...

In fact, the best way to defeat the strong with the weak is to violently attack the opponent's headquarters, logistics warehouse and other weak links. Holding on to this strategy often increases the difficulty and cost for the attacker, but at the same time, it also increases the possibility of a comeback for the defender.

Greatly reduced.

But Liu Baiyu also had other considerations! Tokugawa Iemitsu thought again - suddenly he felt that he had learned Liu Baiyu's tactics, simply because among the samurai from various places, knights and musketeers accounted for the majority, and these arms were obviously not suitable.

When it comes to siege - one must have his direct subordinate Ashigaru as the vanguard.

Huh, Liu Baiyu, do you think my family is that kind of narrow-minded person? Tokugawa Iemitsu thought he had seen through Liu Baiyu's trump card, and decisively ordered:

"Give the order, the shogunate's ashigaru attack the car formation, and the others are on standby, ready at any time. As long as a gap is opened, they will rush in and launch a general attack!"

Tokugawa Iemitsu made up his mind!

At the same time, in Liu Baiyu's main formation, Murasaki Hideji and Kuroshima Hitoshi knelt on the ground anxiously and refused to get up:

"My lord, there are too many people in the shogunate. Should we let Murasaki Hideyori and General Kaiying take action first?"

"No rush, no rush, numbers and morale are very important in war, but equipment is more important..." Liu Baiyu said seemingly calmly.

Although it is said to be a knight's war, Liu Baiyu actually did a lot of tricks. For example, quite a few musketeers in the chariot were equipped with miniguns. Although this thing looks similar to the current flintlock gun, its shooting accuracy is

, the power is not comparable to that of the flintlock gun - the biggest feature of the minigun is that its range is longer than the current cannon, which eliminates the shogunate's choice to cheat and push the cannon forward to blast the car formation with firepower.

Liu Baiyu himself left an extra trick, that is, under unfavorable conditions, he lit a fire in the middle of the car array, allowing the Christian samurai led by Shikawa Hideyori to be bombarded by the battleship commanded by Haiying.

Set fire to the Edo city - with this move, Liu Baiyu became invincible. I really hope that Liu Baiyu, a small citizen time traveler who is afraid of death, has the chivalry spirit to die for honor, -

Isn't this bullshit?

It should be said that the professional level of the Japanese samurai was much better than that of the military attaches of the Ming Dynasty. At least the Ashigaru, under the leadership of the samurai, had quite flexible tactics.

Just like the infantry of the Qing Dynasty dealt with the musketeers of the Ming Dynasty, a few hundred meters away from Liu Baiyu's position, the shogunate's ashigaru at the front was also a simple cart with bags filled with sand and soil piled up.

Things are not very protective against ancient lead bullets

It's an ordinary big one - the Manchus actually relied on this to get close to the musketeers. If it was like in the movie, precious horses were exchanged for the opponent's lead bullets, only the Mongols could afford it [and also

The bad horse has to charge forward...]

Unexpectedly, although Japan has been at peace for many years, its military equipment has not fallen. Liu Baiyu put aside his contempt and issued an order:

"Musketeers don't fire without orders, don't be afraid! Our tanks are made of steel plates inside and are absolutely strong!"

Liu Baiyu's musketeers are all specially trained to be courageous. They don't have the bad habit of the Ming army to use muskets to embolden their courage when they see the enemy when they see the enemy, regardless of whether they are within range or not - to put it bluntly, it is a confrontation between the Red Party and the Red Party.

In the era of the northwest warlord Ma Jiajun, if modern single-shot guns were fired randomly at the cavalry, they would suffer a big loss. According to the Ming army

It is hard to say whether the method of using firearms, let alone a flintlock gun, or even a single-shot gun of the 20th century can withstand a cavalry charge! In fact, on the Chinese battlefield where automatic rifles were not popular during the Anti-Japanese War, the cavalry still outnumbered the infantry.

Hard work, the end of the cavalry was automatic firearms, and the firearms of the seventeenth century were still far from automatic firearms!

"Don't shoot. Our vehicles are made of steel plates. They can't damage them. Don't fire without orders!" The junior officers comforted the musketeers.

Fortunately, Liu Baiyu's musketeers had practiced fighting in tanks many times. They knew that their tanks were very strong. Except for a few who were really nervous and fired a few shots, most of them were extremely calm and waited for orders.

.

Although there are thick bags of sand and soil on the cart, Liu Baiyu's musket looks similar to the flintlock gun of this era. In fact, the penetration and accuracy are far beyond it, so there are still several carts.

The unfortunate guy fell down and was on the ground

Wailing----because the Japanese saw the horror of Liu Baiyu's collapse, they made the cart quite huge. Naturally, the people pushing the cart were also rare strong men among the short Japanese. These strong men rolled on the ground,

The wailing look is quite spectacular.

"Is Bushido really so high on morale?" Liu Baiyu, who was hiding in a large car on the front line without listening to others' advice, took a breath of air. Under the supervision of the Japanese samurai behind him, he didn't care about his wailing companions on the ground and recommended him at a constant speed.

Fifty meters away from Liu Baiyu's car formation, the Ashigaru directly under the shogunate rushed over with a wave-shaped skirmish line!

This move is a good way to reduce the casualties caused by the volley of musketeers, but Liu Baiyu's musketeers still did not fire in the face of this wavy skirmish line!

"You're so well-trained! You can actually keep your composure!" Tokugawa Iemitsu nodded in admiration.

The fatal flaw of firearms in this era is that the muskets cannot be used due to overheating of the barrel after being fired multiple times. Whether it was the Ming army or the Japanese army, many muskets often could not support long-term combat, so the muskets were fired

It needs to be cooled and dissipated after a certain period of time - in this case, shooting a projectile randomly is not just a waste of time, but it means that it will not be able to effectively attack the enemy for a certain period of time. This is basically a problem in a fierce battlefield.

It's almost like committing suicide.

Of course, everyone understands the truth, but when seeing an enemy charging towards them with weapons on the battlefield, a person's first instinct determines that it is very easy for a musketeer to shoot out of range and be brave - this requires a lot of training. In fact, Spain

The pikemen outside the square are also responsible for stabilizing the musketeers - like the Ming Dynasty, the musketeers were placed in the first row and directly faced the opponent's cavalry attack. It was really very difficult to prevent the musketeers from firing randomly.

Difficult task...

Tokugawa Iemitsu's musketeers can also achieve similar calmness, but that is the result of decades of training. Liu Baiyu is said to have fled to Shandong alone from the Northeast. He obviously does not have any hereditary private soldiers. How can these musketeers do it?

What's the result of practice?

The samurai leading the front naturally had no time to care about this. Although Liu Baiyu's musketeers did not fire, which really made these samurai feel that something was wrong, they still issued the order to attack according to the code of conduct!

Just when Liu Baiyu's chariot array was approaching thirty meters, the musketeer squad leader's typing sounded. There was no spectacular hail of bullets, but rhythmic firing in turns. Anyway, at such a close distance, passing by

It is impossible to miss in shooting training, and there is no need to compensate for accuracy at the expense of salvo fire...

One by one, the Japanese Ashigaru fell with the sound of gunshots, almost all of them fell on the death line of 20 to 30 meters. Although it was not surprising that the first batch of attacking troops were wiped out, but the whole army was wiped out at the same time.

It is unacceptable to be close to the opponent's car formation and unable to detect the reality of the opponent's car formation...

"Launch an intensive charge in advance!" Tokugawa Iemitsu changed the order to the warrior who was passing the order!

"Sir, is it too early? After all, there were only a dozen squad casualties..." Yagyu Shizumo advised.

"It's getting late. If we don't force out the opponent's defensive car formation early, we will die in vain. Also, please invite Mr. Date to come over. I need to listen to his opinion."

Tokugawa Iemitsu sighed, feeling that he did not dare to live in the Warring States Period after all, and he just took many things for granted, so he asked Date Masamune, the only remaining old man from the Warring States Period, to give him guidance.

Originally, Tokugawa Iemitsu didn't want to miss the opportunity to weaken a powerful daimyo like the Date family. However, Liu Baiyu's response to this attack was extremely strange, so he had no choice but to ask Date Masamune to give him advice----

Of course, the price is that the Date family can use the excuse that the head of the family is absent and the command is inconvenient. This is the inevitable price to pay.

"Mr. Ida, what do you think we should do next?"

Tokugawa Iemitsu also felt really bad this time, so he put away his arbitrary temper and began to question Date Masamune without shame.

"General Iemitsu has done a good job, there is nothing wrong with being old..." Although Date Masamune is already in his fifties, and in this era when the average life expectancy is very low, he is basically in the category of dying at any time, but he is still in good spirits, has bright eyes, and is agile.

----But this old ghost has been with the Tokugawa Third Generation for a long time, and has long developed a naughty temper. This time he followed the same pattern again...

"Mr. Date, I sincerely ask you for advice!" Tokugawa Iemitsu emphasized the words sincerely, and then his sharp eagle eyes met Date Masamune's eyes!

This little brat is harder to take care of than his father and grandfather! Date Masamune cursed in his heart, but he smiled apologetically on his face:

"Our army has an overwhelming numerical advantage, and the enemy relies on the power of muskets - but muskets are not the only thing. As long as the opponent is forced to fire continuously, the barrel of the gun will become hot, and soon it will be like a fire stick... Haha!

"

This tactic is correct in military terms, but the question is why must we consume a large number of ashigaru directly under the shogunate!?

Tokugawa Iemitsu mentally summoned a fool, but on the surface he looked at the old cunning guy Date Masamune with a sincere face.

Date Masamune blushed, and he knew what Tokugawa Iemitsu wanted to write. Anyway, the Date family would not really go into battle this time, so how many people died in other vassals has nothing to do with Date Masamune?

So Date Masamune made another move:
To be continued...
