The three rows of musketeers lit the matches one after another and clamped them on the snake-shaped triggers. The two rows in the back were on standby with their guns. The musketeers in the first row quickly raised their muskets to the wooden sign and pulled the trigger.

"Bang bang bang!" The huge sound of gunfire was heard.

Then thick smoke filled the air, blurring his vision.

But one could vaguely hear continuous screams coming from the other side.

Under this round of shooting by the Ming army, the surrender army on the opposite side seemed to have suffered a heavy loss.

Gaudi's surrender army indeed suffered a heavy loss. With just one salvo, fifty sword players fell to the ground.

Due to many flaws in matchlocks, even for well-trained elites, the misfire rate in actual combat is close to 40%, and the misfire rate of most armies is around 50%.

The Ming army had more than 1,000 musketeers, with 350 musketeers in each row, so in fact, only 1,780 matchlocks could successfully fire each round of shooting.

Killed more than fifty sword players at once.

This hit rate has exceeded 30%!

On the other hand, Gaudi's surrender army, due to premature firing, by the time the Ming army approached within fifty steps, the density of firepower output was no longer as good as before. Only less than fifty matchlock guns could successfully fire each time, even if it was

With the same hit rate, the killing efficiency was only a quarter of that of the Ming army.

So the difference is immediately apparent.

After two rounds of six-volume cannon fire, Gaudi's surrender troops had suffered more than 300 casualties.

The smoke completely obscured the view, so the situation on the other side could not be seen clearly.

However, from the constant sound of cannons being fired, the constant hammering of lead bullets through long wooden tablets, and the continuous falling of sword players and musketeers to the ground, we can know that the Ming army showed no signs of collapse.

It even feels like the Ming army's firepower output has become more intensive.

Finally, Gao Di's will to surrender reached the critical point and collapsed.

When the Ming army on the opposite side came over with another row of lead, and it was unclear who took the lead first, the surrender army, which was already in a scattered formation, suddenly fell apart and fled to both sides.

Behind us are the Eight Banners and Han troops, so running back is seeking death.

The only way to survive is to run to the two wings of the battlefield, quickly.

"Don't run away, hold on, come back!" Gao Di still wanted to save his life.

But soon, Gaudí also gave up, turned around and ran towards the canal.
