Now these shield soldiers are treasures for Haoge and the only reliance they can win.

It turned out that they were interested in the Eight Banners Cavalry, and now the cavalry has been proven to be unable to defeat the musketeers, so they can only find out something else.

These shield soldiers may be all the hopes of the Wuchang defenders. If the shield soldiers fail, I believe their fighting will collapse instantly.

"Shoot directly in front of the target."

The officers in charge of the team issued an order, and the soldiers aimed at the huge shields in front of them, but when they fired the gun, the shields only trembled slightly and showed no sign of being pierced.

The muskets of this era are not so penetrating. In addition, there is a layer of mud on the outer layer of the shield. After the mud is dry, the defense will be greatly enhanced.

"Continue to load, don't stand there."

Some soldiers were stunned at this moment. According to the picture in their heads, bullets should have passed through these shields at this moment, killing the soldiers Zuo Menggeng behind the shield, but now they can't penetrate them. Could it be that the other party has a secret weapon?

After hearing the orders from their superiors, these people recovered. From the beginning of the war, they had never had surprise on their faces. Although these people were confused in their eyes at this moment, they still honestly loaded bullets.

Long-term training has allowed them to develop a habit of obeying orders, whether in training camps or in the army, the command of the commander is everything.

Moreover, the army continues to instill a thought in them, that is, obey orders honestly and never do things that are more autonomous.

"Rare for me, you all move forward. As long as you can enter the other party's camp, kill a soldier and reward ten taels of silver."

After Zuo Menggeng saw the first round of attack, the guy immediately became excited and shouted from behind.

Although Haoge looked down on this guy, everything he saw just now was definitely useful. At least the pressure they brought to the Ming soldiers was far greater than that of the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry under Haoge.

"Change the Shanziying and the Shuiyingying for me, and rush forward to me."

Originally, Zuo Menggeng sent only one camp of troops, with about 3,000 people.

In fact, this guy trained three battalions of troops, but he was unwilling to take it out just now. After verification, he immediately took out all the remaining people.

Under the cover of tens of thousands of cavalry and infantry, more than 10,000 shield soldiers began to press the entire army towards the Ming position.

It's true that there is a backup plan.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince has ordered everyone to prepare. Without the orders above, no one shall fire."

The artillery has already been maintained and will soon launch a shelling attack on Zuo Menggeng's army. Who knows that the Crown Prince's order has come down.

"I said to the squad leader, what does our prince mean? I just blamed our artillery for not being prepared. Now that we have several shells ready, we will definitely be able to kill these shield soldiers. With their broken thing, they still want to resist our shells, they will never dream of doing this."

A new artillery recruit touched his big head and said, "Aren't the front lines all over the place?"

It is said that they should provide fire support quickly. His Royal Highness, and he also listened to him when he spoke.

Artillery is the soul of soldiers. Without the support of artillery, one-third of the battlefield has been lost. But at this critical moment, why just keep them on alert?

"You know, if you can understand, won't your place be in the Military Affairs Office of His Royal Highness? Do you still need to bring me shells here?"

The squad leader said angrily, checking the artillery in front of him while counting the number of shells behind him, thinking about how long he could last later. If the number was not enough, he would have to let these guys come back to bring a batch.

"I'm just curious. You are different from the squad leader. You have been in the army for more than half a year. Let me tell you what this means?"

The recruits were scolded and were not in a hurry. Anyway, we are newcomers after we got here, so we had to learn more from these old people.

If we can't even understand this, we're still making a fuss here. It doesn't matter if we scold us a few times, let alone our skills are learned from the class leader.

"I can't tell you what the meaning is. If I can't understand this next time, be careful I will beat you up."

Under the explanation of the squad leader, the boy finally understood that His Royal Highness wanted to catch them all in one go.

Why not use artillery at this time? Once artillery is used, the shield soldier cannot stop it at all. Perhaps this thing can block the bullets in the hands of ordinary soldiers.

If you want to block the shells, even if they thicken them three times, it will not be of much use. Just the huge shock wave can break up these people.

Now only one battalion of shield soldiers has entered the range. If we fire rashly, these thousands of people will definitely explain here, but the shield soldiers behind will definitely retreat immediately. They are not fools, how could they jump into the fire pit?

Since we want to fight, we have to fight them all in one place and we cannot leave a tail behind.

"After all, it's His Royal Highness, I'm considering more than those of us."

The recruits were very impressed after hearing this.

"What you admire is that there is something else. We don't fire the enemy. On the one hand, we will gather the enemy, and on the other hand, we will also test our infantry. Today, there are many new recruits. Those veterans have nothing to worry about. What we worry most is that they are a new recruit like you. Today is also an opportunity to experience it, which allows them to have a good experience on the battlefield."

After the squad leader finished speaking, he looked at the infantry formation in the distance, which should be less than one hundred meters away from the shield soldiers.

Just as the artillery squad leader said, the veteran had nothing to be afraid of, and it was just like before, loading bullets according to the rules, then aiming at the enemy in front of him, and following the command of the commander to shoot.

And the veterans have already seen that although these shields are very strong on the surface, if they have received several shootings, they may not last long.

As for those new recruits, they are all afraid of death now.

It turned out that all the enemies fell down when they were close to 80 meters, but now they entered the 80 meters range and the enemy was still in line. How could our defense line withstand it?
