"Charge!"
"Musket sword! Hurry up and mount the blunderbuss!"
……
On the drill ground, when the two armies were only thirty steps away from each other, the generals of both sides almost simultaneously gave the order to stop shooting, put on their blunderbuss, and prepare for close combat.
At this moment, the gap between the two armies was revealed.
It was obvious that the Qi Family's Army had not trained well enough in this segment.
It was a mess when the soldiers were installing the blunderbuss. Some had already installed the blunderbuss, while others were still installing them in a panic.
Moreover, after the soldiers of the Qi Family's Army had installed the blunderbuss, they realized that the distance of the shooting formation was not enough.
If the blunderbuss were raised at an angle, it would stab the comrades in front of it.
This caused a great deal of chaos in the formation.
"Charge!"
"Hurry up and get on the blunderbuss. Open up the distance, open up the distance!"
……
The Qi Family's Army generals watched as the new soldiers stopped shooting. Under the command of the lower ranking generals, they started to install the blunderbuss and swords from the back. During the installation process, they had already pulled apart the formation.
They couldn't help but feel anxious.
One by one, the hundred-men held their weapons in their hands and shuttled behind the soldiers under their command. They were angry and anxious as they urged the soldiers loudly. At the same time, they used their scabbards to ruthlessly whip the soldiers who made mistakes.
On the stage.
Qi Jin could not help but shake his head." Previously, the shooting competition was all about bravery and endurance. We still could not see anything. On our side, we are old soldiers who have been through many battles. They are already used to the tragic scene in front of us. Their performance is better than the new army.”
" But now, the lack of training has been exposed. After the drill, we must be strict in this aspect. If anyone doesn't train seriously, I'll make them leave the Qi Family's Army!”
Qi Jin was truly enraged.
The difference between the two sides was too great.
The Qi Family's Army was in a mess, and it was simply unbearable to look at.
"Kill them!"
In just a few words, shouts and shouts suddenly erupted from the side of the new army. Everyone saw Zhu Yu suddenly raise his commanding saber and point it at the Qi Family's Army opposite him.
Ta, ta, ta…
The soldiers of the new army moved in an orderly manner, their blunderbuss and swords tilted upwards, forming a tight formation like a hedgehog as they trotted towards the Qi Family's Army.
"Brothers, charge!"
"Don't let these recruits look down on you!"
……
In the midst of the chaos, among the Qi Family's army, some of the aristocrats were the first to be unable to withstand the pressure of the Xin army's formation. They shouted hysterically in the chaos and rushed out with their handguns and swords.
Such a chain reaction soon infected the entire Qi Family's Army.
The Qi Family's Army, which only had around 600 men left, instantly charged towards the new army in a chaotic manner.
The new army was not as good as the Qi Family's Army in terms of shooting, so they suffered more losses in the early stages.
There were only 500 people left.
However, the moment the two armies clashed, dozens of Qi Family's Army soldiers were killed by the swords of the new army.
The blunderbuss were made of wood. Although they would not cause fatal damage, most of those who were stabbed would voluntarily withdraw from the battle.
However, the Qi Family's Army's valor and the killing skills they mastered on the battlefield could not be underestimated.
Although the formation was scattered, it firmly blocked the attack of the new army.
The two formations were anxious for a moment.
In the crowd, Daishan was shocked.
He and Chu Ying thought that the new army would lose, and he felt that the new army would lose miserably. He never thought that the new army would be able to persist until now.
"They're not far from collapsing. In the end, they're still a group of recruits!”Daishan commented to himself when he noticed that the new army was being pushed back by the Qi Family's Army.
However, Zhu Ke's new army was able to achieve such results in half a year, which was already extremely shocking to Daishan.
In his estimation, they should have collapsed from the cruel scene when they shot each other.
However, there was none.
This proved that in just half a year of training, Zhu Ke had already given this army a fearless will!
On the stage.
Jintai Shi's face was pale as he looked at the battle cries on the drill ground.
"Half a year.”
Dergler listened to Ama's soft muttering, and his expression was also very bad. Looking at the recruits on the drill ground, he vaguely felt that if they fell into Zhu Ke's hands, they could forget about escaping.
"Nephew, it seems that Zhu Yu can't hold on any longer.”Ye Bangrong looked at the situation on the drill ground and joked.
Zhu Changluo's expression was still very calm. He smiled at Qi Jin and the other two who were looking at him and reminded them,"Seniors, have you not noticed that the strength of our forces is changing?”
Qi Jin only took a glance and stood up immediately.
Only then did he notice that the Qi Family's Army had far more people left than the new army.
But now, if one observed the situation carefully, they would realize that the Qi Family's Army seemed to have lost a lot of men during the short exchange of weapons!
It was actually a little less than the new army.
And this gap was constantly widening!
" Zhu Yu is deliberately showing weakness and slowly retreating to lure the Qi Family's Army to gain the upper hand, but instead of forming a formation as soon as possible, he is blindly attacking in a chaotic manner. Before the ones behind can catch up, the ones in front have already rushed forward, causing the new army to always have more people than us in the entire battle.”
"Relying on the advantage of numbers and tight formation, we let the cheers gain the upper hand and gradually win the process of continuous bleeding!”
Lou Dayou looked at the drill ground with a solemn expression and soon saw the clues.
Ye Bangrong could not help but smile bitterly." The Qi Family's Army was able to fight and retreat slowly in a tight formation in the past, but they can't do it now. Although the individual tactical knowledge of the new army is far inferior to ours, we are far inferior to them in terms of team combat skills!”
Ta, ta, ta…
At this moment, a scout ran to Zhu Changluo in a panic and reported in a low voice,""Commander, the Tartars are approaching twenty miles away from the Pass City. The Ye He Division is making a ruckus outside the Pass City.”
"Continue to monitor the Tatars and not allow the Ye He Tribe to enter the pass. Let Chief Wang appease the people of the Ye He Tribe!”
After the scout left, Zhu Changluo frowned.
Qi Jin and the others who were sitting nearby also heard the scouts 'report.
Qi Jin was puzzled." Who gave Bu Yan such a sinister idea? Will Bu Yan make use of Ye He's troops to cause trouble in Pass City and take the opportunity to invade?"”
They knew very well that no matter what, they couldn't let the Ye He Tribe enter the pass.
However, he couldn't ignore the life and death of the Ye He Tribe.
" Ignore him. Buyan didn't dare to move before, which proves that he doesn't have the guts at all. A clown is just here to disgust us. There's no need to let a bug interrupt our confrontation drill. I want to see if this old dog has the determination to attack!”
"The Tartar Ditch is my bottom line. If this old dog dares to step into the Tartar Ditch again, I'll need you seniors to order the brothers of the Qi Family Army to cooperate with me.”
Zhu Changluo was disgusted by Bu Yan and was a little frustrated. He made this decision without knowing that Chu Ying was beside Bu Yan.
Although Qi Jin and the others were worried, they also understood that if they were to be interrupted because of Bu Yan, Bu Yan would do the same thing to disgust everyone the next time they fought.
Moreover, it was not easy to prepare for such a confrontation drill.
They had started preparing for it a month ago.
The cost was not small.
Even though he did not know why he needed the Qi Family's Army's cooperation, Qi Jin believed that as long as Zhu Ke led his troops out of seclusion, Bu Yan would definitely retreat. There was no need to use the Qi Family's Army at all. However, Qi Jin did not hesitate at all and replied straightforwardly,"No problem. When the time comes, we old fellows will also listen to your orders!”
Just as they were talking, the situation on the drill ground changed again.
The Qi Family's Army had paid a huge price, and with only three hundred soldiers left, they had finally defeated the formation that the new army had been maintaining.
"We lost!"
Daishan clenched his fists in excitement. In his opinion, the new recruits had finally reached the limits of their physical and mental endurance. If the new recruits had not tensed up their bodies and stood like clay statues for two hours at the beginning of the drill, they might have been able to defeat the Qi Family's Army.
As he thought about it, Daishan could not help but be shocked.
As someone who had been through many battles, Daishan knew very well how important the small details were to the outcome of the battle.
The Qi Family Army probably didn't realize that Zhu Ke's new army would instinctively win, right?
Was Zhu Ke's new army already this strong?
The excitement from before disappeared, and Daishan replayed the scene of the drill in his heart.
Zhu Ke's new army did not have anything particularly outstanding.
Their long-range shooting accuracy was inferior to the Qi Family's Army, their close-combat strength was inferior to the Qi Family's Army, and their battle skills were inferior to the Qi Family's Army.
How could he be so powerful?
He couldn't help but look outside the pass.
Scouts kept appearing beside Zhu Ke. Although Daishan couldn't hear what they were saying, he could guess that Chu Ying had convinced Bu Yan.
"I have to send my observations back to Jianzhou and let Amma know!”Daishan desperately hoped that Chu Ying's plan would succeed, and he also desperately wanted to return to Jianzhou and tell Nurhachi everything he had seen.
On the stage.
Qi Jin and the other two exhaled lightly.
They hoped to lose to the new army to reassure the Imperial Court, but they also did not want to lose.
The result was not bad. The Qi Family's army's victory could only be considered a miserable one. The new army had already shown the foundation of a strong army. With such a force placed in the Jizhou Guards, the imperial court could at least be at ease with the Qi Family's army.
The Qi Family's Army had finally saved their face.
It was a perfect ending.
"Seniors, do you think that the dust has settled?”Zhu Changluo looked at their expressions and knew what they were thinking. He smiled and said.
Qi Jin frowned slightly.
Not far away, Hai Zhongdi saw the Tartar man quietly stand up and leave the platform. Although he didn't know what was going on, when he thought of how Buyan had secretly told this man before he left, he felt that it wasn't simple. For this reason, he had been sitting beside this man ever since he came back and had been on guard.
So he got up first and pressed his left shoulder with one hand and patted his right shoulder with the other."There's no rush. Our new army isn't that weak. There's still time to watch. You Tartars lack patience. Otherwise, Buyan wouldn't have brought you south.”
