The weapon tycoon who traveled to Daqin
786 We are finished!
The morning mist has not yet dissipated, and the tranquility of the night allowed the people of Chu to temporarily feel a sense of tranquility, but this tranquility was soon broken.
The sound of "Whoosh, whoosh," began to sound, just like the footsteps of migrating animals in Africa. However, this was not Africa, but the undeveloped indigenous land.
"What is that?" a Chu man standing guard shouted loudly.
"Hey, get up quickly, there's something going on," the Chu people shouted loudly.
"Bang," there was a clear gunshot, and the Chu people on guard immediately fired their flintlock guns to warn.
"What's going on, damn it," the Chu people heard the gunshots and subconsciously looked for their weapons. At the same time, they were dissatisfied with the indigenous people for launching an attack so early in the morning.
"Woo, woo," this time the indigenous people's attack began to become organized. They were divided into three large offensive formations. These formations were no longer as loose as before. The indigenous people were also learning. I also began to understand that to deal with the Chu people, some things must be changed. This is how civilization spreads. At the same time, this is also a kind of progress for the indigenous civilization itself, but every progress always requires some costs, otherwise it will be difficult to move forward.
"Get into your fighting positions quickly, hurry up, hurry up," the leader shouted loudly, and all the people entered the fighting positions with their flintlock guns.
"We must think of other ways. It's too stupid to shoot in such a swarm," a veteran suggested.
"Then what do you think we should do," the head asked.
"We should learn from the Qin people. I know that the Qin people have a flintlock musket volleying tactic. We can give it a try." When the veteran used the flintlock musket, he had heard about the Qin people's volleying tactics. He knew that kind of tactic. It is very powerful and can knock down the cavalry of the northern nomadic tribes, and the cavalry can only be beaten even when faced with volley tactics.
"Fireball tactics," the leader asked.
"Yes, it is a platoon tactic. Divide people into three rows. The first row shoots, the second row prepares to shoot, the third row loads ammunition, the first row finishes shooting, the second row follows up and the third row completes at this time Reload and prepare to shoot," Tou said.
"That's the regular army's way of fighting. Can we do it?" asked the leader.
"I don't know, give it a try, at least we can survive," the veteran said.
"Well, try your best to do this," Tou said. In fact, Tou was right. This kind of volley tactics requires iduan time love you training to complete, because the mutual cooperation and loading of ammunition and aiming at each link are all important. They must be able to keep up, but the Chu people are a group of stragglers. Few of them have gone to the battlefield through systematic military training. Some of them have gotten flintlocks for the first time.
"Everyone, come here. In a moment, we will use a new tactic. Every three people will be in groups. The first person will shoot, the second person will prepare, and the third person will load the ammunition. When the first person finishes shooting, After that, the people behind quickly followed up and started shooting. At this time, the people behind had finished loading ammunition. I don’t need to say anything next,” the veteran greeted.
"What does this mean," asked a young man.
"If the Qin people's volley tactics are used well, we may survive. I hope everyone can cooperate with each other. Whether we can survive depends on our mutual cooperation," the veteran said.
"Okay, let's find our own people. We work in groups of three. Hurry up, the indigenous people are coming. Hurry up," the leader came over at this time and shouted loudly.
"Well, who knows if the Qin people's bullshit tactics are really good? If we shoot like this, only one-third of the people are shooting every time. Can we win if we fight like this?" a young man asked.
"Give it a try," the person on the side replied.
"Woooo, ah, Afo," the indigenous people were performing their last prayers to the gods, and some people also danced war dances in front of the gods. They hoped to get the protection of the gods in the sky in this way.
"What are those damn natives doing?" asked an Echu man.
"Stop looking, get ready. Whoever fires the first shot, forget it, I think it's him," a Chu man said, pointing at the speaker.
"Me," the Chu native pointed out with his fingers.
"Yes, it's you,"
"You fire the first shot, I fire the second shot, and you fire the last shot," the Chu people said.
"Okay," the Chu people are allocating the final defensive location according to the tactical teams of three people. They have more than twenty teams of three people, and there are some wounded soldiers in the middle. Their loading speed is certain. been greatly affected.
In order to ensure the efficiency of the battle, the Chu people tried their best to distribute as many wounded soldiers together as possible. The four alive people were divided into groups of five, and all those who could move were arranged in three-person groups for normal rapid fire.
There was a moment of silence on the battlefield, and even the morning birds stopped chirping. The only sound that became quiet was the sounds of the damned indigenous people praying before the battle.
"Do we need to do something," a young man from Chu asked.
"No, we can just wait," a more mature Chu man replied.
"Oh," replied the young man.
"Ulada, swoosh," the native muttered, then waved his arms as if he had gained something.
"Ah," shouted loudly.
"Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh," the indigenous people screamed sharply.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah," the natives started to attack after bursting out with a strong pre-battle declaration. At this time, the sun was already angry, the sky was blue and the clouds were white, which was a very favorable weather for fighting.
"Woooo, wooooo," the indigenous people divided into three teams and began to attack the Chu people's stronghold crazily. They first approached the Chu people at a constant speed, because the Chu people's rifle range could not hit them, and the indigenous people Based on this method, you must maintain your physical strength and slowly approach the Chu people. When the Chu people shoot in the first round, they start to make the final speed. They must rush to the Chu country as quickly as possible. people in front of them, and then launch a sudden attack.
"Prepare for the first round of shooting," the head shouted loudly.
Six groups of shooting teams occupied the place where the explosives collapsed yesterday and began to take aim and shoot.
"Fifty steps, let go," the head shouted loudly.
"Bang, bang," a burst of shooting sounded.
Some people fell down among the indigenous people, but the two groups on the flanks suffered no losses. The shots hit the center. The Chu people did not have enough shooting surface to hit the opponents, and the manpower was too few.
"Second round, let go," the head shouted again.
"Bang bang," there was a burst of gunfire, this time it was still coming from the center to the subordinates, but at this time the indigenous people had begun to sprint desperately. They wanted to cross this killing distance as quickly as possible.
"Round three, shoot," the head yelled.
"Bang bang," gunshots rang out, and the natives fell down some again.
"Next round," the head waved.
"Damn, it's so fast," a young man slowly inserted the fire pillar back into his rifle, then opened the fire door in a panic and started shooting.
"Bang bang," this round of shooting was obviously not as crisp as the first round of shooting.
"Bang," "Bang," some people started shooting early, some people fired later, and some people just opened the fire door and saw that others had already fired. They were so anxious that they didn't have time to aim and shoot. The results can be imagined.
It is very unwise to organize volley tactics in a hurry, because volley tactics require certain training, especially the coordinated shooting between a team, and most importantly, the time for reloading bullets.
In the first three rounds of shooting, the bullets had been loaded, so the Chu people could shoot calmly. However, when it came to the fourth round, due to the different reloading times of the bullets, there was some confusion during shooting. People have fired, but some people can't even fire.
"Damn it, the propellant is not loaded," a young man cursed anxiously.
"Next round," the order has been given at this time.
"Too fast," the young man cursed. His bullet reloading speed was far slower than the speed of his head giving orders.
"Aim, release," the head's shooting command has been given.
"Damn it," Finally, the young man was pushed to the back by the people behind him for the next round of shooting. In this round, there are still some people who have not loaded the bullets. The reloading process of the flintlock gun has been simplified. The bullets used in the early models of flintlock guns of the Qin State were used to launch gunpowder and separate the ignition gunpowder. Later, oil paper or deerskin was used to cover the whole body, and then grease and wax were used to seal it. When fighting, it was necessary to use the mouth to handle it. A small opening is taken off the bullet mouth, and then a part of the gunpowder is poured onto the fire door. Then, a part of the propellant is poured into the firing barrel, and then the bullet is pressed into the barrel with a flame pillar, and then the fire door is opened for a second shot.
Even so, it would be a very unwise choice to hastily organize gun volley tactics without overall professional training. In fact, this is indeed the case. When the Qin State trains its soldiers, they need to complete fifteen days of specialized loading training. , shooting rhythm training, and then a whole team training, and during training, all soldiers need to shout slogans, because the battlefield is noisy and chaotic, and there are all kinds of sounds. The officer’s order is likely not to be covered up, so , needs to be retransmitted twice, which is why the soldiers need to shout the slogan loudly. In fact, it is mainly aimed at the shooting of artillery. The huge sound made when the artillery fires seriously interferes with the officer's command of the gun platoon tactics.
But now, the Chu people do not have artillery. The only thing they are more advanced than the indigenous people is that they use muskets, which can penetrate any weapon of the indigenous people. They are not equipped with artillery, this kind of weapon of mass destruction, because Their funds are seriously insufficient, and only if they accumulate enough funds in the slave trade can they purchase them and then use them in the slave war.
"Let go," Tou kept shouting loudly. He hoped that his loud shouts would turn into bullets and shoot those damn natives.
"Whoa, whoa," the natives shouted loudly and rushed over.
"Bang," a Chu man stood in the gap and shot down a man with the rifle in his hand.
The native man leaned forward, then spun and fell to the ground, a beautiful falling posture, but it was useless. He was hit. This was war, and falling meant that he was one step closer to death.
"Bang," another Chu man quickly stepped forward and shot the indigenous people who were only a few steps away with the rifle in his hand. The thick gunpowder smoke emitted by the gun obscured the Chu man. He aimed and shot with the rifle in his hand, but At such a close distance, there is no need to aim.
"Shoot," the head shouted loudly, and then fired continuously with the pistol in his hand.
Chu merchants are very calculating. They spend a lot of money to buy ships, guns and ammunition, and the price of bullets is not cheap. In particular, the price of a scattering bullet is ridiculously high. One bullet is equivalent to an ordinary bullet. Three times the amount of gun bullets, scatter bullets are actually shotgun bullets. These bullets are very suitable for close combat, especially in such close combat. One shotgun bullet can destroy a lot of the opponent's combat effectiveness. The Qin Army often This kind of bullet is used in close combat, and it is widely used. The earliest bullets installed in the short-barreled flintlock rifles used by cavalry are this kind of bullets, because when cavalry fights at close range, the combat distance is relatively close, but the rate of fire is slow. The flintlock muskets could not meet the cavalry's fast combat requirements, so they used this type of shotgun shells, which were extremely powerful and highly effective in combat.
But the Chu people are different. They do not have such weapons, especially their financial situation does not allow them to purchase such ammunition at all. They think it is too expensive and exceeds their needs. Businessmen believe that, To deal with the indigenous people who were still armed with stone-level weapons, the use of muskets was already quite powerful, and the use of ordinary bullets was more than enough, so they did not spend any more money to purchase such bullets.
Now, this kind of bullets are of great use, but the people of Chu do not have this kind of bullets for their own people to use.
"Ah," as soon as the Chu man fired the bullet, a poison dart flew into his throat, and he was hit.
The Chu man threw away the weapon in his hand and held his neck tightly with both hands. He felt it was difficult to breathe. The darts were poisonous and very toxic. Soon, the Chu man couldn't bear it, and eventually he would suffocate. Death from poison.
"Woo hoo," the natives rushed to the Chu people again.
"Go to hell," the Chu people stopped shooting. They had no time to load the second bullet. They could only use bayonets and gun butts to kill their opponents.
"Bang," there was a sound of the gun butt hitting the bone. An indigenous man was hit hard on the head by the gun butt. In an instant, blood flowed all over his head, and the indigenous man fell down.
"Poof," a spear made of sharp stone pierced the back of the Chu native when the butt of the gun hit the native.
"Damn it," the Chu man cursed with all his strength.
"Puff," more stone spears pierced the Chu people's bodies, and the natives swarmed forward.
Soon, the Chu people were killed by this crude weapon.
"We can't stand it anymore," the young man's will to fight was shaken first.
"Don't run, everyone will die if you run, fight," Tou shouted loudly, and as he spoke, he rushed into the crowd of indigenous people with his short sword.
He grabbed an aboriginal man with his left hand, and stabbed the aboriginal man in the lower abdomen with a dagger in his right hand. Then he quickly pulled out the dagger and turned around and waved his hand. The chest of another aboriginal man was cut open by the sharp dagger, and blood splashed everywhere. They were everywhere. With their skilled fighting skills, they could be hit on the head with ease. However, the indigenous people were not beasts to be slaughtered. They were ethnic minorities with a strong sense of fighting. They quickly relied on their numerical advantage to kill them ruthlessly. Give him a head start.
"Poof," first a stone ax cut off his left arm, and then a spear stabbed his left leg.
"Ah," Tou shouted, and then he waved the dagger in his hand vigorously and gave it to the native with the spear.
"Puff," Tou had just used his dagger to force away the one with the spear, when two natives with javelins pierced his back. He endured the tremendous pain, and Tou wanted to spin back and kill the two natives. But at this time, he really had no strength and the pain was unbearable.
"Puff, puff," more and more spears and javelins pierced his head, and he couldn't bear it anymore.
His head fell down, and at the last moment, he saw many indigenous people surrounding him and assassinating him, and finally he lost consciousness.
"Retreat," a veteran shouted. After losing their commander, the Chu people's defense line quickly collapsed. Their numbers simply could not withstand the attack of so many indigenous people. Although the weapons were advanced, this kind of The weapons still had some fatal flaws that were enough to render them unable to defend the entire front.
"Retreat, retreat," the Chu people began to retreat continuously. They began to retreat to the place where they lived, using some favorable obstacles to fight back.
"Bang," a gunshot rang out, and one of the indigenous people fell down. This close range and high density can easily cause casualties to the opponent, but this loss is nothing to them. The worst thing is , the indigenous people are quickly approaching them with the help of their huge advantage in personnel.
After a Chu man finished shooting, he immediately squatted down to reload ammunition, but the man behind him was not so lucky. Just when he stood up and was about to aim at the enemy, a poison dart shot over, and the poison dart hit the enemy. Hit him in the eye.
"Bang," there was a gunshot, but the bullet was shot into the sky.
"Damn it, let's retreat, the enemy is coming." The Chu people could only fight and retreat at the same time.
"Woo woo woo," the indigenous people rushed over quickly, but they were cruel. For the Chu people they killed with poison darts, there was definitely no way to save this Chu people, but the indigenous people felt that they could not understand their hatred. Then he struck hard with the ax in his hand and chopped off the Chu man's neck, and his head was separated like this.
"We can still retreat, but we are finished. We can't defeat our opponents," a Chu man shouted loudly.
"Retreat to the edge of the cliff," a Chu man shouted. They were reloading ammunition and retreating back. The situation made it difficult for them to make the right choice, and the situation became very critical.
More and more Chu people were brutally killed. The indigenous people almost used extremely cruel methods to kill Chu Guoli. Even the dead bodies were not spared. Many corpses were killed twice. The indigenous people hated them. The people of Chu are dead.
"We have no way out, what should we do?" The Chu people with only a dozen people left were facing the biggest dilemma in their lives at this time. In front of them were the indigenous people rushing up in a swarm, and behind them were cliffs. This was the location chosen by the Chu people to establish a stronghold. Relying on this place, they could light bonfires and guide their ships to come here.
"There is no boat, no one is coming to save us, we are doomed," the last Chu people felt extremely desperate. There were no reinforcements and no way out, and all hope was gone.
"Woo hoo," the natives chased after them, and they rushed up slowly.
"Fight it." Some Chu people think that they will die anyway, and they should take a few more people to support them before they die, so that one life can be exchanged for several more lives. In such a desperate environment, it is easy for people to think this way. Quickly, this Chu man rushed into the crowd of indigenous people with a bayonet-mounted rifle.
"Come on," the people who followed quickly rushed over, and more and more people rushed over with the same idea.
"Poof," the bayonet penetrated the body, "ah," a spear penetrated the Chu man's back, and at this moment, the Chu man died tragically at the hands of the natives.
"Bang," some people fired a shot, and then smashed their opponents to death with their rifle butts, but soon, the overwhelmingly dominant natives responded to their attitude with the weapons in their hands.
"Ah," there were several more screams, and soon, several Chu people fell to the ground. They were all dead, and only those who died in battle were at the feet of the indigenous people.
"What should we do," said a Chu man with an injured leg, using his gun as a crutch.
"Can we still fight?" A Chu man smiled.
"Bang," a gunshot rang out, and the Chu man ended his life with the pistol in his hand. The injured Chu man was startled by the sudden situation.
"What should we do?" the injured Chu man asked after looking at it.
"What should I do? I think that might be a way to survive." A Chu man saw the sea behind him and made up his mind to jump in.
"Ah," the Chu man shouted loudly.
At this time, the natives were getting closer and closer, with only a few steps to catch them. In panic, the Chu people who were unwilling to die just jumped down.
Those behind who did not want to be killed by the natives also jumped down.
The waves of the sea hit the cliff fiercely, and the huge sound covered up the sound of them jumping into the sea. In this way, the Chu State, which was forced into a desperate situation, disappeared from the eyes of the indigenous people.
Later, the natives returned to the Chu people's stronghold. They set fire to everything they could and took away everything they could. As for the corpses, in retaliation, they cut them into pieces in an extremely barbaric way. Revenge can also be reflected on the dead because their souls are still there, which is the thinking of the indigenous people.
After doing all this, the indigenous people returned to their tribal gathering place in victory, and then held their victory meeting.
As for the Chu people, they need to reflect carefully. This battle is difficult to record in history, because it is too small to contain the entire battle process. However, this is indeed the first step in the Chu people's foreign colonial expansion. A larger-scale battle.
The result of the battle was that the Chu people were completely defeated. Many days later, another ship that arrived to carry slaves discovered that their stronghold no longer existed, and they also found some companions who were almost savages. They all jumped into the sea to escape. Those Chu people, these stories were passed down from their mouths. If there are no survivors, this story cannot be spread.
The ship passed empty. They did not have any slaves to return, and they suffered great losses. More than a hundred people were defeated in two days, and only a handful of them survived. The battle was too fierce. It's intense.
Those who survived told the stories of their experiences, while the businessmen calculated their losses, and those who listened to the stories were thinking about one thing, whether they were retreating or moving forward, what was the point of doing so.
However, they soon had a preliminary choice of their own. As their reference, they knew what to choose. The slave trade was an extremely profitable industry. This industry could make a fortune very quickly. This was a huge opportunity. , only by seizing the opportunity can they become rich and live the life they want.
The failure of the Chu people is reasonable. First, their power is very weak. Since the slave trade has just emerged, they have just established a preliminary slave trade stronghold. They want to continue to expand the slave trade through this stronghold, but after all, it has just begun. , Therefore, their power is still very weak, with a total of more than 100 combatants, nearly 200 people, and the weapons they use are only entry-level weapons that ushered in an era of weapons.
Second, this is an overseas operation. They are far away from the homeland and entering a completely unfamiliar environment. The opponents, the indigenous people, are very familiar with the local environment. This geographical strangeness makes it difficult for them to launch a decent military operation. , that is to say, because of this sense of strangeness, it is difficult for them to send a powerful armed force to intervene, and they cannot disrupt the other party's military operations in advance. Speaking of which, the geographical strangeness makes it difficult for them to gain much in this battle. Great odds of winning.
The third point is their weapons. They lack the ability to attack their opponents from a distance. The Chu people did not even use weapons such as bows and crossbows. There may be many reasons for not using them, but the most important thing is that their funds are not enough. In place, but the lack of weapons is a fact. They do not have weapons that are deadly enough to fight against their opponents, especially in terms of heavy firepower. They do not have artillery that can completely suppress their opponents. This will cause the opponents to counterattack quickly. This is the situation in war. , the one who lost.
In any case, the Chu people lost the first battle, and the losses were extremely heavy, but they would get back on their feet soon because they would never give up this super profitable business.
Moreover, the slave trade has just begun. The Chu people who have kicked off the slave trade and the slave war are not willing to give up like this, and their nature will not give up easily, because the local living environment is really too bad, so , they have great motivation to expand externally.
The indigenous people don't know anything about what is happening outside. They don't know what is happening in the outside world yet, but they know that enjoying the present is the most important thing they should do.
The Chu people are learning this lesson, and businessmen are beginning to realize that conquering the locals is not that easy, especially since the locals have the advantage in firepower, numbers, and geographical advantages. It is the first time that the Chu people have arrived like this. They definitely didn’t know anything about the unfamiliar environment. At first, they could use their own weapon advantages to defeat the other party. But once the other party counterattacked, the Chu people’s tragedy happened. In the final analysis, this was caused by the inequality of strength between the two sides. Yes, what they have to do now is to change this situation, and changing this situation can only increase their own strength.
But the problem is always the snake swallowing its own tail. The problem is back to the original starting point. They still lack a lot of funds to carry out the slave trade.
"We should buy more guns and cannons to deal with the indigenous people. The indigenous people are so barbaric that we can't even kill them with muskets. They are really too barbaric," said a Chu man. He felt very scared after hearing those rumors. He has been looking for a way. He thought that his weapons should be as powerful as the weapons used by the Qin people to accomplish what they wanted.
"Humph," a businessman thought with great disdain after hearing the conversation.
You poor people, just know that when you buy guns and cannons, my money is not free, it is earned bit by bit. How much money can I make by selling a slave? How much do I give to those who are officials? Those water pirates need to give something to everyone.
How much does a gun cost? How much does a cannon cost? How do I pay for it? Can I afford it? It’s a beautiful idea. I don’t have any real ability. If I have the ability, I can kill a few more indigenous people. I can find them here. Excuse.
"Alas," the businessman sighed again in the blink of an eye. He really couldn't understand why a man equipped with such a good weapon was defeated all of a sudden, and this time he lost so much.
The businessman shook his head as he spoke. He really couldn't think of any good ideas.
The businessman fell into deep thought again. Since war is not an option, then he should use other methods. As long as there are business opportunities, there are always many ways. This is worthy of recognition. Just when the Chu businessman fell into thinking.
The situation in Qin State deteriorated again.
"Dig, dig every day," a Qi soldier complained. Since they attacked the Qin army last time, their entire attack has stopped. This stop made many people happy because they thought that this would Avoid going to death.
"Okay, it's time to dig. You can still dig the soil alive. Look at the people buried under the mound. Just think about it. You can still save your life, you can still eat and drink. You can still sleep, but those people will never wake up," a veteran cursed while digging in the soil.
"I know, I know," Xiao Bing cursed.
"Don't know, I don't think you know how uncomfortable it feels to die. It's terrible to think about it. So many people died in one night, and those who were shot, those people can't survive, life, It's so pitiful that it's lost like this," the veteran said.
"You just know how to save your life," Xiao Bing said.
"Don't know how to save your life. This life is hard to say. Look at how many people are around you. The person who talked to you before was like that night. How about taking a bullet? I saw that tragedy." said.
"Half of the head is gone, and the blood, yellow and red, flowed all over the floor," the veteran said.
At this time, Xiao Bing stopped what he was doing. It was indeed like this. They all participated in the military operation that night. Three of his childhood friends also participated, but after a battle.
All three were gone. On the first day, they were fine. They were talking and laughing, saying that after the war, they would go home and get a wife. But on the second day, everyone was dead, and the bodies were nowhere to be found. There were so many People were thrown into the big pit and could not be found even if they tried to find them.
"How is it?" At this time, the soldier of Qi State cried. Thinking about those people, he felt that this war was too cruel. They should not come to participate. What does this war have to do with them? He felt very sad. Wrongful, very painful,
