Chapter 379 The Puppet Army Is Destined to Be Cannon Fodder
With Kong Youde's previous experience, Geng Zhongming was very cautious. He ordered the sword and shield soldiers to go in front and hold shields to cover the archers and musketeers behind to attack the Ming army from a distance.
The muskets of the puppet army were all the unified standard muskets of the Ming army, but because of the cost, there were not a large number of them, and the quality was too poor. They would suddenly explode after firing three or five shots. The musketeers would rather use the muskets as fire sticks than load gunpowder bullets.
Before hurting the enemy, you hurt yourself first, and the power is even more powerful than the Seven Injury Fist.
In fact, the puppet army and the Qing army not only had muskets, but also cannons, but the cannons were too heavy and inconvenient to transport. Ajige's troops were the vanguard, lightly equipped and fast, and did not carry heavy cannons.
Otherwise, before the infantry attacked, they would definitely set up cannons to bombard randomly to shock the Ming army, and then rush to kill, and maybe the Ming army's defense line would be broken.
Bang, bang, bang, bang——
As soon as the attacking puppet army entered the effective range of the musket, the soldiers of the second brigade mechanically pulled the trigger under the command of the officer, and then retreated to load gunpowder bullets.
After several rounds of shooting, watching the puppet army screaming and falling down in groups, all the soldiers' tense hearts gradually relaxed.
No need for close combat, melee combat, just aim the gun, pull the trigger, retreat, load the musket bullet, move forward, hold the gun, pull the trigger, repeat this action repeatedly, then there is no need to be afraid.
So fighting is so easy?
Under the dense barrage, the wooden shields in the hands of the puppet army for protection were either shattered or penetrated by the bullets, and the soldiers behind the shields screamed and fell down. Even if they did not die on the spot, if they were not treated in time, they would lose too much blood and die.
Of course, with current medical technology, let alone whether or not they can get through the difficult hurdle of surgery to remove the lead bullet, even if they succeed in removing the bullet from the body, the chance of survival is still very low. It is lucky for one out of ten people to be able to crawl out of the ghost gate.
The shield soldiers blocking the front were slaughtered, and the archers and musketeers behind them were frightened and hurriedly fired arrows and guns. The sparse arrows and lead bullets only caused casualties to more than a dozen soldiers of the second brigade.

Under the dense barrage of bullets, the wooden shields in the hands of the puppet soldiers for protection were either shattered or penetrated by bullets. The soldiers behind the shields screamed and fell down. Even if they did not die on the spot, they would die from excessive blood loss if they did not receive timely treatment.
Of course, with the current medical technology, let alone whether they can overcome the difficulty of surgery to remove the lead bullets, even if the bullets in the body are successfully removed, the chance of survival is still very low. It is lucky for one out of ten people to crawl out of the ghost gate.
