Jin Shenghuan immediately yelled: "The knife player is in front, the spear player is following, and I will stab these thieves down!"

The sword player kneeling in the front row jumped up with a roar, and the four rows of spearmen quickly followed suit. The four rows of spears with flat ends in their hands instantly formed a jagged forest of spears.

The third group of Jiannu who had just rushed onto the cannon platform were knocked to the ground in an instant.

More than thirty Jiannu slaves, together with the remaining seven or eight Jiannu slaves from the previous two groups, were instantly chopped into pieces.

However, in this way, the Ming army was exposed to the attacks of the Eight Banners Han Army musketeers and the Jiannu archers.

Rows of lead rods and waves of arrows rained down in an instant. Even though they were blocked by wooden signs, more than a dozen spearmen were shot or hit by arrows in an instant.

Jiannu's archery skills are really great.

But fortunately, the smoke has quickly dispersed by this time.

The wind is blowing from the northwest today, and the wind strength varies from strong to weak.

Jin Shenghuan immediately shouted: "Knife players and spear players return to their original positions!"

The sword player and the spear player quickly retreated to their original positions, knelt down on one knee, and let the shooting range go out.

Almost at the same moment, the fourth group of Jiannu also crossed the protective wall and appeared in front of the musketeers' guns.

"Third team, fire!" Accompanied by Xu Yingwei's loud roar and the loud banging sound of gunfire, the fourth group of Jiannu suffered heavy losses in an instant.

Then came the fifth and sixth rounds...

The Ming army's tactics were still the alternation of bird cannon and Lumi cannon.

If the wind is strong, the smoke will quickly dissipate, and sword players and spear players will not even be needed to save the situation.

Only when the wind is not strong enough to blow away the gunpowder smoke in time, the sword players and spear players need to temporarily support it, blocking one or two attacks from Jiannu, and then retreat after the end.

Jiannu suffered a tragic death this time. They had never encountered such a method of warfare.

The Ming troops we encountered in the past would, without exception, crowd behind the protective wall, shoot down muskets or attack thousands of enemies, or throw various objects such as rolling logs and rocks.

But now, the Ming army actually retreated fifteen steps away from the protective wall.

They waited for Jiannu to show up and then fired, which made Jiannu very passive.

First, the archers and musketeers who provide negative cover outside the city have become decorations. Second, due to the limitations of siege equipment, the death squads that capture the city cannot form a numerical advantage, which becomes a fueling tactic.

According to this method of fighting, no matter how many Jiannu come, they will not be enough for the Ming army to kill.

Although the reloading speed of the matchlock gun was slow, the seven rows of musketeers fired successively, which greatly increased the continuity of the firepower. There was almost no pause in the middle, and there was no opportunity for the slaves to take advantage of.

This wave of Ming army musketeers was really exciting.

In less than half an hour, ten groups of slaves were killed before and after.

Even if one group is calculated as thirty people, ten groups are three hundred.

However, the Ming army suffered only less than thirty casualties.

This casualty ratio is exaggerated, completely unlike the casualty ratio of the Ming army against the Jiannu.

…

Fei Yangwu was completely stunned.

Seeing row after row of flag men falling backwards from the parapet, Fei Yangwu's brain completely shut down and he didn't know what kind of reaction he should make.

It wasn't just Fei Yangwu who was confused.

The five hundred flagmen in the trench and the nine hundred Han army musketeers outside the trench were also stunned.

They didn't even know what happened on the gun platform. They just heard the huge bang bang bang bang bang bang bang gunfire sound, and then waves of attacking flagmen fell down.

When the tenth wave of ant attack flags also fell down, Fei Yangwu finally came to his senses.

"Retreat!" Fei Yangwu, who had come to his senses, decisively issued the retreat order without any hesitation.

In less than half an hour, three hundred bannermen had already been killed. How could they survive if they continued to fight?

In the last battle, Zhenglan Banner had already lost a thousand bannermen, including 300 white-armored soldiers. This time they were going to destroy all 900 bannermen. How many soldiers could Zhenglan Banner have left?

According to this method of death, Zhenglan Banner can be revoked soon.

Since there aren’t many strong men, what’s the point of leaving an empty shell?

Fei Yangwu didn't even bother to take care of the carriage and evacuated directly.

If the carriage is gone, it can be rebuilt, but if the flagman dies in battle, it cannot be rebuilt.

It takes at least ten or twenty years for a bannerman to grow up.

However, if Jiannu wanted to retreat at this time, it would not be that easy.

Realizing that Jiannu wanted to withdraw, Ming army musketeers immediately appeared behind the protective wall on the gun platform.
