Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 123 New Weapons

"Hahahaha, the Ming army is really vulnerable!"

Looking from a distance, Bai Wang's eyebrows danced brightly: "Go all out, take down that damned Zhu Yixi, and avenge General Li."

I saw that thousands of cavalry rushed forward with an indomitable attitude, and the layers of military formations were torn apart like thin paper.
With an unstoppable posture, he declared to the world that Chuangjun is still invincible in the world.

Our army is superior, and the Ming army will be defeated.

Bai Wang made a vow.

But he said that thousands of cavalry, like ocean waves, kept charging forward.

More importantly, it engulfed thousands of Yunyang soldiers as cannon fodder to break through the line of defense.

"General soldier, let me go!" Li Jingwu frowned and said worriedly.

On the high platform, Zhu Yixi was extremely angry, but he still suppressed his emotions: "Believe in the grenadier camp, it is not so easy for intruders to break through."

Looking up, I saw that the dark clouds gradually dispersed, revealing a little sunlight, and the scene in the distance became much clearer.

"Raise the shield—"

Yan Guochao saw the panicked rout of soldiers and the surging cavalry behind him, and shouted again: "Stop, stop ahead—"

The soldiers of the grenadier battalion shouted one by one, their voices were so loud that they shook the sky, but these rout soldiers didn't listen at all, and they still rushed to the defense line desperately.

Zhu Yixi frowned: "Let the archer shoot—"

Immediately, the military flag on the side was waved, and the Chinese army received the news.

"Shooting arrows—" Chen Yongfu and You Shiwei said hurriedly after receiving the military order.

Immediately, thousands of sharp arrows were thrown into the air, forming a parabola, falling in front of the army formation like a rain of arrows.

"Shhhhh-"

A large number of rout soldiers looked up at it, fell backwards uncontrollably, and died of stray arrows.

One shot after another, three times, with tens of thousands of arrows, most of the defeated soldiers were killed or injured, and they were terrified.

"Back to both sides—"

At this time, the rout soldiers who came to their senses finally heard the good words, and went towards both sides under the pursuit of the war horses.

For a moment, only the cavalry was left in front of the shield bearer.

It's fun to say, whether it's Zhang Xianzhong's Western Army or the Chuang Army, the uniforms and armor are exactly the same as those of the Ming Army, with white caps and red tassels, and red and black jackets.

The biggest difference is the helmet. The helmets of the Ming army will be inserted with an iron wire, and then tied with red tassels.

Yan Guochao stared at this group of cavalry, and said without fear: "Hold on, this group of cavalry met us, it is a bloody bad luck."

All members of the grenadier battalion were heavily armored, with big arms and round waists, and no one was less than six feet tall, like an iron wall.

Cavalry general Zhao Tiande broke through the Ming army in one fell swoop, and he was overjoyed. Facing the heavily guarded defense line of the Ming army, he didn't pay attention at all:
"Rush, give me all of them, they are all paper-like."

The previous breakthrough gave the cavalry great confidence, so they charged away without hesitation.

"Bang bang bang-"

The war horses seemed to have hit an iron wall, their heads were bloody, and they suffered heavy casualties. They were all blocked in front of this group of heavy infantry.

"Is this impossible?" Zhao Tiande was dumbfounded: "How could the Ming army have such elites? Why aren't they afraid? Won't they retreat?"

For a while, the cavalry's offensive was blocked and seemed to be at a standstill.

Zhu Yixi was aloof, observing carefully, and he calmly ordered: "The enemy cavalry hit the iron wall, and the offensive was blocked, good opportunity!"

"Command, Fran cannon waiter—"

whirring whirring—

Flags waving.

Chinese Army, Firearms Battalion.

"There is an order, all the Fran cannons are fired!"

The flag bearer said hurriedly.

"Calibrate enemy cavalry—"

"Already calibrated!"

"Clean the barrel!" "Finished!"

"Check the gunpowder and load it!" "Complete."

"Load the projectile, fuze!"

"It's over, everything is in place!"

"Fire, launch—"

"Boom boom-"

Hundreds of Franco cannons emitted a large amount of thick smoke, and the shells, like meteors, drew a perfect arc in the sky and flew away.

"Boom-"

A cannonball, with unparalleled power, directly destroyed a man and a horse, torn them apart, and wreckage was everywhere.

"Boom—"

The red iron ball, like a scythe of death, kept sweeping across the battlefield.

The war horse neighed, and the people turned on their backs, countless.

It's just a pity that today's Fran cannons don't have the accuracy of later generations, and they can't cover the entire battlefield, let alone the more mobile cavalry, so the casualties are really limited.

However, it is enough to deter the cavalry on the opposite side.

"forward--"

The military order was issued again.

"Forward!, Forward, all the fuck's energy."

The officers didn't dare to be negligent, they yelled one after another, the sound of "哗哗" was especially loud on the battlefield.

"The grenadier battalion, attack—" Yan Guochao raised his battle ax and roared, the armor and equipment on his body rattled.

Marching drums beat.

Accompanied by the beating of drums, the neat phalanx began to move slowly.

"Damn, damn, how dare they not be afraid?"

The grenadier battalion in heavy armor moved forward slowly, but instead forced the cavalry to continuously shrink.

"Throw a grenade—"

Whoa!
The shield hand stopped, and the soldiers in the first three rows took out the grenade, blew on the torch, lit the match, and threw it forward.

"Boom--"

The successive bombings frightened the cavalry and the horses even more.

"Tomahawk—"

Thousands of battle axes swung again, throwing.

Within dozens of steps, a vacuum zone was formed.

This series of tricks directly confused the cavalry, not knowing what to do.

"Those in armor, charge to me—"

Zhao Tiande was furious. In the blink of an eye, he killed and wounded hundreds of cavalrymen, and nearly a thousand of them lost their ability to fight. It is really hateful.

So, under his organization, hundreds of armored cavalry, striding heavily, with an unstoppable posture, like sharp arrows, went straight.

After all, three thousand grenadiers lined up in a column is only a few feet thick, which is too thin.

"Boom—" The rock-solid grenadier battalion rushed out a gap, and then continued to enlarge it.

"kill--"

Although there was a gap, Yan Guochao still refused to give up. He kept slashing horses' legs with his tomahawk, killing and injuring many people.

Seeing that the cavalry on the opposite side broke into two formations in a row, Zhu Yixi looked up from above and said with a sneer: "At the end of the crossbow, I can't wear Lu Jin. Let you try my new weapon."

"Let the gun be ready-"

Seeing his own cavalry break through the opposing Chinese army, Bai Wang was overjoyed. Now, the Ming army is over.

"Wait, what is this?"

I saw, one by one, the enlarged version of the matchlock guns, lifted by two people, shoulders in front, aimed at the rear, and loaded with gunpowder.

The turbulent cavalry continued to flow in, and the Firearms Battalion looked ahead without fear: two hundred steps, one hundred steps——

"emission--"

"Boom boom-"

There was a burst of sound no less than artillery.

boom--

Longer barrel, bigger projectile, more powder, more power.

One after another, the bullets roughly broke through the cavalry's iron armor, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and they fell off the horse and died.

More projectiles were shot at the larger, running horses, bowl-sized wounds appeared continuously, and the wailing sounded endlessly.

A moment later, hundreds of the most elite cavalrymen all fell with disbelief.

"The battle is settled—"
