back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 941 The Power of Weapons

"This... what is this? Is the god punishing?"

King Wu and King Wuxie, who were about to go around to the back, looked at each other, tried their best to hold back the restless horse, and listened to the sound like thunder in the distance in surprise.

The Dashun imperial army spread out for a radius of twenty li, and they were far away, so they could only hear the sound, and had no idea what happened.

On the left, King Liu, who was holding back, saw the overwhelming orange flames, and was almost overturned by the horses.

"The Han people are using demon magic again?"

King Liu reined in his horse's head in embarrassment, and asked loudly to the left and right.

No one answered him, as if they were all stunned by the sound of the huge artillery.

"A bunch of trash!" King Liu was also a brave general, he clenched the sword in his hand, and said ferociously, "Don't worry, attack with all your strength!" He knew that if he retreated at this time, the Dashun Imperial Army would definitely pursue him.Once the morale is let down, even the gods can't save it.Although it is said that the Khitan people have an advantage in horses, if the Han people have been using the demon method, the advantage will become a disadvantage.

Fighting, in fact, fighting is morale.If you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins. If you don't have the energy to go all out, you will definitely be the one who loses first.King Liu understands this truth, but he has [-] soldiers and horses at his disposal, and only [-] are subordinate to him, and the rest are the private armies of various nobles.If he had [-] soldiers and horses in his hand, he really couldn't tell who would win or lose this time.

The left wing is still several miles away from the artillery, and the noise is not too loud.The Khitan people's horses are extremely good, and after getting used to it for a while, they don't feel any problem.

After all, when the Dashun frontier army was fighting against the Liao Kingdom, they often used a weapon called a cannon.

The so-called cannon is actually a trebuchet plus a primitive gunpowder ball, called a thunderbolt fireball.This is an explosive firearm, which is made of a bamboo tube about one and a half inches thick, wrapped with gunpowder, broken porcelain pieces, iron pieces, etc., and made into a spherical shape.Leave about an inch of pipe head at each end of the ball, so that one end can be used as a handle, and the other end can be used to hold primer and powder twist.When it is cast, its explosion sounds like a thunderbolt, and it looks like a fireball rolling, so it is called "thunderbolt fireball".When it explodes, the fragments of iron shot out can kill and injure the enemy. It has exactly the same effect as the prefabricated fragmentation grenade of later generations. It can be said that it is the earliest grenade in the world.

The Han people are so smart, the "thunderbolt fireball" is powerful, but it is too heavy, it can't reach far, and it is easy to hurt one's own people, so I came up with the idea of ​​"thunderbolt fireball" plus a trebuchet, and used the "thunderbolt fireball" as a stone bomb Launch the same.Sometimes it explodes in the air, and its lethality is astonishing.It was used to defend the city, and the Khitan people suffered a lot.

In Chinese characters, gun and gun actually have the same meaning, that is to say, such a gun cart is the earliest artillery.The Khitan people have seen it before, so they don't think there is anything to be afraid of.

It is precisely because of this that King Liu dared to risk his life to attack.

Regardless of the fact that more than 30 soldiers and horses dared to besiege more than [-] Han troops, it is very different from the art of war. It is said in the art of war: "Ten encircle them, five attack them, and double them divide them."However, the combat power of cavalry and infantry is not the same.In the confrontation of arms, the cavalry is the main offensive, and the infantry is the main defender. This is an irrefutable truth.No matter how many infantry there are, the cavalry cannot be defeated.The cavalry can't fight, but they can still run!
On the right wing, King Jin had a small thought. He wanted to preserve his strength. Now is the time when the morale of the Dashun army is at its peak. If he wiped out his family fortune, then he is not worthy of his name as King Jin, and he will be "replaced" by the court. "of.Ever since, he just ordered the soldiers to mount and shoot, and did not charge.

For the imperial army, this riding and shooting is simply nowhere near itching, and it doesn't hurt.Not to mention that there are two layers of chariots outside to block the rain of arrows, even if they hit the imperial army, they would not be able to penetrate through the chain mail.The Khitans have always lacked large bed crossbows, and it is impossible for them to carry large bed crossbows in field battles, so the Imperial Army did not panic in the face of this kind of riding and shooting.Even under the leadership of Lu Chenhuan, the Forbidden Army began to shoot at each other with divine arm crossbows and Hongxiang rifles.

How can the softer horse bow be the opponent of the god arm crossbow and Hongxiang rifle?
In less than a quarter of an hour, not many of the provocative Khitan cavalry could escape this laid firepower net.

Lu Chenhuan used his three-stone bow to set an arrow, and cursed: "If you want to fight or not, what does it mean to keep shooting?"

He still had spare time to pay attention to the overall situation of the battle. When he found that the left wing was fighting hard, he scolded even more fiercely: "This barbarian is a bunch of gutless gangsters! A person can only die without a big scar on the mouth of the bowl. Afraid of a bird?"

At this moment, there was movement from behind.

Lu Chenhuan scolded even more joyously, cursing while shooting arrows, shooting one arrow and cursing: "Counsel", and shooting another arrow and cursing: "I don't grow birds", the soldiers around couldn't help laughing, but in In such a tense atmosphere, they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and it was very hard for them to hold back.

But he said that the left wing left the king and attacked like crazy.

The cavalry was everywhere, and all they used were thrown arrows.

Projectile is a kind of technical activity, which can produce greater lethal effect by using gravity.Ever since, the Forbidden Army began to suffer casualties.The arrow feathers falling from the sky were caught off guard.

"General, what should I do?"

As a personal soldier, Zhao Yanghui asked Zheke with a trembling voice.

"What are you panicking about?" Zhe Kexing was as calm as a mountain, giving off a convincing feeling. "It's just to fight back with firearms, bows and arrows. If they get close, isn't there some kind of 'thunder in the palm'?"

"General, that's a grenade!" An officer of the Imperial Army listened and corrected in a low voice.

"It's all the same thing, no difference!" Zhe Kexing said impatiently, "If you don't command the soldiers, what are you doing with me?"

"Decree!" The officer didn't dare to provoke Zhe Kexing anymore, his command was weak, according to the military law Zhe Kexing could kill him before the battle.

King Liu never felt that the Han army would have such a terrible day. They relied on their chariots and shot without haste.The continuous sound of arrows and gunshots has never been interrupted.The soldiers in front of him kept falling off their horses as if they had crashed into a large woven net.

What kind of Han army is this?
Why do they face the charge of thousands of troops, but they don't change their faces like Mount Tai?
Had it been the case before, the Han army would have collapsed on its own if the Khitans rushed forward.

He didn't have time to think about it, the short distance of two miles is the distance between life and death.

Only by breaking down the Forbidden Army in front of you can you put a huge pressure on the front and rear Forbidden Army.Only when the imperial army was attacked from three sides would they be defeated.

It's getting closer, it's getting closer, there's still a hundred feet away.As long as three to five breaths pass, the vanguard will be able to touch the unusually stiff carriage.At this time, the crossbows and gunshots of the Imperial Army became more intensive.

"Hey, what is that?"

King Liu suddenly saw an iron lump flying out like a small pumpkin, and smashed twenty or thirty steps away.

That distance happened to be the distance that the vanguard had just arrived.

"Bang!!!"

There was a loud noise, and King Liu felt a wave of heat coming, almost knocking him over.Lying on the horse in a state of embarrassment, he now has only one thought: "What kind of magic is this?!"
