Chapter 534: Counting, Ambushing
Is the Rakshasa artillery? Yes and no. Yes, the guns were indeed brought from the North Battalion in Moritz, and the guns were not actually the standard equipment of the Ross Corps. However, it is several sizes smaller than the caliber of regular mounted artillery, and is only used as a backup auxiliary. To put it bluntly, it's just a musket that is a few sizes bigger.
As mentioned earlier, the trajectory of the development of firearms in this era was the first to appear, but at that time it was not called a musket, but a firecracker.
It's just a pipe that is blocked at one end, and then a hole is dug on it to connect the lead. Fill * from the other end, tamp it and add a lead projectile, and use the impetus of the * explosion to launch the projectile, which is the original firearm.
And this kind of initial firecracker, not even a * bolt or anything, the whole big two kicks exploded, which can be described as extremely simple.
But it was this rudimentary firearm that finally evolved into the later artillery. It has been found that the power of the firearm is directly proportional to the caliber and the amount of filling, and the larger the caliber and the more the amount of filling, the greater the power of the shot as long as the material of the firecracker can withstand it.
So, just like that, the primary artillery came into being.
In the first battle of the Northern Battalion, Su Mo hid obscenely in the back, encouraging the Mongols to attack the Rus army in front, and he was in the back to pick up Olisses and others who had infiltrated. When I saw this kind of product, which is considered to be the third or fourth generation of primary artillery, I took a few out of my hands.
Not much, only three in total. After all, with the situation at the time, he was not allowed to spend so much time to search.
And even if it is these three frames, it is actually the emotions of his later generations that he will treat them as antiques. I didn't expect it to be used here today.
However, Rao is the most basic weapon, but its deterrent and shocking power is still powerful in this era.
When the three artillery pieces took turns to consume all the captured ones, the Mongol army below was already in chaos. But the real lethality is extremely limited, and even the effect of the previous few roars of the rice balls is not as good, and the typical thunder and rain are small.
The Mongol soldiers below had apparently discovered this, and were secretly rejoicing, but unexpectedly, the real blow was far from coming.
On the low mountain, Su Mo put down his hands covering his ears and looked at the chaotic scene below with a smile, his face full of pride. And beside him, a young man with a shocked face opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it for a long time.
Who is this young man? It's none other than the self-proclaimed number one junior brother of Su Mo, the son of the Duke of Wei in Nanjing, and the younger grandfather Xu Pengju.
Su Mo originally arranged for several scouts to contact reinforcements, and after recruiting the Thress warriors of Olisses and Jiang Bin's ruffian regiment, he originally hoped to be able to contact the Mengjia army in the Burial Soul Valley. As a result, I didn't expect it, but the first thing I encountered was the department of Grandpa Xu and the Chang family brothers who were beaten and fled in embarrassment after causing trouble.
On that day, Xu Pengju and the Chang brothers made a big fuss about the grassland, and the whole tribe was jumping with chickens and dogs. But it was too big, and in the end it was beaten by people who joined forces, and there was no way but to find a place to get up and count.
When they entered the grassland, they were originally looking for Su Mo's whereabouts. I didn't want to make a fuss, and I didn't even see a single of Su Mo's hair, but after hiding, I accidentally ran into it.
I found Boss Su, and I heard that Boss Su was preparing to Yin Mongolians, with the temperament of Xu Pengju and the Chang family brothers, who was willing to lag behind? Immediately, it was agreed that the Chang family brothers would lead the troops according to the plan, but Xu Pengju followed the scouts all the way to find them first.
The brothers had some joy when they met, but when they knew the news of the fall of Wei Er and Wei San, it made Grandpa Xu furious.
That's right, just rage. In Grandpa Xu's mind, the eight pawns are just domestic servants, although they are a little sad when they hear that Wei Er and Wei San have fallen, but they don't feel too much. In this era, it is natural for a domestic servant to die in battle for the main family, and as a top family in the world, especially a military family, it is naturally even more inappropriate.
The reason why he was so angry was just because he felt that this was like a slap in the face of the Duke of Wei. In fact, in his heart, this matter is not as interesting as the big tail bear brings him.
However, the big-tailed bear doesn't seem to like him, and he doesn't want to please him in any way he wants. was annoyed by his curious look, so he pulled his tail away. In the words of the glutinous rice balls: "Little bugs...... It's ugly, I hate ......."
Well, in the concept of the big-tailed bear, only Su Mo and himself are good-looking in the world, and can be called bears and humans, and the others are ugly bugs. And the reason why the species that are not liked by it are all called Zerg is because in the past, in the secret realm, when this bear was greedy and stealing honey, it was always stung by a group of bees, which made it suffer the sequelae......
But at this moment, whether it was the big-tailed bear or the little grandfather Xu, they obviously didn't care about paying attention to each other, and their attention was shocked by the artillery.
Although the big-tailed bear has also seen the scene when Su Mo and the others threw the * bag, but first, it was in it at the time, only caring about killing Sa Huan'er, this shock could not help but ignore the past;
In addition, this time the big-tailed bear is also completely from the perspective of a bystander, and the attention is not half scattered, which suddenly shocked it a lot, and even the original intention of rushing down to shoot the little insects is gone.
Every day, the movement of this strange thing is even more terrifying than the storm in the secret realm, and the big-tailed bear has never seen it, indicating that the baby is scared to death.
Young Master Xu was also the first time to really see the power of this kind of thermal weapon, but he was not scared like Tang Yuan, but he was really stunned by the loud noise when the cannon was fired.
"Boss, you are yin and I ......" Young Grandpa Xu looked at Su Mo with a resentful face, as if he was a little daughter-in-law.
Don't you see that the boss covered his ears tightly at the beginning, but he didn't even say hello to himself when he meowed, which was obviously deliberately waiting for himself to be embarrassed.
There was still a buzzing sound in his ears, so that the words spoken by Grandpa Xu unconsciously increased by several decibels, at first glance, it really seemed that he had been greatly wronged, and he was complaining in tears, which made the Wei brothers who were following him and had not yet come out of the pain of losing their brothers, all a little unbearable.
"Why do you say again? Uh, you're thinking too much, ahem, look, the show is about to start, don't worry about the details." Ah, the brothers of the Chang family won't drop the chain, right?" Boss Su succeeded, and hurriedly looked at him left and right, and pulled the topic away.
Young Grandpa Xu is very simple, and when he heard the question about his friend, he immediately patted his chest and said that it was no problem at all.
And the next scene really lived up to expectations, which made Grandpa Xu very much more embarrassed.
Before the Mongols could fully wake up from the chaos, the earth-shattering shouts of killing suddenly erupted from behind them, causing them to suddenly fall into an even more panicked situation.
At this moment, the sky was almost completely dark, and it was impossible to see how many men and horses had been killed in the dimness, but through the faint light of the remnants of the artillery bombardment, I could see that the Han soldiers were rushing in with a shadow all over the mountains.
The four generals at the front of the water are all majestic and vicious. The horses under the crotch neighed like a dragon, and each axe and knife and gun in his palm killed him like breaking Tang Woxue. Whatever was encountered in front of him, no matter the people and horses, they were all shattered in an instant, but in the blink of an eye, the entire large array was scattered and cut into sections.
In the rear, Jinong was re-supported on the horse by his entourage, and when he saw this situation, his face couldn't help but flash with red tide, and his eyes were full of horror and horror.
"This ...... Where did this come from? What a treacherous thief, how dare you calculate me like this......"
He shook his horse a few times, and if he hadn't been bluffing left and right, he was afraid that he would have to get off the horse again. At this time, where did he not know that he had fallen for Su Mo's tricks? The frontal attack, the subsequent intimidation of the beast, and the non-stop running for half a day were all aimed at provoking himself, so as to attract himself to chase after him at all costs, until he fell into this trap that had been laid for a long time.
And at the beginning, the two-person rush into battle like a joke was not simply to delay the speed of their pursuit, but to ensure that there was more time for the ambush here.
What Jinong couldn't accept the most was that the other party was able to calculate his mind and determine his decision to chase after him even if he was sleepy and it was getting late. What's even more terrifying is that the time and timing of chasing this place are also the result of the other party's deliberate and early calculation.
First, he charged into battle with two horses, and his seemingly provocative actions slowed down his own heart and made him feel contemptuous, and then led himself all the way around in circles to consume his own physical strength and morale, so that after entering the predetermined battlefield, he completely became a tired army.
Then, taking advantage of the opportunity of the darkness and indefinite situation, he bombarded with artillery that was not practical at all, and finally caused confusion among his own army, which was already exhausted, and the command was ineffective due to the sky, and then finally released the final kill, and the ambush soldiers were launched in one fell swoop, forming a must-kill blow.
Among them, the geographical environment, the operation of the day, the people's thoughts, and the morale factors are all interlinked. At this point, the delicate planning and ruthless use of the plans involved in it made Jinong think about it and feel ashamed.
Desperate eyes glanced around the battlefield that was completely invisible, Jinong finally sighed, closed his eyes slightly, and said in a trembling voice: "Blow the trumpet, collect the troops, let's ...... Withdraw!"
The Mongol soldiers were frightened and wanted to leave, but at this time they finally heard the Lord's order to retreat, and immediately heard the sound of the wheel. Soon, the sound of desolate bull horns rang out.
On the low mountain, Su Mo's expression moved, and he turned his head to look at Wei Yi and Wei Si, and there seemed to be a flame beating in his eyes: "Two brothers, revenge, it's time to take revenge!"
