Boom Boom!

Eight cannons rang out in unison, eight loud sounds, eight round, black huge iron balls spewed out from the muzzle of the cannons one after another, exploding a puff of sparks, carrying eight faint tail smoke, and roaring towards the dense torrent of iron horses.

The body of the eight dragon roared violently, and a large cloud of smoke and dust rose around it, and the cannon body sat backwards, retreating seven or eight steps away, and was bolted by the iron stake, and the thick iron chain shook violently, and finally stopped.

"Clear! Load! ”

The gunners and auxiliary guns did not care to watch the effect of the shelling at all, and the auxiliary guns held the mop to wet the bore brush and quickly clean up the gunpowder and iron filings in the barrel, while the gunners adjusted the amount of propellant and the length of the fuse under the observation and calculation of the observer, and pushed the powder bag into the gun chamber with a long rod, and then advanced the iron ball...... After only a minute, preparations for the second launch were completed.

At this time, over the battlefield, eight iron balls roared down, and below was a dense iron cavalry charging formation that rolled up the sky with smoke and dust. The next moment, eight iron balls rumbled in, bouncing between the iron hooves, dancing in the flesh and blood, sweeping all the way, bursting through clouds of blood mist, until they were swallowed by the tide of iron horses.

Just this wave of salvo bombardment caused astonishing casualties to the Yuan army's iron cavalry. There were as many as forty or fifty horsemen who were directly killed by the iron ball, and the number of iron floats who were indirectly affected and fell from their horses was about the same number.

Eight artillery guns in unison killed nearly 100 cavalry Tiefutu, and under normal circumstances, the Song army had to deploy at least one 10,000-strong gun array to achieve such a result. Such terrifying lethality and value-for-money really shocked the generals of this era.

If it was an infantry charge, the flesh gap swept by these eight iron balls was enough to break a military formation of the same number, but the cavalry was different. The iron cavalry of the Yuan army sprinted too fast, and the cavalry formation had just been swept out of eight gaps by the iron ball, which was quickly filled by the cavalry that followed, and the entire formation was still intact, as if the iron ball that swept out a bloody path was just eight blood waves splashing the torrent of iron cavalry, which was fleeting.

"Biting off a piece of meat, it's not enough." Seeing this amazing result with a clairvoyant mirror, Hu Yanxiao panted, sweated all over, and spewed out a breath of hot air, "Come again!" ”

After another series of reports "reloaded", the Huyan Xiaoling Banner was slashed down, and the second wave of salvo toms sounded, and in the frightened eyes of the hundreds of thousands of troops, the eight iron balls once again set off a bloody storm.

Rumble! The flesh and blood burst open, and the broken armor pieces splashed everywhere, and the dingding ding hit the root armor of Baijianu, and half of the broken iron leaf shot out, deeply embedded in Baijianu's left cheek, and immediately blood flowed like an infusion.

Baijianu didn't pay any attention to the sharp pain in his cheeks, and even ignored the knight who was smashed by the iron ball in front of him and the iron ball that roared past him, stared at the blood-red eyes, and shouted hoarsely: "There are still a hundred steps!" Rush over and kill the Song people! ”

The knights around him responded in unison: "Rush over!" Kill the Song people! ”

More of Tiefutu's furious muffled voice came from the pig iron mask: "Rush over!" Kill the Song people! ”

The sound is rolling, and the noise is very loud.

In the middle of the formation, Zhao Lie's clenched left fist slammed into the fence of the nest car: "There is one more round!" ”

After the front army formation, Jiang Fenglie hunted, his hand slowly stretched out, and grabbed a token......

Hu Yanxiao held two command flags in both hands, one split the cannon and the other held high to evacuate.

In front of the musketeer array, Shi Yangce galloped back and forth, constantly shouting: "Musketeer brothers, open meat today, kill a horseman, and get a third-level formation!" ”

The third-level battle capture is a hundred household military merits, that is, any enemy killed is counted as a military merit according to the killing of a hundred households, and any iron floating map of the Yuan army can be called a hundred households, which is completely equal to the third-level formation.

The musketeers roared in unison: "Protection! ”

In front of the battle array, there was a sound of reloading ammunition and armor vibrating.

"Third Strike - Fire!"

At the moment when the eight cannons fired in unison, Jiang Feng ordered the arrow to be thrown: "The dragon roars and the artillery array is withdrawn." ”

Hearing the horn blowing behind the formation, the flag was raised high, and there was only one big word "withdraw" on it.

In front of the dragon's roaring artillery array, there was a loud sound of pulling carts and mules, turning cannons and carrying boxes. This kind of rapid evacuation of the artillery battalion has been practiced more than 100 times, and every time the Song cavalry sprints back and forth in front of each exercise, the artillery battalion brothers have long been used to it. Although it is far from being said that Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his color remained unchanged, at least there were a few thousands of horses on the side and his feet were not soft......

When the enemy rushes into battle, there is a so-called saying that "there are only three arrows in front of the enemy", that is, they can only shoot three arrows at most, and they must retreat to the rear of the formation, otherwise the enemy will rush to the front. Although artillery far exceeds the range of arrows and can strike at enemy troops from a long distance, the reloading of artillery is also far more complex and time-consuming than arrows. Especially in the face of the Yuan army's iron cavalry charge, the distance between the two armies was rapidly shortened, and the number of times the artillery could be fired was only three rounds.

However, it was these three rounds of artillery bombardment, and the twenty-four iron balls rolled into the three thousand cavalry formation one after another, like stones smashed into a pile of porcelain, shattered one piece, unstoppable, and directly and indirectly killed Tiefutu, more than three hundred horsemen-Tiefutu rushed into the formation, as long as they fell off the horse, they would die, and there were no wounded.

The three thousand iron floating figures, before they rushed to the front of the Song army, lost one percent, and such casualties can be called heavy.

"Artillery, what an artillery......" Boyan, who was watching the battle from afar, held the broken golden whip tightly in his hand, as if he was trying to crush something.

"The Song artillery array has retreated!" Many generals of the Yuan army gritted their teeth and roared, "Rush! Rush forward and step on the artillery array of the Song people! ”

At this moment, Tiefutu in the distance rushed to the front row, and suddenly it was like falling into a pit, everyone and horses were sinking, rumbling and rolling, hundreds of war horses screamed and knights howled, soaring into the sky.

Tiefutu rode into the formation, and finally rushed into the stake formation.

The wooden stakes are like a forest, and the front line is eighty paces away from the musketeers and artillery arrays, and finally thirty paces from the two formations. The stake array within fifty paces is the thorny jungle of cavalry. If Tiefutu wants to rush over, he is bound to pay a heavy price. This price is no less than three rounds of artillery fire, or even exceeded.

At this moment, Tiefutu had no choice, knowing that they would die, they could only charge.

As the tower-like knights stormed one after another, the stakes roared incessantly, the stakes toppled and broken, and splinters of wood flew wildly. Whether it is a hard wooden stake or a flying wooden thorn, it cannot damage a knight covered in heavy armor, and even a war horse that is also wrapped in armor has limited damage, but it is fatal to the fragile legs of the horse.

The three-foot wooden stake specializes in the lower three roads, and the flaws in the iron float map are in this "lower three roads".

A war horse covered with armor was tripped by the staggered and messy wooden stakes, and the men and horses weighing thousands of pounds fell down with a bang, not dead for a while, but wearing such heavy armor, once they fell, it was difficult to get up, like an iron turtle that turned its belly - this turtle shell brought them a strong defense, but at the same time it also brought a heavy load.

And these fallen iron floats not only broke through the obstacles for the successor army, but also became a stepping stone for the successor army - although it is cruel, but this is the essence of war.

At this time, they were only a few dozen steps away from Tiefutu, and the musketeers and artillery battalion guards who were completely facing Tiefutu looked at Tiefutu who were like moths fighting fire, rushing into the stake formation one after another, and they were all shocked by the fierceness of the Mengyuan cavalry, and even more intimidated by the rolling ironclad riding wall. Many of the soldiers had parched mouths, pale faces, chest tightness, and could barely breathe - this was the ancient tank formation, the power of heavy cavalry charge.

Although many of the soldiers were extremely nervous with white knuckles holding their guns, they could not resist firing indiscriminately, because at this time Tiefutu had not yet entered the optimal range.

At this moment, the artillery battalion guard suddenly cracked on both sides, and a dull wheel wheel came from it.

At the same time, Hu Yanxiao's arrogant voice sounded: "The tiger roars and prepares to kill these for Lao Tzu!" ”
