Chapter 564: A Helpless Choice

Zhen Er screamed in his mouth, and collided with a cavalryman from the north of the mountain on the opposite side, the mace and the steel knife met in the air, making a tooth-aching friction sound, and the weapon in the enemy's hand was shocked by Zhen Er, but Zhen Er's wrist was also shocked to a little numb. However, these are only momentary things, and it is too late to think about it, Zhen Er took out a short spear from behind him, such a short spear has six shots behind Zhen Er, not for hand-to-hand combat, but for throwing and killing the enemy.

A short spear just flew out and threw it at a cavalryman from the north of the mountain who rushed over from the opposite side, Zhen Er didn't look to see if the short spear had killed the enemy on the opposite side, but just swept it with the corner of his eye, and locked his gaze on the body of another cavalryman from the north of the mountain.

This short spear is very suitable for cavalry combat, it can be used as a short spear, it can be used as a dart throw, it kills multiple birds with one stone, and it is a must-have weapon for everyone to kill people in the cavalry of Black Domain City.

More than 100 cavalry quickly killed the cavalry in the northern part of the mountain who rushed to the rear.

Zhen Er, who was still unsatisfied, sat on his war horse and shouted: "Follow me!" ”

The artillery men and launchers in the back saw that Zhen Er had left the rear team, and gritted their teeth and stomped their feet angrily, they had become lambs with no one to guard, but fortunately, the cavalry in the northern part of the surrounding mountains had been killed, otherwise wouldn't it be .......

At this time, the role of the usual drill is reflected, and the faster action has already installed the launch rack and waited for the launch order.

"Launch at will, two hundred and fifty steps in front of the target!"

The launchers were hesitating whether to wait until the other soldiers were ready to launch together, but time was running out, and the cavalry in the northern part of the mountain had already tasted something wrong from the scattered attack formation at the beginning, and was gathering to prepare for a second wave of attack.

Time is the victory!

"Launch!"

The first oil bomb took off into the air, then the second, then the third, and as soon as the soldier adjusted the launcher, he did not hesitate to start firing.

At this time, even a fire oil bomb can pose a little threat to the cavalry in the northern part of the mountain, and buy more time for the infantry formation to assemble, how dare you hesitate at all.

"The artillery is ready, ready to be fired!"

Artillery firing is completely different from the launcher firing oil bombs, and the power of artillery in this era can only be described as miserable in the eyes of later generations. If you use artillery to attack a single target, it is the effect of the cannon hitting mosquitoes, and whether an iron lump can kill an enemy is about the same as the probability of winning the Mark Six lottery.

In order to maximize the power and effect of artillery, it is necessary to use it in a concentrated manner, and it must be used against a dense enemy force.

People who know the performance of artillery have already regarded this kind of artillery as a chicken rib, and the conditions for use are too harsh, and the threat of artillery can be easily reduced to a minimum with a skirmish formation.

However, artillery also has its own advantages, and this advantage is a subsidiary characteristic of artillery, that is, the sound is huge. Untrained war horses, after hearing this kind of cannon roar, often panicked, even the cavalry on the horse could not control the frightened war horse!

I can't help but say that this effect makes people laugh and cry.

"Stabilize the formation!"

Nearly a thousand people have gathered around Wang Peng, and such a result is already a good result under the sudden blow of the cavalry, but Wang Peng is still not happy.

The cavalry in the northern part of the mountain on the opposite side was preparing to launch a second wave of attacks, and the number was as many as six thousand, this number made Wang Peng a little incomprehensible, "Is this the elite of the northern part of the mountain?" ”

Judging from the losses just now, this should be the elite of the cavalry in the northern part of the mountain, but the number is a little less than I estimated.

"Could it be that the northern part of the mountain has fallen!"

This thought flashed in Wang Peng's mind, and then it lingered again, it was really hard to imagine that after the northern part of the mountain was hit by the Mugyu tribe, there were not many elites left.

"To bet or not to bet!"

In the final analysis, Wang Peng is an old man who seeks the country, steady and redundant, but this time is different, what is the strength of the opponent, no one can say, the people of Murowei are very backward in their correspondence and transmission of news, and Heiyu City's understanding of the northern part of the mountain is still a year ago.

At that time, the northern part of the mountain was still very strong, and it was able to survive under the noses of the more powerful Mughuls, so there was naturally no need to think about the strength.

However, this time, the sudden southward migration of the northern part of the mountain was obviously lost in the battle with the Mughuls, but how much strength was lost is still a mystery.

If the east is all the elite cavalry in the northern part of the mountain, at this time, the Black Domain City will send troops to attack the lair in the northern part of the mountain, and the effect will be twice the result with half the effort. Occupy the nest in the northern part of the mountain, and all the crises will be solved. What if not? The cavalry of Black Domain City encountered the elite of the northern part of the mountain in the west, it must have been a tragic battle, it was difficult to say whether it could win or not, and the loss was also unbearable for Black Domain City.

What Black Domain City is thinking about now is not to defeat the northern part of the mountain in front of him, to eliminate the northern part of the mountain, and what to do with another southern mountain, the strength at that time was greatly damaged, and the Black Domain City really couldn't keep it, so how to fight, how much loss was within Wang Peng's consideration, this was definitely the most difficult choice.

"Stay in formation, the enemy is coming!"

Intuition told Wang Peng that there is a great possibility that the northern part of the mountain in front of him is all the elite of the northern part of the mountain, through clairvoyance, Wang Peng can clearly see the face of every cavalry in the northern part of the mountain, very young, most of them are between twenty and thirty years old, such an age is also the period when a man's vitality is the most vigorous, and the combat effectiveness is naturally not bad.

"Inform the Black Domain City, this is the elite of the northern part of the mountain, we will drag the cavalry in the northern part of the mountain for two hours here, and the victory belongs to the Black Domain City!"

The order is issued, which means that this infantry will no longer have any possibility of reinforcements, and whether it can support it until the end of the battle can only be left to fate.

"Crossbowmen ready, target one hundred and twenty paces, shoot up!"

"Artillery men prepare, target three hundred and fifty steps, first round of preparation, put!"

The artillery roared, the ground shook, the smoke of gunpowder rose, and six hot iron eggs flew out of the muzzles of the cannons and smashed into the cavalry in the northern part of the mountain that was galloping.

The first iron egg fell into the cavalry, a cavalryman in the north of the mountain didn't know what was going on, the weapon in his hand was still waving, but the head on his neck was gone, and another cavalryman in the north of the mountain next to him saw that the body of his companion in front of him seemed to be missing something, and before he could figure out what was happening, he felt as if he had been hit his chest, and his whole body flew backwards, and his body could still see the war horse under him running desperately in his sight in mid-air, It's just that there is no one on horseback anymore.

In fact, the best way for artillery to deal with cavalry is to scatter bullets, but now there is a shortage of gunpowder, let alone shots.
