Rumble!

A huge stone landed on the front edge of Yuan Yun's flagship tank, and although it was still three or four feet away from the edge, a great tremor could still be felt on the deck.

No one expected that these Karasuma people could build trebuchets, and they were the kind of model that was launched by a stand, so the range was very long, and they could throw such huge stones at this moment.

Unfortunately, the only regret was that the range of the opponent was still a cut behind the artillery, and when a row of artillery began to fire, the newly erected trebuchets were reduced to slag.

With Zhang Liao's order, the tank began to slowly approach forward, the opponent's cavalry phalanx had been assembled, and now in the face of the sudden tank oppression, he suddenly panicked, and the other party no longer knew whether to advance or retreat, and there was chaos for a while.

Zhang Liao had already prevented the artillery from continuing to fire while letting the tank advance, and the cavalry on the other side seemed to feel that the god-like killing weapon was silent, so soon many generals began to organize their subordinates, and then tentatively launched some small-scale charges.

Zhang Liao looked at the small group of rushing cavalry very calmly, and just ordered his subordinates to attack with gunpowder bullets and steel crossbows, in this case, some Karasuma knights really rushed closer, and some of them had even shot arrows into the tank.

With such a precedent, the morale of Karasuma's side was greatly boosted, the cavalry phalanx began to stabilize again, and those neighing horses were also forcibly held down by their own masters, and at this moment, the blood of these Karasuma warriors was boiling, and now was the best time to take revenge.

When more than a dozen cavalry rushed back and forth and killed several times, the generals of the opposing side seemed to really feel that the artillery was dumb, and after repeated trials like this, they finally decided to issue a military order for a full-scale raid.

Not long after, when Yuan Yun was still in the cabin watching Guo Jia and Xu You play, there was a sudden sound of a horn in his ears, which was completely different from the horn sound of the Powder Army, and he couldn't help frowning.

Guo Jia was well-informed, and when he heard the sound of the horn, he said with a smile: "The Karasuma people are about to launch a full-scale raid, General Zhang Liao is despicable enough, we haven't heard the sound of artillery for a while, and the Karasuma people probably think that our sharp weapon is not good, so they definitely want to eat us in one bite." ”

Xu You touched his beard, and then wondered: "It stands to reason that the five tanks are equipped with countless artillery pieces, why didn't any of them sound, is this ......?"

"General Zhang Liao is planning to lure the enemy deeper, and when these cavalry start a full-scale raid, those artillery pieces will immediately sound again, and cut off the retreat of these cavalry who rushed to the nearest place, and then as long as they are crushed with gunpowder bullets, gasoline bombs, and steel crossbows, the stainless steel guard plate on the perimeter of our tank is so high, the arrows of the Karasuma people have no attack at all." Guo Jia explained again.

Yuan Yun was a little puzzled at this time, so he asked, "Don't these Karasuma generals suspect that these are our plans, so they start launching a full-scale raid so easily?" ”

Guo Jia glanced at Yuan Yun strangely, and then patiently explained: "The standard for the Karasuma people to select generals is Wu Yong, not brain power and strategy, so these Karasuma warriors are extremely fierce when they fight, even more terrifying than the flood beasts, but the Karasuma people attacked the Central Plains several times, and they were stopped by the previous Gongsun Zhan, not that Gongsun Zhan's force is stronger, but that he is willing to use his brains, and the Karasuma people always suffer from the lack of strategy, and can only rely on the speed of the horse, so these generals are not as Yuan Hou would generally think about so many problems." ”

The corners of Yuan Yun's mouth were crooked, and he immediately remembered the words of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong in his mind, that is, he compared these Karasuma people to reckless men, and now it seems that it is really not false at all, these enemies are really too muscular and lack of brains, no wonder Zhang Liao would use such simple tactics.

When Yuan Yun was still thinking about the words of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, the sound of artillery exploded outside the cabin again, followed by the dense sound of bows and crossbows and gunpowder shells, it was like setting off firecrackers at home during the New Year, and the sound of talking in the cabin could not be heard at all, so several people did not speak again.

Guo Jia and Xu You continued to play chess, while Yuan Yun felt a little bored, and originally planned to go to the deck to have a look, but finally gave up this idea, after all, he was seriously warned by Zhang Liao this time, and he must not set foot there until he has no choice.

Boredom, Yuan Yun suddenly rolled his eyes, and then said to Shi Shen beside him with a smile: "We should go and meet those businessmen who came with the army at this time, bargaining is not at this time, but when will we stay?" ”

……

Zhang Liao watched the countless tracks of the giant tank crush over the corpses of those people and horses, there was no pity in his eyes, and even became even more gloomy, they passed through several villages before, what these Karasuma people did was simply the anger of people and gods, and even the half-grown children were jumped up by the wooden poles, and then hung on both sides of the road.

And this kind of remnant drama has been seen too much recently, those Han villages that have not had time to evacuate have basically been slaughtered, and some villagers who were lucky enough to hide were also killed by hunger when the gunpowder army arrived.

"There is no limit to the use of petrol bombs!" Zhang Liao suddenly gave another order.

Those heralds were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly began to give orders, gasoline bombs are still very precious things at present, but the lethality of living creatures is also the most powerful, at this moment there is no restriction on the use, that is guaranteed that all gunpowder soldiers will choose this weapon, you can imagine how miserable this group of Karasuma cavalry who rushed to the nearest place will be next.

As the explosion of the gasoline bomb spread, a sea of fire immediately fell around the tank, and the Karasuma cavalry who rushed closer completely lost their direction, because no matter which direction they ran, they felt that there was constantly fire coming out around them, and as long as they got a little touch, the flames would immediately reach their bodies, so they could no longer be saved.

The first Karasuma cavalry to arrive instantly panicked, and the horses began to scatter and flee uncontrollably, and then in the thick smoke and fire, many knights could be seen colliding with each other.

The artillery has begun to fire a salvo at these rushing cavalry teams at this moment, and the dense shells immediately completely blocked the retreat, and the Karasuma knights in the middle have no way to turn around even if they want to, and at this time they can see the courage of the Karasuma people, when they have no way to avoid and have no escape, they all choose to blindfold the horse, and then start to launch a death charge towards the tank in a straight line.

Some of the knights had been plugged by their crossbows, but they were still firmly anchored to their horses, and then they crashed headfirst into the guards on the perimeter of the tank, and there were many people who did so, so there was a constant sound of banging on the guards.

The speed of the tank's movement began to slow down gradually, Zhang Liao couldn't help but wrinkle, he knew very well that this was not a power problem, but that the tracks under the ground had been wrapped in too many corpse fragments, which caused the speed to begin to decrease.

It is also conceivable from this that how many Karasuma knights died under the tank.

The artillery was still angrily spitting gunpowder and cannonballs, and the Karasuma Knight continued to charge without looking back, killing desperately, and desperately sending it to you to kill, such a strange scene, even Zhang Liao, who had experienced countless battle formations, saw it, and felt goosebumps behind him.

"Personal martial arts seem to be coming to an end, but in the future, all martial artists will probably start cursing Yuan Hou, right?" Zhang Liao snorted, and smiled bitterly in an instant.

A herald beside him didn't seem to hear Zhang Liao's words clearly, so he asked timidly: "Damn it, I didn't hear the general's order." ”

Zhang Liao smiled bitterly again, and then waved his hand and said: "There is no order to give, the battle has reached such a point, there is no longer any order, the Karasuma people are already red-eyed, and our soldiers have also killed mad demons, only when the other party is all dead can it really end." ”

After explaining this, Zhang Liao continued to look under the tank, at this moment there were still a large number of Karasuma knights constantly rushing out of the smoke, some continued to move forward, and some fell headlong, and it was impossible to get up again.

After more than half an hour, seeing that the number of Karasuma cavalry rushing towards him was getting smaller and smaller, Zhang Liao finally let out a breath, and then instructed the soldier who came just now: "Pass my order, the cavalry team is ready, and soon we will start to pursue these routs, tell them to kill and injure as few horses as possible, Yuan Hou said that this is a lot of wealth." ”

After the soldiers went down, Zhang Liao stretched his waist a little tiredly, but at this time he heard a crisp sound, and when he looked down, he found that a sharp arrow had been firmly rooted in his breastplate, and it actually penetrated the armor made of special steel, but it still did not cause any damage.

This couldn't help but make Zhang Liao stunned, looking at the eaves, I saw that not far in front of the tank, there was a Knight of Karasuma who was pressed under the horse corpse, he was not idle, but set up his bow and arrows, and then began to continuously release arrows, the strength of the Karasuma people can be seen.

Bang!

After a gunshot, the head of the Karasuma man who shot the arrow immediately exploded, and a large amount of brain pulp burst out from the back of his head, and even rolled up a large blood mist in the air.

When Zhang Liao turned his head to look, he found that Dianman was holding a spear in his hand, and only one shot resulted in the other party, and at this moment he was still not satisfied, and quickly took the newly loaded new gun from the retinue behind him, and shot out again, and soon a Karasuma knight who was riding a horse fell off his horse.

In the past few days, he has been practicing marksmanship hard, and I don't know how many birds have fallen into bad luck along the way, and the effect is that he has quickly become a recognized sharpshooter in the gunpowder army at this moment, and he can almost do no bullets.

Zhang Liao walked a few steps slightly, and then came to Dian Man's side, and then smiled bitterly: "In such a situation, is the little general Dian Man also very discouraged?" ”

Dian Man seemed to understand the meaning of Zhang Liao's words, and immediately nodded his head when he heard the words, and then followed with a wry smile, and said: "In the future, it seems that personal martial arts are really useless, once artillery and muskets are popularized in Luoyang, a projectile can end the life of a martial artist who has been practicing hard for decades, how unfair, Brother Yuan got these things, I don't know if they are good or bad." ”

"Good!" Zhang Liao replied without hesitation, and then continued: "Only in the face of such an overwhelming force can we return the world to peace earlier, and when that time only as long as the weapons are controlled, all will be taken into official possession, and the world should have no worries." ”

Dian Man was stunned and wondered: "I'm afraid this is also what Brother Yuan said, right?" ”

Zhang Liao nodded and said: "That's true, at a meeting in Luoyang, many of the prince's staff were against the production of artillery and muskets, saying that this kind of thing would only mess up the pattern of the battle formation, and Yuan Hou's suggestion at that time was like this, and I also think it is true." ”

Hearing this, Dianman did not answer again, but re-turned the musket handed by his entourage, and in an instant, he knocked down a rushing Karasuma knight again, and then he sighed and said: "After the crusade against Karasuma is over, the imperial court is probably going to be lively, while we are rampant here, Brother Cao Ang has already pacified Xiliang, and these are just relying on the strength of the Luoyang Gunpowder Army, so powerful that it is ridiculously strong, I believe that many people will not be able to sit still." ”

As soon as Dianman's words fell, the entire battlefield seemed to be suddenly quiet, and it was almost impossible to see the living creatures that could still run, except for the billowing fire, there was only black smoke rising everywhere, and almost even the clear sky was blocked by more than half.
