Chapter 403: Flying Artillery

The two thousand warriors were small in size, but their shouts were full of morale, and they were fearless in the face of the defenders of the city, and such slogans alone were enough to support them in their provocation of this ancient city!

The soldiers' fighting spirit was out of control, they were laughing and cursing mercilessly, their shouts became more and more enthusiastic and neat, His Royal Highness felt that his feet were shaking, so he simply ordered the canopy to be lowered, and as soon as he stepped on the ground, he took advantage of the situation to raise his head and let out a shout, he drew the saber at his waist, and swung it at the head of the city.

The momentum of the Blessed One's army swelled, and the prince brandished his scimitar in unison by the sound of the army, and the green tendons bulged out on his neck, as if he was about to rush forward, and it was difficult to suppress it.

Bows and crossbows were erected at the top of the city, but the soldiers with arrows did not fire, because the army under the city did not fight them, and they took up their bows, but they were always bluffing, shaking their bows, and only sending the cacophony of scolding in strange language that people could not understand more and more terrifying. And that alien prince has gradually subsided.

As the prince stopped, a drop of cold sweat slipped down his face, but fortunately no one noticed it. He realized the sound of the horses maneuvering in the rear, and suddenly felt bad, and he moved forward step by step, and the curses and ridicule from all sides were already earth-shattering. The team also moved forward like a rising tide. He looked up at the city, the steaming light of the fire twisting the arrows to the point of firing.

Although surrounded by the toughest mounted archers, the prince felt a high degree of nervousness about the danger above. Cold sweat drilled out of his back, Shuofeng raised his battle robe, but the enthusiasm of fluttering wings was not at all, in the fiery atmosphere, he shivered, he began to observe left and right without stopping, only afraid that this young and vigorous army could not suppress the desire to fight, and raised their bows and arrows in unison, and put unstoppable sharp arrows on the high-spirited bow tires.

He moved sideways, through two restless horses, and found Hamid, who grabbed Hamid's reins and hurriedly said, "Stop, stop me!" ”

Hamid barely recognized him, and when the next sentence of scolding went high-pitched, he suddenly turned his head and looked at His Royal Highness the Prince as if it was an extremely long time, and he woke up like a dream, "Your Highness......"

His Royal Highness the Prince folded one hand into a trumpet and said in a hoarse voice that was extremely difficult to read, "Tell them to stop!" Wait in place, just in moderation! ”

There was a swishing sound, a rain of arrows in front of them suddenly descended, and the horses in front of them dodged the fierce arrows, and the advance of the two thousand cavalry was thus delayed, and the neighing of the horses caused a restless approach.

"Stop!" Hamid shouted. The shield was raised at the front, and several arrows were pierced on the hard shield, and judging from the shaking of the arrows, the arrows were so powerful.

His Royal Highness looked up and saw that the flags with strange Jurchen characters written on them at the head of the city had suddenly been cut down and thrown down the city walls, and then they were erected with flags with another script written on them!

"Khitans!" Hamid exclaimed.

As soon as he finished speaking, black smoke suddenly erupted from the city, accompanied by a thunderous roar.

His Royal Highness the Prince's complexion changed drastically, and as a well-informed prince, he certainly knew what it was.

It shouldn't be like this! Didn't Mujit's elite elephants succeed?

Before the Blessed Warriors under his command knew what had happened, a large black ball had flown down and rolled past him, and one of the Holy Blessed Light Cavalry was hit, and half of his body disappeared in an instant, leaving only two legs to ride on the terrified warhorse.

The prince looked back, and the black ball continued to roll through the crowd, piercing the ranks of the hussars.

One of the light cavalry happened to pass in front of the frightened mount as he controlled it, his armor rendered useless in the face of the tremendous kinetic energy, and the iron ball pierced through the thin iron sheet along with the flesh, and after a small bounce on the ground, it broke the calf of the other light cavalry. The horses under his crotch were also disemboweled, and their entrails flowed to the ground.

The sudden blow apparently shocked the Holy Bless army, and they didn't even know where the blow came from or how it was used - the black ball flew faster than the naked eye could discern it. The hussars from the exotic land, who were not given the order to attack, remained in place, trying to calm down the restless mounts.

The flesh and blood exposed its fragility and softness under the attack of this terrible weapon, and once it was grazed by the black orb, it was irreparably seriously injured. In addition to the severed limbs of the light cavalry who were directly hit, there were also clouds of blood mist that flew out. Only the secondary ejection formed after the black ball landed, people could faintly see a vague black ghost, wantonly plundering one fresh life after another in the crowd.

After two rounds of blows, Hamid and other generals finally connected the firelight, roar, and Mo Ming's blow on the enemy's city. The other seems to possess an uncanny weapon that far exceeds the range of a crossbow and is almost equal to that of a fort's trebuchet. Thinking of this, Hamid ordered his men to blow the horn of the attack - as long as the distance was closed and the crossbow was fired, this long-range strike weapon would basically be useless.

However, the Holy Bless Hussars showed a very different reaction. Some of them began to speed in the direction of the castle after hearing the trumpet, some were still struggling with their mounts, and a small number of people had retreated to the rear, and the whole team was immediately confused.

"There are even shotguns."

Sun Hui, who was hiding in the clouds, couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise as he looked at the gunners and craftsmen operating one cannon after another in the castle below.

The shotguns looked like barrel-shaped tin cans filled with finger-sized balls and sawdust, and the diameter of the cans was smaller than the barrel, so an additional thin wooden board had to be stuffed into the packs after they were filled.

"This 'flying artillery' of theirs is very meticulously made! And it's an iron cannon, no worse than the brass cannons you get. Ye Chuchu said beside Sun Hui.

For Ye Chuchu, who had experienced the harsh test of the Soviet-German battlefield, after coming to the Song Dynasty, it can be said that today is the first time to witness the amazing damage that this special cannonball can cause.

Those "tin cans" burst due to the huge pressure difference after flying out of the muzzle, and the iron beads inside were scattered like raindrops on the enemy, and the Holy Bless Hussars within three hundred meters were suddenly covered by a torrent of metal.
