Chapter 283: Lord Shiva's Third Eye?
After all the personnel crossed the Tianzhu River, they patiently put everything in order, and the army began a new march.
After a day's journey, Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin was pleasantly surprised to meet the scouts sent by Major Du when he was just beginning to prepare to set up camp.
It turned out that after the Marbury light cavalry was sent by them, it did play a great role, capturing some prisoners one after another, not to mention, their sphere of influence became larger.
Countless villages, large and small, have stories of the Marbury ** team...... Under the careful propagation of the Brahmin high castes sent earlier, there is a legend throughout the northern region that it was Lord Shiva who sent heavenly soldiers to save the Tianzhu followers.
Major Du had been occupying a small city, and he had sent scouts everywhere, and had been waiting for the army to go north.
He mainly sent scouts from the Marbury army, one of which happened to meet the Marbury light cavalry sent by the army, and the encounter between the two sides made them very excited, and after sending the personnel to report back to Major Du, the rest of the scouts hurried to meet Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin.
After Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin listened to the scout's report, he thought to himself that he was already conservative when formulating the battle plan, but this guy was more conservative than him!
It's been almost a month, and he's still playing in a turtle style...... But fortunately, although they are alone, they have basically not suffered losses.
Besides, Major Du at least completely controlled the western direction of the northbound army...... Now, it is enough to focus on the north and take care of the east!
Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin told Marbury's scouts to quickly go back and report, and the two sides should meet at a position about two days ahead and fight together towards Delhi City!
During the two-day march, the army marching north was harassed by the light cavalry of the Delhi Sultan...... This reassured Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin...... The enemy is not holding back any big moves, they are running out of donkey skills!
The cavalrymen who came to harass them later discovered that all the troops wearing the same uniforms should not be provoked, and sometimes before they could get closer, they raised some strange short spears together, and after sending out a line of fireworks, their own men rolled off their horses!
The rest of the cavalry had to flee...... The cavalry had no suddenness of action in the plains, and the other side still had the kind of weapons that could kill people from a distance, so they could only be beaten passively......
However, the miscellaneous rebels are lambs who can be attacked...... Those people simply did not have the ability to defend under their swords.
The light cavalry of the Delhi Sultan targeted them...... Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin was extremely angry at the successive casualties...... Even if it is a rebel army, he can't bear the loss!
Because they believe that they have come with him, and he will protect them!
Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin ordered his four-wheeled convoy to be dispatched and built a protective line on the perimeter of the rebels...... When the enemy's light cavalry reappeared, the hand-cranked Gatling machine guns on the four-wheeled chariots taught them a hard lesson, and six machine guns killed and wounded more than 300 light cavalry!
This continuous firing weapon was completely unexpected by the opponent, and the fleeing hussars never appeared again...... Who would have thought that the four-wheeled monster carriage, which seemed to have few people, would go through such a disaster!
After Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin inspected the battlefield, he was quite dissatisfied.
In this encounter, their 1st Tank Brigade had a total of eight tanks with a total of eight hand-cranked Gatling guns...... As a result, only six machine guns were successfully fired!
The fighters on those two tanks could only shoot with rifles.
A machine gunner was unstable and too excited because he suddenly noticed the appearance of the enemy's light cavalry, and he shook too fast and caused him to jam...... The other machine gunner was because the magazine was inexplicably stuck in the magazine, and the bullets couldn't be fired, not to mention, the magazine couldn't be taken off for a while!
The two machine gunners waited for Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin's reprimand.
Of course, Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin was not happy...... Since two machine guns were not put into the field, they let go of at least a few dozen more cavalrymen!
The hand-cranked Gatling gun is a natural killer of cavalry, and in the next encounter, he still wants to wait for the enemy cavalry to charge in a platoon!
As a result, they let go of too many cavalrymen, and those people must have exposed the great weapon...... And the harvest is not much.
But what's the use of scolding them?!
Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin patted them on the shoulder and said, "Let's do more live-fire training in the future...... Some of our bullets are ......"
In fact, when President Wu Dapeng came here, he brought almost all the reserve ammunition from the Liuqiu Military Factory.
The hand-cranked Gatling gun is simple in construction and extremely durable...... However, the processing of machine gun bullets and magazines is a bit difficult, and it is far from reaching a high mass production.
But what else can Wang Xuanbin say to them?!
No matter how flawed the big killer is, it's still a big killer!!
If mortars, rockets, and Gatling guns were deployed at a certain pass, even if Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin led the attack himself, he knew that it must be a battle with no return...... Maybe in order to obey the military order, he can only sacrifice this life to the battlefield!
Fortunately, only the army of the Federal Empire has ...... in this world
This imperfect battle obsessed the warriors of Marbury's army...... With this weapon against the cavalry, they can leisurely reshoot at the side, and the reload speed is even faster.
The recruits of the Marbury Army have grown into veterans...... Maybe Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin asked them to attack Delhi City alone, and after paying a certain price, they could almost complete the task.
But the great honor of occupying the city of Derry, it is impossible for him to give it to others...... Not even Major Du.
What Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin didn't know was that the impact of this imperfect battle on those rebels was huge!
Of course he didn't know, no matter what weapon they used...... In the myths and legends of the Tianzhu Sect, they can all appear!
The Brahmin high castes of the rebels, who called the hot air balloon "Vimana"; Calling the rockets "the great arrows fired by Vimana"; Call the mortar "Lord Shiva's Dharma Bell" and think it can make a deadly loud noise!
When they saw the hand-cranked Gatling gun, they decided it was the third god of Lord Shiva!
In the deities of the Tianzhu religion, Shiva is usually dressed as a yogic ascetic.
He was covered in grey, his hair was tied in a bun, he wore a crescent moon on his head, a long snake around his neck, a skull on his chest, a tiger skin around his waist, and a trident, an axe, a tambourine, a club, or a doe on all four arms.
He has a terrifying third eye on his forehead with extraordinary powers, and can shoot marbles or divine fire in succession, which can shatter everything to pieces or burn everything to ashes.
Legend has it that Karma, the god of love, disturbed Shiva while he was practicing asceticism, and Shiva got angry, and he shot marbles from his third eye and beat Eros to pieces!
But Gamor, the god of love, is not dead, but has no body, so love is invisible.
Later, Chairman Wu Dapeng also heard such rumors, and he did not laugh at others as his officers did...... But he fell into deep thought as if he had heard the rumors of "Vimana...... In his secret letter to King Zhang Anguo, he said: "We are now the most powerful ...... on earth But, for some reason, I'm always in awe of something I can't say......"
King Zhang Anguo replied that not only us, but also our descendants should always have a sense of awe...... In this world, there are too many things we don't understand and don't understand, and we must not let children only have the idea of fighting the heavens and the earth.
