Chapter 128: The Fear of Being Dominated by Cannons

Rumble!

An earth-shattering bang tore through the quiet dawn.

A large amount of white smoke erupted from the muzzle of the gun, and a shell with a flaming tail blasted out in the white smoke, exploding in the center of the cavalry of that battalion, and in the area hit by the shell, the thick fog of gunpowder rose and blew out a huge crater, and the few horsemen in the middle of the explosion area were directly torn to pieces by the impact force of the instantaneous explosion.

The surrounding cavalry was also directly overturned by the shock wave of this violent explosion, and several horsemen and horses were shot by the fragments of this explosion and died on the spot.

This sudden explosion completely blinded this forbidden army.

The horses roared, frightened by the sound of artillery, out of the instinct of the animal's crisis, and regardless of the group of cavalry on their backs, they immediately spread their hooves and ran in all directions, and a large number of cavalry were subconsciously shortened by the sound of the cannons, or their bodies squatted or slanted, and now the horses were frightened and galloped quickly, and nearly 30 cavalrymen were directly overturned by the frightened horses and fell off their horses.

There was an even more unfortunate fellow, because the stirrup was stuck and he couldn't fall off the horse, but his foot was stuck in the stirrup, causing the man to fall off the horse, but the foot was still stuck in the stirrup, and the horse was frightened and ran, and immediately became a tragedy, and was pulled and dragged along.

Some were lucky enough to break free after dragging a little distance, while others were tragically dragged all the time.

Wang Tong, the commander of this cavalry, was even more dumbfounded, what happened?

He was at the front of the cavalry ranks, and the place where the shell hit was still a little behind the cavalry battalion, and his horse was only frightened and rushed forward for about ten meters, and was calmed by him, and then he turned his horse's head to look at the cavalry battalion.

The cavalry formation, which was originally a little scattered, was completely lost at this moment, and some of the cavalry at the front gradually calmed down the horses, and the cavalry behind them were completely disrupted, and the horses ran in all directions, and there was no shadow of the rider on the horseback.

The air was filled with the smell of gunsmoke, and white smoke was wafting in the sky, and Wang Tong was silent after seeing this huge cannon pit......

"Cool."

Li Chu's mood was extremely happy, this group of cavalry came in a phalanx, and everyone gathered together very densely, isn't it just convenient for Li Chu to open fire, such a dense scene is simply a cannon and an accurate, and the damage of the cannonball is maximized.

Before the group understood what was happening, Li Chu hurriedly ran to the loader's position, processed a howitzer shell and loaded it into the barrel, and returned to the gunner's room again.

The barrel swayed slightly up and down, and Li Chu was aiming.

On the castle tower.

Unlike last night, this time, Li Han and Chen Zu thoroughly felt the horror of the tank, what happened yesterday was too fast to see clearly, this time it was condescending, the field of vision was broad, and it was still in the rear of the tank, and the whole process of opening the tank to being hit by the target and exploding can be seen clearly.

Not only Li Chu and Chen Zu, but also so many soldiers on the city tower.

His heart was trembling, and at the same time, he was secretly excited and excited, without him, such a sharp weapon like a ghost and god was on his side.

Rumble!

The muzzle of the cannon was again a cloud of white smoke, and the tank hull was pushed backwards by the huge recoil force for several meters, and the shell bombarded the center of the cavalry of the forbidden army.

This time, the cannonball was a little crooked, and it did not fall in the middle of the crowd, but in the position of the regiment that fell in front of the cavalry, there was an explosion, and thick gunpowder smoke rose......

How effective this shell was, Li Chu no longer looked at it.

Immediately after firing the gun, he opened the gunner's cabin, drilled his head out of it, waved at the soldiers on the city walls, and then immediately got back into the tank, transferred to the driver's position, and drove the tank forward.

"Brothers, follow me."

On the city wall, Chen Zu, who had received Li Chu's instructions, immediately went down the city tower with a machete, and rushed out of the city gate with five teams of soldiers, Shen Ning was also taken out by Chen Zu, and ten teams of soldiers were united and rushed out of the city gate and followed Li Chu's tank quickly.

The first two horsemen on the side of the forbidden cavalry were also stunned by the two explosions behind them, and looked back, the scene behind them stunned them, and before the two horsemen came to their senses, Li Chu's tank had already arrived.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and there was a little fog, the Leopard 1 tank rushed out of the fog, and when the two horsemen found it, the tank was already close in front of them, and the two wanted to turn the horse's head and run away, and the horse under the crotch was also shocked by the tank that suddenly rushed out, and hurriedly ran back under the traction of the cavalry, spreading the hooves and running desperately.

However, it was too late to run.

The speed of the tank had been pulled, but the horse was turned around and ran back because of a pause, and the horse's speed had not yet risen, and the tank had already caught up, and in the horse's wail, the tank knocked over the horse, and the knight on the horse and the horse ran over......

At the same time, because of this rolling, the speed of the tank slowed down, and only one rider was left to escape luckily.

The cavalry battalion of the forbidden army was completely chaotic at this time.

Recruits are afraid of artillery, veterans are afraid of machine guns.

This is a very classic term for war analysis in later generations.

Although this group of cavalry belonged to the top forbidden army in the Great Song Dynasty, this so-called top was only against the soldiers of the same class.

Fear gripped his heart, his ears were already ringing, his brain was hallucinating, and he even felt that there were cannonballs that exploded on the ground everywhere around him.

Even, many of the cavalry dismounted, knelt on the ground, and bowed to the sky, muttering prayers and begging for God's forgiveness.

In their eyes, these two shells were mistaken for a thunderbolt from God.

Some cavalrymen were even more frightened and hugged the horses' necks and let the horses run recklessly.

Some of the more calm cavalry captains, some were shouting to their teammates, others immediately turned their horses and ran back, away from this place of fear and hell.

It's horrible!

The morale of the cavalry of this battalion of forbidden troops has been weakened, and on the wall of Xiangcheng County, Li Han saw that Li Chu had approached this group of cavalry with a tank, and on the vast flat land, there were already many horses wandering around, and he immediately ordered the soldiers to shoot the cloud-piercing arrows into the sky.

Ning Rong, who had already gone out of the city to ambush, immediately climbed out of the low pit with the soldiers, and the two squads immediately dispersed, one person and one target, each holding a lasso to chase after the group of unmanned war horses.

After not chasing the cavalry with the flag behind him, Li Chu slowed down the advance of the tank and waited for the large forces behind him to converge.

However, at this moment, a white horse behind him overtook the tank, and the knight on the horse wore a chain of lion armor, a wolf's helmet, a purple cloud robe, and a horse lance, and rushed towards a forbidden cavalryman in the first place. (To be continued.) )
