Chapter 180: No Conscience Cannon

In later generations, during the War of Liberation, the People's Liberation Army had very few artillery, and when the weapons and equipment were inferior, the officers and soldiers created a terrifying weapon -- an explosive pack launcher that used gasoline barrels as barrels. The main body of this weapon, also known as the explosive projectile, is an empty gasoline barrel, which is filled with propellant, and then the explosive package bundled into a disc shape is placed in it, and then the propellant is ignited, and the 10-kilogram explosive package can be ejected to a distance of 150-200 meters.

The caliber of this weapon is absolutely amazing - the barrel is as thick as the caliber is, and the powerful blast of the huge explosive bag will blow up everywhere it passes, the pillbox, the people and horses. Many of the enemies who were blown down often did not find any wounds on their bodies, but they were bleeding from seven holes and were shocked to death. After figuring out this situation, the Kuomintang army simply called this kind of thing a "cannon without conscience".

After all, this explosive projectile has some similarities with the heavy mortars of 200 years ago, used at large elevation angles, with a short range but surprisingly powerful. The weapon was originally used against enemy fortresses, then used to siege cities, and finally used to show its magic on the battlefield of Huaihai.

The unconscionable cannon is a special product born under China's special national conditions.

In fact, the range of the unconscionable cannon is limited, only 200 meters, which is its biggest drawback. Maybe a sniper rifle, or a mortar, can threaten the conscienceless cannon. It is only on special occasions that it can come into play.

Despite its many disadvantages, its advantages are obvious: simple, practical, and powerful. There is no need for a barrel made of stainless steel, nor a precision cannonball, just a simple gasoline barrel, an explosive pack is enough, and the power of the shot is also huge, killing a large piece.

Therefore, the cannon without conscience is also the best alternative in the era of lack of firepower.

In this era, it is somewhat difficult to create a Shenwei cannon; It is also difficult to make a Franco machine; It can only be a haunted conscience cannon.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

There is no gasoline barrel, it can only be replaced by a water tank, buried in the soil, with the launch of the explosive pack, the conscience cannon is powerful, a large area is blown up, and the people turn over on their backs in the middle of the war horse herd, and with the violent explosion, the war horse is also frightened, or spin in place, or flee in panic, or jump around. In short, the dense cavalry assault formation, at this time completely dispersed, and the army could not be formed.

The Jin army suffered heavy losses!

And the soldiers of the Song Army, looking at the unconscionable cannon, fired out, and shouted out in surprise. This is the first time that the conscienceless cannon has been fighting, but it has shown super power, and the range is stronger than that of trebuchets, and the power is really shocking.

And Zhao Pu was relieved to see that he had no conscience, and finally blocked the attack of the Jin army.

At this time, the Song army in the formation had completed the encirclement and annihilation, and the Jin army in the encirclement was quickly wiped out, and it was meaningless to want to rescue.

Looking at the situation in front of him, Wan Yanye's heart was dripping blood, the defeat was decided, not only was it difficult to rescue the Jin soldiers who had fallen into it, but it also made these cavalry fall into a dead situation. These Song troops were so lacking in virtue that they were ambushed like this.

Wan Yan Ye counted the number of people, and there were more than 2,000 cavalry at this time, and under the first battle, more than half of them were lost.

At this time, not only was the combat strength damaged, but also the morale was seriously damaged, and the whole army was panicked and fearful.

No one is not afraid of death, even the Jurchen army is afraid of death. It's just that in the past, too many victories disguised death, and in the face of those huge victories, the so-called death seemed insignificant. At this moment, the shadow of death is infinitely expanded, and the heart is panicked.

"Retire!"

Wan Yanye gritted his teeth and said the three words of humiliation.

At this moment, there is no way out except to retreat. In this battle, the Jin army was already wounded, but the Song army suffered weak losses, and if it did not retreat at this time, it might even be wiped out. The war horse turned, and the Jin army began to slowly retreat.

It's just that at this moment, it's too late to run.

In Zhao Pu's dictionary, either you don't fight, or if you want to fight, you will fight a war of annihilation, and you won't make it into a sandwich meal.

Didn't this group of Jin Jun want his life?

Then he will chew up all this golden army, and want his life, without shedding three liters of blood, which is something that no door has.

"The cavalry battalion attacked, and annihilated this Jin army for me, but if I don't destroy this remnant army, I can't return it!" Zhao Pu ordered.

"The cavalry has just been trained, and their combat effectiveness is low, so they are not suitable to participate in the war!" Wang Wuyue said worriedly.

In the Bazi Army, there has always been a shortage of cavalry talents, and Wang Wuyue happened to be proficient in cavalry, so she became the commander of the cavalry battalion. It seems that there are some irregularities for women to be generals, but there is no talent, so they can only make do with it.

Under Wang Wuyue's training, the Bazi Army formed its first cavalry. Under the strict training, the combat effectiveness of the cavalry has also improved rapidly, but the cavalry is still immature, still a little naïve, and the combat power is still weak.

Zhao Pu didn't explain, just ordered: "Execute the order!" ”

"Yes!"

Wang Wuyue took a deep breath and could only continue to execute. The emperor's order, rejected for the first time, was somewhat excessive; The second refusal is a bit rebellious. Without much hesitation, Wang Wuyue got up and left, walked into the cavalry battalion, and after some orders, the cavalry battalion quickly attacked.

The large battalion on the right was wide open, and the cavalry battalion poured out of the nest and pursued the Jin army.

Watching Wang Wuyue leave, Zhao Pu was reluctant to let go of his heart, but he still held back.

"Your Majesty, isn't it a little dangerous to let the cavalry battalion attack!" Li Quan on the side persuaded.

Zhao Pu said calmly: "We have no way out, we can only do this!" ”

The cavalry has just been trained, the time is still relatively short, and the combat power is also low, so it should be mainly to avoid battle. But Zhao Pu doesn't think so, good soldiers are fought, and only soldiers who fight a hundred battles are elite soldiers. Blindly avoiding war will not train good soldiers. Avoiding war will only wipe out the morale of the army and will only turn the army into malnourished deformities.

At this time, the cavalry battalion had 5,000 people, and 4,000 were capable of fighting; 4,000 elite cavalry, chasing 2,000 remnants of the Jin army, if they are not victorious, then the cavalry battalion has no value in existing. He doesn't have much time or time to raise an idle soldier.

Soldiers, survive for war!

"It is advisable to chase the poor bravely, and not to become a famous overlord!" Zhao Pu said.

At this moment, the Jin army had fled, and the cavalry had already pursued. After the battle, the camp was in shambles, with corpses overlapping, scattered swords and arrows, and blood staining the ground black and red.

Looking at the miserable scene, Zhao Pu only felt his appetite churning, as if he was about to vomit, but in the end he endured it.

And at this time, it also began, cleaning up the battlefield, cleaning up the corpses on the ground, sorting out the scattered camp, and everything was restored to order.

Those robes that have died in battle must be buried in time; The injured Song soldiers should be treated in time; Those Jin Jun who are not yet dead should make up for it, there is no Geneva Convention in these years; And those broken armor, swords, spears, etc., must be repaired in time, and the next time they can go to the battlefield again.

"I don't know about her, is she okay?"

At this moment, there is nothing to do with Zhao Pu, sitting in the big tent, but the mood is extremely worried, and I don't know how the cavalry is fighting!

The soldiers are in danger!

To fight a war is to play with one's life. There is a war, and no one knows if they will survive. At this moment, Wang Wuyue led his troops to pursue, I don't know what the battle situation was, he was victorious, he was defeated, he was dead, and he was still alive.

Soon the night was dark, and Wang Wuyue's cavalry battalion still did not return.

At this moment, Zhao Pu couldn't sit still anymore, so he could only send the guard battalion to respond.
