Chapter 390: Brutal Battle

The raid on the enemy's artillery convoy was carried out very well.

Basically, one charge down, and the enemy has already been routed.

Subsequently, the raiding genetics drove the wooden wedge they carried into the hole in the lead hole behind the artillery gun, and the gun was completely scrapped.

Yes, you can't install a lead, so what's the use of such a gun.

I can't launch it at all.

And the cannon at this time was completely different from the cannon of later generations, and there was no need to say anything to destroy it.

Just a small wooden wedge is enough, which is very simple and convenient.

The soldiers transporting the artillery, except for those who ran away as soon as they saw the opportunity, the rest of the people were all killed on the spot, leaving not a single survivor.

The battle didn't last long, just a few minutes.

After doing all this, the Gene Human troops immediately withdrew from the raid site and disappeared into the jungle shrouded in the night.

From attacking, to fighting, and then quickly evacuating, everything went very smoothly and perfectly.

On the side of the Holy Roman Empire, they still don't know that their 'weapons of destruction' have been destroyed by their enemies.

They also confidently launched an attack the next day, to crush the American Volunteer Army in one fell swoop, and then march into French territory to wreak havoc.

Early the next morning, the Holy Roman Empire received the news of the destruction of artillery, which cast a thin shadow over the hearts of the already confident officers.

But they still didn't take it to heart.

After all, the commander has already specified a strategy to defeat the enemy, hasn't he?

Attack from three sides, and the enemy will simply not be able to parry it at that time.

No matter how sharp and powerful their muskets were, they could not cope with attacks from three directions at once.

Win!

Today!

I ate breakfast unhurriedly, and the time came to about ten o'clock in the morning.

The soldiers of the Holy Roman Empire seemed to be very unhurried.

As if, they are not here to fight. It's for an outing.

If such an army is placed in the Song Empire in the Americas, it is not even qualified as a militia.

The position of the American Volunteer Army is somewhat elevated, a place called the Mecasro Heights on the French border.

As soon as the volunteers came, they occupied this advantageous position.

On the side of the Holy Roman Empire, on the other hand, the terrain was not so good.

However, due to the large number of its own soldiers, the Holy Roman Empire did not take this matter to heart at all.

In their opinion, how could they not be able to defeat the opponent's troops of less than 10,000 people.

"It doesn't matter where they come from, no matter how innovative their tactics are. We must defeat them today! Attack Tang Decheng and grab it for three days! ”

Ooh! Ooh!

Before the war began, the commander of the Holy Roman Empire made a very generous promise.

That is, after allowing the army to defeat the enemy, attack and capture the city of Tangde and plunder for three days.

You know, this is a very lucrative job.

Therefore, after this order was given, not only the mercenaries who worked for their lives, but also the regular soldiers of the Holy Roman Empire. I also looked very excited.

Yes, everyone is working hard with their heads in their hands, isn't it just to get rich.

In this era, countries are not fighting for any ideals or causes. It's to get rich.

So, this order boosted everyone's morale at once.

Offensive!

According to the plan that had been drawn up long ago last night, the phalanx of the army of the Holy Roman Empire began to march slowly.

On the high ground, Naba, the commander of the Volunteer Army of the Americas, picked up a telescope and looked at it. Let the back put down.

"We may have to work a little harder today, the enemy is attacking a lot of troops, and it seems that they want to eat us in one bite." Naba's expression was grim, and it seemed that he was also full of worries about today's fight.

The number of soldiers on his side was originally less than that of the other side.

And today, the opponent attacked, to say the least, and sent out half of the men.

It can be seen that the enemy's intentions.

Even if the enemy only sends half of his troops to fight him, he will still have three times as many as his own.

In terms of the number of soldiers, you have always been at a disadvantage.

At the same time, the other side still has a reserve of more than 30,000 people, and he does not even have a reserve.

If something really happens, it would be unimaginable.

But fortunately, Naba Zhilu said that the weapons on his side are sharp and the tactics are novel, but they are not so unbearable.

Today's battle is really fought.

"Naba, look over there, the enemy seems to be dividing his forces."

Beside Naba, Juan, who was sitting on the back of a black steed, suddenly spoke.

Following Juan's instructions, Naba looked through his binoculars.

I saw the phalanx of the Holy Roman Empire slowly advancing, and suddenly the left and right wings broke away from the large army, and it seemed that they wanted to divide their forces to attack their own two wings.

"They have a good calculation, it seems that they want to launch a three-sided attack at the same time, so that we will not be able to deal with it."

After one glance, Nabbah immediately guessed the other party's plan.

"The enemy has become wiser, but unfortunately they don't know what to do, and we already have a solution to this situation."

Juan chimed in.

"Order, five rows become three rows, and the left and right wings are divided!"

As Naba's order was given, the herald quickly carried it down.

After receiving this order, the soldiers on the positions of the American volunteers began to quickly change their ranks.

What was originally a whole of five rows of queues has become three blocks, each with three rows of queues.

"Humph! Do you really think we're muddy? Looks like I'm going to give them a little bit of a good look today, bombardier ready! ”

Nabbah gave an order, and between the gaps in the queue in front of the three positions, some genetic warriors armed with bottle bombs ran out. They rushed straight into the ranks of the Holy Roman Empire, and did not stop until they were in range of their bombs.

"What are these guys going to do?"

In the rear of the Holy Roman Empire, a group of officers exchanged heads.

In yesterday's battle, the enemy did not have such a situation, so they could not judge what the American Volunteer Army was planning to do.

If you attack yourself in advance, then you can't just send such a few people, right?

Everyone was very curious.

Soon, though, they won't be curious. Because they will see the answer they want to know.

Light the fuse and toss the bottle out of the shackle.

The bombardiers are all strong, strong, waist-round, and that strength is very great.

As a result, the distance at which the bomb is dropped is very long.

At the same time, the enemy's weapons could not hurt them.

Rumble!

The first bottle bomb exploded in the ranks, bursting with lead bullets and glass shards, blasting a gap in the middle of the phalanx.

Immediately afterward, other bottle bombs began to explode one after another.

Some bombs exploded only after they fell to the ground, and some bombs exploded directly above everyone's heads.

But no matter which way it explodes, it will cause great damage to the Holy Roman Empire.

Oh my legs!

My 'Gigi'!

I can't see it anymore. I can't see, my eyes!

The bottle bomb that falls to the ground and explodes, the lead bullets in the late stage of the explosion will shoot from the bottom to the top in all directions, so those unlucky guys are basically injured in the lower body.

Therefore, it is not surprising that someone's 'Gigi' was injured.

In this regard, the American Volunteer Army can only regret this.

It's all a matter of personal luck.

If you're lucky, you'll have a broken calf, or a big piece of flesh on your buttocks.

Anyway, the combat effectiveness is definitely going to be lost.

But if you're unlucky...... Then under the power of such an explosion, 'Gigi' will definitely not be able to save it.

Not to be crushed on the spot. It's just rotten, in short...... It's very sad.

And some bottle bombs will explode in the air because of the lead.

At this time, a large part of the lead bullet in the bottle will be from top to bottom. Shoot down from all sides below the skull.

At this time, the upper body, especially the head, is usually injured.

Although the soldiers of the Holy Roman Empire, some of them wore triangular iron helmets on their heads. But most of these people are non-commissioned officers, and most of them do not have such equipment.

So, they just cupped.

Powerful buckshot shot. It often pierces the soldiers' celestial spirit covers, or lifts them open.

Shards of glass can also get into the eyes.

Therefore, it is not surprising that so many people fell to the ground without a sound, or were bleeding and said that they couldn't see anything.

Head wounds usually die quickly.

After all, this is a very important part.

But to be able to die on the spot is already very lucky.

It is better than soldiers who have been wounded to the head but cannot die, or who have been hit by lead bullets or shards of glass and have not died, and who have to suffer alive.

The bombardiers each had ten bottle bombs.

Within three minutes, the men would have dropped all the bottle bombs, then quickly turned around and ran back to the rear of their positions, then picked up flintlock pistols to keep on guard.

On the attacking side of the Holy Roman Empire, the phalanx at the head had basically been destroyed by the formation, and the battle had been completely lost.

If it weren't for the presence of rear officers and law enforcement teams, they would have turned around and fled now.

Before they could enter the effective attack range, the enemy had inflicted such a heavy blow on their faces, and the faces of the officers of the Holy Roman Empire in the rear had become very ugly.

They could see that in the wave of attacks just now, their side had lost at least more than a thousand people.

The enemy's kind of weapon that will be projected and then explode is really too powerful.

"Let the surviving soldiers in the front phalanx withdraw, and the phalanx in the back go up, and don't forget to bring back the wounded soldiers."

The commander gritted his teeth and gave such an order. (To be continued.) )
