Chapter 831: Roman Turtle Formation

On the opposite side of the Kyushu coalition army, a team that seemed a little strange in their eyes rushed out.

The soldiers of this team were dressed in very strange costumes, armed with long iron spears, and a very strange and transparent shield.

These people wore a large helmet on their heads, the kind of helmet they had never seen before. And wearing this big helmet made the people on the other side look even more weird.

A large banner embroidered with the word "demolition" fluttering in the wind. Guiding this team out of the enemy's position....... where did this army come from?

When the Kyushu Coalition Army saw the 'Imperial Cooperative Army', such a thought involuntarily popped up in their hearts.

Yes, it's the first time that the people of Kyushu have seen a troop dressed in such a strange costume.

After all, riot suits and camouflage uniforms will not appear until more than 200 years later.

But now, because of Zhao Hongyu's relationship, he appeared in the seventeenth century in advance, so he will always be considered a little nondescript or even very inconsistent by the natives of this world.

It is important to know that people's aesthetic views are still very large in the gap between the times.

However, now that this is on the battlefield, the outfit or something is not so important.

What matters is the combat effectiveness of this strange unit opposite.

Could it be that the enemy intends to let such a legion of five or six hundred men attack him?

Although he was defeated by a weapon that he had never seen before before but had powerful lethality, it seemed unrealistic for the other party to completely defeat him with such a few people.

At this time, Fujita had completely recovered from being overturned to the ground by shelling.

So, when he saw Yuji Kawabe and his soldiers rushing out of the enemy's position, he couldn't help but think about this question in his heart.

"Reorganize my team and keep attacking! Now that we are very close to the enemy's front, we must not waste our efforts! ”

The recovered Fujita sophomore. Although he was apprehensive about the previous bombardment, he quickly made a reasonable judgment and arrangement.

Yes, there is only a distance of thirty meters between the two sides now, and as long as the whole army is united, such a distance will definitely be able to rush through.

Although in the process, their own side has suffered heavy losses, but the battle has reached such a point, it is necessary to continue to fight hard.

Now, his side is holding on, so why not the enemy on the other side.

Now the test. It is the will to fight on both sides.

Which side has a stronger will to fight, and can grit its teeth and insist on the most reluctant, then the victory will belong to which side.

For the current battle situation, Fujita High School made such a judgment.

In fact, Fujita High School knew that the side that was struggling to support it now was not Zhao Hongyu's side at all, but his Kyushu Coalition Army.

Although Zhao Hongyu's side is under pressure, it is not as serious as Fujita High School thinks. Compared with the Kyushu coalition army, Zhao Hongyu's side is still relatively easy.

For this, Fujita High School is impossible to be clear.

Of course, it cannot be said that Fujita is wrong to think so. After all, judging his idea by common sense is not only not wrong, but also very reasonable.

It's just that. Fujita Takaji didn't know what kind of existence he was facing. He hadn't taken into account the weapons used by the enemy, as well as the weapons used by his own side, as well as the opponent's battle formation.

Other words. At this moment, Fujita High School also said that Zhao Hongyu and others were also regarded as the army of the Cold Weapon Era, and he was thinking about how to deal with them.

At this point. Fujita High School will not understand.

After all, as a native of the Orient in the seventeenth century, how could Fujita be a sophomore in the world?

Therefore, it is inevitable to make such mistakes.

Unless there are people like Zhao Hongyu in the army of Fujita High School, it is impossible for him to avoid such a mistake.

It's just that it's difficult for someone like Zhao Hongyu to appear in Fujita's second army. You must know that the probability of something like Zhao Hongyu appearing is very low.

Of course, there is indeed such a guy in this plane, but this guy's luck is not very good.

Yuji Kawabe led his infantry to the battlefield in a small phalanx.

They kept poking their spears into the bodies of the seriously injured Japanese and sending them to hell.

The soldiers of the Imperial Alliance Army in the front row erected their shields in front of them, and then the people were tightly pressed together without revealing the slightest gap.

The battle formation they used was the battle formation of the ancient Romans adopted by Zhao Hongyu.

This is commonly known as the Turtle Formation.

The soldiers in the center of the battle formation held their non-blast shields above their heads to defend against the projection of weapons on the opposite side.

Compared with the tortoise formation of the Romans in history, the tortoise formation composed of riot shields has an advantage. Because this anti-riot shield from the modern age of the virtual century is transparent in addition to being strong.

There is no need to observe the situation on all sides like the battle formations of the ancient Romans, where the ocean shows a little gap.

Facing this team with strange costumes and strange formations, the Kyushu people thirty meters away were very curious.

However, they soon received an order from Fujita Koji, so they put away their curiosity and relaunched an attack on Yuji Kawabe.

At this time, Yuji Kawabe, as well as the Imperial Alliance Army under his command, became an obstacle in the way of the opponent's attack.

If the Kyushu coalition wants to attack head-on well, then they must be eliminated.

Therefore, at the first time, after the Kyushu coalition army attacked again, their target was the imperial army.

And it just so happened that the Imperial Allied Army attracted the attention of the frontal attack of the enemy, and also bought a lot of time for the genetic soldiers in the rear, so that they could take advantage of this time to cool the barrel of the flintlock pistol.

This is the point that the flintlock pistol is not good, if the barrel is too hot, you need to cool it down before you can continue to use it.

Otherwise, the barrel of the gun will be blown up, damaged, and even injured by the soldiers.

There have been more than a dozen cases of this just now, so we have to be cautious.

Of course, a problem like this has not been solved in the modern age of another time and space.

Thermal weapons will have such problems and troubles, and there is no way to avoid them.

It's just that the technology and conditions at that time were relatively mature, so the barrel could be replaced.

But here in Zhao Hongyu, he doesn't have such ability.

"Guns!"

Yuji Kawabe himself was in the center of the turtle formation, nervously observing the situation around him.

Iguchi Shuzo was right next to him.

Both of them knew that this time they would either show their faces or fail.

If they want to live better in the future, then they must withstand the enemy's attack today.

Therefore, the two gave the soldiers a death order, and they must withstand the attack of the Kyushu people here.

With Yuji Kawabe's order, the tightly knit turtle formation revealed a little gap, and the spear transformed by the long iron javelin stretched out, and in an instant, the turtle formation became a hedgehog formation.

The slender and sturdy spear penetrated the Kyushu soldiers who rushed over, skewering them on the spear like meat skewers, which looked very terrifying.

The unlucky Kyushu soldiers, because they didn't have time to stop their charge, so they had to continue to move forward for a distance after their bodies did not penetrate, and then they could stop.

And because the charging formation is too dense, the people in front are often pushed forward by the people behind, and they just face the spears and watch them pierce their bodies.

This is very cruel.

Soon, on the long spear, there was a string of Kyushu soldiers, and because they were overwhelmed, the soldiers threw away the spears. Fortunately, the soldiers in the back handed over the spears in their hands, so the hedgehog array continued to poke out their spears, giving great damage to the Kyushu soldiers who charged head-on.

It's just that this kind of damage is small compared to flintlock pistols and grenades.

However, it was very effective in blocking and weakening the enemy's offensive, and bought precious time for the genetic soldiers in the rear.

The attack on the front side slowed down somewhat, but the attack from the other three sides began to intensify.

In the same way, the other three genetic soldiers also began to encounter some situations and troubles such as the frontal position.

Because the musket was used too often, the barrel began to heat up and needed to be cooled.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible to reload gunpowder.

One by one, the news was reported to Zhao Hongyu in the center of the phalanx.

Zhao Hongyu also approved that they could use disposable knock-off bazookas.

Even though there seems to be a crisis now, Zhao Hongyu's confidence has not wavered.

He firmly believes that he must win this battle in the end.

Because since the beginning of the war, the losses of the Kyushu coalition army have been very large.

The second charge has been fought until now, and the opponent's strength has been reduced by half again, and now there are only 40,000 troops left.

Therefore, as long as Zhao Hongyu and they can hold on to the last day, then the people of Kyushu will definitely not be able to withstand it.

You must know that from the beginning of the battle in the morning to the present, the people of Kyushu have lost a total of more than 100,000 troops.

There was simply no way they could afford such a large battle loss.

Therefore, as long as you persevere, then the victory will definitely be yours.

In terms of insisting on this aspect, Zhao Hongyu and Fujita High School are surprisingly consistent.

It's just that the sources of self-confidence that the two sides rely on are very different.

Fujita's sophomore relied on a large number of troops, while Zhao Hongyu relied on sharp weapons. (To be continued......)
