Chapter 1059: San Francisco (7)
ps: The cold is severe, and I want to go for an intravenous drip. I have a hunch that what I wrote today must be scum
West of San Francisco, the battle is in full swing here in the Great Plains.
Although the alliance of the five tribes seems to be powerful, it seems to be pressing the Imperial Army. But this is not the case.
Although the alliance of the five tribes took the initiative to launch a charge, their warriors were stopped when they were still two hundred meters away from the Imperial Army's line.
The warriors of the five tribes went forward one after another, but they just couldn't take a step forward.
And the two wings of the Imperial Army's Indian vassal troops erected spears at this time, forming a hedgehog-like spear array, which also gave the five major tribal coalition a headache.
"Steady progress!"
At this time, the Imperial Army, already accustomed to the enemy's charge, began to advance in turns while firing at the command of the commander of the column.
The Imperial Army's move immediately brought changes to the battlefield.
At that distance of two hundred meters, there were already piles of corpses at this time, as well as the warriors of the five major tribes who were seriously injured but did not die immediately.
The people who died, on the whole, they were lucky.
Those who are seriously injured and do not die on the spot are guilty.
At this time, the battlefield was very chaotic, and no one would pay attention to the wounded.
They kept wailing in pain, hoping that their comrades would help them.
Unfortunately, this kind of thinking is a complete luxury at this time.
"The Imperial Army has moved, so let's move forward on our side."
When the Imperial Army on the central front moved, the vassal Indian tribes on both flanks immediately followed.
The hedgehog-like spear formation caused considerable losses to the warriors of the five major tribes who rushed over.
On the central front, the Imperial Army musketeers took turns rolling forward, and each advance they inflicted heavy casualties on the enemy on the opposite side.
From the beginning of the war to the present. About half an hour has passed.
After this short half hour, the alliance of the five major tribes can be described as suffering heavy losses.
The previous rounds of artillery coverage had already cost them almost more than 10,000 people.
Then after half an hour of charge, they lost at least two more percent of their fighters.
In this way, in this half hour, they lost at least more than 30,000 troops.
And the spirit of the alliance of the five major tribes has been defeated.
Yes, they had been charging at the positions of the Imperial Coalition for half an hour, but in half an hour they had not shaken the Imperial Front at all, and they themselves had lost quite a few soldiers.
Seeing such a charge, there is no hope at all.
Warriors of the five tribes. I'm sure I'll have some thoughts in my heart.
The momentum of the charge had slowed, and now it was finally the turn of the Empire to wield.
It was pressed by the enemy for half an hour, although the enemy paid a huge price, and there were still great casualties. But in the heart of the Imperial Army, it has long been holding its breath.
When Wang Shan gave the order to attack, the Imperial Army began to advance.
Where have the five tribal alliances seen such a way of playing, this tactic of shooting forward in turns, is a bit too new for them.
After being caught off guard, the charging momentum of the five major tribes slowed down. A big gap was opened.
"The rear team collects the guns! Grenade ready! ”
The musketeers at the very back of the advancing musket queue put away their muskets and quickly pulled out their wooden-handled grenades from their marching bags.
It's a good thing.
Zhao Hongyu: They got it from the Virtual Century.
Speaking of which, this grenade is capable of being equipped into the Imperial Army. I also have to entrust the blessing of Chen Zhenbang, who wants money for death.
This guy has a friend who manages the county armed forces department, and it just so happens that there is a warehouse under the jurisdiction of the armed forces department that needs to be cleaned up, and there is a batch of grenades in it that need to be scrapped.
So, Chen Zhenbang found Zhao Hongyu and asked him if he wanted this thing. Sold cheaply.
For Zhang Hongyu at that time, although this kind of grenade was old-fashioned, it was very powerful in this era.
Therefore. At that time, Zhao Hongyu didn't think about it, so he accepted it.
and immediately asked about the quantity, and then sent the money to Chen Zhenbang.
Moreover, he also established a long-term cooperative relationship with Chen Zhenbang, but any weapon that needs to be dealt with in the future can be sold to Zhao Hongyu.
In fact, Zhao Hongyu originally thought that he wanted to get some cross-era weapons from Chen Zhenbang's hands.
It's just that Chen Zhenbang's courage is too small, and it's okay to sell grenades, but he doesn't dare to make up his mind about those Bayi bars or something from the county armed forces department.
You must know that the reason why he dared to sell these grenades was because this thing was originally meant to be disposed of.
The county has allocated funds.
Chen Zhenbang and his friends swallowed the money, and at the same time said that the grenade was disposed of at a low price to Zhao Hongyu.
Chen Zhenbang and his friend outside here have reaped a lot of benefits.
Chen Zhenbang in the virtual world is a very strange existence.
Although that world realm is a completely virtual world realm, this world realm has its own unique trajectory.
Even Chen Zhenbang, who lives in this world, has the same weaknesses and obscenities as real people.
In the real world, Chen Zhenbang is definitely a big embezzler and corrupt element.
After dealing with Chen Zhenbang for so long, the genetic people in the empire who have been opened up by Zhao Hongyu are all aware of his character.
After all, these genetic people who have the authority will need a lot of urban construction materials if they want to develop the city. And these materials are impossible to have in this era, so they can only be purchased from the Metaverse.
But if you buy it from the virtual world, you have to go through Chen Zhenbang, a middleman.
The reason why it is so troublesome is because Zhao Hongyu's investment in scientific research of virtual traders is too low, otherwise he would not have to be peeled off by Chen Zhenbang if he produced it himself.
But the investment in scientific research is too cheating, and Zhao Hongyu and Wang Shan have been cheated.
Therefore, in this situation of needing a lot of funds in the early stage, they had no choice but to give up investing in scientific research institutions. Instead, get certain resources from Chen Zhenbang.
Although Chen Zhenbang is always plucking goose, and the goods handed over by his brother-in-law in collusion are all fake and shoddy copycats.
But in this era, these goods can be regarded as high-end products.
Zhao Hongyu: They are not picky about this at all.
After all, even if it is a copycat, it is not worried about selling in this seventeenth world.
Therefore, they also recognized Chen Zhenbang's hand.
Because he has maintained a good cooperative relationship with Chen Zhenbang, Chen Zhenbang will have such a business of cleaning up warehouse grenades.
Otherwise, Zhao Hongyu and they would not be able to buy such a grenade.
Don't look at the wooden-handled grenade has been phased out in the 21st century, but this thing was placed in the 17th century. That's an absolute killer.
Zhao Hongyu didn't care if it was an old-fashioned weapon or not, he accepted it all.
And Wang Shan, who has authority and has become the governor of San Francisco, also found Chen Zhenbang to buy a batch of this wooden-handled grenade.
This is the reason why the soldiers of the Imperial Army under the command of Wang Shan have this kind of grenade in their hands.
The Imperial soldiers' arm strength was good, and after they opened the safety ring, they said that the grenade was thrown at the team of the five tribal alliances, that is, about seven or eight seconds later, an earth-shattering explosion sounded in the enemy queue on the opposite side, and at the same time bursts of flames and black smoke rose.
A wave of air from a powerful explosion. They even threw some people into the air.
You can see very clearly that there are also many stumps and broken arms that were thrown into the air by the air waves, and this scene is very bloody.
But this is on the battlefield, so it's normal for such a scene to occur.
The alliance of the five tribes that was counterattacked. Having lost their sharpness, they had to begin to retreat in the face of the Imperial Army's advance.
However, how could the Imperial Army let them go.
Therefore, in order to distance themselves from the Imperial Army. The warriors of the Five Tribal Alliances had to turn around and run back as far back as they could.
But what they didn't expect was that they did this. The soldiers in the rear, who did not know the truth, felt as if their own side had failed, and the army began to retreat.
Therefore, there are still 80,000 or 90,000 people in the five major tribal alliances, which began to collapse rapidly.
Wang Shan put away the binoculars with a smile, he felt that he regarded these Indians as opponents, and he was really a big pig's head.
"Let those vassals go after them, the battle is now decided. The enemy has little power to continue to resist us, now all we have to do is find them and kill them all. ”
The five allied tribes on the battlefield began to rout, and the warriors scattered in all directions, and they could no longer stop themselves from fighting the Empire.
The reason why Wang Shan said this is not unreasonable.
The plains have basically established the hegemony of the empire.
And the failure of the five tribal alliances will inevitably be divided because of some discord.
After all, the five major tribes were originally hostile, and if it weren't for the fact that they had to deal with Wang Shan, the five major tribes would not have united at all.
Their union is fragile.
Now that this battle has been lost, the patriarchs of their five tribes must have some different thoughts.
Therefore, it is difficult for them to continue to unite.
According to Wang Shan's own estimate, the split of the five tribes is definitely an inevitable result, but what will be the plans of the five tribes after the split?
Wang Shan squinted his eyes and thought carefully for a moment.
Eventually, he gave up on this thought, because he felt that no matter what choice the five tribes had in the end, they would not be able to compete with their own army.
So, you don't have to think about these questions at all. (To be continued......)
