Chapter 891: Breaking the Persian Chariot!
"What was that?"
Abu, the general of the Arab Empire, was watching the battlefield, sweating profusely.
The Han camp on the battlefield was filled with gunsmoke, especially the Han army position on the left, and the dense sound of arquebuses sounded.
Not only that, but the Han army used an unprecedented weapon that could easily destroy the hob chariot.
Abu had seen an arquebus, but never a Hongyi cannon.
At present, Chu Tian is still the only lord with artillery.
Although in the later stage, it is possible for other lords to exchange for artillery troops, but so far, Chu Tian has brought the Hongyi cannon, which undoubtedly shocked all the lords and their generals who witnessed the power of the Hongyi cannon.
Abu was now shocked by the Hongyi cannon that Chutian had brought from the Han Empire, and his palms were sweating unconsciously.
He couldn't even react to what was going on, and with a loud roar, and the white smoke that filled the air, several hob chariots were easily destroyed.
The Hongyi cannon roared, and in cooperation with the Shenji Battalion, a dense range of shotgun, buckshot flat-firing hob chariots!
The hob chariot in the front row was riddled with holes under a salvo!
The war horse fell after being shot, and the chariot overturned!
The Persian spearmen and archers standing in the chariot of hobs were thrown out of the overturned chariot and smashed to the ground, trampled by the horses, or run over by the chariots in the rear!
Under the blows of the Shenji Battalion and the Hongyi cannon, the hob chariot was in disarray, losing the possibility of impacting the flank of the Han army.
The power of the Shenji Battalion and the Hongyi cannon proved to Darius I, King of Kings, that times had changed.
In front of the Hongyi cannon, which is good at direct fire, the chariots that directly attack the enemy line have no power to resist.
Of the three hundred chariots with hobs, Darius I sent one hundred to attack the left and right flanks of the Han army, and in order to break through, behind every hundred chariots, 10,000 elite infantry then broke through the formation.
However, the chariots attacking the left side of the Han army were almost completely destroyed, and nearly half of them were destroyed by other destroyed chariots.
The hob chariot that attacked the right side of the Han army also suffered heavy losses.
On the right side of the Han army were ten Hongyi cannons to bombard chariots, while Liang Hongyu's Jianyan crossbowmen had an effect similar to that of the arquebusiers of the Shenji Battalion, and the Shenji Arm Bow could also shoot through most armor at a certain distance.
The crossbowmen in the front row fired horizontally, while the crossbowmen in the back row fired, and the rain of arrows covered the sky and harvested the lives of horses, slaves, and warriors.
The chariot of hobs was almost wiped out, and the Persian infantry behind the chariot was already engaged with the cavalry on both sides of the Han army!
The Persian cavalry dispatched and made a detour to the left and right, still wanting to break through the flank of the Han army by virtue of the superiority of troops!
On the front of the Persian army, there were also a hundred chariots with hobs.
It is estimated that Darius I noticed that the Han army had set up a chariot formation in the middle, and the hob chariot could not break the chariot array connected by iron cables, so he did not move for the time being, and only waited for the left and right flanks to make a breakthrough, so that the Han army could be flanked on three sides.
Despite the defeat of the chariot to an unknown weapon in its first appearance, Darius I sat in the golden chariot and still won the battle.
He believed that with the advantage of a large number of troops, it was completely enough to defeat the Han army.
It's just that this victory came a little hard.
There were a hundred chariots lined up in the middle, and Darius I believed that although the chariots could not hit the backbone of the Han army, the Han army did not dare to take the initiative to attack the chariots.
The infantry of the Han army, with the assistance of the firing arms, will definitely not take the initiative to attack the Persian army......
Suddenly, Darius I's pupils shrank, and he almost stood up from the chariot.
Wu Qi's Wei Wushu and the Silver Spear Xiaojie Army left the chariot formation and attacked the backbone of the Persian army head-on!
"The Han army must be crazy, their infantry has no long-range troops to cover, and they will be crushed by my chariot corps!"
After Darius I attacked at Wu, he ordered the remaining hundred military chariots to attack the Wei Wushu who came out from behind the chariot formation!
The slave raised the reins and drove the war horse to gallop, and a hundred hob chariots attacked Wei Wushu!
War horses gallop, military vehicles crushed!
On the flat ground, Wei Wushu and the hob chariot are about to collide!
Wei Wushu shot the hob chariot with the divine arm bow, and many hob chariots were shot into hedgehogs, but there were still chariots rushing towards Wei Wushu!
When the chariot approached Wei Wushu's phalanx and was about to collide, Wei Wushu suddenly separated the passage and let the chariot enter the phalanx, and then the pikemen and crossbowmen in the phalanx strangled the chariot that entered the formation!
The chariot of hobs is once again destroyed!
The Wei Wushu Legion, which devoured the hob chariot like an ancient beast, began a fierce battle with the Persian infantry under the command of Wu Qi!
"Only Wu Qi's Wei Wushu Legion can temporarily change formation in the face of the impact of the chariot and invite you into the urn."
Chu Tian witnessed the scene of Wu Qi's army strangling the Persian chariot, and couldn't help but sigh.
The hob chariot, which Darius I gave to everyone, did not need to be hit with artillery, and was only a foot soldier, and it could also be dealt with.
Of course, most of the ordinary generals have been intimidated in the face of the terrible chariot phalanx, and only a commander of Wu Qi's level can destroy the chariot legion at a very small price.
In the ensuing battle with the Persian infantry, there was almost no element of tricks, and Wu Qi relied on his high bonus to Wei Wushu and the Silver Spear Army, and stormed the Persian Chinese army to reduce the pressure on the Han army on both sides.
The Han army and the Persian army were in a stalemate, and the Chinese army led by Wu Qi was unexpected, and the Persian army reacted a little slowly, and it seems that it has been suppressed by Wu Qi at present.
The Han cavalry on both sides fought with the Persian cavalry, and Hua Mulan even personally held a gun into battle and killed dozens of Persian cavalry in a row.
This Persian army is an NPC legion during the war, so there is no psychological burden!
The generals of the Chutian forces are not afraid of being killed, and they can be resurrected if they withdraw from the national war anyway, so Hua Mulan went deep into the enemy formation twice this time, and the Persian cavalry that fell under her spear was as many as 74 people!
The Silver Spear Formation formed a spear phalanx, with increased attack power and ability to break the formation, and smashed several rows of Persian infantry in front!
Wu Qi's goal was to kill Darius I, and only in this way could the losses of the Han army be minimized.
The defeat of the Persian army was not the ultimate goal.
The enemy of the Han army could be any legion, and if it was to overthrow Darius I and suffer heavy losses, then it would not be far from being eliminated.
The ultimate goal is to obtain the most exploits with as few losses as possible.
Wei Wushu and the Silver Spear Army, facing the ordinary Persian heavy infantry and crossbowmen, were still overwhelming!
Darius I saw that Wu Qi's army was approaching him, and his face turned pale: "Use the undead army!" ”
Ten thousand undead troops appeared on the battlefield.
The undead are like legions from hell, and Darius the Great himself provides them with bonuses!
When the undead drew their twin swords, the focus of the entire battlefield was on the undead army.
"Undead army! This undead army is stronger than any Persian lord I've ever seen! ”
Abu Abu, a general of the Arab Empire who was secretly observing the battlefield, was sweating profusely.
The Undead Army, the most elite class of the First Persian Empire, and the Praetorian Guard of Darius the Great!
During the reign of Darius I, the undead army reached its peak and conquered the Quartet!
"It seems a little bit bad...... This time the loss is going to be big......"
Chu Tian could clearly feel that when the undead army was preparing to attack, the battlefield was full of slaughter, and it was obviously in the Gobi, but it was cold.
Wu Qi's Wei Wushu, Darius I's undead army, and the high-ranking foot soldiers of East Asia and West Asia, actually fought on the same battlefield!
