Chapter 234. Summons a 6-pounder cavalry cannon!! (Grand Chapter)

Under the blue sky, billowing yellow sand mixed with dust swept through this vast world. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Dead silence and desolation, this seems to be the eternal label of the wilderness.

The whole wilderness is also like a stagnant water, and no matter how much Chopin stirs the waves, it has no meaning for this lake without a trace of life.

Sometimes he can't help but wonder if he will be bored to death if he continues like this.

And after more than a week of eliminating the "Five Patterns" beast and marching forward, there was finally a little difference in this barren land.

It is a long river dotted with sparkles in the sun, and the water is so clear that even the fish and the textures on the fine stones under the surface of the river can be faintly discerned.

There is no doubt that in the wilderness, more precisely, in the entire "capital of chaos", the number of rivers is undoubtedly very small.

Although there are many rugged terrain in the "chaotic city", although rain is rare under normal circumstances, but every year when winter and spring meet, it rains heavily, but there are few lakes formed by rainwater accumulation, and no one knows why.

And the rivers, all the rivers in the "City of Chaos", are intertwined from the sea, and then breathe life into this vast land.

All the major races in the wilderness, including the aborigines, live in the vicinity of either such rivers or relatively abundant groundwater.

Judging from the map in his hand, this river is equivalent to an invisible cutting line, and a short distance beyond this river is the forbidden area.

Although Chopin was physically and mentally exhausted after all these days of travel, he was also quite excited at the thought that his guess could be verified.

But now that he's all here, there's no need to rush it, he still has to prepare well before he gets in.

Let his Imperial soldiers camp here to rest, but Chopin stretched his waist and walked straight to the river.

Chopin's face was stained with a lot of dust after days of running, and he washed it with two streams of cool river water in his hand, and the whole person suddenly felt much refreshed.

It wasn't until the shimmering waves of the river rerevealed his face, which was clearly of Germanic descent, that he stopped what he was doing.

Sitting on the blanket beside him, Chopin took out a red spherical object no bigger than a fist, if you look at it from a distance, it is basically no different from a red apple, but if you look closely, you will find that on this red ball, it is covered with lines like human blood vessels, and a stripe is like some extremely complex precision instrument, crisscrossing this ball the size of a fist.

This seemingly inconspicuous round ball is actually an item stripped from the body of the "white elephant" beast, and it can be regarded as the biggest gain of that bloody encounter.

According to the introduction of the system, this is the energy core of the "white elephant" beast, this thing has roughly two uses, one of which is naturally used to eat, according to the user's own physical fitness, the user will get different degrees of improvement.

The stronger his physical fitness, the worse the benefits of swallowing this energy core, but according to Chopin's opinion, no matter who it is, even if he only obtains one-tenth of the physical fitness of the "white elephant" beast after swallowing it, it is definitely a humanoid monster.

Second, it can be converted into 3,000 points of energy absorbed by the system, and this thing is equivalent to an energy absorption device, even if the energy in it is absorbed, it can naturally absorb about 500 points of mysterious energy from the air every month thereafter.

Before this, Chopin had never obtained anything from any beast that could be exchanged for energy points, but now it seems that it is not that he cannot obtain it from these beasts, but that the level of those beasts he encountered before is too low, and there is no object like an energy core in his body.

It's just that they have been wandering in the wilderness for so long, and they have only happened to encounter a "five-patterned" fierce beast, and they want to meet it next time, but they don't know when it will be.

For the information given by the system, Chopin also inevitably fell into a deep thought, if he had just come to this world, he would definitely choose to devour the energy core, after all, all external forces are illusory, and only his own strength is fundamental.

However, in this situation, after struggling for a while, Chopin still decisively chose to exchange this energy core for 3,000 points of energy.

After all, the strength of the individual has its inevitable limitations, and now that he is about to lead his men into that forbidden area, he naturally needs a lot of energy points to prepare well.

And it was as strong as that "white-veined" fierce beast, not that it also fell under the roar of countless lead bullets, even though devouring that energy core could improve the physical fitness of an individual, how strong could it be.

Besides, although his current strength is not as good as those "Shengyao" warriors, but with the blessing of God, he is also not weak, plus he has the golden paper in his hand that can be called "absolute defense", even if he really encounters any unexpected situation, he can definitely resist it.

When he was in "White Rock City", Chopin's Old Guards killed Raven, Leo, and Merck, three "Shengyao" warriors, allowing Chopin to directly gain 3,200 points of energy.

After going deep into the wilderness, although Chopin seemed to be unconcerned about Kurosawa who was secretly tracking, he had secretly arranged countless means to wait for the other party to take the bait.

Look at what kind of joke, that's at least 1000 points of mysterious energy, how could Chopin let it go.

Although the "brothers" that the other party brought when they appeared in the end were somewhat unexpected by him, the 1,200 points of energy finally fell into his hands.

Coupled with the 3,000 points of energy obtained by the system absorbing that energy core this time, the mysterious energy that Chopin had at hand at this time had reached an astonishing 7,400 points!

And then, it's time to splurge.

Since the Central Domain is known as the "Forbidden Zone", there will naturally be no less danger inside, and if you break into it with less than three hundred imperial soldiers under your command, it will basically be a suicide.

Opening the recruitment page, Chopin's gaze began to scan back and forth in it, but finally fell on the Guards Grenadier and the Guards Polish Lancers.

"Guards Grenadiers: These elite heavy cavalry are brave in battle, and their swords will bestow death on their enemies."

"The Guards Grenadier rode tall and mighty horses, and although they were a little slower than the other cavalry units, it was certain that they would inflict heavy damage on the enemy if they charged. Once in hand-to-hand combat, these strong grenadiers are able to continue fighting. Although they are inferior in the face of the infantry that forms the formation, or are unable to defend themselves against the elite and well-trained infantry. But even so, in battle, they still showed their determination to see death as if they were home. ”

"Number of recruits: 120."

"Recruitment Price: 1000 gold/energy."

Because of their tall stature, the Guards Grenadier was also known as the "High Heel" and the "Gods" for their outstanding military exploits, and was one of the oldest units in the Napoleonic Cavalry Regiment.

In 1795 the infantry cavalry of the 21st Chasseur Regiment and the 3rd Dragoon Regiment were stationed near Paris, where they remained loyal to the National Assembly during the royal rebellion. After the suppression of the royal rebellion, General Bonaparte came to the fore and became commander of the garrison of Paris. A force was formed to protect his personal safety, and 100 loyal soldiers from the 3rd Dragoon Regiment formed the cavalry force.

In 1796 these guards were formally organized, and this was the prototype of the Guards Grenadier Regiment, which in 1800 was responsible for the guard of the First Consul. These grenadiers have always been known for their haughty and austere demeanor. They are battle-hardened veterans and tall and handsome knights.

In the Battle of Austerlitz in 1805, the Guards Grenadier Cavalry cooperated with a large group of Guards Chasers and routed the Russian hussars and cuirassiers, expelled the enemy's artillery battery and entangled the Russian prince and his guards, and created a fighter for Bessière and Droeette to cooperate in defeating the Russian guards and capturing Lapnin. In this battle, the Guards Chasseurs were harassed by firepower, and the grenadiers charged bravely, which was a perfect match for the strength of the firepower faction and the hand-to-hand combat faction.

"Guards Polish Cavalry: The lightning-fast charge of the Guards Polish Cavalry is terrifying.

These excellent riders have undergone rigorous training, and they can deter the enemy when they charge into battle with spears in hand, and their planes can quickly rush to the center of the battle. ”

"These warriors have unrivaled morale, but prolonged close combat puts them at a disadvantage, and the elite cavalry attacking the train phalanx will waste their charge and gun skills."

"Number of recruits: 120."

"Recruitment Price: 1000 gold/energy."

As early as the first half of the XVI century, Polish hussars were already wearing armor, white wings, and armed with javelins, and they occupied an important place in the Polish army. It has defeated the Swedish cavalry and the Russian Cossack cavalry, and is known in the history of the world's cavalry for its low casualty rate.

And the bravery of the Polish lancers of the Guards was even more impeccable!

During the Polish campaign in 1807, Napoleon, the great emperor of France, was attracted by the fighting power of the Polish lancers, and after entering Warsaw, he recruited 4 squadrons of Polish volunteers into the Guards Cavalry, and later formed the Imperial Guards Polish Hussar Regiment.

In 1809, the Wagnum Spears entered Spain, armed with their nation's characteristic weapon, the spear, which was able to quickly annihilate the enemy.

At the Battle of Waterloo, Nye launched a massive cavalry charge into the center of the British line, during which the squadron fought bravely.

It is recorded that the Poles were part of the few French cavalry in full gear.

They were usually armed with sabers, carbines, bayonets, spears, one or two pistols.

The Guards Polish cavalry was equipped to some extent against the infantry phalanx, and the spears used by the French lancers were 2.7 meters long, longer than any rifle with a bayonet, so that the lancers could attack the infantry in the phalanx first without being hit by bullets.

However, the disadvantages of this are equally significant: the lancers are not suitable for reconnaissance and vigilance tasks on complex terrain such as woods, and lose some of the functions that light cavalry should have. Moreover, the lancers needed more training.

The Guards Grenadier and the Guards Polish Lancers, these two units were the true elite of the heavy cavalry, and the only two regiments of all Napoleon's cavalry units were never defeated by the enemy cavalry, and the others were more or less defeated.

In addition to these two troops, Chopin also had his eye on one unit, but it was not very suitable to summon at the moment, and that was - 6-pounder cavalry cannon! (Six-horse horse)

Artillery is a weapon with pros and cons, it can be immensely powerful when used properly, but not if you don't know how to use it. One of the main drawbacks of artillery is that the movement speed is too slow, whether in the big map or in the war, a very big impact, the most critical place in the use of artillery is not the number of pounds, power, accuracy, but its mobility.

In the whole battle, compared with the 6-pounder cavalry gun, the 6-pounder infantry gun is indeed relatively rare, and the main reason is that with the same power, the mobility of the 6-pounder cavalry gun is much better, the accuracy is also very high, it is very convenient, and it is very suitable for cooperation with other arms.

And against long-range targets, the 6-pounder gun is more accurate than the 12-pounder, but the range is relatively close, relatively speaking, each has its own advantages.

However, at close range, 12 pounds is much more powerful than 6 pounds, and the difference in coverage and lethality of shotguns is very large.

Although the range was a bit close, the terrain was in the way of the 12-pounder gun and the effective range of the 12-pounder gun did little damage unless it was on the plains. Only by waiting for the enemy to enter an unobstructed area can it be effectively killed, so that another part of the range is wasted. The 6-pounder gun had a fast rate of fire and high accuracy, and it was completely capable of causing mass destruction.

No one can say what kind of environment is in the middle of the region, and I don't know what kind of changes will happen when the time comes, if there is any unexpected situation, or pursuit, or escape, or change positions, the mobility of cavalry artillery is undoubtedly much better than those infantry guns.

Of course, these arms alone were far from enough to reassure Chopin, no matter how much they were about to enter the area, which the forces of the "City of Chaos" had not dared to explore for hundreds of years, and Chopin could not be too careful.

Therefore, after a rough calculation of the energy he could still use at hand, the idea of summoning five lines of infantry could not help but come to Chopin's mind.

No matter at any time and anywhere, a powerful enough fire vent is enough to crush everything.

And under the volley of nearly a thousand muskets, no matter what happens in that so-called "forbidden zone", there should be no need to be afraid.
