Chapter 150. Iron, Blood, Fire!! (viii)

Not long after the grenades ruthlessly engulfed the six stone elephants, with the rising black smoke and flying dust, from the rear of the Roman army, several black iron balls also ruthlessly smashed into the ranks of the infantry camp and archers, and with the huge roar, the originally neat and orderly phalanx inevitably became chaotic.

The rising flames whimpered, like frightened young beasts, their bodies trembling, and the flickering light of the fire scorched the entire battlefield back and forth, as if to crack the whole earth.

"Disperse! Spread out! ā€

Although Roman's position was still a certain distance from the place where the grenades exploded before, the huge roar and the huge waves that set off still mercilessly engulfed him.

After getting up from the ground in a bit of embarrassment, his head was still buzzing, and the sound of explosions from behind him penetrated his ears mercilessly.

And after experiencing the fact that the stone elephant was completely destroyed, in the face of this sudden attack from the rear, Roman was unprecedentedly calm.

The firearms used by the enemy are very powerful, but the damage dealt is area-based, and if the number of people is dispersed, the damage taken by your side will be greatly reduced, and each time you use it, there is a certain interval.

With those "judgment knights" who are fearless of life and death, they still have an advantage in military strength, as long as they grasp the opportunity, they may not be able to reverse the situation.

It's just that Roman is a little puzzled by how those ambush soldiers went around behind them, and how they approached silently, just in case, before the battle, he also deliberately arranged a lot of scouts on both sides of the military formation and even in the rear.

What Roman never imagined was that the scouts he had sent out had been wiped out in silence a quarter of an hour earlier.

Andrew walked cautiously in the grass, his sharp gaze swept around like an eagle's eye, although he obviously didn't find a trace of abnormality, but years of combat experience still made him smell a trace of unusual breath in the air.

And five zhang away from the other party, the hunter crawled in the grass, holding a sharp scimitar in his hand, allowing the insects and ants around him to climb up his body and continue to bite, but he was motionless, even his breathing was faint like an insect chirping at the moment, and he couldn't hear it at all, and the whole person was like a dead corpse.

Andrew pulled out the sword in his hand, looked around fiercely, and still didn't find anything, Fang Cai smiled bitterly and shook his head, it seems that he is really old, and he is starting to become a little suspicious.

But at this moment, with the whimpering wind, a little cold light suddenly burst out, and in the face of this sudden attack, Andrew couldn't help but be shocked.

Fortunately, years of experience finally came into play at this time, and at the last moment, Andrew almost didn't think about it, it was completely instinctive, and the long sword in his hand stabbed at the scimitar.

The two collided violently, but what made Andrew's eyes shrink was that from the other party's scimitar, a burst of white light suddenly appeared, the white light was far less dazzling than the brilliance of the scorching sun, but it was extremely hot, like erupting magma, and the hot heat was even transmitted through the air.

Almost at the moment of contact, the long sword in Andrew's hand broke into two, sensing the huge difference in strength between them, he desperately wanted to let out a roar, but it was too late, the long sword surging with bursts of white light had already penetrated his throat, and then blood fell to the ground dripping dripping.

Andrew's mouth still moved twice, but there was no sound, and his body staggered forward a few steps, and then staggered down.

The hunter glanced indifferently at the fallen corpse, then moved on to his next target.

Soon after, all the bright and dark spots in the outer area were ruthlessly uprooted, leaving only a faint smell of blood, rippling in the air.

And when everything was taken care of, the four cannons that had been dragged by the horses began to show their annihilating majesty.

And when the successive cannons slowly stopped, a group of cuirassiers, a group of town militia, a group of spearmen, and more than fifty fur smugglers also launched a ferocious offensive with the imperial warriors in the center of the battlefield......

*********

Roman took a deep breath, knowing that he didn't have much choice at this time, either continue to choose to attack the city or retreat immediately, but at this time, there was not much possibility of capturing the city, so there was only one last option left......

"Give the order to go down, all retreat, don't continue to entangle, all cavalry...... Leave a broken circuit. ā€

After struggling, Roman still made an extremely difficult decision.

In the face of such an order, the remaining more than 300 cavalry naturally knew what this meant, but in this case, no one still chose to retreat.

With a roar like a tidal wave, more than three hundred cavalry figures also rushed out brazenly.

The horse's hooves stepped on the ground, and the roar of thunder was also fierce.

And then, in the sound of the Jin Ge firefight, the black pressure of the lead bullet mixed with the rising gunpowder smoke, just like that, drowned over-

After half a ring, on the solemn battlefield, there was no cavalry under Roman's command, only the intermittent neighing of the war horses, which seemed to still tell the tragedy and sadness of this battle.

……

Nearly 1,000 heavily armored infantry lined up in a neat phalanx and rushed forward like sharp knives.

On the front line were still the thirty "Knights of Judgment" holding huge shields, and the heavy shields were connected together, stretching out like a fortress made of steel.

Only this time, the blackened flintlock muskets in the hands of the town militia were not aimed at them at all, but fired straight at the hoplites and archers in the rear.

Although the first round of shooting did not cause much casualties due to the distance and viewing angle, Roman's face sank, and then he began to give orders quickly.

Immediately afterwards, half of the hoplites followed the thirty "Knights of Judgment" at the front, and unexpectedly launched an attack on Kit.

The distance between the two sides was not far apart, but with the speed of movement of these heavy infantry, I was afraid that when they rushed over, they would have already been wiped out by the wildly dancing buckshots.

But what happened next was beyond Kitt's expectations.
