Chapter 246: The Power of Machine Gun Cannons

In the camp of the Song army, Xiao Qiuyu pointed to the sand table and said, "According to my personal reconnaissance, Wanyan Zonghan's main force is stationed on the plain more than 70 miles away in the north, and the number of people is roughly judged to be more than 200,000.

Xiao Qiuyu, who has a speeding vehicle like an electric Cayenne, is the top scout, and his every move of the enemy can't escape his eyes...... If it is compared to a real-time strategy game, Xiao Qiuyu is equivalent to opening the whole map!

With so many advantages superimposed, Xiao Qiuyu really didn't think that this station would lose.

Estes frowned at the Observer Sand Table, and she couldn't help but ask, "It's really strange, why did those golden people choose to fight us on the plains? Since it is a home battle, we should choose a place with a dangerous terrain, first, to facilitate defense, and second, if we win, it will be more difficult for our army to escape......

"You don't understand...... Xiao Qiuyu shook his head and said, "Actually, the Jin people and the nomadic alien race in the north of your country are the same (sex xìng) nature (after all, "Chop. The archetype of the empire in the world of Crimson Pupil is the Celestial Empire), these nomads grew up on horseback, so they were able to ride good (shoot shè), and they raised countless horses...... Although they lacked heavy cavalry because of the backwardness of the metallurgical industry, their light cavalry was extremely numerous."

"I see, did you deliberately choose to fight in favorable terrain?" Estes was good at marching, and naturally knew that cavalry could only exert the power of charging in plain terrain.

Thinking of this, the corners of Estes' mouth curled slightly, and she said proudly, "But their (qingqíng) report is insufficient, and they don't know that we have a large number of firearms...... Mortars aside, heavy machine guns and other weapons are like harvesters on the plain battlefield, and this time they will definitely be wiped out!"

"My plan is to take the initiative to go up now, crush them in one wave, and then take advantage of the situation to occupy the capital of the enemy country!"

"Don't hurry," Estes stopped Xiao Qiuyu, and she said, "We have been marching too long into the enemy's territory, and the soldiers are already tired, while the enemy is waiting for us to collide...... So I think I'll set up camp here right away, let the soldiers rest for two days, and then take the initiative!"

After all, he is a battle-hardened commander, and Estes's military experience is far from being comparable to that of a rookie like Xiao Qiuyu.

According to Estes's order, the Song army began to set up camp here, bury pots and cook food, and seriously recuperate and recover physical strength...... As a result, in the afternoon of the next day, when Xiao Qiuyu drove the "electric Cayenne" to reconnoitre, he found that the enemy was taking the initiative to rush over.

"We haven't attacked in a long time, so they couldn't help it and took the initiative to call, didn't they?" Xiao Qiuyu pondered.

Estes said excitedly, "That's great, since it's a defensive operation, then we can better place each firepower point in advance, and then defeat the enemy in one battle!"

……

In the early morning of the next day, more than 200,000 Jin troops had already been killed, and opposite them were 50,000 Song troops in a neat formation.

"Big brother, I am willing to command 30,000 iron cavalry to break through the enemy's military formation, and then the infantry will press on and crush the opponent in one go!"

This time, the troops brought by Xiao Qiuyu did not have cavalry at all, and in the face of 50,000 pure infantry, relying on cavalry was enough to easily crush them......

Although the so-called "iron cavalry" of the Jin Kingdom is only a group of light cavalry wearing leather armor, it is far inferior to the canned knights of the European Middle Ages...... However, the troops on the Song side's side did not have heavy plate armor, and they could not even wear leather armor, and relying on light cavalry was enough to easily tear their formation.

Tens of thousands of cavalry rushed together, the sound of horses' hooves roared like thunder, looking at the cavalry of the Jin Kingdom, which was used like a black cloud, most of the soldiers on the Song army's side showed a frightened expression.

Many of them were veterans of the Liao War, and every time the enemy's cavalry rushed into the infantry phalanx of the Song army, a rout and one-sided slaughter were bound to follow...... Faced with such a dense cavalry team, the morale of these soldiers immediately fell to the top.

In the extreme, there was even a rout, but Estes took the opportunity to make a quick decision and let the Overseer cut down a dozen deserters in a row, which stopped the spread of the rout.

"The quality of these soldiers is so poor!" Estes's face was very ugly, and she said, "The soldiers under my command have never been so inferior, and it is a shame to flee before the battle has even begun!"

"Zhao Song has always emphasized literature and suppressed martial arts, and they have long paid tribute to the enemy, and they have been defeated repeatedly on the battlefield, and the ** in the army is too serious, so the quality of the soldiers is very poor......

Xiao Qiuyu rubbed his forehead with a little headache, he sighed, and said to Estes, "You rush up to boost morale!"

"Understood!" Estes rode her steed and charged to the front of the army, holding her sword of ice high in the face of the galloping Jin cavalry.

"God of War, God of War, God of War!"

The soldiers in a neat formation shouted in unison.

In the previous skirmishes, Estes had taken the lead several times, and she had exploded into an unimaginable battle, slaughtering hundreds of enemies on her own. Therefore, her prestige in the army has exceeded imagination, and the soldiers even call her the god of war!

When Estes arrived at the front line, he immediately aroused the fighting spirit of the soldiers and reinvigorated the terrified troops.

When the iron cavalry of the Jin Kingdom rushed into the range of the firearms, Xiao Qiuyu shouted, "Machine gun battalion, fire!"

Hundreds of heavy machine guns lined up in rows erupted in unison, and the bullets formed a barrage-like covering blow like a rainstorm, and the cavalrymen who were originally rushing to kill immediately fell in unison like cutting wheat!

The power of this large-caliber heavy machine gun is beyond imagination, and a single bullet can easily break people into pieces.

Such an astonishing scene was beyond the imagination of the riders...... But they can't stop, the charging horses are fast, once the front row stops, the back row of the war horses crash over, and immediately someone will come back to the horse, and then be trampled into mud by the back row of war horses!

Wanyan Zongwang, who commanded 30,000 iron cavalry, was also broken in two by a single bullet, and without his wisdom, it would be even more difficult for these charging cavalry to stop.

Although the firepower of the heavy machine gun is strong, the barrel must also be cooled and dispersed after continuous strafing, so the speed of the barrage of fire gradually slows down.

(ps: Don't be deceived by the TV series, it is impossible for a machine gun to sweep (shoot shè) indefinitely...... There is a video of a real machine gun sweep (shooting shè), as the bullet goes crazy (shooting shè), the pitch-black metal barrel gradually turns red due to the high temperature of the bullet out of the chamber, just like a red-hot iron block in an iron furnace, and even a flame is gasped on it, and the last little bit softens. )
