Chapter 389: Scattered

The wooden stick in the orangutan cannot be said to be vulnerable to the shell, but if it can bounce the cannonball, it is too underestimating the artillery.

The copper cracked, the sawdust exploded, and the shell grazed the orangutan's shoulder.

More than a dozen layers of overlapping hides were invulnerable, and in front of the cannonballs, it was like a piece of toilet paper rubbed by someone's fingers, with obvious wrinkles, and then easily torn apart.

But I have to say that the wooden stick and such a heavy leather armor still have a little effect after all.

Even a car slows down when it hits a tree - the stick is as thick as a small tree.

As a result, the trajectory of the cannonball shifted slightly, and instead of directly shattering the orangutan's shoulder blades, it flew over it, tearing off some of the flesh and blood, and almost revealing the bones.

Although it looks very miserable, it is not a fatal injury. Even if it is not treated in time, it may be able to recover in a few weeks on its own.

It's just that this is the first shell.

The pain hit its heart, and it was about to retreat immediately, but it only took less than two steps before it ushered in the baptism of cannonballs.

Another cannonball flew past it with a bit of a miss, but the next two flew unbiasedly, pouring devastating damage on the beast.

Its left leg starts at three-quarters of the way down the calf and disappears straight down, as if a sand sculpture had been washed by the current.

Although it lost a leg, it subconsciously stretched out its left arm to support its body, but the next moment, it completely lost its balance - the last shell hit its waist directly.

The iron ball passed directly through the left side of its waist and flew out from behind it.

And with this cannonball, in addition to flesh and blood, you can also vaguely see red and white hard objects.

The largest of them flew backwards, knocking down a mountain man.

That's the tiny half of an orangutan's hip bone...... With such an injury, even the cutting-edge medical technology on the earth will be difficult to save a person's life.

The orangutan let out a terrible roar and rolled on the ground like a cruel brush, sweeping blood all over the ground.

"Help me stop them, don't let them run!"

The situation was urgent, although Luo Ming's words were more polite, but the tone was serious, and what came from his mouth was an out-and-out military order.

It's just that at the moment when the orangutan was easily knocked down, the large dog known as the dog god would never dare to complain in the slightest.

This is the same as nuclear deterrence on the planet - the two atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki are not yet very powerful, so they cannot scare the major powers that really want to open the film.

Since a nuclear bomb can only destroy a few divisions, a country with hundreds of divisions will not consider it a mortal threat.

But after the Soviet Union tested the Tsarist nuclear bomb once, no matter which major country no longer mentioned the matter of all-out war - killing and wounding a radius of dozens of kilometers at every turn, and no number of divisions were enough to fill it.

The deterrence of any force is based on the premise that the other side knows the strength of this force. Just as the natives who have never seen a fire fired are never afraid of muskets.

Inugami and Lauder immediately rushed out and split into two ways to outflank each other's retreat.

The fact that his patronus was easily killed by a sudden attack caused Shanman to fall into chaos.

Immediately, several percent of the people joined the fugitive army, and more than a dozen of them even dropped their weapons directly, probably because they thought it was too cumbersome to flee for their lives, and some people just didn't lose their weapons, and they just took 50 steps and laughed at 100 steps.

There are people who stand in place or fall to their knees with weak legs and feet - Luo Ming likes this last kind of people, and they must be very reassuring as prisoners.

But this kind of person is actually the most unfortunate - kneeling still when most of his companions are in a swarm of swarms will definitely be rammed and trampled, and the slightest mistake will be trampled to death.

It's a pity, but it's just a matter of letting them die, and if anyone survives, let them be a good example.

Of course, there are also some mountain barbarians who refuse to admit the status quo, they are either stubborn, refuse to accept the reality, or they are so frightened that they have already dizzy, and they have run in the wrong direction to escape, in short, they rushed towards Luo Ming's military formation.

The soldiers licked their lips and were ready to use their spears to harvest the lives of their enemies - they had killed many monsters in the past six months, but most of them had never killed real people.

But no matter how much the spear formation has an advantage over this kind of stragglers, casualties are always inevitable in hand-to-hand combat, and Luo Ming's soldiers are certainly not treating them as flowers in a greenhouse, but unnecessary casualties are better to reduce.

"Shotgun!"

Luo Ming didn't have much mercy for these people - if they wanted to get their confused brains back to normal, they had to knock them to the ground first.

Those who resisted always had to die so many to show how merciful Luo Ming was in letting the other prisoners of war live, and how lucky those who chose to surrender were.

At the orders of Lomin, the artillerymen aimed the last of their guns at the onrushing enemy.

It is a Schönbrunn mountain cannon, which can hold several times the shotgun of the Tiger Squat Cannon, and the striking area is far wider than that of the Tiger Squat Cannon.

More crucially, this cannon was placed on the left side of the military formation, and it was aimed at the mountain barbarians who rushed over in a daze at an oblique angle.

In the next moment, thunder rang out, and nearly a hundred lead pellets broke through the air, exploding a cloud of blood mist in the crowd.

Although it is also a long-range weapon, the deterrent power of a bow and arrow and lead pellet is completely different - an arrow shot into the human body will block the wound, and if it is not completely penetrated or pulled out, it may not bleed much, but the wound caused by the lead pellet, at least the size of a finger, will definitely be bloody.

Moreover, the thunderous noise was like a slap in the face, which could calm the minds of those who were not dead.

Just now, it was the same loud bang that knocked down the huge orangutan.

Even their "gods" could not resist this power, and what mortal would be arrogant to resist?

As a result, a comical picture appeared - Luo Ming decided to have the opportunity to find someone to draw this scene, put it in the Invalides, and open it to the public in the future.

The single-digit mountain barbarians were still advancing, and then crashed into the spear array, screaming and roaring...... Soon it hung motionless in the forest of spears like rag pockets.

The rest of the people either fell to their knees and begged for mercy, or they fled.
