The name of a man, the shadow of a tree.

The names of some extraordinary beings have magical powers in their own right, and even the thought that strikes through their minds can bring calamity and curse.

Of course, that is far beyond the reach of mortals.

But Luo Ming's name, at least in the vicinity of Schönbrunn, in the half of the county of Van Shey, seems to have magical powers.

Not to mention his name, even the sound of his cannon, such as this cannon, was enough to make every Beran who heard it tremble.

It may be difficult for ordinary people to understand, but if you think about it, it doesn't seem so strange.

The Belan Federation is the land of horses with vast grasslands, and the people of Beran have long since gotten rid of the backward and barbaric life, formed a feudal state system, and have their own system of religion, culture, technology and even education - for example, the saber has basically been standardized, and a number of masters have jointly compiled swordsmanship textbooks, which can be learned in many parts of the country.

With this strength, they far outperformed other steppe nomads, and even repelled the tribal alliances of centaurs and orcs several times, and they were proud of it.

And Beran's bow-making skills have recently been claimed to be comparable to those of elves, and although it is inevitably exaggerated, it does have brilliant results.

The torsion material of the Benlei car is essentially the culmination of hundreds of years of bowstring technology, and then the product of new products from it.

The range is better than that of a heavy trebuchet, and at the same time it is almost ten times lighter than a heavy trebuchet, and the time required for loading and unloading is also several times worse, which can be said to be an epoch-making invention!

All the way to the Duchy of Lothar to the county of Vanshey, the Thunder Carts were only used twice to solve the two Fortresses that stood in the way, and both times the results were brilliant results, and the towering cities that used to be able to scratch people's ears and cheeks were almost crushed in front of the Thunder Cart.

As a result, when he hit the Iron Fire City, his head was broken and bleeding, and most of the Thunder Racing Vehicles were damaged.

As for the proud bow horses of the Berans, if the bow can barely maintain the strength of a battle before the arquebus, the artillery is completely beyond the limit of what the bow and arrow can handle, and if the bow and arrow are fired at each other, the number of lives is not enough.

As for the horses, in the face of a fortified city or a spear phalanx, it can be said that it is very sad, and it can't exert much combat effectiveness at all.

If Lomin only had fortified cities and a phalanx of spears, the cavalry could at least take advantage of their mobility to make roundabout flank attacks, or stare at the defenders from afar until they were exhausted.

This time, however, arquebuses and artillery offset this advantage: cavalry was much larger than infantry, making it easier to hit, and almost the entire battlefield could be covered by artillery fire, so casualties continued to be suffered wherever they went.

Moreover, when the Vansheshire coalition army was disbanded, Luo Ming also used infantry to shake off the pursuit of cavalry, which made them even more disgraced.

In addition, the armor of the Berans is also much stronger than that of ordinary nomads, some of their craftsmen can make parts of plate armor, and a large number of craftsmen are able to create good quality scale armor, armor and chain mail, far stronger than the poor ghost nomads who can be the treasure of an entire large tribe with a few pairs of armor.

But in the face of bullets, the armor born to resist ordinary cold weapons is basically pierced by one shot. And Luo Ming is frantically using a lot of heavy arquebuses, and if he wants to block it, Luo Ming personally recommends using four times thicker armor anyway - even so, if it is too close, it can still be pierced.

Luo Ming has caused so many psychological shadows to the people of Belan that I am afraid that I could write an entire memoir if I listed them one by one.

In short, three cannon shots were heard, and in fact it seemed that the shells had not even hit a single person, and there were already Berans panicking, shouting "Luo Ming is coming" and something like that, trying to escape.

And the soldiers in the circle all had a feeling of the aftermath - although they had heard that Viscount Meiquan was very capable of fighting, they did not expect that he would be able to fight to the point where the enemy was terrified.

With such a big man who is too fierce to come to his aid, he can be considered saved!

The morale that was about to bottom out suddenly bottomed out, and even while a few insiders told Luo Ming's deeds, the morale gradually became high.

To tell the truth, Williser was also taken aback, he had an urge to retreat at that time, but he was also a military leader who had experienced more than a dozen battles, so he restrained this weak thought, and spent five seconds thinking about what to do at this critical moment.

He looked from afar, and he could vaguely see the crowd of people and a few horses in the direction where the cannon was fired...... It was too far away to see how many people there were, but he was reluctant to take the risk of gambling.

"Let's retreat two hundred meters first!" he said, and immediately began to arrange the retreat.

Retreat also requires skill, if everyone only cares about running for themselves, then the scene will be chaotic, maybe more people will be trampled to death than killed by the enemy, and there are not many people who can really run away, and the efficiency is very low.

Retreat 200 meters, you can temporarily break away from contact with the infantry in the circle, and get a little farther away from the opponent's artillery, you can attack again, and you can retreat and flee directly, which is also a good strategy.

However, at this moment, a very neat line of spearmen suddenly appeared from behind a small knoll!

Armed with spears of four and a half meters, they were arranged in a tight and neat formation, trotting to the slogans of several officers, and rushed diagonally towards the retreating road of the cavalry.

Most of the cavalry hurriedly avoided it, and a few tried to get around their flanks and then crush the small phalanx from the flanks and backs.

Behind them, however, a second spearman rushed out, guarding the flanks of the first spear formation, poking the individual cavalrymen with bad intentions into a sieve, and then continued over the corpses and horses, cutting diagonally into the cavalrymen's array.

Super spear phalanx charge, this is one of the pinnacle tactics of infantry, although generally speaking, the momentum of the charge is difficult to last, but in the time it rushes, the impact lethality can almost be compared to the most elite heavy cavalry!

And cavalry is much more expensive than infantry, and the Berans naturally refuse to shake their edge head-on.

Of course, as long as you avoid this edge, the spear array will reveal its relatively vulnerable sides and rear...... But the people of Belan didn't even want to spend that time.

The appearance of this well-trained spear phalanx just proves that the Schönbrunn army has really killed them, what if too much time is consumed on them and they are caught up by Belan's main army!

They hurriedly bypassed the flanks of the two phalanx of spears, and then continued to rush forward, hoping to get away from the danger as soon as possible.

However, at this moment, the sound of more than a dozen muskets rang out!
