Chapter 34: The Power of Gunpowder

The secret weapon in the hands of the people of Yoder Town was none other than a bag of explosives several sizes smaller.

As early as when they decided to stop the convoy, Ron suggested that explosives packs could be used. In order to reduce the weight and make it easier for them to throw it, the amount of gunpowder in the explosives bag was much smaller, but this did not affect the power of the explosives bag, for this operation, they prepared a full forty small explosives bags, which were distributed to the soldiers with larger arm strength in the team before the operation, on this plain, there are no trenches and bunkers, and the energy of gunpowder explosion will be really greeted on the enemy's body.

In addition to the soldiers who stood in the back row of the line, who were responsible for throwing explosive packs, in the front row of the line, nearly a hundred soldiers simultaneously raised the crossbow machine that had been loaded with crossbow arrows, and in the light of the torches, they did not need to aim very accurately at all, all the enemies stood together, in this case, the advantage of crossbow arrows over bows and arrows was reflected.

"Boom!"

As if stabbing a hornet's nest, the sound of nearly a hundred crossbow machines firing together instantly broke the silence of the night, and the figure in the darkness not far away fell down like a large piece of wheat.

Hit by a crossbow arrow with a very fast rate of fire, even if it doesn't hit the vital part, it is quite a terrible penetrating injury, and when fighting at close range, the crossbow arrow is the most terrible big killing weapon!

When the first soldier was killed by Ron, all the Belu soldiers, including Randall, did not react, they subconsciously thought that the opposite side was a grumpy commander, but when the crossbow arrows were sprayed, they understood the truth, the team in front of them wearing Belu military uniforms was not a friendly army at all, but a Noah who came with revenge and anger.

"Attack all! Crossbow arrows return fire!Kill these Noahs!"

Randall drew his sword, his heart seemed to be dripping blood, this round of crossbow arrows from Noah's army fired, at least forty or fifty of his soldiers fell, he had no time to think about the origin of these Noah's soldiers, if he couldn't even do the transportation task, he would not be able to raise his head at all in the military.

However, Randall seems to have overlooked one thing, including him, every Beru soldier has the idea of fighting back in their heads, but they are not ready, some soldiers are even loading crossbow arrows into the crossbow machine, it is dark at night, and there are even cases where they are scratched by arrows when loading crossbow arrows.

A volley of crossbow bolts not only killed the Belu soldiers, but more importantly, gave the bombardiers enough time to prepare for the ignition packs.

"Whew!"

Pieces of black shadows dragged the red tail flame and flew over Ron's head, and the lead of the explosive bag even took Ron a whole day's work, and when it came to the real battlefield, it was not enough to use strips of cloth alone, this kind of thin hemp rope soaked in oil and water was the best material Ron could find now.

"What's that?"

A Belu soldier who was loading crossbow arrows was suddenly smashed by a bag of explosives falling from the sky, and immediately couldn't help but curse, this thing was thrown from the Yode people on the opposite side, but it didn't seem to be lethal, and it didn't even have the power of a stone thrown over.

Dozens of explosives caused a commotion among the Beru army, but they soon realized that this thing was not lethal, and they didn't even pay attention to the tongue of fire on the explosive bag that was about to burn to the end. In such weather, in such a humid land, there is no possibility of launching a fire attack at all.

"Huh?"

Meria thought that the explosives pack had no effect, and screamed.

"Get down!"

Ron's roar suddenly rang out, and Meria threw herself into the mud and water, ignoring the muddy water on the ground.

Thundered......

At that moment, a dazzling burst of fire burst out, stinging Meria's eyes.

He knew very well the power of these gunpowders, and if he was ignorant against them, he would definitely be the one who would be ugly in the end. Whether you are copper-skinned and iron-skinned, or as strong as an ox, if you are blown by it, you will only be shattered.

Can the tenacity of a person's body be compared to the porcelain kiln houses in Yode Town? Even if a powerful knight with a fighting spirit has a physical quality far beyond ordinary people, but how many such knights there are in the entire continent, Meria does not know, the only thing he is sure of is that at least among the Belu soldiers in front of him, there is no such existence.

The power of one explosive bag may not be nothing, but these dozens of explosive bags exploded together, and even Saiana, who stayed behind in Yoder Town, even saw the flash of light in the dark night on the battlements.

The contents of the explosives bag were not only mixed black powder, but Ron even added pieces of broken iron, iron filings, wooden planks and other things to it, with the help of the explosion waves, even small pieces of iron were enough to become a sharp weapon for killing.

Meria clearly saw that in the light of the explosion, the Belu soldiers who were at the center of the explosion even broke away from their torsos in the explosion, and in the position of the Belu army, it instantly turned into a hell of death.

A mess of bits and pieces of limbs flew over, arms, thighs, internal organs, pieces of flesh, and even eyeballs that had been blown up to them, rolling bloody on the ground. Exploding longbows, flying arrows, and even the crossbows carried by the Belu were blown apart, and broken parts flew everywhere.

The explosion of the explosive pack lasted for a short time, and a thick black smoke rose from the fire in the dark night, and the pungent smoke spread over the Great Plains, but the evening breeze on the Great Plains soon slowly blew away the thick smoke, Meria wiped the muddy water from her mouth, and looked at the original position of the Beru, Meria suddenly opened her mouth in shock.

The last time I saw the power of gunpowder, it was only the explosion of the porcelain kiln and Ron's explosion experiment, and the cognition of this magical black powder, except Ron, no one else had a clear understanding.

On the originally flat plain, there were many irregular large pits, and the ranks of the Beru people were instantly thinned out a lot, and with the help of the firelight, they could see the Yods lying on the ground groaning and twitching, and the heart-rending screams continued to sound.

"Gross!"

Beside Meria, a militiaman from Yode couldn't help but vomit on the spot, and Meria could clearly see that there was even a broken intestine stuck to the militiaman's face from an unknown source.
