Chapter 145: Meteor Shower (5/10)
Chi Nan ignored the puppeteer who didn't seem to deal with him much, and Dara didn't continue to trouble Chi Nan. He walked into a big carriage and followed the team while doing his own experiments.
Even the puppets have special carriages to transport them. Dara had a team of hundreds of attendants with him, and the main purpose of these people was not to protect Darra, but to help him. This kind of pomp and circumstance is even bigger than the nobleman of Count Longen, no wonder they are all called mages and masters.
As a mage, isn't he too low-key? These aristocrats always think of themselves as nobles, and often ignore the fact that they are mages.
In fact, Chi Nan himself often overlooked this, because only he knew that he was not a mage at all. All you can do is control the plants, that's all.
"These pack horses are really good. Watching the pack horse follow the team to pull the pneumatic cannon, Chi Nan was a little red-eyed.
As a pneumatic cannon manufacturer, he had no way to let the army go out to fight because of the problem of mobility. However, Count Dragongen was already able to do this for the first time.
In the team, there are also large trucks, which are specially transformed. The wagon was covered with a layer of earth, which was used to help the army in its operations, and it was possible to insert pea cannons into it for restoration. In the future, maybe the pneumatic cannon will also use this method to recover, and it seems that there is still some fertilizer in the soil.
For the mobility of his army, Count Longen really took great pains. There is no way, if it is inserted in the ground to recover, it will be a waste of time. They don't spend their time resting.
It's a pity that there are too few people in Hongshaling, and it is impossible to do such a thing.
Move all the way, because there are many people, so the speed of action is also slow. After two full days, the group finally arrived at their destination. In the distance, there is a large wooded field. The black pressure in the woods is full of wild beastmen.
"See, those orcs have been scared by us lately, but they also know that they can use trees to fend off pea cannon attacks, so they are hiding in the woods. In normal times, our soldiers would not dare to deal with them at all, but now it is different. "At this moment, the berserkers also saw these soldiers.
It was just pointed at the pea cannon of the soldiers, and none of them dared to rush out. It's true that the berserkers are berserk, and it's true that they are not afraid of death, but they will never send them to death for no reason, especially if they don't have a sense of death.
They are also wise, and they want to wait for the pea cannon to finish shooting before they rush out. Or the human soldiers rushing in, in the woods, that's the world of them beastmen.
Only this time, it's obviously different from what they thought. The pneumatic cannons were lined up in rows, and on the way, the soldiers of Chinan had taught these soldiers how to aim, how to use and maintain the pneumatic cannons.
The speed was very fast, and after a few minutes, the pneumatic guns were placed on the position, forming a total of three different artillery arrays.
"Why are you calling me out, don't you know the critical moment I'm studying. Well, what's the matter, I'm going to start, I'll see what this hillbilly's weapon can do. ”
Kodala sat in his carriage and didn't get down, just looked ahead with disdain.
Chi Nan also ignored it, everything in the battle here was commanded by Count Longen. Shaking his head helplessly, Count Longen shouted, "Everyone get ready for me, fire." ”
As the order was given, a series of muffled noises rang out all around, and the sound was shaken up. Quite a few soldiers covered their ears, their faces full of pain. They themselves didn't expect that so many pneumatic cannons would be used at the same time, and there would be such a big movement. Even the ground was covered with dust, and many soldiers immediately coughed.
But the next moment, everyone's eyes widened and they looked ahead with incredulous faces.
Countless shells flew into the air, but the cannonballs were not as fast as bullets, and because of their large size, they could be seen more clearly. The cannonballs cut through graceful arcs and then fell from the sky like a large meteor shower.
And those beastmen in the distance were completely unlucky. A hundred huge cannonballs fell from the sky at one time and smashed into the woods. This is really a broken tree, a broken stone. Coupled with the wooden shells that flew out of countless shells, a large barrage was formed. The beastmen, which were already very dense, were even more wounded by dead and wounded.
The furious beastmen, who had wanted to use the woods to block the enemy's attacks, were completely dumbfounded. They never imagined that humans would have such a weapon that would be able to strike them from such a distance.
They had just discovered the traces of the human army, and the other party was already able to attack them at an ultra-long range. With so many pneumatic cannons attacking at the same time, it doesn't need to be too precise at all, as long as it doesn't deviate too much.
The beastmen on the opposite side were in a mess all of a sudden, and the big tree that originally resisted the pea cannon actually became an obstacle to the escape of the beastmen. The already chaotic team is even more chaotic. The wild orcs, who were blinded all at once, ran around frantically. Some don't know why, don't know what's going on, and more just want to escape.
Faced with such a scene all of a sudden, even Count Longgen was dumbfounded, this is too terrifying.
Count Dragongen's mouth grew and it took him five minutes to recover. Seeing the soldiers stop, and seeing that many of the berserkers had fled the woods, Count Dragongen's face turned red.
"You shit, how do you usually train you, who told you to stop. ”
The soldiers are very aggrieved, obviously you yourself did not have an order, do we not listen to the order and take the initiative to attack. But the soldiers themselves were ashamed, and to be honest, they themselves were frightened just now.
In the face of such an attack like a meteor shower falling from the sky, can you hide from it if it were yourself, the answer is that you can only resign yourself to fate. If you are directly hit, you are dead.
Under the command of Count Longen, the soldiers took aim again and opened fire. The next four shells fired out continuously, and it was as if a meteor shower had really fallen in the air. There may not be many berserkers who die directly, but this deterrent is too terrifying, and a large number of berserkers fall to the ground, and they can't survive.
There were also some berserkers who ran this way in a panic. But whether it is a mad beast man or an evil beast dog, in the face of the pea cannon platoon that has been prepared for a long time, they don't want to run over.
