Just when several elders and leaders of the Ape God Tribe, as well as a few young and middle-aged warriors, gathered together to eat and drink, and discuss something enthusiastically, they were unaware of the fact that they had been targeted by the black muzzle.

If a single shot of solid round bullets is like a bowling ball, the possibility of smashing is not small, then the shotgun is really like pouring a basin of water, as long as the general direction does not deviate, the huge number of projectiles can form a wave of coverage in that direction, the probability of a human-sized target not being hit at all, is similar to winning the lottery.

After reconfirming that the time of the pocket watch was correct, the team leader tucked the pocket watch back into the pocket on the inside of his clothes, took a deep breath, lit the fuse, and quickly retreated.

In the next moment, the fuse, which had been deliberately truncated, quickly burned out, and then, in the granular gunpowder, Mars got unprecedented great pleasure, great satisfaction, and thunder!

Next, the violently expanding gunpowder gas hit the butt.

Bullet stock - this is a strategy that Luo Ming came up with by chance after summarizing the gains and losses of the last major battle, which can increase the accuracy of the projectile and reduce the amount of air leakage, so that the projectile can obtain the highest kinetic energy possible.

In fact, there are similar methods on the earth, but Luo Ming really came up with it independently this time.

After the projectile, a relatively soft and large wooden plug is attached, which is the so-called butt.

The moment it was struck by the gunpowder gas, it immediately deformed and expanded, fitting perfectly into the chamber of the cannon, like a wine cork.

Originally, it was impossible for a shell to fit perfectly into the chamber, and this was especially true for a shotgun, so a large part of the explosive power of gunpowder was actually wasted.

In addition, there is room in the chamber to move freely, which also makes it difficult for the projectile to move forward straight.

Then it is not difficult to imagine what the power of gunpowder, which would have been wasted due to poor air tightness and leakage, is now almost all taken over by this butt, and the butt will transmit such a huge kinetic energy to the projectile.

Higher kinetic energy and faster muzzle velocity mean better range and accuracy!

In an instant, nearly a hundred projectiles flew through the forest like a heavy rain, crossing a distance of 100 meters, towards the elders.

The lead raindrops hit the ground of human flesh, splashing red blood flowers, which is also a unique scenery.

It's just that no matter who you are, you won't have the leisure to enjoy this scene.

The rumbling sound of artillery echoed, and the smoke of gunpowder filled the air, which made the mountain barbarians fall into confusion and fear, and at the same time, it also exposed the orientation of their own artillery position.

"Hurry up and reload, do one more shot!"

The team leader roared and waved his arms, and there were three points of urging in his tone, but there was not much apprehension and panic.

And his men smiled strangely, pushing the guns back into their original positions due to recoil, cleaning their chambers, reloading their ammunition, and working harder and more quickly—as if they were enjoying the danger.

After all, this team was all elites honed on the previous battlefield, and they even faced the bishop's great sword master without retreating. Maybe they can't do it in terms of combat effectiveness, but their courage is definitely ten times better than that of ordinary soldiers!

Once faced with a great sword master and fought hundreds of monsters, now facing this mountain tribe that has not entered a state of combat readiness at all, a sense of superiority and pride will naturally spring up.

After the initial chaos, the mountain barbarians finally regained a little order, although many people were still at a loss as if they were headless flies, but there were also dozens of people who had come to their senses, sensed the source of the sound of the cannon and the source of the gunsmoke, and rushed towards this side with a roar.

That delay was enough, though—the second round of shotguns had been reloaded, and another deadly rain of bullets was fired.

Nearly a quarter of the mountain barbarians who rushed to this side were directly knocked to the ground by this round of shotguns, and the rest of the people were stunned in place, some hid directly behind trees, and some lay on the ground, their actions became much more cautious, and those ordinary mountain barbarians who were originally going to join this team of chasing people hesitated a little.

"Withdraw!

As he spoke, the squad leader lit another fuse, and then took the opportunity to lead the entire squad to drag the gun carriage back.

Next, the mountain barbarians rushed to the place where it was still an artillery position half a minute ago, and although the men and artillery had been withdrawn, the ruts, footprints, and the smell of gunpowder smoke were still here.

"This is it!"

"What do you see on this earth?"

"This is a wheel print, why is it so deep?" Even the tribes in the mountains actually use some primitive wheels or even wheelbarrows, and they can see that this thing is unusual.

Faced with this unknown situation, the mountain barbarians still hesitated for a moment, a little overwhelmed. In the first wave of shelling, it was their leaders who were wounded or killed...... Now that there is a lack of a leader, none of them knows whether to track them immediately or be vigilant and defend in place, and even if someone does, they don't have enough authority to make others obey his orders.

As a result, the last trap left by the team leader was successfully activated.

Fifteen meters away from the side of this artillery position, the muzzle of a half-buried tiger squat cannon was facing this side, and the fuse burned out, and then another roar sounded.

This time, the Tiger Squat Cannon did not shoot out the standard shotgun lead pellet.

Originally, Luo Ming chose to use lead shot to make shotguns, first of all, because it was soft and easy to process into balls.

In addition, the lead pellet has a good weight, the heavier the object, the slower the kinetic energy decay when flying - that is, the range is increased on the basis of ensuring the power, and the lead projectile will deform the wound and expand the wound.

Even if you don't die, if you don't dig out the bullet immediately, you will basically get heavy metal poisoning, which is no less than a cruel move like "my spear is poisoned".

This time, the Tiger Squat Cannon didn't need to hit far, so the squad leader was very bad and stuffed a large handful of fingertip-sized gravel into it, probably two or three hundred.

Although it is only gravel, at this distance, it has the same power to hurt!

The mountain barbarians who stayed on the artillery position were like grass in the wind, and they were knocked to the ground by this hurricane of rubble.

Even those who were lucky enough to survive stood in place sluggishly, letting out a terrible scream, which made people tremble when they heard it.
