Chapter 406: The Fire Pit and the Oil Pot

"No!!!" Hearing the provocative words of the captain of his guard, the knights of the guard roared one after another, like wounded wolves, "The war is not stopped, the empire is eternal!!The soul is immortal, the Teutonic is eternal!!Even if there is only one person left, the empire is still an empire!!The Teutonic is still a Teutonic man!!"

"That's right, wolf cubs!!!This is the Empire!! this is the Teutonic Knights!!!" Yarman roared loudly, and at the same time raised the tip of the steel super-long cavalry spear in his right hand and pointed it straight at the sky, "Maybe the empire is gone, maybe the people of the immortal king are only us people, maybe the Teutonic Knights are only eighty-one Teutonic knights, but what's the problem? Fuck off!!"

"Hey-ha!hey-ha!!hey-ha!!" Hearing the last foul words of the captain of his guard, the knights of the guard roared like the warriors of the ancient Teutonic tribe in a long time before the Teutonic Empire, like wolves before the hunt.

"His Majesty has awakened us from a long and near-eternal slumber and bestowed upon us the glory of being a member of the King's Guard, both as a generous and as much as a great hope placed on us. Yarman glanced at his fellow knights who were mentally active and fierce like wolves, and nodded with satisfaction, "Then you say, can we live up to His Majesty's expectations of us?!"

"Can't !!" held the steel extra-long cavalry spears in their hands in unison, and pointed the tips of the spears into the sky, and the roar of the knights of the guards shook the birds in the surrounding trees one after another.

"So today, let's have a feast in Valhalla, or in Hell—" Yarman howled angrily as he turned the head of the undead warhorse under his crotch and walked to the sharp corner at the front of the cone, "Brothers, remember when His Majesty asked us what our last words were before leading us into Gensokyo?!"

"There are no regrets in this life, the Imperial People! In the next life, I will still be a Teutonic soul!"

"Then go ahead, arrive at the predetermined place of charge before receiving the next order from His Majesty, and be ready to charge the enemy!" Yarman pinched the horse's belly, and the spurs inlaid in the plate steel boots made the stimulated undead horse leap to his feet, and his front hooves kicked in the air, "Teutonic knight!"

"Forward!forward!!forward!!"

While von Ronde and Yarman were speaking to the Teutonic Tomahawk Rangers and the Guards Knights, respectively, to boost their morale, the battle situation was constantly changing on the frontal battlefield.

After setting up a position and sending all the bows and arrows and some Japanese samurai armed with bows, the Boghall pikemen and Acropolis soldiers who were waiting in the first line of defense with shield walls and turtle-shaped formations were about to face almost all of the enemy's long-range fire - this is not counting the iron cannon Ashigaru who was carrying the position and preparing to shoot under the cover of the position after a suitable distance, these Ashigaru armed with iron cannons really opened fire and walked away **** If you are attacking the Boghall pikemen or Acropolis legionnaires who are densely packed together to defend against the rain of arrows, it is difficult to say whether the fan shields, large tower shields, and heavy chain mail with plate armor accessories or half-body plate armor can completely withstand this kind of damage.

"Lying in a big groove, the hand cannon is lagging behind, if it is directly hit, the heavy chain mail is not enough to see" Through the gap between the fan-shaped shield and the fan-shaped shield, Zhu Henghong nervously looked at the iron cannon that had successively placed the position only a few dozen meters away from the first line of defense, and the left hand holding the fan-shaped shield became tighter and tighter, "My boss, when can you ravage them with firepower, instead of letting their firepower start to ravage us"

This time, Zhu Henghong's complaint was just muttering in his soul fire, and it was not passed on through the soul connection brought by the soul oath with Feng Longde: the facts have been proven many times that his complaints, especially those in battle, will basically be reprimanded by his own immediate superiors as quickly as possible, if he really doesn't keep his eyes on it again and again, it is difficult to say whether Feng Longde will clean himself up after the war, so even if he doesn't understand, he can only complain by himself, and it will not be good for Feng Longde to know。

When Zhu Henghong nervously clenched the fan-shaped shield in his hand and gave orders from time to time to let the Boghall pikemen led by him move closer to each other to make the shield wall tighter, the muffled shouts of the lich mages finally came from the third line of defense:

"Launch—"

"Launch!"

"Launch!"

"Fire!" After the Lich Mages gave the Immortal King's order to launch through the Soul Link, the leaders of the various Teutonic artillery squads began to repeat the simple word again and again, spreading to the left and right of the entire third line of defense.

"Catapult !!" A sharp-eyed Japanese samurai had just stood behind a position, leaning out with his bow and string to release his arrows, when he saw the strength arm of the heavy Teutonic catapult looming on the hillside in the distance, and shouted hoarsely, full of fear.

Just as the bow-wielding Japanese samurai shouted in fear to attract the attention of the bow-wielding Japanese samurai around him, the muffled shouts of the lich mages waiting there were also heard from within the second line of defense: "Boghall sniper, fire!"

"Bang!" The sound of the gun and the crisp click of the bolt as it exited the cartridge case, the fear of the shouting Japanese samurai with the bow didn't last long, and his roar was ended by a headshot from a Boghall sniper who had been aiming at his head for a long time.

The sword-wielding Japanese samurai's helmet, decorated with horns and visor, immediately burst into a bright blood flower and fell diagonally behind the pillar, and at the last moment of his life, his eyes could see dozens of clay pots rising from the distant hillside approaching him from high in the sky

"Catapults! Catapults, on the slopes of enemy positions!" Fear spread so fast in the bow and arrow that even the Japanese samurai with the bow who had just stood ready to release their arrows changed their faces, and their exclamations full of fear could be heard clearly even by the armed human workers who were standing by in the pre-war camp.

One of the standard incendiary bombs fired by the Teutonic heavy catapult hit a position, almost at the moment of impact, the entire position and the ground within a radius of more than ten meters around it turned into a sea of fire, and the bow-wielding Japanese samurai who had not yet been affected had not yet been affected took refuge in a place far away from the sea of fire.

But at this time

"Boom, boom, boom" Several other incendiary bombs fired by the giant pole scale stone thrower hit the area around the sea of fire caused by the standard incendiary bombs fired by the Teutonic heavy catapult

"Whoa, whoa, ah!!!" The terrifying roar of the waves of fire that rose when the incendiary bombs made by the Teutonic Empire and the Third German Reich exploded were as if they were a light bow and arrow. The iron cannon ashigaru sounded like the screams of the Japanese samurai wielding the bow, and the wave of fire of the explosion directly engulfed them along with the position, and the black smoke rising from the air lifted up some of the bodies of the archers and arrows that were still burning violently, and then lost power and fell, smashing the heads of the rest of the bows and arrows and the Japanese samurai wielding the bows, and even killing some unlucky people.

While the Teutonic heavy catapults and the giant pole-scale catapults continued to fire incendiary bombs, the Teutonic artillerymen responsible for operating the "porcupine" repeating ballistae also smashed the triggers and poured the crossbow bolts that had long been ready to fire on the enemy's heads.

Different from ordinary ballistas, the "Porcupine" repeating ballista uses a device similar to a magazine, which can be loaded with a full ten rounds of crossbow arrows at one time, and then combined with the "Porcupine" repeating ballista itself has an extremely advanced gear transmission device, which allows the "Porcupine" repeating ballista to fire ten rounds of crossbow arrows in a row and then load a new batch of crossbow arrows, which is slower than the average archer's arrow release speed in terms of firing frequency - this is due to the fact that the territory of the classical era once reached most of the Ilib continent, The ancient Romulud Empire in the western part of the Chainar continent and the northern part of the Buke continent, they are absolutely excellent at making large-scale siege weapons as they continue to open up their territory and expeditions, and they are not inferior to the Teutonic Empire, which has been destroyed in this field much later, and the Teutonic Empire, which has established a unified regime much later, can be seen from the "porcupine" repeating ballista that has been in service throughout the Teutonic Empire.

Although the device similar to the magazine makes the reloading speed of the "porcupine" repeating ballista two beats slower than that of ordinary ballistas, its terrifying continuous firing ability, The speed of fire and the tougher firing power make this ancient heavy weapon of the classical era a veritable battlefield rain of arrows, and the ability to fire special crossbows with enchanted effects makes it much slower to produce than ordinary modern artillery, otherwise the Teutonic camp would have been mass-produced: although modern artillery can be mass-produced, it is generally impossible to fire cannonballs with enchanted effects, which is entirely related to the manufacturing technology of barrels and shells and other fields such as this, not that it can be easily passed with Lich Mages and technicians,That kind of situation will only appear in the vulgar web novel where the face of the writer who does not use his brain rolls the keyboard.,In reality, if you really dare to toss an enchanted cannonball so nonsense and ignore the use of it.,Then there is only one result.,Explode until you die.。

At this moment "porcupine" The continuous ballistas constantly caused a dense rain of arrows in the sky above the enemy, and the huge crossbow arrows covered the entire battlefield, and many bows and arrows and iron guns were nailed to the ground by the crossbow arrows like roast chickens, and they were not yet dead and weakly grasped the arrows of the crossbows, struggling to pull themselves out of it slowly, but in the end they could only die of exhaustion and blood loss; some bows and arrows were much worse than the Japanese samurai with bows, and some guys who stood closer were directly skewered together by a crossbow bolt and a skewer of mutton, and then they were nailed to the ground, even if they were not fixed to the ground, these people who are hit by crossbow arrows will die in a very short time full of intense pain. In contrast, those who were burned to death on the spot by the direct hit of the standard incendiary bombs fired by the Teutonic heavy catapult and the giant pole scale stone thrower were the luckiest, because they felt little pain when they died, and were far happier than their companions who were burned by the fire and their skin fell off at an extremely rapid rate and kept screaming that life was worse than death.

At the same time, the open space in front of the first line of defense was already in a sea of fire, and the Teutonic heavy catapults and giant pole scale stone throwers did not intend to stop, firing standard incendiary bombs incessantly, and more large clay pots turned into small black dots in mid-air and high in the air, and finally turned into clouds of black smoke and fire in the open space in front of the first line of defense.

The Ashigaru troops, who were originally under the command of the Japanese samurai and stayed behind the positions, were now completely in disarray, and even the heavy and tall positions were useless for the Ashigaru troops and the Japanese samurai with bows: these positions had good defense if they were protected against ordinary arrow rain or even small-scale hand cannon fire, but this time they were faced with standard incendiary bombs with extremely high combustion temperatures and powerful ballistae and crossbow arrows, which continued to collapse in the billowing smoke, and then broke and burned

At this time, the open space where there were many bows and arrows, iron guns, and bow-wielding Japanese samurai, as well as a large number of positions standing in a forest, was no longer the small green basin it used to be, and began to turn into a fire pit or oil pot in the mythical and legendary hell, devouring the bows and arrows in it, iron cannon ashigaru, and bow-wielding Japanese samurai one by one.

Even so, there were still many Japanese warriors with bows and arrows, iron guns, and Japanese samurai who managed to escape from the overwhelming incendiary bullets and crossbow arrows, and they fled to the forest, where their companions and men were slowly devoured and killed in the sea of fire and arrows.
