Chapter 358: Incendiary Bomb (3)

Members of the 7th Squadron, their equipment is unique among all the City Guards.

Between their chests and abdomen, a thick layer of crusty armor embedded with copper wires was wrapped.

If they are injured by glass slag from a distance, their leather armor will ensure that they will not die as a result.

This time, however, the distance was too close.

The powerful impact of the explosion caused the glass slag to fly at an alarming height.

They pierced through the soldier's hard leather armor and stirred his abdomen and chest, however, because of the timely interception, the fragments did not complete the dispersion, and after shooting through the soldier's abdomen, they were finally intercepted by the layer of hard leather armor behind him.

One life, he exchanged one of his lives for a piece of peace on the city wall.

The people around them were stunned, and they stared blankly at the motionless figure lying in a pool of blood.

The city guards clenched their swords in remorse.

They regretted that they hadn't killed all the hateful Caesars sooner. If he could have been one step earlier, he would have saved the life of this unsung hero.

"Fang Commander ......"

A loud shout woke everyone up, and they remembered that they were still on the battlefield at this moment.

Although there were no enemies in front of them, there was still an endless army of Caesar under the walls.

"In ......"

Xiang Ming replied, his voice was as usual, although his heart was also surging, but his face was calm as if he was indifferent.

"Is the Red Sea ready?"

"Alright."

"Later, as soon as the city gate is opened, you will lead the army out of battle, and you will kill as many as you can."

"Yes......"

Their conversation was simple and clear, and it spread far and wide across the city, and it was moving.

Jiang Kongming turned around, let go of his throat, and roared in an extremely sharp voice: "Throw it at me, his grandmother's...... Blew them all up to me. ”

"Yes......"

The members of the 7th Squadron responded with a bang.

One incendiary bomb after another, with a thick black smoke and a brilliant color, exploded above Caesar's heads, and the beautiful shards of glass radiated a deadly beauty in the sunlight.

It also took away countless good lives in the prime of life.

In the midst of Jiang Kongming's screams, the incendiary bombs of the 7th Squadron rained down on the heads of Caesar's soldiers.

Every explosion has brought them a lot of casualties, and no one wants to be in such a horrific environment. No one knows where the next incendiary bomb will explode, and no one knows if they will be alive after the next round of explosions.

A strong sense of fear dominated the nerves of these warriors.

For the first time, when confronted with a thermal weapon, and an incendiary bomb of such power, their nerves were overwhelmed.

The legions in front were in chaos, complete chaos.

Countless people trampled on each other, and they fled backwards like headless flies.

Behind them, however, were rows of hoplites in high formation, and these steel-clad warriors raised their bayonets several meters long in their hands and rested them on the shoulders of their partners in front.

They aimed their sharpest weapons at their already routed colleagues.

They were like an impenetrable wall that held back the retreating rout.

"Retreat."

A loud voice came from the camp of Caesar's army, strong and high, old and powerful.

"Yes......"

The herald waved the order flag, conveying the order of the supreme.

The Caesar commanders did not hesitate to carry out his orders.

Under the orders of the commanders, the advancing procession began to turn around and slowly retreat towards the rear.

Their retreat was well organized, and as soon as the order was issued, everyone bowed to their orders.

The speed of the march is also extremely fast in a large-scale war, but their speed is still too slow compared to the front army that is in dire straits.

"Spread out ......"

A handsome and beautiful man who had reached the realm of charm suddenly appeared in the middle of the Chinese army, and beside him, countless attendants shouted at the same time: "Spread out...... Spread out to both sides. ”

As if the drowning man had grasped the last straw, the skirmishers desperately scattered to the side.

"What's that......"

There was hesitant hesitation on his cold face, and the third prince Algernon exclaimed.

In the face of his frightened questions, no one answered.

"Bancroft." The old voice sounded again, and although his hair and beard were already snow-white, his energy was still extremely vigorous. I can't tell at all, it's an old man in his seventies.

"Yes."

The dignified elder of the Fourth Legion of the Caesar Empire, when facing this seemingly kind old man, he didn't even dare to take a breath of air.

"Have you ever seen such a weapon?"

"Nope." Bancroft said categorically, in front of this old man, all his answers were instinctive, and he never concealed the slightest.

"Alas...... Among the Han people, there is such a powerful character who can make such a magical weapon. The old man turned his head and asked his old friend, who was also gray-haired, "What do you think, Abrama?" ”

"The Great ......" Grand Duke Abrama smiled slightly, his voice was as strong and powerful, but it was a little more euphemistic: "I heard that there is an omniscient figure in the army of the Han people, maybe this is his masterpiece." ”

Although countless soldiers died on the battlefield every moment, the two old men who stood at the pinnacle of Caesar's power turned a blind eye as if these were not their soldiers at all.

"That's their trump card, huh...... It is much more powerful than the chain of crossbow arrows that made the Huns suffer a big loss. It can be seen that the rumor is true. ”

"Father, what to do with those defeated soldiers?" Algernon came to the old man's side and asked in a low voice.

"Fold, don't dispose of it."

"What?" Algernon looked at the old man in disbelief, almost suspecting that something was wrong with his ears.

Julius Caesar, who had always been known for his severity and iron will, would have made such a choice, and when did he become so merciful.

"It's not them, it's the same result if anyone else commands." Grand Duke Abrama eagerly explained to the third prince.

"Yes......" Algernon did not dare to be rude to the Grand Duke.

"Let's rest for two days, it's good to be able to force out their last trump card." Grand Duke Abrama suddenly laughed and said, "Actually, it's the same if this city is not captured. ”

“？” There was a big question mark in Algernon's eyes, and he couldn't understand the meaning of the old duke's words.

However, the old duke did not mean to explain, and Algernon opened his mouth to speak, but finally chose to remain silent.

Jiang Kongming and Xiang Ming's faces were extremely solemn.

Until now, Jiang Kongming has not given the order to pursue, and Xiang Ming has not urged more than half a sentence.

Inside the city gate, tens of thousands of iron horsemen in full gear were waiting anxiously. However, the closed gates locked them firmly inside the city.

"Caesar, it's really not a bunch of mud......" Jiang Kongming sighed sincerely.

"Master Strategist, I'm afraid, this pursuit operation is going to be canceled." Xiang Ming smiled bitterly.

They had seen that while Caesar's front army was in disarray, their center, made up of heavily armored ironclad soldiers, remained strong.

No matter how the rout attacked, they could not shake a single cent.

Behind these ironclad soldiers, rows of brightly armored knights are waiting for each other.

With such a lineup, how could it be the remnants of the defeated army.

Pursuing at this time may not be a good choice.

Whether it is Jiang Kongming or Xiang Ming. They all deeply understand this truth.

They are all smart people, and they won't do this kind of thankless work.

Suddenly, their faces changed together.

Without the two of them's orders, the heavy west gate was making an unpleasant and piercing "creaking".

The west gate, the most important gate to meet Caesar, is slowly opening.

"Who is it?" Xiang Ming strode forward and asked sharply.

One of his hands was firmly pressed against his waist, on the handle of the sword.

At this time, he had already made up his mind, no matter who dared to disobey the military order and open the west gate without authorization, there was only one way to die. Even if that person is his younger brother Xiang Zhi.

However, his movements did not last long, and the fury on his face instantly changed to extreme surprise.

Xiang Ming turned his head, looked up at Jiang Kongming, who looked up at the sky and had an understanding, and said, "Master Strategist, is it your order?" ”

He looked down and saw that the army that was rushing out of the city was not the red sea of his family, but a fierce army wearing pitch-black iron armor.

This team is so familiar, since the day he was born, he has been in the sight of Xiang Ming.

He can be said to have watched this team step by step from obscurity to become the world's No. 1 historical witness.

And there is only one person in Wolong City who can command this team.

Jiang Kongming lowered his head and smiled, and said softly: "It's not me." ”

Xiang Ming was stunned in his heart, he naturally knew that Jiang Kongming would never lie to himself under such circumstances, so who had such the ability to command that black torrent.

"He's back......"
