Chapter 60 Landmines
In the event of an ordinary sneak attack, it is undoubtedly the wisest decision to immediately reorganize the team and rush out of the pass. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Dozens of horsemen behind Boole had already reined in their horses and flew past him. These people are his own soldiers, and they can always understand his intentions at the first time and make the most effective actions.
At this time, the long voice came from the distance: "The second detachment is ready to ignite!"
Bull's heart tightened, and a very bad feeling suddenly rose.
He had a gut feeling that this explosion would be very close!
Boom, boom, boom
Before dozens of cavalrymen could rush out of fifty meters, a series of fires suddenly rose from the ground.
The men and horses closest to the explosion were shattered, and large pieces of flesh flew into the sky and scattered to the ground.
More men and horses were swept upside down by the fiery air waves, countless steel balls and steel fragments let out a piercing whistle, shooting into the bodies of men and horses, the cavalry only had thin leather armor, which could not withstand the impact of shrapnel at all, and instantly killed and wounded a large number of people.
Oh, my God...... What is this!
Roshi's face turned pale and he was completely dumbfounded.
Even if you are an Awakened, it will be difficult to inflict such a damage effect!
"A detachment prepares - ignition!"
Then the distant voice came again, as long and solemn, like a clown in a singing opera, but Bull could no longer laugh.
I don't know who shouted first, turned the horse's head and ran back.
"Don't mess ......"
Boom, boom, boom
This time the explosion was right behind Bull.
Flames and shrapnel flew everywhere.
He only felt a huge wall crash against him, the armor on his body clangled and clanged, and the two retreating horses under his crotch had been blown to a bloody blur, and they fell to the ground with a wail.
He instantly ignited his golden pupils, and his body seemed to be blurred, constantly dodging the shrapnel flying around. He instantly came to Roshi and pulled him behind him to protect him.
Roshi only felt dizzy for a while, and a nosebleed spurted out. In his confusion, he felt a sharp sound of breaking the air in all directions, and he was caught under his armpit, constantly moving and jumping, but he was not hurt in the slightest.
By the time he came to his senses, he was far away from the chaotic scene of the explosion.
While feeling deeply afraid, he couldn't help but feel a burst of joy.
As the commander of his father's bodyguard, Bull intervened to protect his life at the most critical moment.
But if it was his delusion, he felt that Bull was a lot faster than before.
But no matter what, now that he's away from that horrible explosion, it's definitely a good thing for him.
The cavalry could no longer suppress the fear in their hearts, and in just a dozen breaths, a hundred men and horses were shattered like that, like hell on earth.
But they haven't even seen the shadow of the enemy so far, how can they fight?
Moreover, Bull had fled with Roshi, and the dragons were leaderless, and the cavalry turned their horses' heads one after another, and they scattered in the direction of their travel.
At this time, Renault stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the continuous explosions below with the same anxiety, and he muttered in great distress: "What a pity, more than a hundred horses have been killed!"
"Lord Renault, what kind of weapon is this, why haven't I seen it before?"
Grizzly Lauren had already rushed back, and he was standing behind Renault with ten men to keep him safe.
"It's called a landmine. Renault was still feeling sorry for the lost horses, "This is the first time it has been put into use, and it seems that the amount of gunpowder is still a bit too much." ”
Lauren stared blankly at the crater that had been blown out of the ground, and even now, they were a little numb to the unheard-of weapons that Renault had created from time to time.
"Thunder on the ground, that's a good name. With it, it's much easier to deal with cavalry!"
"It's not ground, it's buried in the ground," corrected Reynolds, and he didn't hesitate to teach him, "that the secret of the use of mines is to be secretive, and to good use on such narrow mountain paths." If it is in a wide area, it is necessary to lay a minefield. But that would be too expensive, and the enemy wouldn't necessarily pass over the minefield, so it wasn't very useful. ”
Hearing the acceptance, Lauren was stunned, "That has nothing to do with ignition, isn't it buried in the ground a long time ago?
"It's just a little trick to make the enemy panic," Renault said with a laugh, "mentally stressing the enemy is sometimes a necessary means, you know...... Baggy's voice is loud. ”
......
On the pitch-black mountainside, Bull threw Roshi to the ground. Under his protection, Roshi was unscathed.
The cavalry in the pass was in disarray, and rushed back without a head, and they rushed into the infantry in the middle, and the horses with iron hooves trampled the infantry to a crush under the fierce leather whip.
Some of the hot-tempered infantrymen were overwhelmed, and at the same time, they drew their weapons from their waists and slashed indiscriminately, not wanting to die under the enemy's crossbow arrows, but they also did not want to lose the iron hooves of their allies.
As soon as someone took the lead, the other infantrymen did the same, and they pulled the cavalry off their horses, rode it themselves, and then repeated the mistakes of the cavalry.
As soon as the last material team saw that the form in front of them was not right, they threw down the carriage and began to retreat wildly, and before they could run thirty meters, they only heard the sound of countless crossbow arrows in the darkness, and a large group of people fell down like wheat blown down by the wind.
Finished!
Roshi's heart sank to the bottom, the cavalry had already suffered more than half of the casualties in the cannibalism, and the torches on the side of the supply troops had also been extinguished, and there was an eerie silence, which seemed to have been completely extinguished.
It stands to reason that at least most of the people are still left, and if they regroup, there should still be a chance to turn defeat into victory.
The long and solemn sound of the command always sounded in the darkness, making everyone's hearts tremble.
"Commander Boole, you can figure out something quickly!" Roshi called anxiously.
But Boole had no interest in the battle down the hill.
He took off his heavy armor, and his right shoulder was blood-red.
Just now, in order to save Roshi, he was pierced through his armor by a piece of shrapnel and stabbed deep into his shoulder, almost shattering his shoulder blades.
He plunged his finger directly into the wound, as if he didn't feel the pain, and quickly pulled out a sharp piece of iron.
"Turning a small piece of iron into a weapon of such power," he threw the shrapnel on the ground, "This Renault really gave me a small surprise." ”
"What are you talking about?" Seeing that Bull ignored himself, Roshi cried out a little angrily, "I'll tell you to hurry up and figure it out!"
"That's all I can do for you. Bull didn't reply, and his tone changed to Roshi, "I advise you to flee for your life, your army is already doomed." ”
Faced with the sudden change in his attitude, Roshi was a little stunned, sitting on the ground and looking at him wordlessly.
Bull's figure swayed.
If Roshi hadn't been dazzled, at the moment of shaking, Bull's appearance had changed! like a flickering phantom, even if it had changed back immediately, but in the few seconds just now, it was another person standing in front of him!
Roshi was completely shocked, he had never heard of such a strange thing.
Even fools know that this is very wrong.
"You...... Who the hell are you?
"It's almost time. This "Bull" gave him a cold look, "You go, I'm going to meet Renault for a while." ”
