Chapter 196: Fire Coverage
The projectile is not heavy, this small trebuchet is completely sufficient, and the range is not low.
It's five or six hundred meters away.
There were many unlucky ghosts in the Yuan army that rushed quickly, and they were hit by oncoming things.
Although it was not heavy, it was also smashed off the horse.
Before he could come back to his senses, the Yuan army behind him had not yet reacted, and an earth-shattering explosion followed.
The mud was mixed with stumps and broken arms splashed everywhere, and the Yuan army that rushed in front and the Yuan army in the rear broke off at the waist, and the formation was stagnant.
The earth-shattering sound also frightened the horses of the Yuan army, and the entire charging formation was startled by the explosion, and it was immediately chaotic.
Gao Basi Timur looked at the sound of the explosion, and the vanguard of the Yuan army was shrouded in gunsmoke.
The smoke of gunpowder dissipated, the forward was gone, and there was not one out of ten Yuan troops who rushed to the front, and the ground was full of stumps and broken arms, proving that they had come.
Gao Basi Timur's eyes were torn and he looked at the trebuchet of the Ming army.
After all calculations, it was originally a hard-fought battle, thinking that at least the situation would be five or five.
After this bombardment, Gao Basi Timur was completely sober.
The clown was never someone else, and the Ming army dared to come to the competition, so he was naturally prepared.
This burst of sound must be the legendary earth-shattering thunder.
Even if I had heard about it and was on guard, I didn't expect it to appear in this way at this time.
Don't care about grief, and give an order immediately.
"Wave the flag, disperse, continue to charge, don't stop, it's safe to rush into the Ming army."
"Yes."
With the order of Timur, the formation of the Yuan army became sparse, and once again launched a charge.
The merchants who were watching the battle only heard an earth-shattering explosion, and the forward of the charging Yuan army was gone.
The timid even collapsed to the ground in fright on the spot.
"Horror, horror."
"With this artifact, I know why I am afraid of Xiaoxiao."
The businessmen were immersed in the shock, and they couldn't come to their senses for a long time.
Only the businessman who came to Lin only changed color slightly, and he really felt the power of the earth-shaking thunder, after all, he had experienced it before, and he experienced it again, and he was mentally prepared.
Even so, there is still an unattainable chill in my heart.
As soon as Shang Jia's mind was settled, he saw that the Yuan army had launched a charge again, but the formation had been greatly dispersed, and he had obviously learned a little experience.
However, it was warm, and the trebuchets of the Ming army continuously threw out earth-shattering thunders from them and fell into the Yuan army.
The sound of explosions was incessant, and the rushing Yuan army rapidly decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the formation could no longer be maintained.
Only the sparse Yuan army continued to rush towards the Ming army.
Four hundred steps, three hundred steps, the distance is getting closer.
The cavalry of the Yuan army picked up their bows and arrows with indignation, preparing to shoot a wave first.
However, the remaining distance of two or three hundred steps was like a moat, and it stopped.
The improved version of the firearm is officially launched, if the number of Yuan troops rushing is large, then these two hundred guns are useless at all, at most one round.
However, it is not enough for the Yuan army to rush to the front now.
With the smoke of gunpowder coming out of the poles, the Yuan army that rushed up by luck was like cutting wheat, and they didn't have time to draw their bows and arrows, and they fell to the ground one after another.
The Ming army's firecrackers finished fighting in a row, and they were connected later, and there was a steady stream.
Because the smoke and dust of the gunpowder were too large, it was shrouded in a cloud of gunpowder smoke and hazy.
But it doesn't matter, at this time, the accuracy of the negotiation is a hooligan, what is needed is to suppress the firepower, and the blind cat will kill the mouse.
With this blow, the Yuan army could not rush out of the Ming army's firepower coverage at all.
Gao Basi Timur looked directly at the Ming army formation at this time.
Is the Yuan army afraid of death, the answer is obviously not afraid, and even more so in this group of carefully selected Yuan troops.
However, under the double blow, the Yuan army was still unable to break through the firepower network formed by the Ming army.
As time passed, more and more Yuan troops rushed to the front of the Ming army, but they still could not rush in.
The distance is getting closer, as if there is hope, but it is even more desperate.
The largest cavalry opponent expected had not attacked, and the Yuan army had already suffered heavy casualties.
No matter how arrogant he was, under this huge gap, Gao Basi Timur couldn't help but feel a burst of despair.
And the Yuan army, which was charging, was even more so, almost collapsing.
But the order was not given, so he could only rush forward and rush into the formation of the Ming army one after another.
One hundred steps, fifty steps, ten steps, and finally, with the first Yuan army, rushed into the Ming army shrouded in gunsmoke.
One by two, without suppression, more and more Yuan troops rushed into the defense line of the Ming army.
The Ming soldiers who were blocked from sight didn't have time to react, and they were slashed to the ground with a knife.
The formation of the firecrackers was chaotic.
However, they soon scattered and fled, and the trebuchets stopped their projectiles and gave way to their positions.
The Ming army was running fast, and there were not many Yuan troops rushing now, so the casualties were not very large.
As the smoke cleared, the Yuan army, which rushed to the front, completely occupied the positions of the Ming army's firecrackers and trebuchets.
Although I rushed in, it was useless, it was not a broad avenue, but a trap pit waiting one by one, and I don't know when it was dug.
The Yuan army, which was caught off guard, suffered a dark loss at the moment.
Then there was the vibration of horses rushing to kill, and it turned out that the Ming cavalry, who had been waiting for a long time, launched a charge.
After the previous weakening of firepower, the Yuan army of 3,000 people is no more than half at the moment, except for the wounded soldiers wailing in the ground, the Yuan army that can really continue to rush and kill is no more than 1,000 people rushing from the rear.
The superiority of forces was fully demonstrated at this moment.
The sparse Yuan army was met head-on by the oncoming Ming cavalry.
Two fists are hard to beat four hands, let alone one against three.
The Ming army did not leave a back hand at all, and all of them rushed forward.
There is no suspense, one knife is blocked, but the second knife cannot be blocked.
Chopping melons and vegetables, the cavalry of the Yuan army was quickly cut and killed.
One was left to finish, and the rest of the cavalry galloped away in the direction of the Yuan army's battalion Gao Basi Timur.
The road was unimpeded, and soon rushed to the front of Gao Basi Timur.
There is no nonsense, the final battle of this battle, there are spectators on the side, and it doesn't matter if you keep your hands.
did not give Gao Basi Timur a chance to react, and the Ming army was about to kill Gao Basi Timur.
Even if there are still wounded soldiers of the Yuan army who are left behind, they belong to the personal guards of Gao Basi Timur, which is completely useless at this moment.
No one can stop this imposing army.
The strength of the two sides is not proportional at all.
Gao Basi Timur, who knew that he was powerless to return to the sky, also put down the blade in his hand at this time.
At this moment, there is no longer the courage and arrogance to look at death.
Some are just chills and longing for life.
After all, there is still a hint of life in being invited.
Seeing that Gao Basi Timur put down his blade, his personal guards and the recalcitrant Yuan army also put down their weapons.
The Ming army was a little unsatisfied, looking at the surrendered Yuan army, and reluctantly dismounted and tied them up.
