Chapter 258 Shocking! The Divine Machine Battalion is powerful!

Sun Chengqin led 5,000 cavalry and launched an attack on Suyang's Yan army.

These five thousand light horsemen came from the land of Liaodong, and most of them were composed of Liaodong rangers, who were well-armed and well-trained.

The situation in Liaodong is complicated, there are a large number of Mongolian, Jurchen and other barbarian tribes, often harassing the Han people, so the Liaodong Iron Cavalry is also in the midst of fighting all year round, and the combat power can be described as outstanding.

It is precisely because of this that when the new emperor Zhu Yunwen learned that Geng Bingwen's 130,000 miscellaneous army was defeated, he immediately turned red and ordered the military leaders everywhere to hand over their elite soldiers to Commander Li Jinglong.

For example, Qu Neng's father and son brought their elite soldiers in Sichuan and Shu, and Yang Wen, the current commander of Liaodong, also handed over the Liaodong Iron Cavalry under his command, which was commanded by General Ping'an, the son of Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang.

Sun Chengcheng is a member of the Liaodong Iron Cavalry, and his sons and daughters are also Liaodong warriors!

So he has enough confidence to despise the Yan army in front of him who doesn't even understand the battle array!

The distance between the two armies is about 500 paces, and the war horse needs to have an acceleration process, and the southern army uses the high slope dive to greatly reduce the time for the war horse to accelerate.

Almost in the blink of an eye, Sun Chengcheng had already led five thousand light horsemen to rush to the front, about three hundred paces away.

"It's coming!"

Su Yang's eyes froze, staring at the situation in front of him.

"Childe!"

"Enough distance!"

Xu Xiang was so anxious that he was burning inside, holding the long sword tightly in his hand.

But Su Yang didn't give any answer, and was still silent.

The effective range of the Tiger Squat Cannon is limited, and it is too far to hit the enemy.

"Artillery ready!"

Su Yang shouted.

After receiving the order, the artillerymen in front of the formation all took a deep breath.

They had long used large iron nails to fix the cannon body to the ground to prevent the recoil from overturning the cannon body.

To put it bluntly, the tiger squat cannon is the most rudimentary mortar, like a large grenadier with a low depression angle, in order to facilitate shooting, the cannon is placed in a fixed posture, much like the appearance of a tiger squatting, hence this name.

However, because the cannon body is too light, so before firing, the cannon body must be fixed on the ground with a large iron nail, each launch can be loaded with five dollars of small lead or small stones hundred, with a weight of 30 taels of large lead bullets or large stone bullets on the top, when the launch of the large and small bullets fly out together, the roar is like thunder, the lethality and radiation range are very large, especially suitable for field warfare, such as the current scene.

All the artillerymen were rushing ducks to the shelves, although they were already familiar with the firing steps, but after all, they had never really been on the battlefield, so it was inevitable that they were extremely nervous now.

But thanks to the strict military discipline training maintained by the Xishan Military Camp for a long time, even if the enemy army has rushed towards them, no one has flinched and fled, they are all waiting for someone to give an order!

"Childe!"

Xu Xiang spoke again, almost roaring.

The enemy army was only two hundred and fifty paces away from our own formation, which was absolutely enough.

If they don't attack again, the next moment the enemy cavalry will easily enter the formation, and they don't even know how they died.

"Fire!"

Su Yang gave an order.

The artillery that had been prepared for a long time was fired quickly, and a row of thirty Tiger squat guns suddenly emitted a deafening artillery salvo.

In an instant, the pebble lead bullets shot out from the sky, and the cavalry of the Southern Army who rushed to the front was instantly beaten into a sieve!

Thirty tiger squatting cannons fired a salvo, and in an instant, the projectiles in front of the formation were dense like rain, overwhelmingly shooting at the cavalry of the Southern Army, the cavalry of the Southern Army never thought that the firearms of the Yan Army were so fierce, and they put on a dense charging formation at the beginning, so that they became a rare good target in an instant!

The artillerymen fired the Tiger Squat Cannon, and the gunners were not idle.

After a full year of training, they have become familiar with the firing process and can launch the fire gun with their eyes closed.

After the first row of firecrackers fired, they quickly withdrew to the rear, while the second row of firecrackers took over, and when they finished firing, it was the third row, and so on, greatly improving the efficiency of firecrackers.

But in the blink of an eye, the cavalry of the Southern Army who had been screaming and rushing over was now wailing all over the field, with internal organs flying, stumps everywhere, countless people with broken hands and feet, and those who rushed to the front were beaten into a sieve.

Their fall caused the formation of the Southern cavalry to be chaotic, but the dense lead bullets continued to burst in, not giving them a chance to resist at all, and one after another the Southern cavalry fell in a pool of blood, either killed on the spot, or trampled into flesh by the war horses behind them.

Because the distance was too close, it was impossible for the cavalry of the Southern Army to stop charging, and there was no time to buffer, so they could only keep moving forward and face the rain of bullets and bullets of the Yan army!

After the artillery fired, they continued to reload the second round of ammunition, and the musketeers made up for this gap in time, following the three-stage shooting they had been trained in their daily training, and frantically poured lead bullets from the muskets on the enemy.

In the blink of an eye, the cavalry of the Southern Army, which was originally invincible, was beaten and wailed all over the field in an instant, stumps and broken arms could be seen everywhere, and blood flowers were flying all over the sky, and it was impossible to see a complete person.

Even Sun Cheng, the chief general of the Southern Army, was directly hit by the lead bullet fired by the tiger squat cannon, which weighed thirty taels, plus the kinetic energy of the gunpowder, which directly pierced Sun Cheng's waist and turned him into "two people".

Sun Cheng's upper body fell to the ground, and the war horse continued to impact with his lower body.

He didn't understand until he died, how could firearms be so powerful!

As an old man in the army, Sun Cheng has not used firearms, but that thing is easy to blow up, and it can't hit the enemy, so it has long been abandoned by the soldiers.

Especially for the Liaodong Iron Cavalry, the firearms are useless at all.

Even if the enemy army controls the firearms, it is a big deal to rush and kill for a while, sacrifice the soldiers in the front row, and wait until the enemy is dumbfounded, just rush and kill all of them, where will they have a chance to resist.

However, in today's battle, Sun Cheng witnessed the correct use of firearms, and also experienced the terrifying lethality of firearms!

However, the price he paid for this was fatal.

He paid with his life.

One by one, the horse's hooves stomped down, and Sun Cheng's upper body was trampled into meat puree!

This sudden and terrifying scene frightened everyone in place, but only the Shenji Battalion was still carrying out military orders, frantically pouring ammunition in their hands.

I don't know how long later, Wang Ergou was horrified to find that he had no ammunition.

"No ammo!"

"Do you still have any, hurry up and calm me a little!"

"It's gone! We're gone! ”

The soldiers of the same company spoke one after another, and looked up a little dazedly.

The enemy troops who rushed over frantically before have turned into a piece of minced meat at some point.

They had already defeated the enemy, and they had already killed the enemy so that they were not human, but they didn't notice.

Under the high-intensity tense oppression, the Shenji Battalion erupted with unimaginable terrifying combat power, frantically reloading ammunition and continuing to shoot frantically, until finally completely emptied all the lead bullets, and then finally stopped.

Xu Xiang and the other 5,000 soldiers were already dumbfounded, and they looked at Wang Ergou and these soldiers of the Shenji Battalion with horror on their faces, and they couldn't speak for a long time.

Win!

Really won!

And it is still a victory without injury, with zero losses!

The enemy cavalry didn't even rush to the front of the battle, and they were swept into pieces of meat by the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion!

This kind of magic machine camp is too terrifying!

Su Yang endured the throbbing in his heart and quickly ordered.

"Quickly clean up the battlefield and withdraw to the West Mountain!"
