Chapter 913: All-out counterattack
The armies of the eight kingdoms are not straw bales, they have been at war with the Qiankun Empire all year round, and the ability of the generals is not low, although they are frightened by the new weapons, but they are not dizzy. ¥f,
So the fat man ran back and commanded the troops to turn. The thin man summoned his soldiers to stop the chariots that rushed out of the city. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to send cannon fodder to rush forward.
They all knew that the opponent's new weapon was based on the same principle as a grenade, and its long-range attack was extremely powerful, and once it was in a melee, it would be completely useless. The soldiers rushed forward, and the opponent, in order to avoid close combat, must attack the cannon fodder first, so as to buy time for the army to retreat.
As for rushing over and fighting each other, they didn't even think about it. 200,000 soldiers are too many, densely populated, and too far away from each other. A dozen of those monsters killed thousands of people, and now the other side sent hundreds, and how many people on their side had to die when two salvos were fired. If the manager is accidentally blown up, it will be completely finished.
More than 3,000 soldiers rode fast horses and rushed out of the two ** teams to meet the chariot. They seemed to know that they were going to be cannon fodder, and they all shouted like crazy with hideous faces and madness.
At this time, the two ** teams were more than 800 meters away from each other, and it took more than a minute for the fast horses to run, and they were all scattered. The opponent had to deal with these cavalry, and there was no time to attack the large forces.
However, they calculated well, and the truth was not what they expected. The chariot suddenly stopped, ignoring the rushing cavalry, and fired a volley at the armies of the two countries.
"Boom~" The violent bowstring shook and the stirring air was fluctuating, and more than 300 watermelon iron balls quickly flew towards the armies of the two countries.
The black light quickly enlarged in his vision, and the thin man was so frightened that his blood was cold. He really didn't expect the other party to stop, and the range would be so far. Even more ignoring the onslaught of the cavalry.
I can't think about it too much at the moment, he doesn't run as far as a fat man. Although it is already some distance from the back team. But who knows if it's safe or not, how far that monster's range will fall to the ground. He didn't know at all.
"Spread out, all the hell scattered!" the thin man roared, and quickly dismounted and hid under the horse's belly.
In fact, there was no need for him to shout, the soldiers also saw the flying black spots, and they were so frightened that they ran to both sides quickly.
They all want to disperse, but there are too many people, how can they disperse. People crowded, people bumped into people, and the back was instantly chaotic. Some of the smart ones just fell to the ground.
"Boom~" There was an earth-shattering loud noise, and the thin man felt the ground under his feet throb violently, and his ears were filled with terrifying sounds that were so sharp that they seemed to cut through the air.
The fat man was running forward with his own soldiers, giving a quick order to turn. Suddenly, there was a loud explosion from behind, and he turned his head back and looked at his face with horror.
A large area fell to the rear, and countless soldiers fell to the ground, the terrible wails and the neighing of the horses were incessant, and the eyes were full of blood, and the strong bloody breath was swept in the air.
The thin man came out from under the horse. It was found that the explosion did not affect him. But a few dozen meters away, it became hell on earth. The range of more than 300 bombs reached several thousand meters on both sides, and at a glance, the ground was covered with people and blood. There are thousands of people on sight.
Almost none of the soldiers who had followed the thin man's command and scattered were killed. Lying on the ground is better. Although it was an air explosion, there was a tall man blocking the shrapnel. However, most of those lying on the ground were also trampled by the chaotic crowd. Howl loudly.
The fat man glanced back and sped forward. yelled: "The front team goes first, hurry!
At this moment, he didn't care that the team had not fully turned, and what he was thinking about was how much he could run, otherwise these 200,000 people were really not enough for the opponent to shoot a few rounds of volleys.
The thin man remounted his horse and stared at the cavalry, which had already rushed out a hundred meters, and the speed was getting faster and faster.
"They definitely don't attack that fast, even if they throw grenades, it will take time, let alone such a large weapon...... Hurry up, rush up and blow them all up for me!"
The thin man's mouth kept pounding, and his two fists clenched tighter and tighter. It's a good thing that the other side ignores the cavalry, no matter how many casualties there are on their side, as long as they can blow up these monsters, the battle will be won.
Once the horses rushed up, the speed was as fast as thunder, that is, more than half a minute, and the cavalry was less than three hundred meters away from the chariot, and the personnel on the chariot were only then completely opened the bowstring and loaded the bombs.
"Hehe, as I expected, such an attack can't be too fast! Now that you're ready, it's too late to adjust the angle......" The thin man finally saw hope, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a sinister smile, and he yelled: "Quick, speed up! Blow them up for me!"
In a few breaths, the war horse had already rushed to within a hundred meters of the chariot, and the soldier had already taken out the grenade he was carrying. As long as the distance is reduced to sixty meters, throw it out.
But at this moment, the man on the chariot suddenly took out a small black crossbow, held it up and pulled the trigger on the name.
"Boom~" A cavalryman running at the front was like being hit by a sledgehammer, his head was jerked back, and his body fell backwards from the galloping horse, falling with a bang.
"Herod~" The war horse neighed, wanted to brake but couldn't brake, and the strong inertia threw it out at once.
"What are they holding, bows and crossbows, why don't they see crossbow arrows! This is nearly a hundred meters......" The cavalry saw this scene, and these thoughts flashed through their minds in an instant.
At this moment, four people stood on each of the station cars, armed with bows and crossbows. The sound of the bowstring was continuous, dense as a firecracker, and almost every sound of the bowstring sounded, a cavalryman fell.
Amazingly, there were no crossbow arrows to be seen at all, and most of the cavalry that were hit had a bloody hole in their foreheads.
The three thousand cavalry did not rush to the front, and at a distance of eighty meters from the chariot, most of the horses lost their front hooves and fell hard, and many tripping pits appeared on the ground!
Falling at high speed, not dead but also crippled, and those with great lives intact, they have also become targets for bows and crossbows.
Occasionally, two of them can throw a grenade, but when they are exhausted, they can throw thirty meters is not bad, and they can't even touch the hair of the chariot.
The thin man was stunned from behind, and he knew why the other party had stopped the chariot and why he ignored the cavalry onslaught.
For a while, the thin man felt that his throat and eyes were dry, and cold air was coming out of the cracks in his bones. The opponent's new weapon is not the same, and he is not afraid of close combat, what kind of bow and crossbow is that, the range can reach nearly 100 meters, how can this battle be fought.
Before he could slow down, the second volley of the opposing vehicle's vehicle began. The piercing sound of the air woke him up, and he hurried his horse forward.
After the violent explosion, a large body was left behind, again thousands.
Next, the thin man sent cannon fodder snipers in a row, and he didn't need to block the opponent, he just needed to let the opponent not move.
At the cost of nearly 20,000 people, they finally dragged the chariot, and the armies of the two countries turned around and moved.
ran out for dozens of miles in one go, and the fat man and the thin man breathed a sigh of relief, but as soon as they counted the statistics, the two of them had the heart to cry, and they lost 40,000 people, which was more difficult to accept than the loss of the Third Army's counterattack...... The opponent had only three hundred chariots from beginning to end, and the number would never exceed two thousand.
At the same time, in the city tower led by the Blue Seal, Chen Xuangan was still recalling the battle just now, shaking his head and sighing again and again while thinking: "Three hundred chariots, less than two thousand soldiers! It is really incredible that the 200,000 army fled in panic and annihilated 40,000 enemies!"
Grand Duke Blue Seal said with a smile: "It's nothing incredible! Those things that Jiang Xingchen called cannonballs, each of them is ten yuan stones! At least more than two thousand pieces were shot just now, how much do you calculate!"
"Gollum!" Chen Xuan's throat slid violently, and he said secretly: "God, it's 20 million citrine coins for a while, and it's ......"
Chen Xuan was speechless, the two sides of the war were competing not only with the strength of the soldiers, but also with logistics, materials, etc., which he knew, but after such a short while, 20 million was gone, and the impact on him was really not small.
"I really didn't expect that the cannonball was actually loaded with ten yuan stones, no wonder it was so powerful...... Where is this war, it's simply money!" Chen Xuangan shook his head and said.
"That's right, it's money, especially after the grenades come out! Why have we been losing out before, it's because we don't have the money to produce more grenades!" said the Grand Duke of the Blue Seal.
"What about now!Jiang Xingchen has so much money?" Chen Xuan wondered.
Grand Duke Blue Seal smiled and said in a low voice, "That kid wrote that this is just the beginning...... Do you know why I didn't let you go out to hunt down just now?"
Chen Xuangan thought for a moment and laughed: "Black Wind Fortress, annihilate the other party....... this is really just the beginning, our all-out counterattack is about to begin...... However, does Jiang Xingchen really have so many stones.......
Just when Chen Xuangan was puzzled, hundreds of miles outside Hongyuan City, the Seventh Army had already retreated here. However, Wu Tianfeng's big tent did not see the atmosphere of defeat at all.
"I really didn't expect that Brother Jiang would come back safe and sound...... Hehe, it's tight enough!" Wu Tianfeng laughed, got up and walked to the middle of the camp, where a brand-new ballista was placed.
"Good thing...... Dongxuan Kingdom, you are majestic enough, it's time for you to see something new...... Come on! All the pro-soldiers are lined up!"
Wu Tianfeng commanded and strode out of the tent......
In the Sixth Legion, Wei Ning watched dozens of craftsmen assemble the ballistas, and his eyes were a little red! The two major legions were defending here, almost filling them with human lives. Of the 300,000 sergeants, less than 150,000 remained, and it can be said that all of them have been disabled.
"Stinky boy, I didn't even say a word when I came back! I didn't take out such a good weapon earlier, I have to settle accounts with you when I go back!" Wei Ning muttered, his face showing hideousness, and said loudly: "Come on, prepare to rehearse tactics!"
At the same time, the 1st Army, the 2nd Army, and the 4th and 5th Army Corps also brought in a large number of grenades and mines, and the Qiankun Empire's all-out counterattack began......!
