Chapter 247 Support (550 order plus update)

The blacksmith also arrived at the old general half a minute later. He and the accompanying gunpowder master had just checked the powder boxes in the camp to see if they were at risk of being damp.

Living in the tropical south, the humidity problem has a great impact on the preservation of gunpowder. Before the gunpowder master was in Wangcheng, he often encountered the situation that the gunpowder could not be ignited normally after being damp, so he paid great attention to the influence of the environment and weather in different places.

Although the Lion Heart Country has no systematic research on geography, the locals are very familiar with the local weather conditions throughout the year. The Lion Heart Country arrested three local people from Morning Glory Town and brought them all the way here, just to understand the local weather conditions. weather conditions.

"This is not the most humid time yet, and there will be a wet month in two months, and the floors and walls of my house are covered with fine drops of water." The local said so.

But now is not the time to recall the local people's quotations. The blacksmith calmed down and listened carefully to the sentry's repeated description of the appearance and characteristics of the wooden handle grenade, and then listened to the old general's questions.

"Let me ask you, like the gunpowder weapon with a wooden handle that the sentinel just said, whether our Lionheart City has the ability to manufacture it." The old lion man looked at him seriously with a straight face.

The old blacksmith frowned and thought about it quickly in his mind.

He also studied the composition of gunpowder in depth. After listening to the sentinel's description, he realized that the charge space of the wooden handle object was too small, and the amount of gunpowder charged could not achieve the effect of flying people.

He thought for a while and replied: "It is not difficult to make this wooden thing, but to achieve the explosion effect he said, I think I have to ask a gunpowder master to come and answer it. After all, this thing involves the amount of gunpowder used. I make weapons. First-class, but not as good at making gunpowder."

The old generals immediately invited the gunpowderer in the army to come over. The gunpowderer's face turned bitter after hearing the sentinel's description of the grenade for countless times.

"What, is there any difficulty?"

Veblen and other veteran generals are very good at observing words and emotions. Once they see the distressed expressions of their subordinates, they know that they can't make it.

"My lord, this description is too vague. I really don't know the length, width and height of the 'wooden handle'. If you want to blow up adult lion soldiers wearing plate armor, you must use a lot of black powder."

"Then tell me, how much gunpowder do you need?"

Facing the increasingly serious old lion man, the gunpowder master compared the size of the drawing with both hands, hesitatingly said: "At least it must be as big as a crock pot to have the effect of blowing away plate armored soldiers."

Lionheart City has not developed explosives, and does not know what nitroglycerin is. Currently, it only knows the composition of black powder.

The veterans bowed their heads in thought, probably understanding how bad Lionheart City's current situation is.

What the enemy has, they don't have.

how to spell?
The lions were at a loss when suddenly a messenger ran over and gasped:

"My lord, the Sixth Regiment of our main force has arrived at the designated location, and is exchanging signs and signals with semaphore, requesting to enter the camp and rest."

……

In the forest, the riflemen wanted to drag those heavy steel shields, but found that they were very heavy. Even after they were awakened, it was a bit difficult to carry them.

But it's just hard work, and it won't be too much for one person to carry.

"This thing is really heavy. I guess my hands will go numb after carrying it for more than ten minutes."

"So behind these shields, there are two teams. When you are tired, someone will switch hands and continue to carry them. Tsk tsk tsk, it is really hard work to block the musket shots.

The Cat Army returned to the woods with their shields on their shoulders. Since there were too many shields captured, and the number of guerrilla members was only two hundred and five, the musket orcs who were scouting outside also joined the carrying army and dragged the shields away.

They need to drag these shields away as soon as possible. Once the opponent sends a large army down to grab the shields, they must give up the shields to avoid the battle.

After carrying it for about 4 minutes, a row of heavy-shield warriors appeared at the gate of the enemy camp. It seemed that they wanted to get back the shields for their own people.

These extra-thick steel shields are important properties that cost a lot of money to build. Lionheart City obviously doesn't want to leave such precious items to the enemy.

At this time, the cat-eared orcs had dragged all the shields into the forest, but they didn't drag them very far, and the first task was to harass the enemy.

The task of moving the shield was given to the musket soldiers on standby inside the city wall. They guarded the city wall to prevent the enemy from detouring and sneaking.

……

Da da da, the sound of footsteps.

The soldiers with shields went down the mountain collectively, feeling very heavy in their hearts.

This time, they didn't wear plate armor, and they all went into battle lightly.

This means that once they are shot, there is a high probability that they will die.

But in other words, even if they put on plate armor, so what?
The final result is that the bullet penetrates the plate armor and penetrates the body, causing irreversible injuries.

Instead of wearing heavy armor, they are more flexible and have the opportunity to actively escape when the "wooden handle" hits the ground.

But here comes the problem, how much dodging space is away from the shield, and whether the enemy's gunners can hit them is another unknown.

"If, I mean, if you have a chance to get that strange wooden explosive, you must throw it back, no matter how far you throw it, and throw it away as quickly as possible."

This time the leader warned everyone with a heavy tone, so that everyone should not be overly pessimistic.

The heavy shield soldiers walked down step by step, knowing that this advance was very dangerous, but they had to take risks.

There were only [-] heavy shields in the camp, and [-] were lost this time. The officer in charge of this operation almost wanted to apologize with death.

He simply led 100 diehards to carry out the recapture mission, acting as a bait on the front, and testing the possibility of throwing those wooden handle explosives back by the way.

According to the sentinel, it took a second or two for the wooden handle explosive to explode after it hit the ground, and this second or two was their chance of survival.

Their task is to use the front as a bait to cover another main force to attack the enemy from the side.

The Lionheart Kingdom does not intend to sit still. As I said earlier, this is just a food force, and the main force is continuously joining this large army camp.

After the calibration in this short hour, Wang Chengjun found that the number of enemies should not be many, and the number of enemies was predicted to be only about [-].

Just now, one of the main forces also rushed to the vicinity, and stood on a high place to communicate with the sentry tower soldiers for a while using semaphore.

The general also used the way of semaphore to convey, so that the main army that had just arrived nearby went around and attacked the Musketeers.

The lionmen of the sixth regiment communicated with the orcs in the camp far away. In theory, they were not discovered by the cat tribe, so they were suitable for sneak attack work.

But as they went deeper, there were more small animals around, and sometimes a few birds flew over their heads.

At this time, the head of the sixth regiment looked up at the birds that were going away, and murmured: "Sneak attack or something, it is almost impossible to succeed in other people's territory. This is something that was discussed before the war. Look!" The old people who came to the camp are here."

However, the number of enemies is only three to four hundred, and the terrain is forest terrain. If you are lucky, you can use trees as a cover. The advantage of firearms is not particularly good, and there is a possibility of winning.

"Take off your armor and follow me!"
