Chapter 114 Grenadiers

Although he didn't have high hopes for the fighting power of his subjects, Luo Yi was still disappointed after seeing the results.

After several rounds of arrow rain, only a few of the orcs protected by large shields were hit by arrows, and none of them fell down.

In fact, the archery results of more than 200 militiamen were not as good as those of Luo Yi alone.

The elasticity provided by the simple bamboo bow is limited, but Luo Yi is already familiar with the performance of the bamboo bow, and can shoot without fail within 20 meters.

Luo Yi only shoots the orc who is carrying the ram, and he shoots very trickily, only shooting at three places: knees, eyes and throat.

Because the bow is soft, it is very easy for Luo Yi to draw the full string, one arrow after another, as simple as the legendary Lianzhu arrow.

Within 15 seconds, Luo Yi shot ten arrows!

Luo Yi's ten arrows were all right, but within 15 seconds, the orc had rushed to the edge of the wall with such momentum.

The orcs started charging from a distance of 30 meters from the wall.

They first rushed to the edge of the ditch under the rain of arrows, put the large shield (door panel) in their hands on the ditch, and rushed through the ditch to the sharp wooden fence.Then, the orcs hit with wooden shields, kicked with their feet, and dismantled them with their hands, quickly destroying the fence, and then rushed to the edge of the wall.

At this moment, the guards on the wall can even clearly hear the panting of the orcs below the wall!
Luo Yi didn't complain about the firmness of the fence because it was too harsh.

In fact, the original purpose of this kind of fence was to guard against humans rather than orcs.The orcs are much larger than humans in terms of weight and strength, so it is easy to destroy the fence.

In fact, it is not very difficult for human soldiers to destroy the fence.This kind of fence is actually just to prevent the human army from raiding, and it does not have strong defensive capabilities in itself.

However, although the orc soldiers destroyed the fence and rushed to the wall, they could only go so far.

The height of the fence is no more than three meters, while the average height of orcs is more than two meters, and they can stretch out their hands to put on the fence in one jump.

But the orc soldiers neither hit the wall with their bodies, nor tried to climb and jump, because the leaders were condescendingly poking the orcs with their spears at the moment.Under such circumstances, it would be difficult for even monkeys to climb up the fence, and it was even more impossible for the orcs to climb up with bare hands.

Although the fighting skills of the citizens are only five scumbags, their morale is still high, and they have an absolute advantage in terrain.Therefore, the leaders have a slight upper hand in this kind of battle.

And the orc soldiers struggled to support themselves on the edge of the wall with their large shields, spears and tenacious will.Occasionally, they could hurt the people above, and some orcs even quickly grabbed the spears and dragged the inexperienced people off the wall.

During the bitter battle, the orc roared loudly, urging Zhuang Mu to come over quickly.

Luo Yi's perfect arrows and continuous shooting delayed the impact speed of the collision, but the orcs showed the momentum of rushing forward at this moment.Once an orc carrying a log is injured or falls, an orc will immediately step in as a substitute.So the five bumping logs gradually approached the wall.

At this moment, Guan Yajun suddenly heard an order: "Light it up!"

Luo Yi glanced at it out of the corner of his eye while he was busy.Five able-bodied citizens have already lit the fuse of the homemade grenade.

Seeing green smoke coming out of the fuse and sparks rapidly approaching the mouth of the jar, Luo Yi was so frightened that he almost jumped off the wall.

This kind of fuse, which uses granular black powder as the core and cotton thread as the material, does not burn evenly. Now that the sparks are so close to the bottle, why doesn't the grenadier throw it? !

The important thing is that one of the grenadiers was standing less than half a meter away from Luo Yi!The jar in his hand is so big, even if it's just gangster medicine inside, it must be quite powerful - it stands to reason that the nano-protective suit should be able to block the sudden attack of gangster medicine at close range, but Luo Yi doesn't want to try it at all.

Fortunately, Guan Yajun gave an order at this time: "Throw it!"

So the grenadiers used all their strength to throw the homemade grenade.

After a few loud bangs, almost everyone's ears were buzzing.

The distance is too short, the farthest is no more than twelve or thirteen meters, and the closest should be less than eight meters.

The orcs were injured a lot by broken pieces of porcelain, glass, and small stones.This is a power beyond the understanding and imagination of the orcs, so more orcs who were not directly hurt were stunned amidst the pain and wailing of their companions.

The citizens should have seen this situation before, so continue to fight at this moment.Taking advantage of the bewilderment of the orcs, they used spears or bows to attack the absent-minded orcs by the wall.

In less than three seconds, the leaders achieved significant results and eliminated more than a dozen orcs beside the wall.

At this time, which orc was the first to react, turned around and ran away with a yell, so the attack of the orc failed completely.

……

Relying on homemade grenades, the leaders caused a lot of damage to the orcs in the battle of guarding the wall, but it was very difficult to expand the results of the battle.

There wasn't even a single regular soldier in the manor, they were all ex-slaves who had just been freed.

There is no doubt about the fighting will of the former slaves. In order to defend the extremely precious freedom and land, they can even overcome the fear of death.

However, it is not enough to have the will to fight. If the leaders are ordered to take advantage of this opportunity to fight back, the leaders who are allowed to attack may be killed by the orcs in the field.

If only the Hussars were here.

Luo Yi thought: Or any subservient clan will do here.

It's a pity that there are only leaders in the manor who have just received a few days of training.It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice, and no matter how good the opportunity is to beat a dog in the water, she can only give up.

Therefore, Luo Yi could only watch the defeated orcs flee.At this moment, he deeply experienced the mood of the Song Dynasty when it won the battle against foreign enemies.

……

Homemade grenades are big in size but pitifully weak in power.According to Guan Yajun, its killing radius is about five meters. Not only are there few shrapnel, but its lethality is also very doubtful.Therefore, the direct casualties caused by homemade grenades are not large.

This fact was probably also discovered by the enemy.After the orcs quarreled for a while, they began to line up to prepare for the second wave of charge.

The second wave of orcs attacked faster than the first wave, because their rams were thrown near the wall, and Luo Yi didn't dare to send the leaders out to deal with the rams.So now the orcs only need to rush to the wall and pick up the bumper again.

Luo Yi let out a long breath, lamenting how brave and fearless creatures like orcs are.But no matter how brave they are, they are only brave men from the Stone Age!
There are homemade grenades, so what if the orcs are brave and fearless? Can flesh and blood be able to fight against firearms?

Thinking of this, Luo Yi subconsciously glanced at the Grenadier.

The grenadiers were clutching their homemade grenades, ready to be thrown at any time.

Luo Yi suddenly thought of a strange thing.
