Iron Dynasty

PS: There will be another chapter soon

Boom boom boom...

Hundreds of field artillery simultaneously began to bombard the coalition artillery that was constantly approaching the Yunzhou army.

When the coalition musketeers kept approaching the Yunzhou army, these coalition artillery hidden in the army also took the opportunity to move forward, but all this could not be concealed from the flag bearers who were observing from a height of hundreds of meters.

The location of the enemy's artillery was constantly informed by the semaphore, and Luo Xin then directed the artillery to fire in the direction pointed out by the semaphore.

After a salvo, the coalition soldiers covering the artillery fell. The coalition artillery was completely exposed to Luo Xin's eyes at this time, and then more violent artillery bombarded the direction of the coalition artillery, and screams suddenly sounded.

The tragic situation of the artillerymen quickly reached the ears of Cui Huai and the second prince, and the two changed their expressions when they heard the words. At this time, a strange color flashed in their eyes when they looked at the strange thing rising from Yunzhou City.

This is the rumored hot air balloon. Cui Huai asked.

The second prince nodded, Yes, I saw it once in Chang'an. It is said that during the Battle of Jizhou, the Qingzhou Army also used this hot air balloon to investigate the situation in the barbarian army.

Hmph, if I remember correctly, there is a hot air balloon in Chang'an City.

There is one. This is what Xiao Ming gave to his father back then. It should be in the hands of King Zhao now. The second prince was dissatisfied. This time King Zhao sent 40,000 cavalry. .

Otherwise, how could they be so passive now.

Zhao Ang's ears looked at his nose and his heart, as if he didn't know anything. Now all the people who have lost are King Yan and King Liang, and there seems to be some joy in his heart.

Cui Huai and the second prince were naturally distressed. The strange-looking artillery on the raised high ground kept firing round after round of shells, and now their artillery couldn't fight back at all.

However, at this time, they gradually realized that the range of their artillery was not as good as that of the Qi army.

It's just that the suppression of the artillery did not make them give up their plans to attack. On the contrary, they ordered the army to move on. After all, their soldiers were more than twice as many as Qi's army.

Now, instead of defending the city, the Qi army is fighting against them in the wild, which is giving them the opportunity to annihilate them in one fell swoop.

The death of thousands of artillerymen in the army of 350,000 will not affect the war at all.

Rumble... The sound of the war drums became more and more urgent, and the musketeers in the coalition army were still 250 meters away from the Yunzhou army.

At this time, Lu Fei, who was in charge of the Central Army, ordered the soldiers to raise their muskets. This time, the Central Army was assigned 6,000 rifled rifles to fight against the musketeers of the coalition forces.

Although he can order fire at about 400 meters, Lu Fei understands that the closer the distance, the more intensive firepower he can take advantage of, so he finally decided to order fire at 250 meters. After all, the position of 400 meters is too bad. .

Fire! Just as the coalition musketeers were still slowly approaching the Yunzhou army, Lu Fei finally gave the order.

Bang bang bang...

White smoke rose along with the flames, and the musketeers of the coalition forces who were marching intensively 200 meters away suddenly collapsed.

A coalition soldier only felt something warm on his face, and then his companion fell down, looking at the army of Yunzhou City with muskets in front of him, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

It's just that he didn't dare to stop, because behind them were the inspectors with machetes. As long as they stepped back half a step, they would be killed on the spot, and their relatives in their hometown would also be killed together. After arriving in Bingzhou, they would be killed. Got this order.

Bang bang bang...

Another round of salvo, the soldiers next to the coalition soldiers fell another group, and the number of musketeers became less and less.

Then came the third round, the fourth round, every time there was fire and white smoke on the opposite side, they would fall a group of people. Finally, after the fifth round of salvo, some musketeers finally couldn't bear the fear of trying to escape.

But they were killed by the inspector before they could run far. The screams stopped more soldiers who were trying to escape, and they bravely advanced towards Yunzhou City step by step.

One hundred and fifty meters, one hundred meters, seventy meters, and when they reached the firing range of the arquebus, they raised the arquebus.

On the artillery position, Niu Ben watched the musketeers of the coalition army. At this time, his brows were wrinkled and his expression was solemn. He noticed the presence of the supervisors in the coalition army.

In the past, these musketeers would collapse after being damaged by 10%, but now the musketeers who came from the front were damaged by 40% and still did not retreat. Instead, they braved artillery and musket fire to a range of seventy meters.

It seems that this is a tough battle. Niu Ben said in a deep voice.

Luo Xin's expression was also a little surprised. This time King Yan and King Liang seemed to have made great determination, otherwise they would not have taken such cruel measures to force the soldiers to die.

Change the grape shells, let the mortars use lime shells and flowering shells, and the field guns aim at the inspectors! In order to minimize casualties, Niu Ben ordered.

Yes.

Luo Xin immediately ordered the semaphore hand to play the semaphore. At this time, the artillery began to change to grape bullets. When the range of the artillery was farther than that of the flintlock gun, the artillery was the main force of the war.

Boom boom boom... Field artillery using grape bullets began to shell the coalition musketeers.

When a grape bullet was fired, it immediately turned into a rain of bullets composed of hundreds of bullets. The musketeers who were about to shoot fell down one by one, screaming, and the ground was full of the wailing of wounded soldiers.

Lu Fei's expression on the opposite side shows no mercy. They have no grievances with these soldiers, but they are enemies on the battlefield. If they don't kill them, they will be killed themselves.

Seventy meters is also the effective range of the flintlock. After being fired by a wave of coalition musketeers, he ordered the rifled flintlock and smoothbore flintlock to shoot at the same time.

Under the fierce artillery fire and shooting, the coalition musketeers continued to fall, and finally after the loss of 70%, the coalition musketeers could no longer bear the collective rout.

Death to those who retreat! roared the Overseers, their machetes falling on every fleeing soldier.

But the threat of death was no longer able to stop the soldiers from fleeing.

Rosin watched the group of inspectors with binoculars, and he ordered the artillery to be heavily bombarded by the inspectors who prevented the soldiers from retreating.

Gradually, the inspectors found that they had fewer and fewer people, and they gradually lost their restraint on the army in front. Under the fierce artillery fire of the Yunzhou Army, more and more soldiers scattered.

Seeing this, Niu Ben let out a sigh of relief, but he sighed in his heart at the same time, if King Yan, King Liang and King Zhao could come up with such a method to deal with the barbarians, how could the barbarians bully the Great Yu Kingdom.

So at this time, he became more and more angry with King Yan, King Liang and King Zhao. In his opinion, they were just a bunch of cruel tyrants.
