Rise of the Empire Total War
Chapter 433 The Battle of Arcas (4)
On the Arkas Heights, the two armies are still fighting.
Relying on advanced firearms, the Third Brigade of the Second Army of the Kingdom shot and killed a large number of enemy soldiers during the charge of the coalition forces. However, after the armored melee infantry broke into the trench defense line, they had to retreat. A musket equipped with a bayonet bayonet can be transformed into a spear, but it is still difficult to hurt soldiers with armor protection, while the sword wielded by the opponent can easily cut through their uniforms-so they can only retreat actively, In order to avoid excessive casualties.
Shoot! Cover friendly forces!
Fire!
bang bang bang—
After a series of bean-popping gunshots, the coalition soldiers who were trying to chase the retreating Winster army were shot and fell to the ground. The people behind stopped immediately when they saw it, watching each other and dared not take any action. Seeing this situation, they were arrested. The soldiers were heavily protecting the general Opponia inside, with a gloomy face, pointing his sword at the line infantry who were still shooting, and shouted: Archers and javeliners shoot, suppress the enemy!
shooting!
Throw the javelin!
One after another shouts sounded in the coalition army formation. Immediately afterwards, those light infantrymen equipped with bows and arrows drew their bows and arrows, and under the scolding of the officers, shot at the line infantry positions, and those infantrymen carrying a bundle of javelins even bent over their backs. He rushed towards the second line of defense with his waist down, thinking that this would reduce the chance of being shot, and when they were within range, he threw the javelin at the opponent with all his might.
Due to the shortened shooting distance, the retreating line infantry did not have enough protection capabilities. The dense clusters of arrows and javelins rising from the coalition army hit the targets from behind one after another, making the soldiers miserable and could only speed up. Speed jumped into the second trench, took a short rest and got up again to shoot at the enemy.
Load! Free fire!
Feeling the cold wind and whistling brought by the arrow clusters passing overhead, a company commander who retreated to the back shouted loudly. Before the soldiers around him could respond, an arrow went straight into the Gaotong army above his head. The cap was only a few centimeters away from his scalp, and his back was soaked in cold sweat in shock.
bang bang bang—
Amidst the continuous gunshots, a soldier had just finished loading, and then got up to shoot at the opposite side. Before he could take an aiming posture, a javelin fell from the sky, and it was inserted through his slightly opened mouth accurately, and then brought With a powerful force piercing from the back of his head, before the unlucky soldier could utter a scream, the inertia of the javelin brought the whole body nailed to the soil behind him.
This scene was caught in the eyes of the officer who was lucky enough to escape,
He couldn't help swallowing the saliva he secreted due to nervousness, and then checked the flintlock pistol in his hand. After confirming that the loading was complete, he ventured to stand up from behind the bunker, pointing the pistol at a light gun that was gathering strength to prepare for throwing. Infantry, the next second, gunshots rang out, and the light infantryman had blood holes the size of soybeans on his body, and he fell to the ground in response. Without any extra energy to check the results of the battle, the officer retreated behind the cover again. Just a few seconds after he retracted, another round of arrows struck, directly shooting and killing several soldiers beside him who could not dodge.
Where's the Grenadier? Where's the Grenadier? He fumbled at his tall military cap with two holes, and shouted to the people around him. Each brigade has a grenadier company composed of the most elite and outstanding soldiers in the entire brigade. In addition to being equipped with standard muskets, they are also equipped with three to four grenades (compared to the earthen grenades a few years ago, The current grenade has been improved to have higher stability and greater power), generally speaking, if you want to counterattack, the grenadier will rush to the front.
The enemy has been suppressed, soldiers, charge up!
At this moment, the enemy's war cry spread from the front into the trench, and passed into the ears of every soldier, making their hearts rise to their throats. The enemy's archers and javeliners threatened them all the time, so that they could not move forward. Withdrew to the next line of defense (if they forcibly retreated, they would probably suffer fatal blows during the retreat), the soldiers checked the fire doors of their muskets one after another, and only raised half their heads to check the situation outside, waiting to launch a countercharge.
However, at this moment, a shrill whistle suddenly sounded behind them, and the soldiers looked back reflexively. They couldn't be more familiar with this sound. It was clearly the prelude to the grenadier's attack. !
Sure enough, under the watchful eyes of the soldiers, the six grenadier companies of a regiment moved forward in neat steps under the whistle of the chief officer. The average height of each of their companies was higher than that of the incoming coalition forces, and Everyone is strong and strong, and it looks spectacular from a distance. The grenadiers who suddenly entered the battlefield stopped the allied forces preparing to charge and watched them vigilantly. The archers in the allied forces also changed their targets in time and shot deadly clusters of arrows at the grenadiers. Although the grenadiers belong to the elite of each brigade, they are still the same as ordinary soldiers under the threat of arrows. Under the threat of arrows, almost every step they take will kill several people, but the soldiers They all moved forward expressionlessly, not paying any attention to the arrows that grazed their bodies.
Grenade ready!
The leading officer spat out the metal whistle he had been holding in his mouth, and shouted loudly. As soon as he finished speaking, every soldier in each company took out a fist-sized metal iron ball from the canvas bag on his waist, Then light the fuse on the grenade with the torch that I carried with me. After the fuse is lit, it starts to burn with a sizzling sound, and black smoke rises.
Throw!
call!
The soldiers roared in unison, and the grenade in their hands was also thrown vigorously. The round early grenade rolled and flew in mid-air, drawing a beautiful arc, and then smashed into the crowd of the coalition army like a hailstone. The weight of this early grenade was very considerable. When it fell from a high altitude, the soldiers of the coalition army were smashed and screamed again and again. Just when these soldiers were guessing what the purpose of this metal ball was, the lead wire of the grenade burned out, and the gunpowder inside was ignited, only to hear a series of deafening explosions, dazzling sparks burst into the crowd!
Boom boom boom——
The deadly shrapnel brought by the explosion flames raged in the crowd, taking the lives of one soldier after another like mowing grass. The coalition soldiers huddled together allowed the power of the grenade to be fully displayed. After a series of explosions, the people standing there A large number of coalition soldiers fell down, and the rest were shocked by the sudden explosion. One Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. Their faces were pale, and they could not recover for a long time. And taking advantage of this time, the grenadiers took out the muskets on their backs, stood in front of them, and took the initiative to charge amidst the bleak whistle of the officer!
