Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 725

"Soldiers of the Empire! Kill!"

The generals of the Hanhai cavalry were furious, and with their sharp sabers in their hands, they pressed hard on the mountain ridge, and charged forward at the head of the soldiers.

"kill!!!"

Tens of thousands of Hanhai cavalry unsheathed their sabers in unison, shining brightly, and the murderous shouts shook the snow from the treetops.

Facing the fierce and murderous aura rushing towards them, even though the Nanchuan soldiers had the right time and place, they still couldn't help but look tense, and their hands clenched with weapons were sweating.

"Up arrow!"

The Nanchuan officers were calm and composed. After all, they all crawled out of the sea of ​​corpses and blood. They had seen many formations much larger than this, and they still gave orders in an orderly manner.

There are two logistics engineer flag regiments in the Explosive Bear Corps. They are special troops of the Nanchuan Army. Although they do not fight directly, they guarantee the logistics and have the most powerful weapons. Their combat power is not weak at all. force.

Marshal Lin Chuan paid special attention to the research and development of weapons. He replaced the sabers of the cavalry with ring-handed knives made of fine steel. From spears to various weapons, they were all made of harder fine steel.

In addition, he also invested a lot of money in the research and development of new weapons, such as the famous arrow nest, short-shot crossbow, bed crossbow, incendiary bombs made of kerosene...

Lin Chuan knew that the Nanchuan Army wanted to lay the foundation for the hegemony of the mainland. In addition to training elite soldiers, it also needed powerful weapons. Weapons can double the combat effectiveness of soldiers and change the state of future wars.

Although Lin Chuan has not yet found the raw materials for the development of black powder, he has sent people to search everywhere. As long as he finds black powder, the future will be a war of hot weapons, not the current condenser.

This time, Ming Yang led 15 elite soldiers of the Nanchuan Army to the Far East. Compared with the millions of elite soldiers from the vast expanse rushing aggressively, their numbers are not superior.

However, Mingyang and the others carried a large number of sharp weapons newly developed by the Nanchuan Army, and Xiegu was destined to be a testing ground for them to test new cutting-edge weapons. Of course, those sturdy Hanhai cavalry were their guinea pigs.

The Hanhai cavalry launched a swift and fierce charge towards the mountain ridge along the gentle slope of the inclined valley, with murderous intent and momentum like a rainbow.

On the mountain beams on both sides, the Nanchuan soldiers were as silent as a mountain, only the friction sound of bed crossbows and various crossbow arrows.

In the past, the long-range strike troops of the Nanchuan Army generally used first-grade longbows, but they had serious flaws. For the rising Nanchuan Army, they did not have so much energy to train archers.

Archers not only need long-term training, but also have weak melee combat capabilities. Once they are approached by the enemy, they will almost die.

Based on this situation, Lin Chuan ordered the development of small crossbows to gradually replace archers. After a long period of exploration, the range of the individual crossbows developed by the Nanchuan Army has reached the range of the original first-grade longbow. Almost all Nanchuan soldiers who entered the Far East An individual crossbow weighing about two catties, and the archers withdrew from their battle order.

The advantage of replacing the archer with a single crossbow is obvious. Soldiers only need simple training to master it. After drawing the bow and shooting twelve arrows, the basic arm is weak and loses combat effectiveness.

But the use of individual crossbows is different. As long as the supply of crossbows is constant and the individual crossbows are not damaged, they can shoot continuously, which is a huge advantage.

At the same time, both spearmen and sword and shield soldiers carried individual crossbows, which greatly increased their long-range strike power. They have gradually transformed from a single type of arms to an all-round soldier.

The task of the logistics engineering unit equipped with troops is to ensure the supply of their crossbows and arrows, as well as the delivery of large bed crossbows.

The current Nanchuan Army is not only capable of individual combat, but also armed to the teeth. Every piece of equipment on their body has been researched and developed with concentration, which is enough to fight around the clock.

The cold wind was blowing on the mountain ridge, and the Nanchuan soldiers were silent, only the creaking and rubbing sound of the crossbow machine, and countless crossbow arrows glowing cold were aimed at the charging Hanhai cavalry.

The Hanhai cavalry rushed up the gentle slope with fierce expressions on their faces. They were all elite veterans who fought with the imperial generals in the north and south. They didn't pay attention to the Nanchuan soldiers on the mountain ridge at all.

The military merit rewards of the Hanhai Empire are generous, and the Hanhai cavalry can't wait to cut off the heads of Nanchuan warriors to claim their merits and rewards, but they will soon know what it will be like to bravely face the difference in weapons and equipment slaughter.

"Bed crossbow! Twenty degrees down! Shoot!" Nanchuan officers' voices were loud and clear, and the engineers operating the bed crossbow immediately adjusted the shooting angle and fired.

With the sound of metal rubbing, the arrow with the thickness of the forearm was fired from the bed crossbow, and rushed towards the vast sea cavalry with murderous intent and infinite arrogance, the air was tearing.

Puff puff!
Thousands of bed crossbow arrows were like a barrier of death, colliding head-on with those Hanhai cavalry who shouted and shouted to kill.

The crossbow bolts left huge blood holes in the chests of the Hanhai cavalry with the roaring strong impact force, and the entire body of the Hanhai cavalry was destroyed like paper.

The strong force of the bed crossbow arrows penetrated the body of a cavalryman and No. 2 cavalryman, causing a bloody storm among the vast sea cavalry. The crossbow arrows strung together many vast sea cavalrymen like skewers , and then tumble down to the bottom.

The cavalry charged with their heads up, and the horses and cavalry who charged in front were shot and killed by crossbow arrows. Their bodies rolled along the gentle slope, causing the queue behind to become chaotic.

"Go up!" The generals of the Hanhai cavalry saw that the cavalry in front were shot to death by the powerful crossbow arrows. Although they were shocked, they guessed that the opponent must not have many crossbow arrows, so they roared and continued to attack.

The Hanhai cavalry showed their bravery and bravery in battle, destroying their horses and attacking the mountain ridge one after another, but the crossbow arrow network formed by the bed crossbow was like a barrier of death, and those who touched it would die.

The corpses kept rolling down, and the vast sea cavalry still howled and charged, the blood stained the inclined valley, and the miserable screams echoed throughout the space.

The head of the Hanhai brigade led some cavalry in an attempt to attack the Nanchuan cavalry, but with a wave of Zhange's big hand and a single crossbow salvo, more than half of the charging Hanhai cavalry was lost.

Rivers of blood flowed in the valley, shouts of killing shook the sky, and the sound of crossbow arrows tearing the air continued. After the bed crossbow was the octagonal ox crossbow, after the octagonal ox crossbow were dense individual soldier crossbows, and then there were incendiary bombs made of kerosene.

The Nanchuan Army seemed to have an inexhaustible supply of new weapons, and these brave Hanhai cavalrymen were shot to death in pieces and burned to death by incendiary bombs.

By the 10th minute of the fierce battle, the entire inclined valley had turned into a Shura hell. The vast sea cavalry had suffered heavy losses and had lost the ability to charge. experienced wars.

They are very brave and fearless of death, but facing the continuous stream of crossbow arrows and watching their companions being skewered like meat by the crossbow arrows, even though they have experienced many battles, they will inevitably collapse and despair. This is not fighting, this is massacre.

Standing on the mountain ridge, Ming Yang looked expressionless when he saw the slanted valley full of corpses.

The staff officers standing behind him were very excited to see the crossbow and arrow showing their power at first, but soon their expressions changed. The scene was too bloody and cruel. When it was pulled out, some people couldn't help but bent over and vomited.

"Stop shooting! Close combat!" Ming Yang's tone was resolute, full of majesty and unquestionable.

Although relying on the strength of weapons to win, an army that does not dare to fight in close combat will never be a strong army. Now that the Hanhai cavalry has suffered heavy losses, he needs to use the blood of the remnants of Hanhai to show the Nanchuan soldiers blood.

"attack!"

The Nanchuan soldiers in black armor let out a roar, and then rushed down like a tiger descending the mountain, crashing into the formation of the Hanhai cavalry.

The Hanhai cavalry had already suffered heavy losses. Facing these screaming Nanchuan soldiers, they were so powerless to resist, and they were full of despair.
