Eagle Byzantium

At this time, behind the carriage board of the long caravan, elite gunners had already been hidden separately. The bronze barrels of the perfume bottles were placed on the low solid wheel trolley and fixed securely with chains and complicated ropes. The ground behind them Above, crouched were fire-throwers armed with muskets, arrows and crossbows.

When a fire thrower raised his head from the observation opening on the carriage board with his iconic parachute mane raised, the Cuman cavalry stretching in front of him kept rushing toward him, and he could clearly see their mounts. Open mouths, spraying out clouds of mist, and all kinds of ferocious and proud faces.

As soon as an arrow flew in, the fire thrower's head immediately shrank, and then more and more arrows flew over the top of the caravan, accompanied by the shouts of the Cumans and the sound of horse hooves, and some shot into the car hood. In the canvas, there were nooses, falling, and clattering on the shoulders and arms of the fire-throwers who were hiding in ambush, but everyone still remained calm and motionless.

In an instant, a lantern with a long sable tail, following the pulley and noose, like an extremely agile monkey, was brushed up on the erected mast of a "command caravan" in the center, and swayed in the wind.

At this time, the horses in the front row of the Cuman cavalry had their teeth bared and their manes were sharp. They were less than a hundred feet away from the dark carriage board.

"Long live!" All the Cumans couldn't help shouting in unison, and the sound shook the whole country.

"Fire!"

"Gudong, Gudong", the shooting hole baffles of the eight "gun covered carriages" were pushed up and set up by push rods. These shooting holes were specially modified and chiseled after the Persian Perfume Bottle Cannon Equipped Brigade and Pyro Throwing Regiment. A wide horizontal cross shape is designed, which not only allows the muzzle to be extended smoothly for firing, but also allows the gun body to remain stable during shooting, without damaging the shooting hole due to concussive force.

Amidst the rapid rotation of the small wooden wheels and the fine friction of the greased carriage boards, the gunners held on to the iron rings or pulled the hemp ropes to push the gun carriage, and stretched out the black muzzles of the perfume bottles one after another. shooting hole.

"Bang", a lead shot flew out of the shooting hole with white smoke and sparks flying from the butt.

It hit the leader of the Cuman cavalry in the face. The man's head was broken directly from his neck. The hands on his body were holding the reins backwards, and he fell from the horse. His head was smashed by the terrifying and powerful " "Bundak" lead shot continued to be pushed in the air, and hit the chest of a cavalryman close behind, knocking the opponent Fang's robe was smashed immediately, and the former's head was also sent into the latter's chest. However, the lead shot still carried the remaining power, penetrated through the body covered in blood, and hit the chest of the horse behind the cavalry. After the bones were shattered, the horse staggered to its knees and flung the screaming rider to the ground.

The remaining seven Bondaks flew out from the arranged shooting holes almost at the same time, sweeping across the approaching Cuman cavalry team. Flagpoles, spears, bows and arrows, human bodies, and horse hangers were all cut off, " There was an endless sound of bang bang bang, accompanied by clouds of blood.

However, the Cuman cavalry behind them did not know and could not cope with such a situation. They continued to advance fiercely on the fallen and rolling bodies of their companions. Behind the caravan, after the fire-throwers fired the bombardment, some stood up and placed their firecrackers on the edge of the carriage board, and some stretched their crossbows and firecrackers into the small shooting holes, "Keep shooting!"

A thunderous sound exploded, shaking the field. Yasen and Xhosa, who was commanding over there, were so frightened that they instinctively shrugged their shoulders - the barrier once again sprayed out rows of small clouds of nitrous clouds, and was released The Cuman cavalry who were approaching and attacking took turns landing on their backs one after another, and were trampled randomly by the hooves of the horses coming from behind, turning them into living targets unable to advance or retreat.

Yassen Khan was holding the wine bag, and the wine from his leather mouth gurgled down to the ground at his feet. He opened his mouth wide and trembled all over. He saw his cavalry being shot over and slaughtered in groups in the smoke. Many of them The ownerless horses ran along the opposite sides of the barrier as if they were lost.

After the fire throwers finished firing volleys of firecrackers and arrows, the craftsmen and gunners placed the second barrel in the "belly" of the perfume bottle, with a terrifying sound, and then fired another shot that was enough to plow " A round of lead in "Flesh Alley" After one lead shot pierced the chests, limbs and limbs of the four cavalrymen in front and behind, it only shot forward thirty feet. It was bounced back to the ground by the flesh and blood bodies, and stabbed on the ground where the horses' legs were kicking. Spin like crazy, stay Then he rolled back to the wheels of the caravan, jumped several feet high with a "bang", and smashed the wheel to pieces. The whole caravan suddenly tilted and sank. Several gunners fell over with exclamations, and the perfume bottles were heavy. The gun barrel is also sideways It turned over, and the spare barrel kept jumping and rolling down, breaking a gunner's calf: the gunner was caught between the compartment board and the hot barrel, and he collapsed there screaming, "My leg is gone. My legs are fucked!"

Several craftsmen from the rear rushed up with wooden blocks indifferently, raised the tilted side of the caravan, and then stuffed the wooden blocks into the cushion to stabilize it. Then they and the able-bodied gunners worked together to lift the "perfume bottle" cannon, push it back to the firing hole, and "continue shooting." A craftsman said to the gunners who were looking at him with a solemn face.

"Continue, I said continue!" Seeing that the other party was still hesitating, the craftsman roared angrily.

The injured gunner, whose calf had been completely broken, was dragged off by the others on a simple stretcher. The remaining gunners gritted their teeth, reorganized the barrels, and "ignited and fired."

After three or four rounds of perfume bottle cannons and light muskets, the Cuman cavalry was completely defeated in front of the wagons in the huge spreading smoke. Many people rode back on their horses, and some lost their mounts and followed behind, constantly crying out in collapse. Then they were shot by crossbows and arrows from the wagons, piercing their backs one by one and falling dead.

But this was not the end. Amid the violent sound of horses' hooves, Kosa in the southwest corner was horrified to see: Gawain and his cavalry were rushing towards him.

The result was obvious. Kosa and his people turned around and fled again. He did not have the courage to confront Gawain head-on, even though he had 500 heavily armed cavalry, and most of Gawain's subordinates were lightly armed auxiliary cavalry or Oghuz volunteer cavalry.

After the western chariots defeated Yasen Khan's cavalry, all the wagons were quickly tied to the yokes of the pack animals, including the perfume bottle cannon. They turned to the wheels and began to gallop in the pre-indicated direction with other wagons and boxcars that raised a cloud of dust. Archers stood on the wagons, the drivers shouted, and the red-handed infantry put their spears into the wagons, accompanied only by their sabers between the wagons, rolling forward.

A perfect version in 16-9 Book Bar!

The cavalry of Taitishius arrived here in an hour, but he did not have time to fight Gawain, nor did he have time to annihilate Gawain's brigade. All that can be seen is the vague back of Gawain's cavalry galloping away after completing the cover mission. "It's a failure. If it could be faster, Gawain might not be able to break out." Taitishius said regretfully.

Ma Xiu, who was standing beside him, was looking at the bodies of the Cuman cavalrymen and horses lying densely packed on the west side of the battlefield. They were spread out there in a gray haze, and from a distance they looked like a river of death, or a huge bloody rag. (To be continued ~^~)
