Chapter 111 Suppression
Facing the enemy's continuous shooting, the Bone Warrior was defeated for the first time. Not only was he unable to rush over, many people died, so he could only retreat to the village in embarrassment.
"Close the door quickly!"
After running back, the captain hurriedly shouted to the guard guard: "Hurry up!"
When the last bone warrior outside retreated, the door was closed again.
Seeing this scene, Lu Sha, who was commanding from the front, was deeply impressed. The fire suppression caused by the three-stage shooting tactic was beyond imagination. The lord seemed to have thoroughly figured out how to use the musket.
Seeing this, the lizardmen from other tribes were so shocked that they could not close their mouths.
Aren't the weapons in the hands of the Shensha tribesmen equipped with bayonets for stabbing? They actually had some reservations in their previous actions, hiding such a powerful attack method.
Seeing the skillful reloading of bullets by the two rows of musketeers, the other three clan leaders thought to themselves, is this the reason why the Shensha clan clan leaders have the confidence? The weapons provided by humans are indeed terrifying.
Inside the village.
Finally escaping from the hell outside, the captain let out a long breath.
At this time, Zar came over angrily and scolded him.
"Trash! Under your leadership, so many Bone Warriors were lost, but the other party did not suffer any losses."
The Bone Warriors only have a total of five hundred people. It's not that there are few highly skilled Black Wind tribesmen, but that they only have so much equipment.
No matter how much you scold, it's a waste of time. Zar finally waved his hand and said impatiently: "Get out of here!"
"yes……"
The captain looked frustrated and retreated with his tail between his legs.
Turning his head to look at the door, Zall was holding back his anger, but now he had to calm down and think.
Fortunately, we just sent out a hundred Bone Warriors to test the situation, otherwise the casualties would have been even more severe.
The enemy's attack is very fierce, and it is very difficult to break through head-on. The best way is to spread out the attacking team, which can reduce casualties and quickly approach the enemy.
But here it is impossible to disperse the team. This is determined by the geographical environment where their village is located.
The only entrance and exit is the gate in front of you, so the opponent only needs to focus on attacking the front.
Damn it! Where did the opponent get such a powerful long-range attack weapon? Long-range... that's right! I also want to use long-range weapons to counterattack.
Thinking of this, Zar turned to another captain and said: "Let our archers line up and prepare to shoot with bows and arrows!"
"yes!"
The captain nodded in response, then turned and left, directing the archers to line up in four lines behind the gate.
"Raise the arrow up for me, shoot farther!" Zar ordered.
The captain repeated it once, then raised his arms and gave the order.
"Pull the bow - send it!"
He waved his arm, and with a series of whooshing sounds, sharp arrows were shot out, over the wooden wall, and flew in the direction of the enemy.
However, the arrows shot out drew a beautiful parabola and all landed in front of the enemy. None of the arrows could fly to the enemy's area.
I have to say that the bows and arrows of the Black Wind Tribe are too stretched, but there is a reason for that.
In tribal wars, lizardmen dislike the use of bows and arrows.
Because the lizard man's own appearance is covered with a thick layer of scales, it is difficult for bows and arrows fired from a distance to break through that layer of protection.
At medium distances, the power of a thrown spear is greater than that of an arrow. Not to mention at short distances.
Lizardmen only need to wear a set of strong armor to protect themselves from bows and arrows.
The Bone Warrior of the Black Wind tribe is a good example. The biological armor on his body has excellent defensive capabilities, and bows and arrows can hardly cause any damage to it.
It is precisely these factors that cause the lizard people to have no interest in developing bow and arrow technology. The manufacturing technology of the bow is very backward, the range and power are very limited, and it is completely inferior to the bows or crossbows made by humans.
"How's it going?"
After a round of shooting, Zale raised his head and asked the scout on the watchtower about the battle situation outside.
The scout above nodded, approached and lay down on the inside of the low wooden wall, carefully poked his head out, took a quick look, and then immediately retracted his head.
Due to what happened to the priest before, the scouts were all frightened, fearing that they would be the next person to be shot in the head.
Then, the scout returned and reported loudly: "Chief, the distance between the enemy and us is too far, and the arrows fired cannot reach us."
"Damn it! It seems we can only rush over and have a big fight."
Knowing this result, Zar couldn't help but cursed.
Now we can only ask all soldiers, especially the Bone Warriors, to hold their shields and stand in front of them to forcefully break through the enemy from the front.
Zar led the Black Wind tribe to conquer all tribes and had a proud temper.
Now he was beaten by the defeated tribe and huddled in the village, which made him very angry.
So, Zar turned to a captain in charge of logistics and said: "Bring out all the shields in the warehouse and prepare to fight with them."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a shocking loud noise from outside.
The gate of the village was opened in response, and a large iron ball flew over and hit the soldier behind the door. The subsequent ricochet even dragged out a long trail of blood.
With just one blow, more than thirty Black Wind tribesmen were killed on the spot. This was the result of their gathering behind the gate.
"what happened?"
Looking at the broken door with his mouth open, Zha was stunned for a moment.
…
outside the village.
Seeing that there was no new movement from the Black Wind tribe, Lu Sha turned to look at Kerman.
"Push that big guy out."
Kerman nodded seriously, turned around and left.
After a while, five strong Shensha tribesmen slowly came to the rear of the battle line pushing an artillery piece.
Only very strong lizard men can push heavy artillery like this. Humans need horses to pull them to move the artillery.
People from other tribes watched curiously as the Shensha tribe pulled over a large black iron lump, not knowing what they were going to do.
Ever since he saw the power of artillery last time, Lusha strongly requested Irving to lend them an artillery piece.
The two parties discussed the matter for a long time before deciding on it.
However, it would be too time-consuming to wait until winter is over to transport the artillery into the Mystery Forest.
In the end, we decided to move it in advance and selected ten strong lizardmen to send the artillery and a few cannonballs into the Mystery Forest during the winter, and then find a hidden place to hide them.
Due to the humid environment of the forest, some measures are needed to ensure the dryness of the artillery.
However, Owen originally planned to use artillery to deal with large undead monsters. If one is missing, the firepower may be somewhat insufficient.
Fortunately, there are already steam boring machines that can drill holes. It is not difficult to manufacture artillery. The key is the material-steel ingot.
In order to build an extra cannon, Owen could only spare time and go to the blacksmith shop to use magic to help make steel using the steel frying method.
Putting down the cannon, the five Shensha tribesmen operated the cannon familiarly according to the steps taught before.
At this moment, the Black Wind tribe fired arrows from behind the door, but the funny thing was that they all landed in front.
Lower the firing angle and aim the muzzle at the Black Wind tribe's village gate.
"fire!"
Following Kerman's order, a huge roar resounded across the sky.
