Umar left Medina and walked more than thirty miles in one breath. He had not seen the Tang people yet, and he was irritated:
Didn’t I say that we were less than fifty miles away from Medina yesterday? Why haven’t we seen anyone yet?
At this time, the scouts came back and reported that the Tang people were not far ahead and were lining up to fight.
Umar was refreshed and led his cavalry forward. Sure enough, he saw the Tang people in front of him.
There were people riding horses and camels, and the formation was a bit chaotic.
Umar said to himself that this was no wonder the Tang people. I heard that the Tang people snatched these camels and horses from the shepherds in the west.
Umar was about to send someone to ask, who is the general on the opposite side?
As a result, I found that the Tang man on the opposite side turned around and ran away without saying a word.
He just ran away without even saying hello!
"Chase!"
"Don't let Tang Ren escape!"
The big man-eating camel cavalry speeds up immediately!
After just a few steps of pursuit, the big eater noticed that the Tang cavalry were running towards both sides of the road and moved out of the way.
The true situation behind the Tang cavalry was revealed.
Umar looked at it,
"I originally wanted to use the infantry to form a formation to fight against my cavalry!"
"With just a few cars standing in front of us, can we stop my giant food cavalry?"
"Haha, there's not even a giant shield or a spear formation!"
After Umar glanced at the Tang army's formation, he shook his head disdainfully:
"The warriors of the gods rushed into the Tang Dynasty's army at the fastest speed,"
"The Tang people have gunpowder, warriors, be careful!"
The Dashi cavalry immediately urged the camels, increased their speed to the fastest, and rushed towards the Tang Dynasty's military formation!
Gunpowder is something that Big Eater is now familiar with.
The way to deal with it is also very simple, just rush up quickly and start a close-range melee with the enemy.
That thing was blown up in pieces, and if the two armies were mixed together, it would be useless.
The camels were not slow in running, and they rushed to the front of the Tang Dynasty's military formation.
The camel archers are getting ready to start shooting arrows with their big bows.
Suddenly there was a burst of green smoke from the opposite side, and at the same time there was a rumbling sound!
…
On the Tang Dynasty side, Cheng Wuting looked at the big cannibal rushing towards him and sneered:
"Field artillery riding and shooting,"
"Then one-half of the blunderbuss will be fired in turn!"
"fire!"
The field artillery fired first, and more than a dozen solid shells roared towards the charging cavalry.
At a distance of five hundred meters, the kinetic energy of the cannonball was very large. After crushing the body of the first cavalryman, the cannonball continued to fly backwards, hitting the second and third one one after another...
The formation of the giant cannibal cavalry split into dozens of holes in an instant, just like trying to separate the formation of the giant cannibal into dozens of pieces.
But this is impossible. After all, the kinetic energy of artillery shells is limited. Even within 500 meters, a single artillery shell cannot kill several cavalrymen.
The hole that was torn was immediately filled up again.
And Datang's artillery seemed to have only one chance to fire.
Horses can sprint at speeds of three to four hundred meters per minute.
If the camel is slower, it can rush in front of the enemy and kill the gunner before the artillery fires the third shot.
Yuchi Baolin had already retreated to the back along the edge of the artillery position.
I turned around and looked at the results of the first salvo of artillery fire through my binoculars.
The result was very disappointing to him, so he killed several people!
Why didn't those bowl-mouth blunderbuss move?
This is not far enough into the shooting range, right?
Also, when we were training on the island in Lingding Ocean, it seemed that this was not how field artillery was used to attack cavalry.
It seems to be launched in a parabola, which increases the hit rate of the cannonballs, and the cannonballs can bounce up and hurt people after landing...
It's just that the commander is in charge, so he shouldn't make any mistakes. Why should the commander be careful?
Yuchi Baolin walked towards Su Chen with some confusion.
Opposite the Dashi Commander Umer smiled slightly, and the Tang Dynasty's artillery did the same.
It looks powerful, but it's actually not practical.
At most, give the Tang people one more chance to fire!
Sure enough, just as Umar expected, the Great Eater rushed to within a hundred meters before the second salvo of Datang's artillery was fired.
This time it was even more powerful than the last time,
But this loss is still bearable,
Now let the Tang people tremble under the scimitar of the Great Food Cavalry!
Umar raised his scimitar and pointed forward, and the cavalry rushed towards the Tang army's position like a tide!
At the same time, the first batch of bows and arrows from the camel archer also fell from the sky!
The rain of arrows fell on the Wugang chariot in front of the Tang Army's position and on the soldiers of the Tang Army, making a clanging sound.
The difference is that the sound is louder when it falls on the car!
The soldiers of the Tang army did nothing wrong and caused no harm at all.
The soldier beside the gunner raised his shield to symbolically block the gunner, bent down to pick up the man-eating arrow and weighed it in his hand.
Then he stretched out his hand and made a gesture towards the back,
This means that the arrow cluster is not heavy enough to cause damage.
The armor of naval officers cannot be penetrated by ordinary feather arrows. If you want to cause damage, you must increase the weight of the arrow clusters and rely on kinetic energy.
However, generally no one does this. It is extremely weak, not to mention the shooting distance, and the damage is not high.
Seeing that the bow and arrow were useless, the camel-eating archer was not discouraged.
Seeing that the front line had already rushed in front of the Tang army's position, they simply put away their bows and arrows, drew out their scimitars and rushed forward together.
If you don’t believe it, you can’t kill a Tang man even with a machete!
At this time, the Tang army's crossbowmen also began to fight back.
But what puzzled the big cannibal was that the Tang people's bows and arrows ignored the big cannibal who had already rushed in front of them.
Instead, he tried his best to shoot in the distance, and the arrows fell towards the big man-eater behind him!
Umar glanced at the Tang Dynasty feather arrows flying overhead,
Not to mention, the bows and arrows of the Tang Dynasty had such a long range. They thought this was a safe distance for bows and arrows.
Unexpectedly, all the bows and arrows of the Tang people were shot behind him.
Umar quickly grabbed the buckler hanging on the camel!
Just when the big cannibal was less than fifty meters away from the Tang army,
A puff of green smoke came out of one end of those martial arts vehicles, and there was a roar!
Countless steel balls rushed out of the muzzle accompanied by high-speed and high-pressure airflow.
Then spread it in a fan shape towards the large food cavalry in front!
A burst of blood mist suddenly floated in front of the Tang army's formation!
Just as they were about to rush towards the Tang army, the large food cavalry suddenly rolled over and fell down in rows!
Both humans and camels were covered in blood and flesh!
Seeing the cavalry in the front row fall, the cavalry behind did not flinch, but rushed up as fast as they could!
They thought it was impossible for the Tang people to fire cannons anymore.
As a result, less than twenty meters forward, there was another roar, and another puff of smoke rose from the other end of each Wugang vehicle!
Each Wugang chariot has two bowl-mouthed guns.
Only one shot is fired at a time in order not to waste firepower.
I paused deliberately just now to wait for the big eater to gather together to increase the killing effect!
Yuchi Baolin, who had come to Su Chen's side, widened his eyes.
The power of the shotgun fired at close range is as terrifying as ever!
Two columns of cavalry in the front row of the Great Eater died almost instantly!
