"The catapults, before and after the enemy infantry reaches the first line of Wugang vehicles, fire a volley of incendiary bombs at the trench position, using the largest incendiary bombs!"
Cheng Wuting also ordered: "Field artillery, stop bombarding the heavy armored infantry, and prepare to support Wankou Gun."
As soon as the order was conveyed, the big cannibals on the position suddenly cheered,
The big eater finally filled up several sections of the trench,
A group of cavalry rushed across the ditch and rushed towards the Wugang chariot.
The Dashi cavalry simply gave up mounted shooting, and each one carried a bomb and transformed into a cavalry grenadier, preparing to use the speed of the camel to throw the bomb behind the second Wugang vehicle formation of the Tang Army.
There was a roar of muskets and field artillery, and the cavalry fell down in rows.
However, there were still a large number of cavalrymen rushing forward in a swarm.
Just when the Dashi Cavalry rushed to the front row of martial arts vehicles and prepared to throw the bombs in their hands,
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In front of the Wugang vehicle, there was a violent explosion, and the entire land flew up!
Behind the trench, in the open space in front of the first row of Wugang vehicles, Su Chen buried thousands of kilograms of gunpowder!
All the gunpowder seized from Fahd's camp was buried in that open space at once!
The shock wave generated by a large number of violent explosions directly shook the Tang Army soldiers behind the second Wugang vehicle thirty meters away!
The explosion kicked up a large amount of soil and sand, which was thrown directly hundreds of meters away!
A large amount of smoke and rising dust caused the visibility in front of the Wugang vehicle to be less than one meter in an instant!
The entire battlefield came to a brief standstill!
The gunpowder smoke slowly dissipated, and within a few dozen meters in front of the Wugang chariot, there were broken bodies of large food cavalry everywhere, with human and camel bodies mixed together, everywhere!
Of the hundreds of cavalrymen who rushed forward, no one was spared!
Suleman looked up to the sky and roared: "Devil! Devil!"
"God, the people of Tang Dynasty are devils!"
"Keep on attacking! There is only one such explosion, so rush forward and dismantle the devil's iron cart!"
"I am a warrior of the gods and will not be intimidated by the fear of the devil!"
After a brief pause, the Dashi Cavalry launched another charge!
Cheng Wuting waved his flag: "Keep firing!"
Xue Rengui shouted at his hundred-power crossbow: "Change the arrows with heavy arrows! Aim at the cavalry missed by the gunners and shoot. We must not let them drop bombs into our position!"
Originally, the divine power crossbow had the longest range, but now it was used to shoot the closest cavalry.
It wasn't that Su Chen was wasting firepower, but that Dashi's heavy cavalry had already begun to charge forward.
Facing this kind of heavy cavalry covered in armor, the lethality of the bow and crossbow is limited.
Even the power of the divine arm crossbow is greatly reduced, so we can only rely on the powerful divine crossbow.
This kind of powerful crossbow, which relies on mechanical assistance to be cocked, is equipped with special arrows. As long as it hits the enemy, even if it is heavily armored, it will basically hit one arrow at a time.
There will never be a situation where you are hit by multiple arrows and still continue to charge!
With the support of divine crossbows, field artillery also began to bombard the cavalry.
Under this situation, it was very difficult for the Dashi Cavalry to break through the layers of firepower and throw the bombs in their hands onto the Tang army's position.
However, Dashi's heavy armored infantry suddenly found that no one was paying attention to them, so they followed the cavalry and quickly rushed to the front of the Wugang chariot.
The Dashi heavy armored infantry who rushed in front of the vehicle stood up against the Wugang vehicle with their large shields. Under the cover of the shield, they tried to find a way to destroy the Wugang vehicle!
"The giant crossbow aims at the heavy armored infantry in front of the Wugang chariot and fires gunpowder shells!"
Su Chen gave the order, and the impatient Marines who had been waiting for a long time hit the mechanism of the giant crossbow with their mallet, and the giant iron arrows as thick as their arms roared away with the sound of breaking through the air!
Dozens of extra large iron arrows fired from the mountain ridges on both sides directly penetrated the shields and heavy armor of the heavy armored infantry of the Dashi, pinning the infantry to the ground.
It looked shocking, but there didn't seem to be many direct hits. For the densely packed Dashi infantry who had rushed in front of the Wugang vehicle, these casualties were completely acceptable.
However, it was followed by another violent explosion!
Those extra-large iron arrows are actually hollow and filled with gunpowder, which is much larger than the average bomb charge!
?The dense and violent explosions close at hand produced powerful shock waves and countless high-speed shrapnel, instantly clearing the heavy armored infantry in front of the Wugang vehicle!
These giant crossbows and specially made giant arrow bombs are used by Su Chen to prepare for and deal with emergencies on the battlefield.
Although the range is far inferior to artillery, the advantage is that the accuracy is pretty good. Especially when a large number of giant arrow bombs are fired together and then explode together, they can clear a small area.
This Su Chen originally wanted to have a go at the enemy leader.
As long as Suleman enters the shooting range, Su Chen will guarantee a volley of fire and explosions, sending him directly to see the gods.
It's a pity that Suleman stayed outside the shooting range and did not give Su Chen a chance.
At this time, a message came from the rear: the hot air balloon was ready and ready to take off.
"Each hot air balloon carries ten kilograms of kerosene and the remaining load is bombs. Take off immediately and go directly to bomb Medina!"
The messenger immediately ran to the rear to convey the order.
Yuchi Baolin frowned and said: "Commander, if we bomb Medina now, what will be the effect? Why not bomb the enemies on the battlefield?"
Su Chen shook his head: "It takes a long time to take off and land a hot air balloon and it's very troublesome. There is only one chance to take off."
"Furthermore, the load capacity of hot air balloons is limited, and the throwing accuracy is extremely poor. It is difficult for them to be effective on the battlefield."
"It's better to let them bomb Medina and see the cannibal's reaction."
After saying that, Su Chen asked Hashim again:
"Hashim, you said that the Uhud camp has less than 10,000 troops, and the defenders in Medina only have 10,000 troops,"
"But look at it, the cannibal force we are facing today is almost 20,000, right?"
“Is Medina an empty city now?”
Before the war started, Hashim was called over by Su Chen, followed by Kang Deming who acted as his translator.
Hearing Su Chen ask this, Hashim hesitated and said: "Commander, I don't know what's going on?"
Yuchi Baolin said: "Forget it, Marshal, this guy is just a hostage of a small vassal country of Da Shi. There is no way he knows the military secrets of Da Shi."
Su Chen shook his head: "I think that even if Medina is not an empty city now, the number of defenders is very small!"
Yuchi Baolin frowned: "Why does the commander think so?"
While paying attention to the situation on the battlefield, Su Chen replied: "Because I don't think we can support too many troops with the resources around Medina!"
In this regard, Yuchi Baolin was noncommittal: "Commander, even if what you say is true, we don't have the strength to go to Medina!"
Su Chen smiled and said: "Aren't the thousand cavalry under your command not moving yet?"
