The firepower of Datang's side began to gradually fail to suppress the other side.
What's more, some Angsa soldiers have already reached the range of their own weapons and counterattacked against the Tang soldiers on the hillside.
This situation was something Chen Fukuan did not expect.
He originally thought that his own firepower could knock the enemy's head off the ground, and even more so that the enemy did not dare to take a step forward.
But who would have thought that the Angsa Army could unleash such a strong fighting force even though they knew they were outmatched. ??
And this is not because of anything else.
Just because these Ansa people also have their own pride.
You know, before meeting the Tang Dynasty, or in other words, before this moment.
When they fight, they always win with a crushing advantage.
Fire suppression is their winning capital that they are proud of.
But now they are the ones being suppressed. How could they not have anger in their hearts?
Not to mention the generals, even the soldiers below can't stand it.
They couldn't wait to rush forward immediately to see what their enemy looked like.
Seeing the opponent's desperate attack, Chen Fukuan couldn't help but look back in the direction of the military camp.
At this moment, his friendly troops were already halfway there, only a few hundred steps away from him.
Seeing this scene, Chen Fukuan gritted his teeth secretly.
He waved his saber again and said: "Get ready for heavenly fire and thunder!"
After hearing the order, the soldiers who were preparing to shoot alternately immediately raised their hands and touched their waists.
After the front row has fired, the same goes for the soldiers who are preparing to exchange with the brothers who follow.
Chen Fukuan swung the steel knife in his hand forward and shouted: "Throw it!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
With the sound of breaking wind, black skyfire thunders were thrown into the sky.
Then, like a meteor shower falling from the sky, it hit the crowd.
At the same time, the Angsa army side.
When they saw the enemy's firing stopped, they thought they had an opportunity and charged. The speed couldn't help but speed up a bit again.
But before they reached the top of the mountain, they saw such a scene.
Although the Angsa army had muskets, they had never seen the sky fire thunder.
At this moment, there were inevitably a few guys who were as curious as cats, squatting down to see what the enemy was throwing.
Look at the things that look like rocks and emit black smoke.
They also didn't quite understand what this thing was.
But the next moment, they knew.
I heard a loud banging sound in my ear.
The unlucky ones didn't even have a chance to dodge, and were sent directly into the sky by the shock wave generated by the explosion of the sky fire thunder.
But at the moment, there were not just one or two sky fire thunders under their feet, but thousands of them.
For a time, there were loud rumblings one after another on the hillside, and flashes of fire appeared one after another, allowing the Ansa army in the field to fully understand what it means to be crushed by the times.
And this isn't the end yet.
Some soldiers with strong strength even threw the sky fire thunder down the hillside halfway up the mountain.
At that time, Ansa's army halfway up the mountain was in serious trouble.
The sky fire thunder that exploded in mid-air was similar to the legendary goddess scattering flowers.
Often a skyfire thunder can blow up four or five enemies when it explodes.
And just like the previous situation, these enemies who were blown over by the sky fire thunder immediately turned into human-shaped rolling logs, rolling down from the middle of the hillside to the bottom of the mountain.
For a time, there were countless comrades who were knocked down the mountain with them.
And saw this scene.
The general Anza who was watching the battle at the foot of the mountain was dumbfounded.
this……
What is this?
Could it be that these are the gods, soldiers and generals that those barbarians talk about?
The deputy general next to him was a little anxious when he saw that his soldiers were killed and injured, but they didn't even touch the hillside.
He said directly to his general: "General, the enemy is by no means as weak as we imagined."
"Why don't we retreat first and then report to the commander-in-chief and let the commander-in-chief make some more plans..."
Just now he personally led his soldiers to charge and kill for a while.
He also saw with his own eyes how terrifying the opponent's weapons were.
Not only does it have a longer range than them, but its rate of fire is also infinitely faster than them.
In firearms wars, the speed at which bullets fly determines victory or defeat.
Under such circumstances, even if we can finally capture the mountain, we will probably suffer heavy losses.
But where can the general listen to him?
When he came to his senses, he gritted his teeth and said, "Why retreat?"
"If people knew that our army was defeated by a group of barbarians."
"What shame will we have in the future talking about our past glory?"
The general clenched his fist tightly and said: "I can capture the thirty-six cities of Sasanian Persia, but I don't believe that I can't capture this small mountain!"
Having said this, he paused and then said: "Go, hurry up and dispatch the artillery."
"In this charge, I want the artillery to cover the brothers."
Seeing him being so persistent, what else could the lieutenant general say?
He could only follow the opponent's instructions, first mobilize the artillery, and then order the soldiers waiting behind to wait for the artillery to bombard the opponent's position before charging.
But just when they had just formed their battle formation.
Suddenly, I heard a loud rumbling sound coming from the other side of the mountains.
Hearing this voice, the general subconsciously raised his head to look.
But it was better not to look at it. When he saw it, he almost knelt down on the spot.
At some point, countless bowl-sized fireballs appeared in the sky, flying straight towards them.
"Hidden! Hidden!"
Ansa has Firearms are no longer used for a day or two.
With just a glance, he knew that those were shells fired from artillery.
But it is really too late to avoid it now.
He had no choice but to push away the general standing next to him.
And the next moment, a cannonball landed squarely at his feet.
Boom!
The air wave generated by the explosion immediately exploded.
And the deputy general was no longer visible at the scene.
It was only then that the general came to his senses belatedly.
He looked up at the field and was dumbfounded.
At this moment, those soldiers in the field who were lucky enough to be outside the coverage of the artillery fire were fine.
At most, they were knocked off course by the air waves generated by the explosion.
The really pitiable ones are those who are unlucky enough to be within coverage.
The moment the cannonball hit the ground, the whole person was blown to pieces by the air wave.
And this is just the beginning.
On the hillside, Liu Qi kept waving the command flag, and the muzzle of the cannon continued to spray out deadly flames in accordance with his movements.
Pity the Ansa troops at the foot of the mountain. They didn't even see what the enemy looked like, so they were blown away by the flying shells.
As I said before, Li Chengqian paid attention to only one thing from beginning to end in fighting, the more the better.
If the artillery fire is not released, it will be enough. If it is released, it will be a saturation covering strike.
As for the Liangzhou Legion, they are even more like Li Chengqian's personal soldiers.
The way they fight has always been adhering to this tradition.
Cannonball missed?
Not afraid.
Just type it out.
The shell did not land at the expected location?
Not afraid.
One more round and it's over.
The bombardment of two hundred artillery pieces turned the place where the Angsa army was arrayed under the hillside into a Shura field.
