Yin En looked at the wooden gun in Liu Xing's hand, shook his head and said: "If something like this wants to exert its due effect, it must be fast, accurate and ruthless, otherwise it will be no different from an ordinary wooden stick.
, so Liu Xing, you should focus on defense later, and don’t take the initiative to use this wooden gun to fight others in close combat unless absolutely necessary."
Liu Xing nodded, but in his mind he remembered the spear he had used in Laleye City, so Liu Xing felt that he still had experience in using this kind of long weapon.
Of course, Liu Xing is very self-aware, so he knows that this character card of his is not suitable for close combat with the enemy. Because the values such as physical fitness and strength are a bit low, he will be at a disadvantage when making confrontation judgments.
At this moment, Liu Xing saw a group of people carrying a bunch of bottles and cans, and they all looked cautious.
Is this baked jade?
Baked jade is also a characteristic firearm of the island country. It can be said to be a simplified version of a hand grenade, because it is a pottery filled with gunpowder. It explodes the pottery to produce fragments to kill the enemy.
However, because the quality of gunpowder in this period was average, and the pottery could not be completely sealed, the damage range of baked jade was very limited. Unless you were very lucky, it could only cause some skin wounds to the enemy; but baked jade was exploding.
The momentum is quite large at that time, so it can quickly reduce the enemy's morale on the battlefield.
Therefore, in Liu Xing's view, Baolaoyu is a lower-level substitute for artillery, because the artillery of that period was mainly for scaring people. Even when dealing with enemies in dense formations, they could kill two or three people with one shot, but this
The tragedy of two or three people can have a strong visual and psychological impact on the people around them, so when artillery first appeared, a few people on the opposite side were often killed with just a few shots, and the remaining dozens of people were killed.
All ran away.
Of course, although artillery is a good thing, it is a big toy that the island country at that time cannot afford. After all, making an artillery requires a lot of copper, and the production process also requires very high craftsmen. As long as there is
A slight deviation can easily blow up the barrel; what's more, once the cannon fires, it's not a lie, because the iron used to make the cannonball is not a small amount, and recycling it is also very troublesome.
So at this time, the island country thought of making baked jade as a lower-level substitute for artillery. However, this baked jade is really too low-level. After all, its explosion range is too small, and the way of using this thing is like throwing.
It's a shot put, so it's pretty good if it can be thrown more than ten meters.
"This thing is a bit underworld." Yin En said with his hands on his hips: "When I used to play Total War, I thought this Baked Jade was so powerful, but I found that it was as fierce as a tiger in one operation, and its performance was zero.
Fifth, the explosion was so lively that the opposite side could not lose many people at all, and as soon as the infantry on the opposite side approached the Bailaoyu throwing team, the morale of the Bailaoyu throwing team would be directly wiped out.
They started to be defeated in seconds, and they couldn't even compete with muskets or bow ashigaru."
Liu Xing deeply agrees with this.
As an old fan of the "Total War" series, Liu Xing has naturally played Shogun, so when Liu Xing saw the Baolaoyu throwing team for the first time, he thought that this team that played with firearms would definitely be able to completely explode.
Those cold weapon troops, but the few teams of baked jade throwing teams they recruited did not have much effect, and were all scared away by a group of cavalry from the opposite side that circled back.
"But as far as the current situation is concerned, this thing can be regarded as a good throwing weapon, and don't we still have a group of Bayaki here? Now we can turn them into bombers."
Speaking of Bayaki, Liu Xing realized a problem, that is, after the sudden change in Mount Fuji, he seemed to have never seen Bayaki again.
Liu Xing quickly started to contact Lendl, but Lendl didn't respond at all.
Are Lendl and Bayaki not here?
Liu Xing looked around and saw many ghouls and deep divers, but he didn't see Bayaki.
After thinking about it carefully, Liu Xing knew why such a situation occurred. To put it bluntly, Bayaki, as a mythical creature that can fly freely, has great advantages in today's battlefield. After all, whether it is a musket or a crossbow, it is very powerful.
It's difficult to cause effective damage to them, so Bayaki really disrupts the balance a bit.
What's more, at this time, Lendl used the name of the King in Yellow to pull off the tiger's skin and let many Bayakis near Mount Fuji join its ranks. This allowed Liu Xing behind Lendl to have a certain amount of air control.
This is naturally unfair to other players... More importantly, the mastermind behind all this must know that behind Lendl is Liu Xing, and behind Liu Xing is Ao Guanhai, so it did this deliberately
To suppress Liu Xing, his future enemy.
Therefore, Liu Xing feels that it is pretty good that he can still stand here with his beard and tail intact.
"The musketeers will be responsible for these baked jade. What you have to do later is to find the right opportunity to throw these baked jade at the enemy. But before that, you have to weigh the weight of the baked jade in your hands to make sure that you can probably throw it.
No matter how far you go, don't hurt your own people, and of course be careful not to hurt yourself."
As soon as Shimazu Nakano finished speaking, a man carrying a musket stood up and said, "I think these baked jades are still not suitable for our musket team to be responsible for throwing, because we can't throw them too far at all, so with
The range of the musket is not comprehensive at all. We can't give up our range advantage and run in front of the enemy's melee troops just to lose a few baked jade, right? This is simply looking for death."
Another man carrying a musket also stood up and said seriously: "Yes, if we get into a suitable position to throw baked jade, it means that the melee troops on the opposite side can drag us into melee in two or three seconds.
At that time, we don't have to fight at all. After all, there is no comparison between these so-called wooden guns and the real guns on the opposite side. So I think the melee troops should be responsible for throwing the baked jade, first catching the opposite side by surprise, and then
You can take the opportunity to rush over and beat up the drowned dog."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone praised it.
Therefore, Shimazu Nakano could only hand over the baked jade to those responsible for the charge, hoping that they could take the lead.
However, Liu Xing felt that these baked jade may just be heard, because there are not many ordinary people in the vanguard of the Wu family faction, either those resurrected ancestors, or mythical creatures, so the baked jade was produced after the explosion.
Whether ceramic shards can cause skin trauma is still open to question.
But it's better than nothing.
Liu Xing thought as he checked his single-shot firearm to prevent it from malfunctioning on the final battlefield. You must know that old-fashioned firearms like this are prone to problems. After all, there was nothing at that time.
Industry standards, so even if the same type of firearm is made by the same craftsman, there will be visible differences in the finished product.
At this moment, Liu Xing suddenly felt that the surrounding temperature seemed to have increased a lot, because he began to sweat.
It seems that the ring of fire is not far from here.
Liu Xing was definitely not the only one who realized this, so Shimazu Nakano quickly stood up and said: "It seems that the ring of fire is getting closer, so please take your positions and be ready to attack at any time!"
As a result, there was a lot of excitement.
Originally, the number of warriors planned by the samurai faction was only about 1,000, and the reserve force was only over 500, because the terrain of Mount Fuji did not allow too many people to fight at the same time.
However, in order to show their momentum, various forces of the Wu family brought many people to Mount Fuji. For example, the Sawada family where Liu Xing and others were located even sent out their entire force, but most of them came to support the scene, which is the so-called logistics staff.
...For example, there are thousands of guards around the command headquarters to ensure that they will not be suddenly attacked by public factions, and these guards can also be regarded as logistics personnel.
As a result, now, most of the logistics personnel have also obtained weapons and been organized into combat troops. Only some real old, weak, sick and disabled are still doing logistics work, so the combat troops of the Wu family directly exceed 10,000 people.
And this sudden increase of more than 7,000 people raises a big question, that is, who will command them?
In many companies, it is normal for one manager to be responsible for more than ten ordinary employees, or even dozens without much problem, just like in school, as long as there is one monitor, he can control the whole class.
But on a rapidly changing battlefield, one officer certainly cannot effectively command so many people. For example, Big Brother in the early days of World War II had serious command problems due to the lack of middle-level officers. The result was repeated battles.
defeat.
The same is true for the current Wu family faction. Many people don't know who they should listen to, so when they reorganize their formation, it becomes a mess, just like a vegetable market.
Seeing this situation, Shimazu Nakano was also helpless, because there was not much time left for the samurai faction, and there was still free time to reorganize the organization.
Fortunately, the Shimazu family's "people" who had been waiting for a long time were all battle-hardened, so when they saw behind them a disorganized team with no formation at all, they stood up and began to order troops and generals.
The members of the Wu family faction who were originally huddled together were divided into several parts, and then told that they only needed to rush forward with the people in front.
As for retreat, are you kidding me? There is no retreat at all?!
Of course, long-range troops only need to form a long horizontal snake formation. Of course, those who use muskets and single-shot firecrackers need to stand on both wings to be ready to go around to both sides to launch an effective attack on the enemy...
Although it is also possible to start the queue shooting mode with colleagues from the public faction.
Soon, the battle will begin again.
Because of the existence of the ring of fire, the public faction and the Wu faction reached a rare tacit understanding. They started to adjust their formations at almost the same time, and at about the same time, they put forward a look that was pretty good... Well, this is just like the school.
The situation is similar when holding a sports meeting.
Then when the charge started, Liu Xing found that his formation was suddenly in chaos.
It's really a mob.
Fortunately, the public faction was also very tight-lipped, otherwise Liu Xing would really have to consider whether he would have to flee when necessary to save his own life.
At this moment, a series of explosions sounded on the front line. Needless to say, those baked jade began to show their power.
The result was just as Liu Xing had thought before. Although the baked jade sounded very loud, the points on the force contribution list did not change at all. This showed that the public faction did not reduce its members because of the baked jade.
At this time, the public faction also threw out their own baked jade. As a result, Shimazu Nakano said that his side's "vanguard troops did not change their expressions and directly rushed into the enemy's position with the exploding baked jade and began to kill everyone."
Although these baked jade did not achieve any results, the broken pottery fragments still caused cries of pain on the front line. Because "little soldiers" like Liu Xing wore straw sandals, they might step on pottery fragments.
Experience the feeling of coolness in your heart. Of course, the heart here refers to the soles of your feet.
"Let the musketeers start outflanking them. If you encounter the musketeers of the public faction, remember to arrange a three-stage shooting formation first."
As soon as Shimazu Nakano finished speaking, Lendl's voice suddenly appeared in Liu Xing's ears, "Uh, Liu Xing, can you hear it? I received your message before, but because I was killed by a group of empty ghosts,
I got stuck, so I didn’t have time to reply to you.”
Empty ghost?
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and suddenly realized that the "Mount Fuji" under his feet might not be Mount Fuji, but the set created by Nyarlathotep's clone. Therefore, Mount Fuji was not changed, but that his group was changed.
Teleported here in an instant without any sound.
Perhaps this was a large-scale teleportation spell, so Rendell, who flew too high, was not teleported directly, but was stuck in the cracks of space, and was attacked by a group of empty ghosts.
Sure enough, Lendl said that he was trapped in the gap of space. For a while, he didn't know how to leave this ghost place. In other words, Lendl didn't know which direction he should break through in order to join Liu Xing.
.
As for the Bayakis that Lendl had already persuaded, they were no longer with Lendl at this time, but Lendl could not contact them, so after thinking for a moment, Liu Xing decided to let Lendl find anyone at random.
To break through in the direction, it would be great if they can join up with themselves when the time comes. If not, it won't be a big problem. Anyway, Lendl alone can't help much.
