"Pass my order, part of the siege troops will withdraw, encircle the north and south, and chop these dogs into pieces for me." Meng Xiang got up, he gritted his teeth and shouted in a deep voice.
"This... first seat, isn't this appropriate..."
The people around him were stunned. Chief Meng’s order was incomprehensible. Are these hundreds of cavalry more important than attacking the city? He actually asked the brothers who were attacking the city to turn back and encircle them. Wouldn’t that be giving up halfway?
"Send the order!" Meng Xiang shouted.
Everyone had no choice but to raise the black star and crescent flag to convey the order. The attack on the city was at a critical juncture. Suddenly, they heard the order from Chief Meng to retreat. Li Yunqing and others, who were soaking in blood, cursed repeatedly. However, they had to allocate manpower to retreat and contain them.
.Two teams of religious bandits cooperated with Meng Xiang's two thousand elite religious troops from the north and south, trying to contain more than two hundred cavalry in the center of the battlefield.
Lin Jue witnessed all this and understood that his plan worked. His purpose was to attract the siege troops to attack his small group of cavalry and reduce the pressure on the city. Now the opponent mobilized thousands of people to encircle the city from the north and south.
The pressure will be reduced a lot. The city will be safe for a while. The religious bandits who are constantly attacking the city will be quickly cleared. This is exactly the effect I want. However, I have once again fallen into a dangerous situation.
.
"Kill!" Lin Jue pointed his sword to the east, which was exactly where Meng Xiang's two thousand skitarii were. It seemed like he was hitting a hard nut, but this was the most direct direction to break out. If he broke out to the south,
, you will still be entangled and unable to leave the battlefield. Instead, fight directly to the east. There are no more bandits behind you. You can directly pass through the enemy camp, return to the road, and rush into the trees and dunes of Bolangsha. That is
The most direct way to escape. Although, you have to face the elite skitarii around Meng Xiang.
"Kill!" The cavalrymen also understood the danger of the situation. Their eyes turned red and they roared loudly. More than two hundred cavalrymen made a diagonal turn and charged towards the skitarii.
"Hold it to me, even to the death. Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed without mercy." Meng Xiang roared, and the big ring knife in his hand clanged.
The Skitarii also let out a loud shout and rushed towards the horse's head. The Skitarii were different from ordinary believers in that they were equipped with weapons and weapons, and they were all warriors selected from the congregation. Some of them were
Meng Xiang brought people from Yingtian Mansion. These people are senior pirates and are the backbone of the force. They serve as the structure, plus the ruffians, desperadoes and some young and loyal believers in the congregation.
, the team formed still has considerable combat effectiveness. It was precisely because Meng Xiang organized thousands of backbones that he had the confidence to launch an attack on Yang Wu. Otherwise, with just a scattered mass of ordinary believers, that
It is absolutely impossible to restrain it and nothing can be done.
There was very little room for the cavalry to move. After turning a corner, the horses were already engaged with the Skitarii before their speed picked up. This greatly weakened the impact of the cavalry. At this moment, Lin Jue also
He no longer had any scruples. He had already hung the long knife on the saddle and held two bastard boxes in each hand.
"Boom!" After two roars, seven or eight skitarii fell to the ground groaning with blood all over their bodies.
"Devil, this is the devil's method." Someone shouted in surprise.
"What devil? That's a firearm. I forgot that this thief has a firearm. Don't be afraid, the firearm cannot be fired continuously. Kill!" Meng Xiang shouted loudly.
The religious bandits swarmed up and the two sides fought in one place.
Two hundred cavalry hugged a group, and the outer circle held long knives while killing and walking. The inner circle of cavalry fired all the remaining crossbows into the surrounding crowd. In front, Bai Bing was like a female tiger, frantically slashing and killing the enemy, but their
Although the killing method was terrifying, it still seemed inferior compared to Lin Jue.
Meng Xiang lived his life with Lao Huangli in his arms. He had no idea that the firearm in Lin Jue's hand was no longer what he had seen before. The tortoise box in Lin Jue's hand was already a third-generation improved product. The added functions were not many.
Only the charging system was improved, and a spring-rotated magazine was added to the side, which can hold eight powder capsules. Don't underestimate this small improvement, but it greatly enhanced the firing speed of the tortoise box. Previously, it was launched
After that, the gunpowder bag needs to be filled manually. Now you only need to turn the round magazine to fit the gun chamber and then fire it to achieve the effect of continuous firing.
You must know that this small improvement is nothing at all when the high-precision materials and technologies of later generations are mature. But for Lin Jue, it can be said that he has racked his brains. The key issue is whether the materials are suitable for continuous launch.
The material requirements for the tortoise box are completely different from those for separate intermittent launch. If you are not careful, the tortoise box will not be able to withstand the continuous pressure and will explode in your hands. Da Zhou's smelting technology simply cannot meet the requirements.
Finally, Lin Jue found out about the meteorite falling from the sky a few years ago in Xishan, Beijing. After visiting, he found the lump of meteorite that fell from the sky in the yard of a house. Finally, he bought it back at a high price.
After testing, they fully met the requirements, and then several more tortoise boxes were built. These were simply too precious for Lin Jue. With the new ones, the old ones could be given away without any problem. Of course, except for the purpose of framing.
Now the two bastard boxes in Lin Jue's hands can be fired continuously, eight shots in a row, and the bow can be fired left and right. On the battlefield in the cold weapon era, this is no different than a god coming down to earth.
Boom, boom, boom, boom! The continuous roars on the battlefield were so loud that people's ear drums were buzzing. If the war horses were not trained to be frightened and tested their composure with the sudden beating of gongs and drums, these war horses would have
I am afraid that everyone will be frightened and run around. Even so, some horses are still going crazy. They almost bring the knights into the enemy crowd. But compared to the shocking effect and lethality brought by the tortoise box,
In other words, it can only be regarded as a slight flaw in the white jade.
Lin Jue had already taken on the role of opening the way. With both guns firing, the skitarii blocking the way fell to the ground. Bai Bing and others next to him had been reduced to the role of last-ditch and protection. Faced with such ferocious firearms,
Who among the Skitarii taught the bandits who dared to stand in their way. When they saw the black smoke-emitting firearms pointed at them, they immediately ran around desperately for fear of being beaten until their whole bodies were bleeding. Some of them relied on themselves to attack the Holy Cult.
He was loyal and might have the blessing of magical body protection. He actually dared to rush to Lin Jue's horse head shouting the slogan "The Holy Duke's Greatest Magical Body Protection". Of course, Lin Jue would not be polite, and fired several shots from close range.
, immediately beat several faces under the black robes to pieces. It is estimated that even their parents don’t recognize them.
The tragic death of these idiots who tried their own methods only increased the fear of the Skitarii. It would be normal to kill them with swords, but if their entire faces were beaten off, this was like encountering a demon.
Although Meng Xiang yelled at the top of his lungs and ordered them to come forward and encircle them, the frightened Skitarii and the instructors subconsciously avoided the imminent Death God. Although they also shouted and charged, they consciously avoided the front of the team, and
Choose to harass on the flanks and rear. But to stop the cavalry squad, you can only block their forward direction. Even if you succeed in harassing the flanks and rear, you will not be able to stop the entire cavalry squad.
A strange scene occurred on the battlefield. Lin Jue took the lead. The cult bandits in front took the initiative to avoid it, as if they were making way for a passage. Relying on the power of one man and two guns, the cavalry team fought a bloody path and rushed out of the guard bandits.
The formation of the army was thin. When there was no one in front, but an empty and chaotic battlefield, Lin Jue let out a sigh of relief.
In fact, his gunpowder bag is almost empty. The leather bag on his waist is mostly empty. If the opponent is more ruthless and less afraid of death, it is very likely that he will surround his cavalry after the ammunition is exhausted. But obviously, this
It's just an assumption.
"Don't be reluctant to fight, rush out." Lin Jue turned his horse around, fired a random shot at the side, and shouted sternly.
How could the cavalry dare to stay? The rear was actually full of danger. A small group of cavalry had been cut off and surrounded, and was killed by the bandits. The number of casualties along the way had exceeded forty or fifty. The road ahead was now open.
No one dared to linger. The cavalry galloped past Lin Jue with their horses and whips raised.
Lin Jue and Bai Bing rode their horses and stood sideways, the tortoise boxes in their hands kept roaring, forcing back the bandit who was trying to cut off the cavalry. When the last cavalryman rushed out of the bandit formation covered in blood, Lin Jue was completely relieved.
.
"Who dares to come up and take a shot?" Lin Jue held up two tortoise boxes and asked with a loud laugh towards the bandits who were more than ten steps away.
The religious bandits were jostling each other, and no one dared to come forward.
Meng Xiang yelled and cursed from behind: "Get it on me, get it on me quickly. You bunch of bastards, how dare you disobey orders."
Lin Jue laughed loudly and shouted: "Meng Xiang, you have the guts to come within twenty steps in front of me. What kind of hero can you be if you hide behind others? Don't you Qingjiao have the magical power of body protection? Come and try my firearms
Let’s see if it’s your body-protecting magic that’s more powerful, or my firearms.”
Meng Xiang cursed loudly: "Lin Jue, I swear that I will cut your body into thousands of pieces, crush your bones and spread your ashes."
Lin Jue laughed loudly and said: "What's the use of talking nonsense? Your oaths are all nonsense. You are just a pirate. How can I be a hero? Hai Dongqing is a defeated general under me, let alone a little guy like you."
Well, Haidong Qingdu has become the leader of the Qing Sect and calls himself a Holy Duke, so why can’t I still be the Monkey King? It’s a pity for these people, look at how many people have died, it’s all your fault.
"
Meng Xiang didn't know how to answer, so he just cursed loudly. Lin Jue pointed his gun at Meng Xiang from afar, and Meng Xiang subconsciously ducked to avoid it.
Lin Jue laughed and said: "Idiot, you know how to be afraid. It's a pity that you are too timid and dare to hide far away, otherwise I will blow your head off with one shot. You don't dare to come near, and neither will I."
I'm talking nonsense to you, I'm leaving. Listen up, you can't capture Yangwu County, unless you want to all die here. Don't believe in the lies of the Qingjiao, and the imperial army will soon be
Come, if you don’t run away, you will all die. Wake up, there is some kind of temple in the sky over there. Your temple is your home, and the place where your wives, children, parents are reunited is the temple of peace and happiness. Don’t die.
Without a burial place, I realized that I had taken the wrong road and followed the wrong person."
Lin Jue said loudly, turned his horse's head, galloped forward, and chased the cavalry in front.
