Chapter 193 White Armor shows off his evil ways(2/2)

Kurchan, carrying more than a hundred white armors, pushed six carts forward from the bottom of the trench.

Countless muskets were still raining down, and now that Jiannu was at the bottom of the ditch, the carriage could no longer provide shelter, so all the muskets fell on Jiannu.

However, it is still not enough to cause fatal damage.

Because these white-armored slave soldiers all wore triple armor.

Only the occasional hit by the muzzleloader can cause damage.

"Whoops!" Accompanied by a scream that ripped through the air,

A 30-pound closed-mouth bullet hit a white-armored soldier.

[Note: In the Ming Dynasty, 1 tael = 37.3 grams, 30 taels = 1.119 kilograms]

[Note: The 1.119kg bullet is a stone ball with a diameter of nearly 10cm]

Then there was a loud "bang", and the white-armored soldier's chest was instantly dented.

Due to its open-top design, the Tiger Crouching Cannon lacked air tightness, so the muzzle velocity of the projectile was not high, and its warhead kinetic energy was far from comparable to that of later flat-firing cannons.

But even this is enough to cause fatal damage.

It is indeed impossible for a stone lump of more than one kilogram to penetrate iron armor, cotton armor and chain mail continuously, but it is enough to dent the three layers of armor and transmit huge kinetic energy to Jiannu's body.

"Poof!" The white-armored Jiannu soldier who was hit opened his mouth and spat out a large ball of blood.

Then the whole person quickly collapsed to the ground, and there was no movement after falling to the ground.

However, Kurchan and the other white-armored soldiers did not even blink.

These white-armored Jiannu soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles have already seen too many lives and deaths.

None of the white-armored soldiers were emotionally affected, and the white-armored soldiers who followed up drew their large bows and shot a three-foot-long heavy arrow at the Ming army on the cannon platform.

Ordinarily, firearms such as blunderbuss should be more lethal than bows and arrows.

But in this local battlefield, Jiannu's bows and arrows gained a crushing advantage.
