Chapter 2149 Battle of Holy Light City 2(1/2)
The people of the Southern Empire have obviously seen this situation. For them, they have to rely on it to win. Their long-range attack can only be a few hundred meters at most. On land, a distance of several hundred meters may be very small.
It's useful, but on the sea, no, here is the river, but it often requires a distance of several kilometers. In such a place, their distance is of no use. For them, some things are not that simple.
Many times, these people have to rely on each other to achieve results. Otherwise, the final outcome of these people can only be to wait for destruction. Most of these people do not understand this truth. They think
The people in the Cao Family Trading Company must not be in such a good state of mind. Just looking at the navy with millions of people, those people may be scared to death, let alone fighting, but everything in front of them makes them scared.
They have all abandoned their own views. They are not scared to death, but each of you has lost the will to fight in your heart. From the beginning to now, it has only been an hour at most, but the Cao Family Trading Company
These ships have already rushed over. Except for the magic cannon on the city wall that poses some potential threats to them, there is basically nothing that can be achieved. The magic cannon also needs to cool down at this time.
For the empire, it is just a thing that is not worth mentioning. Such a thing cannot be too powerful at all. For them, it is okay to use such a thing to scare people, but the target becomes Cao Cao, who has experienced hundreds of battles.
If you are a businessman in the navy, these things are obviously not enough to see. If you keep using them, it will definitely be embarrassing, and you can see it now.
The second round of magic cannon shooting was much better than the first round. At least one shell hit the warship of the Cao Family Trading Company, killing the seven people on it, and also knocked out an artillery piece of the Cao Family Trading Company.
This kind of skill can be said to be pretty good. At least they caused the first casualty of the Cao Family Trading Company's navy in the inland river, but this casualty also came at a price, that is, several magic cannons worth tens of millions of taels of silver were killed.
Well, this seems to be a bit of a loss outweigh the gain for the Southern Empire. Moreover, a large crack has been opened in the city wall. At least there is no problem for people to put their arms in. Some old craftsmen are very clear about this.
If the city wall has always looked like this, it will definitely last for many years, but if there are cracks, even a small crack, it may greatly reduce the service life of the city wall. It may be like this now.
Yes, for now, there may be no problem with this crack. Pouring some mud or something from above can plug it up, but if it rains, especially the kind of heavy rain, the lime and other things will soon be blocked.
Things are blown away, and in the end the crack will get bigger and bigger. It will be impossible to repair it. The city wall of Holy Light City is still different from the city walls in other places. Every meter
The cost is very staggering, but for so much money, the defensive effect is not that good. This is a good proof right now. The cracks inside can prove everything. Everything inside seems to be so-called
It was made by a shoddy project, and the money exchanged for the items inside is probably enjoyed by those high-ranking officials. These damn guys are poaching the empire, really.
All this is the credit of 112 and 113. At this moment, they are already more than 300 meters away from the main fleet. This is already a very dangerous distance. The captain of 112 is the commander of these people. This guy saw
Looking at the few magic cannons left on the city wall and the distance between the main fleet and himself, he spat hard and said angrily, "Damn it. If we hadn't had so few people, I would have bombarded you long ago.
No more, order, move forward at full speed, catch up with the main fleet, and kill anything that gets in front of us." It is already a dangerous distance now, although if those magic cannons fire another round of bombardment, they will definitely be killed.
, there is no possibility of survival at all, but now is not the time to discuss this. Although the results of the battle are very important, saving one's own life is the most important thing. These things can still be distinguished for them.
, Wu En was also looking at them nervously on the command ship in the middle. He was afraid that the young men under him would be greedy one by one, which would be troublesome. There will be many wars in the coming war, as long as it is your head.
Still, are you afraid that you won’t have any merit in battle? That’s absolutely impossible. Not coveting these things now means that you can get greater merit in the future. Everything now is proved in this way.
, he was also relieved to see the two ships rushing up quickly. The soldiers under his command were not all a bunch of rough guys. At least they now had their own brains to tell them some strategic issues.
I guess they won't understand, but when you say losing money or making money, I guess they will understand. Seeing that they have caught up quickly, the second cruise has begun.
It can be said that Wu En's first attack brought a lot of results. Most of the warships were already injured. The naval generals of the Southern Empire looked at everything in front of them with some disbelief. Each of these warships looked at themselves.
The sailors above have straightened their chests one by one. Our ships are fewer than yours, and our people are even fewer, but what can you do to us? Look at our warships,
We are fighting in and out of your army. You have no choice but to chase and intercept us? This time, except for a few ships with some minor injuries, the other warships were even unscathed.
Warships can keep advancing at the same fighting speed as at the beginning. What do they want to do to their own people? That is absolutely impossible. You people are still very young. Each of these people are still
It's better to be honest, otherwise, you will all have some scars to take home with you in the end, which is also good for you. At least you can brag to others, saying that you have experienced the war, but I guess no one wants this bragging.
, the soldiers saw that the flagship had already sent out a semaphore. Due to the widespread use of telescopes, everyone on each ship had a lookout specifically looking at the direction of the flagship, so the order was spread much faster.
In the past, the communication from ship to ship was very different, and it was also much more accurate. All the ships had cleaned their gun breech and other things, and were preparing for the second cruise. This time they followed up.
The second difference is that the ships of the Southern Empire are no longer as fierce as they were at the beginning. Some of them ran away when they saw the warships of the Cao Family Trading Company approaching, which made the situation even more chaotic.
"Haha, look at our navy, how powerful it is. Damn it, what happened to so many warships? Why don't they just rest quietly? Just look at these people in the Southern Empire. Brothers, our navy
I don’t know how brave the brothers were in the Eastern Empire in the past. But now I have seen it. It is indeed okay for them to get 50% more salary than us." The Marines on the land were happy.
He said, they also admired the navy in front of them very much. Look at those densely packed ships. They all felt that their legs were shaking a little, but looking at the brothers in the navy, they were like
Training is the same as usual, and there is nothing to be afraid of. If they are afraid and do a slightly wrong operation, it will be a fatal injury. There is no such thing now. The salary of the Marine Corps is higher than that of the Army.
10%, which is 50% lower than that of the Navy. At the beginning, they all felt uncomfortable. They felt that all they needed to do was open a ship to transport them. Isn’t it simple to fire artillery? In fact, we
We can do it too. We also have good skills. For them, our Marine Corps' ability to fire artillery is also good. Why can you get half the salary more than us? But now they are convinced. If it were changed
If they were like them, they probably wouldn't have the courage to face so many enemies. This guy's words immediately spread among the Marine Corps. As an audience, they could feel the pride in their hearts.
Not for anything else, just because I and these people are in the same unit. Although the numbers are different, they all come from the same place. We are also the navy.
Every time a navy warship hits a big ship in the Southern Empire, these Marines will cheer, which also makes those on the warship greet them loudly. The navy and the army have always had a relationship.
It's not very good, and their relationship will only get better when they are on the battlefield. Now that I see someone applauding me for my performance, I am naturally more happy, but the Marines are applauding me.
The sound made the big bosses in Holy Light City feel very unhappy. This time Holy Light City dispatched all the troops. The army had been holding its breath for a long time. Now they saw that the army of Cao Family Trading Company was actually in
Those who laugh at them, yes, we are not very good at sea, but there is no problem in eating all of you. The Duke waved his hand, and a cavalry regiment of 500,000 people rushed out immediately.
Went to Holy Light City and spent an hour organizing the army here. Looking at the shining armor on their bodies, you can tell that this is a very powerful cavalry. Of course, just by looking at it, what is its actual ability like?
We don’t know, they may be like the Royal Guards Cavalry Regiment, but it can be seen that when it is really used, the entire army will be destroyed. This cavalry regiment does not have such a powerful origin, but it can be regarded as
They are one of the patron saints of Holy Light City, and the equipment they carry is also made with a lot of money by people from the Southern Empire. For them, they have long known the attack methods of the Cao Family Trading Company, but they think that the speed of their horses will
Very quickly, we can definitely rush in despite the rain of arrows. The Cao Family Trading Company's army relies on their artillery and serial crossbows. As long as we are fast enough, these are not a problem.
A lot of things can be done in one hour. The Southern Empire's cavalry regiment believes that their one hour is not wasted. They have already gathered their troops. A phalanx of more than 100,000 people has already been formed.
Okay, so many people may think that 100,000 people is just a number. In fact, in some middle schools on Earth, when school is over, we will see people everywhere. In fact, it is just a few thousand people. 100,000 people are theirs.
Twenty times more, it takes the area of several football fields to gather these 100,000 people. They are all wearing thick armor, especially some of the heavy cavalry in front. They are already doing
After testing, these things can definitely block the penetrating power of the Cao family's crossbows. As long as they can hold on, they can definitely rush in. As long as they rush into the army, their melee combat skills will be great.
Just like a child. When an adult faces a child, he can win no matter what he does. This is what these people in the Southern Empire think. Indeed, in their opinion, this method is correct.
, the Marine Corps of Cao's Trading Company did nothing else except place two rows of Juma, because they knew that they couldn't do anything in an hour, and ten meters behind the Juma were their three
When the team is formed, the old rules are still the same, one team is lying down, one team is kneeling, and one team is standing. As long as their crossbows run out of arrows, the people behind will immediately send a new crossbow.
This is much faster than changing people. Wait until the person in front feels tired, and then the person behind will replace the person in front. This method was invented by a soldier.
In the past, the Cao Family Trading Company's attack method was not like this. The people in front fired the serial crossbows in their hands, and then the people behind made up for it. However, a soldier felt that in fact, the soldiers in front did not
No matter how tired you are, there is no need to go to the back to rest. As long as the person at the back sends the serial crossbow up. Then the person at the back continues to prepare the crossbow arrows, so that the person in front can even fire hundreds of crossbow arrows.
You need to go to the back to relax. After all, if you keep killing people, your vision and other things will be affected. The same is true for the machine gunners on the earth. They can't shoot machine guns for an hour.
He couldn't bear it physically and mentally. It was because of this warrior's invention that the Cao Family Trading Company's output capability increased by 30% compared to the previous method. This person also received a commendation from Li Cong.
, a Tiger and Leopard Medal. Until now, many soldiers are thinking about improving their usual combat methods. Many things were discovered by themselves. These people are closer to the battlefield than those war experts.
Yes, we need to know a lot more. Many people have also embarked on such a healthy development path. Apart from these people, there is a super serial crossbow every twenty meters away. The crossbow arrows on it
The arrow is sharper, and the wood behind it is also much shorter. This is to allow him to go further and have more powerful penetration. Li Cong is also planning to replace all the crossbow arrows with steel ones, so that
If it does, the weight will increase. Except that it doesn't look like a gun, it will be almost like a firearm. Of course, the productivity on the earth will also increase.
These are some standard equipment. Whether it is the Army or the Marine Corps, they all do things this way. For them, this can achieve the greatest results, but for others, they also need other equipment.
The attack method is to use mortars behind the crowd. People in the Southern Empire also know these mortars. They originally thought that people from the Cao Family Trading Company would put such artillery in front of people.
They would be more dispersed, but this time I saw that they had no artillery at all, so they set up a dense formation, which made it easier to rush into the Cao Family Trading Company. However, this also has shortcomings.
That is, a shell will probably blow up all these people. This is absolutely not nonsense. This is absolutely a fact. There is no way to change the fact. Each of these people thinks that the Cao family
The people from the trading company came to the inland in such a hurry that they couldn't have so many artillery pieces. Even if they did come, there wouldn't be so many artillery shells. Who knows, the division commander of the Marine Corps now has a space in his hands.
The rings are not small, and tens of thousands of artillery shells came out directly. If these things can't entertain the people of the Southern Empire, then they are really incompetent. These guys looked at Cao Cao one by one.
Everyone in the family business thought it was a military exploit. In fact, they knew ten minutes later that this was their nightmare. It was not as simple as it seemed. The horn of charge soon sounded, and these Southern Empire cavalry immediately
They rushed toward the Marine Corps of Cao's Trading Company with great force. They didn't pay attention to the things around them at all. Everything around them seemed to be different from before, and they only had charge in their eyes.
"Haha, these guys are all bored to death. They are not so bored now. I just don't know if they can stand it. Let's ask two of our airships to go over and help them. Anyway, we
There is no need for so many airships. If you have time, tell the people below to provide them with a round of fire support." Wu En used his telescope to see the situation outside Holy Light City. Many people had seen the sight of thousands of horses galloping.
Yes, but this is the first time they have seen so many heavy cavalry rushing over so close. Do they think they can rush into the Cao Family Trading Company’s team with such a dense formation? They are so naive and really
I don’t know what to say about them. Maybe these people don’t know what to do. Now it’s better. Each of you needs a lesson. The navy below took the lead in opening the bubble at this time, because everyone
Some of the warships had fled, so the naval artillery on one side was idle. They immediately adjusted their angles and spoke before the Marine Corps' artillery. This also made people in the Southern Empire think that the Army had no artillery.
Well, if there were any, why would they use the artillery on the ship to support them? There must be no such thing. They all recognized this situation self-righteously. They thought that these people must not have the ability to resist them. When the time comes,
Let them all see what they are capable of. They must capture these people. Their slogan is not to let the people from the Cao family business go back. This is their tomb. Although the artillery fire caused thousands of their people to fly away, none of them were
I don't care, there are no undead people in a war. What does it matter if 500,000 people die and a few thousand people die? I can't see anything at all, and I don't care about this matter.
Just when they all thought that the people of the Cao Family Trading Company were not scary at all, suddenly they saw a lot of rockets coming out from behind the soldiers of the Cao Family Trading Company in front of them. Those things actually shot up into the sky. Carefully,
People even counted them, damn, there were nearly two hundred of them. Are these all mortars? Is this thing really that powerful? Even the Cao Family Trading Company's own soldiers felt that this was impossible.
The thing is not as powerful as the navy's heavy artillery. If the navy's artillery can be pulled over, it may be useful, but the thing in front of me really doesn't understand whether it is that powerful, but they will soon
You can see how powerful this thing is. It can also be seen here that the cavalry regiment of the Southern Empire is really good. They can see the black spots coming towards them with the naked eye, but no one avoids them.
Yes, it's not that they don't hide, but that they simply can't hide. The people around are so crowded that many people find it difficult to breathe. Under such circumstances, some of the shells will directly hit these people.
His head exploded, and shrapnel flew everywhere, killing a large number of people around him. On earth, the lethality of mortars is only a dozen people at most, because their caliber is not high after all.
How about it, but here, there are more than 30 people. This is still a direct kill. As for those indirectly, it is even more powerful. The horses have never seen such a thing at all, and they fell down directly.
They were all running around in panic, without any sense at all. They just wanted to run out quickly, regardless of whether their master was under their feet. Horses killed many more people than mortars.
To be continued...
