Most of the Ganzhou Army saw this scene.
But they couldn't understand what that meant.
Only in the camp where the formation was set up could people clearly see the sword.
A deep dent appeared on the ground, and the tent affected by the sword light was even split into two. Where Luo Bairen was originally, there were only some charred pieces left, making it difficult to discern its original appearance.
The momentum of this sword shocked the entire audience!
The remaining alchemists only hesitated for a moment before turning around and running away. Most of their ranks were below that of asking questions and had no actual combat experience at all. The fear of being killed by a hundred swords was enough to destroy their will. Escape was the only thing on their mind at this moment. The only thing I could think of.
If you lose this battle, you still have a chance to come back, but if you die, there will be nothing!
They were alchemists, how could they be buried in such a remote and shabby place
Luo Qingqing did not pursue immediately, but took apart the dragon scales and slashed at the pillars that were no longer guarded.
The magic weapon was broken and the formation instantly lost its effectiveness.
Olina suddenly felt her body light up.
"Go and help Her Royal Highness the Princess, leave Nai Qing to me to take care of her!" Luo Qingqing shouted at the Dragon Girl.
The latter flew up again with his head held high, his heart full of indignation! The scars on her body were nothing to the dragon. What made Olina angry was that she fell into the hands of the Privy Council again. It would be fine if she was the only dragon, but there was a comparison person on the battlefield!
I am afraid of comparison in everything.
Compared to Chi Ling's flying posture, she seems a bit too naive.
What's more, Chi has always regarded herself as a real dragon, but she can't be considered a dragon even if she has wings. Out of resentment, Olina vented her anger on those enemies who blocked Ning Wanjun.
She raised her altitude, dived down again, and aimed at the crossbow machine and copper cannon placed on the high slope, spraying out billowing flames!
These defenseless long-range strike positions immediately exploded.
The gunpowder barrels exploded one after another, lifting the surrounding gun barrels and soldiers into the sky; the crossbows made of wood were carbonized and disintegrated in the flames, and the water tanks prepared in advance in the position were unable to cope with the rapidly spreading fire. For half a quarter of an hour, Less than two strike positions were declared collapsed.
Without the suppression of long-range crossbows and projectiles, the "bridge-building" troops advanced significantly faster. In order to prevent the river from changing its course, Qianzhi and others deliberately raised the ice surface several feet to form a slender arch, allowing water to pass under the arch.
When the ice bridge completely connected the east and west banks, Ning Wanjun was the first to rush onto the river beach.
A dark crowd on the opposite side gradually gathered from the top of the river embankment. Countless flags were connected together, looking like a copper wall.
If the previous recapture of Shenzhou was a small fuss, this was the first field battle Jinxia Army faced, and it was at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers. When ordinary people see this posture, their hands and feet will tremble and their breathing will be light. It's already pretty good if they can stand up straight.
It's a pity that the one who served as the vanguard was none other than the former Leizhou frontier army. They have followed Her Royal Highness in bloody battles, and they no longer regard numbers as the only key to measuring victory or defeat.
"You don't want to give up the river beach?" Ning Wanjun threw down the steel shield - although this thing had excellent defense, it would slow down her charging speed.
"It is a reasonable choice to attack halfway across the river." Qiuyue followed the princess closely. If His Highness dropped his shield, she would be His Highness's strong shield. "This beach cannot accommodate many people. As long as we can push us back to the shore, The soldiers who are still crossing the river will be in chaos."
"It's a good plan, but we have to see who the opponent is." Ning Wanjun pushed the joystick, leveled Suzaku's ax gun and pointed it straight ahead, "It's time to attack."
"yes!"
At this moment, a whistling sound came from the distance, and a dense rain of arrows was seen being thrown out from the enemy's formation, flying towards the river like locusts.
Ning Wanjun's choice was not to pick up the big shield again, but to control Suzaku to step forward with her feet!
More than twenty Xuanwu followed, raising their shields above their heads, forming a moving shelter area.
The same was true for the army that was the first to cross the river. Faced with the rain of arrows covered by the clouds, no one chose to retreat, and they followed closely behind the machine beast and launched a charge!
Unlike the Ganzhou Army, the weapons in the hands of these people were all pneumatic rifles. They did not need to be really close to the enemy to fight. The counterattack began the moment they stepped on the river bank.
Most of the arrows were blocked by the machine beasts and the ice wall of the living dead, while the remaining ones fell into the crowd. However, in addition to weapons, the Jinxia Army also made great improvements in defense. Every soldier wore a trousers. There is cloth armor with iron sheets, and a stamped iron helmet on the head. They benefited from the increase in mineral production after the Baisha Mine was put into Tianzong instrument mining, as well as the rapid progress in smelting technology. Although these armors are far inferior to plate armor and only protect important parts, as long as you are not unlucky, there is still no big problem in blocking arrows.
The situation on the Ganzhou Army's side is completely opposite. They only have swords, shields and cavalry in armor. The spearmen and archers only wear cloth clothes. They face the fire of air rifles. The distance of less than 200 feet is almost It falls down as soon as it is teased. Before the two armies came into contact, the soldiers at the front fell inexplicably. The people behind them had just filled up the vacancies, and they would follow suit. This kind of inexplicable battle damage caused certain fluctuations in the front line, which was originally neat. The queue shook like water waves.
What really tore apart the defense line was the bright red mechanism beast.
The mobilized Chinese army just had time to launch a hail of arrows, and Ning Wanjun had already reached the top of the slope. The gun barrel, which was as thick as an arm, swept left and right. Those who encountered it were no different from pieces of paper. They would fall to the ground with broken bones. In severe cases, the organs may burst. The soldier found that the spear in his hand against the cavalry was useless in front of the machine beast. When the two collided, the huge impact first affected the gunman - they screamed and scattered in all directions, and then were run over by the machine beast!
"Hold on tight, don't retreat! Anyone who retreats without permission will be killed!" Qi Duming shouted hoarsely on horseback, but the gap in the battle line that could not hold up was being torn open wider and wider.
With just over twenty mechanical beasts, the momentum of the attack on the phalanx was actually more astonishing than a thousand heavy cavalry. The forwards of the Jinxia Army are not known for their speed, and because of this, blocking the first wave of cavalry attacks can greatly relieve the pressure and disappear without a trace on the machine beast. Every step forward by these black monsters seems extremely solid, slow, but unstoppable.
Ning Wanjun uses an ax gun, and close combat is her best fighting method. However, this is not the case with other machine beasts—this batch of Xuanwu improved models are equipped with shield gun modules, with a large steel shield on one side and a large steel shield on the other. Heavy loaded air rifle. When its own weight is no longer a combat disadvantage, gun designs have become more and more unconstrained: the caliber has increased, the gas tank pressure has increased, the magazine capacity has doubled, and it is directly equipped with a compressor. Those who sense the air can complete operations such as shooting, compressing air, and changing ammunition by just moving their fingers. The power of the air rifle has also been improved by several levels.
As for the shortcomings, I am afraid that the only problem is that the firearms are placed on the side of the Xuanwu, making it inconvenient for the driver to aim and shoot. But when these bipedal monsters rush into the enemy formation, this shortcoming no longer exists.
