Gray dark clouds still cover the sky, like heavy lead, weighing on everyone's hearts.
The whole world was completely silent, except for the sound of fine raindrops hitting the grass.
The soldiers on both sides were all exhausted from fighting, and they didn't care much. They just sat in the black muddy water, motionless. They let the sewage soak into their armors and soak through their clothes.
Many soldiers looked at the sky angrily and secretly cursed this yinhun-like weather. When will it end?
But more people showed an indifferent look.
They had lost hope in the weather, and even didn't care about everything that happened to them, but they still held their weapons tightly in their hands.
"Bang~!"
A dull war drum sounded.
On the silent battlefield, the dull and distant sounds spread little by little and reached everyone's ears.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
The war drums sounded one after another, and the beat of the drums increased from slow to fast, and the drumbeats became more and more intensive.
People turned their heads indifferently and looked in the direction of the sound.
I saw a tall trumpeter standing on the wall of Prisca.
He stepped on the parapet, raised the huge conch horn, raised his nose to the sky, and blew the bugle with all his strength.
"Gu...uh..." The mute sound of the bugle spread throughout the battlefield.
Under the city of Prisca, more than 20,000 soldiers lined up in a neat square formation, standing proudly. Let the rain wash away their armor.
Amor and Hadou were dressed in bright silver armor and rode a white horse slowly past the formation. His bright eyes swept over every soldier in the front line.
Wherever Hadu went, soldiers bent their backs and raised their weapons in salute.
Hadou walked to the end of the team, turned his horse's head and looked at the more than 20,000 soldiers solemnly in front of him. Their figures became blurred in the rain, and finally merged into one like the curtain between heaven and earth.
Hadou suddenly had the illusion that his troops seemed to be countless, stretching to the horizon in the distance, and there were millions of them.
Following the direction of his own flag, he swept away, sweeping across the world, becoming invincible.
But then the illusion disappeared, revealing the real military formation in front of him.
Realizing this strange feeling, Hadou couldn't help but sigh slightly, and an expression of unwillingness and regret flashed across his face.
He does not have that much strength, although that is what he has always dreamed of.
He worked hard all his life and tried his best, but he could only piece together a team of 70,000 people. It was not as many soldiers as the Grand Duke Rumain deployed in a border province.
At this moment, staring at the blurry coalition camp in the distance, Hadou hoped from the bottom of his heart that the person sitting with half a million troops was himself.
Rather than the headstrong Duke Julian who only knows brute force, he can mobilize almost all the war capabilities of the Ruman Empire at will.
What's so great about that little...bastard?
Grandma, isn't it because he has a good father?
In front of him, he fought and lost again and again. He also fought and lost many times under the city of Markhan. But he still remembered eating rather than fighting.
If it were another general, he would have been sent to a military court long ago~!
"If I have half a million troops, not 300,000, no, 200,000, only 200,000~!" Hadou murmured in a voice that could only be heard by himself: "I can sweep across the entire continent, with my
A lifetime to build an ideal country in your mind."
A hoarse voice behind him said in a low voice full of youhuo: "If you are willing, all of this will happen. Everything will happen." The voice was like talking in a dream, but it seemed to have a strange magic power.
, seems to be able to awaken the devil hidden deep in the heart.
Hadu suddenly turned around, his eyes flashing with a captivating light, staring closely at the man in gray robe behind him.
The man in gray robe looked at him coldly as well.
The gazes of the two people shot out countless fires in the air, but no one looked away.
After another moment, Lou Mang slowly disappeared from Hadu's eyes.
He shook his head and said word for word: "I believe in my own power~!"
"Hahahahaha" The man in gray robe seemed to have heard the funniest joke. He raised his head and let out a series of harsh laughter. The hood on his head vibrated slightly and almost fell off in the next moment.
.
When the guards nearby saw that the man dared to laugh at the most heroic general in their minds, they all showed expressions of resentment.
They unanimously pressed their swords with their hands and took a step forward. They planned to kill the guy of unknown origin on the spot.
General Hadou waved slightly.
The group of personal guards had no choice but to retreat angrily. At the same time, they cast sharp, warning eyes at the gray-robed man.
The man in gray robe didn't seem to notice anything and continued to laugh.
Hadou smiled magnanimously and then rode out again.
He came to the front of the formation, and then with a clang, he pulled out the long sword from his waist, then pointed hard at the allied camp to the north, and shouted loudly to his team: "Brothers, who is in Abdwa right now?"
For the sake of power, the vicious woman of Germany actually colluded with the empire’s archenemy, Archduke Rumain, and betrayed her country. Can we agree?”
"No~!" All the soldiers raised their weapons at the same time and shouted angrily.
"Those foreigners came to our land, under the banner of so-called peace, and wanted to rob our land, our women, and our property. Can we agree?" "No~!" A group of soldiers said again
Roared angrily.
"Our brave Almohad people have never lowered our heads in the face of millions of demons. Today, will we lower our noble heads to those enemies, those despicable hypocrites?"
"No~!
Never…”
"Yes, we will never~!" General Hadou vigorously waved the sword in his hand and roared angrily: "Brothers, for the sake of our hometown and our relatives, drive away all invaders~!"
"Roar~!" The soldiers raised their weapons and roared loudly, then shouted: "For hometown~!"
"For my loved ones~!"
"Drive away the invaders~!"
"Attack~!"
"Attack~!"
"…………"
Angry shouts came and went, resounding throughout the world.
Hadou smiled with satisfaction and then slashed forward with the long sword in his hand.
The flag of the Chinese army immediately waved vigorously, and then pointed forward...
Immediately, an officer drew his saber and shouted angrily: "The general has an order, the whole army moves forward~!"
The order was passed down layer by layer like an echo.
"All troops, advance~!"
"Advance the entire army~!"
…go ahead…"
Amidst the officers' orders, the soldiers shouted loudly.
They clenched the weapons in their hands, marched in neat steps, and marched bravely towards the coalition camp in the north.
The military boots on his feet stomped heavily into the muddy water, splashing countless dirty water splashes.
The man in gray robe looked at the soldiers marching neatly through the muddy water to kill the coalition forces without hesitation. He smiled lowly, looked at Hadou and asked: "Why don't you wait any longer? Wouldn't it be better to eliminate their strength for a day?"
.”
Hadu looked at his officers and soldiers, shook his head with a heavy expression and said: "We are running out of time. The Ruman forward team is only three days away from here.
If we don't end the battle as soon as possible, we will be dragged to death here."
"Three days~!" The man in gray robe said in surprise: "They came so fast."
Hearing the sound of drums and trumpets from the south, the rebels in the north also dispatched all their soldiers and rushed towards Lorraine's camp.
The Confederate Army approached from all sides and prepared to besiege Lorraine's camp.
All the soldiers in the coalition knew that they were about to face the most difficult battle. Without waiting for the officer's order, the soldiers clenched their weapons and quickly returned to their posts. They stood on the top of the low wall and watched with all their concentration as they approached.
of enemies.
The Southern Army soldiers were getting closer and closer. From his command position, Lorraine could see that there were only black and gray soldiers outside the camp. He couldn't even see where the rear of the enemy team was. It seemed that in the gray sky and earth outside the camp, they were all rebels.
Army soldiers.
Only the sound of their marching footsteps could be heard getting closer and closer.
Soon the Confederate Army walked out of the rain and appeared in front of the coalition forces. The Confederate Army suddenly stopped in front of the low wall of the coalition camp and stared silently at the coalition soldiers not far away.
There was also silence in the coalition camp. Everyone was already in their positions, and all combat preparations were completed. There was no need for orders or shouting. All the soldiers in the coalition camp knew that all that was left was to fight for their lives with real swords and guns.
.
Suddenly a loud shout came: "Kill n!"
A burly officer in the Confederate army raised his sword high and waved it to the sky, rushing towards the Union soldiers on the opposite side.
Immediately afterwards, the soldiers of the Confederate Army burst out with shouts of killing and rushed towards the low wall of the camp with a force like a huge wave rolled up by a tsunami.
In the blink of an eye, the huge wave hit the rock formed by the coalition soldiers, causing a broken wave to rush towards the coalition line.
But he stepped back in an instant.
Just between this advance and retreat, thousands of people have lost their lives.
Then another black wave composed of flesh and blood hit the coalition's front.
The coalition forces are like a big tree in a storm, being bent and then rebounding strongly, and then being bent by an even more violent wind and rain...
No matter which direction Lorraine looked, all he could see were soldiers, some fighting, and some waiting to join the battle to replace the fallen.
One hundred thousand young people in their prime of life fought for their lives in this wilderness for their respective motherland.
Lorraine exhaled heavily and said as if talking to himself: "Hadu probably thought that as long as it rained, I would lose my firepower advantage."
Behind Lorraine, the captain of the Security Army's Hal District stood firmly beside Lorraine, as if he had been closing his eyes to rest. At this moment, he suddenly opened his eyes after hearing this, his face was still serious, and he said: "Master Guangbo
He is wise and admired by his subordinates."
When Lorraine heard this, she raised the corners of her mouth and smiled unconsciously.
The more taciturn a subordinate is and rarely flatters him, the more comfortable he will be if he flatters his subordinates at critical moments. Especially when he flatters his subordinates, he has a dead look on his face.
The surrounding officers glanced at the captain of the Hal District with disdain, and said to themselves: I really thought you were as cold as an iceberg, and you would be so shy as to flatter the leader.
Lorraine sighed and said: "Now, the world should be in trouble again."
Captain Hal suddenly narrowed his eyes, showed a cold smile, and said without emotion: "The weak have no right to be dissatisfied."
Lorraine nodded in agreement. In order for him and his girlfriends to "live happily ever after" as in the fairy tale, the enemies Lorraine needs to defeat are getting stronger and stronger. Only if he is strong enough can he protect himself.
's family.
Lorraine patted Hal on the shoulder and said, "Let's get started."
Hal clicked his heels and performed a military salute with a bang, a bloodthirsty smile on his face that made other people's hearts palpitate, and he quickly ran down the command post.
In front of the headquarters is the security army's camp. There are more than two hundred four-wheel vehicles parked neatly in the middle of their camp.
The roof of the car was square and square, covered entirely with oilcloth and tied tightly with ropes.
The soldiers of the Security Army, all dressed in black, have been guarding these vehicles day and night without blinking an eye. Whether they are in the New Army or in the camp, no one is allowed to get close to these vehicles.
At this moment, thousands of security guards surrounded these vehicles, watching the brutal fighting outside with a nonchalant attitude.
In their arrogant eyes, it seemed as if the battle of these 100,000 people was like a group of fighting ants.
The captain of the Hal District came to his men impatiently.
The security soldiers all stood up and looked at their captain nervously.
As if he was about to taste something delicious, Hal licked his tongue and said with a wicked smile: "1 Little bastards, copycats, tell them that the Flying Eagle Death is coming."
The soldiers of the Flying Eagle Group's security forces shouted in unison, quickly ran towards the convoy in the middle, quickly took the cable, pulled off the oilcloth on the roof of the car, and exposed the roof covered by wooden boards.
Hassell stared nervously at the movements of the security soldiers. He knew that Lorraine had just confidently trapped himself and 40,000 coalition troops into the siege of Hadu. He relied on these mysterious vehicles. This was Lorraine's trump card.
.
Hassel had guessed countless times what the car was carrying. He wanted to ask Lorraine and even had the urge to take a sneak peek. After all, his own life and that of tens of thousands of Almohad New Army soldiers were in danger.
He relied on these mysterious things. Before he knew what they were, Hassell couldn't relax.
However, he suppressed his curiosity rationally. Lorraine didn't want everyone to know, so he had his reasons, and the security guards were too strict.
At this moment, the security soldiers removed the wooden boards on the roof and revealed the lineup inside the carriage.
Hassell was surprised to see that they were artillery pieces he had never seen before.
Lorraine glanced back and saw the wide-open eyes of the people behind her, staring straight at the security forces pushing artillery pieces out of the convoy.
Lorraine waved his hand and said: "Let's go and take a look." Compared with the artillery owned by the New Army, the artillery in front of Lorraine and the others has a thinner body and a longer barrel. The barrel of the artillery is not black.
, but emits a faint blue light.
The security soldiers pushed out the artillery and quickly fixed it on the spot. Others moved down the long wooden boxes one by one. The soldiers used crowbars to pry open the box lids, expose the cylindrical metal short posts inside, and remove the brass casing.
Unbridled exposure in the rain.
Hassell glanced at the cannon. The soldiers pointed the muzzle of the cannon upward, not caring about the rain pouring in along the muzzle.
He couldn't help but shudder: Obviously, they can be used in rainy days~!
Lorraine folded his hands in front of his chest, looked down at the brass cannonballs on the ground, and said: "Anti-infantry steel ball submunitions. Banned mass murder weapons. Fortunately, there is no Geneva International Convention in this era." "Anti-infantry steel ball submunitions."
Hassel repeated it in his mouth. He could only know from the name that it was used to deal with infantry.
Lorraine kicked the cannonball box on the ground with her toes and said: "Each cannonball contains five hundred steel balls. It explodes over the target area through a timed fuse. The steel ball projectiles exceed the speed of sound and can cover a range of fifty feet in diameter.
Wear all the armors known so far." Hassel was like a wooden block, dumbfounded for a full minute, and then suddenly took a sharp breath, his face flushed.
Only then did he realize how terrifying the steel ball bullets were. He couldn't help but look up at the Southern Army soldiers who were densely packed in the distance and bravely attacking the coalition's defense line. A look of pity appeared in his eyes unconsciously.
Although they are enemies, they are also Almohads.
Under the steel ball submunition, there will be no survivors. This will be a one-sided and highly efficient massacre.
He finally understood why Lorraine dared to jump into Hadou's siege, why he had been waiting for Hadou to besiege him, and why he came up with this weapon that only the devil could come up with after knowing that Hadou had used all his strength.
Only a dense crowd can exert its maximum lethality, and this was when the Southern Army was at its most dense.
Hassell was in a trance when Lorraine's voice seemed to float from the sky, and he said faintly: "Fixed ammunition, brass cartridges, a firing primer made of exploding crystal, and breech loading can ensure that it can survive in most bad weather.
under normal use.
This is a necessary weapon for murder, arson, robbery and interference. I know what you are thinking, General Hassell."
Lorraine turned his head and glanced at the fighting crowd not far away, and said: "To deal with dense formations, this is actually a more effective massacre weapon than the nose gun, and it is more cost-effective. Of course, there are some training problems.
trouble."
Hassell seemed to be sleepwalking, completely unaware of what the machine gun that Lorraine was talking about was. He only had one thought in his mind at this time: Fortunately, when the Maple Leaf Danlin Alliance and Almohad went to war, Lorraine had it in his hands.
Without this kind of weapon, there might be no Weishan and no Hasel.
"Do you know? General Hassell," Lorraine said with a smile, "Thanks to the almighty magic and alchemy, they have achieved what others need two thousand years to do."
The artilleryman of the Security Army skillfully opened the breech of the gun and used a long-handled hard-bristled brush to clean the barrel.
The officer next to him used a telescope to estimate the distance and loudly ordered: "Fire at an angle of thirty-seven degrees, and test fire one round."
The artilleryman next to him carefully took out a cloth wrapped in cotton from an iron box, then patiently opened it little by little, took out a primer made of exploding crystal from the middle, and installed it into the bottom of the cannonball.
The shape of the exploding crystal is unstable. For safety reasons, it is separated during storage and transportation, and is only installed when using it.
Then two artillery soldiers lifted the shell and pushed it into the barrel of the gun. Another soldier closed the breech block, and the others quickly retreated and left.
The soldier who closed the breech grabbed the drawstring, took two steps to the side, and pulled hard with his arm.
The cannon sat back fiercely, and then a sharp orange light erupted from the muzzle, instantly illuminating the surroundings of the cannon.
There was a loud "boom" sound, which made the ears of people near the cannon buzz.
