The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire Chapter 382: Iron Cannon Team

The rows of bamboo rafts were pulled into the river. Not long after, with the concerted efforts of 20,000 troops, more than 5,000 bamboo rafts suddenly appeared on the wide river.

Each bamboo raft is loaded with more than 20 dojo soldiers. In addition to the ordinary first-order Zuqing and some cannon fodder, there is also a samurai leader as the commander of this bamboo raft.

The coalition forces on the opposite side suddenly saw the dense bamboo rafts on the river surface, even covering a small half of the river surface. They had never seen a coalition force of such a large scale and scale, and they couldn't help being stunned for a while.

The entire Qianqu River is not wide, about a hundred meters wide. This is the widest river surface in the entire river, and the narrow one is even more than 30 meters.

The bamboo rafts laid by the Daochang army immediately covered a small half of the river surface. When the number reached a terrifying level, they were densely stacked together, and the shock was hard to add.

So the opposing coalition forces are not very sharp and not strong in fighting will, and many people are scared.

There was a commotion in the untidy army formation, and there was a buzz of discussion.

"Give me quiet, quiet, you untouchables."

One by one, the coalition warriors holding katana and wearing samurai uniforms kept wandering in the army formation, staring at the conscript untouchables who were full of fear and were constantly whispering.

Under their deterrence, out of innate fear of the samurai master, these untouchables who were forcibly conscripted to fight for the coalition army could not help but shudder, and dared not say any more.

As the army of the dojo kept catching up with the bamboo rafts, some of the bamboo rafts in the front row had already begun to swim, and quickly reached the center of the river, and it would take a few minutes to reach the other side of the river.

This kind of speed couldn't help but shock the coalition forces. Their commander Yoshiki Murakami couldn't help but rushed in unison.

"Quick, quick, archery team, give me arrows."

Without Murakami Yoshiki's orders, the low-level warriors under the coalition forces are already urging their soldiers to resist.

Following the urging of these samurai masters, one by one archers couldn't help but unfold their crude bamboo bows, set up their extremely rough arrows, and began to aim at the army on the river surface, and then continued to throw out. .

The various archers of the coalition army belong to different camps, and they are not strictly at the same time. Each bow and arrow array has dozens of people, or hundreds of people, each according to their own leader urging, and shooting cross each other. Arrow.

This kind of shooting is extremely chaotic, and it can't maximize the archer's most powerful attack method, which is to launch a dense wave of arrows to attack the enemy on a large scale.

Although the sparse bows and arrows were quite powerful, they caused great trouble to the army of the dojo who was crossing the river. Many people fell directly into the river and were submerged.

But with the addition of more bamboo rafts, this kind of attack, weak witnesses become weaker and weaker, and it becomes difficult to stop the coalition from crossing the river.

"Iron Cannon Team, come on."

Looking at the weakness of the archers under his command, Murakami couldn't help gritting his teeth fiercely. He hated these useless archers extremely in his heart.

He secretly vowed in his heart that he must rectify himself in the future, or simply abolish these useless units.

But now is not the time to talk about this, Murakami couldn't help but look at his extremely expectant, extremely elite iron artillery team in the Allied Forces.

These iron cannons are simple matchlock guns, and they are extremely crude and primitive. The effective range is about 30 meters to 50 meters, and there is no guarantee for the accuracy of the head.

And this kind of iron cannon also has a very fatal shortcoming, that is, it is very slow to reload, usually only one shot can be loaded in a minute or two, and Kako misfires often occur.

And the iron cannon can not be used in rainy weather, otherwise it is very easy to get damp.

Although these iron cannons have various defects, it cannot be denied that these iron cannons are extremely powerful.

As long as he is hit by an iron cannon, even if he is a powerful samurai, it is a result of death.

Moreover, the wounds caused by iron cannons are extremely large. A single shot can produce a wound with a large mouth. The blood is dripping, and the surrounding flesh and skin will open, which is basically difficult to heal.

Moreover, there are still some infections in the iron cannons. If they are not treated in time, they will soon get tetanus and other diseases, and then die in pain.

The number of these iron artillery teams is not very large. Even if the entire coalition is clenched together, they add up to about 2,000 people, but this is already an extremely powerful force.

After the two thousand iron artillery teams joined the battlefield, they soon formed a queue, forming three rows.

This is the classic three-stage shot.

During the long period of the Warring States Period, this classic shooting formation has been figured out~IndoMTL.com~ and it has been carried forward very quickly, and it has been accepted by the rich and famous of all countries.

More than 2,000 people form three arrays, and each row can be distributed to about seven or eight hundred people.

The seven or eight hundred people in the first row quickly raised the iron cannon in their hands and aimed at the army of the dojo who came over.

Boom boom boom.

With the bursts of black smoke, a thunderous sound rang, so that the whole noisy battlefield was covered by the thunder.

And the army on the other side who has crossed most of the river and is about to reach the river bank, the joyful expression on their faces can be clearly seen by the coalition forces on the other side.

But before they were happy, the sound of a cannon destroyed them.

Countless blood spattered, with the sound of the cannon, more than a hundred strong soldiers fell to the ground, and the blood was stained red.

Then the soldiers in the next row stepped forward with bangs again, and the army in front continued to fall, and the line of defense that could not be maintained became solid.

"It is indeed the Iron Cannon team that has high hopes. It has caused such a big effect just after its appearance. It seems that this line of defense can be stable for a long time."

But they ignored the determination of the opposing dojo army to take the river.

Even with the entry of the Iron Cannon team, the Dojo army lost more than two thousand people in a short period of time, but under the pressure of their coach, more troops on the field were pressed on.

Under the attack regardless of loss, even if the Iron Panthers continue to exert their tremendous power, they can't resist the endless offensive of the dojo address after all.

There are many people in the Iron Cannon team, but there are more people in the dojo address, and their bullets can't stop their flesh and blood.

Finally, when the iron cannon of the Iron Cannon team was scrapped in half.

That is, when the first batch of coalition forces stepped onto the river bank, the coalition's river crossing blockade was completely declared over.
