The sound of horse hooves is getting closer and closer like thunder. At this moment, Zhao Fubo and the musketeers of the Song Yulin Army under his command were all on the carriage. The rifles in his hands are ready to shoot, and the revolver is already full of ammunition. This also includes Sophia, the long golden rifle with a scope in her hand, which looks dazzling.

The sound of horse hooves like thunder rolled over, and at this time the enemy's light cavalry moved to both sides at a faster speed. Perhaps their purpose was to fail to attack from the front and succeed in the side attack. As long as the people in the camp were entangled and the infantry arrived behind, then everything was not a problem. Even if all the cavalry were killed in battle, the war would be the result of their victory.

"Stay..."

The people on the whistle buzzed out loud commands because they were responsible for measuring distances and fired before entering the effective range would allow most bullets to hit the air.

"Boxer, one round..."

In the loud shouting, a signal flare was fired. The 12 "Flying Swallow Iii-type crossbows" in three directions shot 15 and 60 mm shells per minute at a distance of 600 meters. This was of course a silent attack. Even when the "Flying Swallow Iii-type crossbows" began to attack, the people on the watchtower did not pay attention to them anymore.

Still staring at the rangefinder in front of you, 280 meters is the maximum limit of use of smoothbore guns. People who can hit the target with flintlocks in this range need a lot of luck. In addition, it is a dense formation. In addition, it is the latest improvements to flintlocks, which are the latest and improved musket bullets supplied from Huaxia Island.

This is a stamped semi-jujube-shaped bullet with its tail sunk inwards. The cylindrical shape in the middle of the projectile is slightly longer to facilitate air stasis. Due to the hollowness of the tail, when the gunpowder burns, the soft lead will slightly expand, thus achieving the effect of air stasis. After testing the streamlined warhead, it will provide a longer range, more accurate shooting and greater penetration. Of course, this is a flintlock for Europe, and there is no need to develop too quickly. Even Zhao Fubo only used this projectile in the musket team he led. As for other musketeers, he is still using spherical projectiles produced in Sardinia.

As the sound of horse hooves became closer, all the musketeers' eyes trembled unbelievably. They could almost see the knight spears in the hands of the cavalry. In their minds, it seemed that they had been penetrated by the spears, and they were penetrated on the spears like barbecue. Finally, the lookout whistle made a sound as beautiful as the sound of nature, and the musketeers' hearts were lightened.

"Mustgun, shoot!"

Like the usual training, the musketeers' shooting is divided into three directions. First, they strike two consecutively on the left and right, and then the middle army launches an attack. The reason is that cross-fire will cause more casualties, or luck will become better when cross-fire.

The fire flashed three times in front of the entire vehicle array, and the three volleys caused serious creations to the enemy cavalry, which was only 280 meters. After all, everyone could see that the first row of knights fell almost completely under the horses' hooves of the subsequent cavalry charge due to three shots. The screams immediately sounded, but at this time the shells of the "Flying Swallow Iii-type crossbow" flying in the air began to fall in the light cavalry team that deviated to both sides.

A series of explosions sounded as the pillars of soil rising on the ground, and the dense light cavalry team that had originally made sharp screams immediately appeared in the blank space. The cavalry and war horses were thrown into the sky by violent explosions. Everyone should remember that the shells of the "Flying Swallow III" were not filled with fire, but were filled with serious tnt intense explosives.

Almost in an instant, the entire light cavalry team attacked by both wings was completely destroyed. The light cavalry of the brigade completely stopped their pace under the fierce "one round of crossbows" attacks, as many as 180 shells. They didn't understand where to find such an explosion in this world. Even if it was an explosion of asphalt bombs, wouldn't it be necessary to ignite it in advance?

With the disappointment of the collapse of the light cavalry, the people on the city put all their hopes on the result of the frontal attack. There, the Mamluk heavy cavalry replaced the knight's spears, and their spears were lined up in front of them. Although they were far less terrifying than the knight's spears, they also fell to Zhao Fubo and his camp like a row of heavy iron walls.

"Directional Thunder!"

It is not enough for the cavalry to take 10 seconds. At this time, the musketeers who were originally in front of the chariot array had already returned to the chariot array from the gap between the chariots. Although there was only a rope in front of them, it was much better than being exposed to the cavalry's spear.

With the sound and signal on the lookout post, soldiers who controlled directional thunder on the carriage box pulled the rope together. The large barrels installed in the ground and the dirt pit also flew out in pieces of grenades. Their shooting distance was closer, only about 150 meters. However, as mentioned earlier, the shells they shot out were not one, but one piece.

Compared with these "grenade launchers", the strike of directional thunder is more direct. Inspired by the fire, the steel balls flew towards the cavalry in front. Just like a harvester cutting wheat, the entire row of heavy cavalry almost no survivors were all knocked down by these steel balls. This time, unlike when the cavalry were knocked down by muskets, they could still make sharp screams. They were knocked down by several steel balls and could not even make a sound. They were already dead before they landed.

When all the heavy cavalry fell to the ground, there were some light cavalry and slower infantry behind them. Originally, when the directional thunder knocked out most of the cavalry, Zhao Fubo quietly breathed a sigh of relief. He believed that under such a blow, these enemy soldiers who came to attack should have already learned to retreat vigorously.

However, to his surprise, the light cavalry on the front, even if they were facing the blows of the light cavalry on both wings, were facing the losses in front of them twice. They still waved their scimitars and held their shields to launch a desperate attack on the chariot formation.

Just at this moment, the "grenade launcher" launched a lot of projectiles, but unfortunately they landed behind the camp of thousands of cavalrymen. The neat explosion made it a real hell on earth. All those who did not leave in time were almost torn into pieces by dense projectiles under the blow of these air-explosive grenades.
