Chapter 56 You Can Only Be Cannon Fodder

"Run with me, rush out..."

The 10,000 cavalry retreated to the vicinity of the city gate under the fire-gathering fire of 10,000 musketeers... The injured person made a miserable cry, and He Qi, who had been entangled in the chaos, rushed over desperately and arrived at Zhao Xu.

"Master Xu, I rushed over with my brothers several times, but I didn't rush over."

At this moment, He Qi was shot. If it weren't for the general armor that Zhao Xu gave him, He Qi would have been desperate to come back to see Zhao Xu. Looking at the bullet in He Qi's chest, Zhao Xu couldn't imagine what He Qi would look like if he was hit by a place without vest armor.

"If this is the case, you can just sit on the bus, so that you can rest for a while..."

Although He Qi was injured by gunfires under Azam Tulansha Sultan, and Zhao Xu was also very concerned about him. But he had already confirmed in his heart that the master of this land in the future would definitely be Zhao Fubo, the grandson of Sanniang. So now, since he cannot escape easily because of his injury, he has to be an undercover agent around Zhao Xu. However, before things are desperate, he still has a glimmer of hope.

"Master Xu, I can still fight. Why would I let me go to the back team to supervise the army, maybe..."

If Zhao Xu agreed, the officers of the 10,000 cavalry behind would only listen to him and say goodbye to him. When he got there, he might be able to cooperate with the musketeers in front and capture Zhao Xu. However, Zhao Xu's answer disappointed him.

"No, no need, you are just lying in the big cart, and the bullets outside will not hurt you. I will lead the team to charge in person!"

Yes, Zhao Xu was going to lead the team to charge in person. Not only that, he roughly reorganized the retreating cavalry, but also transferred the other 10,000 cavalry behind him to the front. This time, Zhao Xu planned to fight hard like a wounded lone wolf.

"Run with me, there is hope when you rush out!"

As soon as the sentence "fight with me" was spoken, the soldiers felt the scene when they first attacked Bosaro. At that time, Zhao Xu was also the leader in the bloody battle on the Bersaro wall, so his morale was greatly boosted and he took Bosaro's. This played a great role when the weapons and equipment of the two sides of the war were at the same level, or when there was not much difference.

But history tells us that when the weapons and equipment of both sides are at absolutely different levels in the two eras, the end of the war is almost certain. For example, in World War II, when the Polish army dealt with the tanks of the German team, for example, in the Iraq War, the US army dealt with the Iraqi army. It was entirely due to the different technological content of combat equipment, which led to a war under the combat methods of the two eras.

The cavalry beside Zhao Xu quickly rushed past him, and they even quickly surpassed him. This time, the charge of up to 17,000 cavalrymen, even if there were 10,000 musketeers in front, it was still impossible for them to stop this avalanche-like battle.

However, as the saying goes, there is no absolute in the world.

Zhao Xu and his cavalry launched a desperate charge, and the thunder-like horse hooves also infected his heart. The trembling with a little pleasure in the battle was filling his whole body. At this time, the sky suddenly became bright, and the flash was so familiar to Zhao Xu. Suddenly, a row of things appeared in the sky, as if a huge claw in the sky had tear through the skin of the sky, leaving a blood-red mark.

Zhao Xu knew what that was, but he was in control of more than 10,000 cavalry at this moment, and he was involuntarily helpless. Those things that "cut" the sky were shells shot from the "Flying Yan iii type crossbow" that Zhao Fubo once equipped. Zhao Xu even created similar bottom exhaust shells because of Sainhan Badu's description. However, the shells shot from his "Raindrop Cannon" were far less than the shells shot from the "Flying Yan iii type crossbow".

At this moment, when he charged forward among the closely-formed cavalry, he couldn't help but wrap the black cloak from Huaxia Island in the face of the shells. He didn't expect the fabric of raw silk and glass silk to block the shrapnel, but said that the shells flying through the sky brought him fear.

But the other cavalry did not know what was flying in. They held their knives and rushed to the "crescent formations" composed of 1,250 people in front. Although the cavalry in front knew that they might die under the attack of those bullets, the sound of guns and cannons in the city of Bershall have told them that there is no way out. Therefore, they had to hold up their swords and protect their bodies with shields on the other side, hoping that these shields could block the fire of those muskets.

These shields were used by Zhao Xu to give courage to the soldiers in front of him. Although he also doubted how useful these shields wrapped in iron were just some composite materials. But they all came from Huaxia Island, which gave Zhao Xu confidence in them.

However, what was only amazing was that the shells that had cut through the sky did not fall on the cavalry behind. Instead, they built a line of defense for death in front of the infantry.

The violent explosion was 100 times louder than gunpowder shells. The power of TNT charge was naturally much greater than gunpowder. However, with the production capacity of the countries in the world at this time, they told them the TNT formula, and they did not have the ability to produce in large quantities. The shells "Flying Swallow III-type crossbow" used by Azam Tulansha Sultan directly came from the inventory of Huaxia Island.

Because all the shells need to be consumed, Azam Tulansha Sultan, who ate almost all the "Flying Swallow Iii-type crossbows", got all the shells in stock. Therefore, Azam Tulansha Sultan looked a little stupid, and even his loyalty to Zhao Fubo reached a shameless level. However, this also shows that he is a smart person, a person who knows what kind of person is a real strong man.

No matter how fast the horse is, whether it is shield or armor, under the shells fired by the "Flying Swallow Iii-type crossbows", they are nothing at all. They are just corpses that fall under the fire. In another language, they can only be called "cannon fodder".

However, more than 10,000 cavalrymen carried out tight formation charges together, and relying solely on artillery, they often appear weaker. Therefore, when the cavalry broke into the range, the musket infantry in front of them opened fire. One team after another, one after another. The formation of 5 musket infantry teams allowed them to form continuous firepower. Under such firepower strike, Zhao Xu's escape route was cut off!

"It's over, I'm going to die here!"
