Chapter 140 The Bloody Battle Begins

Housekeeper West stood beside Eugen, shocked by the scene in front of him and could not speak. He had done his best to imagine, but now it seemed that he still underestimated the power of the powder barrel.

Especially when seeing someone being directly beaten to ashes by the flames, Housekeeper West was even more shocked by it and couldn't help but murmur: "My God, does this power really belong to humans?"

The soldiers who escorted the team were also shocked, but then there were excited shouts in the team, and their morale was greatly improved.

For these soldiers, it is not important to destroy the enemy. What is important is that all the enemies fall down.

The second leader of the Blackbeard Robber Group, the second leader, was rolling his eyes, Mosto had already led his subordinates to rush over from the south. He also heard the violent explosion behind the low hills in the north, and also saw the light of the red sky. However, because his vision was blocked, he did not know what was going on there.

Now they had rushed to the front of the escort team's front. The big trucks blocked their way. They raised their machetes and waved them forward randomly, then turned their horse's head and rushed towards the side of the front.

They are not heavy cavalry, and they are difficult to break through such defense lines, so they can only go back and forth to look for opportunities.

Mosto took out a short-handled musket in his arms and shot it at the front. A burst of blue smoke rang out, and all the bullets hit the axle.

For these robbers, muskets are still rare, and only one, as the second in command, is one.

The boss Blackbeard is not interested, so he doesn't have such things either.

Looking at the front train made by the car, Mosto gritted his teeth hard. If his team could be equipped with a musket, it would be much easier to break through the front line. Unfortunately, this is just a luxury.

Someone in the robber team set up a bow and arrow to shoot at the soldiers hiding behind the chariots, but with the blocking of the chariots and infantry shields, these attacks did not cause any damage.

Corion led his soldiers behind the front line, and they wanted to force the other party to forcibly rush forward, or dismount and fight in the field, and lose their horses, the cavalry would have no advantage over the infantry.

Mosto saw that the front formed by the cart could not break through, and his eyes turned, he noticed the small forest connected to the front.

Although it is difficult to walk in the woods, there are still some gaps to drill. As long as you drill through the woods, you can break into the opponent's front, which will be more beneficial to them at that time.

Thinking of this, Mosto roared and led his more than thirty subordinates to rush through the front line in the direction of the small forest.

Corion did not arrange any soldiers to guard the woods, which was Eugen's habit. If the conditions were right, he would leave a gap in his own line to attract the opponent to attack from there.

This was the case in the last battle, and this time it was the same. Eugen always arranged it as if he was unable to set up defense, but did he really have no spare energy?

Seeing Mosto and his men rushing into the bushes and starting to slow down and lean into the inside, Corion shouted in the team, and the cavalry team with fifty men gathered to him.

When the escort team set out from Vienna, there were only two types of troops, the cavalry and infantry, all of which were invaded and had no ability to fight far away.

But this does not mean that when I came back, there was no such thing.

When passing San Marino City, Eugen specially found the commander of the local garrison army and borrowed him a batch of old-fashioned muskets replaced by the army.

These muskets have poor accuracy and low power, and are very troublesome to load ammunition. They can be said to be disadvantages everywhere.

But even so, Eugen still tried a lot to get them over. After all, these guns are still useful, and they are long-range attack methods.

Even old-fashioned muskets are not easy to get. The troops delayed the city of San Marino for five days, and a large part of this is because of this reason.

A total of 100 muskets were all assembled by Eugen into the cavalry team. Now, these cavalrymen had other attack methods.

At this moment, facing those robbers who are moving slowly and are still very close to each other, even if these cavalry are all newbies who are just new to muskets, they can still ensure a certain accuracy.

After the team was sorted out, Corion stood behind the cavalry team, looked at the ugly and despicable robbers, and ordered loudly: "Start!"

Bang bang bang, a musket bang sounded, and then another round of bang sounded, as dense as fried beans.

Two wheels of a total of one hundred iron projectiles were shot at the robbers in the woods at high speeds of hundreds of meters per second. The ammunition was distributed in this narrow forest, and its density was simply unavoidable.

The first moment Mosto saw the people on the other side take out the musket, he immediately turned over and got off the horse and hid behind the horse. He had already realized what would happen.

However, there were still many bandits who did not respond as quickly as he did. Without waiting for his reminder, the ammunition fired from the musket hit the unlucky bandits.

Papa, the bullet shot into the human body, making a dull and crisp sound, and in an instant, more than half of the robbers fell to the ground.

There were more than thirty robbers, only a dozen were left.

Moreover, most of their war horses were hit by ammunition, either madly lost control, or died simply. In short, they had no way to control them anymore. In the end, all the robbers fell to the ground and lost their war horses and turned into infantry.

"Rare! Kill them all!"

The light cavalry led by Corion also gave up the horse and stood on the ground. As Corion roared, fifty cavalry immediately rushed into the woods and killed the robbers.

Their muskets are also disposable items, and they can only shoot one shot, but this is enough. The next battle will depend on the sword in their hands to speak.

Mosto was furious, and he stared at Corion who was rushing in front, regretting that he had not completely killed him.

Unfortunately, nothing is useless to say now. Mosto had to shout to retreat and ran out in a panic. He knew that the other party would not dare to chase out of the woods, and he would be safe as long as he ran out of the woods.

Corion's side chased after him and slashed wildly. When he reached the edge of the woods, the bandits who entered the woods, including Mosto, were only three living people left, and the rest were all left in the woods.

A cavalry on Corion's side was cut open by a robber's death counterattack. This is the only soldier killed in Eugen's team.

The war loss ratio between the two sides is simply terrible, nearly 300 to one.

But even so, there are nearly 300 people on the robber side, twice as many as the escort soldiers. Eugen no longer has any back moves, and the bloodiest scene on the battlefield will begin soon.
