Chapter 537: Terrible shotgun shell

On the east side of the position, an extraordinary person in charge of command shouted out the command:

"shooting!"

Behind the bunkers, more than 5,000 soldiers leaned out at the same time and pulled the trigger of the crossbow.

Since Renault spent the "blood cost" and purchased a large number of crossbows from its own Chamber of Commerce, the Rose Army has become a rare army equipped with crossbows.

"Buzzing..."

The trembling sound of the crossbow string swept across like a tide, and a dark cloud soared from the position, drew an arc in the air, and fell into the horror beast cavalry group more than 500 meters away.

This is a projectile.

Although the accuracy of the projectile is extremely low, although all the black orc knights are wearing heavy armor, although the key parts of the dread beast are covered with chain armor, the huge number still causes a certain blow effect.

The screams of the black-skinned beasts and the wailing of the dread beasts sounded one after another. More than 30 dread beasts were hit by crossbow arrows. Their running speed immediately slowed down or crashed to the ground. Some dread beasts shunned. Bumped one head.

Accompanied by the muffled sound of "bang bang", a little spray splashed in the black torrent.

However, the loss of the Dreading Beast Knights was not great, and they were still struggling to run wild.

Without the order from the officers, the soldiers immediately followed the instructions of the instructors in the training, shaking the handle of the ratchet winder, re-winding the crossbow and reloading the crossbow.

Compared with the magic crossbows used by the island guards, these crossbows only replace the magic winding device that can be automatically wound with a ratchet winding device that must be manually operated. The other structures are exactly the same.

The magic winder can open the crossbow string in less than 1 second and can shoot once every 2 seconds, while the ratchet winder takes more than 2 seconds to pull the crossbow string back to its original position, and it takes at least 4 seconds to complete a shot.

Despite this, the ratchet crossbow is still an extremely advanced crossbow, and even the knowledgeable transcendents were full of praise for its performance when they first came into contact with it.

"Buzzing..."

Another black cloud rose and fell, and the chaos in the dread beast cavalry army expanded.

When the third black cloud fell, Grumm said with some excitement:

"Under the crown, the black orc is about to reach the first trapped ditch..."

Renault nodded, his eyes fixed on a clearing in the distance, and his eyes showed expectation.

In the thunderous sound of iron hoofs, as soon as the horror beasts rushed here, the ground collapsed suddenly, revealing a trench, and a large number of horror beasts were caught off guard and plunged into the ditch.

The sound of collision, wailing, and howl shook the sky, and there were scenes of people turning their backs on their horses everywhere, and the black torrent suddenly stagnated.

After the Panzer Corps dug the trenches, the soldiers deliberately concealed it.

They put the branches on the trench, spread a layer of blades of grass, and finally sprinkled a layer of soil on the blades of grass. After dressing up in this way, the trenches and the ground became integrated, and they couldn't be distinguished at all.

This simple trick caused the black orc cavalry to suffer a huge loss.

This is also due to the air superiority of the Rose Army.

Because the three of the Gollum controlled the air supremacy, the black orcs' magic eyes did not dare to appear at all. The black skins knew nothing about the arrangement of the Rose Legion in the village of Les, and what tricks they did.

Before the change, the Demon Eye wandered over the human army all day long, and no action could escape their eyes.

"The heavy machine gun fired!"

Seeing the black knights crowding in front of the trench, an officer of the island guard gave an order, and 40 heavy machine guns instantly screamed.

"His...His..."

"His...His..."

The densely packed bullets pounced on the black knight like a torrential rain.

"Ding Ding Dong Dang..."

In the rain-like explosion, the armor of the black skin and the horror beast was pierced by bullets, and countless blood blossoms bloomed, and the horror and the black skin fell like wheat that encountered a sickle.

In just 10 seconds, Heipi's casualties soared to 500, and the first trench became a real death zone.

…………

Fighting also started on the south and north sides of the position.

The two armored battalions ordered to attack actively crossed the first trench and rushed towards the black orc infantry. The commander of the first battalion, Moose, and the commander of the second battalion, John Bald, yelled their orders:

"Katyusha chariot, ready to shoot!"

The six Katyusha chariots in each armored battalion rushed to the forefront and aimed the Katyusha multiple rocket launchers at the black orc infantry.

The black skin on the opposite side seemed to perceive something wrong, and several black orc officers roared repeatedly, urging the infantry to disperse their positions and not get too close to each other.

However, this group of thoughts is still stuck in the black skin of the cold weapon era, and the reaction is too slow.

In other words, the black skins lacked the most basic knowledge of magic weapons. From the beginning of the offensive, they were still using the "old" phalanx. It was not until they saw the armored vehicles that the officers remembered certain rumors and hurriedly let them go. The army dispersed.

"Boom!"

After the huge roar, the rocket launched dozens of black shadows.

Then, something amazing happened.

After these shells burst out of the barrel, their shells were split into two halves, and a large pile of small steel **** were scattered. They dispersed automatically during the flight, covering a large area of ​​space.

This is a special projectile developed by the Rune Research Institute specifically for the Katyusha rocket-shotgun projectile.

It is also a super killer "invented" by Renault!

The structure of the shotgun shell is extremely peculiar. Its shell is two thin steel shells fitted together. The shell is wrapped with more than 1,000 small steel **** of different sizes and shapes.

During high-speed flight, under the action of air resistance, the steel shell will automatically disintegrate and fall off, exposing small steel balls, and rely on them to kill the enemy.

Each Katyusha tank fired 24 artillery shells, and the number of small steel **** in it exceeded 25,000. The six Katyusha tanks fired a round of volleys, and more than 150,000 small steel **** were shot.

If there is one word to describe this terrible offensive, it is-overwhelming.

After a breath, the steel ball storm officially came.

The whistling sound of "swish swish" filled every inch of space, and an astonishing number of steel **** hit the black orc infantry legion.

"Ding Ding..."

"Boom..."

"Bangbang..."

"Crackling..."

150,000 small steel **** played an extremely magnificent percussion.

Although the volume of the steel ball is small, its power is also amazing because of its extremely fast speed.

Ordinary armor can't stop them at all. The various metal shields and wooden shields in the hands of the black-skin infantry are pierced by steel balls, and the various full-body armors and wooden armors on the black-skinned body are also pierced by steel balls.

If the steel ball hits the unprotected part, then it is immediately the result of a broken bone. The steel ball penetrates the skin, penetrates into the muscles and internal organs, and knocks out fatal cavities in the black skins.

At this moment, the two black-skinned infantry regiments with more than 3,000 people were knocked down in an instant with nearly 2,000 people, with a casualty rate of more than 60%.

This is definitely a devastating blow.

The ground around the black skins was as if it had been gnawed by 10,000 dogs. There were pits, big pits and small holes everywhere.

Renault was shocked by the terrible killing effect.
