Chapter 1512

Naturally, all the generals in the Frankish army knew that the holy Helan Empire had a new army in recent years.

At the same time, we all know that this new army played a great role in the expedition against grassland people.

But they knew little about the new army of the Holy Hiran Empire and lacked information.

We only know that the name of this new army is "musket team", the new weapon used is "musket", and their soldiers move forward with the sound of music.

Their "musket" is a long-range weapon with great power.

In addition, Rudolph and others do not know any other information.

How far can a musket go? How powerful is it? What is the shooting speed?

Rudolph and others don't know all these important information.

Because of the lack of information on this new army, Rudolph and others decided to adopt a safe way of playing - first send sword and shield soldiers to test the combat power of this new army.

Rudolph was relieved to see the new army with its own music sent by the Hiran army opposite.

If the first troops sent by the Hiram army opposite were not their new troops, but other troops, Rudolph would have to let the sword and shield soldiers withdraw first.

Rudolph's eyes were fixed on the battlefield ahead and on the two approaching troops

……

……

El is still in charge of the whole army. Gabriel is in charge of commanding the muskets and welcoming the sword and shield soldiers of the Frankish army.

Gabriel is the most familiar person in the army except el.

At the same time, Gabriel is also the most trusted person in El, and he also has good military quality.

Although now nominally, El is still the top commander of the musketeers.

But now El doesn't personally command the Musketeers to fight. At present, Gabriel is mainly in front of the front line to command the musketeers.

Gabriel, who was in the center of the musketeers and stayed with the musicians, kept calculating the distance between them and the Frankish army.

After calculating that the Frank army opposite entered the shooting range, Gabriel shouted:

"Stop!"

As soon as Gabriel's command fell, the musicians next to him immediately stopped playing.

The Musketeers also stopped moving forward and arranged in a tight and neat formation.

"Raise your gun!"

Hua la la la

The Musketeers raised the muskets that had been leaning against their shoulders.

"Aim!"

Hua la la la

The sound of metal instrument collision sounded one after another again.

"Let go!"

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang

The Musketeers pulled the trigger at the same time.

A dense barrage of bullets swept towards the sword and shield army array opposite.

When the gunfire fell on the side of the Musketeers, the screams of the sword and shield soldiers of the Frankish army sounded one after another.

After El's expedition to the Far East grassland achieved an unprecedented victory, the monarchs and ministers of the holy Helan Empire saw the power of fire guns.

Wahiri never thought that the musket he despised had such great power.

Wahiri, who was very happy, directly ordered to invest heavily in the research and manufacture of muskets and expand the scale of muskets.

Wahiri's plan is to let the major legions of the country have a sufficient number of musketeers.

However - although the central government of the holy Hiram Empire has devoted a lot of materials to increase the research on muskets, in order to further improve the power and speed of muskets, or directly reduce the cost.

However - studying this kind of thing belongs to the thing that may lose everything no matter how much money you spend in it

Although there is no progress in the research of muskets, and the power, firing speed and production cost of muskets are the same as those during El's expedition to the grassland, the number of muskets and Musketeers has increased a lot.

After the imperial central government invested energy and materials to expand the size of the Musketeers, there are 4121 new and old Musketeers and 8291 Musketeers in the holy Helan empire.

In order to increase the combat power of the Legion attacking the Frankish Empire and enable el to occupy the land of the Frankish empire as much as possible, wahili transferred all the musketeers and muskets in their holy Hiran Empire to El's command.

So - El currently has more than 4000 Musketeers and more than 8000 Musketeers.

A military formation composed of more than 4000 Musketeers - one can imagine how large this military formation is.

A dense barrage of bullets roared towards the Frankish sword and shield soldiers opposite.

All the battle shields used by these sword and shield soldiers are human high wall shields.

Both the thickness and the materials used are impeccable. Even crossbows and arrows are difficult to penetrate such a thick shield.

However, after the dense barrage swept towards them, all the thick shields in their hands were punctured.

The projectile directly smashed the thick shield in their hands, and then directly penetrated the people hiding behind the shield.

For a moment, blood blooms and sorrows are everywhere.

Just the first round of shooting, many people fell in the sword and shield formation of the Frankish army.

The whole formation is directly disordered.

Let alone move on, the sword and shield soldiers of the Frankish army even had a hard time maintaining their formation.

Whether the sword and shield soldiers facing the Musketeers or the other soldiers behind the Frankish army were stunned by the powerful power of the Musketeers, the second round of attack of the Musketeers came.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang

There were gunshots again, one after another.

Another sword and shield soldier of the Frankish army fell to the ground and howled.

With only two rounds of volley, the sword and shield soldiers of the Frankish army collapsed in pennies.

Since the emergence of the first soldier to escape backward, it has triggered a serious chain reaction.

More and more soldiers did not have the courage to face the Musketeers who could break such a thick shield and fled one after another.

Rudolph, who stayed on the watchtower at the front of the Frankish army, witnessed all this with his own eyes, and then turned fiercely towards the wooden fence in front of him.

"Send troops to meet! Take back all the sword and shield soldiers safely! "

Rudolph did not intend to blame these sword and shield soldiers for their escape.

Because he can understand these sword and shield soldiers very well

The opponent's weapon could easily break such a thick shield... Rudolph would want to escape.

"Rudolph..." Erich, standing beside Rudolph, said in a deep voice, "what shall we do now? Have you come up with any plan to restrain the musketeers of the Hiram army? "

"... send cavalry!" Rudolph gritted his teeth and said in a calm voice, "since the sword and shield soldiers can't deal with the Musketeers, send cavalry! We win with speed! Beat the Musketeers before they use their muskets! "
