History’s Strongest Husband
Chapter 431: Landslide and Earth Crack! Hell-level massacre!
With an order, Duke Austin's army began to prepare.
Four or five people operated the medium-sized trebuchet, opened the throwing plate with all their strength, and then put gunpowder packs on it.
Zhang Chunhua watched all this from the top of the city, and she even had a relatively crude telescope.
It is not surprising to see a trebuchet, but the things inside the trebuchet are too strange.
Zhang Chunhua suddenly remembered that Shen Lang said that the Vulcan Cult already had gunpowder, and they had let off fireworks before, so they had to guard against it.
So what the enemy trebuchet is going to hit is not a stone, but a gunpowder bag?
But Zhang Chunhua now has a good understanding of gunpowder. If it is black gunpowder, it will not be very lethal to the city wall. The strongest lethality can only be erupted in a closed space.
"Everyone, get down!"
Zhang Chunhua gave the order, followed by two officers.
Immediately, all five hundred people on the 3,000-meter city wall lay on the ground.
"Don't stick your heart to the ground." Zhang Chunhua ordered again.
These orders were already very professional. In fact, there was no need for her to order. The knights of the Eastern Knights and Roland Knights were already very experienced.
"emission!"
"emission!"
Following the order of the Vulcan Priest.
"Swish, whoosh, whoosh..." Thirty trebuchets were thrown over, and thirty prototype gunpowder packs flew towards them.
Although this is a medium-sized trebuchet, the weight of each gunpowder bag is not heavy, so it directly projects a distance of 300 meters.
Several Vulcan priests watched this scene with blurred eyes.
The wrath of the god of fire is about to come to the world, and the next thing is an earth-shattering explosion.
Those Orientals will definitely be scared out of their wits and collapse directly.
The wrath of the Vulcan is enough to completely tear the three thousand meter city wall in front of it.
The Vulcan Priest glanced at Duke Austin, and the meaning was very clear.
Wait for a miracle to happen, Earl Austin.
The distance of three hundred meters arrived in an instant.
Soon, the thirty gunpowder packs fell violently.
"Boom boom boom boom..."
It was indeed an extremely shocking explosion, a series of explosions.
The explosion of each gunpowder bag alone is not shocking enough, but the explosion of thirty together is indeed amazing enough.
Almost the whole ground was shaking.
In an instant, the Liuli City Wall was completely covered by thick black smoke, as if it had completely disappeared.
The cavalry and horses under Earl Austin's command were also frightened, jumping up and down.
The Vulcan Priest said: "Your Excellency, have you seen it? This is the power of the Vulcan's Wrath. I think the enemy should have no living people left, so let them go to hell to repent. And this ugly city wall should have already died." Crushed."
Earl Austin frowned. The explosion at the moment is indeed shocking enough, but in his opinion, leading the knights to charge and fight is the real romance. If future wars only need such long-distance explosions, what's the point?
"Your Excellency, wait for the smoke to clear, and you will be able to see what the real hell is."
"This group of Orientals must have never seen such a weapon of a god before, and they will definitely be completely smashed to pieces."
"From now on, this fear will surely be engraved in the depths of their souls, so that they will never dare to set foot in the Western world again."
…………
The black powder smoke was too thick, and it was still in the valley, it took a long time for the smoke to dissipate.
Then……
The scene was a little embarrassing, the six-mile city wall was still there, even intact.
Earl Austin couldn't help but look towards the Vulcan Priest, what's going on?
Didn't you demonstrate very well like me before? The whole house was smashed to pieces in an instant. It was just an explosion.
And now that thirty Vulcan's Wrath exploded, the enemy's 3,000-meter city wall didn't even have a single damage.
The Vulcan priest said: "Your Excellency, the people on the city wall must have been killed. Some of the Vulcan's wrath are used to kill enemies, and some are used to destroy houses."
But a moment later, the face-slapping scene happened, and Shen Lang's five hundred troops got up from the ground with minimal casualties.
Earl Austin was astonished. The astonishing explosion just now couldn't kill the enemy?
Why is this so?
That's right. The explosion of the enemy's gunpowder bag just now has a really shocking visual effect. Why is the result so small?
There are several reasons.
First, the accuracy of the trebuchet was really bad. Most of the gunpowder bags hit the city wall directly, and then rolled to the ground. Eighty to ninety percent of the gunpowder bags exploded on the ground.
This city wall is not extremely strong, but it is also poured with cement and bricks, and it is more than one meter thick. And this gunpowder bag is only heavy, at most twenty catties of black gunpowder, and it is not in a closed environment, all the explosion energy has dissipated into the air, so it has no bullshit power against a city wall more than one meter thick.
Don't forget that when Jin Mulan attacked Zhenxi City, in the sealed city gate, more than 3,000 catties of black powder were used to forcefully blow down half of the city gate.
Second, even if four gunpowder packets hit the city wall, they did not explode immediately. Three of them were thrown off the city wall, and only one actually exploded on the city wall.
This gunpowder packs more than 20 catties of gunpowder and explodes on the ground, with everyone lying down, how much damage can it do.
Dozens of people were burned, big and small, but none were actually killed.
………………
Seeing this scene, Duke Austin said coldly: "Your Majesty, is this the Vulcan's Wrath you are talking about?"
The Vulcan priest was also very surprised and puzzled, but they couldn't be blamed for this. In Vulcan Cult, it is the alchemist who is responsible for making it, and their group of priests is responsible for promoting it.
It is the first time for the Vulcan Cult to use these gunpowder in actual combat.
Why is this so? When I did the experiment before, it was obviously powerful, why is it so clumsy now?
"Your Excellency, don't be impatient, we have another weapon." The Vulcan Priest said.
Earl Austin said: "I really can't understand why Bo Ji trusts you and reuses you, but I am willing to give you another chance, but if it doesn't work this time, leave everything to us."
The Vulcan Priest said: "Your Excellency, please wait and see."
Then, with a wave of the Vulcan priest, hundreds of Vulcan warriors rolled out hundreds of carts.
If Shen Lang saw this scene, he would definitely exclaim.
Divine machine arrow?
The Vulcan Cult is so powerful that they made rocket launchers so early?
Because there are nine tubes on each cart, and inside each tube is a rocket.
It's not a modern rocket, but an ancient rocket, a two-meter-long giant arrow with something like a cannon baton tied to the shaft.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Chunhua couldn't help but be shocked. The weapon of the Vulcan Cult looks very tall.
Although I don't know what it is, it looks very powerful. It really feels like an ancient Katyusha rocket launcher.
"ignition!"
The Vulcan Cult Priest gave an order.
Then, a truly amazing scene happened.
"Whoosh whoosh..."
This picture really looks like the launch of a Katyusha rocket launcher.
One after another, the rockets dragged their long tail flames and shot towards the city wall hundreds of meters away.
There are nine rockets on each trolley, a total of hundreds of small trolleys, and thousands of rockets are fired at once.
in an instant.
It's really like thousands of meteor showers smashing away.
This visual effect is simply making people pee. Not scary, but amazing.
In the modern world, there are only hundreds of rocket launches in military dramas at once. All of a sudden, thousands of rockets roared out, which was simply too beautiful.
Earl Austin was stunned. Has the war turned into this?
This is another kind of romance.
Zhang Chunhua stared blankly at this scene, she only had one thought in her mind.
This Vulcan Priest is just as exaggerated as Shen Lang.
"Squat down a little bit!" Zhang Chunhua ordered.
Shen Lang had already experimented with rockets as a weapon, and then gave up directly.
It looks great, but combat effectiveness? It's not bad for attacking dense enemy arrays, but for attacking city walls?
Which genius came up with this idea?
"Whoosh whoosh..."
These thousands of rockets are amazing, and they can fly far and far.
It flew directly over a thousand meters, and flew directly over the top of the city wall.
Zhang Chunhua and the warriors on the city wall looked up at the rockets flying overhead, and then flew directly to a few hundred meters behind the city gate before falling.
Who are they going to hit? Where is this going?
The Vulcan Cult's second wave of rocket attacks has even more stunning visual effects.
But the result was zero, the angle was adjusted too high, and they all flew over the city wall.
Both sides peek at each other.
Earl Austin stopped talking and turned to look at Vulcan Priest.
Zhang Chunhua looked towards the Vulcan priest with beautiful eyes, your attack method just now was too good-looking, is there any more?
The Vulcan Priest said hoarsely: "Count Austin, there is actually nothing wrong with our weapons, but the accuracy is not enough, we need to adjust it, please give us..."
Before she could finish speaking, Earl Austin directly raised his hand to stop her.
"Your Excellency Priest, I can see that your Vulcan's Wrath weapon is indeed very powerful and can indeed change the entire war, but that will be in the future, not now, so leave the next war to us."
The Vulcan priest was very bitter, and said loudly: "Your Excellency, please give us another chance..."
Earl Austin said: "Your Majesty, I know that you want to show off. You need to give an explanation to the High Priest and Di Boss, and you must not disappoint her trust. But please believe me, I may behave Very arrogant, but I don't have much prejudice in my heart. I really saw the power of your weapons. The Vulcan Cult is indeed powerful and awe-inspiring. But at least the weapons in your hands are not mature enough, this is just a small Fight, so please leave it to me next?"
"In addition, my awe of the Vulcan Cult has not changed. You are just a low-level priest, and your Vulcan Cult should have stronger weapons in their hands. Are you satisfied with me?"
"Your Excellency Priest, can I lead my army to attack the enemy's city wall now?"
The young Vulcan Priest stepped back and said, "Your will."
………………
Earl Austin did not lie against his will. He has traveled around the world in the past ten years, and he has indeed seen a lot.
Although the results of the two rounds of gunpowder attacks by the Vulcan Cult just now were very ugly, he could still see that this weapon was indeed amazing, and once it matured, it would directly overturn the entire war.
I, Austin, am not an ignorant, but at least the war is still in the hands of our group of warriors.
The tall Duke of Austin looked at the 3,000-meter city wall, which was covered with thick smoke and black marks, but it was stronger than expected.
But no matter how strong it is, it is still small, with only five hundred defenders.
The Duke of Austin shouted: "The army is in line!"
Immediately, 10,000 troops assembled and lined up, fully armed.
Duke Dibos is extremely rich, so every soldier is equipped with iron armor, almost armed to the teeth.
All of the 10,000 siege troops were tall Hercules, carrying siege ladders over six meters long.
The Duke of Austin climbed to a nearby hillside, commanding the battle from a commanding height.
He is very arrogant, but when the battle really comes, he is an absolutely calm general, no matter how weak the enemy is, he is absolutely meticulous.
His position at this time is higher than Zhang Chunhua's city wall, and he can clearly see the defense on the city wall.
He knew that in the defense of the city in the east, a large number of bows and arrows, rolling logs, boulders, rolling oil, etc. would be prepared.
But there are no orientals here, their supplies are too lacking, and their preparations are too hasty, and even this city wall was built not long ago.
There are only 500 people on the 3,000-meter city wall, and each person has to defend 6 meters on average. How is this possible?
10,000 people charge and attack the city, and it can be taken in half an hour at most.
The assembly is complete!
Earl Austin drew out his huge sword and shouted, "The army is attacking the city!"
"Well……"
A long horn sounded.
Immediately, Austin's 10,000 siege army began to charge.
This is a very professional army, even when charging, it is not scattered at all, full of special rhythms.
Instead of running wildly at the beginning, it gradually accelerates, faster and faster, faster and faster.
The charge of the tens of thousands of troops is still neat and tidy, which looks really a visual enjoyment, like a torrent of steel.
"Bang bang bang bang..."
With the charge of tens of thousands of troops, the whole ground began to tremble.
Earl Austin's estimation was not wrong, the 10,000 army could capture Zhang Chunhua's city wall in at most half an hour. Shen Lang's defenders are very powerful, but the number of them is small, and one person will never be able to defend the six-meter city wall.
It didn't even take half an hour for Austin's 10,000 troops to take the six-mile city gate at most in a quarter of an hour.
The army charged faster and faster, and the shouts in their mouths became more and more passionate.
"Go, go, go."
"Charge, charge."
"For the sake of the empire, for Duke Dibos, kill all these orientals, kill them all."
The 10,000 army is getting closer and closer to the city wall, getting closer!
Zhang Chunhua squinted his eyes, overlooking the ten thousand enemy troops on the city wall.
It's almost there, it's almost all in the range.
It's really distressing, the explosives that have been made with great difficulty for more than a month will be used up so much at once.
Zhang Chunhua waved his hand.
Two officers behind him waved flags.
Immediately, all the defenders on the left and right of the city wall got down, hid behind the battlements, and kept their hearts away from the ground.
This posture seems to be a group of small animals trying to avoid the earthquake.
When Duke Austin saw this scene, his expression changed dramatically.
It's so abnormal, my army is about to rush under the city wall, why did the oriental defenders above get down instead.
In the past ten years, he has been taking risks everywhere, and cultivated a beast-like intuition.
At this moment, he felt the mortal danger, and the hairs all over his body stood up instantly.
"The army stops, stops!"
The Duke of Austin roared, the messengers on the mountain were stunned, and then waved the flag.
The 10,000 siege army was astonished, but they obeyed the order and stopped.
Earl Austin's scalp was numb, and after a pause for a few seconds, he issued another order: "The army disperses, retreat, retreat..."
This is a very good fighter, so decisive.
Although he didn't understand, the 10,000 troops attacking the city pass turned around and prepared to retreat.
Can't get away here, because the valley is too narrow.
However……
It was too late.
The whole world fell into an eerie silence.
At this time, an astonishing amount of explosives had already been buried under the feet of this 10,000-strong army.
This is not black powder, but a powerful explosive.
At this time, the long underground fuses continued to burn, and sparks continued to swim towards a large amount of explosives.
In order to ensure the detonation, there are a total of dozens of fuses and dozens of fulminic acid.
Earl Austin glanced at the defenders on the city wall again, and found that they were still lying on the ground, with their hands tightly clasped to their ears.
He knew it was too late!
Then, he quickly covered his ears.
Tick, tick, tick.
The 10,000 siege army below just finished turning around and was about to retreat.
The tens of thousands of troops behind were watching all this in silence and strangely.
tick!
Time is up!
The lead wire burned and detonated the fulminous acid.
Remercuric acid detonated the powerful explosives.
moment!
"Boom boom boom boom boom..."
this……
It was the real earth-shattering explosion.
The loud noise was like thunder, deafening.
This is the power closest to the power of heaven and earth.
Compared with the explosion of the gunpowder bag of the Vulcan Cult just now, it is more than ten times astonishing.
Instantly!
As if the earth dragon turned over, it was in the valley hundreds of meters in length and width.
The whole ground was suddenly lifted and torn apart!
And on this piece of ground, ten thousand siege troops stood densely.
They were fully armed, not only with armor, but also with shields.
But all to no avail.
In front of an astonishing amount of explosives, their bodies looked so fragile.
It is directly smashed to pieces.
Countless corpses, countless broken arms and stumps flew into the sky.
"Boom boom boom boom..."
A series of explosions continued continuously.
The entire ground, the entire city wall of Liuli was trembling.
A powerful shock wave swept towards both sides of the valley.
As if the wind was blowing the wheat waves, even though the tens of thousands of Earl Austin's troops were hundreds of meters away, they fell to the ground one after another as if swept by a hurricane.
The nearest soldier even flew out directly.
Then, the whole world seemed to lose its sound.
There was a roar in everyone's ears, and the whole brain seemed to explode.
Earl Austin was not far from the explosion point. When the explosion happened, he felt that his body was directly blown away several meters.
"boom!"
His majestic body hit the cliff hard, and then rolled down.
But he was too strong, he jumped up suddenly, and stood up straight again.
"Pfft..." A mouthful of blood spat out from his mouth.
Then, he shook his head desperately, trying to make himself see and hear clearly.
The shock wave of the explosion was too strong, and other people would have died long ago, but Earl Austin only had some concussions.
Fortunately, he covered his ears in time, otherwise the eardrum must have been shattered at this time.
He slapped his head desperately, trying to wake himself up immediately.
"The messenger, the messenger..."
"Squire, squire..."
Earl Austin yelled, but the world seemed to be silent, and he couldn't even hear his own voice for a while.
After recovering his vision a bit, he found that there were no orderlies and attendants anymore. The dozens of warriors who were around him just now were all dead, bleeding from seven holes, broken breastbone, and died a terrible death.
Not everyone was as strong as him, and survived being so close to the explosion.
The entire valley was shrouded in dust, and it was almost impossible to see anything.
The explosive power of Shen Lang is astonishing, but there is no smoke, and there is not much flame, it just blows up countless dust.
It seemed to be raining in the sky.
Countless gravel, countless blood, countless broken limbs and arms, all fell down one after another.
After a good few minutes!
All dust settled.
Earl Austin finally saw clearly, and then he really saw hell.
The entire army was wiped out, and his 10,000 siege army was all dead, perhaps not even a single survivor.
Is there such a battle in this world?
In this moment, ten thousand people were all dead, and their bodies were smashed to pieces.
It is indeed dead!
The most poisonous woman's heart, Zhang Chunhua buried a lot of explosives underground in this valley, and there is no dead spot.
Crowded in this area, let alone 10,000 people, even 20,000 people were all killed.
In the narrow valley, the crowded crowd is simply an excellent specimen of an explosion.
Even because there were too many explosives buried and the explosion power was too great, when it was attacked by the Vulcan Cult's catapult just now, the 3,000-meter city wall was safe and sound.
But now the city wall was damaged.
The explosion is still a little far away from the city wall, so the shock wave cannot damage the solid city wall. However, the explosion directly blasted the hundred-jin boulder out, smashing it hard on the city wall, forming large pits.
Zhang Chunhua, a dead woman, was afraid that the power would not be enough to blow up the enemy, so she added weight twice later.
As a result, he almost smashed through his own city wall.
Earl Austin looked towards the priest of the Vulcan Cult. The young woman got up from the ground with a face full of despair, even doubting her life.
Vulcan's Wrath is obviously the secret weapon of the Vulcan Cult.
Why do these orientals also have it in their hands, and it is even stronger, even more than ten times stronger.
The weapon in Shen Lang's hand is the real wrath of the gods.
Why is this so?
Earl Austin couldn't help thinking of a sentence from the East, which hurts peace.
East to East, West to West.
Your Excellency Shen Lang, why did you come to the east, why did you come to my family's land, and slaughter my soldiers like this?
My brave soldiers can die on the battlefield, they can die by the enemy's knife, but why die under this mysterious power.
Hell, here is hell.
War has changed!
"Ah... ah... ah..."
Earl Austin let out a roar like a beast.
