Eight hundred and seventeenth chapter iron cannon fire

Since the leader had died, the coalition gunners who had lost command were immediately in chaos. Some of the iron gunners wanted to turn over and escape, some were igniting the fuse, and some raised the iron guns to aim at the front, but they completely forgot that they had not loaded the ammunition. For a moment, all kinds of shouts were heard, and the first row of iron gunners instantly lost their combat power.

Yoshihiro Yoshihiro and Fukuoka Hiratsuka, who were watching the game in the back row, were also shocked by the scene in front of them. No one expected that the Hirado Iron Cannon was so far in range and so powerful that the blood of the dead and injured quickly dyed the ground beneath them black and red, and the wailing and screaming were gradually weakening, which shows that the death rate of the person who was shot was rising sharply.

"Kun Fukuoka! You come forward and command yourself! Be sure to launch an attack as soon as possible! Those who do not listen to the orders are beheaded!

Qiuyuejun, Kumamoto, ordered the spearman to come forward to meet the enemy!"

The bad scene in front of him made Yoshihiro's heart fall rapidly. When he saw the spearmen on both sides of Hirado's wings, he immediately made a decision.

Taking advantage of the gap that all the opponent's iron cannons were fired and the second round of shooting required a long time to prepare, the coalition forces must immediately respond correctly.

The iron cannon must be fired quickly, so that it can effectively prevent the opponent's spearman from going forward and fighting.

The iron gunner, who was not ready for shooting, had no power to fight back when facing the spearman.

After receiving the order, Hiratsuka Fukuoka and others rushed to their respective positions with their guards. However, what unexpected happened again, the Hirado Iron Cannon fired on the opposite side again, and more than a hundred coalition iron guns fell to the ground with their guns. The weakening howling sounded again in the fourth field. Before Hiratsuka Fukuoka rushed over, most of the iron gunners in the first row, who were still hesitating, had already begun to push and crowd each other and try to escape.

Yoshihiro's face turned pale, and he could not accept the reality in front of him.

In just a few dozen breaths, the Hirado Iron Cannon actually fired two rounds! This situation was something that Yoshihiro, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, had never seen or thought of it!

Once anything is in bad momentum, it will become even worse in the future.

Fukuoka Ritaka was strode forward with his guards, trying to stop the chaos in the front team as soon as possible and restore the soon-to-be defeat. At this moment, the five hundred coalition archers ordered to step forward were defeated by two hundred Hirado clans after a moment of contact.

The Ming stair archer used by the Hirado family archers, which was far beyond the longbow used by the coalition archers in the range. The three-edged steel archers directly ignored the cloth armor on the coalition archers. Before the opponent reached the range of the archers he was used to, the Hirado family archers had already set their bows and arrows to start shooting. After the four rounds of shooting, more than half of the coalition archers were killed or injured, and the rest ran back in panic.

Even if one is beaten and not fight back, even the bravest person cannot withstand this pressure. If he is a samurai led by the shogun Tokugawa Ie Hiroshi, he may have to take several rounds and shoot forward with the other party. However, these coalition forces have just been pieced together and are not familiar with each other. The fighting will is strong and weak, so how can he withstand such a blow?

Seeing the power, the leader of Hirado clan saw that he was in power, he gave an order and 200 archers strode forward to face the left-wing spearmen who were gathering in the whole team. He followed the order and stopped sixty steps away from the spear square formation, and then quickly lined up into a square formation.

After everyone's breathing was stable, the leader of the archer gave the order, and two hundred step bows pointed to the sky. With the sound of the bowstrings, two hundred triangular steel bows and arrows rose into the air and flew for a distance in the air. When they reached the sky above the phalanx of the coalition army, they turned around and rushed downwards.

The coalition spearmen on the ground had no way to avoid it, and could only bow their heads and shrink in despair, trying to avoid the vital parts. However, the steel arrows that could break the iron armor within a distance of 40 steps were thrust down with huge kinetic energy, and blood splashed everywhere, and wailed everywhere.

The spearmen were either thin iron helmets were pierced through, and long arrows were penetrated through the brain, or the bamboo armor on their bodies was chiseled open and pierced into their bodies. Anyone who was shot in the arrows would either die on the spot or lose their combat power in an instant.

Two hundred archers of Hirado fist shot eight rounds in just over twenty breaths. After exhaustion, they turned their grown arch back to their original formation. At dozens of steps behind them, the spearman of the left wing coalition army was killed and injured. At this time, the rattan player on the left had no time to arrive in front of the formation to provide cover.

All kinds of situations on the battlefield are changing rapidly. With the years of combat experience of Soohiichiro, the archers on both sides have lost their strength after shooting for several rounds, so the rattan players are not useful in the early stage. When the spearmen on both sides take over, the rattan players will step forward and press against the spears on the opponent.

However, the scene in front of him lost all his past experience. In less than a quarter of an hour, his side suffered heavy losses before he could fight against the enemy.

The opponent's range was far greater than that of the coalition forces, whether it was iron cannons or bows. The coalition forces suffered a great loss without knowing nothing about the strength of the Hirado family.

"What should I do if I send a letter to Lord Ruonian! The enemy spearman is coming to our army?!"

Yangang Nagamasa, the head of the Yangang family, asked urgently. Song Heiichiro looked up and saw that the right-wing spearmen of Hirado clan had already been heading towards him, while the left-wing coalition spearmen had just suffered a severe injury, and more than half of the seven hundred people were killed or injured. Akitsuki Nakaji was trying his best to shout the whole team, but it was obvious that the remaining samurai was already very upset.

"The rattan player stepped forward and held on! The remaining spearmen gathered their thorns from behind! Jumping in his hand and looking for a phone to rush forward!"

As soon as Song Heiichiro finished speaking, another sound of iron cannons like a burst of beans came, and the Hirado family iron cannons fired for the third time.

In addition to the casualties, most of the iron gunners in the first row of the coalition forces fled. As soon as the second row of iron gunners reached the front, they were hit by the head. The iron gunners facing the Hirado Iron Cannon in the middle were knocked down in a blink of an eye. Yuzhe suppressed the huge fear in his heart, and barely lined up in a horizontal row amid the scolding of Fukuoka Ritaka holding a long knife. The distance between the two sides quickly narrowed to about forty steps. Fukuoka Ritaka shouted repeatedly, and the scattered iron gunners who had already left began to move closer to each other, then loaded ammunition to ignite the fuse.

When they were ready to shoot, the 500 iron gunners of Hirado clan fired the fourth round before them. Although the coalition iron gunners were hit again this time, most of the remaining iron guns were successfully fired, hundreds of projectiles flew forward, and the Hirado clan iron gun array also screamed in succession. Nearly a hundred iron gunners fell to the ground. Fukuoka Hirataka, who was in charge of command, breathed a sigh of relief and immediately ordered the iron gunners to start cleaning and loading again.

In this period, the iron cannons and muskets are fired at the same time, and the loading speed is the first to complete the loading, which means that the balance of victory is tilting towards them.

The coalition iron gunners were rushing to clean up and load, and many people were busy looking at the enemy dozens of steps away. Just as they completed more than half of the launch procedure, the Hirado Iron Artillery Team started the fifth round.
