"Hurry, hurry up, work harder!"

"Ouch!"

"Hurry, push hard!"

"Oh hey..."

Luo Gang, who was dark and thin, had gaps on his lips, and had a red plateau on his cheeks. While urging the first education regiment to urge the soldiers of the engineering battalion to push the crossbows and cannons forward with a crutch.

After he went to the plateau, he had a very serious reaction and fell ill in three days. If others fell ill, they could go to Shitoucheng on the mountainside to recuperate, but Luogang could not recuperate because he was the only professional engineer expert in the Great Education and Chemical Corps, and he also repaired firearms. Since cannons and muskets had not been invented, there were no independent firearms in the new army of the Song army, but distributed small firearms to crossbowmen, and large firearms were classified as engineers. Therefore, the engineering department of the Knights Academy also cultivated the technology of large firearms.

The large firearm produced by Jiehe Shangshi Machinery Repair Center is a crossbow cart that is now being pulled by horses and pushed to the front line. The name of the crossbow cart is from Wuhaogu, but it is actually a wheel mounted on the Baniu crossbow and a tail frame that can be supported on the ground. This tail frame can be connected with a two-wheeled cart through a hook, thus becoming a crossbow cart similar to the modern European bronze artillery "cannon cart".

Because the design is not very reasonable and the structure is neither flexible nor solid. Therefore, these "bridges" are very difficult during the movement, and are damaged from time to time and need maintenance, which makes the engineers and crossbows team of the Great Education Regiment suffer a lot.

As the leader of the engineering engineer of the Great Education Regiment and also serves as the head of the crossbow artillery team, Luo Gang naturally could not leave these dozens of crossbow carts down the mountain to recuperate. As long as he gritted his teeth and persevered, he would be burning his life. He was really hard to be a master! In fact, with his talent, if he studied hard, he might be quite a big shot, but he was addicted to the path of construction and equipment. Now he had to be a miserable "technical man"... But the path he chose had to climb to the end!

"Preparation (Rogang is still a camp preparation), Alaya Pass has arrived!"

The escort team of the crossbows and cannon team, and his cousin, was also his black-faced man named Luo Li, who came up to help Luo Gang.

Luogang looked up and saw the cavalry and archers of the brigade lined up through the wide valley entrance. On the left side of the valley entrance, there was a huge pile of corpses, more than ten feet high, all of which were stacked together. Some men who should be Kashgar refugees, under the protection of the small team of Hexi Army infantry, pulled trucks of dead people from somewhere in the valley. It seemed that the battle in the valley was going very cruel!

Luo Gang, who had already seen many killings, didn't care much about the pile of dead people. He just took his eyes back and continued to pant and walk towards the battlefield confronting the right side of the valley.

At this time, the battlefield on the west bank of Kala Lake was quiet. Sanjar's army set out to defend and could not retreat. Xiao Heda was also calm. He just mobilized Chen Jian's cavalry to chase and kill the fleeing Kala Khan armed refugees; while asking for help from the central army in the rear, he transferred archers affiliated with seven infantry generals of the Hexi Army.

The seven infantry generals of the Hexi Army had a total of 42 archers (the Hexi Army did not have a border river crossbow), and there were more than 4,000 archers at full capacity. Now there are less than 3,300 archers to fight. They are not equipped with stubborn sheep horn bows, but stair bows with eight or nine dou or even one stone pulling force. They are also equipped with heavy arrows that break armor. Although their power is not as powerful as the border river crossbow, their effective range is at least nearly twice as large as the stubborn sheep horn bow (when riding a bow, using stubborn sheep horn as the main material).

Moreover, these archers are not traditional Song army archers who do not care about the correct archery, but elites in the Hexi army. Everyone can perform close-range shooting, and the hit rate is very high. The so-called "invincible theory of riding and shooting" is actually based on the fact that nomadic cavalry who are good at riding and shooting have higher archery skills. If they meet a archer who is also good at archery, they will basically not have any good endings.

Of course, although the archers of the Song army were not accurate, they had divine arm crossbows! In the Song army, the divine arm crossbows were usually responsible for precise shooting, and the archers provided the covering firepower. Therefore, the Song army infantry was never afraid of riding and shooting. If they were afraid of riding and shooting, they would have destroyed the Khitans who had finished the nomadic cavalry in the grassland.

As the Hexi Army archers continued to drive over, Sanjar, who was originally quite calm, was a little panicked. Originally, there were only more than a thousand crossbowmen in the Song army's battle formation to prepare for archery, but now there are three thousand more archers. On the Sanjar side, the Persian mercenaries' bows and arrows are not very powerful. Sitajik knights, Gur Knights and Garzni knights are not very good at playing bows and arrows, only Guram warriors are good at shooting. However, the knights on the Song army can also shoot arrows, but they just didn't take out the bows and arrows.

In addition, Sanjar also knows that professional infantry archers usually have a longer range of archers! This is something that the Guram Knight cannot compare with. Moreover, the enemy also has an amazing lethality crossbow. Although there are not many, the Guram Warrior's armor cannot block the crossbow arrows, and one shot through one, and the casualties will be greatly affected!

Time was slowly passing by Sanjar's hesitation and the confrontation between the two armies. Although the Song army received reinforcements from a large group of archers, they did not take the initiative to launch an "arrow battle", but instead lined up to wait. Just when Sanjar felt that the two sides were likely to confront each other until dark, Rogan's 18 crossbows were finally dragged onto the battlefield.

"What is this?" Sanjar said to himself.

"It seems to be a Roman crossbow!" The learned and talented Buhari replied, "It seems to be different..."

"Tell me my order," said Sanjar, "let the soldiers in the first ten rows squat down, and then overturn the carriage to defend against the enemy's crossbows!"

At the same time, Luo Gang, who was a little dizzy in his head, was reporting to Xiao Heda.

"Xiao Junji, all 18 crossbows have been in place. Each crossbow is equipped with 20 burst arrows and 20 ordinary giant arrows. Please order the military aircraft!"

Xiao Heda nodded, he raised his whip and pointed at the Persian infantry in the center of the enemy formation, "Open all the crossbows at them, and each crossbow cannon will first kill 5 burst arrows!"

"Here!"

Xiao Heda said again: "Tell the crossbowmen and archers to follow the crossbows and line up on both sides of the crossbows. When the crossbows are fired, then go forward and fire feather arrows. Each team of crossbows and archers fire ten rounds in a row.

The commander of the first cavalry general, the second general, the first infantry general, and the second general, each sends forward to protect the crossbowmen, archers and crossbows!"

"Here!"

"Here!"

The messenger responded and Rogang limped to the front line to mobilize his eighteen bifurcated carts. According to Xiao Heda's order, his bifurcated cannons had to shoot out 90 burst arrows in one breath. The number was not large, but it was an incomparable honor for the Persian infantry who had never been bombed by cannons!

In later records, they were the first batch of infantry in human history to be bombed by gunpowder weapons. Before the explosion rocket fell from the sky, these Persians squatted comfortably behind the cart that was overturned on the ground. They didn't know how lucky they were!

Kakka...

The Persians didn't squat for too long, and a sound of wooden boards breaking came. Except for a few burst rockets flying over the squatting Persians' heads, they landed somewhere. Most of the eighteen burst rockets shot out from the first wave were inserted into the lying cart.

"Haha, stupid pagan!"

"It's all shot on the wood..."

Before the Persians could reach their climax, a scene that shocked them appeared. With the harsh roars made by unknown reasons, the carts blocking them broke into pieces, and there were also many broken pieces, wooden boards, and wood chips, driven by some mysterious force, and then they fell heavily, and some even hit the Persians' heads.

What's going on?

It must be black magic!

Hurry and pray to the One Lord!

The Persians' enlightenment is much higher than that of the Karakhans. They have been converting to the Tianfang Sect for hundreds of years. Of course, they know that the correct way to deal with the devil is to pray... It is usually useful, as long as they encounter a real devil.

But this time, I don’t know if the Tianfang Sect could not control the devils on the Song Dynasty. Anyway, their prayers were useless, but the second wave of explosion rockets flew over quickly. Some of them hit the wooden board, some fell into the crowd, and some pierced directly into the human body! The screams immediately sounded, but they were already expected. So what should be praying is still praying, but the prayer is still ineffective... Boom boom boom boom!

Explosions were generated in the crowd, and fire suddenly flashed, followed by smoke rising, crying, screaming, and shrill screams. Of course, there were many people praying to Allah with a more pious attitude. But they got the wrong direction. Today, the ones that appeared on the battlefield were science, not magic. So, the third wave, the fourth wave, and the fifth wave of the burst rockets were quickly shot out.

"Allah! Is this black magic?" The learned and talented Buhari didn't know that there was a burst arrow, and he thought it was magic. He quickly turned it down from the horse's back, took out a blanket and spread it on the ground, and wanted to pray.

"Buhari, is it time to pray?" Sanjar looked a little strange, so he asked.

"Emir, have you not seen the pagans on the peach stone summoning the devil and are using magic to attack our soldiers? I want to pray to Allah..."

"Nonsense! That's not the devil or magic, that's the weapon of the Peach Blossom Stone Man, what's the gunpowder, something similar to Roman fire."

It's similar to the Roman fire? Buhari thought to himself: It's not a good thing, it seems that you still have to pray well...
