Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Facing a cannon charge is really something that requires great courage!  Every time a giant cannon shell falls, a huge shock wave sets off countless death-inducing death, and every time it takes away more than a dozen lives, this is undoubtedly a huge test for the hearts of the soldiers in the array!

    Fortunately, the rate of fire of the thirty-six-pound heavy gun is almost unbearably slow. The rate of fire of a few minutes and the inaccurate shooting make the power of the artillery weapon more than a deterrent.  effect.  On the several-mile charge road from the Royal City of Spain to the Castle of Santiago, the number of deaths among the charging soldiers of the Spanish army was ultimately controlled to less than 200, resulting in a 20% reduction in the number of soldiers.

    Along the way, soldiers stood in neat queues and marched on the muddy road against the roar of cannons.  The spearmen in the array were arranged in three dense rows. Each row had forty people in front and ten columns in depth.  At the four corners were soldiers with arquebuses arranged in dense formations.  There are two Japanese detachments wandering around, waiting for opportunities to launch a small-scale attack.

    All the soldiers in the phalanx had firm expressions and steady steps. Even under the roar of the cannons, their faces remained unchanged. Under the command of the squad commander's melodious whistle, they marched to the beat of the drum. At this time, even the earth seemed to  It was also trembling with their footsteps.

    At this moment, during this hellish charge, this originally neat formation was opened one after another by the cannons, and the broken limbs and arms were blown away dozens of meters away, and the soldiers were covered with their companions.  With their blood, they still braved the artillery fire and maintained a strict formation. When their companions fell, the back row quickly followed up, enduring the fear of their companions' broken bodies hanging on their bodies and marching forward!

    The real Spanish square!  The military formation with the strictest discipline in human history and the best expression of human infinite courage and will!  A battlefield spectacle that could only appear in the age of matchlocks appeared in front of Li Zhe at this moment!

    Even the roar of the cannons, this moment is more like a tribute to the courage of the Spanish warriors!

    ¡­¡­

    Seeing that the enemy's phalanx had entered, Li Zhe had to withdraw from the fort and go to the city wall to set up defenses. Sixty or seventy pirates, each holding an M14 rifle in their hands, stood beside the city wall, facing the approaching enemy at the bottom of the city.  Spanish army.  Seeing the enemy's order and tenacious will, even the most ferocious pirates have a confused expression on their faces!

    Li Zhe smiled and shouted to the pirates:

    "Haha! Brothers, it's up to us now! Get ready to fight!"

    The pirates responded with a roar, placing their rifles on the city wall, lying on it and aiming towards the city.

    Li Zhe shouted loudly behind the pirates:

    "Don't be nervous! Brothers! Keep your guns steady, and fire again when you are within eighty meters. Don't be anxious. The enemy's matchlocks can't hit you. Theirs is heavy and clumsy.  Compared with the good guns in your hands, these things are just fire sticks! Now, you can think of them as rabbits or pheasants. The difference lies in how many of them you can hit."

    The pirates' nervousness relaxed a little.

    Unwilling to be left alone, Xiao Lizi turned to Li Zhe and shouted:

    "Mr. Li! Then I must be the one who has hunted the most. When I was in my hometown, I was a good hunter!"

    ¡°Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Brother Zhang Wu next to him stretched out his hand and hit him on the head with a snap.

    "How can a child, who is not good at shooting a gun, be good at shooting a musket? He will brag!"

    Ha ha ha ha!  The pirates all laughed!

    Li Zhe smiled approvingly and nodded to the young man. Standing on the tower, he took out his RPG again. In the envious eyes of the pirates, he aimed at one of the Spaniards from a distance.  A commander wearing a top hat.

    With a bang, the tail of the rocket launcher shoots out tail flames, and a trajectory visible to the naked eye shoots towards the enemy.

    The Spanish commander, Fernando, was looking at the situation in Santiago Castle with a monocular. This charge was the largest one he could organize, and it was also the last desperate fight of the Spanish in Manila. No matter what,  All must succeed!

    He handed over the specific command to his subordinates and stood at the rear with great ambition.  Santiago Castle is very small and there won¡¯t be many people there. After this wave of thousands of people¡¯s attack has passed, the enemy will definitely collapse. Although the group of pirates can defeat the navy with more people and more ships, they will not be able to compete with the heroic Spanish Royal Army.  Against the enemy, they will definitely taste the bitter fruit of failure.  He was convinced of this!

    Then in his sight, he saw Li ZhejianHe was carrying a rocket launcher on his shoulder and firing at him. In an instant, fire flashed in his sight, and Fernando could vaguely see Li Zhe smiling in his direction!  Then in his surprise, a violent fire flashed before his eyes, and the huge darkness drowned poor Fernando!

    As soon as the battle began, the Spanish commander, Don Fernando, was killed by a high-explosive bomb fired by an RPG!

    The launch of Li Zhe¡¯s rocket is like a signal!  Immediately, dozens of M14s on the city wall fired in unison. Individual firearms from modern times and individual firearms from the Age of Discovery began a peak showdown spanning four hundred years of time and space!

    The roar of countless muskets raged on the battlefield, and countless blood flowed across the battlefield. The Spanish phalanx suffered huge losses as soon as it came up. In this era of the advantage of long-range weapons, its formation was too dense. Even if the pirates were not good at marksmanship,  It is also enough to cause a certain hit rate.

    ??As for the Spanish matchlocks, due to range issues, they have not yet formed a volley.  With its poor hit rate, it was really no different from a fire stick, and it posed almost no threat to the pirates hiding behind the city wall.

    For a time, the pirates' momentum increased greatly, and they kept making all kinds of weird whistles. They were excited and excited at the same time, and they were ejaculating heartily at the same time!

    "Look! They are really fire sticks!" Little Plum shouted happily.  He clearly saw the enemy's matchlock aiming and shooting hard, but it couldn't hit the target at all.

    At this moment, the pirates finally understood the power of the muskets in their hands. This kind of thing has a long range, great power, extremely accurate, and extremely fast shooting speed. It almost overturned everything the pirates knew about muskets!  No matter how you look at it, it is much more powerful than foreign muskets!  Simply unheard of!

    Everyone couldn¡¯t help but look at the guy over there who was wrapped in steel¡ªLi Zhe!  It seems that this guy is not just as simple as having extraordinary personal power. This weapon, which is like an artifact, is enough to make countless people crazy!  Being able to obtain such weapons, Li Zhe's mystery also made everyone look forward to it. Where did he get these weapons that are far more powerful than foreigners?

    But Li Zhe stood on the crenellations of the city wall and wreaked havoc, fully enjoying the power of modern firearms!

    When firing the rocket launcher was not enough, he took out the special Gatling he carried with him, held it in his hand and roared hysterically.  A long tongue of fire plowed back and forth along the edge of the private square. Every time a bullet hit, flesh and blood flew everywhere, tendons were broken and bones were broken. The huge blood hole immediately took away all the life of the person.  This weapon is the nemesis of dense infantry charges.  Under Gatling's fiery sickle, the Spanish phalanx was quickly cut off two layers, and a full two to three hundred Spaniards fell under Li Zhe's Gatling!

    Li Zhe¡¯s situation quickly attracted the attention of the Spaniards. A commander was so horrified that he pointed his finger at Li Zhe and shouted:

    "Kill him! Kill that devil!"

    The soldiers woke up from a dream, and their firepower quickly began to concentrate. Several small cannons in the center of the phalanx and countless matchlocks began to fire in his direction. Ding, ding, ding, ding, causing sparks to appear all over his body!

    Li Zhe was about to dodge. Unexpectedly, a shell from a three-pound cannon came and hit the Gatling in his hand. It directly cut off half of the Gatling's barrel, and the huge impact was transmitted to  With his arms, he flew the other person into the air, spun around half a circle, and landed five or six meters away on the city wall.

    This fall made Li Zhe miserable!  The muscles and bones in his body were broken, and the skin and flesh of his left forearm almost grew again. The metal armor on the left half of his body was also distorted and completely lost its shape. Gatlin was completely turned into a twisted piece of waste.  The pirates were horrified to see the iron.

    Isn¡¯t this inhuman guy dead?  Everyone was shocked!  No one believed he could still survive!

    But when Li Zhe staggered back to his feet, the pirates immediately burst into a deafening cheer!

    At this time, the brave and almost invincible Li Zhe has become the backbone of everyone, and everyone's hearts are following him!

    ¡­¡­

    Depend on!  Sure enough, problems can arise if you are too pushy!  Just as Li Zhe got carried away and wreaked havoc, he was knocked into a somersault. Although the Spanish Army's three-pound cannon was not very powerful, it was still fatal to the human body once it hit!  I almost sent Li Zhe to his grandma¡¯s house!  Li Zhe was so scared!

    Li Zhe was hit in the head with a blow, so I don¡¯t need to say more. It¡¯s better not to be so tough and fight normally!  Take out the individual artillery - the rocket launcher to challenge the enemy, lie on the crenel and name the enemy's cannons one by one!  After a while, the only dozen or so small cannons in the Spanish phalanx were all shot down.  Firepower is even moreBig reduction.

    By this time, the Spaniards had reduced their numbers to half, and most of the middle and upper-level commanders had been killed by the pirates. The barely maintained formation was fragmented and had lost its due role.  And the most desperate thing is that at this moment, he has not yet rushed within fifty meters of the castle!

    The arquebusiers in the formation were the first to be hit. A total of 300 soldiers had been lost at this time. The remaining spearmen and indigenous soldiers were even more frightened. Their morale was close to collapse under the repeated attacks.  .

    Go!

    Go ahead,

    At this moment, things are getting worse!

    There was a sudden shout from the left side of the Spaniard, and countless flags were raised like a forest. A large number of people rushed out from the direction of the Physiological Man settlement in the west.  Each hand held simple swords, guns and clubs, and there were thousands of them. They lined up in a huge fan and rushed towards the remaining Spaniards on the battlefield who were about to collapse!

    In the formation, you can vaguely see the grandmothers, grandfathers, sisters-in-law and daughters-in-law who used to be groveling and flattering to the Spaniards. They are all gnashing their teeth and murdering the Spaniards with ferocious faces. The docility of the physiological people in the past,  At this time, everything turned into a life-threatening hatred!

    Of course, the largest number of people is the strong young man who rushes to the front. The tall and strong man at the front is holding a big flag soaring into the sky and shaking it constantly. The flag flying high is embroidered with  It is a ferocious and extremely beautiful phoenix!  (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to (this site) to subscribe and reward.
