Steel, Guns, and the Industrial Party that Traveled to Another World

Chapter 14: Dragon rides on the face...don't rush in!

At noon, two companies from the boot camp arrived at Lake Town. The scout cavalry reported that the pirates still had not gone far. After gathering all the men and horses in the plan, the whole army had a good meal. Paul Greiman announced that the pirates Depart in the direction you are in.

In the evening, we finally saw the pirate team. They actually left a camp by the river. The people inside were cooking over a fire. There seemed to be four to five hundred people in total.

He secretly thought: "We don't have much advantage in numbers! But we have the bonus of modern army training methods. How can we be compared to this rabble?"

"Get into formation!" The officers of each company began to direct their soldiers, changing the columns into horizontal formations.

The pirates also discovered the slowly approaching army, picked up their weapons and ran out of the camp, facing this side in full formation.

A bearded man walked out from the middle and shouted: "Little boy of the Graiman family, are you ready for what grandpa wants? You can't wait to come here to pay your respects?"

After saying these words, the pirates around the bearded man burst into laughter.

Bryce asked: "Sir, what should I do? Do you want to attack?"

Paul thought regretfully: "Hmph! It would be great if we brought the big firecrackers here. I'm sure I can give them a drink."

The "big killer" made some time ago, after a period of experiments, it was found that the effect was not very satisfactory. At first, gunpowder was filled into the hollow iron ball and the grenadiers were asked to throw it hard, but the throw distance was quite unsatisfactory. .

After the explosion, it still posed a threat to the throwers. Many people were injured, and the misfire rate was extremely high. No wonder the grenadier's bomb-dropping function in "Total War" was so poorly designed that a row of grenades could not kill him if he hit it. several people.

Later, the amount of medicine was reduced and filled with clay pots, which could be thrown farther, but the power was reduced. The craftsmen racked their brains and put iron nails on the pots, which made them look a bit like the tribulus fireballs of the Song Dynasty.

After many modifications, in his eyes it was still a useless artillery piece, far from the hand grenades in the modern army, but a batch was still made for emergency purposes. But for such a batch of useless weapons, when I sent people to the recruit training camp overnight last night to recruit people, I forgot to inform them to bring them.

After grumbling in his heart, he raised his riding whip towards the pirates and proudly said, "Destroy them."

"Hold your weapons!!! Advance!!!" Bryce ordered loudly after receiving the instructions. Rows of horizontal lines formed a square formation, and the soldiers began to slowly advance forward.

Looking at our side's phalanx in uniform uniforms and relatively neat steps, it really looks like a strong army. Looking at the pirates' side, they are loose, uneven, and have no formation. It is simply a scene of the regular army encircling and suppressing the bandits. Flying Dragon Rider How can you lose face?

At this moment, the bearded man among the pirates suddenly shouted with wide eyes: "Kill these noble lackeys!!!"

Then all the pirates collectively "roared" and rushed towards this side desperately.

The territorial soldiers were able to advance steadily at first, but as the pirates got closer and closer, the soldiers in the phalanx were obviously a little panicked, especially the recruits who were participating in the battle for the first time, and the weapons in their hands were a little unsteady.

Then something very unpleasant happened. Some guy in the first row shouted loudly to cheer himself up: "Go!"

The phrase "charge" was like a signal, making all the soldiers feel as if they had been tightened and then suddenly loosened. They yelled and started to rush forward hysterically. After a while, the originally tight phalanx Everything was in disarray, and the officers were also rushed forward, leaving only Bryce and the internal guards who did not dare to take half a step away from the count.

Soon, the soldiers and the pirates were fighting together, leaving a dumbfounded Paul, riding on the horse and muttering to himself: "Things shouldn't be like this! It was fine just now, why did it turn into a pig? Woolen cloth?"

Bryce scolded: "These idiots can't hold up the wall with mud."

The pirates were all extremely vicious, and the soldiers who had lost the support of their formation and had basically no actual combat experience were obviously no match for this group of desperadoes. Within half an hour, the balance of the battlefield began to tilt toward the pirates.

As expected, one soldier finally tried his best to block the opponent's weapon, then turned around and ran away.

Then, for the second and third times, all the soldiers gradually began to run back with a roar. The officers shouted to stop them. Bryce ran over and whipped the retreating soldiers with a riding crop.

However, all efforts were in vain.

"My lord, retreat! I will lead the troops on horseback to break up the rear." Seeing that the situation could no longer be restored, Bryce had no choice but to return to the little earl and suggest retreat.

The earl stared hard at the bearded pirate who was still chasing the defeated soldiers, bit his mouth tightly and loosened it for a moment, then reluctantly said: "The cavalry has retreated, retreat!"

Then he turned the horse's head and whipped the horse hard. The painful horse began to run wildly in the direction from which it came.

"Everyone who is still riding a horse, follow me and cut off the rear!"

After breaking off, Bryce retreated while gathering the broken troops, and finally got rid of the pirates' pursuit. About an hour later, they caught up with Paul. After counting the number of people, including the missing soldiers, the troops lost more than 30 people. More than 50 people were injured.

"What a shame!" The earl was about to cry without tears. In addition to his father's failure, this was the second time he was defeated by pirates. If word spread, his family would probably be reduced to nothing in the northwest bay. A laughingstock.

He gritted his teeth: "Find those two bastards!!!"

Bryce asked in confusion: "Those two bastards? Which two?"

"The one who shouted to charge without listening to the order! And the one who retreated and escaped without authorization! I will let them dig in the mine for the rest of their lives!"

There is no mistake. One post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, one read!

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Let's go back to Huxin Town first! We must sum up the lessons learned from this operation!"

That night, each officer was asked to write a summary of the battle, and then the young count returned to his bedroom and closed the door. While the officers were racking their brains and scratching their heads, Butler Philip heard the sound of banging and banging things coming from the lord's bedroom, but he did not knock on the door to ask. The young master really needed to vent.

The next day, as soon as Paul arrived in the lobby, he met an excited Bryce.

"Lord Earl, look who's back!"

I saw two people standing next to him, one was an old man who was about 50 years old and very energetic, and the other was a young man who looked very young, probably about 20 years old. Both of them saluted him.

"Who are these two?"

"Ser Schroeder and his squire Joyce, Erwin Schroeder. You saw him when you were a child. Oh, by the way, you didn't remember that time."

The old man said slowly: "Please allow me to introduce myself..."

Which reader can give me a comment? Playing single player is so boring. (╥╯^╰╥)

Of course it would be better if you have tickets. \\(^o^)/~
