Warlord: King of All Clans

If a modern military enthusiast were to watch the battle on site, he would be surprised to find that this is just a small-sized, conscienceless cannon.

But the fireworks master at Hewan would tell him that it was just a large firework shell.

The so-called explosive launcher was inspired by the heavy mortar that was still under development by the Riverbend gunners, as well as the fireworks that were already mature products.

Now that the fireworks tubes at Hewan can launch fireworks a hundred meters away, it means that they can also launch explosions a hundred meters away!

The only remaining question is how to ensure that it does not explode.

After experiencing countless failures, Strong has a secret weapon in his hands.

This newly developed explosive launcher looks like an ugly rocket launcher, but it is actually a large-scale firework shell with a diameter of twelve inches.

Once the large-sized firework shells are placed on the baffle, it becomes a simple mortar.

The spherical explosive pack weighing several kilograms, propelled by specially formulated propellant, can fly nearly two hundred meters and land on the enemy's position.

However, at present, the performance of this weapon is obviously not very reliable.

Due to the errors caused by weapon accuracy and gunner operation, some of these explosives fell dozens of meters away and exploded in the open space under the city wall.

Some of them crossed the city wall, and a dull roar was heard from behind the wall.

Only seven or eight shells successfully landed on the city wall.

Suddenly, continuous explosions were heard, bricks and stones on the city wall flew everywhere, the parapets collapsed, and the defenders were thrown into chaos.

A black powder bomb larger than a human head fell into the crowd, and the shock wave knocked away more than a dozen soldiers around it.

Many soldiers with blood coming out of all their orifices staggered to their feet, then fell down again in a daze.

The Kobolds' black powder formula has been researched to the extreme, almost reaching the power limit of black powder. Although it cannot destroy city walls as quickly as modern explosive packs, its lethality is still very amazing when used against crowds.

In the eyes of mortals, this is the explosive flame of a mid-level extraordinary wizard!

The excited Kobold gunners hid behind the wooden baffles and quickly loaded the next round.

The shells made a lot of noise when hitting the city walls, but because the hit rate was so high, there were actually not many casualties, and the defenders immediately organized a counterattack.

The shortbows of the Western Border defenders had an astonishing firing rate. Hundreds of archers concentrated their fire at the same time, and the rain of arrows immediately enveloped the ogre gunners.

But Strong was obviously well prepared. Those not-so-big wooden baffles were just enough to block the small stature of the kobolds.

Only a few over-excited Gnoll gunners were hit by the rain of arrows because of their excessive movements, and they screamed in pain.

Braving the rain of arrows, the ogre gunner completed the second reloading, and another wave of sparse bombs fell on the top of the city.

The huge roar and the chaos it created were far more frightening than the actual casualties. Among the nearly one thousand defenders on the city wall, only dozens of them were killed or wounded, and the remaining people were demoralized and could not stand.

The commander of the garrison at Buck Fortress is named Valhan, the nephew of Talhanberk and a famous extraordinary knight.

He had seen mages from the south and alien shamans from the west, so he was no stranger to magic.

Valhan, who had just been promoted to the middle level, could already clearly sense the surge of magic power, but these weapons that seemed to be magic items did not produce any drastic fluctuations in magic power at all.

Finally, he could no longer sit still. "Gather the cavalry, follow me out of the city and kill them!"

After the three shells were fired, the gates of Buck Fortress opened wide and teams of Western cavalry poured out.

In order to disperse these ogre-headed men, the angry commander of the defending army brought 500 elite cavalrymen.

The ogre gunners screamed in fear, dropped all their weapons and equipment, got on all fours, and turned around and ran away.

Seeing the defenders coming out, Strong, who was hiding in the distance and watching the battle, felt relieved and said to Six, "It's your turn."

His explosive launcher was originally a counterfeit product, and it could only barely fire three shots without exploding. The kobold was short in stature and could not carry much ammunition.

Even if the Western Cavalry did not come out, the ammunition for the Kobold artillery had been used up and they would have to come back to replenish it.

After receiving Strong's order, Six was panicked. It was not until Strong shouted "Your people are going to be trampled to death!" that he mustered up the courage to climb up the unicorn and lead his own Boar Knights out of the dense forest.

The ogre-boar riders behind her were all new recruits who had never fought in a war, and most of them were not even adults. When they saw the aggressive Western cavalry coming towards them, they all hesitated to move forward.

Sikes mustered up his courage and shouted, "Pig Riders, charge!"

She took the lead, and before the other hog knights could react, the armored war pigs under their feet had already spontaneously followed behind Sheeks and started running.

The biggest advantage of the Gnoll Army is that they can walk in the mountains. After they approached Buck Fortress, they abandoned the flat World Tree Avenue and went into the forest on one side, walking through the forest and coming to the vicinity of Buck Fortress.

At this moment, he suddenly appeared from the woods, and by the time the other side noticed, the two sides were less than 300 meters apart.

The kobold gunner fled very quickly, but he could not outrun the warhorse and was soon caught up.

The kobold gunner was on all fours and was so short that the Western cavalry had a hard time killing him, so they simply rode their horses and trampled on him.

"Crush you lowly aliens to death!"

After Valhan rode his horse and trampled two gnolls to death, he suddenly realized that a large group of one-horned boars were rushing out of the dense forest not far ahead.

This is not a wild unicorn. No matter how ferocious a wild unicorn is, it will only attack herders and livestock, and will not attack a cavalry unit that is more than five times its number.

The bronze armor on their bodies reflected a golden luster, and the shields on their backs were also adorned with white dog-head life-saving flags.

Valkhan immediately shouted loudly, adjusted his troops, and went around the herd of unicorn boars, trying to disperse them with a rain of arrows.

These one-horned boars are much more threatening than the fleeing kobolds.

The Western Border cavalry were all skilled in mounted archery. Five hundred cavalrymen took out their grassland recurve bows and circumvented the front of the herd of unicorn boars while raining arrows.

These were all regular cavalry, and their arrows were not wolf-tooth bone arrows, but steel arrows shipped from the southern border. With the inertia of mounted archery, they could even penetrate heavy legion chain mail.

However, the sharp arrows hit the bronze armor of the unicorn boar, exploding and flying away, leaving only traces on it.

The kobold riders all lay tightly on the boar's saddles, hiding behind the bronze baffles.

Valkhan reacted quickly and took appropriate countermeasures, but he underestimated the speed of the charging horned boars.

The distance of three hundred meters was shortened to zero in the blink of an eye. The five hundred cavalrymen were unable to bypass the unicorn boar and were still caught up by it.

Hundreds of one-horned boars collided with the second half of the Western Border Cavalry.

These cavalrymen had to adjust their horses' heads, draw their scimitars, and engage in close combat with the boar riders.
