Chapter 211: Battle for the Mineral Vein

Twenty-four forest rock elements, more than 꺘땡 forest spiders.

Their confusion in the first few minutes ended, and the broad front line spread out like the wind blowing through the waves floating in the wilderness, moving forward with the wind.

What blocks their path is the double-layered fortification built by the musketeers. Called a fortification, 껩늀 is a large hole used to block the footsteps of elemental beings. Musket fire is arranged in the first line of defenses to meet the enemy, while supporting artillery is placed in the second line of defense.

The forest spiders have hunting spiders to contend with them. As soon as they stop, the fatal blow from the musket will quickly hit them.

눂Go ahead and kill the forest spider with a speed advantage. If you hit it with a musket, you can kill it with one hit.

A scout hunting spider entangles a forest spider.

Soldiers responsible for supporting the artillery with infantry in the second line of fortification positions.

Clean the barrel and confirm that no impurities remain.

Add explosives according to the quantity of the medicine package, and use different units of explosives to attack enemies at different distances - that is something that needs to be paid attention to with the direct-fire artillery. For this light direct-fire artillery to supplement the infantry firepower, the soldiers only need to add the already weighed Open the medicine bag and pour it all in.

No need to think about the ratio.

Standardized process.

Push the lead bullet into the bottom of the barrel and shoot to control the rotation of the small cannon on the bracket. The total length of this small long-barreled gun with a diameter of forty times can reach 1.4 meters.

In order to manufacture a bracket that can self-rotate and be fixed on the ground to improve the stability of firing, the bracket accounts for ten percent of the cost of this set of infantry support firepower.

After the standardized process, two soldiers can quickly complete the reloading task within ten seconds.

"Seventh row, missed, the muzzle is too high, lower it."

The observation is timely reported to the artillery piece based on the impact point of the artillery shell. In order to avoid affecting the judgment of the adjacent platoon, they must put their own platoon number at the front of the report.

"Fifth row, wiping bullets, muzzle to the right..."

"Eight rows, hit confirmed..."

"Sixth row, reloading completed...hit confirmed"

Watch the soldiers reload, aim, and fire in an orderly manner.

Repeat this process again.

Of course they are afraid. Even if they know that they will not die, they are still afraid.

If Hackett puts aside his own fluctuating emotions and observes, he will naturally find that some cannons are not even suitable for large lead bullets when loading and accidentally slip the cannonballs to the ground.

Their officers were all standing in the line, and the soldiers naturally had no reason to retreat.

What do the adventurers do for them? The most powerful fireball spell mastered by the adventurers is only 45 meters (150 feet) away. Forty-five meters is enough in close combat, but on a vast battlefield, this distance is stretched.

The caster is protected on the second line of defense, which is not even enough for the monster's body.

I heard that some improved spells have longer range and greater power, but those are the collections of magic families... If they learn these improved spells, why would they come to a dangerous world to become mercenaries?

Although these large muskets... Hackett has learned a lot of terms about weapons from this gray army these days. He knows that the vibrating weapons among these soldiers are called muskets.

So this thing that looks somewhat similar to a musket is the largest musket among them.

Each shot of these large muskets is not as powerful as the fireball spell cast by the caster. The fireball spell directly hits the target and can destroy its vegetation and rock shell protective layer with a violent explosion, causing the target to burn.

But it has a range beyond Hackett's imagination, a very fast rate of fire, and an excellent hit rate.

Each direct hit can take away the protective layer on the surface of Lin Yan's element, forcing him to raise his thick arms in front of him to act as a shield under the impact, slowing down his progress.

Chang Heng took a deep breath and sweated in his heart.

This should be the most difficult head-on confrontation he has ever had without the command of a leader, setting up his own lines and controlling his troops.

In the future, there will be more tasks like this that he will carry out alone, and the leader cannot completely take into account people's livelihood and military affairs.

He knows it very well.

Give instructions to the spellcasters who were brought here. The members of their expedition will not die, but the death of these people is real death.

"Stand still here on the second line of defense. We will need your fire support. All attack instructions will be issued by him."

Chang Heng looked at the officer who gathered himself in an instant and stood up straight.

"If they are in danger, remember to protect them. I will go to the front to observe and direct the battle."

And going into battle.

He is the captain and the leader of the chasseurs. He is the best precision shooter in this army, and no one can match him.

The forest spiders running at the front have already passed the marker they planted on the ground, which means that they have officially entered the attack range of the musket.

He blew the whistle, and the officer listening to the whistle blew the whistle to pass the message to other officers.

A series of sharp and rapid whistles.

The adventurer felt dazed when he heard the voice. The soldiers had already followed the sight on the gun and pulled the trigger at the target they were aiming at.

Rifle fire pointing 늄.

A continuous stream of white mist floated in front of the fortifications, spreading like a spreading wave from the center of the position one step slower than the whistle, forming a thick wall of light white mist.

The brief and clear sound of musket fire and the slightly dull sound of small-caliber artillery interweave, accompanied by the hissing of forest spiders and the earth-shaking steps of forest and rock elementals.

They are protecting the territory they inhabit, and the expedition team is fighting for the future.
