Chapter 144 That Thing is a Cannon

Chapter 144: That thing is called a cannon

Reaction? Should Zhao Fubo react? What kind of reaction should he have? In fact, before he reacted, his Song Yulin Army had already responded.

In the afternoon, the Yulin Army of the Song Dynasty, which was on guard on the shore, did not become lazy or form scattered after a certain period of time, as some people imagined.

Eighty black-armored cavalry were as they were when they had just got off the ship and lined up. They were like clay sculptures and wood sculptures, motionless. They gave people the feeling of a black iron wall, and if they bumped into it, they would inevitably be crushed to pieces.

"Sir, we are coming in the Mamluk cavalry, with a minimum of five hundred people!"

The high mast was topped by the lookout hand shouting downwards, the sound was like a wave from the trees, with surprise.

"Let's get off here, let's ask the horse team on the shore to act together. We want to find a spacious place! It's all residential buildings, and if it burns, I'm afraid the people will suffer a lot!"

Matt had no objection to this, just as stipulated in the "Rushan Military Order" of the Great Song Yulin Army, he should be kind and righteous to the Song people, but are foreigners... "Mamluk is a foreigner, with one head and one silver coin, but if he is obtained by these cavalry, then the people on our ship will lose!"

"Miss Juliana, when fighting, did we let our crossbows be released twice? You know their heads are full of silver coins!"

Juliana hates the "business smell" in the Song Dynasty's Yulin Army the most. The entire army is filled with dreams of reliing on the enemy's heads to get promoted and make money. In order to fight, these guys have a madness that is desperate for life when practicing.

Matt rolled Juliana's eyes with a thick face. Although his skin was not very good-looking, he knew that Juliana was a humane woman.

Matt accepted Juliana's rolling eyes calmly in his heart. After listening to the report from the lookout hand, he stretched out his hand and pointed in a direction.

"It's spacious enough over there and closer. If the chief is in a hurry, he will not be able to escape from behind them even if he calls!"

This is a flat beach. In front of the beach is a forest clearing with trees cut down. This open space may have entered through two intersections. Matt has already thought about it. When Zhao Fubo and the others arrived later, they would use crossbow bullets to seal the two intersections. As he said, no matter how much they called, they could not escape.

The practice on Datongbu Island is completely different from that on Felekai Island.

In addition to piercings or other necessary openings, the island of Ferai has planted easy-to-live coconut trees on all open spaces. And hopefully, in a few years, these places will not be suitable for vehicles and horses to pass through.

The goal is very clear. If attacked in the future, the people on the boat should not be easy to help the people on the shore. If you want to attack the Black and White Forts, you must attack head-only through the main road. On the main road, once you start fighting, it will never be easy to walk without being so wide!

Zhu Gong'anna led the fleet's actions. Someone at the dock soon reported to the cavalry who was rushing to the coming. According to the observation of the lookout, they quickly left the original direction and were rushing towards them.

"Do we need to install something? While there is still time!"

Juliana was still a little worried. She had been a crusade and knew that these Mamluks were definitely not easy to deal with. Moreover, when she was on the Island of Felecai, she was locked up in the island's tent by Shu Yuer most of the time. She really didn't know much about the Yulin Army of the Song Dynasty.

"Please don't worry about Miss Juliana, there are only more than 500 Mamluks. When they come, they first ask them to taste the taste of our crossbow bullets, and then the cavalry only needs to clean the battlefield!"

With trust in the flying swallow I-type crossbows installed on his ship, Matt was not worried about any cavalry. And even if they were so close, it would be useless if they couldn't get on the ship.

From another perspective, even if they send warships and type II to ride the wind and waves at a fast speed, they can easily send them to the bottom of the sea.

Soon, a team of Mamluk cavalry, who were several times more numerous from the Yulin soldiers of the Song Dynasty on the shore, slowly came in from both sides of the road beside the forest. Seeing their horses running, they probably were worried that the people here would escape. Half of the cavalry took a long way to block another intersection.

Mamluk was an elite cavalry. Although they ran a lot of detours, they came here and quickly arranged the formation amid the shouts of the officers.

Perhaps due to the wide field, they lined up a charge formation to confront the eighty cavalry of the Great Song Yulin Army. This place is no longer a dock, and it is relatively small and not suitable for cavalry charges.

Five hundred Mamluks lined up in a long queue. They rushed over, but they did not put down any giant crossbows or stone throwing machines. This made Juliana quietly relieved, but made Matt feel a little regretful.

"It's money to steal your head, but it's money to steal other equipment. Do these lazy guys don't bring those heavy weapons when fighting?"

This time Juliana glared at Matt and expressed her serious dissatisfaction to him.

"Hey, Matt, I really want to know where you are heading!"

Seeing Matt, who was calculating his purse, was very happy to see that he was still happy when he answered.

"Well, towards my own purse, dear lady, is this rich?"

Juliana had to look at her side for such an answer. The cavalry had already confronted them at about two hundred meters away, and she didn't know where Matt got the mood to make a joke.

Four III-type ships riding the wind and waves on the water have been lined up along the shore. The front and back anchors have been placed to ensure that the accuracy will not be affected by the movement of the ship when the fire is opened.

The Mamluk cavalry opposite waved their big iron spears and shouted loudly in Arabic to express their purpose.

"Go back to Huangsha City, go back to Huangsha City..."

From this point of view, Julianna can see that these soldiers were all Mamluk cavalry bought. Although they may also be very good at fighting, they will not be much different when dealing with Frank knights.

But she was not as sure as Matt. They were not opponents of the Song Dynasty Yulin Army.

Faced with an enemy that was several times more than himself, the cavalry of the Song Yulin Army under the ship remained unmoved. The entire team was still the only one who was blowing from the sea breeze and the red tassel on the helmet on the spear, which showed that they were an elite cavalry.

Listening to the provocative shouts, Matt became a little impatient. And he, who could understand Arabic, became more and more murderous.

"They told us to go back to Huangsha City. Would the people here turn against us? But I heard that many of our porcelain and silk come from here. If the trade routes here are broken... unless the island leader is willing to use our ship to *** them, we can be like pirates..."

Matt is not actually worried about future business. He is thinking about the privateer system that Zhao Fubo told Martin that there might be in the future. Or that he has the inheritance of his father Abu Bakker's pirate bloodline and has an extraordinary hobby for sea robbery.

"Well, Miss Juliana, the person I just got has already told me a lot of things. The cavalry in front of us are probably a small part of their total number. Their camp..."

According to the confession of the arrested civilians, the Pan family has a well-defended fortress on the island. It is not small in scale. It is said to the outside world that the Mamluk cavalry camp on the island is the main reason why Juliana moved the ship.

At this moment, the Mamluk cavalry on the opposite side misunderstood the calmness here, which was a cowardly expression, so their entire team planned to launch a charge.

It is both humiliating and can achieve the effect of intimidation. The subsequent reaction of the Song Dynasty Yulin Army made them understand that they were really wrong.

"Cavals prepare horse bows, naval guns and cavalry brigades behind enemy lines, prepare..."

With Juliana's order, the navy-specific "whistle" was used between the four sailors to convey information. This is a navy-specific whistle with extremely strong penetration. Its sharp sound can penetrate thick fog and wind and waves.

Although Martin also studied the means of light transmitting signals, lights that are not bright enough cannot play any role in the daytime.

"Sir, everything is ready!"

Matt followed Juliana and temporarily acted as her deputy.

The time when Juliana just issued the order was only a short time apart. Whether it was the main combat cavalry of the Great Song Yulin Army on the shore or the flying swallow i-type crossbows on the ship, they were all ready.

At this time, the commander of Mamluk opposite saw that his opponent had set his bow. In order to maintain enough pressure, he began to order one-third of his cavalry to prepare to charge.

"Boom..."

Although there were less than two hundred Mamluk cavalry, they still charged like a surging torrent. Nothing seemed to be able to stop them. The heavy sound of horse hooves of heavy armored cavalry would also scare any ordinary person facing them.

But they are not facing ordinary people, especially those who have been on the battlefield, and they will not be scared by the charges of these heavy cavalrymen.

"put!

With Juliana's order, the Feiyan I-type crossbow cannon began to shoot. In order to strengthen the psychological pressure on the enemy, Martin specially installed some whistles.

The crossbow bullets shot out towards the air made a sharp and harsh sound. The thick crossbow bullets filled with semi-solidified liquid loadings flew through the air like a group of returning geese.

At this time, Zhao Fubo and his party, who had arrived, stopped in the unobtrusive place by the forest. Amina pointed at Pu Jinshu with pride and said to him with a horse whip.
