At this moment, America.

At night, Captain George, a British man, led a team of men to the path they found behind Position 3.

Ambush quietly.

In order not to alert the enemy, Captain George conducted an investigation on the Indians who had found no trace that day.

Their residence was discovered, but it was deserted.

Captain George pondered for a while, and only after he was sure that all the Indians had left, he gave the order to ambush all the way into position three.

Waiting for Captain Green's frontal attack.

The front of positions three and two.

About three hundred meters away from Position No. 3, Captain Green had already dug a trench countless meters in front and waited until the sky turned white.

There was a burst of gunfire!

Breaking the silent night, the last British war against France began before winter came.

The Longyan artillery bombardment range is very far, and the accuracy can be guaranteed within three hundred meters.

In half an hour, the five Longyan artillery fired a total of thirty shells.

They all bombarded the front line of Formation No. 3 accurately.

Under the dim sky, the fire ignited in the No. 3 position, the thick smoke that covered the sky, and the flying rocks all showed one thing. The effect of this shelling was very significant.

He did not see the French cavalry emerging from the dust and fog.

Captain Green smiled coldly, thinking that these thirty artillery pieces had caused great damage to France.

But this pride did not last long on Captain Green's face.

Soon he heard the sound of French horses' hooves rolling in through the dust and fog.

Captain Green had already anticipated the French attack. He had already dug trenches on the ground to ambush the French.

The French cavalry was menacing and moved rapidly under artillery fire. Artillery fire could pose a certain threat, but it was difficult to threaten the cavalry in open areas.

It just so happens that this is an open area.

But Captain Green did not give up using the advantage of artillery to suppress the French cavalry.

He must attract the attention of these French people and gain space for Captain George, who is preparing for a sneak attack.

Just when the French cavalry was about to reach the British trenches, the French cavalry suddenly turned and retreated.

Captain Green was stunned and didn't understand what these French cavalry were going to do.

But these Frenchmen must not be allowed to retreat. The battle at position three has just begun.

The return of these cavalrymen will cause great trouble to Captain George.

Now Captain Green had no time to think too much: "Put on a spear."

"Advance the front!"

These=French cavalry must not be allowed to go back, but advancing the front means abandoning the places on which their defense relies.

The first British soldiers put on their spears and advanced to the front.

When the French cavalry saw this scene, their faces were very funny. In their view, the British people's move was simply seeking death.

The French cavalry charged again.

The first team of British soldiers held spears and shields, holding a shield in their left hand and a gun in their right hand. They squatted on the ground, with huge shields protecting their bodies.

The spears in his right hand were raised.

Defend against French cavalry charges.

"Cover your eyes!"

The French cavalry immediately covered the horses' eyes with black cloth to prevent the horses from becoming frightened after seeing the British spears.

The French cavalry also charged with spears, but the spears in their hands were nearly two meters long.

A bit longer than the spears of the British infantry.

The war horses are approaching!

Captain Green shouted loudly: "Stab!"

The shield soldier heard the order and stabbed out with a spear in his right hand.

The French war horse cavalry fearlessly collided with the hard shield, making a dull sound!

boom!

Under the crazy charge of the French cavalry, the defense line of the British shield soldiers was quickly torn apart.

But the French cavalry also paid a price, and some horses were fatally injured in the collision.

The attack angle of the British Shield Formation is very tricky. Although the shield soldiers cannot see it, their attacks can hit the belly of the war horse very accurately.

However, not all British soldiers can attack.

Even if it can hit the lower abdomen of the French war horse, it will still bear a strong impact.

Under the heavy damage and hooves of the war horses, these soldiers equipped with thick shields are likely to be killed in one blow.

In the first confrontation, Britain was at a disadvantage, but they also contained the cavalry.

The French cavalry also did not attack forward because of the trenches.

But at this time.

There was a loud bang.

A cannon from Dragon Flame exploded suddenly, and Captain Green was startled from behind.

He just saw a cannonball fired from France's position from a distance of three hundred meters.

And then the cannonball landed on the Dragon Flame Cannon accurately.

At that time, the Dragon Flame Cannon was filling cannonballs.

With just one shot from France, Long Yan's artillery blasted into the sky together with the bomb.

The violent explosion shattered the dragon fire cannon, and one of the shrapnel that burst out grazed Captain Green's cheek.

Captain Green touched the wet and hot blood that overflowed from his face, and suddenly looked up at French Position No. 3.

"They are already equipped with dragon flame cannons!"

Captain Green suddenly remembered that the two Dragon Flame Cannons intercepted by France were supposed to belong to them. His face was gloomy and terrifying, and he ordered: "Aim at the location where the bombardment was just now and knock out their Dragon Flame Cannons!"

"yes!"

The artilleryman immediately turned around to adjust the distance and fired a cannonball.

It fell accurately into the position where the French position launched the artillery attack just now.

There was a bang and dust flew all over the sky.

The place had been destroyed. Captain Green sneered. He covered his bleeding cheek with one hand and used a telescope to see the ruins with the other hand. The wounds on his face didn't seem to hurt so much anymore. He secretly Said: What Britain gets, you French people can't even imagine.

But suddenly, Captain Green's pupils shrank suddenly and he exclaimed: "How is this possible!"

"Run!"

Before he finished speaking, Captain Green ran away, and the gunner had not yet reacted.

There was a sudden explosion.

This Dragon Flame Cannon also became fragmented.

Captain Greene fell down at the moment of the explosion and survived, and no shrapnel hit him.

But the artilleryman was in pieces, and no complete bones could be found.

Captain Green's blood-stained face was filled with horror, and he kept muttering: "This is impossible... this is impossible!"

"There is absolutely no way the artillery can move that fast. It must be another Dragon Flame Cannon captured by the French!"

Captain Green raised his hand blankly and looked at the French position. The position where the opponent had just opened fire was not far from the position where they were blown up.

When he looked through the telescope and saw the same Frenchman as before, the two men were moving quickly with dragon flame cannons, and the wounds on their faces hurt slightly.

An invisible force seemed to be holding his heart.
