Black Corporation: Joseon - Chapter 935

Episode 935: The Imperial March 2 – Assault return, running on the ground. (23) The Swiss and

Florentine armies were also

in confusion .

“Why are the tow trucks here?”

Many of the tow trucks that had been pulling

the cannons from Florence through Milan to Pavia were brought to the front line.

“Why on earth?”

“Now that I think about it… those are the carts?”

“Why are there guys here who aren’t worth their weight?”

The Swiss and Florentine soldiers, who were looking at the tow trucks that were suddenly rushing in and emitting smoke and steam, twisted their heads even more.

There were two main types of tow trucks they had seen so far.

There were two types: one that had nothing on it other than a luggage compartment that contained firewood such as coal or firewood, and one that had an additional large luggage compartment that could easily accommodate at least 2,300 people.

Every time they moved, the imperial army moved various supplies on a tow truck with a large luggage compartment.

“But is there something strange?”

The Florentine and Swiss troops, looking at the tow trucks, began to feel something strange.

In the cargo area of the tow truck in question, large iron pillars were erected along the center line, and thick steel bars were connected between the pillars.

And on the sides of the luggage compartment, large iron plates connected by hinges were fixed.

And because there were already large steel structures in place inside the luggage compartment, only a small amount of supplies could be loaded.

The same was true for cannons. Other smaller tow trucks and

war horses were also pulling large-diameter cannons, but these big guys were only pulling the smallest cannons.

Because of this, the Florentine and Swiss soldiers laughed at him, calling him ‘a guy not worth his weight.’

“Why are you dragging around guys who aren’t even worth their weight?”

Of course, there were some who had doubts. It was because it didn’t seem to be of any use to them. This was because the extremely large man was dragging the smallest cannon, and whenever the march stopped for a day, soldiers and craftsmen rushed to maintain it.

The most unusual thing was the soldiers. The soldiers operating the tow trucks and the soldiers marching along the perimeter were all wearing black uniforms, unlike other Imperial soldiers.

The weapons these soldiers carried were also unique. One-third of the soldiers were carrying light armored vehicles and one-third were carrying long guns. The problem was the last third.

He was holding a gun as small as the toy wooden guns that the boys in Florence played with.

All the tow trucks that seemed like a ‘waste of the Imperial Army’s money’ were all flocking to the front line.

“But why are they all standing upside down?”

That wasn’t the only thing the Florentine and Swiss troops couldn’t understand.

As they looked while moving, the tow truck’s control room was clearly in the front, followed by the engine room and the ‘useless’ luggage compartment was at the end.

But the tow trucks standing in front of me were just the opposite.

The luggage compartment was at the front, followed by the engine room and finally the control room.

The strange thing continued. At the front and back of the tow truck

was

a steel structure similar to the bow, or rather, a curved steel structure similar to the front of the sled blade of a snow sled .

The roof was created by connecting the iron plates hanging next to the luggage compartment and the iron bar hanging in the center of the luggage compartment.

Among those who were examining the sled blade, some with good eyesight immediately noticed their eyes shining.

“uh? this? “It looks like the ones in that luggage compartment?”

“Hmm… what is it?”

While everyone was shaking their heads in unanswered questions, imperial army officers wearing unique black uniforms held whistles in their mouths.

Beep!

“Take off the wrapping!”

Following the officers’ orders, soldiers wearing the same black uniforms clung to the tow truck. As the wrapping covering the front part of the tow truck’s luggage compartment was removed, the eyes of the Florentine and Swiss soldiers nearby grew wide.

A short, thick gun barrel protruded from the front of the tow truck’s luggage compartment. Other tanks had gun muzzles sticking out along the front and left and right sides of the cargo compartment.

Beep!

“embarkation!”

“embarkation!”

After another loud whistle, the officers shouted, ‘On board!’ Soldiers in black uniforms, repeating the officers’ orders, climbed the stairs protruding from the left and right sides of the cockpit and entered the luggage compartment.

Pow! Beep!

With a loud whistle sound, the tow trucks carrying the soldiers began to move.

The tow trucks moved in a line, watching the signals sent by soldiers holding large signal flags waving them.

The area where the tow trucks were heading was bare ground located in the middle of the trench line.

“I was wondering why they didn’t dig a trench there…”

“Was it the route of advance for those tow trucks?”

The Florentine and Swiss troops finally learned everything as they saw the tow trucks carrying soldiers in steel luggage compartments and the passage created by cutting through the trench lines.

– Break through the trench line by loading soldiers into a tow truck surrounded by iron plates!

“Are they newly born knights for a new era?”

As the monks rose into the sky, the eyes of the French generals and soldiers were all focused on the monks in the sky.

At that moment, the sound of a whistle sounded loudly from the Imperial Army’s trenches, and the gaze of the generals and soldiers came down from heaven to the ground.

The soldiers and generals who saw the smoke columns of the tow trucks moving around felt something ominous.

“I don’t know what the hell is going on. “That’s why I feel anxious.”

“I agree.”

“How about we start bombarding first?”

“It’s a promise made on the honor of a knight…”

“Promises are meant to be broken…”

Pugh~.

While the French generals were discussing the first attack, gunfire rang out from the rear of the Imperial Allied Forces in the distance.

“Just one shot? From that far away….”

Kwaang!

The French generals, who had already realized the meaning of the first shot fired during the previous artillery battle, shouted in horror. But before he could finish his words, a large pillar of earth rose up from the French trench line.

Pop pop pop~.

Then, as about three more shots were fired, the French army’s junior officers positioned along the trench line shouted at the soldiers.

“It’s going to rain soon! Everyone, come to your senses!”

Not long after the officers finished speaking, the ‘serious bombardment’ of the imperial artillery began.

bang! Quagwang! bang! Quack!

The sincere bombardment of the imperial artillery was not the ‘shower’ described by the poetically sensitive French soldiers.

It was a torrential downpour, or a murderous downpour that came with a typhoon.

The Imperial Army’s artillery, already worn out through the many wars and battles it had experienced over the past time, demonstrated its skills to the fullest this time.

Confirming the observation results sent from Bhikkhu, the imperial artillery gradually collapsed the walls on the left and right of the city gate of Pavia and the trench lines protecting the front gate.

“Why are you leaving the gate alone?”

The imperial commander indifferently answered the question of a Florentine officer who was watching the bombardment from the side.

“Because it is easier to open the castle gate and enter than to climb over the collapsed castle wall.”

“But there must be a lot of enemies waiting right behind the gate, right?”

“That crazy stormtrooper will like it better. No need to go far. “You damn bastards, ‘board at least 3 paces’ do you think they’re in the navy?”

“huh?”

While the Florentine military officer was questioning the incomprehensible words, a subordinate officer reported.

“Message from the bhikkhu! Let’s go sailors!”

“okay? “Then, from now on, we will only tighten the walls!”

“yep!”

While subordinate officers and artillerymen were diligently adjusting the azimuth of the guns at the command of the commander, the Florentine military officer was still tormented by an unanswered question.

“embarkation? Navy? Boat guy? No matter how you look at it, the Imperial Navy isn’t here?”

As the Florentine military officer was struggling to answer his question, an interpreter stepped in and gave him the answer.

“I say that because the structure resembles a ship with structures attached front and back to pass through the trench. And if you ride that, you will definitely get motion sickness.”

“Carsickness?”

“Wow! “Yuck!”

“Is that bastard, who has been assigned to the assault force for a long time, still sitting there feeling motion sick?”

As some of the soldiers sitting on the simple chairs attached to the boarding compartment got motion sick, other soldiers around them grumbled.

“Eup~ body constitution… wow! How can it be that the constitution doesn’t accept it… Wow! How do I do this?”

Even soldiers suffering from motion sickness had something to say.

The assault car that carried them was something that built a wall between the comfort of the ride.

The county was well aware of this problem and used coil-type springs and plate-type springs as much as possible. However, after doing this, a problem arose where maintenance requirements became too large.

There is still nothing we can do because technology still has its limitations.

In the end, Hyang was disappointed and had to reduce the number and use of springs, resulting in the worst riding experience for the soldiers.

“Are there any soldiers to support this? “Should we be forced to deploy it?…”

Army commanders who had ridden the prototype were worried, but surprisingly,

quite a few soldiers supported it.

“It’s better than walking barefoot while bullets rain down on you, right?”

“And you don’t have to run!”

Even in the midst of this, they were soldiers who found positive aspects.

* * *

“Ugh….”

“Ugh!”

“help me! “Someone!”

The French trenches and walls, which had been hit hard by the artillery fire of the imperial army ‘with all their heart and soul’, were devastated.

Soldiers groaning and screaming from injuries sustained as shell fragments and trenches collapsed were flooding in from all directions. After a while, as the imperial army’s artillery fire began to slow down, the executives and soldiers who came to their senses raised their voices and settled the situation.

“stretcher! “Bring the stretcher!”

“Move the wounded!”

“Get the guy buried over there!”

“There is no time!”

Officers and soldiers desperately prepared for the next step by removing dead or injured soldiers as quickly as possible.

“Check the condition of the freight cars and cannons!”

“There is only one reason why the bombardment has slowed down! “They are coming!”

The soldiers, who came to their senses after hearing the shouts of officers and soldiers, soon checked the condition of the freight cars and cannons.

“There are not enough people on the freight car!”

“you! you! you! “Go and help!”

“The artillery position is also short on personnel!”

“Talk to the back!”

French officers guarding the trench line continued to make choices to achieve the best outcome.

In the case of freight cars, regular soldiers could also assist, but cannons were not possible.

“Anyway, in close combat, freight cars are better than cannons! “Secure as many freight cars as possible!”

“ancient!”

“It’s a monster! It’s a monster! “Monsters are coming!”

The French officers, who were struggling to maintain their best strength to defend the trench,

looked up when they heard scream-like cries coming from around them.

“what? Hehe!”

“omg!”

The French military officers looking ahead were frightened.

Monsters were running, emitting plumes of black smoke.

No, Lee Seong insisted that he was not a monster. However, on the large iron plate covering the front, there was a picture of an ugly monster baring its teeth.
