Total War: I'm building up an army to rebel against the Qing Dynasty in a heavily modified vers

"The Smiling Immortal possesses boundless magical powers!"

When the bandits saw the magic that made heads fly out of thin air, they were instantly dumbfounded and cheered loudly at the smiling megaphone.

Even Liu Heilong's eyes showed a hint of shock.

Even though he had seen such magic more than once, he had to admit that he was always shocked every time he saw this bizarre sorcery.

One by one, human heads flapped their wings and flew towards the fleeing militiamen in the distance. Hearing the strange noises behind them, some militiamen turned around and were so shocked that they cried out "Oh my god!"

"Good heavens, what the hell is this thing?"

"Oh my god, a monster! A monster!"

There's no time to think about all that, the most important thing is to fire the gun!

The first group of militiamen, who had just run back to the Liu family compound and quickly climbed the wall, hurriedly and frantically loaded their rifles, trembling as they put gunpowder and bullets into them in order.

Because on Rock's side, the system provides fixed-load bullets for the flintlock muskets, so the militiamen don't need to worry about how much gunpowder to put in or the order in which they put it in.

All they had to do was take out the bullet wrapped in paper, bite open the gunpowder end, pour the gunpowder inside, and then pour in the lead bullet from the other end.

That's why they were able to complete the loading process methodically even under such pressure, without making any ridiculous mistakes.

Compared to the villagers, the guerrillas were slightly faster, although they were not much faster at reloading bullets.

Just as they finished loading their bullets, they saw a bunch of heads with bombs hanging from their braids flying towards them, about to crash into the yard.

Without a second thought, they opened fire on the heads flying everywhere in the sky.

Bang bang bang!

With a gunshot, smoke instantly billowed out, and a head that was diving down was hit, the skull shattering instantly.

After the head was smashed, the pair of wings extending from the back of the head stopped flapping, and the bomb hanging on the braid fell to the ground together, then exploded with a bang.

No one knows what principle this bomb works on, what kind of formula it contains, or what causes it to explode with a huge blast when it hits the ground and breaks, even igniting a large area of ​​flames.

Despite successfully taking down one of them, the guerrillas felt no relief, because more flying head worms were rushing towards them!

In the blink of an eye, these evil monsters swooped into the courtyard.

"Go to hell, you bastard!"

One of the guerrillas shouted and grabbed the rifle he had just fired, swinging it around like a baseball bat.

With a loud bang, a flying head Gu that was rushing towards him was hit and sent flying.

The severed head, along with the bomb hanging from the braid, slammed into the thick courtyard wall, followed by a deafening explosion.

The massive explosion failed to breach the courtyard wall, but it ignited the surrounding area. The flying head Gu was also struck by the flames from the explosion, writhing in agony as its body burned, but it died instantly.

Seeing this, the other militiamen and guerrillas followed suit, quickly turning their guns upside down and using them as sticks.

Although these militiamen had never learned how to fight with rifle butts before, they still knew how to simply swing their rifle butts to knock things away in this situation.

Some militiamen successfully knocked away the flying skulls that pounced on them, but others failed and were bitten directly by the flying skulls.

I have no idea how this thing grew all those rotten teeth. Even the term "canine teeth" doesn't do it justice, but they are exceptionally sharp.

With one bite, the villager's shoulder was pierced through on the spot, and blood kept seeping out.

"Ah—! Help me! Help me!"

The villager struggled desperately, shaking off the biting flying head Gu on his shoulder, but he couldn't break free no matter what he did.

Just as he was struggling, the braid of the flying head Gu suddenly broke off, and the bomb hanging on the braid flew out and landed on another teammate next to him.

boom!

A loud explosion rang out, and another unfortunate militiaman next to him was instantly blown to the ground by the bomb, and then his whole body burst into flames.

The militiaman wasn't killed by the first wave of explosions; he was still struggling desperately on the ground. But the more he struggled, the more the flames spread, and in no time, he was burned to a crisp.

Besides this place, there were other flying head Gu flying towards the village, and then smashing the bombs they carried into the village.

In an instant, several houses in Zhangjiatun were engulfed in flames.

"Hahaha, Lama, your sorcery is really effective!"

Liu Heilong looked excitedly at the village that was constantly under attack, and couldn't help but burst into laughter at the occasional flames and explosions.

But at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards the lama.

This guy is clearly very skilled, but he rarely takes the initiative to fight. Most of the time, he chooses to hide in his mountain stronghold, eating but not doing anything, which makes him slightly dissatisfied.

If this guy could participate in every major battle between Black Dragon Mountain and other places, instead of acting solely on his whim and with various conditions, then Black Dragon Mountain might have already defeated the bandits of Second Dragon Mountain.

Of course, although he couldn't help but complain in his heart, he wouldn't show it on the surface.

Because he knew that people were doing him a favor by serving a truly capable and extraordinary person like a lama. If he really angered the lama, the lama could turn around and serve someone else, and then come back to deal with him!

But at that moment, the smiling lama seemed to suddenly realize that something was wrong.

He turned his head to look in one direction, then quickly shook the bell in his hand, summoning back all the flying head Gu and living corpses that were moving forward.

"Lama, what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly stop fighting?"

Liu Heilong frowned as he looked at the lama, but the man suddenly pointed to the side of them.

"Mr. Liu, the lama has spotted quite a few people approaching from the side!"

"There's a cavalry force of over a hundred men over there; they don't look like they're up to any good!"

Holy crap, a cavalry force of over a hundred men? Where did this powerful clan come from?

Liu Heilong's expression also turned serious. He knew that a force that could field a hundred or more horsemen at once was definitely not a small force. Even their Black Dragon Mountain could only field a horsemen of less than 50 people!

He quickly looked into the distance, and after a short while, he spotted the cavalry that had just crossed a slope and were rapidly approaching.

"These guys are the so-called Luo Family Army?"

Liu Heilong thought for a moment, recalling a name he had heard while inquiring about information, and a trace of fear inexplicably appeared in his eyes.

At first, he didn't take the Luo family army seriously, thinking it was just a wealthy man or powerful figure surnamed Luo who had raised an army for himself and then came to challenge their order.

But when he saw that all the cavalrymen were riding tall horses and wearing neat and bright Western-style uniforms, he immediately realized that these guys were not to be trifled with!

If things go wrong, the men I brought might not be able to defeat them!

"Lama, why don't we talk to them? It's better to resolve conflicts than to create them..."

Liu Heilong looked at the lama beside him and was about to speak when he noticed that the man had already shaken the copper bell, sending the flying head Gu flying into the distance.

The smiling lama completely ignored him. Both the imposing manner of the charging cavalry and the unsettling energy he vaguely sensed made him clearly realize:

Those guys came specifically for them, and they had no intention of backing down!

At a time like this, thinking about negotiations or the idea that it's better to resolve conflicts than to perpetuate them is completely unreliable. It's better to subdue the other side first.

The Smiling Lama was very confident in his creations, but just as he was thinking this, he suddenly realized that the unsettling energy was gathering at an alarming speed above his head.

"What...what is this?"

The smiling lama looked up and saw a large amount of purple energy gradually forming a purple sun above his head. He suddenly realized that he had underestimated the guy opposite him.

What the hell! Where did this ruthless character come from to be able to unleash such terrifying magic?

On the other side, Rock led his newly recruited cavalry, a total of more than 100 cavalrymen, to rush over. However, when he arrived, he found that the situation here seemed to be worse than he had imagined.

When he saw the heads flying in the air in the distance, regrouping into the bandit ranks, and the villages further away burning and billowing black smoke, he realized he had underestimated these bandits.

"Holy crap, what is that? A bomb drone? This is outrageous for the late Qing Dynasty!"

Rock couldn't help but complain. Although he knew there were many absurd things in the world, those heads flying around and with bombs hanging below them still surprised him greatly.

Honestly, if this thing didn't look like some kind of bizarre flesh-and-blood technology instead of a real drone, Rock might have thought he had traveled back to the 21st century!

If you didn't know better, you'd think that guy on the other side came from the Donbas battlefield!

Seeing a large group of bandits gathering in the distance, Rock did not hesitate at all and immediately used Krezer's Purple Evil Sun.

Regardless of the consequences, he decided to unleash the death spell first. He wanted to see if these bandits, who seemed to have some special skills, could withstand his warhammer spell.
