This is the new weapon made by the Ordnance Laboratory since the end of the Battle of Fuzhou and after receiving relevant feedback from the front line.

Unlike those small feathered arrow-type weapons filled with gunpowder, it is a large weapon that is in principle the same as that of the Divine Fire Raven.

This large rocket uses an iron casing that is much stronger than a cardboard shell. Inside, it imitates the layout of torpedoes and missiles in later generations, and is divided into two compartments.

One of them is a propellant chamber, and the other is a warhead filled with explosives, black powder, incendiary charges, etc.

As the name suggests, the propulsion module is responsible for delivering the rocket to the target location, while the warhead relies on a timed fuse, and when the time is reached, it will explode, killing the enemy or causing damage to buildings.

The biggest difference between the new rockets of the Huaxia Army and the rockets such as the Shenhuo Flying Crow used by the Ming Army is that the Huaxia Army has a more advanced scientific research system and can make propellants with greater thrust.

Rockets are a systematic siege, and with the promotion of advanced propellants as a power source, the new rockets can be made larger, and at the same time have more redundancy.

As a result, the new rocket uses an alloy shell to make it stronger and can carry more propellant and explosives without crushing the shell and causing it to disintegrate in the air.

Based on calculations, the Ordnance Research Institute designed a series of multiple types of rockets, each of which was different in size, weight, and charge.

The new type of rocket that has just been put into use in the current Battle of Arthur is the lightest model, but its overall weight has also reached 30 kilograms, with a diameter of 0.1 meters, and a long tail rod, with a range of more than 2 kilometers.

And the warhead of the new rocket, as mentioned earlier, uses a variety of different warheads, there are high-explosive warheads, there are ordinary black powder warheads, there are incendiary warheads. This time, because it was the battalion of the Houjin Army that needed to be dealt with, it was mainly to damage enemy buildings and attack the enemy army, so the main use was incendiary warheads.

In the camp of the Houjin Army, the places where they were attacked were basically blazing with raging flames, and the larger ones were ignited by rockets that ignited buildings or materials.

The fire head is slightly smaller, and the bullet of the incendiary bomb burns the incendiary agent it carries.

Chen Xin looked at the firelight in the enemy camp in the distance, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he could fully imagine that there must be chaos in the current Houjin army camp.

The new type of large rocket, falling from the sky with a scream, will deal a great blow to the morale of the soldiers of the Houjin Army.

Seeing a cylinder more than a meter long falling from the sky with a scream, and he was powerless and unable to defend at all, this huge fear was not something ordinary people could overcome.

After waiting for a while, Chen Xin saw that orange-red fireworks had risen again on the positions between the enemy and us. This is the flame brought by another round of rockets rising into the sky.

Exactly like the last time, the trajectory of the rocket is very chaotic, and it is almost impossible to find two rockets with the same flight trajectory.

However, because the camp established by the Houjin army of nearly 200,000 troops is too large, even if the trajectory of these rockets is not traceable at all, it still ensures at least eighty percent of the hit rate.

After each rocket flew after the Jin army camp, it would cause a big fire, and even many soldiers of the Jin army were ignited by the incendiary agent mixed with natural rubber and other things produced by oil processing, and then wailed miserably in the camp.

Fu Yan and Chief of Staff Liu were also watching tonight's night attack from the top of the mountain, and the two of them looked at the spectacular scene in front of them, a little stunned.

Although the scene when the new rocket is launched is not as colorful as the rocket car that comes from the rocket launcher, the launch distance of the new rocket is also incomparable to the rocket car.

As high-ranking officers of the Huaxia Army, they knew very well that the range of the rocket vehicle was only more than 300 or 400 meters at most, but the smallest of the rocket systems developed by the Ordnance Research Institute in front of them had a range of 2 kilometers.

At such a distance, it is difficult to defend even in the daytime, not to mention the sneak attack in the night now, it is difficult for the enemy to defend against such a large range when facing such a long-range weapon.

This also means that when the Houjin army faces the new rocket, they can only choose to be beaten passively, even if they hide in the center of the camp, they will lose the sense of safety before.

In this way, it will naturally increase the psychological pressure of the soldiers of the Houjin Army, and a heavy stone will be pressed on their hearts, and they will not even rest well, how can they recover their physical strength.

If the physical recovery is not good, it will be fatal in battle, this is simply a vicious circle, as long as the Houjin army cannot get rid of the threat of new rockets, this is a dead knot that cannot be untied.

The first batch of rockets sent by the Ordnance Research Institute was only 500 pieces. Chen Xin had already dispatched 100 rockets during this night's night attack, and almost all of these rockets smashed into the Houjin army camp.

However, Chen Xin did not plan to use up all the rockets tonight, after all, the psychological offensive is long-term and cannot be achieved overnight.

Therefore, after two rounds of launches, there was no follow-up action on the front position, and according to the plan formulated by the Liaodong Dispatch Army Command, those rocket soldiers withdrew to the rear first after launching the new rockets they carried.

The 20 infantry detachments that were previously responsible for covering the mission will take advantage of the huge chaos brought by the new rockets to the Houjin army, continue to carry out the harassment plan, and suppress the morale and spirit of the Houjin army, from soldiers to officers.

The night raid of 20 infantry detachments continued until the second half of the night.

During this time, horns, suona, drums and whistles sounded constantly around the location of the Houjin army camp, and some soldiers were beating gongs and other things bought from local people.

The battalions of the Houjin army have always been holding the camp and not fighting, and after the several fires in their own camp have been successfully extinguished, the camp of the Houjin army has finally been a little quieter.

However, even at this time, the Houjin army still had no intention of going out of the camp to meet the battle. They only sent a small number of elites who could fight at night, and launched a sneak attack and plot with the Huaxia Army in the dark.
