Chapter 34: The Spread of Poison Gas

"Damn it!" the old monkey cursed.

But he soon discovered that the poisonous gas did not climb up the water tower.

Instead, it hovered more than two meters below, moving with the wind.

The old monkey felt cold. Three or four kilometers behind him was the Volga River.

After crossing the Volga River, there is the rear of the Ming army, artillery, logistics troops, and resting troops.

Thirty kilometers away, there are airports, command posts, logistics supply bases, and airship landing sites.

God knows whether these damn poisonous gases will blow along with the wind.

The shelling at my feet finally stopped, perhaps because the poisonous gas was too strong. Even if I was wearing a pig-mouth gas mask, I couldn't achieve complete protection.

The flares were still being fired, but not a single coalition soldier could be seen.

On the other hand, in the sky, the thundering roar of the airship engine could be faintly heard.

"Damn it!" the old monkey cursed again.

Although half of his men are not on the battlefield, only God knows what will happen in the bunker several meters underground.

But, by this time, all the brothers should be finished.

"Commander!

Reports came from the front that the coalition forces used a large number of poison gas bombs.

The poisonous gas is being blown by the wind and spreading towards our position."

Stewie rushed into the combat command room in a rage.

Li Xiao stood up, his eyebrows twisted into a knot.

It was because poison gas was so vicious that the Ming Dynasty and all European countries signed the Paris Agreement in Paris.

It was stipulated that in future wars, both sides would not be allowed to use poison gas bombs.

At that time, Napoleon was the main initiator.

Unexpectedly, he was the first one to break the agreement today.

"The wind is moving very fast, and the poisonous gas has already spread through the train station and is almost to the Volga River."

The combat staff officer received the call and reported while holding the phone in one hand.

"Fire incendiary bombs and ignite the reeds on both sides of the Volga River. Everyone, give up your equipment, give up everything, and retreat...!"

Although Li Xiao felt hatred in his heart, he also knew that it was useless no matter how much he hated.

The poisonous gas will not drift over because you hate it.

The Volga River is a large river in Europe, and the reeds on both sides of the river are very dense. In many areas, the reeds are several kilometers or even ten kilometers thick.

It is winter now, and the reeds are withered and yellow and have no moisture. They are the fuel that can easily be ignited!

The Ming Dynasty fired rows of incendiary bombs, and igniting the reeds would block the poisonous gas to a certain extent.

It is hoped that this can buy valuable evacuation time for the soldiers resting in the rear.

Fortunately, at Li Xiao's insistence, the field hospital was set up next to the airship landing site 35 kilometers away from the rear.

Otherwise, with so many wounded people, it would be impossible to evacuate them in a short while.

Even if we evacuate, where to evacuate is still a big problem.

The wounded man had wounds on his body and was exposed to the wilderness for a long time. He would definitely not survive the night.

The tragic scene on the edge of the Hun River appeared before Li Xiao's eyes!

We must not allow this kind of tragic scene to appear in our own army.

"Quick! Don't bring anything with you, just wear cotton-padded clothes and evacuate." Li Xiao roared. The combat staff trembled with fright and quickly called to convey Li Xiao's order.

"Commander, since they have violated the Paris Agreement, then we don't have to be polite!" Shi Dewei said to Li Xiao with a gloomy face.

"But we don't have many gas bombs in our hands. Moreover, the way our gas bombs are stored is different from theirs.

Our poison gas bombs are all canned and have a large dose!

Taking into account the issue of release safety, airships are mostly deployed instead of cannons.

This is both safe and can quickly form aerosols, reaching lethal concentrations.

With the current dose of poisonous gas we have, it is simply impossible to create a lethal concentration in such a large area."

Li Xiao felt a little resentful that he was too merciful and soft-hearted.

"Commander, we have the final say on matters in the sky.

You can order the Stuka to take off immediately and kill all the French airships in the sky.

Then, order our airship to throw it on the heads of the coalition forces in the sky...

In this way, at least it can delay the coalition's attack."

"This is a way, but the problem is... we don't have such a large number of poison gas bombs."

It’s hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. Now that we are transferring water from the Ming Dynasty here, it is obvious that the water from far away cannot quench the thirst of nearby people.

"We don't have it, but Kutuzov has it in his hands." Shi Dewei looked at Li Xiao with evil eyes.

This was the first time that Li Xiao saw such a look in his eyes.

"Kutuzov, how many can he have in his hand?" Li Xiao was not surprised that Kutuzov had poisonous gas bombs in his hand.

An army with poor combat effectiveness usually likes to play dirty tricks. Now that the Russian army has reached this point, it naturally has to use its brains.

"Eighty tons!" Stewie raised his hand and stretched out his thumb and index finger.

"Eighty tons?" Li Xiao suspected that he heard wrongly.

Kutuzov actually hid eighty tons of poison gas bombs. Where did this... come from?

"Kutuzov was afraid that he would not be able to hold the front, so he asked me for a batch of gas bombs.

I thought it would be no good to us if the Russians couldn't hold the line of defense, and besides, the things would get moldy if stored in the warehouse.

And the Russians were willing to exchange a copper mine, so I agreed.

These gas bombs are now stored in a Russian military warehouse eighty kilometers away from us!

I just sent it to you half a month ago."

Li Xiao glanced at Shi Dewei, God knows what else is going on here.

But Li Xiao doesn't care, the poisonous atmosphere is the most important thing now.

"The Stuka immediately took off and shot down all the airships over Tsaritsyn.

Immediately organize our airship and fly to the warehouse where the Russian army stores poison gas.

Since you are unkind, Napoleon, don't blame me for being unjust." Li Xiao was very ashamed of Napoleon's behavior.

Today, let’s play a game of treating others in their own way.

The bell at the frontline airport rang suddenly, and the sleeping pilot woke up from his sleep.

The door was kicked open by the belted captain: "Get up, everyone, get up, urgent mission."

The boys got dressed as quickly as possible and when they ran to the door, the truck was already waiting at the door.

The captain was constantly in the cab, urging the boys to get on the bus.

The boys got into the car, and the captain urged the driver to drive.

Then, the driver is urged to keep accelerating.

The driver's foot almost stepped into the fuel tank!

A group of twelve Stukas roared into the sky, and began to look for the coalition airship according to the airspace assigned in advance.

The old monkey was on the water tower and saw a large ball of flame suddenly rising in the sky.

That was when the airbag of the airship exploded and caught fire. The burning pod exploded directly in the air, and the wreckage fell everywhere with thick smoke.

The airships in the sky were blown up one after another, and the old monkey jumped up and down with joy!

After finally killing these damn guys, the airship must be filled with bombs, otherwise such an explosion would not have happened in the air.

This is to take advantage of the opportunity when Ming Dynasty is trapped by poison gas and run to the rear to bomb.

I asked you to be sneaky, and now you have been beaten down.

Looking at the falling flames, the old monkey felt relieved.

The flames can only temporarily block the poisonous gas. The rising hot air blows the poisonous gas higher into the sky, making it easier to be blown away by the wind.

However, the concentration released by the coalition forces was too high.

After blocking it for more than two hours, the reeds burned out. Although the steam was still steaming, it could no longer stop the poisonous gas from being blown forward by the wind.

The pervasive poisonous gas quickly swallowed up the artillery positions, and then various warehouses and military supplies stacked in the open air.

After traveling for more than ten kilometers, the concentration of poisonous gas had become very thin.

The sky gradually gets brighter, and a green wall can be seen moving slowly on the east bank of the Volga River.

Along the way this green wall swallowed up everything in its path!

The rising sun casts a strange golden light on this green wall.

In the Tsaritsyn room where the poisonous gas slowly dissipated, coalition soldiers began to enter the city.

No wonder the poisonous gas is released at night, because it is very dark at night and the color of the poisonous gas is difficult to detect.
