Chapter 280

The Ming army did not attack London, nor did they land anywhere in England.

This actually made the English people tremble!

The British Isles are island countries, surrounded by coastlines. If you want to defend, all the people in the UK will become soldiers, and it is impossible to defend such a long coastline.

Although most of the British upper echelons knew that Britain had no chance of winning the war and the war must end immediately.

But no one dares to say it!

No one wants to be the sinner who persuades the British to surrender. As long as someone dares to say this, they will immediately be flooded with saliva.

His home will be turned into rubble by the mob, and its members will be hanged from trees.

Therefore, although some people know the most correct way to do it, no one dares to say it.

While the British were trembling, the Ming fleet sailed north along the coast of England.

After London, Nottingham was bombarded again.

Nottingham was badly bombed, even the port and piers were devastated. Throughout the city, slightly taller buildings were damaged by shells.

The most frustrating thing is that some buildings did not fall down even after being bombed by artillery shells.

It looks good from the outside, but when you look at the side, there is a huge hole. The stairs and interior buildings inside were also blown to pieces.

It is better to blow up these buildings because there is no way to determine whether these buildings can still be inhabited.

The Ming fleet went all the way north, and York and Edinburgh were successively bombarded.

York, in particular, was bombed even more badly than Nottingham. In the tragic city of York, half of the houses were destroyed.

The most unlucky thing was the train station, which was blown up by artillery shells, causing the rails to twist and the sleepers to fly into the sky.

London newspapers were filled with nationalist voices, calling on all men in England to take up arms to defend their country and territorial integrity.

Shouting for the complete destruction of the Ming Empire in this world.

Others say that the Ming Empire only dared to show off its power at sea, and was nothing once it landed on land.

The strong army of the British Empire could crush any attack from the Ming Empire.

Some newspapers even published a letter from Her Majesty the Queen to all her subjects, calling on her subjects to fight to the end against the evil Ming people.

Most British people don't know that Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth has arrived in England's North American territory by ship.

That place is now called Canada.

What the British still don't know is that the elite of the British Army are currently in the trenches of Gibraltar, being wantonly destroyed by Ming heavy artillery fire.

The third 970mm mortar was also set up, which was a nightmare for the British.

The attack lasted four days, and almost all the British artillery was destroyed.

Some were blown up by Ming army aircraft, and some were destroyed by Ming army artillery fire. Some were even more ridiculous, because the ammunition was not up to standard and the chambers were blown up.

After four days of fierce fighting, the number of British artillery available was less than 5% of what it was before the war.

Moreover, these surviving artillery pieces are all small-caliber mortars. There are no large-caliber artillery pieces like the Ming Dynasty!

Even these mortars have to look at the sky from time to time.

As soon as Ming army planes arrive, they must immediately hide in the bunker.

If you retreat a little slower, you will be spotted by falcon-like fighter-bombers in the sky. Then...

Then there will be no more, a 500 kilogram bomb will fall from the sky. The mortar and the person will fly into the sky. When it falls, only the twisted barrel can be seen, but not the person flying into the sky.

Those people all turned into many parts, and a cloth like rain spread over a large area.

John Douglas, commander of the Gibraltar garrison, had telegraphed to London several times that he would have to surrender if there were no more reinforcements.

The answer you get is always..., stand your ground, the British Empire is behind you.

John.\nDouglas tore up the telegram angrily and gnashed his teeth in anger. Those idiots in London had no idea what the soldiers on the front line were going through.

The Ming army's large-caliber artillery dared to push directly to the front three kilometers of the position.

Yesterday, we even advanced to two kilometers.

The shorter distance greatly increases the accuracy of the artillery. At the same time, the reaction speed of the artillery also greatly increases.

Even as soon as the opponent's mortar shells came out of the barrel, they were locked by the Ming Dynasty's 120mm howitzer.

After a volley of artillery fire, the mortar will be engulfed in gunpowder smoke in an instant.

The British soldiers in the trenches didn't even have a chance to shoot.

Because in front of the Ming Dynasty artillery, there are rows of Ming tanks. Although the number of these tanks is not large, they are quite useful as mobile bunkers.

What's even more deadly is that the tank also has a fucking cannon on it.

Moreover, this cannon is aimed directly, and its lethality within one thousand meters is astonishing.

The British infantry was guarding the trenches and the bunkers, no matter where they were. Even the shooters holding special sniper rifles were not facing the Ming Dynasty infantry.

But a thick gun barrel!

Right? Doesn’t exist!

Ming Dynasty is just using cannons to fight snipers. It doesn't matter how awesome you are with one shot, it will disappear from the world.

They are all 120mm artillery pieces, and behind these artillery pieces are 155mm artillery pieces.

The power of this kind of artillery is even more amazing. The half-meter-thick reinforced concrete bunker will collapse with one shot. It is like using a can opener to open a can!

The British felt that this was not a battle, but a massacre.

The soldiers had no chance to shoot. Ming Dynasty just wanted to use cannonballs to kill all the British soldiers one after another.

Killing all the British soldiers would only cost one hundred thousand artillery shells.

All the arsenals of the Ming Dynasty were operating at full capacity to produce artillery shells. The problem now is not that there are not enough artillery shells, but that the war is about to end and there are too many artillery shells to be fired.

"Commander, if we fight for two more days, we will be able to capture the British core position. That big thing is no longer needed!" The chief of staff looked at the three huge mortars in the distance with regret!

After those two-meter-thick reinforced concrete fortresses turned into huge potholes, Gibraltar had no targets worth bombarding with 970mm artillery!

"No more, then retreat back and make way for the troops behind you!

The troops below are told to pay attention to casualties.

The commander-in-chief can turn a blind eye to us, but if there are heavy casualties, he will not be able to find his grave even if he cries.

Give those hot-headed guys below some air, and you won't know whose head the knife will fall on."

"No! What the division commander ordered is that the attack has been going well in the past few days. There are already some bastards who are thinking of attacking the main Gibraltar position.

I went to make it clear to them that Gibraltar must be eaten like a piece of cake, bite by bite.
Chapter completed!
