Chapter 282

After seven days of fierce resistance, John Douglas finally gave up.

This is not a battle, but a one-sided massacre.

Gibraltar's 100,000 defenders had almost no chance of firing.

When Gibraltar's artillery was exhausted, the Ming Dynasty's tanks drove into the forward position in a swaggering manner.

Whenever they see people, or where they are suspected of being people, they will blast them with artillery.

In order to clear the field of fire, almost all the trees in Gibraltar were cut down.

But what the British army didn't expect was that the shooting boundary was mutual. You cleared the shooting boundary and could see the enemy clearly, but the enemy could also see you clearly.

But the problem is that the Ming army can use tanks as movable bunkers. The British army has no weapons to destroy those tanks!

The bunkers and bunkers of the British army were just cement coffins.

The Ming army had moved its 122mm howitzer to a location only three kilometers away from the British position and used it like a cannon.

No matter how thick the bunker is, one shot will have no power to fight back. Even if the bunker is not completely blown to pieces, it can kill and stun the people inside.

If you encounter a bunker that is too strong, it doesn't matter! We still have a 155mm howitzer!

Push it to a distance of five kilometers and bombard the bunker. If one shot doesn't work, use two. If two cannons don't work, use three. If you don't believe it can't blow you up, kid.

Not yet?

It doesn't matter, we have Stukas in the sky. Five-hundred-kilogram aerial bombs, one shot of the initiation attack will penetrate the soul.

If that doesn't work, then you can only apply for the use of 970mm mortars.

The shells of this thing weigh two tons, no matter what kind of bunker you have, how big or thick it is, whether it is made of reinforced concrete or steel plates.

Once a shell hits the ground, there will be a crater ten meters deep.

This is the real shot into the soul, even the soul is gone.

The British's so-called fierce resistance was to wait for the Ming army's tanks to advance and shoot out streaks of black fire on the tanks.

There was no way, the Ming army led with tanks, but they did not stay a hundred meters away to provide fire support.

Instead, he accompanied the infantry and rolled over the British position.

This time, Ming Dynasty also used a very cruel weapon-the flamethrower.

This thing will spray something similar to an aerosol, and it won't panic when it hits an underground bunker.

Just throw a grenade in and make sure there is no one at the entrance. The flamethrower will spray it inside!

This thing will catch fire wherever it is sprayed. The Ming army will also thoughtfully place explosives to blow up the hole in the underground bunker.

If the bunker was just a bunker without underground passages, the soldiers inside would be in misery.

The flames will deplete the oxygen inside and suffocate the people inside to death.

Don't be too happy if there are underground passages, because the Ming army will look for the entrance to every underground bunker and then use explosives to blow it down one by one.

John.\nDouglas initially thought that if the artillery firepower could not keep up, he could engage in close combat at night.

As a result, after the Ming army occupied the British army's surface position during the day, they were in no hurry to advance.

Instead, they retreated after blowing up those cave entrances, which rendered the British army's carefully prepared minefields useless.

It also made the plan of taking advantage of the darkness at night to sneak up to the high ground and fight hand-to-hand with the Ming army come to nothing.

As the sun set, the British army could only watch the Ming army a few kilometers away return to the trenches, drinking wine and singing songs.

Then he lay down in the trench and slept, waiting for tomorrow morning when the energetic Ming army would launch another attack.

The British army was not so lucky. They were tired all night, restoring the positions that were blown up yesterday, and laying mines on the positions.

But they did not expect that the Ming army had already laid mines here when they withdrew.

The Ming army's mines were much stronger than those of the British army, mainly because the Ming army had plastic.

Plastic is a by-product of the oil industry, and Ming Dynasty certainly has oil. Now the Basra oil field is no longer enough to supply Ming Dynasty's growing oil demand, so Qatar has become another oil field concentration.

Since the first oil well drilled oil four months ago, Daming's drillers drilled more than ten oil wells within four months.

Moreover, the number of oil wells continues to increase.

The biggest advantage of engineering plastics is that they can be made into any shape or color at will.

They might be a clod of soil on the ground, or they might be a stone. They might even be a broken limb that was blown off!

Anyway, everything on the ground may be a landmine. It is difficult to tell which ones are landmines in the dark.

As a result, the British troops who laid mines could only move within the minefields of the Ming army. Finally, with the explosions, they turned into people with mutilated limbs.

"The First Clan"

Of course, the British army also laid a lot of landmines. They would give the Ming army a solid lesson during the daytime the next day.

Unexpectedly, the Ming army did not rush into the position the next day. Instead, they drove a tank with a roller on the front!

This kind of tank is extremely strong, especially the big roller at the front, which is made of half a meter thick steel plate.

British mines kept exploding under the rollers.

These special tanks won't even stagger when a mine explodes with little power.

A more powerful one can only make this kind of specially reinforced tank sway.

With the British army stunned, the Ming army opened a passage.

The landmines could only explode in vain on the ground, not even touching a single hair of the Ming army.

After playing this game for seven days, the British army collapsed.

John.\nDouglas sent an envoy and formally proposed to Ming Dynasty to start surrender negotiations.

Two coaxing British officers came to the Ming army's position with white flags.

Made a few requests!

Request the Ming army to cease fire from now on!

The Ming army was required to ensure the safety of life and property of the surrendered British troops.

Ask the Ming Army to agree to send all British troops back home!

Ask the Ming army to treat wounded British prisoners of war!

Request the Ming Army...!

Cao Wenzhao didn't wait for these two bastards to finish speaking before he replied to them. A very simple reply: "Get out!"

Then the two British junior officers left!

The British negotiator successfully obtained a round of artillery fire for himself. Cao Wenzhao even used heavy rocket launchers to plow the British position.

After the shelling, the British army's position was scorched black, and thick smoke billowed hundreds of meters into the sky.

Two companies of the British army were lost because of their ignorance.

After the shelling, the British army conducted rescue excavations for a long time, but could not dig out a few whole corpses.

John.\nDouglas once again received a telegram from London, and the content was the same as before, telling him to wait for help.

In the eyes of the gentlemen in London, the fortifications in Gibraltar were already impregnable after two years of construction.
