Chapter 324: The Power of Artillery
"I think I want bad food. If I continue to fight like this, there will be no chance for us to take action."
An infantry squad leader held up his gun and waited for a long time but didn't see many troops rushing over. A team of 100 people came just now, but was shot out by brothers in a round of volleys.
"Who said it was no? I told me that these artillery soldiers were working too hard. Yesterday we helped them transport shells. Today these guys ate meat and didn't even give us any soup."
The soldiers next to him said depressedly that while preparing yesterday, their entire company went to help the artillery transport shells. Hundreds of people in the entire company transported tens of thousands of shells. Today, it was better. It was probably these shells that made them fight without a fight.
"Shut up, everyone doesn't want to live anymore, but what if you don't see anyone coming ahead? I'll shoot me a little bit later. If you can't shoot the first shot correctly, don't expect to have a record."
The company commander happened to walk behind the two men and kick them one by one.
What the company commander said is the truth. Although the enemy came from the front, it seemed to be only one or two thousand people. There were several guns on our side. If you couldn't shoot the first shot correctly, you would never have the chance to shoot the second shot.
Gao Jie also felt that this battle was a bit too vigorous. In fact, it could be handled without a platform, but Gao Jie had nothing to regret.
He remembered what Zhu Cilang said, killing a chicken with a ox knife is not a shameful thing. What he fears most is to use an unhappy knife to kill a chicken. Don’t worry about the kind of knife you use. As long as you can win the battle against the epidemic, it will be correct.
A group of cavalry rushed up with their sabers. When they entered a distance of 120 meters, a regiment commander here waved his commander, and thousands of soldiers behind him shot at the hundreds of people in the front at the same time, as if they were suddenly frozen.
It seems like there is an invisible line here, and no matter how fast the cavalry rushed here, they were shot down here.
Some cavalrymen were shot in many bullets and were beaten into sieve on horseback.
The cavalry running behind them thought they had seen a ghost, but they had no chance to howl loudly because some bullets penetrated the bodies of these soldiers and solved the soldiers behind them.
The infantry brothers are all like this, not to mention that the bomb drop teams prepared for the back were the most nervous during the past battles. As long as they were used, the troops outside would basically reach a range of 30 meters.
If you don't hurry up, there may be hand-to-hand combat at any time, but now there is no chance.
They also jumped up and looked outside, let alone thirty meters, not even a 100-meter line. No one came over the 100-meter line. All enemies who rushed through the 100-meter line were killed by snipers on the platform. Their gunman's skills were extremely accurate. It is said that everyone fired thousands of bullets.
In this era, thousands of bullets were fired, but they were different from the 21st century. Although these muskets were redeemed by the system, if they were to fire thousands of bullets, they would have to kill at least two guns.
Doudou...
The sound of the small drums moving forward was heard, and there was about one drummer for every thirty soldiers. When the soldiers advanced, they had to listen to the sound of the drum.
Otherwise, if some people walk too fast and some people walk too slowly, their queue will have a huge deviation. At that time, the enemy will charge back, and we will be in trouble.
"Start and go."
The officers also issued an order. Now the city of Dezhou Fucheng is in chaos. If they remained still, they would not achieve any results. Therefore, Gao Jie issued an order to move forward.
The two regiments of about 10,000 soldiers and the army immediately separated.
Looking at Gao Jie's position, about one-third of the entire rectangular queue began to break out of contact.
“Replacement.”
After the soldiers of these two regiments walked about thirty meters, the soldiers behind them quickly formed a new defensive front and all ran to their starting position just now. If there was anything wrong with these people in front, the people behind could also take it forward in time.
"Artifact extension adjustment angle."
The artillery also received a new order. There were not many people at the original shell point. Now most of the troops are retreating to Dezhou Prefecture, so their muzzles have to be adjusted.
"Has reached maximum range."
The artillery squad leader reported that after firing the shells of this base, they might have to transfer their positions, otherwise the artillery would not be able to support the front line and their role would be gone.
"After the five-speed rapid fire design is completed, move forward by 150 meters."
The artillery company commander received the order from above. After his order was issued, except for the three soldiers who needed to be shot, the others immediately went to prepare for other tasks.
Because artillery transfers bring a lot of things, you must prepare in advance. Every minute on the battlefield is very important, especially for artillery.
The soldiers fired the last three shells at the fastest speed. Although each cannon can only fire three shells, the overall number of cannons is very large. In this last wave of shooting, a total of more than 600 shells were shot towards the enemy's positions.
Gao Jie saw it very clearly on the stage. On the position of 4,000 meters and 1,600 meters, we fired a total of 19,000 artillery shells.
If a modern person looks at it here, he will understand what covering bombing is.
This is a completely dimensionality reduction strike. Not to mention dealing with the Qing cavalry, even against the British Red Army that appeared a hundred years later, our attack level can make them unable to find the North.
"Run quickly, they are rushing up."
Seeing the Ming army lined up in an orderly manner, pressing over the Qing army like a scattered sea of sea, the last bit of aura was gone, and this voice was shouted by the Eight Banners Cavalry.
During the last time in Qufu, at least the Eight Banners Cavalry persisted until the last moment. Even though they were at an absolute disadvantage, they still rescued Prince Yu Duoduo.
But these people under Prince Zheng really didn't give him face. Now there is still a distance, and these people are already running towards the city gate.
Prince Zheng sat in his seat, not knowing how to deal with everything in front of him.
This is the case with the general who has never fought a war. If he had a smooth battle, this guy had a hundred ideas, but if he had to deal with such an imminent defeat in front of him, he would probably have no idea...
