"Can we choose the weapons here at will?" Chen Tian asked, looking at the various weapons in the warehouse.

"Of course!" replied the instructor on the side, "I'll remind you here that you'd better choose appropriate weapons according to your tactics."

"Then what weapons did our opponent choose?"

"Well, I can't tell you," the instructor smiled and shook his head, "But you can find a way to collect information on this."

Chen Tian turned his head to look at Thomas, and the two looked at each other and Thomas ran away.

"Well..." Chen Tian thought for a while.

"We need two 6-pound infantry cannons, six Maxim machine guns, 300 rifles, and 100 grenades."

"Grenades? Very few people use this kind of thing, so there are not many grenades in our practice, so we can give you up to 50."

"Okay, we want as much as we have!"

After Chen Tian entered the third grade, the first thing he did was to participate in the annual third- and fourth-grade exercise confrontation, and the two sides were composed entirely of third- and fourth-grade trainees. In recent years, the exercise academy will invite the German Emperor and the General Staff to watch, so everyone hopes to perform well in front of His Emperor, especially the fourth-grade trainees who are about to graduate. Due to Chen Tian's outstanding performance before, he was selected as the commander by the third-grade trainees. Just now, Chen Tian was taking them to the warehouse to collect the weapons used for the exercise.

There are 332 students in the third grade and 340 students in the fourth grade.

"I've found out." Just as Chen Tian, ​​Oli and several other students were studying the map of the exercise area, Thomas ran in with a happy look on his face.

"Um?"

"The fourth graders chose 6 6-pound infantry guns, 2 12-pound infantry guns and 4 Maxim machine guns." Thomas paused and continued: "According to the college's records, the result of the last ten three- and four-grade confrontations was that the third grade was one win and nine losses, and it was at an absolute disadvantage."

"Oh! Thomas, thank you! It's a good job!" Chen Tian felt that Thomas was getting more and more talented in intelligence work.

"Okay! Then let's arrange it like this..." Chen Tian quickly drew on the map.

"Boom...boom..."

Black smoke rose from the third-grade position. Although the artillery shells were not shrapnel and the warhead was filled with less powerful black fire, it still made people feel the ground shaking.

"Unexpectedly, it seems that the other party is indeed the popular "artillery duel" idea, and concentrates the cannons to suppress our firepower." Chen Tian and most of the people squat in the deep trenches, leaving only a few people to observe through the periscope.

"Tell Oli and the others and start moving towards the predetermined position!" Chen Tian called the liaison officer to arrange the arrangement.

"Your Majesty, look! The fourth-grade students have well implemented the excellent traditions of our Prussian army. Their artillery fire has completely suppressed the other side. It seems that they will start attacking soon!" Duke Von Henman, the dean of the college, said softly in the ear of William II.

"It's not necessarily true! Their opponent's artillery has not fired at all!" William II's eyes still did not leave his telescope. Until now, he only saw one party pouring shells desperately from the telescope, but the effect seemed to be very small, because the other party's trench was dug very deep, and there were a few strange earthblocks in the middle of the trench. It seemed that there were machine gun fire points below. "The third-grade students' tactics are very strange, but the firepower is hidden very well! Interesting!"

"Your Majesty's heroic name! But as far as I know, there are only two 6-pound infantry cannons in the third grade!"

"What? There are only two 6-pound cannons? Their opponents' positions not only have several 6-pound cannons, but also two 12-pound cannons. Are their commanders a fool? Or are you deliberately equipped with only these cannons for them?" William II put down his telescope and looked at Duke Henman in surprise.

"Your Majesty, the weapons are freely chosen by them. We have not restricted the caliber and number of artillery guns. What's more, the commander of the third-year student is your nephew, Prince Gigi William!"

"Oh? It's him!" William II raised his telescope again, "It seems that he entered the Cornisburg Military Academy at the age of 7. He is already 16 years old this year! I haven't seen him for several years! He's okay here!"

"Go back to Your Majesty! His Highness the Prince is very smart and hardworking, and has excellent courses. It's just that sometimes I have weird ideas in my mind!"

"Oh... let's see what cards he will play today!"

In the distance, the fourth-grade students had stopped shelling, and the two hundred attacking troops had begun to form two echelons to prepare for the attack. Given Chen Tian's masterpiece during the last exercise, they left 100 people to protect the artillery position and arranged four heavy machine guns on four corners of the artillery position.

"Everyone is ready!" Chen Tian gave the order, and the people in the trench poked their heads out of the trench, raised their rifles to prepare for shooting. The machine gunners in the four earthblock bunkers also put bullet belts on the heavy machine guns.

The attacking queue was getting closer and closer to them, and the air was filled with a tense atmosphere. When the distance was only five hundred meters...

"Open fire!"

In an instant, the sound of machine guns and rifles shooting broke through the previous silence, and the attacking side also began to run and advance.

But when they were only fifty meters away from the trench, they found a wide trench in front of the trench. Although it was not deep, they found that they were suppressed after entering the trench and could not move. Climbing out of the trench means being exposed to the other party's muzzle at close range. According to the exercise regulations, they will be "dead" immediately!

"Quick, send a signal! Ask our artillery fire to bombard the opponent's position!" The commander of the attacking side who was hiding in the trench had to let the correspondent use the signal flare.

"Boom...boom..."

But this time the black smoke pillar rose on the artillery position of the fourth grade side.

On the edge of the woods about 2 kilometers to the right of the artillery position, Oli smiled. According to Chen Tian's plan, Oli and fifty other third-grade students quietly walked around the woods on the right of the opponent's artillery position with their only two infantry cannons. In this direction, the other party arranged two machine guns to prevent the opponent from sending troops to attack the artillery position from the direction of the woods. However, now two infantry cannons bombard them at a long distance, and the machine guns can do nothing.

"What's going on? Where did the other party attack us?" The artillery commander looked at the other party's position with a telescope in surprise, but there was no smoke from the artillery or artillery fired there, and their 6-pound cannons could not attack themselves from further afield.

"Boom...boom..."

The artillery positions were bombarded again, and this time, someone finally discovered the smoke rising from the edge of the woods.

"Over there! They're in the woods to our right!"

"Hurry! The cannon turns!" the artillery commander shouted loudly, but found that his position was already in chaos.

"Hurry, everyone rushed over with me!" In desperation, the commander had to pick up a rifle and rushed over with dozens of soldiers who were left behind. Unfortunately, when they were halfway through, the two machine guns brought by Oli opened fire.

"Dadada..."

When they rushed to Oli from a distance of one thousand meters, they found Oli waiting for them with a smile. Even if they were not "dead", they were only two infantry cannon guns that had been completely fired. At this time, their own artillery positions were already messed up.

The attack team of the fourth-grade students was still suppressed in the trench, and then dozens of grenades were thrown from the trench on Chen Tian, ​​"exploding" them all over their bodies and "dead" countless people...

According to the judgment of the exercise referee, the third-grade side won, with less than 50 casualties, 90% of the fourth-grade side were eliminated, and the rest were captured.
