The Kwantung Coalition was somewhat unimpressed by the Republican Army's use of air supplies. They believe that their lockdown has worked very well. There are also those who think that this is a good thing, at least those things that fly in the sky can finally stop throwing damn ** on their heads. There are many people who have died in such a bombardment, and there is nothing they can do about it, but now, they finally know the importance of some of their current situation. Under such a situation, it is indeed extremely advantageous that they can have such great development.

However, the Kwantung coalition never dreamed of it. The IRA went on the offensive faster than they thought.

"Boom. Whoosh. Rumble. Rumble. Rumble. "The shells were constantly whistling, exploding on the positions of the Kwantung coalition forces, and then producing billowing smoke.

Before, Dong Zhuo's army used solid cannonballs, and when they hit it, it was a bloody road, relying on huge kinetic energy to destroy everything, that kind of cannonball. The distance of the blow is generally limited. It won't explode either. Unless it hits somewhere, in such a situation, it can explode.

But the Republican Army used ***, and only a very small number of this kind of shells were used in Dong Zhuo's army before, and the number was very small.

This kind of shell not only explodes when it is shot, but also produces shrapnel with great lethality, and at the same time, the range of this shell is also very amazing, reaching four miles. Because it is a curve launch, this kind of launch is far beyond many people's understanding. This needs to be built on an extremely complex mathematical model, as far as the current point of view, whether it is the more advanced Dong Zhuojun artillery, the artillery they use is generally fired in a straight line, and rarely use shells for curved combat, because that requires a large number of shells to experiment, and then adjust according to some of their own experience. It's all about the accumulation of experience. In addition, the intensity of artillery losses is also relatively large, and the number of artillery who really have firing experience is very small.

And the Kwantung Coalition's understanding of artillery is still stuck in a straight line of fire, in their opinion, artillery is another kind of large crossbowmen.

But now, all this completely subverts their understanding, and the reason is very simple, their fortifications are all based on the defense of Dong Zhuojun's artillery. Because the opponent's artillery is not very far away. They built two defensive trenches. The trenches were not connected to each other by means of communication trenches. In the rear, a line of surface fortifications, camps, observation posts, etc., made of various timbers, was built, and even the places where the soldiers lived were built on the surface. Because living in a trench, there are many problems, and beriberi is a huge threat. Soldiers still prefer to live above the surface.

And the fortifications of the Kwantung coalition army are basically within the fire coverage of the republican artillery.

Gao Shun's troops were flanks in the frontal position, and their third battalion was to be the first infantry battalion to rush out to attack the follow-up troops.

In order to better open the offensive channel. Gao Shun came up with a good solution, that is, they camped at night. All crawled out and lurked not far in front of the enemy's position. Then, after the fire is over, they will be able to attack as soon as possible. This is a very bold tactic. At one point, his superiors thought Gao Shun had gone mad. But Zhang Liao saw the big killing at a glance, and he decided to agree with Gao Shun's risky tactics.

Therefore, they are now the closest unit of the entire Republican army to the enemy, and if a shell falls near them and causes serious losses, they deserve it, and if the enemy discovers it, the situation will become extremely dangerous. This kind of thing is very likely to happen.

It was the first time Gao Shun had seen a shell that would explode. In order to achieve suddenness. The attack is launched in the middle of the night, as it makes good use of the suddenness.

There are still some night blindness among soldiers, but more of them have improved to a certain extent. On the contrary, the situation of the opposing army is very bad, and the Republican army is good at attacking at night. The suddenness is going to be very big.

"The cannonballs fall on the ground like meteors, and then cause a bigger explosion on the ground, and you may be able to feel the tremor of the cannonballs falling on the ground. Nobody likes these. Gao Shun thought so.

Gao Shun looked back at the recruits from time to time, many of them were a little nervous, and they looked at each other at some of the situations in the sky. When the attack is launched, they themselves do not know what will happen, after all, in such a situation, the war will be fought to a greater extent.

The Republican artillery offensive was very advantageous. Even, to a large extent, the offensive posture is created. Through the faint glow, they could see a large number of shells destroying the few positions. Camp facilities.

In the continuous bombardment, the soldiers of the Kwantung Coalition Army seemed to collapse. Running around, but soon, they were routed again. The continuous bombardment of artillery shells formed a large barrage.

At this time, Gao Shun was thinking about one thing, if a large number of shells fell on their heads, would they collapse. The continuous shelling time is very much, according to the Republican Army, the shelling will last for two hours, that is, an hour, in Gao Shun's view, as long as it lasts for a quarter of an hour, all the problems can be solved, and there is no need to waste more shells.

"Be careful, don't move. There was also a wave of shelling. Gao Shun said this to his soldiers after the artillery stopped bombardment. He was afraid that the soldiers would move after the shelling stopped. Because according to the plan, the Republican army has a second shelling, and this time the shelling uses a new type of shell.

Gao Shun didn't know how many new weapons the Republican Army had come up with for this attack, but he knew that there were many more such weapons, because some classified weapons, with his current position, still couldn't access such a parameter.

"When we attacked, we've been crawling on the ground for so long. It's very hard. One soldier couldn't help but say.

"Don't move. Don't move. The second round of shelling will begin again, and this will take a short time. All endure. The officer walked back and forth and gave the order. Because the command is that they have to do it.

He believes that one shelling is far from being able to completely destroy the enemy's defenses, and they have to use more thorough methods to deal with such things, plus a certain distance difference between the artillery and the first range, so in such a situation, the second bombardment must be used to completely destroy the enemy's resistance and defense, which is the way they must deal with it.

"Whoosh." I don't know when, they suddenly felt a huge ghost-like whistling sound. If it weren't for the presence of officers and non-commissioned officers, many soldiers would have been afraid of a complete riot. Because they are afraid that this situation will happen completely, and in such a situation, it is difficult for them to stabilize all at once.

"Whoosh. Boom. Boom. "Explosions kept coming, and the cannonballs flying in the sky really crossed the sky like meteors in the sky.

"Sir, I've heard that our IRA has something called fireworks, just like what we're seeing right now. In such a case. The enemy will definitely not be able to resist. A lieutenant on the side said to Gao Shun. The other party was just a rural officer, who had previously served as a captain in the guerrillas. The tactical level is average. But dare to fight and dare to rush. is a brave officer.

"Boom. Rumble. "After the sound of shelling stopped. On the battlefield, there was a kind of silence for a short time, and this silence made everyone feel very terrifying.

"Rush." Gao Shun was the first to stand up and charge up with his battalion. The lieutenant was the second. Because the officers of the Republican Army must take the lead. This is the first thing that the commander must accept in the tactics class. Only when their commanders are on the front line can they inspire the soldiers to charge to a greater extent.

"Kill. Kill. "The attack went very well. Gao Shun didn't expect it to be so smooth.

In the entire position, as well as in the rear camp of the Kwantung coalition army, not many people were beaten, and the rest were wounded soldiers, as well as those who surrendered, and in such a situation, their situation became very favorable.

Next, Gao Shun fought completely according to their own intentions. I thought that the two artillery preparations had completely crippled the opponent's defense system. More enemies are fleeing helplessly, and they have little chance of continuing a fight.

Zhang Liao looked at the situation map on the battlefield in his headquarters. Each small flag represents an infantry battalion, and the communications staff officers are constantly moving in and out, putting the situation on the battlefield on the map. The situation can be seen at a glance all the changes in the situation on the battlefield.

The offensive is still well underway. However, there were some surprises on the battlefield.

"Order the troops, for the entrenched enemy, do not launch a fierce attack, defend, pay attention to the defense is enough. As for the rest, we can all leave it alone. Zhang Liao emphasized again.

Because in this attack, they also have to face Cao Cao's troops, and the troops who hold on may be in a misunderstanding for some reason, and then form a strong battle. These are the things that the IRA has tried to avoid.

After all, the task given by the Republican Army was simple: to defeat the other side. Instead of giving them more enemies to annihilate.

The flank of the Kwantung Coalition was torn through a large opening, and the Republican Army was constantly pouring into it, and the Kwantung Coalition was simply unable to organize an extremely effective resistance, and this situation was quickly transmitted to the entire coalition army.
