Chapter 274: Heavy Artillery Siege

Dongguan city wall, gunsmoke billowing.

The positions of the 741 regiment were under heavy shelling.

Woohoo!

Boom Boom!

Bright red flames erupted on the walls.

One after another, the Sichuan soldiers were blown upside down and flew upside down.

A few recruits were scared and scurrying around.

Cheng Xiang opened his voice and shouted: "Damn it, don't fucking run around, hide in place for Lao Tzu!"

As he spoke, Cheng Xiang saw that three recruits who were running around were hit by artillery fire, and then they were killed.

Cheng Xiang sighed heavily, a recruit is a recruit, and when a cannon came over, the whole person panicked!

The artillery fire lasted for a full 30 minutes, and soon the second brigade of the devils began to kill the city wall of Dongguan.

Staring at the devil 800 meters away, Cheng Xiang opened his voice and shouted: "All battalions listen to my orders!" Ready, ready to attack! ”

Hearing this, the soldiers of the Sichuan Army who survived the artillery fire pointed their weapons at the little devils in the distance.

At this time, the commander of the first battalion ran towards Cheng Xiang with his waist bent.

The commander of the first battalion lowered his voice and shouted: "Regiment seat, the grenade is in place!"

Nodding slightly, Cheng Xiang shouted: "Okay, distribute the grenades to the brothers at the battlement, and tell them to go down, once the little devil approaches the root of the city wall, throw it to Lao Tzu and blow up these bitches!"

The commander of the first battalion replied: "Yes!"

Subsequently, the commander of the first battalion distributed more than a dozen boxes of grenades to the Sichuan soldiers at the battlement.

……

At this time, the devil soldiers had already entered the battle distance of 400 meters.

Suddenly pointing his saber forward, the captain of the second brigade opened his voice and shouted: "Warriors of the Empire, fool cock! Fool Cock! ”

Hearing the captain's order, the devil's various weapons began to fire at the city wall.

Da-da-da-da!

Bang bang bang!

Rub and go!

Countless bullets flew towards the Sichuan army on the city wall.

However, due to the good resistance of the city walls, the damage of these bullets is extremely limited!

Devil soldiers shoot as they march.

Some of the devil soldiers followed with long bamboo ladders, and their goal was to transport the bamboo ladders to the root of the wall.

Soon, the Sichuan army on the castle tower discovered the ladders.

In the next moment, the mortars placed on the tower began to focus on the ladder.

As long as these bamboo ladders are defeated, the difficulty of the devil trying to reach the city will have to be increased by one level!

Mortars constantly whistled and flew over.

In an instant, three ladders were blown off.

The devil soldiers who carried the ladder were also killed and wounded by the explosion.

The second captain gritted his teeth at all this, and his whole heart was dripping blood.

With a look of rage, the second captain brandished his saber and shouted, "Where is the mortar squad?"

A squad leader hurried over.

The second captain shouted: "Order the mortar gunners, bring me the mortars of the Chinese army!" Fast! ”

Agreed, and the squad leader quickly commanded the mortar group to conduct target observation.

At the next moment, the house on the upper floor of the city was subjected to a volley of mortars.

Before the mortars of the Chinese army on the tower of the city could be transferred, they were blown up in pieces.

In this way, the remaining bamboo ladder finally reached the base of the wall smoothly.

Crooked light machine guns continued to fire at the head of the city.

Type 89 grenadiers also poured grenades at the Sichuan soldiers at the battlements.

The devil soldiers who were transporting the ladder quickly erected the ladder under the cover of fire.

Near the ladders, there are small devils waiting to climb the city wall.

With hideous faces, one by one the little devils began to climb the city wall with a Type 38 rifle in one hand.

……

The head of the Dongguan city wall.

The fighters of the 741 regiment are fighting bloodily.

The two Maxim heavy machine guns fired wildly, and a fierce confrontation with the devil's Type 92 heavy machine gun began.

At the same time, the soldiers of the Sichuan army kept pulling the bolts of the Hanyang-made rifles and shooting at the little devils under the city.

Da-da-da-da!

Bang bang bang!

The battle between us and the enemy was fierce.

Due to the superiority of the condescending height, the Sichuan soldiers took advantage of the battle at the head of the city, and the little devils under the city were almost suppressed rhythm.

Rao is like this, the devil's grenadier is not a vegetarian, and grenades continue to fly up the city.

The soldiers of the Sichuan army, who were fighting desperately, were constantly knocked down by sudden grenades.

Raising a Type 79 rifle and knocking down a devil soldier, Cheng Xiang opened his voice and shouted: "Brothers, hold on, you must hold on to the city wall of Dongguan!"

As soon as the words fell, the second battalion commander on the side exclaimed: "Tuanzao, it's not good, the little devil has started to climb the city wall!"

At that moment, Cheng Xiang raised his voice and shouted: "All of them, throw grenades under the city!" Fast! ”

Hearing this, the Sichuan army at the head of the city threw a large grenade at the devil at the root of the city.

Between the lightning and flint, the roots of the Dongguan city wall burst into flames.

At the same time, the firelight was mixed with the screams of the ghost soldiers.

A few waves of grenades came down, and the base of the city was full of the corpses of the little devils.

Throwing a snorting and smoking grenade into the city again, the battalion commander shouted excitedly: "It's so fucking cool, Tuanza, these waves of grenade devils have to lie down at least half of the squadron!"

Before Cheng Xiang could answer, suddenly a pumpkin grenade was thrown up from under the city wall.

Without saying a word, he threw the first battalion commander to the ground.

Bang!

The pumpkin grenade exploded, debris scattered everywhere, and the two Sichuan soldiers on the left were killed.

Shaking off the dust on the steel helmet, he quickly ran to a horse face to observe.

, the little devils are still climbing the ladder, and some of the little devils are about to arrive at the city!

This grenade was thrown up by the little devil who climbed the ladder just now.

These little devils are really bushido, and they can't be killed by throwing so many grenades.

This is also unscientific!

The battlement is the shooting blind spot of the Sichuan army, and it is difficult to kill and injure the little devils who are climbing the ladder when shooting at the battlement.

With a slight groan, Cheng Xiang immediately ordered the machine gunner to move to several horse faces and flank the devils who were climbing the ladder.

The role of the horse face is to flank the enemy who ascends the city, which still has military defensive value in the era of hot weapons.

Da-da-da-da!

The Czech light machine gun on the horse's face constantly beckoned to the little devil who climbed the ladder.

One by one, the little devils fell down the ladder.

The devil's ascension to the city has completely failed!

There was a thick layer of corpses stacked under the roots of the city, all of which were from the Tenth Wing.

Since ancient times, siege operations, the defender has always been in an advantageous position, even in modern warfare, without the blessing of heavy artillery, the success probability of ordinary infantry siege is still almost the same as in the era of cold weapons.

In order to break the defensive advantage of the city wall, the best way is to use large-caliber heavy artillery to bombard a certain point of the city wall.

As long as there is a gap in the wall, then the balance of power between the attacking and defending sides will change.

The defender no longer has an advantage, and the attacker can now talk directly to the defender!

Seeing that the second brigade was defeated, Chishiba Yaezo's face couldn't help but collapse.

Shaking his head heavily, Chichai Yaezo groaned and shouted: "It seems that large-caliber heavy artillery is still needed for siege operations, Chief of Staff, let the second captain withdraw first!"

The chief of staff on the side responded: "Yes!"

At this time, an artillery squadron leader ran over: "Report to Your Excellency, Wing Commander, the heavy artillery has been prepared!" It's time to start shelling! ”

The color on his face suddenly lit up, and Akashiba Yaezo shouted, "Yo Xi! Three minutes later, an artillery bombardment was carried out! I've got to blast a gap out! ”

Raising his head towards Chichai Yaezoichi, the artillery squadron leader shouted in response: "Haiyi!"
