The tanks pressed towards the Jiangbei troops on both sides, and the grenadiers followed them like shadows.

Everywhere the tank went, it withered and decayed. Where did the soldiers of the Jiangbei Army withstand such grenade bombardment? These rebels often suffered one or two rounds of explosions in the trenches, and then cried and shouted and crawled out of the trenches and fled to the rear.

One hundred and fifty tanks were like 150 invulnerable and invincible gods, stabbing left and right on the positions of the Jiangbei Army, not only causing partial collapse, but also severely impacting the morale of the Jiangbei Army as a whole.

The loss of one trench after another is like a falling domino, which is about to cause the collapse of the entire Jiangbei Army.

At the same time, eight observation hot air balloons were raised by the rear Tiger Army. The hot air balloon soldiers rose to an altitude of 100 meters and used binoculars to carefully observe the various fronts of the Jiangbei Army, monitoring the enemy situation at all times.

In the panicked battlefield, Wu Sangui didn't have time to pay attention to the hot air balloon of the Tiger Army.

He lay on the edge of the trench with bloodshot eyes, his teeth clattering.

The throne of the county king, which was about to be obtained, was beaten to naught by Li Zhi's tiger army, which made the ambitious Wu Sangui not agree no matter what.

Wu Sangui looked at Shi Kefa and found that the Nanjing Military Department Shangshu was looking at the tanks on the battlefield with his mouth open, and he was speechless.

Wu Sangui took a breath anxiously, suddenly slapped the outer wall of the trench, and shouted: "Turn the curved artillery to the back and use the curved artillery to blow up these tiger army!" ”

Wu Sangui was going to use a curved gun to blow up the grenadiers behind the tank.

Shi Kefa's eyes lit up when he heard this, he was stunned for a while, and couldn't help but say loudly: "Wonderful! Clever plan! At this time, it was different from just now, and at this time, the Tiger Ben Army was all near that chariot! Quickly pass the order down, let the curved artillery quickly retreat! Retreat 200 paces away and shell the enemy! ”

Wu Sangui looked at the flat ground behind the trench and took a breath.

At this time, the fifth and sixth layers of trenches of the Jiangbei Army were within 50 meters of the tanks, and the mortars could not shoot flowering shells at such a close distance. If the Jiangbei Army wanted to bombard the grenadiers behind the tanks with "curved guns", it had to move the mortars a few hundred meters behind.

The Jiangbei Army did not anticipate the need to bombard near its own trenches, so it did not dig trenches deeper in the rear. At this time, if the Jiangbei Army's "curved artillery" was to move back, it would have to leave the trench and open fire on the ground.

Although Wu Sangui could think of using the curved artillery to retreat to break the battle situation, he didn't know if the curved artillery could survive on the battlefield if he left the trench.

The battlefield was chaotic, and there were a large number of chariots in the middle to block the view, and it stands to reason that the Tiger Army could not see the retreat of these curved artillery. As long as the Tiger Army has no sight, it will not be able to attack these artillery.

However, the means of the Li thief...

Wu Sangui clenched his fists, and a nervous fine sweat broke out on his head.

Wu Sangui didn't understand what the hot air balloon raised by the Tiger Army was for.

Against the enemy with cold weapons, the hot air balloon can be said to be a large killer weapon of the air fortress. Against enemies using thermal weapons, the hot air balloon cannot directly attack the enemy, but it can provide a view of the entire battlefield. It can be said that with a hot air balloon, it is possible to grasp all the movements of the enemy.

Every move of the Jiangbei Army was under the surveillance of the Tiger Ben Army. The observers on the hot air balloon quickly threw down a note reporting that the Jiangbei Army was moving the curved guns to the rear.

Zheng Kaicheng smiled and said to Zhong Feng: "Wu Sangui has some solutions. ”

Zhong Feng sneered and said, "Wise and short-sighted, drilled and repeated, this is not a good general." ”

Zheng Kaicheng laughed and said: "Uncle Zhenbei doesn't want to pick bones in eggs, in the Jiangbei Army, Wu Sangui is the best general." ”

Wu Sangui is indeed a good general. On such a battlefield, in the face of the epoch-making weapons of the Tiger Army, he was able to flexibly dispatch various weapons and find out possible countermeasures.

However, in the face of absolute technological superiority, no amount of struggle is meaningless.

Zheng Kaicheng gave an order, and the three hundred rifled heavy guns of the Tiger Ben Army were aimed at the mortars of the Jiangbei Army. Under the command of the hot air balloon observers, the heavy artillery aimed at the curved artillery of the Jiangbei Army, which was moving towards the rear.

"Boom!"

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

The cannonballs swept across the battlefield like meteors, shooting straight at the curved guns of the Jiangbei Army that left the trenches.

Wu Sangui saw the heavy artillery shells that crossed his head, and suddenly he was struck by lightning, and his face was like ashes.

Before the artillerymen of the Jiangbei Army reached their destination, they encountered the shells flying over, and one by one they were so frightened that they ran around and fell to the ground desperately.

The first shot, the hit rate was not too high. But the sharp-eyed balloonists can help the artillery adjust the angle, so the second shot hit rate is very impressive.

The 300 24-pound guns used more than 20 pounds of flowering shells, and when they exploded, they were a large area. The explosion formed by this heavy artillery is not comparable to that of a grenade, and the shock wave can destroy all personnel and equipment in a distance of more than ten meters in an instant. The artillery of the Jiangbei Army could not avoid the huge shock wave of the explosion even if they were lying on the ground, and I don't know how many people were killed.

The idea that the Jiangbei Army wanted to set up artillery to bomb the grenadiers was not possible at all.

After being blown up three times, the curved artillery artillery was blown to the ground. The artillerymen ignored the men who were in charge and shouted on the ground, and fled to the west with their heads in their hands.

Shi Kefa originally hoped that the curved artillery could play a miraculous effect and change the tide of the battle, but what he waited for was the collapse of the artillery. All of a sudden, he turned pale, closed his eyes weakly, and fell to the wall of the trench.

The Jiangbei Army has no way to get tanks, and there is no suspense about the outcome of the war.

On the battlefield, the tanks protected the grenadiers from moving on the edge of the trenches, sweeping the entire front with the speed of foot.

The demoralized rebels simply could not withstand the oppression of such chariots and collapsed one by one.

Not to mention the ordinary rebels in the local military towns, the combat effectiveness of these local armies is already very poor and their morale is very low. At this time, they saw that the battle situation was unfavorable, and they only had the heart to escape, and as soon as they saw the tanks approaching, they fled in pieces, and they did not have the slightest idea of resisting at all.

There were also a very small number of Jiangbei troops with unusual resilience who tried to storm the Tiger Ben Army behind the tank. However, there were 10,000 tiger troops standing densely behind the tank at this time, and the firepower was very powerful. The few Jiangbei troops who rushed out of the trench finally lined up to pass through the tank gap, and before they could enter the Tiger Ben army, they were crushed by the ferocious shotguns.

There are only a lot of soldiers that can fit in a trench within the unit length. On the local battlefield behind the tanks, the 10,000 Tiger Ben army had a numerical advantage. Coupled with the advanced weapons in hand, it is not so easy to deal with.

If the Jiangbei Army in the distance wanted to rush out of the trench and surround the grenadiers together, it would be routed by the Tiger Ben Army with rear-loading rifles, which was not a solution.

The battle lasted for an hour, and the tanks and grenadiers destroyed all the way, and after breaking the front five-mile front, the Jiangbei Army completely collapsed.
