Chapter 406: Bright Summer
The earth was torn apart, the dirt turned on both sides, and with the smoke and fire, a crater appeared on the ground to kill, one after another.
The Long Xiang Army had already displayed all its firepower, heavy machine guns and rifles formed a network of firepower, intertwined on the battlefield, and mortars roared incessantly, dropping shells one after another forward.
The cannonballs pierced the air with a piercing whistling sound, and when they hit the ground, they erupted with an even louder roar.
The Russian and Crimean soldiers in the charge were completely stunned, and they felt as if they had turned into light leaves, right in the middle of the storm.
The waves of air that erupted from all over the place pushed their bodies around like rags, and this was the first time that the two armies had come into contact with firearms on such a large scale, making them hardly able to keep their composure.
Whether it was an ordinary soldier or a high-ranking officer, all of them fell into a state of dumbness.
The soldiers in the front row fell down one by one as if they were cutting wheat, and the soldiers in the back row charged forward frantically in a panic for unknown reasons.
At this time, they no longer knew what they could do, it was naturally impossible to escape, it was a shame, and the line of command between officers at all levels had been completely broken, and the soldiers could not get orders from their superiors, all they could do was to charge frantically.
The commanders of the Russian Legion and the Crimean Legion were also in a state of stupor, because they were leaning on the higher ground in the rear, so they could clearly see what was happening on the battlefield.
At this moment, directly opposite them, it had almost turned into a black hole filled with flames and black smoke, like some terrible monster opening its mouth, facing them directly.
And the soldiers under their command were like sacrificial animals, like ignorant cattle and sheep, aimlessly filling the huge mouth.
They felt that they were not fighting an enemy, but a terrifying monster, like a legendary dragon that was constantly devouring the lives of their soldiers.
The thought of retreat crossed the minds of both commanders, and the fear had overwhelmed them.
This matter will definitely become a laughing stock, and the entire army of 100,000 people, facing the defense of 10,000 soldiers, actually retreated ahead of schedule, and even had a shameful sense of fear.
However, the commanders of the two legions knew very well that if anyone came over, even if it was the legendary generals, when he faced the picture in front of him, the first thing he thought of must be to retreat.
No one could remain calm under this terrible onslaught of flames, they were no longer ready to continue fighting, and even wanted to withdraw their troops directly from the Holy Roman Empire and return to their own country.
At this moment, in their opinion, the so-called weakness of the Holy Roman Empire is a huge conspiracy.
How can a country with such a terrible army be weak, this is simply incomparably strong.
Both Legion Commanders had already regretted it, but it was too late now, and their orders could not reach the ears of the charging soldiers.
The sound of gunfire was so intense that it completely obscured the transmission of orders, and in this way, the two commanders of the legion watched as their soldiers under their command were sent into the battlefield one after another, and then turned into cold corpses.
To be precise, the charge of the 100,000-strong army was not without effect, and in the end, the soldiers of the Longxiang army could not keep up with their ammunition, so they were finally rushed to the front of the front by a group of enemies.
The two sides engaged in a close-range slaughter, and the soldiers of the Longxiang Army also suffered some losses.
But this loss was nothing compared to the losses of the two large armies, and Simon also gave full play to the idea of positional warfare that Soguang had used in the city of Lebour.
He turned his defense line into several layers in front and back, and when the opposite side finally captured the next layer, the Long Xiang army retreated one layer as a whole, and then carried out a second round of interception.
The battle continued in this scorching state, and in the end, the morale of the Russian and Crimean Legions was finally completely broken, and the soldiers of both countries began to flee, even if it was a great risk.
They did not dare to charge, they did not dare to rush up again.
People are afraid of death, compared to this, these soldiers can be said to be quite brave, their fear of death still exists, but it has faded a lot.
At the same time, they are not so afraid of fighting, if the opposite side is a normal army, they will definitely be able to show their full strength, desperately attack and kill the other party, even if they die in battle.
However, at this moment, they were afraid, because it was not a battle at all, but more like a massacre.
They are the objects of slaughter, and they and their comrades are slaughtered like sheep, and there is no room for resistance.
They couldn't even see who the enemy was, they died in pieces in the fire and smoke, the blood spilled into the air, it became colder than ever, and on the summer sky, the sun radiated brightly, shining all around them very clearly, and all the colors showed their true appearance.
The surrounding environment is beautiful, verdant, like a piece of beautiful jade, such a beautiful world, where you can't go, where you can't live, why do you have to devote yourself to this battlefield like Shura hell.
Bombed limbs, blackened skin, hair burned, a mangled body lay on its back on the ground, eyes staring at the sky, watching the black clouds of smoke drift into the sky, looking at the white clouds higher in the sky.
There were only a few minutes left in his life, or a few seconds, and at this moment, it was as if he had lost all feelings, no pain, no thoughts.
This is a Russian soldier, he has a strong body like a black bear, he grew up in the jungles of Siberia, he has a rough and bold personality, and everyone who knows him likes to open his voice and sing an old ballad.
"Natasar ......"
The corners of the Russian soldier's mouth twitched, muttering these few syllables, no one knew who he was talking about, maybe it was his wife, this is most likely, maybe he was a dutiful son, and the last thing he remembered in his life was his elderly mother, maybe he was a father, and the name was his little daughter, who had just turned five.
No one knows, and there is no need to know.
The cannonballs splattered up another cloud of dirt and scattered it all over his body, covering his face and torso.
The Russian soldier slowly closed his eyes, and his life was lost forever on this battlefield.
