Just when the airship ordered to be grounded. Most of the Allied forces launched a large-scale attack on the city of Loulan.

The scale of Loulan City is not very large. It was about the same size as a county town in the Qin state. But even so. The fast-advancing Allied cavalry units did not quickly occupy either.

Most of the weapons of the cavalry units were rifles. And all are short-barreled carbines. In addition to these weapons, there are also pistols that are personally equipped. Perhaps it was the reason why most of the Allies were mercenaries. They are extremely good at fighting field warfare. And not the city storm. Because urban storming requires powerful firepower and infantry combat. Mercenaries, accustomed to field warfare, wanted to occupy Loulan City. But it will take a little time.

Loulan's determination to resist the Allied forces was great. The frequent harassment of the Qin State had already aroused the dissatisfaction of the other party. Especially Loulan country. Now their main forces are annihilated. But their national fighting spirit is still there. Especially in the past, when the Qin State harassed it, it was often treated in a cruel way. When sweeping through its tribes. If the other party resists slightly. Then these security guards will slaughter them all. It is usually done to open up a distance and shoot intensively. Then throw grenades. Perform an attack before advancing. Most of the security personnel are equipped with light weapons. Heavy weapons. Artillery, machine guns are also difficult to configure. The main thing is that they rely on speed to achieve suddenness and sweep.

This method lost most of the opportunity to acquire slaves. Few survive in such a way that is akin to a massacre. But two resources can make up for their losses. Gold and raw jade. These things, which were merely sacrifices to the women of these tribes or priests, became the object of their robbery. And the amount of such a thing in a tribe seems to be very large. Just conquer one tribe and the rewards will be great.

Such atrocities naturally provoked resistance from the Loulan people. In particular, Loulan City heard about the massacre of the tribe. Be more resolute in resisting Allied attacks.

The Allies had planned to take the city by sneak attack. But now it doesn't seem to work. Loulan City has made careful defensive measures. Only lightly armed Allied vanguard cavalry units could only blockade. Difficult to siege. They needed the support of artillery and infantry to follow up in the rear.

But logistical transportation has become a huge problem. The challenge is not road transport. It's the complexity of supplies. before. Such a problem would definitely not arise in the Qin State. The Qin State was the first country to adopt standardized production weapons. But now. This criterion is diversified. When the Qin State was equipped with new artillery. Artillery of a unified caliber was not adopted. Instead, a large number of experimental models of artillery were adopted. Artillery requires a variety of ballistic data measurements. Even if it's the fastest. It will also take half a year. Some are longer. And. There were many factories in the Qin State that produced weapons. Especially artillery. Major weapons companies in order to grab orders. All preemptively built several models of artillery. And there are a lot of variety. In terms of caliber, shells of more than 80 calibers appeared, ranging from three inches to six .5 inches. There are also a lot of types of artillery. Howitzers, field guns. Light infantry artillery. Curved guns. Some companies in order to get orders from the military. actually gave the experimental artillery to Yingyu for free, and later when the military took over. There were hundreds of shell models stockpiled at the front.

These various types of artillery shells intensified the transportation pressure of the Qin State. However, the weapons still rely on the logistical supply mode of their commercial operation.

When counterattacking an attack. Due to the large number of shells hoarded at the front. This is not obvious. No one paid attention either. The artillerymen only need to send more men to find the shells they want. Logistics management is also very chaotic. Because there are too many standards for the format type of the bill of materials. Logistics officers can only manage light weapons. Artillery shells simply left it alone.

The battle on the front line is going well. The cavalry units of the Qin army began the famous victorious march. With the elongation of logistical supply lines. This problem is gradually exposed.

The artillery will find out after a few days of advance. The artillery they used turned out not to supply shells of this type. And some are even more ridiculous. There were shells without artillery. Is the logistics crazy? Artillery without shells was even offered at will.

And the transporters were also very distressed. There is a lot of weaponry. Even they themselves can't figure out what's on their car? Sometimes, when they arrived, they opened the box and realized that they were transporting down jackets. When has this been, the logistics officer actually sent out all the down jackets.

And the logistics officer was even more dizzy. When they took over. I don't even know what those supplies are. And some of the supplies were mislabeled. It was this diversification of products and the backward management of Qin's logistical methods that caused the artillery units to take a long time to arrive.

Wang Ben first reduced the types of artillery used by artillery to two. A five-inch howitzer that fires a grenade. The gun is a Type III howitzer produced by the Wenyang Arsenal. A large amount of equipment. The other is a 3.5-inch light gun. Mainly used by infantry and cavalry artillery units. Logistics only needs to supply two shells. Other shells were kept in good condition and transported back to China after the war was over.

Logistics and transportation. The Logistics and Transport Service is not managing the distribution of ammunition. Rather, it was given directly to the combat troops. Combat units solve the problem of ammunition delivery on their own. The supply list is provided according to their own needs. Instead of the logistics department assigned according to the order from above. Such. This temporarily solves the problem of logistical supply chaos.

Actually, this is a good thing. This shows that the Qin State can not only meet the huge demand for quantity in the country. It also meets a wide range of needs. This gives those procurement officials a great deal of choice in their status. Before. Procurement officers can only agonize over one type of weaponry. This distress quickly turned into not knowing what kind of weapon to choose. This mindset has not yet been converted. Let them make adjustments quickly. Thereupon. The phenomenon of all kinds of weapons appearing on the front line.

The military also did not give a clear list of specific calibers. This is also one of the reasons for increasing logistical efforts. But the preparatory stage for this war is a commercial war. It was later given to the government to take over. It's hard to avoid chaos.

With the arrival of artillery. The reserves of shells gathered. The Allies began a massive artillery raid.

Infantry artillery pierced the earthen walls. Howitzers shelled the city aimlessly. The city was in flames. Death is everywhere. The smashing of the corpses exacerbated the fear. Determination is no longer able to defend this real-life Loulan City. She's not Spirit City. It's a reality.

Under artillery shelling. Loulan City has been breached!
