Chapter 252: The second year of junior high school continues to beat the British and French little pot friends to greet everyone for the New Year!
Click......
More than 100 12.7 mm ten-barreled Gatling machine guns opened fire in an instant, and a large number of bullets poured out as the tongues of fire spewed out.
Seeing that the British and French troops were about to break through the last 20-odd meters of defense line and rush into the Nanyang Army formation, they were suddenly wiped out, falling one by one, flesh and blood flying sideways, and screaming terrible.
What the hell is this Nima?
Chris, Raymond, Marin and others who were watching the battle from the rear were suddenly shocked, and for the first time they saw a weapon that could fire bullets continuously, their brains were instantly insufficient.
"Tell the soldiers to withdraw!" Raymond shouted, his instinct telling him that if he didn't pull back, the loss would be even greater.
However, Klaus disagreed, seeing that he was about to break through the last twenty meters of defense, if he gave up at this time, the previous losses would not be in vain.
This is the psychology of gamblers, who always want to get their money back, but have to lose money again and again.
"It's just the last little bit, rush over!"
Klaus roared, at this moment, no matter how big the casualties were, he could bear it, as long as he rushed over and snatched the artifact of the Nanyang Army that could fire bullets in bursts, then all the sacrifices were worth it.
But the ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny.
The last twenty meters of the distance, like a death blockade, the British and French troops could not rush through, one by one fell, corpses were strewn all over the field, and blood flowed like rivers.
Here, the Nanyang Army was also shocked, it was the first time they had seen this kind of mass killing weapon, but they quickly became excited and cheered.
Is there anything more pleasing than beating the British and French little pot friends?
Although the garrison of the Shanghai Town Guard Mansion, which was responsible for operating the Gatling machine gun, had long known the power of the Gatling machine gun, it was the first time that it was really used on the battlefield to kill the enemy.
The garrisons of Shanghai Town Guard Mansion became more and more excited. You see the deputy shooter in charge of the shaker screaming one by one, picking up his arms and shaking desperately, one hand is not enjoyable, two hands together, I can't wait for a few more hands to make the shaker turn faster.
"Fuck, shake it slowly, the bullets are jamming!"
A Gatling machine gun suddenly stalled, and the bullet jammed as the secondary shooter shook so fast. The main shooter immediately scolded.
"Ha, I'm so excited, I-I'll shake it slowly!"
The co-shooter said embarrassedly, and hurriedly stabbed the bullet out with the main shooter with the whole strip and started shooting again.
In less than a minute, the sub-shooter began to get excited again, and unconsciously accelerated his shaking again, and soon became stuck again.
"Holy. You're a special mother's owe beating, isn't it? ”
"Ah, not for example! Not an example! ”
The secondary shooter was very sad, and he couldn't be blamed for that, as soon as he shot him, he was excited. Excited, excited, excited and forgetful.
Something similar happened with other Gatling gun crews, which was common, but it was difficult for soldiers to control their emotions when they went into battle. As soon as the guns go off, the hormones are exuberant, which is killing. I will be killed by the enemy at any time, the nerves continue to be in a high-pressure state, and I will soon kill the red eye, usually shoot one shot in three seconds, when I go to the battlefield, the soldier can't wait to shoot five shots in one second, and the usual training instructor often says to shoot after aiming, and when I go to the battlefield, I forget it all fucking early, and I completely follow my own feelings.
This is the feeling that someone who has actually been on the battlefield.
At this moment, the soldiers of the garrison who use Gatling machine guns are really addicted, the sudden burst of hundreds of bullets per minute is much cooler than a single rifle, and dozens of enemies can be swept down with a sudden attack, is there a more enjoyable battle than this?
The Nanyang Army here is happy, but the Anglo-French army is suffering there.
This Nima can't rush over at all, and he is a live target for people, just to go up and die!
"It must be withdrawn, and if 100,000 people are not withdrawn, they will all be put in!" Raymond shouted distressedly.
Klaus was also trembling with anger, and he was about to break through, but he couldn't break through in this short distance of twenty meters.
"As long as you hold on a little longer, as long as you charge again, you will definitely be able to, trust me!"
Believe in Nima!
Raymond was furious, as the commander of the French army, he felt sorry for the French soldiers, and immediately bypassed Klaus's command and directly issued the order to retreat to the French troops.
"Fake, Raymond, you are disobeying orders on the battlefield, this is a crime, I will accuse you!" Klaus roared.
Raymond ignored him and left directly.
"Your Excellency, what can I do about this?" Marin worried.
Unexpectedly, Klaus breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said: "Quick, order our people to withdraw quickly, and if you rush down again, you will really be dead." ”
Ma Lin was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "Your Excellency Commander, didn't you insist on charging?" ”
"Your brain is caught in the door?" Klaus roared, "I am the Supreme Commander, and if I order a retreat, all the previous losses will be on my head." Okay now, Raymond's stupid disobedience and withdrawal of troops, then we have an excuse to say that our losses were caused by Raymond's overstepping order, understand? ”
Marin suddenly realized, but his heart was contemptuous. Nima, it's all this time, you just wanted to find a scapegoat.
The French and British retreated successively, leaving more than 40,000 corpses in the middle of the battlefield, of which the Nanyang Army only lost less than 5,000 people, and the rest were the corpses of the British and French troops, most of whom were killed by Gatling machine guns, which shows its terrifying lethality.
"It's not that easy to run. Now that you're here, let's stay all! Zhang Xiaoliu, who was watching the battle, snorted coldly when he saw the British and French troops retreating.
"All the troops are attacking!"
The order was issued, and an army of 70,000 or 80,000 poured out of the Jinshanwei fortress again, and the troops were divided into three routes and began to counterattack.
Klaus, Marin, and Raymond, who were on the way to retreat, were frightened when they saw such a large number of Nanyang troops rushing out.
This Nima failed to break through the defense line of the 30,000 Nanyang Army with 100,000 troops, and now the Nanyang Army has poured out 70,000 or 80,000 people all at once, how can it be stopped?
This Nima is a pit!
Raymond glared at Klaus fiercely and said, "Damn, the intelligence clearly said that there were only 30,000 defenders in Jinshanwei Fortress, but now there are suddenly more than 100,000 people, we were fooled, we were fooled from the beginning." ”
Klaus and Marin were embarrassed. This Nima is about our birds, and we are also victims, okay.
It's just that the intelligence is, after all, provided by the British Intelligence Service, and if something goes wrong, the British side will naturally not be able to get involved.
"The Indian Corps is broken!"
Klaus wanted to also pull Raymond's French North African Corps, but seeing Raymond's angry expression of wanting to kill, Klaus held back and temporarily changed his words.
"Why is it that our Indian Corps is broken again?"
Arjun, the rag-faced Indian corps commander, suddenly complained.
"Your Indian Legion is the proudest warrior of my British Empire, except for you, no one can stop the hateful Eastern Black Dragon, and the glory of the British Empire depends on you." Klaus persuaded with great reverence. The face is not red and the breath is not panting, and the thick black science is carried forward to the extreme.
"Please rest assured, Your Excellency the Commander, our Indian Corps will definitely complete the task of breaking the post, and the queen will be immortal!" The rag-faced Arjun suddenly turned into a sunflower and took over the task.
Watching the rag face leave happily, Marin shook his head helplessly, these Indian Ah San really wanted to save face.
In the last Battle of Songhu, there were 200,000 British and French troops, and the most dead were Indian soldiers. This was followed by the colonial armies of the British colonies, and the losses of the British native soldiers were smaller.
This time, the British again sent 100,000 troops, and there were not many local soldiers. Less than 20,000, the colonies still accounted for the main force, of which the Indian soldiers accounted for 40,000, and 20,000 had been lost in the previous battles. Now there are less than 20,000 people left, and they still can't escape the cannon fodder life.
After less than 20,000 Indian Corps broke the formation, what was waiting for them was the main force of Zhang Xiaoliu's First Front Army. There are more than 110,000 troops.
Even if the First Front did not use Gatling guns, five times the strength of the troops alone would be enough to crush the Indian corps.
However, Zhang Xiaoliu was deeply taught by Li Weiguo, and the way to fight the war has always been to fight the lion and the rabbit with all his strength, and he did not hesitate to send the garrison of the Shanghai Town Guard Mansion out, and directly used the powerful Gatling machine gun to break through the Indian Asan.
Click......
The Gatling machine gun spewed out tongues of fire, hitting the Indian regiment with heavy casualties.
Arjun suddenly had a thrill, and finally understood that this time it was very dangerous, and it was not good that the whole army would be wiped out.
A scream came, Arjun saw that the guards around him were hit by the bullets of the Gatling machine gun, their heads bloomed instantly, their arms and legs were broken, and if they were hit in the torso of the body, they would be killed instantly, and there was no possibility of survival, because the bullets would shatter the internal organs in that instant.
It's terrifying!
Arjun almost subconsciously weakened his legs and lay on the ground, but a volley of bullets fired at him missed, and he survived.
"Get down and shoot! Get down and shoot! ”
Arjun rushed to the hospital in a hurry, but he was blinded by mistake, and shooting on his stomach was the best way to defend against Gatling machine gun fire.
However, this can only temporarily delay the annihilation of the Indian legions, and it is useless.
The artillery units of the 1st Front quickly followed, with 75, 125 and 155 guns quickly firing, with 155-mm heavy howitzers designed to sling the enemy who lacked fortifications in the field.
Boom!
The cannonballs fell from the sky and exploded violently, and in an instant, the earthquake trembled, the dust flew, and the blast wave of the explosion spread in all directions, instantly lifting the Indian soldiers lying on the ground away.
Such a fierce shelling suddenly stunned the Indian soldiers, and they ran away, which only aggravated the casualties.
"Don't run around, get down!"
Arjun shouted, but to no avail, his voice quickly drowned out by the sound of artillery and explosions.
After five rounds of rapid fire, the Indian positions were strewn with corpses, broken arms were everywhere, and almost all those who survived were buried under the soil.
Burst!
Arjun crawled out of the mud and sand and spat out a mouthful of mud and sand.
There are more than 10,000 soldiers, less than 20,000 Indian soldiers, and there are probably one or two thousand people left at the moment, most of whom crawled out of the dirt, which shows the huge power of this round of shelling, no different from a sandstorm.
"It's good to be alive!"
Arjun breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to rejoice that he was still alive, but found that a large number of Nanyang troops appeared in the south, and they were coming from all directions.
"There are only one or two thousand people left, how can we fight? Surrender! ”
Arjun was very honorable and directly chose to surrender to the Nanyang Army.
Zhang Xiaoliu didn't want to accept Arjun's surrender, but he wanted to pursue Klaus and other main forces of the Anglo-French alliance as soon as possible.
In fact, Zhang Xiaoliu made money, because Arjun gave Zhang Xiaoliu a surprise, he explained all the remaining troops of the British and French forces and the hoarding of weapons and ammunition depots, and waited for leniency.
The 1st Front continued to pursue the victory, regaining its catch up with the retreating Anglo-French forces just before sunset.
"What the hell is this Nima!"
Crowston complained that in his opinion, even if Arjun's Indian corps was weak, it would at least be able to block the Nanyang Army for a long time, but now that his ass is not hot, the Nanyang Army has caught up
Klaus and Raymond looked at each other, as if making eye contact with who would break off next.
No one is stupid, and if they want to stay and break the queen, there is no door.
In the end, Klaus and Raymond agreed to stick to the rescue together, so that the 80,000 British and French troops near the town of White Lotus rushed to reinforce it.
At this time, Klaus and Raymond had less than 50,000 troops in their hands, so they stuck to the line of Tang Village and Wanjia Village and began to build fortifications.
Due to the fact that the 129th Division of Chuansha Town had built a lot of defensive positions, Lei Meng and other experts of the British and French armies learned and sold them after research, and also built trench fortifications in a similar way.
Zhang Xiaoliu learned that Claus was not running away, and immediately mobilized a large army to surround Tang Village and Wanjia Village.
However, Zhang Xiaoliu did not attack at the first time, but quickly built a defensive line around it, set up a Gatling machine gun, and put on a defensive posture.
This is a typical precursor to encirclement and reinforcements, and Klaus and Raymond are also experts, and they quickly discovered Zhang Xiaoliu's attempt, so they took the initiative to attack.
Unfortunately, in front of the Gatling machine guns, the Anglo-French offensive was quickly repulsed. Klaus used all his artillery to try to destroy the Gatling machine gun position of the Nanyang Army with artillery fire, but unfortunately it was not only they who had artillery, Zhang Xiaoliu deployed more and more powerful artillery to counterattack, suppressing the British and French artillery in Tang Village and Wanjia Village, making it impossible to attack the Gatling machine gun position.
"This sucks!"
Raymond smiled bitterly, they were clever but were mistaken by cleverness, they were originally stubborn and waiting for help, but unexpectedly, the opponent implemented the tactics of encirclement and reinforcement.
"It depends on whether the Guba side can realize this, not be ambushed by the enemy, and arrive here on time to make peace with us."
Three days later, in Lijia Town, Zhang Xiaoliu led his army to ambush the British and French troops who came to reinforce them, and won a great victory, completely annihilating the supporting army.
However, soon Zhang Xiaoliu found that there were only 20,000 British troops in this support army, but there was no French army, and after interrogation, he learned that after Guba learned that Klaus and other 100,000 British and French troops were defeated in Jinshanwei Fortress and surrounded in Tangcun and Wanjia Village, not only did he not send reinforcements, but immediately led 60,000 French troops and 20,000 British troops to retreat, and retreated directly to Sanjia Port, preparing to retreat to the sea.
Guba is very cunning, he has already realized that this is a trap, a big hole that Li Weiguo deliberately dug for the British and French forces, so he will retreat immediately, never dragging mud and water, and even at the expense of Raymond and his French soldiers.
However, the 20,000 British troops did not listen to Guba's orders, so they broke away from Guba's jurisdiction and came to the rescue alone, but were ambushed by Zhang Xiaoliu and annihilated.
Zhang Xiaoliu calculated the time, the lone 60,000 French troops were almost at Sanjia Port at this moment, there was a British and French fleet there, and there was no chance to kill them, so Zhang Xiaoliu immediately returned to the army and began to launch a general attack on the 50,000 British and French troops in Tangcun and Wanjia Village.
"Lonely, you bastard!"
When Klaus learned the news that Lone had run away, he was so angry that he vomited blood.
Only Raymond smiled bitterly, both angry and glad, angry because Guba couldn't come to save him, glad that Guba knew how to make trade-offs, and it was better to bring 60,000 French troops back home than 100,000 French soldiers dying here. (To be continued.) )
