75 guns may be used as a single artillery, but heavy guns of more than 100 mm, the killing range of each shell, is more than a few dozen square meters, 60 guns, mixed with 108 and 155, the reasonable distribution of coverage attacks, the lethality is the largest, the attack in pieces, is always much more powerful than sporadic firepower, especially for the object of no house.

Because the perfect shooting was measured, the test gun without thinking about it was directly hit, 60 shells, at least covering more than 2,000 square meters, high-explosive shells + flowering shells, the range of coverage can be maximized, and there are almost no dead ends. At this time, the cavalry of the Russian army was just in a state of charge, relatively far away from the true meaning of the northwest, and the layout was relatively dense, within the range of 2,000 square meters, at least about 300 cavalry.

Artillery. This shows the great power of the king of the army, when the shells began to explode in the cavalry group after more than a minute, after crossing the range of 9 kilometers, a group of ghosts cried wolf. The neat cavalry camp was directly cut off a huge piece, and the central one was directly killed, and even those who escaped the catastrophe would be trampled to death by the galloping horses behind. Very few survived, the horses and panicked people who were disturbed by the shelling were scattered, and they couldn't care about any camp.

But then the nightmare continued. 3 consecutive shots, this is the focus of Baotou training, even if it is a 155 gun, it can be fired within a minute, the 108 gun is even faster, keeping it relatively neat, 108 is a little slower, relying on the rhythm of 155. After 3 rounds, it was only a minute, and the entire shock camp was already shattered. The number of direct casualties reached a staggering 700 or more, and the two regiments of 3,000 men were basically half-crippled.

Alkasha gritted his teeth and looked at the Qiē in front of him, the strength of the Baotou heavy artillery, he had already prepared. But it is absolutely unimaginable to be so powerful. Accurate and long-range. The rate of fire was fast and well-trained, and he even felt that he was facing not the army of the weak country, China, but the traditional power of Europe, and even the feeling of German artillery.

"Order, artillery deployed, retaliatory artillery bombardment of Chinese forward positions!" Alkasha gritted his teeth and said loudly.

The guards ran down quickly, issued an order to the artillery position, in Kyakhta, the artillery began to unfold, after the first line found this qiē, after receiving the notice, they immediately hid in the anti-artillery hole, when the first row of shells fell in the least field of vision, I could not see a few Chinese soldiers, sometimes I was really afraid of comparing goods, I watched the performance of the Chinese artillery, and then looked at the Russian one, it looked very lively, more like a four-sided attack, did not show the power of the salvo, the first shot was fine, the second shot, it is scattered a lot, the landing point and explosion are not neat, and in terms of power, it is much lower than the salvo.

"Report, division commander, the heavy artillery of the Chinese army has turned!"

When Alkasha ordered the artillery to cover, he made people focus on the Chinese heavy artillery, which can hit 9 kilometers, does not mean that it can't hit farther, and sure enough, after their artillery fire, the muzzle of the Chinese heavy artillery began to turn, and a layer of doubt flashed in his heart, but he didn't follow the order, which was a little suspicious,

Alkasha regretted it very much, why did he not give the order to let the artillery evade, after the muzzle turned, the cannon directly stared at the artillery position of Kyakhta, when another round of salvo fire, fell on the artillery position of Kyakhta, the fun was great, this time the salvo was more accurate, not as big as the infantry, but the use of pure steel warheads, specifically for the artillery, only 500 square coverage area, more than six times smaller than the attack cavalry, shrouded 5 120 and 12 75 guns, 1 120 guns and 7 75 guns were scrapped, and more than 100 artillery casualties were also inflicted.

At this moment, Alkasha will no longer doubt that the opponent's artillery has a terrible range, depending on the situation, 12 kilometers is not the limit, so far, and it is so accurate, on the one hand, the artillery is excellent, on the other hand, it is not the artillery is excellent, and no longer dare to let the artillery stay in place, it is a live target.

120 artillery, the performance is not very good, but it is lighter than the 155 gun, after unfolding, it is easier to recover, a large number of horses, after 10 minutes, the artillery fire of the Northwest Army has lasted 12 rounds, the Russian artillery fire finally began to transfer, but unfortunately the 120 artillery has been killed as many as 16, as for the weaker 75 guns, it is almost 80 destroyed, this is after the Russian army arrived in Kyakhta, the number of artillery losses is the largest, and the casualties are almost 700 people.

Now, it's Alkasha's turn to be in a dilemma, their task is to take down the trading city, and it will definitely not work to attack the trading city, not to mention the trading city, there are pits everywhere, God knows that there will be a firepower point or something like that, let's just say that those positions built by the Northwest Army have heavy artillery as the backing, basically, before solving the problem of heavy artillery, the attack is absolutely dead.

There is no way, Alkasha can only hand over the problem, Samsolov is not in Chita, is leading 6 divisions of the Russian army, from Chita, towards Kyakhta, after receiving the telegram, it is almost unbelievable, China actually has 155 heavy artillery, it is still world-class, it can hit targets 12 kilometers away, and it is particularly accurate, are you kidding, what is China like, as Samsolov, who has participated in the war against China, it is almost clear, and the powers also have a tacit understanding, China is a place to obtain wealth, not a place to be fostered, light weapons can be sold openly, as long as the latest weapons are not designed, heavy weapons stop at 75 guns, even if it is an automatic weapon Makqin, the quantity will be controlled, the price of 500 US dollars a piece is definitely not a large number of equipment that the Chinese army can equip in large quantities.

Now, an army of only about 20,000 people, not to mention light weapons and Maxim, just say 48 108 makes him puzzled, how to transport it to China, is it really as I thought before, Germany is very supportive of China, the northwest is a secret force cultivated by Germany, but 155 is nothing, even in the German army, 155 can also be regarded as strategic heavy artillery, this thing, second only to the strongest firepower of the army above 180, and some train guns, put on the sea, maybe just a small artillery, But on the road, it's definitely a big killer.

I don't understand, but Samsolov also knows that if he forcibly lets Alkasha attack a position backed by heavy firepower at this time, it will definitely be suicide, and let the divisions under him speed up, and at the same time, the heavy artillery division from the center will also speed up.

The heavy artillery division with 108 120 guns and 36 155 guns and 17 180 guns is definitely a strategic force, if it were not for the military expenses of Britain, France and Japan, it would be impossible to leave Petrograd, this time, Samsolov was really a little lucky, and the heavy artillery division was transferred, otherwise, it was just the artillery fire of a division, he could only fill it with human lives, once the losses reached a certain level, he might have to follow in the footsteps of Valenkin and Andrei.

Samsolov's level, if it really falls to Valentin's fate, it will really be over, the first time he commanded a large army to fight, so that Samsolov was a little uncomfortable, and he ran into such a hard bone in Baotou, slightly at a loss, he could only order the follow-up troops, quickly go to Kyakhta, obviously, this group of troops should be the so-called elite troops in the northwest, such troops, there are not many in the West, let alone poor and backward China, as long as these troops are piled up, think about it, The next step is a lot smoother.

After receiving Samsolov's order, Arkasha was a little crying and laughing, this general actually let him play freely, cautious but to maintain enough oppression, how to press, compared to artillery fire, compared to personnel, the opponent still defended their offense is a loss.

Fortunately, Samsolov did not accuse him, and told him that reinforcements were on the way, and that two divisions might arrive in three or five days, so that he should not worry too much.

Time passed day by day, and the Kyakhta side, because of the heavy artillery suppression on the Baotou side, has not dared to make more moves, and occasionally will take advantage of the night, or some special times, to organize some small groups of attacks, which can not shake the defense line of the Northwest Army at all, and the perfect arrangement, even if it is just a trench, in the absence of sufficient artillery coverage, it is impossible to capture, but only to increase casualties.

Cai Yi did not continue to attack Kyakhta, not that it could not be captured, with the help of heavy artillery, more than 20,000 people in the first division were enough to capture Kyakhta, but after the capture, the loss was on the one hand, on the other hand, within 100 kilometers from Kyakhta, there were two Russian divisions coming quickly, as for 250 kilometers, there were 8 Russian divisions, and the reinforcements belonging to the northwest were only two divisions belonging to the First Army for the time being.

The two sides began to mobilize troops across the line between Kyakhta and the city of Trading, and if there were planes in the sky to take aerial photographs, they would definitely see two large armies marching rapidly from the north and south directions towards Kyakhta or the city of Trading.
