The positions of the two sides were not far apart, and under the cover of artillery fire, the Zulu army advanced rapidly. Fastest updates

800 meters, 600 meters, 500 meters, 300 meters

The Zulus pushed forward step by step, not at all expecting to fall into a trap.

Luke at the front of the position can still calm down, this is two thousand Zulus, if they really let them climb the position, with their savage and brave combat power, it will make the entire front of the position to the bottom of the trouble, these Zulu force is not a joke, the Boers as early as twenty years ago, have already learned the power of the Zulus, especially in the mountains and plateaus, the Zulu people are born warriors, warriors who dare to fight with lions

Finally, the Zulu infantry stepped into a distance of more than two hundred meters, and the Zulu infantry, which was originally only slowly advancing forward, suddenly accelerated the pace of advancement, after all, it was only more than two hundred meters, and the distance of more than two hundred meters was only a matter of one or two minutes for the Zulu soldiers

However, at this time, the Zulu soldiers also completely stepped into the range of heavy machine gun fire, and even the Burning Plains rifles in the hands of the German-Austrian Federation Army could inflict some damage on the Zulu infantry

bang

The pistol in Luke's hand replaced the military order, and a crisp gunfire announced the arrival of the ferocious fire of the German-Austrian federal army

A heavy machine gun raised the muzzle, the heavy machine gunner quickly turned the handle of the heavy machine gun, the chain of the heavy machine gun bullet has been completely integrated into the magazine, dozens of heavy machine guns burst out of the dazzling tongue of fire, constantly spitting bullets to the outside, and the speed of bullet shooting is still increasing

Eighty rounds a minute, 100 rounds a minute, 150 rounds a minute, 200 rounds a minute

In less than a minute, the speed of the heavy machine gun has increased to more than 200 rounds a minute, the heavy machine gun bullets erupted, the bullets were like a torrential rain, and the heavy machine gun battalion began to launch a ferocious attack on the Zulu infantry, just like the ancient flood beasts, began to harvest the lives of the Zulu infantry

The Zulu infantry who were advancing did not react at all, the rain of bullets came to their faces, and the soldiers in front did not even have time to lie down or even dodge, most of the infantry still maintained a charging posture, and they were already being shot through the chest by the heavy machine gun bullets like lightning, and the heavy machine guns brought by the rifling rotated at high speed, and the infantry's body was straight out of a fist-sized hole, and it was difficult to survive

The only ones who can survive can be those who are lucky enough to be hit in the arm or leg, and they will be crippled for life, that's for sure, but even this is better than dead, at least they can live.

Bundles of blood splashed into the air with the heavy machine gun into the body, the Zulu infantry continued to let out a terrible scream, in an instant, there were hundreds of soldiers were taken away, and the slow response infantry behind also could not escape the bad luck of death, and when the fierce infantry lay on the ground, there were already hundreds of Zulu infantry casualties, the front of the position, blood stained fertile soil, extremely dazzling

The most unlucky is the infantry leader Dani, who thought he was brave and even rushed to the front of the charging team, wanting to win the first battle feat, but the skull was directly opened by a heavy machine gun bullet, and his head was directly shattered, and he couldn't die

Sudden protrusion

The bullets of the heavy machine gun are still spitting out lifelessly, but now the morale of the Zulu forward team has been hit to the extreme, even the intensive shelling just now did not kill so many people, in less than three minutes, the Zulu infantry paid at least four or five hundred casualties, one by one the infantry lay on the battlefield, did not dare to move at all, the firepower was too fierce

However, is it safe and sound without moving the bulletsThe answer is of course wrong, these Zulu infantry have rushed into a distance of less than three hundred meters from the heavy machine gun position, and those who rushed to the front have even entered within two hundred meters, such a close distance, the lethality of the heavy machine gun is too terrifying, terrifying to the extreme, even if they lie on the ground, they will be hit by stray bullets, either dead or wounded

Ahhh

On the position of the Zulu army, Nick and Amjie looked at it with tears in their eyes, it was too tragic In the blink of an eye, hundreds of soldiers had fallen in a pool of blood, and a monster suddenly appeared on the front position of the other party, constantly spitting out tongues of fire What kind of weapon is this, what kind of monster is this This is a demon from hell The two positions are close to a thousand meters apart, and the opponent's heavy machine gun bullets can even hit their own positions

The remaining more than 1,000 soldiers who launched their own charge have no way to retreat, run back, and if they can't run a few steps, they will be devoured by the fire-spitting monster and don't run back, and the chance of survival is not much, the power of the other party is too great

However, they are really not afraid of things, the Zulu infantry in the rear has been broken by the fire-breathing beasts in front of them, and they no longer dare to stay on the battlefield, they get up from the ground, turn around and flee towards their own positions, so where can they run Joke, no matter how fast the speed of people is, they can still match the speed of heavy machine gun bullets Dozens of heavy machine guns have blocked all the frontal positions, and the space with a width of hundreds of meters is full of deadly bullets

Fortunately, the lethality of heavy machine guns on the ground is limited, although they can kill people, but the probability of hitting the target is much smaller, as the commander of the infantry regiment, Luke knows how much these heavy machine guns consume bullets, just in the past ten minutes, dozens of heavy machine guns are firing at a rate of 150 rounds per minute, and the bullets fired are close to 100,000 rounds

This is an extremely horrific number, and a hundred boxes of heavy machine gun ammunition have been squandered in this way

At this rate, if it is fired for a day and a night, it will consume at least thousands of boxes of heavy machine gun ammunition, and in a month, it will be 100,000 boxes

Luke soon gave the order, the heavy machine gun position stopped shooting, and on the battlefield, the Zulu infantry vanguard team saw that the shooting stopped and rushed to the back, and even threw away the musket in their hands, for fear of running one step slower than others, it was too scary, this was the most terrifying scene the Zulu people had ever seen in their lives, in their cognition, even the mighty British Empire would not be so strong

From the launch of the assault to the end of the attack, it was only half an hour, but it was this half an hour that thousands of Zulu people lost their lives, which was a slaughter that had never been done before

To be continued.
