Chapter 120: The Battle of Nuremberg (2)
The trebuchet, an ancient military machine, is very famous in history, and the narrator is unexpectedly a little lazy, so we won't continue to explain it here, as long as you have played the Age of Empires and Total War: the Middle Ages, you will understand how powerful and pit this thing is.

That's right, the hit rate of trebuchets is very speechless, and even the Son of Heaven trebuchet, which is controlled by magic, has not improved much in this area.
The smell of the soldiers' excrement, which had barely been collected these days, mixed with the garbage from repairing the castle, was being heated by fire, and the smell was already making the Bretannian soldiers dizzy.
Not to mention the Northern Combined Soldiers who were directly hit, the taste and sourness, coupled with the gravity damage destined to fall from a high altitude, this wave of attacks was successfully defeated.
“…… What good use can you bunch of rubbish do if you are knocked down by a round of trebuchets? ”
"I'm really sorry, General Alexander, we will definitely punish the leading officers severely!"
A few unlucky generals kept apologizing to Alexander, and finally got forgiveness, but the frontal attack was relinquished to the others, and they had to take the rest of the soldiers to support the attack in two other directions.
"Hey, it's all uneasy waste." Alexander watched as they left with a complicated expression, and could faintly hear someone laughing at these unfortunate people.
It has to be said that as a combined army, there are too many forces and small groups in the army, except for Alexander, who can suppress them with his descendants, the entire army is in a state of division.
After all, the sense of responsibility for the modern army, the honor of the state and the nation has only just been established, and people generally obey their own leaders or leaders.
If they want to reap enough benefits from this battle with the Confederates, it is not necessary to think that it is their first priority, although Alexander is eager to suck this waste to death.
Didn't you see how the new Trisham and Fizen states were wiped out in front of you? Until now, you have given me the yang and the yin, are you killing yourself?
However, Alexander could not completely ignore these bastards, this time the northern city-states nominally accounted for 60% of the strength composition of the Nuremberg battle, but in fact only one-third reached the battlefield, and the rest of the troops were all provided by the allies.
In this way, Alexander's voice was greatly weakened, and in order to ensure his authority and independence, he had to choose the approach of a certain transport captain: let the allies and miscellaneous armies go up first to consume the energy and ammunition of the Britannes.
It seemed to work well just now, but the scene just now told Alexander that it was impossible to win with this waste alone.
"How's the right flank going?"
"The last communication reported that the enemy's outpost positions had been broken through, but were hit by air strikes, and the help of the air cavalry was requested."
"Then hurry up and let those big young masters move, the key today may be on the right wing."
"Understood! Checkmate! ”
Seeing the herald leave, the artilleryman finally began to speak, and this time, whether it was the Bretanians on the heights or the northerners below, they took out all the shells and stuffed them into the barrels, vowing to smash the opposite side to pieces!
The results of the artillery attack of Army Group Fenrir were very impressive.
With Colonel Jonathan's efforts, hundreds of guns of various calibers opened fire on the enemy, and the sloping ramps and the starting positions of the Yankees dragged their shells into the air, lifting dirt, dust, and human fragments into the sky.
A barrage of high-explosive blows and occasional chain bullets tore apart the infantry ranks in three directions, especially the idiots on the left flank, the 88th Volunteer Rifle Regiment from Edward, who actually attacked in a traditional gun formation.
Under the warm greeting of the artillery, the rifle regiment was broken up in five minutes, seventy percent of the soldiers were killed or wounded, and only one lucky second lieutenant survived, becoming the first unit to be eliminated in this campaign, and the time taken was also the shortest.
Not to be outdone, the Combine Army, in particular, had their rifles on the heads of the artillerymen, who burst out with astonishing enthusiasm and momentum, running back and forth between artillery and ammunition trucks shirtless, even in unfavorable terrain, and still scored a minute and a half rounds.
For these people's good results, then Lorraine will have to scold her mother.
"Air Force! Where are all our Air Force! If we don't bomb the local artillery, our people will be blown up! ”
"The Air Force is departing, General Lorraine, please calm down!"
It is indeed difficult to calm down, now the army in Nuremberg is not as large as the enemy, and the number of artillery is only superior in caliber, and the fate of being attacked by the enemy's set artillery can be seen by looking at the first and second positions.
"It's really not good, I'll go up and give them a shot of the multi-headed dragon first!" Lorraine, who had made up his mind, sat down angrily, and the artillery duel lasted until two o'clock in the afternoon, and the air forces of both sides entered the field and began to lick the ground wildly, anti-aircraft fire flew around, and there was no time for them to play with artillery.
Gyrocopter and fixed-wing aircraft are still at a disadvantage in the face of traditional air cavalry, and the power and speed have not reached a balance, and it is difficult to beat the flying dragoons in the north by relying on current technology and material technology.
However, in terms of adding land, please think about the powerful ground attack aircraft in a certain war thunder, Lorraine has equipped his air force with various high-attack equipment, such as missile nests, explosive javelins, and alchemy fuel barrels, which are not too sharp.
"Hmph, just a little northerner, what is that against my air force...... Just by virtue of what kind of earth-licking ability their air cavalry is weak......"
"General, urgent intelligence! Left-wing crisis! ”
"What did you say!?"
When you are proud, someone will always slap you in the face, and this is what Lorraine is talking about!
Throughout the Battle of Nuremberg, on the left flank of Brittany, which was on the defensive, there was only one regiment of infantry deployed, and given the steep slope and the weak magical power of the New World, no one could theoretically break through from this side.
But the first opponent is Alexander, who has the rarest mage group in the entire New World, although the level and magic power are not very high, but it is indeed a real mage group.
More than a hundred low-level mages, led by the team leader, mixed in with the sneak attack troops to prepare for a big new siege, and they were attacked by the air force before thinking that they had been discovered and did not start casting spells.
When the air battle begins, and there is only one regiment on the opposite side, no one can hinder them, and it is really easy to change the terrain with joint spells.
The joint spell casting of the mage group is such a rogue thing, gathering the magic power of dozens or even hundreds of people to change the environment in reality, this is the war spell that the mage group of the Old Continent must practice!
"It's a big problem...... The terrain on the left flank turned into a smooth road, and the enemy had a high probability of making a charge...... The Guards are assembled! All follow me to the left! ”
"But general, the commander ......"
"Let the staff ...... Forget it, get Brigadier General Ye back, he will take command! ”
“…… Yes" (To be continued.) )
