Chapter 874: Scuffle
In Ju Yilu's opinion, he led a force of 20,000 people, and it should be more than enough to deal with the enemy army on the east side, so I don't believe you, is there a strong army in China that can be compared to the Lu army? And the opponent's strength should not be too strong!
Unexpectedly, as soon as he got started, Juyilu Fang realized that he was very wrong, and the opponent in front of him was so strong that he was not weaker than the Lu army! This artillery firepower is extremely fast, not only fast, but also very accurate, if you lead a reorganized French army division, it is possible to suppress the other party, now you have France, Britain, West and Japan, the four-nation coalition army, fortunately, there is no small Japan, just the three-nation coalition army, even so, the three-nation coalition army in terms of coordination, too much difference, absolutely can not be compared with the French army or the Lu army, don't say that each has its own heart, just the language barrier, is a trouble!
Not to mention the sharpness of the opponent's artillery, in front of the position, there was even a heavy machine gun, Green artillery, under the impetus of the heavy machine gunner, slowly approaching forward alternately, the powerful heavy machine gun firepower is simply what the coalition forces can match, the crazy firepower of twenty Green guns can easily suppress the two infantry battalions of the coalition army!
Not only is the firepower large, but also the firing range is also long, as long as the heavy machine gun with an effective range of more than 800 meters stands at a distance of five or six hundred meters, it can easily inflict huge casualties on the officers and men of the coalition forces, on the other hand, the coalition forces only have a dry stare, and the effective range of their rifles is only 400 meters, which is too far behind!
As soon as Guyru's coalition army came up, he suffered a big loss, but he didn't expect that the opponent would be so powerful!
Guy hurriedly mobilized heavy troops to redeploy the defense, trying to hold his position, but the heavy machine gun company of the second division was too powerful, and the four heavy machine gun companies were constantly advancing forward, and they were unstoppable!
If it is a Maxim heavy machine gun, it is definitely not so convenient, the Maxim heavy machine gun is cumbersome, and I don't want the Green gun to be placed on the car like this, and a person can't shoot on the move, so the Maxim heavy machine gun is a well-deserved king of positional defense, although the performance of the Gatling heavy machine gun is not as good as the later Maxim, but because it is placed on the car, there can be soldiers to push forward, but it is much more convenient than the Maxim heavy machine gun!
Dozens of Green guns were concentrated on the battlefield, constantly advancing, and the firepower was so fierce that even an infantry regiment could not withstand the fierce attack of four heavy machine gun companies!
The coalition forces retreated one after another under the blow of the heavy machine guns, and the frontal position in the center was hit by the heavy machine gun fire to create an obvious vacuum!
"General Guyru, it's terrible to go on like this, the opponent's heavy machine gun is too powerful, attacking with all our might, we can't stop the opponent's advance speed at all!"
The military staff officer shouted. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Without the report of the military staff, Guy Lu had already seen it, now Guy was sweating profusely, and he was already anxious like an ant on a hot pot, the opponent's offensive was too fierce, and if he continued to fight like this, the position would definitely collapse!
"Order the artillery regiment to aim at the opponent's heavy machine gun team, hit hard, and blow them all up for me!"
There is no good way for Guyiru to fight hard, use artillery fire, and hit the opponent's heavy machine gun fire with all his might! It's just that if the enemy is defending our attack, and the heavy machine gun fire point is stationary, the effect of the artillery strike is still relatively obvious, but now the heavy machine gun fire is all in motion, and the bombardment of artillery shells alone does not have much effect, and the artillery regiment of the second division of the Lu Army is not dry, since your artillery hits my heavy machine gun fire belt, then my artillery fire will directly bombard your position!
The artillery regiment of the 2nd Division was eager to tilt all the shells on the positions of the coalition forces, and the powerful offensive firepower made the positions of the coalition forces crumbling!
Guy was secretly frightened, knowing that if he responded again, he would suffer a big loss!
"Staff officer, have the people sent to the frontal position returned? What about General Houghton's side? ”
Guy asked.
"General, now that we are fully engaged in dealing with the enemy forces on the eastern flank, the frontal position is now under the full attack of the 1st Division, and the two sides have fallen into a bitter battle, and we cannot get effective support at all......
Guyiru's head buzzed, the front position fell into a bitter battle, the eastern position also fell into a bitter battle, and the western position now did not move at all, this time it was miserable, and I don't know when the main force of General Bazin will be able to rush up!
Bazin?
Now Bazin has also fallen into the entanglement of the cavalry, the two cavalry regiments face the two elite French infantry divisions, whether it is Zhang Hexiang or Zhang Botao, neither of them will be cut down by the opponent, but if it is just entanglement and curbing the pace of the other party's advance, the two cavalry regiments still have no problem!
The enemy enters and disturbs me, the enemy attacks and I retreat, and the enemy stops and I stop, anyway, I won't let you quickly break through to the area of Xueguantun!
Bazin was so angry that he was thundering now, he originally thought that an infantry brigade would be strong enough to take down one of the opponent's divisions, there was no problem, he didn't think that the other party actually came to reinforcements, how did he come so quickly, you must know that from Weihai to Cangzhou, it will be at least more than a thousand miles away, and it will not be possible to reach it without twenty days, but the other party has arrived in just ten days, and it is unrealistic to break through each one!
Bazin could only bring reinforcements to reinforce quickly, but he didn't think that he had just walked out of more than 20 miles, and he was attacked by cavalry, one after another, and each time it was a small group of cavalry, constantly harassing! Now three hours have passed, and the two French brigades have marched forward less than six or seven miles! When will this reach the battlefield?
Bazin's heart is on fire, and he can only order all his troops to rush forward to the side, and protect the main force to concentrate on advancing forward with you!
The two sides fought until dawn the next day, when Bazin's army arrived, but it was too late! Under the blow of the 2nd Division, Guyru had to abandon his position and retreat to the rear, the original situation of three arrows had been broken, and the 2nd Division turned its guns and launched an attack on Houghton in the middle!
Horton felt the hardship of dealing with just one of the first divisions, and now that the second division has also launched an attack, where can Horton withstand it? Seeing that his position was being encroached upon step by step by the Lu army, there was no room to fight back!
