At 5 p.m. on the 20th, Lieutenant General Su Linxu rushed in front of the Detroit Fortress.

In order to successfully conquer the fortress without too many sacrifices, Su Linxu specially brought 2 airships, each of which was equipped with 200 incendiary bombs, which was a sharp weapon for conquering the fortress.

The Detroit Fortress is located on the north bank of the Detroit River, there are several hills, and the fortress is built in a few hills, opposite the Detroit Fortress of Lu South of the Detroit River, the two fortresses are only about 20 kilometers apart, and both fortresses can bombard each other's cities, so that both countries maintain restraint.

There are 6 210mm fortress guns and 18 155mm shore defense guns installed on the fortress in the direction of Canada, which can prevent the Lu army from crossing the Detroit River, and can also prevent the warships in Lake Erie from approaching the fortress, and can also bombard all the buildings in Detroit City.

Although Ma Longtan made a feint to attack the Canadian Detroit Fortress, he did not dare to attack, otherwise the Canadian officers and soldiers stationed in the Detroit Fortress could shell Detroit and make the city of Detroit a ruin.

Seeing that several armies elsewhere were progressing smoothly, Ma Longtan could only be anxious.

Su Linxu's words made Ma Longtan feel that the burden on his shoulders was much lighter, and it was his urgent need.

Ma Longtan asked, "General Su, what should we do here?" When will the general offensive be launched? ”

Su Linxu said with a smile: "Don't worry, calm down, I am ready to launch a surprise attack before dawn tomorrow morning and take the Detroit fortress in one fell swoop, otherwise our losses will be extremely huge, and the Canadians must not be given a chance to fire." ”

Ma Longtan was secretly refreshed in his heart, this is the best.

Seeing that Ma Longtan didn't speak, Su Linxu continued: "Except for the personnel on duty, all start to rest, tomorrow will be a very hard day, you must be mentally prepared." ”

"Yes, Chief of Staff!"

Ma Longtan did not want to be careless in Jingzhou, in addition to arranging a battalion of Japanese mercenaries on duty, he also arranged a battalion of garrisons to be on guard, respectively arranged double or multiple posts, and arranged a large number of secret posts, and the forward guard soldiers were distributed 15 kilometers outside the barracks.

Sail carefully for 10,000 years, this is Ma Longtan's guiding ideology for doing things, requiring him to be vigilant at all times.

Su Linxu is very satisfied with Ma Longtan's arrangement, a soldier must look like a soldier, and he must have a wartime state in wartime, and he can't be too cautious, especially at such a close distance from Canada.

At half past four o'clock in the morning of the 21st, it was still very dark, and at this time the officers and men of the Lu State Barracks had already gotten up, and in order not to attract the attention of the Canadian officers and soldiers on the other side, they did not turn on the lights in the morning, did not light a fire to cook, and all the officers and men ate canned food and dry food.

The two airships were ignited and lifted off from dozens of miles away, and at this time they had stopped at a distance of 4,000 meters above the Canadian fortress, and in the dark night sky, with the help of telescopes, it was difficult for Canadian officers and men to distinguish what the airships looked like.

The officers and men of the Lu State on the airship kept observing the ground with binoculars, and began to bomb after distinguishing the outline of the ground target from the telescope.

Lieutenant General Su Linxu's order was to destroy all the fortress guns in the Canadian Fortress at the first time, so that the Canadian Fortress would lose the ability to bombard Detroit; Then they shelled the Canadian barracks, so that the Canadian officers and soldiers lost the ability to fight back.

This was the first frontal war against Canada after the war, and the personnel on the airship attached great importance to it, hoping to get off to a good start and play the prestige of the airship, without the help of His Majesty the Emperor, the airship could still achieve great achievements.

It was not until 6 o'clock in the morning that the ground could be seen clearly through the telescope, and at this time, it was less than an hour before dawn, and most of the officers and soldiers on duty in the Canadian fort were sleeping in the barracks.

According to the division of labor, the two airships began to bombard the Canadian forts from the east and west directions, first destroying the fortress guns and shore defense guns on the two hills, and then bombing the barracks.

At 6:10, both airships were fully prepared and communicated, and it was decided to start bombing at the same time at 6:15, in order to inflict huge damage on the enemy in the first wave of bombing, the airships chose to use incendiary bombs in the first wave of bombardment to completely destroy the fortress artillery group.

The time soon came, and the two airships began to drop incendiary bombs downward, and the 500-kilogram incendiary bombs roared down from the sky, exploding in the bunker above or around the fortress gun, making a violent explosion sound, and at the same time rising flames dozens of meters high. 【】

The sound of a loud explosion woke up the sleeping Canadian officers and soldiers in the barracks.

"Enemy attack! Take cover! ”

"God forbid!"

"Assemble!"

The Canadian military camp was in chaos.

The huge flames, which illuminated the surrounding environment, provided good illumination for the commander on the airship to continue the bombing.

The rising flames were on the top of the mountain again, and in the dark night, people from more than ten miles away could see the changes here.

At this point, the officers and soldiers of the Canadian military camp knew that the fortress artillery group was attacked by the state of Lu.

The division commander guarding the fortress received an order to hold his position, block the offensive of the Lu army, and buy the necessary time for the federal government to organize and mobilize the militia.

Now the artillery group has been devastated, and without the artillery group, the fortress cannot be defended, and the Lu State attacks by dropping bombs in the air, and the army cannot fight back, it can only be passively beaten, and the fortress will soon be lost.

The commander of the guard division immediately reported what was happening at the fortress to the General Staff and made a request to break through.

Wilfrid Laurel, then Prime Minister of the Canadian Home Rule Government, rejected the request to break out of the siege and demanded that the position be held tightly to buy time for the organization and mobilization of the militia, as well as for the arrival of reinforcements from the overlord.

2 airships were very satisfied with the bombing effect, completely destroying 6 210mm fortress guns and 18 155mm coastal defense guns in the Canadian fort; All the forts, the fortresses, were shrouded in fire; In this kind of fire, the temperature is as high as thousands of degrees, and in the flames of high temperature for a long time, the cannon is not deformed, and its mass, performance, etc. have undergone tremendous changes, and there is no way to continue firing shells.

After bombing the fort battery, according to the original plan, 2 airships began to bombard the barracks, giving the Canadian army the maximum lethality and completely destroying the Canadians' will to resist.

In this bombing, incendiary bombs and grenades were used interchangeably to inflict maximum damage on Canadian soldiers.

First of all, the incendiary bombs caused a fire in the barracks, and then the grenades fell one after another, causing maximum damage and damage to the houses and servicemen in the barracks.

At this time, the barracks was full of fires, up to thousands of degrees of heat, and bursts of viscous combustibles, which killed Canadian soldiers for the first time, the explosion of grenades, the impact of sound waves was the second kill, and finally the collapsed houses, flying shrapnel, sand and gravel caused the third kill.

This barracks shows the apocalyptic horror of the world.

There are soldiers who were shrouded in fire, and they died instantly in the hot flames, and these people are considered happy.

People who are stuck to the sticky stuff are the most painful, whether they roll on the ground or hit it in various other ways, it doesn't help, and it can even cause more people to get the sticky stuff on it, cause more injuries, or cause fires in more places.

They can only wail in pain, moan, cry, and cry for help, and it is a luxury to end their lives at this time.

Others were crushed under collapsed houses.

The destructive power of the grenade should not be underestimated, and many soldiers were directly killed, and their bodies were scattered in various places, and some were injured and mutilated.

Some people were even stunned by the sight in front of them.

"Help!"

"God forbid!"

"I'm going home!"

"Kill me!"

In the barracks filled with all kinds of shouts, everyone is running for their lives, who cares about others?

The bombardment lasted more than 20 minutes, and two Canadian camps were devastated, with heavy casualties and less than one in ten intact survivors, and the unit was no longer operationally capable.

At 6:40, after receiving the report of the airship, Lieutenant General Su Linxu was very satisfied with the bombing effect, and immediately ordered a Japanese mercenary brigade to cross the Detroit River to the Canadian fortress and completely exterminate the Canadian soldiers at the fortress; The rest of the troops went to the city of Windsor, Canada, from where they were to take the train to the town of London, 165 kilometers away; The cavalry battalions of the divisions and brigades rode to the town of London; The troops marched lightly, carrying only the necessary ammunition and one day's dry rations, and all logistics were transported by airships.

At the same time, Su Linxu sent a telegram to Wu Junsheng, asking him to send troops to Woodstock to establish positions, block possible Canadian reinforcements, and guard in the direction of Kitchener and Brantford; At the same time, all the captured trains were sent to the city of Windsor, ready to transport troops to the front.

According to Su Linxu's vision, he occupied Hamilton, a major commercial town in Canada, on the 22nd, and threatened Toronto on the 23rd.

In Windsor, 3 trains were captured at a time, and only 1 brigade could be transported at a time, Su Linxu ordered Ma Longtan to organize the transportation of troops in Windsor City, and he led the staff team to London Town by airship.

By the time Su Linxu arrived in London Town, Wu Junsheng had already ordered a small cavalry force to guard Kitchener, and the main cavalry force to occupy Brantford. Because the cavalry had been stationed in Woodstock Town yesterday, it can be seen that Wu Junsheng still has a certain strategic vision, he knows that if he wants to hold London Town, he must establish the first line of defense in Woodstock, which can be regarded as a crooked attack, for which he has won the special appreciation of Lieutenant General Su Linxu.

This morning, after Wu Junsheng received the order, he had already sent an infantry regiment to Woodstock to establish a defensive line.

At 9 a.m., the first Japanese mercenary brigade arrived in the town of London, and Su Linxu ordered the troops not to get off the train, and the train continued to Woodstock.

At 11 o'clock in the afternoon, Bai Yin called that the cavalry brigade had occupied the city of Brantford, 2 trains had been captured, all railway lines were intact, and the troops were organizing a cordon in the direction of Hamilton.

Subsequently, Su Linxu ordered Bai Yin Da Cheng to send someone to escort the two trains back to London Town; and ordered Marlon Pond, all the transports listed to go to Brantford; Ordered Wu Junsheng, as the commander-in-chief of the former enemy, to lead the troops to Brantford and prepare to occupy the city of Hamilton.

Feng Guohua is very satisfied with Su Linxu's rapid progress, approaching the commercial city of Hamilton, followed by Toronto, the industrial center of Canada, then the capital Ottawa, down the St. Lawrence River, Montreal and Quebec City; The area to be occupied is the most prosperous and wealthy place in Canada, and it is also the place where Canada has a heavy army; For this reason, Feng Guohua sent a telegram instructing Su Linxu not to rush forward, but to fight steadily and step by step.
