Chapter 460: Breaking the Record

The torrent of the main warriors of Zhen instantly flooded the Ming army car city. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Kill!"

Immediately after that, countless roars rang out at the same time.

The Ming soldiers, who were waiting for the battle, did not hesitate to stab their bayonets.

Don't think that the Ming army's firepower crushes all the enemies and doesn't play with bayonets, in fact, bayonets are still an important means of warfare for the Ming army, one by one Ming soldiers wearing gas masks, holding rifles with a length of more than one meter seven after adding bayonets, fiercely roared and stabbed into the bodies of those Zhen main warriors, and the alloy steel forged bayonet of the triangular pyramid instantly penetrated the thin chain mail, and even the entire opponent's body.

And their enemies are just as fierce.

With religious fanaticism, those Zhen Lord warriors roared like wild beasts, brandishing the scimitar of the great arc, and slashed at the Ming army in a desperate manner.

These people are not regular troops.

In fact, the vast majority of them were ordinary people before, but they were encouraged by those elders with religion, which is also the reason why Wang Ping's cavalry brigade missed, he did not regard these people as opponents at all, the Ming army passed after breaking up the main force of the Persian army, the cavalry brigade rushed too fast, and there was a gap between the infantry brigade. And after the cavalry brigade passed, those elders immediately gathered believers and launched an attack on the Ming infantry behind, Persia itself was ***** these elders had a very strong organizational ability, it can be said that the order of the temple was issued, and all the men who could take up arms in the surrounding villages and towns were assembled, so in the end an army of nearly 60,000 was created.

Then they used 20,000 cannon fodder to break through the line of fire of the Ming army.

With faith in the lord of Zhen, anger at the invaders, and hatred for the deceased relatives, all the Persians rushed to the Ming army Checheng in desperation, and fought a bloody battle with the Ming infantry with the scimitars in their hands. In the collision of cold weapons, the roar of bloody fighting, and the constant sound of gunfire, groups of Persians continued to flock to the Ming army's circular defense line like moths to the fire, and then were nailed to death by bayonets, killed by bullets, and cut off limbs by sabers, and their scimitars also continued to cut down one Ming soldier after another, and the dead bodies on both sides kept piling up.

Blood stained the yellow sand.

"This is really tragic!"

In the middle of the Ming army's defense line, Gao Yang stood under the military flag and sighed.

"Fire!"

Then he said to the artilleryman beside him.

Eighteen brigade three-inch field guns, nine three-inch howitzers, and sixteen battalion two-inch howitzers roared at the same time, and forty-three shells flew out with a whizz, and then ......

Directly in front of the Ming army's defensive line.

Immediately afterward, a yellow-green poisonous mist rose in the explosion.

du air bombs.

The Persians in the poisonous fog at the explosion point were dazed for a moment, and soon as the chlorine gas continued to spread and envelop their bodies, dissolving into their bodily fluids, starting from the eyes, nasal cavity, oral cavity, respiratory tract, lungs and even stomach, terrifying hydrochloric acid and hypochlorous acid were constantly generated, frantically ablating their organs, those hapless Zhen Lord warriors wept in agony, snot, coughed with all their might, abandoned their weapons, fell to their knees on the ground, kept spitting pink phlegm, and waited for death in despair in pain.

"Go ahead and shoot all the shells!"

Gao Yang said with a cruel smile.

Forty-three cannons with a frequency of more than three rounds per minute, all the time non-stop pouring du air bombs towards the front of the Ming army's defense line, soon the yellow-green poisonous fog gradually began to flood the entire battle line, and under the action of the wind direction, it spread towards the Ming army where the fierce battle, all the poisonous fog spread, those Zhen main warriors who were frantically rushing towards the Ming army fell without exception like a plague, struggling in pain coughing and wailing, and soon this poisonous fog flooded the place where the battle was raging, The same Persians, who were fighting a bloody battle with the Ming army, also fell without suspense, and then allowed the Ming army's bayonets to pierce their bodies.

The Ming army was not affected in the slightest.

This strange sight instantly destroyed the morale of the Persians.

The Persians who were originally rushing to the battlefield in the back looked in horror at the battlefield shrouded in yellow-green poisonous fog in front of them, their knowledge was simply not enough to understand all this, in their opinion, this was the xie demon method used by those eastern devils, which was not at all something that mortals could fight against, none of them dared to move forward anymore, everyone, even some of the elders, fell to their knees and prayed to their gods to help them and help them as devout believers against the demons.

However, to no avail.

The gods could not hear their supplications.

Piety is also useless.

The artillery of the Ming army was still bombarding their own defense line, and the air bombs kept falling, and soon the entire defense line was completely shrouded in poisonous fog, and those Ming soldiers wearing gas masks in the poisonous fog stepped on the dead corpses everywhere with an indifferent face, and kept stabbing bayonets into the bodies of Persians who had no ability to resist on the ground, and in the poisonous fog, their figures looked extremely strange.

Gao Yang watched this scene and indifferently put on a gas mask for himself.

Because the poisonous mist was drifting towards him.

"Your Excellency!"

The officer next to him pointed to the sky and gestured to him.

The signal soldier on the airship in the sky was waving the flag, looking at the two signal flags that were constantly waving, Gao Yang waved his hand to the busy artilleryman behind him, who quickly stopped shooting.

Because just behind the Persians, who were kneeling in prayer, countless cavalry figures appeared.

The 10th Cavalry Brigade returned.

"Kill!"

Looking at the defense line of the 23rd Infantry Brigade wrapped in fog in the distance, and looking at the Zhen Lord warriors who were still praying to the gods on the periphery of the defense line, Wang Ping took a deep breath and pulled out his saber and said gloomily.

It was clear that he felt that his daughter-in-law was in trouble.

The four thousand horsemen who were arriving on either side of him drew their sabers one after another, and then under the personal leadership of the brigade commander, urged their horses to slam into the Persians with the sound of their hoofs shaking the earth.

And the latter also woke up from the anticipation of the gods, turned their heads in horror one by one, and then got up screaming, and ran in all directions desperately, but unfortunately they could not compete with the speed of the war horses, and in the blink of an eye the vanguard of the cavalry rushed to their midst, and the galloping war horses instantly knocked down the warriors of the Zhen Lord, and then the hooves of the horses nailed to the iron smashed their chests, and above their heads, there was a sabre that swung and chopped, and in the light of the sword, the corpses of the Persians fell one after another.

At this time, the Ming infantry walked out of the poisonous fog.

"Broken through by the Persians?"

Five hours later, Emperor Yang, who was racing in the palace, received the news of the battle with some astonishment.

"The firepower line composed of breech-loading artillery high-explosive shells, rapid-fire guns, and breech-loading rifled guns was actually broken through by a group of militiamen who are not even regular troops, and it also set a new record for the highest casualty in a single battle in the history of the founding of the army, an infantry brigade has a casualty rate of almost one-fifth of four hundred killed and six hundred wounded, aren't you kidding me?"

His Majesty the Emperor, who was still holding the steering wheel, said to Chief of General Staff Feng speechlessly.

Duke Feng nodded sadly.

"The 10th Cavalry Brigade rushed forward and was out of touch with the 23rd Infantry Brigade, the intelligence department missed the reconnaissance of the local people, the Economic Envoy also lacked the necessary understanding of the Persian people, the 23rd Infantry Brigade also threw away the barbed wire it originally carried because of greed, the brigade commander Gao Yang misjudged the enemy, and did not use the DU gas bomb as soon as possible, because the wind direction was unfavorable and the use of the DU gas bomb would blow back, and the soldiers did not like to shoot with gas masks, and all kinds of reasons finally led to this result."

Feng Zhen said.

"But there are also crooked hits, if this is not the case, it will take a lot of time for us to gather and annihilate so many resistances, this time they all sent themselves to the door, the 23rd Infantry Brigade killed nearly 30,000 enemies in the defense, and the remaining 20,000 people were attacked by the 10th Cavalry Brigade and the 23rd Infantry Brigade, and the last escape is said to have a total of no more than 5,000, and now the 10th Cavalry Brigade is still in pursuit, with nearly 50,000 corpses on the battlefield."

Then he added.

"Yan Hu was demoted to a major general, the two brigade commanders atonement for their crimes, and the commander of the Lianghe Branch of the Jinyi Wei Intelligence Division was dismissed."

Yang Feng said.

It's just that the latter sentence is said to Lu You.

After all, the Ming army has not suffered such tragic casualties so far, which is fortunate to have duke, if it weren't for duqi bombs, the 23rd Infantry Brigade would have been wiped out this time. Although this kind of thing is indeed very unexpected, but in the final analysis, it is still the carelessness of the envoy, and the intelligence work of Jinyiwei has not been done well, and the responsibility of the front-line generals is not very large, and their tasks have been completed very well.

"The 60,000 main warriors broke through the defense line of a brigade of modern troops, so that the latter was killed or wounded by one-fifth, and finally escaped by relying on their luck, if the Boxers had this efficiency, the Eight-Nation Alliance should cry."

Then he muttered to himself.

Indeed, the Zhen Lord is obviously much more effective than the Boxers, but there is nothing to be surprised about, after all, the descendants of the Persians even if this set of things on the modern battlefield is also very amazing, which Xiao Sa estimates is deeply aware of, but this does not change anything, if the Ming army goes deep into the Persian Plateau, it may really fall into the vast sea of people's war, but if you only target Ahvaz, you don't need to face these troubles, where you can mobilize the Zhen Lord warriors, It is estimated that there are less than 60,000 people, and the entire Persia can have a population of 5 million at this time, and the Khuzestan region can have 500,000 people who can also reach the sky.

"They still have a navy, right?"

Yang Feng suddenly asked.

"Yes, in Bandar Abbas, including four battleships and ten cruisers, all decommissioned battleships purchased from us, to which the Persian Gulf task force has already begun to attack."

Feng Zhen said.

"Then order the Marines to take it all together!"

Emperor Yang said casually.

Then he drove the queen and the concubine in his convertible and continued to drive around his palace. (To be continued.) )
