563 Night of Fire

The uprisings of the German Revolution were not always as breezy and unfired as in the Free City of Hamburg. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Elsewhere, the revolution remained true to itself, bloody and violent.

Hoffman was dressed in a dark brown hunting suit, with a red armband on his arm and a red five-star pinned to his chest, and everyone behind him was dressed like this, although there was no uniform uniform, but he wore the same armband and five-star badge. Hoffman held in his hand an S6 submachine gun, a predecessor made by the Germans, which was very popular among the Germans. In the regular army of the Tang Dynasty, more and more assault rifles and short assault rifles began to be installed to replace submachine guns with insufficient range and power, and a large number of S4 (Thompson) and S6 (drum version MP40) submachine guns that were eliminated by the Tang Army began to become the weapons of the Datang Special Corps and foreign aid.

The workers and citizens led by Hoffman used a variety of weapons, some were holding the export version of the Tang Dynasty SC-3 rifle, some were using the S1 rifle retired by the Tang Army, and of course some were using various weapons made in Europe, and even those who did not have a gun and had a homemade spear.

The young postman came out of the corner and reported to Hoffmann and his team: "Commando No. 2 is blocked by the guards of Dortmund on West Street, and Mr. Commander-in-Chief wants Commando No. 6 to support from the flank. The enemy of West Street has a coffee grind. ”

Hoffman nodded and said, "Let's go over here." ”

The war situation in European countries is changing rapidly, and the past ten years can be described as changing with each passing day. Datang has led the revolution of rear-loading rifled paper shell bullets and metal fixed ammunition in rifles, and the coffee mill machine gun exported by Datang has made no European country still stubbornly follow the road of line tactics at this time, and all of them have become World War I-style skirmishers and trench warfare. Subsequently, Britain and other countries with certain industrial capacity have been able to imitate the coffee mill machine guns exported by Datang on their own. Datang plans to launch a more ferocious export version of the Maxim machine gun.

There were only two coffee mills in the Dortmund Guard, a machine gun that fired paper shells and required manpower to constantly drive the crank outside the gun to shoot continuously, and like the infantry field gun, it was carried on a small gun vehicle, which was completely different from the heavy machine gun used by the Tang Dynasty. This weapon was just interviewed. Many European countries have bought a lot of them despite their high prices of up to 2,000 Tang Yuan each. Later, the British and French copied it successfully, and the price on the market was reduced to about 1,500 Tang Yuan.

The revolting assault team attempted to capture Dortmund's town hall, but was met with heavy fire from the guards on West Street, and Commando No. 2, which was not much prepared, suffered some losses and was hindered. The commandos didn't have a lot of heavy firepower, and they couldn't even have guns in their hands, so they didn't have a good way to stop them with makeshift bunkers.

Hoffman led his squad and quickly reached the flank of the enemy position. There was no fire on the battlefield, and it was thought that the assault team found that it was impossible to seize this position by physical assault, so they temporarily stopped the assault. Dortmund is also a free city, and its own defense force is relatively limited, and the Dortmund uprising led by the National Revolution numbered 3,000 people, in addition to local workers and citizens, there were also revolutionaries from other rural areas. There is also a combat company of more than 100 people from the former German Corps.

"You guys, put the mortars on the roof. We're condescending and blasting this group of enemies away! Blacksmith Hoffman confessed.

Among his assault team was a 60mm mortar and carried a total of eight shells. It is also a popular weapon for European armies, as it is portable, suitable for providing fire support for infantry operations, and is not difficult to manufacture. Although Datang did not export its own mortars, through various channels, European countries still made their own mortars. Although it is not comparable to similar products of Datang in terms of portability, weight, accuracy and power, it has an epoch-making role for the troops.

The Great German Revolt was directly supported by the Tang Dynasty, and a large number of decommissioned weapons from the Tang Dynasty flowed into the German regions. It was used by the insurrectionary masses. Even though most of the insurgents did not have much training in militarization, they were no different from their enemies than their enemies in terms of weapons, and even slightly outperformed.

The enemy on the machine-gun position did not know that on the roof of one side, several young revolutionaries had already set up mortars, and as Hoffman gave the order, the mortars slammed out a shell. It's just that young people are not particularly familiar with the manipulation of this weapon, and the shell did not hit the position, but smashed on a house outside the position, making a loud explosion.

Although this hit was missed, it still terrified the enemy. They found that the rebels still had artillery, and the guards wanted to fight back, but Hoffman and the others were on the other flank, some distance away, and even more on the roof, and the guards could not attack at all.

"One more shot, be accurate!"

However, the cannon still missed, but it was getting closer, and the enemy position became more panicked. It wasn't until the third shot that the mortar shell finally landed in their position, killing and wounding two people, but not the coffee mill gun.

On the other side, the dormant No. 2 commando team saw the support of the friendly forces, and immediately refreshed their spirits and launched a charge again, the machine gunners on that side were already a little hesitant and frightened, and tried to control the machine gun in a hurry, but another shell came, although they were still not concentrated, but they could not fight back smoothly.

Hoffman led dozens of team members to kill from the flank, and the two assault teams successfully rushed into the enemy position, and the guards soldiers finally gave up resistance and surrendered, and this coffee mill became Hoffman's trophy.

An hour later, two hundred insurgents occupied the town hall in Dortmund and raised the tricolor flag of the German Republic in the night sky. On the same night, the insurgents in Bremen, Lübeck, Bielefeld, Essen, Cologne, Bonn and other cities were able to grasp the situation, and the German Republic occupied a large part of western Germany in one night, and this was only the prelude to their exertion.
