Chapter Seventy-Three: The Purpose Has Been Achieved

In the end, the coalition forces were still unable to replace the remaining six machine guns with Makqin heavy machine guns according to Wang Sirui's request.

Because it was too late in terms of time, in the end, he could only contribute all four machine guns in the hands of the 3,000 coalition troops who attacked first.

However, two of the four machine guns that were given to Wang Sirui at the beginning were drawn from this.

In other words, in the end, Wang Sirui only got six Makqin heavy machine guns, as well as some other scrap copper and rotten iron.

In terms of ammunition, he got an extra 20,000 rounds of ammunition, and seeing that the sky was getting dark, Wang Sirui didn't plan to entangle with the coalition forces anymore.

As for the demands of the coalition forces, Wang Sirui also agreed, but he had to delay the return of the wounded until tomorrow morning.

"Weapons can talk, at any time, don't just treat him as a weapon, you need to treat him as your own brother, your right-hand man. What you usually do to him, when you go to the battlefield, he treats you the same way he treats you. In the trenches, Wang Sirui calmly talked to several company commanders about weapons.

"Why can't I hear that?" Tian Zhichao touched his head, he has played with guns all his life, although he knows this truth, but he can't judge whether the weapon can be used by just pulling the trigger anyway.

"It's normal that you don't have special training, so you can't hear it now. After a while, there will be no war, and I'll teach you how to judge this. Wang Sirui smiled and explained.

"We have nine heavy machine guns, and we can put one on average for a few tens of meters, and now we can finally kill foreign devils." Wu Yang said with a little excitement.

He had seen the power of the heavy machine guns before, and there were only three heavy machine guns.

If all the current nine heavy machine guns were fired, it is estimated that those rifles would not need to be fired, and they would just hide behind and listen to the sound.

As soon as he remembered the scene of nine heavy machine guns firing at the same time, Wu Yang felt that his whole body was boiling, and his blood seemed to be churning up uncontrollably.

'Smack......'

Wang Sirui looked at the 'warmonger' Wu Yang, smiled angrily, but gently slapped his palm towards Wu Yang's head.

"My lord, why are you beating me?" Wu Yang was a little depressed by Wang Sirui's sudden attack, and muttered in a low voice like a resentful woman.

"It's still light to beat you, if I put you in my position and let you command this battle, I have already seen the final result." Wang Sirui didn't have a good airway.

"What result?" Wu Yang said curiously, and several other people also expressed their curiosity.

Now that there are nine heavy machine guns, shouldn't the firepower be fully utilized? Even, if possible, they want to make a surprise attack directly at the foreigners under the mountain.

With such a powerful firepower, why was he despised by Wang Sirui when he said that he would continue to fight? One group of people said that everyone did not understand.

"Annihilation!" Wang Sirui said unceremoniously.

"What? Annihilated? How is this possible? "A group of people expressed their disbelief, how could they be wiped out with such powerful firepower? It's almost the same as the total annihilation of the enemy.

"Nothing is impossible on the battlefield, if you were the commander of the enemy, would you be stupid enough to order the troops to attack when you knew that the enemy had so many machine guns?" Wang Sirui explained solemnly.

Although they are not currently facing this problem, even if they do, Wang Sirui can still solve them.

But what if one day their forces are expanded? These people must be the first candidates for the officers to lead the troops. If Wang Sirui is not around, what will they do?

Although there is not enough time to teach them systematically, Wang Sirui will never waste every opportunity to teach.

Teaching them this knowledge, or common sense, on the battlefield is far more effective than the quality of teaching later in peacetime.

Immediately after, Wang Sirui continued to speak: "Since the enemy has such powerful firepower, except for the commander with a rusty brain, no one will order the troops to charge. But this battle must be fought, and it must be won. So how can we win this war without suffering heavy losses? ”

The crowd shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know.

In fact, the question asked by Wang Sirui is not very difficult, you only need to be flexible and think widely, and you can easily think of a solution.

But obviously, due to the limitations of his thinking, it is unlikely that these people under his command will be able to think about this aspect for the time being.

"Quite simply, there are two ways." Wang Sirui stretched out two fingers.

"If you don't want to wait longer, then wait until the evening, take advantage of the night, let the troops disperse and quietly touch up. As soon as the soldiers rushed to the position, then our heavy machine guns were useless, and as more and more soldiers rushed up, the balance of victory would eventually tilt in their favor. ”

"But it's also risky, and what happens if the enemy finds out? The consequence is that the attacking soldiers will suffer heavy losses. In such a narrow area, so many soldiers simply have nowhere to hide. And we have such a dense network of firepower. Even if the view is blocked at night, relying on a strong firepower network can still inflict heavy casualties on them. ”

This is Wang Sirui's first method, which requires a great risk.

But the benefits are proportional to the risks, and as long as they can succeed, they will be able to end the battle before dawn tomorrow and completely wash away the shame of the past.

And in hand-to-hand combat, the coalition forces also have an absolute advantage.

Wang Sirui doesn't want to admit this, the people of the Qing Dynasty look malnourished one by one, how can they fight hand-to-hand with tall foreigners? When encountering a slight weakness, it is estimated that the opponent's fist may directly smash him unconscious.

"The second way is to make full use of the existing resources and mobilize a few artillery pieces from behind. Before attacking, bombard our positions and knock out our firing points one by one. Although it will take a little more ammunition and time to fight in this way, it is the safest way. It doesn't have to lose too many troops, and it can easily get rid of us. Wang Sirui said the second method.

Artillery is known as the god of war, and this is recognized all over the world.

And as long as the coalition forces mobilize a few artillery pieces to come over, let's not talk about whether they can knock out their firepower points.

Even these cannons keep firing dozens of shells, which can completely destroy the psychological defense line of their people.

Even if Wang Sirui had already dug the fortifications, it was only temporary after all, and if the shell explosion point was too close to the fortifications, they could still be easily destroyed.

"My lord, what should we do then?"

"In terms of the number of our troops, our purpose in this battle has been achieved, and according to common sense, we should retreat tonight. But we can't just leave, we have to leave something for them......" Wang Sirui said with a smirk.
