A regiment of Boer troops commanded by Long Yuhui took advantage of the short period of time when the British artillery was corrected, and at the same time, under the cover of darkness, bypassed the raging fire, and quietly withdrew to the rear from the dark trenches around which they could not see their fingers.

After a short adjustment of the British artillery, once again let out the roar of the world's first power, the entire defense line was trembling terribly, like the sound of angry thunder explosions, undulating, endless, the Boer army had just withdrawn from the defensive line, at this time it was already sparkling, explosions continued, the entire defense line has been surrounded by thick flames.

Shells are being frantically sent by the British artillery to the Boer defense line, and pieces of bombs are falling continuously on the A5 defense line, raging wildly on every piece of land, and the dust or stones hit by the shock wave generated by the bomb explosion are rolling everywhere, and the entire A5 defense line has become a purgatory on earth.

The British attacked in a cluster with the superiority of several hundred guns, and carried out a carpet bombardment of the Boer army, the shells were still exploding on the A5 line, and the fire reflected half of the sky, and the fiery red fire illuminated the night a little. The Boer troops standing behind the defensive line looked at the positions they had stayed in before, and they couldn't help but feel a trace of fear in their hearts, even frightened.

If it weren't for the timely order to retreat from Instructor Long, these Boer soldiers didn't know if they would have survived, if they would have seen the sun tomorrow, and if they would have been able to keep a complete corpse.

The artillery fire continued for about half an hour, and finally the observation soldiers on the hot air balloon noticed the difference in the position, and urgently called the artillery to stop the shelling, and five minutes later, by the afterglow of the raging fire on the position not far away, the British observers carefully inspected every trench and every corner they could see.

After three people went back and forth, the British observers could no longer sense that there was a living, moving person or animal on the A5 position. Looking at the disfigured position below that had been brightened by the artillery of their own side, the three British soldiers smiled proudly, it was impossible for anyone to survive under such powerful artillery fire, not even God.

A British soldier controlled the hot air balloon, slowly shifted the direction of the flames, controlled the hot air balloon slowly returned to the place where he set off earlier, and finally landed slowly, they wanted to celebrate their achievements, in just half an hour, a no-man's land, the next is the infantry's performance time, the task of the three of them seems to have been completed.

Night fighting, the British troops were not very accustomed to night battles, but in order to prevent the Boer army from taking advantage of the continuous sneak attacks in the night, the British [***] team was finally forced by the Boer army to learn the knowledge of night fighting.

"Speed into position." After the artillery fire is suppressed, it is always the infantry to follow the charge, because the infantry appears at this time is the most advantageous moment, and the British army is no exception, Long Yuhui, who has been in the Boer battlefield for a year, has heard a lot of British artillery and infantry cooperate in combat, knowing that after the artillery must be infantry, their own troops stay here and have nothing to defend, it is better to take advantage of the British infantry has not rushed to the position, and take the position first.

The Boer soldiers clung to their guns and hurried back to the position, and after several minutes of running, the Boers finally came to the position, and the sight in front of them really scared the Boers half to death. The trench, which was originally one person high, was now only half a man high after about half an hour of artillery fire.

The bunker was long gone, and there was nothing to be seen on the entire position except for the scorched stench and blood, not even the corpses of the soldiers who had been killed earlier, not even a single stump.

After entering the position, the Boers quickly found the position where their class was located according to the tactics they had learned, and when the trench was not high enough, they lay on the position, and the lower half of their bodies bent to adjust their position to the right place.

The 105mm, 120mm, and 150mm howitzers had stopped their terrible roar, and only the British 75mm infantry guns were still whistling, and they wanted to provide fire suppression for the infantry charge. The Boer artillery battalion, which received the news, immediately dispatched all its equipment and soldiers, urgently erected a 75-mm infantry gun on the preset position, and immediately began to retaliate against the British army.

The Boer artillery lacked, especially large-caliber heavy artillery and howitzers, Wang Lin's sponsorship of the Boers was only in the infantry series, as for the artillery, in addition to more than 100 75mm infantry guns, only 10 105mm heavy guns were sponsored, only the Boers spent a high price to buy, and the price of each shell has already been more than ten times higher than its cost, of course, the Boers paid with diamonds and gold.

The artillery of the enemy and us were fiercely confronting, you fired a few shots at my position, I fired a few rounds at yours, but in the end there were very few shells on the infantry position, and this situation lasted for about ten minutes, and the British artillery 105 mm, 120 mm and 150 mm howitzers were not willing to be lonely to join the battle.

The entire artillery battle form was changed in an instant, and the 105-mm, 120-mm, and 150-mm howitzers that had been added to the artillery fire of the two sides swept through the Boer artillery 75mm infantry gun positions with absolute superiority.

At this time, this small artillery position was under carpet bombardment, 75mm infantry guns, 105mm, 120mm and 150mm grenades, with a sharp whistling sound, one after another smashed into the Boer army's 75mm infantry gun position, the fire reflected the whole land, the martyred 75mm shells made bursts of explosions like thunder, countless corpses, countless fragments of Boer artillery soldiers, and a brand new 75mm infantry gun was sent to the sky together.

After a short artillery engagement, it ended with the total annihilation of the Boer artillery, and the British artillery did not stop until the Boer artillery positions could no longer fire a single shell. Some of the artillerymen even hesitated to fire two shots at other places, and finally they were stopped by the commander.

The Boer artillery was trained by themselves, and Wang Lin did not intend to provide them with artillery support at first, but under Michiri's enthusiastic offensive, Wang Lin finally agreed to sell them some artillery to end the matter, but the Chinese did not provide training for artillery, and Miqiri could only accept Wang Lin's conditions and train the artillery by their own people.

A battalion of artillery, thirty 75-mm infantry guns, was destroyed in an instant by hundreds of large and small caliber guns of the opposing side, and hundreds of artillery soldiers were buried with these dead guns.

The British infantry was slowly moving forward, and the excellent expression on their faces told Long Yuhui that they did not believe that anyone would survive in the face of such a powerful artillery fire of the British Empire, and thousands of British soldiers with a smile on their shoulders crossed their rifles, and marched forward with a triumphant pace.

The Boer army on the defensive was a little nervous at this time, the previous artillery attack was once again deeply seared into their hearts, in the face of such a powerful artillery fire, they were already a little afraid at this time, although they had fought with the British for several years before, but this was the first time they had encountered such a dense and fierce artillery fire.

Although the soldiers of the two battalions of the vanguard of the British army were a little lax, they still maintained the formation of a cluster charge and slowly pressed towards the A5 defense line, and the focus of the attack was the Michry command headquarters more than 100 miles behind the A5 defense line.

From then on, the British Empire no longer had to spend so much on military expenses to maintain the Boer battlefield, let alone sacrifice more soldiers to maintain the British Empire's rule. Two kilometers behind the two battalions of British infantry, there is a regiment of British infantry following closely, and there are more British troops following behind, advancing, they are confident that they will end this damn war in this battle, return to England and drink afternoon tea with peace of mind, and slowly fall into love with their wives and girlfriends, instead of war after war.

The British army, which had previously concentrated hundreds of artillery pieces for carpet bombardment, wanted to rely on their powerful artillery fire and absolute superiority to tear a gap in the A5 defense line, so that their troops could break through the Boer defense line and penetrate deep into the enemy's interior, thus leading to the rout of the entire defense line.

Long Yuhui quietly lay down in a newly dug observation hole on the position, the original regimental headquarters has been wiped out, all that is left is a raging fire, the facilities inside, tables, chairs, benches and a few maps that can be taken away in the future have been burned out, the A5 defense line at this time, if some corpses are added, then it will definitely be a real purgatory on earth.

'Boom' A 75mm shell exploded fifty meters away from Long Yuhui, and the lumps of earth driven by the shock wave kept rolling in the air, and finally landed on Long Yuhui's body.

Long Yuhui patted his back gently, slapped away the lump of dirt that had fallen on his body, and continued to lie down in the observation hole to carefully watch the distance of the British infantry and the offensive formation.

The ranks of thousands of men were lined up horizontally by the British, and there were hundreds of soldiers in each row, forming a charging team composed of three or four rows of soldiers, and the pride in their hearts and the relaxation after the artillery bombardment made these British soldiers forget the fact that everything could happen on the battlefield, and continued to stride forward with their own smiles, without any due evasive action.

At this time, the British advance had already reached the range of the heavy machine gun, but in order to prevent himself from eating the opponent's shells, Long Yuhui still decided to put the enemy in some and then fight.

Two hundred meters, one hundred and fifty meters, one hundred meters, Long Yuhui secretly calculated the distance between the two sides in his heart, such an arrogant British had reached a distance of one hundred meters in front of the position, and he had not even noticed that there was someone on the position in front of him, and he was still swaggering and marching forward triumphantly.

"Fuck, call me!"
