The Sichuan army advanced until about 300 meters in front of the first line of defense of the Qin army before pausing, and after a little reorganization of the ranks, the Sichuan soldiers who did not encounter artillery fire were even more emboldened. A small number of skirmishers were organized at this distance, and then a volley of guns fired in order before the charge began again at a faster pace!

Shi Donglai did not have the slightest nervousness, although he lacked actual combat experience in this battalion, but now he was not worried at all. "If twenty or thirty years ago, the hand was not a breech gun, but a smoothbore gun or a Mini rifle, so the Sichuan army was still a strong force. It's a pity ......" Shi Donglai put down the telescope and shook his head slightly. Times have changed, really have changed!

He said to the correspondent beside him: "Greet the brothers below, all calm down!" Don't give orders and don't shoot! "There was a sparkle in his eyes, and he was filled with great confidence. Here, there will be a massacre soon!

"A hundred meters of fire! A hundred meters to fire! Remember, if a heavy machine gun doesn't go off, no one is allowed to shoot! "Captain Li Tao's mood is a little nervous, the enemy army on the opposite side is getting closer and closer, although he is definitely stupid in the Sichuan army, and he completely took the initiative to come up to die, but he is still nervous because of the shortage of experience in the war.

The Sichuan army is getting closer and closer, and the bullets are also 'chirping' in all directions. Li Tao ignored the rows of salvos of the Sichuan army, and only secretly counted the steps of the Sichuan soldiers in his heart, estimating the distance.

One hundred meters! Here it comes!

And didn't wait long, one step at a time, one meter four left (right, two hundred meters is just over a hundred steps. Li Tao slapped his thigh and yelled at the machine gunner beside him: "Fight, fire!" Call me! ”

"Da Da Da!" The heavy machine gun roared, its muzzle spewing out long tongues of fire. Quickly rain bullets into the swarming crowd of enemies.

With the fire of the heavy machine guns, the rifles at the front also rang out. Bullets rained down.

The queue of Sichuan soldiers who were walking forward immediately fell down with rows and rows of soldiers screaming.

Heavy machine guns hit like the wind. The ferocity of firepower is not at all comparable to that of a rifle. Li Tao next to him could even clearly feel the powerful kinetic energy generated when the bullet was fired.

The Sichuan army initially insisted on firing back, but soon began to retreat in panic. Li Tao was about to order his troops to pursue, when the artillery of the Sichuan army began to breathe fire. The order to pursue immediately retracted into Li Tao's stomach.

"Boom-boom-boom-"

A cannon roar rang out behind the Qin army's position. The pursuit of the infantry was stopped, but the artillerymen were not idle. According to the artillery bombardment of the Sichuan army, they had already calculated where the artillery positions of the Sichuan army were. The reason why it has been triggered but not triggered is only because of Shi Donglai's order. To repel the attack of the Sichuan army, Li Taobu did not need artillery assistance.

In a military tent, a Qing army officer held a pottery bowl in one hand. Around the stove, drinking hot water. I suddenly heard a loud 'boom', and before I could react, a dull clanging sound sounded in my ears! The entire tent shook and shook in flames, and waves of scorching air poured in from the tent......

The fierce shelling lured Tang Yougeng out of the rear of the Sichuan army, and when he found the place where the shells fell, his heart stopped instantly. I hurriedly looked through the binoculars and found that the entire artillery position had been completely submerged in fire and smoke. The artillery fire of the Qin army was pouring on the artillery positions he was familiar with.

Unprecedented heavy shelling! More than 20 artillery pieces fired at full speed, the earthquake trembled, and the blue sky was filled with gunsmoke. The flesh and blood of the artillery of the Sichuan army are struggling to survive in the purgatory of iron and fire.

"All the artillery of the army, predetermined in the orientation of the No. A combat area, 50 to 65 on the right. Far 40 to 45, rapid fire! ”

A burst of artillery fire flattened the Qin artillery team in the artillery position of the Sichuan army, and the fire did not stop here. Instead, he quickly pointed the muzzle of the cannon at the Sichuan infantry in front of him. The rumbling cannonball fell on Tang Yougeng's head.

Even the mortars that had been concealed all this time showed their faces, and shells fired at the opposite position.

Firelight. Patches of firelight burst out in the Sichuan army's position, and the loud bang brought out the violent tremors of the surface. Waves of air washed over the position. The officers and soldiers on the front line of the Qin army all looked excitedly at the fire and smoke in front of them, and watched their enemy's positions being washed to the ground.

The artillery was fired accurately! Each shell seemed to have eyes, and it was aimed at the Sichuan army to assemble and land, and countless explosion points were blowing up at the same time.

The artillery of the Qin army, with more than 20 guns, was divided into three positions. But at this moment, cannons of different calibers can simultaneously shoot shells at the same place at different distances and positions! This is the premise of the Qin army's infantry assault -- the basis of artillery in the coordinated operation of infantry artillery.

Shi Donglai appeared at the front of the position, grabbed Li Tao's shoulders and shook them violently, shouting in the rumbling cannon: "Order the troops, get on the bayonet!" ”

In the trenches, there was immediately an exhilarating shout.

And at this moment, in the rear of the Qin army's front, thousands of cavalry, and the cavalry of two brigades, had already drawn the knife in its sheath. Just waiting for Wei Ming's order.

Barrage Xu Jin, very primitive and rough barrage Xu Jin. It's like a recruit who has just started military training, and a guy who walks in unison is like a dog. But the artillery of the Qin army can only go so far, and the primitive artillery observation equipment makes it difficult for them to go to the next level. And for the Sichuan army, such a level is completely okay.

The Sichuan army, which had just lost the battle and the artillery position was taken up again, was already demoralized. Now that such an artillery bombardment was suddenly encountered, the front-line positions were instantly annihilated by the smoke of gunpowder. The reserves assembled in the deep positions behind were also shattered by artillery fire, and the Sichuan troops had no effective means of resistance except for a few bullets fired into the barrage in a panic. They could only retreat in a clamour, or be torn to pieces by artillery fire.

Fifteen rounds of neat salvos, a distance of less than three hundred meters, but this distance is only the distance of the barrage advance, in fact, the panicked Sichuan army, who could not estimate how long the barrage would last, retreated a mile or even further! They discarded the qiē of the front and also confused their own formation.

Soon, the barrage turned into an indiscriminate bombardment. Just like when dealing with the artillery positions and front-line positions of the Sichuan army before, the artillerymen wore single coats and bare shoulders in the winter, ignoring the strong vibrations, and constantly repeated the actions of loading ammunition and pulling bolts; Shells flew over the heads of the Sichuan army, and the hot barrels were pulled out of the barrels of the cannons, and they fell to the ground with a clatter.

Shi Donglai personally led the troops to attack, and the shells were whistling above the heads of the team. The distance was only fifty or sixty meters, and the infantry of the three brigades of the Qin army who attacked always advanced with a bowed posture, and kept advancing!

The blast blast blew them to the point where they could barely breathe, and their hearts swelled with the sound of an explosion; The shock wave also made them feel a hot pain on their faces, necks, hands, and exposed skin, and there was only a 'buzzing' echo in their ears.

But these are nothing compared to the soldiers of the Sichuan Army who are suffering from disasters.

For the battalion leaders of Tang Yougeng's troops, the power of the artillery bombardment was a natural disaster. They couldn't understand how to do it with such rows of gunsmoke and flames rolling forward in front of them. Countless soldiers and officers of the Sichuan Army were stunned, they had never seen a barrage like a boiling wall of fire! Although the width of this barrage is only three or four hundred meters on the left and right, the depth of the front and back is even shorter. But its existence is a miracle in itself!

Shi Donglai stepped on the hot ground, trying not to let his feet fall into those large and small craters, and not to step on the bloody corpses of the Zhongchuan soldiers.

This is not the first time he has experienced such a situation, and his unit has experienced this kind of barrage twice before and after on the exercise ground. But, that's the exercise ground, this is the battlefield! The nature is different, and the feeling is even more different.

"Kill......"

When the cannonballs no longer advanced slowly, but smashed wildly into the chaotic defeated soldiers of the Sichuan army. When the soldiers of the Qin army of the three brigades pounced bravely with bayonets, and when Wei Ming led the two cavalry brigades to crash in...... the defeat of the Sichuan army was decided, and even Sun Wu could not save the battle.

……

On October 28, the governor of Sichuan, Tang Yougeng, coerced 10,000 troops to fight with the Qin army in Hanzhong in Zhaohua.

In less than half a day, the Sichuan army was defeated. Tang Yougeng was wounded and escaped, only more than 2,000 of the elite of the Sichuan army fled back to Jianzhou, and the remaining 7,000 people were missing or killed, and 5,000 were captured.

The Qin army defeated the Tang Yougeng of the Sichuan army, which was more than three times its own body, and although this result was not as good as the fall of Guangzhou and attracted the attention of the world, it set off turbulent waves around Hanzhong.

Tang Yougeng, this is Tang Yougeng, a famous general of the dynasty. Look at the Qing army besieging Hanzhong, who dares to compare his reputation?

Lei Zhengwan and Tao Maolin of many armies?

Or Hubei Governor Li Changle?

These three people are inferior to Tang Yougeng!

But such a powerful person, he was almost wiped out. "Qin Jun is really so powerful!?"

When the news came back to Hanzhong, of course, the whole city cheered. The people of Hanzhong have the most confidence in Liu Xian, and they have the deepest relationship with the Qin army. If the army is defeated this time, it will not only be the upper echelons of the Qin army such as Liu Xian, but also the wealthy ordinary people who will be even worse.

The past events of the Hunan army's bloody sweep of Tianjing twelve years ago remind them all the time.

Of course, it is impossible for all of the two or three million Hanzhong people to support Liu Xian. Of course, there were also those who were hostile to Liu Xian and secretly prayed for Liu Xian's defeat to survive. It's just that under the strict supervision of the military intelligence department, it is difficult for such people to climb to the top of the Qin military system, and it is even more difficult to control the military power.

It is also because of this that the dignified Xi'an general, Rong Lu will attach so much importance to Zhang Shoushan.

"Waste, pure waste!"

At the station, the lights went out. There was no one else in the room, and Zhang Shoushan's excited face instantly turned into infinitely hideous. He touched the small jade Buddha statue hanging on his chest, which was one of the more than ten gifts that Rong Lu gave him before and after, and it was also Zhang Shoushan's favorite one. Because Zhang Shoushan believes in Buddhism. Of course, Rong Lu gave him this thing to do what he liked.

The best mutton fat white jade carving, fine technique. Since Zhang Shoushan got his hands on it last year, he hung it on his chest with a gold thread and never left his body day and night. But such a thing that he liked so tightly in the past, today, at this moment, is like a hot potato, and his chest is going to be burned! (To be continued......) R1292
