"Attention Ministries! Wait until those foreign devils are in range and then fire! Mortars cut off the enemy's rear, and heavy artillery battalions are responsible for taking out enemy artillery! Sun Hao, commander of the Second Brigade of the Xinhua Army, ordered!

"Yes, Brigadier General!" The commanders of the two infantry battalions under the 2nd Brigade of the Xinhua Army received orders. was bombarded by the Spaniards' artillery before, and they all had a long time to hold back the fire. The heavy artillery battalion was also informed, everything was ready, just waiting for the Spaniards to collide!

On the battlefield, more than 3,000 soldiers of the Spanish Army lined up in a neat phalanx and approached the position of the Xinhua Army with great vigor and high spirits. Although this tactic is completely looking for death, I have to admit that this does seem to be very imposing. A high-ranking official of the Xinhua State Council watched the situation on the battlefield with binoculars on the wall of Xinhua City. They were shocked by the Spanish attack. After all, the high-ranking officials of the Xinhua Kingdom were either pirates, farmers and merchants, and their knowledge was limited.

"Humph! The Spaniards are looking for death! The dense crowd will undoubtedly become a target for our artillery! Look, soon some of the Spaniards will be able to stand it! Zhao Yi, Minister of Logistics of the Xinhua Army, said disdainfully. As the person in charge of the logistics equipment of the Xinhua Army, he knows better than those high-ranking officials in the Government Affairs Yuan that the weapons and equipment of the Xinhua Army are powerful. There is nothing wrong with the tactics of the Spaniards, placed in the West. It's just that in the face of the Xinhua Army, which is equipped with new equipment, this is completely looking for death.

Hearing Zhao Yi say this, the senior officials of the Government Council couldn't help but look forward to it even more. After all, the Spaniards were enemies, and seeing them eliminated was undoubtedly the result that everyone wanted to see the most.

Soon, the Spanish Army attacked only two hundred and fifty meters away from the position of the Xinhua Army! As long as they advance another hundred and fifty meters, they can open fire, suppress the enemy with powerful firepower, and then take the opportunity to attack the positions of the Xinhua army and kill all those yellow-skinned monkeys! It's just that it was at this time that the Xinhua Army opened fire!

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "The first to fire were 18 105mm howitzers from the heavy artillery battalion of the Xinhua Army. As early as when the artillery of the Spanish Army opened fire, the officers and men of the heavy artillery battalion were a little overwhelmed. If it weren't for the fear that they would scare the Spaniards away if they opened fire, they would have eliminated the Spaniards' artillery long ago. Now that the order to attack was given, these long-prepared cannons immediately roared!

105-mm shells weighing 12.5 kg whizzed towards the positions of the Spanish artillery. Accurately fell on the artillery positions of the Spanish Army. The shells exploded, leaving craters on the ground and creating a wave of air that overturned the heavy artillery. The Spanish artillery on the artillery position was torn to pieces in the explosion, and there were stumps and broken arms everywhere.

As soon as the heavy artillery battalion of the Xinhua Army opened fire, the artillery positions of the Spanish Army were enveloped in gunsmoke. The Spanish Army's 12 4-pounder guns and 6 6-pounder guns suffered heavy losses in the heavy shelling of the Xinhua Army. Seeing this situation, Major General Axel and others were dumbfounded.

"Damn! Heavy artillery! That's at least the power of a 24-pounder gun! Those yellow-skinned monkeys actually hid heavy artillery! Major General Axel roared. When the coastal defense artillery of the Xinhua Army beat the Spanish Luzon fleet, he was a little worried. However, Major General Balvino comforted him by saying that the shore defense artillery could not threaten the infantry attacking from land, which reassured him. But now it seems that the Xinhua Army has been prepared for a long time.

At this time, on the position of the Xinhua Army, there was a loud sound of gunfire. Two infantry battalions, armed with a total of 20 mortars. The 60-mm mortar of the Xinhua Army, although not very powerful, can reach a rate of fire of five rounds a minute. Mortar shells are undoubtedly the best weapon against infantry. The fragile human body simply cannot withstand the power of these shell explosions.

I saw that the dense shells exploded in the phalanx of the Spanish Army, and shrapnel was shot everywhere, easily harvesting lives. This kind of phalanx adopted by the Spanish Army has greatly increased the shelling effect of the Xinhua Army. Almost every shell explodes, taking away several lives.

The phalanx of the Spanish Army began to be somewhat unstable under the heavy shelling of the mortars of the Xinhua Army. After all, even the bravest soldier can be terrified in the face of such huge casualties!

After the mortars of the Xinhua Army opened fire, Major General Axel's face turned pale, and he had already begun to exclaim in his heart: "God! Do these yellow-skinned monkeys have hundreds of cannons? Otherwise, there wouldn't be so powerful at all! ”

The infantry of the Xinhua Army on the position also opened fire! The Spaniards, who are lined up in a neat line, are undoubtedly the best targets. At the beginning of the decisive battle with the natives, those natives also knew that the Dao would launch a charge, so that they could quickly break through the positions of the Xinhua army. Now it seems that these Spaniards are not even comparable to the natives in terms of tactics, except that their weapons and equipment are a little more powerful than the natives!

"Bang! Bang! Bang! The crisp sound of a rifle like fried beans rang out. Although the Xinhua Army on the position only has two infantry battalions, even with the brigade headquarters, it is only a little over 2,000. However, the damage inflicted on the Spanish Army by their shots was even heavier.

The Spanish Army soldiers who were attacking forward fell to the ground one by one as if they were cutting wheat. Although after the soldiers in front fell, the soldiers in the back immediately made up for it. However, under the intensive firepower of the soldiers of the Xinhua Army, the casualties paid by these Spanish troops were very large. Within a few minutes, the first few phalanxes were all killed!

"Damn, how is this possible? Could it be that there are tens of thousands of yellow-skinned monkeys? Colonel Elias roared madly. Watching his soldiers being slaughtered by the Xinhua army, his heart charged with anger.

Major General Axel also had a turbulent storm in his heart, he had observed with a telescope before that there were only more than 2,000 Xinhua troops on the position. But they were able to form such a dense firepower, which was far beyond his expectations! As a veteran, Major General Axel only needed a preliminary estimate to conclude that the soldiers of the Xinhua Army could shoot at least five times faster than the Spanish Army. Even he couldn't believe this result. When firing, Spanish Army soldiers are usually able to guarantee a rate of fire of two to three rounds per minute. That's pretty fast! However, in front of the Xinhua Army, it looked so rubbish.

In addition, the range of the rifles of the Xinhua Army also frightened Major General Axel. It is important to know that the effective range of the mainstream rifles in Europe is only 100 meters. As a rule, infantry will not open fire until the enemy is within a distance of 100 meters, so that they can be guaranteed to kill and damage the opponent. However, the fact that the Spanish Army was now shot at a distance of 200 meters from the position of the Xinhua Army does not show that the effective range of the rifles of the Xinhua Army is more than twice that of the Western rifles?

"Oh God! What the hell is going on? Can those ignorant and backward yellow-skinned monkeys make such a terrible weapon? Major General Axel's face was full of horror. He now understood that they had kicked the iron plate this time. Both he and Major General Balvino thought that the main force of the Xinhua Army was fighting in the Sulu Sultanate, and the nest was extremely empty, and they could easily capture Xinhua City. But now it seems that this is simply impossible. The Luzon fleet, under the attack of the coastal defense artillery of the Xinhua Army, had already lost the main force. Now it's the turn of the Spanish Army again!

The battle was fierce, but the situation on the battlefield did show a one-sided situation. The Spanish Army was completely at a disadvantage, and under the strong firepower of the Xinhua Army, the Spanish Army suffered heavy losses. This can no longer be described as a battle, it is a complete massacre. Relying on advanced weapons, although the Xinhua army has few troops, it is still killing these Spaniards!

The neat Spanish phalanx, after suffering heavy losses, collapsed one after another. The original expressions of bravery and confidence were no longer to be found on the faces of these tall Spanish soldiers. Instead, horror and despair! They never thought that those Chinese would pay the horror, in front of the Chinese army, they had no power to fight back at all!

Without receiving orders from their commanders, the Spanish soldiers retreated frantically. The originally neat formation also became messy at this moment. Everyone wanted to be able to grow two more legs, so that they might be able to escape faster.

On the city wall of Xinhua City, the senior officials of the Government Council of Xinhua Kingdom were also dumbfounded. They knew the strength of the Xinhua Army and believed that the Xinhua Army would win this battle. However, they never imagined that the Spaniards would be so vulnerable. The originally vigorous attack was easily repelled in front of the Xinhua army. Those mighty formations, now it seems, are nothing more than shows. This also gave these high-ranking officials a more intuitive feeling of the strength of the Xinhua Army. Everyone is more optimistic about the future of Xinhuaguo. When they learned that the Spaniards were pressurizing, many people were a little scared. After all, the Spaniards have colonized Luzon for more than 300 years, and in the minds of the Chinese in the South Seas, the Spaniards are undoubtedly powerful and invincible. But now, the Spaniard is behaving like this in front of him. All of a sudden, everyone's self-confidence has improved a lot.

Zhao Yi, director of the logistics department of the Xinhua Army, was very satisfied with the performance of the Xinhua Army. In the face of Western powers, the Xinhua Army is still able to exert such combat power. Then, Xinhua's occupation of the South Seas seems to be just around the corner!
