And if the enemy bombards us with artillery, because of the narrowness of the trenches, the shells fall from the top diagonally, and it is difficult to fall into the trenches, at most they will only attack the back of the trenches, as long as they do not pile up, our officers and men will not suffer extensive damage.

As for the problem of poisonous smoke from artillery grenades, our soldiers are equipped with gas masks, and there is no problem with white phosphoroxin. And, one more point. ”

There was a hint of cunning on her face.

"The soldiers in the trench fortifications usually do not show their heads in the trenches, and it will be difficult for the enemy to estimate the number of people in our trenches, so that they can set up suspicious formations, and the enemy will not dare to attack easily again.

In addition, the trenches were crisscrossed and the undulating terrain was very unfavorable for the cavalry to run quickly, and it would be impossible for the enemy to use the cavalry to break out in reverse. ”

Qian Nawei looked at everyone again, her gaze determined.

"My idea is to let the front-line soldiers dig trenches to prevent enemy artillery bombardment, and then set up obstacles in the open space in front of the trenches, and when the enemy runs out of food and grass or even mutiny, our army will attack on all fronts and defeat them in one fell swoop."

Qian Nawei looked at everyone and asked with a smile.

"How?"

The officers glanced at each other and exchanged words......

A few seconds later, many officers looked at Qian Nawei and nodded their heads.

"The last will think it is feasible."

"What the boss said makes sense, and we agree."

"His Royal Highness Prince Wei is right, it is indeed ......"

Seeing that everyone agreed, Qian Nawei got up and issued an order.

"The order was given to the air force to bombard the mountains and forests south of Xilu City again with high-explosive bombs, ploughing all the ground 30 miles south of Xilu City, and arranging positions on the left flank 20 miles.

The forward soldiers were to build fortifications and dig trenches in strict accordance with the drawings, and the 2nd Infantry Corps was to set up defensive positions on the right flank, and like the 1st Infantry Corps, all forward soldiers were not allowed to camp in tents and spend the night in the trenches. ”

"Yes, the last general obeys!"

All the senior officers stood up and responded in solemnity.

At the end of the military meeting, Qiannawei went to the palace of Xilu City and found a chic room as her exclusive bedroom, while the other senior officers returned to their own units to convey Qiannawei's orders.

Time passed, and it was soon afternoon.

Xilu City, south of the mountains and forests.

In the sky, the huge White Eagle 36 heavy bombers rumbled past in a triangular formation, and in the process of flying, they opened the bomb bay hatch under the belly of the aircraft and dropped huge aerial bombs one after another.

"Bang bang bang ......!"

The earth trembled violently, and the mud and rocks splashed up were dozens of meters high, even if they were more than ten miles away, the human color could be clearly seen by the naked eye.

A large number of trees fell, dirt and sand were blown away, and the ground became loose.

The smoke filled the air, and the sun darkened.

Massive bombardment of the Wuhun Empire...... Here we go again!

The bombardment lasted for a whole day, and after a day, a large number of infantry troops of the Wuhun Empire rode in trucks, pulled artillery, and marched southward, until twenty miles away, and then stopped.

It makes sense for Qian Nawei to choose a distance of twenty miles, the artillery invented by Qian Fei'er has a maximum range of seventeen or eighteen miles, and the distance of twenty miles can avoid the headquarters in Xilu City being shelled by Tang San and others.

South of Xilu City, twenty miles away on a hillside, in the afternoon.

A large number of Wuhun Empire infantry wielded shovels, shovel by spade, digging the ground and shoveling the dirt to the south.

One after another winding trenches were dug, and longitudinally there were traffic trenches in the shape of "patrol".

Such a communication trench can not only keep the front and rear trenches in contact, but also prevent the enemy from seeing the back of the soldiers when moving, killing two birds with one stone.

Because considering that Tang San and the others may have mastered the use of artillery, this time, Qian Nawei did not put the artillery at the forefront of the first line, but six miles away from the front line!

At such a distance, if Tang San and the others led the army to attack, there would be no way to capture the artillery again, because it was out of sight, and it would not be able to pose a threat to the artillery troops.

So, will Tang San and the others deduce the direction of the artillery to strike according to the trajectory of the shell?

Qian Nawei believes that this is very unrealistic and basically impossible.

The velocity of artillery guns is hundreds of meters per second, far exceeding the speed of sound.

At such a speed, the human eye can't see clearly at all, how can you distinguish it? In addition to being able to guess the general direction, the specific location, distance, etc., are not known.

Such a situation can cause the artillery of the Martial Spirit Empire to fire at the Star Luo Empire's army on the high ground on the top of the mountain, annihilating its living force.

As for the coordination between the rear artillery and the forward infantry army, Qian Nawei asked people to pull a few telephone lines separately and equip them with direct telephones for communication.

On the northern slope of the frontier, she also stipulated that all soldiers must dig the ground into "terraces".

The flat part of the terraces is used for the command of the forward company and the thousand-man regiment, if Tang San captures, the terraces with a certain height difference can greatly slow down the cavalry charge, and there is also a certain obstacle to the advance of the infantry army.

Of course, such an obstacle also has for the soldiers of the Wuhun Empire, but the soldiers of the Wuhun Empire are the active party, holding the divine arm crossbow, shooting while retreating, and the speed is not fast, which is equivalent to having no effect.

The fortifications were dug up, and some flying soul masters carried large boxes and flew in the open space in front of the trenches.

They open the crate and let some of the contents of the crate fall to the ground as they fly.

These are large and small metal objects, all triangular, one large and one small, each foot is very sharp, but not sharp.

These sharp horns are covered with rust with a hint of red.

If Qian Linjue is here, she will be surprised, isn't this thistle terrestris?

Yes, it is a large-scale military secret weapon, the thistle!

Because it is a large-scale military, the thistle terrestris of the Wuhun Empire is quite rough, it is just a simple four iron horns, three of which fall to the ground and are used to lay flat.

A horn protrudes upwards, and if a man or a horse steps on it, it will be pierced through the center of the foot.

The iron thistle terrestris on the ground is divided into two sizes, which are intricately mixed together, among them, the large iron thistle terrestris is about three inches long at each corner.

Of course, this is used to tie the horse's legs, and the horse's hooves themselves are quite thick cuticles, like human fingernails, and if the thistle terrestris is not big enough and the horns are not long enough, it cannot cause damage to the war horse.

The other small tribulus terrestris is only about an inch and a half per corner.

This is used to pierce people, and the length of one and a half inches is enough to pierce the sole of the shoe and pierce the center of the foot, and if you step on it, you will definitely have to stop because of the excruciating pain.

In the sky, many Martial Spirit Empire Flying Soul Masters were busy flying back and forth, scattering all the thistles in front of the fortifications.

It was also at this time that to the south of Xilu City, dozens of miles away, in the mountains and forests near a city called "Jiacheng", Dai Mubai was also discussing countermeasures with Tang San and others.

The military camp of the Star Luo Empire, the big tent of the Chinese army.

Dai Mubai sat in the first place, he looked at Yu Linglong, and then looked at Tang San.

"Seventh sister, junior, we have avoided the large-scale air raid and bombardment of the Wuhun Empire, what should we do next?"

Inside the tent, Tang San and Yu Linglong looked at each other, and then they both nodded.

Yu Linglong turned to Dai Mubai, and a pleasant voice sounded in the tent.

"Brother Dai, my personal opinion is that although we have captured a few artillery pieces of the Wuhun Empire now, we still can't compete with the Wuhun Empire on the frontal battlefield, and we should continue to focus on guerrillas, ambushes, and harassment......

Dai Mubai nodded very approvingly, Yu Linglong's opinion was completely consistent with what he thought in his heart.

In the camp tent, Yu Linglong wanted to continue, but at this moment, the camp tent curtain suddenly opened, and a soldier hurriedly ran in.

"Report to the boss! I ......"

The soldier's face was a little embarrassed, his face was still a little sweaty, and he was a little frightened when he saw Dai Mubai, and lowered his head.

Yu Linglong was interrupted by the soldier, and her face was displeased.

In the first place, Dai Mubai's brows furrowed, he looked at the soldier and snorted.

"Don't you see that we're having a military meeting? What's the matter with you? Hurry up. ”

The entrance of Dai Mubai's tent is guarded by the direct soul master of the White Tiger Sect, under normal circumstances, there is no emergency, and the guards will not let the soldiers enter during the military meeting.

The soldier glanced at the many senior officers around him, as well as Tang San and the others, gritted his teeth, and hugged Dai Mubai.

"Boss Qiqi, our logistics department has not delivered grain and grass for many days, and we don't have much food left, and we will run out of food if we last for more than ten days at most!"

"What?!"

Dai Mubai stood up suddenly, his evil eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief.

In the first place, the avalanche waist wore a golden knife, and his brows were slightly furrowed.

"Prince Mubai, could it be that the Martial Spirit Empire attacked our army's food supply line? Our army's transportation and supply routes are far away, stretching for hundreds of miles, and there is a great possibility that the Wuhun Empire will sneak attack the logistics grain and grass. ”

On the other side, Tang San immediately retorted.

"This is impossible, I have arranged for the Tang Gate Flying Department Soul Master to monitor our army's logistics supply line at all times, if the grain transportation line is attacked, they will inform me as soon as possible, it is impossible that there will be no movement at all."

Tang San stepped down, the rat whiskers on Ma Hongjun's face trembled, and he spoke casually.

"Third brother, could it be that the Martial Spirit Empire has gone around behind the flying soul master who is in charge of monitoring? The Douluo Continent is so big, who knows if it's not. ”

Ma Hongjun's words were just said casually, and he hadn't thought about it seriously at all, but when this sentence was heard in Tang San's ears, it made Tang San's brows furrow deeply.

What Hong Jun said was not unreasonable, if the Martial Spirit Empire went farther away, it could indeed avoid the flying soul master and attack the grain transportation route......

It's just that......

Tang San's eyes turned to the side.

If the grain line was attacked, why was there no news at all? If the other party burned the grain and grass, someone should come to report the news, but now there is no news at all......
