Chapter 368: Shelling

Late at night. [Full text reading]

Outside Mara City. Speaker Gasayer, 2nd Cavalry Commander Sir Vladimi, and Priest Iyar quietly probed the damaged walls.

The priest was dressed in a beautiful black robe, and his pale hands picked up the dirt and sniffed hard.

Gasaye and Vladimi looked at him nervously.

"There is no trace of witchcraft." The priest reluctantly came to a conclusion. This means that the walls of his blessing were destroyed by brute force. A defeat in a confrontation.

Vlakimi's heart trembled, like a little girl about to be forcibly interacted with, and asked, "Is it a knight?" ”

"Maybe."

The chief priest thought to himself, it must be a powerful knight of divine arts. The blessing spell of this city wall is carried out according to the resistance standard of the two magic knights,

What he couldn't figure out was what the heavy cavalry in eyewitness descriptions was of use and what they had brought out, was it a sacrifice?

The more he thought about it, the more entangled he became, and his brows were beaten into the word "卅".

There are explosives in the Western Continent, and alchemists often produce weapons that are not inferior to nitroglycerin, and in those temple battles, race wars, trebuchets, ballistae and other equipment will increase their power as much as possible, but in terms of quantity, even explosives of the size of a beast cannot destroy a third of the city wall.

This made the main priest's mind quickly turn to the divine arts.

He began to recall the old knights who had retired from the battlefield, but were still alive.

Hundreds of years ago, powerful magic was still popular on the continent for a while.

The gentlemen of the Western Continent cannot understand the explosive power of 1 ton of high explosives at the exact location, and its core significance lies in the exact location and simultaneous detonation. It sounds simple, but it's actually quite high-end, and the exact location requires a deep understanding of engineering, as well as adequate reconnaissance and preparation. Detonating at the same time is enough for 1 kilogram of high explosives, but it is very difficult for 1 ton of safe explosives.

If it weren't for the "knowledge solvent" and the teaching of special veterans, the gentlemen of Xijiang Water Village would not have needed it.

Isar couldn't understand such a simple and profound, like gentlemen on Earth, who couldn't understand how humans exist in 100 meters and 6 seconds.

Although the guys in the Policy Research Office are not good at even the simplest staff work, they are not completely unlearned, they studied with Shi Nengren and others for three days, and the 7 points selected are all the support points of the city wall structure, and any blasting is always stronger than the magic of ordinary magic knights, and it is much bigger.

Of course, 1 ton of high explosives must not be as good as other people's powerful divine arts, this is also the place where the main priest is suspicious, and powerful divine arts are no longer popular in the Western Continent today. The slightly higher fortresses are blessed by the Great Sacrifice, which is a work done through thousands of years of accumulation. That is, an old city fortress like Mara City, will be blessed by him as a priest.

"Can you tell which temple it is?" Gasaye asked wistfully. The Divine Knight is the ultimate weapon of the temple and the city-state, and everyone who qualifies for the promotion of the Divine Knight is concerned by all parties, and the well-trained priest can judge its origin according to the clues on the battlefield.

The priest disappointed them again, but comforted them: "Their cannon, not a ballista cannon, is very powerful, I was not present at the time, maybe it was too many attacks that damaged the effect of the blessing, and it was finally destroyed by a knight with a fighting skill level 9, it is also possible." ”

"Not a knight of the arts, too...... That's it. Speaker Gasayh smiled incoherently.

"I just said maybe." The main priest immediately organized his smile and said, "It could be a knight of magic, it might not be, I can't be sure." ”

The Speaker's laughter stopped.

Mara City cannot be pitted against a knight of the arts. Even if they had ever appeared as a knight of the gods, they were first absorbed by the temple.

As for seeking the help of the temple...... Gasaya looked at the priest and thought to himself: if a knight of the gods appeared now, Iyar might kneel down and beg him to join the temple of the dragon, just like the one he likes to do with his male pets.

Recruit a Divine Knight before the Temple Wars begin?

The High Priest is eligible for the commendation!

"Let's go back." The priest dug a little dirt and said, "Don't worry, maybe it's the sacrifice of alchemy, the result of some temple knights' forcible work." ”

It just expresses the previous words in another way, and it doesn't make any sense.

Sir and Grand Sir returned to the city sullenly, and Gasaya grabbed the priest and said, "If anyone asks about you, you must say that it may be the damage caused by the sacrifice of a knight of level 9 fighting skills. ”

Along with his words, there were 500 snail shells, a big bag that weighed so much.

The priest happily picked it up and left, and Gasayah depressedly went to report to the senators, and the nobles waited for him to say something nice.

At noon the next day, the shelling organized by Li Changning began.

The inhabitants of Mara City should be glad that the "Jiangning people" did not have the firepower of the war, the mortar played a limited role in the massacre, and even more so for the knights, plus its accuracy and speed were closely related to the training of the soldiers, and in the priority list, it was in demand at a level of C, which was lower than the B grade of Coke, lower than the B- of beer, and even lower than the C+ grade of TV discs.

This time a total of 6 tanks carried out shè firing a base 34 shells.

Four of them are full members of the tank company, and the other two are cadet tanks in training. Qin Dajiang is also one of them.

If you don't look at their numbers, Li Changning can't tell which four are tank companies, and they are all about the same level. Hu Yang fired more than 30 shells, while Qin Dajiang fired thousands of rounds of "big poisonous snakes" and more than 10 rounds of Milan, the only thing that needs to be studied carefully is the fire control system, and the aiming and ranging integration in the late stage of World War II is quite simple.

The shelling lasted 2 hours, and when it came back, there was a problem with the balance wheels of one of the cars. This frightened Li Changning, who was watching.

In their opinion, the loss of a tank is a terrible sin. The thinking of a Chinese-style officer is roughly like this, he is diligent and thrifty, and he cares about everything except the soldiers.

Sun Ruihe was more familiar with this, and when he heard about it, he rushed over and said, "It's okay, it's normal for the tank to break, just fix it." ”

Li Changning pouted and said, "It's within the range of other people's attacks." ”

"Why do you drive so close!" Sun Ruihe's words of blame blurted out.

Li Changning said with an embarrassed face: "It's not a horse-drawn man who wants to sweep shè and repair the city wall." ”

There are three machine guns on the Type 59, and the 12.7 on the top is used against the air, and it is not convenient to climb out to fight. The 7.62 mm on both sides can only be regarded as a general-purpose machine gun, and it is difficult to hit accurately if it is not close to the 1000-meter range.

"Come two people, come with me." Due to the needs of his work, Sun Ruihe does not know how to use tank guns, but he can drive tanks and repair tanks.

The two veterans who followed Sun Ruihe closely glanced at each other and got into the armored car with the toolbox.

Sun Ruihe actually wanted to directly lead the tank company, although this is not as high as the level of the command position, but he has actual power in his hands.

Now is the time to show his prowess.

No one dared to climb out of the tank at this distance, including the injured tank, it was looking for death. Sun Ruihe was different, he moved the armored car to the side of the tank, naturally forming a barrier, and then got off the car from the left side, and he could directly inspect and repair the damaged part.

The soldiers in Mara City were extremely worried that the armored car would enter the city, and they all nervously called the temple knights, who knew that Sun Ruihe would withdraw after repairing the tank, and no one would stop him.

Hu Yang, who retreated halfway and came back, looked behind worriedly, but did not find Chen Yi's figure, and was a little relieved.

However, on the evening of returning to Xijiang Water Village, Hu Yang received a notice from the Policy Research Office: "Selected to be sent to the Chen Martial Arts Hall in the Western Continent for further study, and Sun Ruihe will also be responsible for the tank company." ”

The veterans had all stayed in the outer hall of the Chen Martial Arts Hall, and they didn't know what to say.

This is like going to a party school, the immediate benefits are lost, and whether it will be good or not in the future depends on the opportunity. For now, it is not cost-effective to lose the position of a tank company in a large development.

Hu Yang reluctantly left, Sun Ruihe happily went to work, he understood the significance of the tank company better than the new veterans, so his primary goal was to expand training, expand the tank company, so as to completely master the armored forces of the Western Continent.

He was the one who was qualified to see the list of supplies, and knew that Chen Yi had an entire tank battalion of equipment, and maybe nòng more, which was much more powerful than a few heavy machine gun squads. If a few hundred tank crews can be trained, the armored forces may have mechanized infantry. Sun Ruihe knows Chen Yi's habits, as long as there are people, there will be officials, and the Western Continent is a barren continent to be cultivated, and its own strength determines the composition of power.

At the same time, there were also several early batches of students who were selected to send Chen's Martial Arts Hall West Continent Branch, especially the members of the capital construction team, who were particularly fond of going to the school. The wind and rain on the construction site, although they supported the slaves and indigenous workers to work, the environment was not good enough after all, and they all hoped to further improve their ranks through a martial arts gym study, just like the martial arts gym on the earth.

The next day, the attack was carried out by an indigenous company, including a rare god shè hand in the army. The tank company underwent a simple rearmament and did not participate in the shelling. Sun Ruihe selected 8 people to form two capable tanks, so as to ensure more than 4 aimed shots per minute. The remaining 2 tanks followed the fire, which was a simple net of fire.

On the third day, Sun Ruihe took his newly reorganized tank company to the battlefield, and carried out artillery bombardment between the marches, focusing on knocking out the watchtowers between the mountains on both sides.

The bombardment greatly shocked the nobles in the towers of the city. The great power of the tank made the nobles who had seen the Earth Dragon Knight feel dangerous.

Fladimi could no longer suppress the calls of the surrender faction in the city, and acquiesced in the Speaker's dispatch of the envoy Muse to the Xijiang Water Village to negotiate.
