Although they were reinforced by a squad of ground fighters, the combat effectiveness of these traversers trapped in Zibo was too unbearable, and the bigwigs in the war room in the green paint area made a not very optimistic prediction of the situation faced by the traversers in the area.

The first batch of reinforcements was led by Kong Heng, the platoon commander of the heavy engineer platoon, and Lu Xiangyang made such an arrangement with the idea of allowing Kong Heng to organize these crossing crowds to build fortifications to resist and wait for reinforcements. Judging from the current situation, it is not very reliable to let these rough embryos rely on their own ability to move closer to Yantai.

When the "Osprey" transport plane had just arrived at the scene of the battle between the new army of the Qing army and the crossing masses, the crude embryos that had just been transported had already reached the point where they were struggling to support themselves with the 60-mm mortars that came with the "Merkava" main battle tank. So much so that Xiong Bo had to drive the "Osprey" transport plane to open the rear hatch and use his own gun to strafe back and forth on the front of the Qing army and the new army several times without unloading reinforcements and ammunition, which created suitable conditions for his smooth landing.

"This Nima is especially braided and beaten with a main battle tank, and in the end, Lao Tzu has to open the rear hatch to do a part-time job as a helicopter gunship, you guys are too!" Xiong Bo landed on the landing field marked by the ground personnel with smoke grenades after the machine gunner at the rear hatch informed him that the ammunition had run out.

After being suppressed by the 7.62 mm machine gun in the rear hatch of the "Osprey" transport plane, the morale of these soldiers of the Qing Army New Army also turned from prosperity to decline, and the soldiers who were originally bewitched by the French adviser Lieutenant Henry's set of rushing over and being able to hide in the dead angle of the Great Song Dynasty's "mortar cannon" shooting theory had infinite fear of this monster with a huge body and constantly spitting tongues of fire at themselves!

Compared with the F-35B "Lightning" fighter that flashed by earlier, the "Osprey" transport plane, which was close enough to make enough noise and look bluffing, had a more obvious effect on the morale of the Qing army. After all, the tragic scene of "fat electricity" ravaging the artillery positions was not seen by these cannon fodder infantrymen with their own eyes.

But the 7.62 mm machine gun in the rear hatch of the "Osprey" transport plane on its head, and the scene of mercilessly shooting the Forces nouvelles infantry in a way that does not have dead ends is close at hand. The screams of their comrades, the scene of blood and severed limbs flying all over the field, are not at all what these former peasants, who also participated in the first battle, claim to endure.

After the Qing army retreated, Kong Heng could calmly organize personnel to strengthen the fortifications. However, Xiong Bo, who was returning home, radioed him with bad news - Lord Manchu was sending more troops to this area!

These Qing army reinforcements who rushed to a small hill in the Zibo area of the later generations from all directions were dressed differently and carried a variety of weapons, and I don't know where Li Bingheng magically made up so many Huazi soldiers for a while.

What made Kong Heng even more uneasy was that Xiong Bo found that Manchurian's artillery was moving towards the battle area in a dispersed manner, and he didn't know if it was because the F-35B's air raid earlier was not effective, or whether Li Bingheng, who was good at logistics, had specially conjured up a lot of artillery.

Originally, during the First Sino-Japanese War, the Qing army did not have an independent artillery system, and the Manchu people divided the infantry artillery into a company and battalion level according to the old tradition. So much so that in the battle with the footbasin chicken, the total number of empty artillery is greater than the opponent's advantage, but it is often set fire by the footbasin chicken into formed artillery in the battle, resulting in a lack of firepower.

After the end of the First Sino-Japanese War, the new army of the Qing army kept pace with the times and adopted the same independent artillery system as the Western armies.

"Our transport planes have discovered that the Qing army has broken their artillery into pieces, and it seems that we are going to spend some effort to build stronger fortifications." Kong Heng said to Zhang Zhiqiu.

"What? Even if the F-35's air attack effect is average, but we used the 'Merkava' 120 gun to eliminate several infantry guns of the Qing army! They dare to come when the range and accuracy of artillery are at an absolute disadvantage, isn't this a head-off? Zhang Zhiqiu said.

"Hmph, it's not all wine bags and rice bags over there, so soon I found out that using the artillery system of the foreigners to be tough with us would do more harm than good, and decisively went back to the old way!" Kong Heng had dealt with the Manchurians on the Liaodong Peninsula a long time ago, and he knew the old routines of the Qing army very well.

"Holy, that's a problem! Now we are in the same situation as Eagle Sauce in Afghanistan and Iraq! This Nima is so hidden with an infantry cannon, you don't know when it will give you a cold cannon, no one can stand it! Zhang Zhiqiu finally understood the seriousness of the matter.

Xiong Bo's discovery made Zhang Zhiqiu's previous circular fortifications that had cost a lot of manpower and material resources to build immediately become a "tofu scum" project, and these fortifications designed to resist the attack of small arms obviously could no longer provide effective and safe shelter for the traversers.

Given that the Crossing Crowd had touted the technology of using triangulation to improve the accuracy of artillery long-range fire a year earlier, Kong Heng was not sure whether the Manchu New Army, who had hired foreign instructors, had also mastered the technology. If these New Army artillerymen really bombard them with those small-caliber infantry guns as a reduced-range version of howitzers, it will be really fun!

Kong Heng did not dare to despise the imagination and creativity of the Chinese people, and those craftsmen in ancient times also came up with many things with a level of craftsmanship that was not worse than that of modern products in the case of backward equipment, which shows that the intelligence of the ancient Chinese people was not low. Anyway, this triangulation method is based on the Pythagorean theorem discovered by the ancients, and you really don't dare to bet that the artillery of the adults will not do that!

"Let's make a cocoon and tie ourselves, dig anti-artillery fortifications, before the fuel, ammunition and combat personnel are not in order, we still have to spend a while here, just the poor air capacity in the green paint area, hey, it's all tears when you talk too much!" Kong Heng said.

Fortunately, the "director team" also sent an armored repair vehicle, otherwise they would have relied purely on sapper shovels to dig anti-artillery fortifications, and these well-pampered city men and women estimated that when the shells of the adults fell, they could not dig enough pits to bury themselves!

The Provisional Executive Committee regarded the professional and technical personnel who were sent to Shandong this time as a matter of heart, and instructed Kong Heng to make every effort to ensure the safety of these personnel.

After the first civil engineering anti-artillery bunker was built, Chen Fa'er and the ground crew girls who didn't have time to transfer were driven in. Even when the bunker was not built, they were left crammed into the troop carrier of Merkava 4.

BB63 doesn't even have a place to scrape barnacles, and the ground crew in the green paint area has always been a coffee table full of cups, once these girls are a little missing, Kong Heng is afraid that he will not even hide in the tent of the heavy engineer platoon around the blast wall to avoid the typhoon, and it will not be able to escape the rough embryo's call to punish him.

In this turquoise, which is framed with pine wood and covered with mud, the rough embryos also made a simple rocket stove to warm the girls and cook hot food. Chen Fa'er's force value is close to zero, and he is also willing to do logistics such as cooking. The beef that had been roasted by her hands yesterday was so old that almost all of them couldn't chew it, and now that there was a stove and no need for lights, Chen Fa'er decided to stew a small pot of thick soup with beef jerky and radishes that the rough embryos had found out of nowhere.
