The range of the artillery of the Wu army has exceeded imagination!

According to the current minimum estimate, the Ming army had at least 300 heavy artillery pieces with a range of more than 17 miles!

War is not a simple numbers game, but everyone knows what it means!

This means death, it means that on this way of charging, the suppression of artillery fire is not proportional at all, which means that these two miles will become a river of blood!

The tactics of the Crusaders were not wrong, and the reason why they wanted to put the artillery positions at the front was to put it bluntly, they intended to suppress it with artillery bombardment, so as to clear the way for the Crusaders to charge.

But because of the tactical miscalculation, the Crusaders soon paid a terrible price for their miscalculation!

The target of the 300 latest ultra-long-range howitzers was itself the artillery array of the Crusaders, so in an instant 300 howitzer shells blossomed in the Crusader artillery array, and one artillery gun was overturned and blown into rotten iron, and the artillery that was loading the artillery was being loaded with ammunition, and the artillery that was preparing to open the way for the stormtroopers was turned on their backs.

Shells that could not reach the artillery positions whizzed into the Crusader forward armies that were charging on three sides, and began to harvest lives in a frenzy.

The neat Macedonian phalanx of the charging crusaders was torn apart almost instantly, and the blood and fire were intertwined, rendering the originally peaceful Rhine River into a purgatory on earth!

In the battlefield dominated by cold weapons, the power of artillery was vividly displayed at this moment, and the artillery positions of the Crusaders, thousands of artillery pieces, only a few dozen artillery pieces roared, and they exploded lonely, and then they were completely drowned in the rain of bullets.

The ammunition of the Wu army is like no money, with the current military manufacturing capacity of the Wu Dynasty, it is not enough to form an assembly line, but it does not mean that the ammunition cannot be made, and even in the past few years, Zhu Houzhao has played with his life to produce bullets and shells, and its output has even exceeded that of the Ming Dynasty!

This is also because the lessons of the Battle of Andorra gave Zhu Houzhao a deep impression, you must know that before the Battle of Andorra, almost all the armaments of the Wu Dynasty came from the transportation of the Ming Dynasty, and every time he immigrated, Guhou would carry a large number of firearms and ammunition.

But after the outbreak of the battle, after a day of high-intensity bombing, Zhu Houzhao suddenly discovered that in just one day, forty percent of the artillery shells in the Wu Dynasty's reserves were consumed!

When night fell and the crusaders retreated, it was easy to see that if this high-intensity bombardment was to be maintained, the artillery shells in reserve would last only a day and a half at most!

However, on the first day, the Wu Dynasty used unexpected mine arrays and artillery bombardment, and paid tens of thousands of battle losses, and finally wiped out more than 100,000 crusaders......

If you continue to fight for two days according to this record......

Without firepower suppression, it is impossible to resist the Western European coalition army of more than one million with tens of thousands of troops alone, and then the Wu Dynasty will not be defeated, but will face slaughter!

What will happen to the two million Han people, hundreds of clans and nobles, without the protection of the army?

In order to retaliate, these magnates will inevitably be slaughtered, and the Han people will be regarded as slaves, and at that time, Zhu Houzhao will not have the face to flee back to the Ming Dynasty, and the only thing waiting for him is death!

He died, hundreds of powerful people were slaughtered, what will happen once the news reaches Daming?

I'm afraid that the shaking of the world is not enough to describe, no matter how tough Zhu Houwei's methods are, if he wants to transfer the domestic elite overseas, the effort and price will probably be ten times more than a hundred times!

In the past few years, Zhu Houzhao would be drenched in cold sweat every time he thought of the Battle of Andorra, if it were not for the night attack of the hot air balloon, which caused the rout of the Western European coalition army, and the Wu Dynasty army took advantage of the situation to cover up and continuously expand the results, the consequences would be unimaginable!

As an excellent military commander on the battlefield, although Comrade Zhu Houzhao was not familiar with the hot war, he could sum up after the war, so he found that the biggest problem was the lack of munitions!

So in the past few years, munitions factories have sprung up, and the growth of the number of artillery depends on the Ming Dynasty, but the ammunition is ......

Zhu Houzhao dared to pat his chest and guarantee that the current ammunition reserves of the Wu Dynasty were enough to support ten battles of Andorra!

The overwhelming shells were like meteors that constantly pierced the sky, and after three rounds of shelling, the Crusader artillery array had been destroyed! There was no half of the artillery that was lucky enough to be shattered......

No matter how strong the belief in the Lord is, in the face of this kind of heavenly power like the destruction of the world, the fear in people's hearts will be infinitely magnified, especially when they see their comrades-in-arms around them being killed one after another, blown to pieces, and there is not even a corpse, this fear will be magnified to the limit, until it is unbearable.

Believers can die, and they may not be afraid of death, but everyone hopes that their death can be valuable, even if it is only a little bit of value, but in the face of the artillery fire that the military army cannot resist at all, except for being blown into pieces, there is no value at all.

So the artillerymen of the crusaders did not hesitate to turn around and flee......

This seems to be the tradition of European soldiers, such as the best Italian soldiers of later generations!

In the face of the war, once the Italian soldiers on the battlefield are not thinking about killing the enemy, but about surrendering, whether they are strong or not, and how weak and vulnerable the enemy is, they want to surrender!

Why don't you accept surrender, fuck, beat until you accept surrender......

A glimpse of the whole panther is that he is extremely loyal to the faith of the Lord and is known as an elite Western European warrior......

Clement trembled all over, and it had only been a long time before the artillery array, which had been pinned on great hopes by Western Europe, was destroyed without the slightest strength to fight back under the artillery fire of the armed army!

What does it mean that the artillery emplacement is destroyed, Clement, the commander who is not a military idiot, knows too well, and it means that the hope that it was originally intended to be used to counter the long-range attack of the armed army is completely shattered!

Without remote assistance, then the Crusaders want to pass through the area of more than ten miles in front of the two armies, and it is not known how many soldiers are crushed!

Le Min looked high in the sky and saw the lookout soldiers on the hot air balloon constantly waving the flag in their hands, conveying the latest information on the battlefield to the below.

"The biography will be ordered! The enemy's artillery array has been destroyed, all the artillery men are free to bombard, non-stop bombardment, there is no order from the general, as long as the barrel is not blown up, who dares to slack off, military law is engaged! ”

As soon as this order came out, the Wujun artillery battalion went completely crazy!

All the artillerymen had completely lost the slightest thought in their minds, they only knew one thing, constantly stuffing shells into the barrels, and then lighting the fuse!

In just half an hour, the Wu Dynasty artillery array did not know how many shells had been poured on the crusaders, but all the artillery barrels had begun to turn red, so the artillery poured cold water on the cannon body that had been prepared long ago.

For a while, the white smoke of the Wu Dynasty artillery array was billowing out, like a fairyland......
