Chapter 126: The Master of the Belly (2)

The landing of the Ming army was like to be carried out at night.

Especially in the early hours of the morning, when it is close to dawn, because this is the time when it is easiest to succeed in a sneak attack.

The Ottomans did not follow the usual path, and their attack was launched at seven o'clock in the morning.

By this time, it was already dawn.

Everything is exposed to the rising sun.

The weather was nice today, just a little windy. Many naval officers and sailors were accidentally blown into the sea with their hats.

Li Xiao held the telescope and stood on top of the Yanshan.

The sea breeze blew his hair a little scattered!

I haven't had a haircut in over a month, and my hair is a little long.

Artillery roared in the distance, and the Ming army again launched an artillery bombardment of the ruined Sevastopol.

Although everyone thought it was a waste of shells, it was shelled at the request of the Ottoman Empire.

This time the shelling used a lot of smoke bombs.

After a full hour of fighting, the whole of Sevastopol was shrouded in a layer of smoke that could not be dispersed for a long time.

"If I knew this, I might as well bomb it with chlorine. That thing is powerful, it is heavy, and the wind blows and walks against the ground. ”

Li Xiu put down the binoculars and was very dissatisfied with the lack of chlorine bombs.

The Navy was fully aware of the lethality of chlorine bombs, but had never tried the power of chlorine bombs themselves.

In the vast sea, ships are moving.

There is no way to use chlorine bombs!

Precisely because there is no danger of being attacked by chlorine bombs, the navy uses chlorine bombs with the most brazenness.

Even the Navy's 480-mm guns are equipped with chlorine shells.

"Don't talk nonsense!

This is not your navy, they are going to land.

If the wind suddenly changes, the people on the beach will be smoked to death.

The French just had the confidence to be confused, and in the end they were deflated in the Battle of Tsaritsyn. ”

Li Xiao glanced at Li Xiu angrily.

With the lessons of the Battle of Tsaritsyn, those troops who fought and died in Russia have rarely used chlorine bombs.

Because this thing is so unstable, it's easy to eat yourself when the wind direction changes.

Unless it is used in large fortifications, or when the entrance to underground fortifications is blocked.

That's how a lot of chlorine gas is poured in!

The people in the fortifications and underground bunkers were miserable, and many of them were so suffocated that they scratched their faces.

Many times, when cleaning the battlefield, I don't even look inside. Take the cement directly and put the entrance to the matter!

Only the Ming people will persistently get out the horrific corpses, and after incineration, they will be labeled and sent back to China.

The Russians did not understand what the Ming people did, why they should pay a high price for those corpses.

However, they did like the silver coins of the Ming people.

Although this job is a bit unlucky, people give enough money.

For the sake of money, I will be more respectful to those dead.

Not to be thrown around like sacks.

The hum of airplanes can be heard in the sky!

Li Xiao raised his head and watched the silver war eagle fly across the sky.

"Those people at the Jinzhou Institute of Electronics don't work just for food, and they spend a lot of money, and they haven't studied the radio you mentioned until now.

If we don't study it out, our navy won't invest money.

Damn, it's like taking money for a while.

I can't even hear a fucking sound! ”

Seeing the busy planes flying around in the sky, Li Xiu had the urge to scold his mother.

Obviously, there is already a prototype of the original machine, and it can already transmit sound one or two hundred kilometers away.

Can......!

But that thing was so fucking big, it weighed five hundred kilograms alone.

Moreover, the power cannot be cut off yet.

The power consumption is simply outrageous.

The power consumption alone is impossible to equip on an airship.

"Scientific research is a thing of great luck.

Now that we have a direction, the next step is miniaturization and power saving.

It's only been a little over a year, how can there be such a big melee combat.

Give them more time, and the wireless communication between the plane and the ship on the ground will be realized sooner or later.

It's just that we'll have to wait a while.

Isn't it already used on your warship? ”

Li Xiao didn't care, the navy didn't invest much money in this project.

The big head is still from the army!

This is related to the question of who will be equipped first after the finished product in the future.

As long as the money is paid, the first batch of things will naturally be equipped first.

"Humph! There is also only a transmitter installed on Mount Kunlun, which can transmit orders to the whole fleet.

The rest, all that is installed, is the receiver.

As soon as the machine is turned on, the lights of the whole ship are flashing.

Some places that are not important, simply have to turn off the lights.

The whole ship has such a treasure, and from time to time it is fucking bad. Li Xiu was full of resentment about backward radio technology.

If Li Xiao told him that one day the radio transmitter reached the point where almost everyone had one in their hands, it is estimated that this guy would immediately invest in the research of a time machine.

"If it is useful, make do with it first, and it is estimated that it will be able to be studied in the next few years." Li Xiao could only comfort this anxious naval commander.

"I don't know if it's going to be the Year of the Monkey, anyway! I don't think it's necessary to end the war. Li Xiu shook his head and raised the telescope again.

Under the cover of smoke, the Ottoman army began to land.

I have to say that Sabellehei still has two hits.

These Ottoman soldiers were obviously trained by the Ming army. Even the tactics of the landing are exactly the same!

Assault boats rushed to the beach, and small gunboats fired at close range.

A destroyer with a hundred and twenty mm naval guns, because of the shallow draft, can wander along the coastline.

Shells hit the Hebrew positions one after another, and even the human bodies that were blown away could be seen through the telescope.

The artillery power of the Ming Navy has not yet been brought into full play.

At least, the 480-millimeter naval guns on the deck had not yet been fired.

The artillery on the Hebrew side also began to counterattack, but the artillery positions in the distance were shrouded in smoke.

The artillery fired at the beachhead was basically small infantry guns, or mortars.

Not only was the explosion not very powerful, but the shell fell into the sand and exploded, and the shrapnel was wrapped in the sand, and the power was sharply reduced by a few points.

Only a few dozen corpses remained on the beach, and more Ottoman soldiers were attacking the coastal defenses.

The Hebrews were not idle for ten years, and the coastal defense works in Sevastopol never stopped.

Along the coastline, a group of fortifications combining permanent and semi-permanent fortifications has been formed.

Rifle-machine-gun fire, forming a crossfire.

And between the fire points, there are underground roadways connected.

As before, the method of going directly into the trenches and driving the enemy along the trenches will not work at all.

What's even more headache is that this kind of reinforced concrete fortification can effectively resist artillery fire.

Some sturdy, 120-mm guns hit directly, and they just gnaw off a layer of skin.

"The Ottomans are in trouble, they want to conquer this kind of bunker one by one, without throwing down tens of thousands of corpses, don't even think about it."

Under Li Xiu's order, the Kunlun Mountain moved forward a few hundred meters away.

That's pretty much the limit!

The battleship had too deep a draft, and there was a danger of running aground if it leaned any further.

On the bridge, a row of high-powered telescopes was sandwiched.

These telescopes are monocular, and they look somewhat like the ones that later generations used to look at the stars, but they are a little thicker than the ones that came later.

With the help of this thing, you can watch the Ottomans landing within ten kilometers.

The monarchs of this era are very different from later generations.

They will generally go to the front line to fight, more than ten years ago in the Battle of the Three Emperors. All the way to the Battle of Tsaritsyn!

Li Xiao, as the commander of the Ming Dynasty, and Napoleon, as the emperor of the French Empire, always insisted on commanding operations on the front line.

Although it is dozens or even hundreds of kilometers away from the front line, the morale boost is very strong for ordinary soldiers.

They will have the illusion that they are fighting side by side with the supreme leader.

Frederick did not go to the front, and that was because he was old.

In fact, Moltke's command post was sometimes only twenty or thirty kilometers from the front line.

At this distance, the cavalry that reported the news could quickly transmit information from the front line, which was convenient for them to command.

In contrast to other monarchs, Li Xiao and Napoleon were both genuinely war-loving people.

In their bones, they are more like soldiers than politicians.

This is not the first time that he has been on the front line with a telescope.

Li Xiao, Li Xiu, Li Lin, Zhao Liangdong, Chen Laohu and his party stood in a row on the Jianqiao of the Kunlun Mountain and began to observe the landing battle of the Ottomans.

The Hebrew fortifications were quite cleverly built!

These fortifications are attached to the ground, and the height is only about one meter at most.

As for the firing holes in the bunker, they are almost attached to the ground.

And behind the shooting holes, there are some semi-underground fortifications.

These places were used as mortar positions because of the principle of curved fire of mortars. The attacking Ottoman soldiers, these mortar positions could not be seen at all.

However, this could not be concealed from Li Xiao, who was experienced in the battlefield, and in the telescope, he judged the location of the mortar position through the smoke and dust from the mortar mouth.

It's a pity!

Those low-level officers of the Ottoman army simply did not have the military qualities they should have.

Machine guns, rifles, pressed them tightly to the ground.

The mortars were almost the same name, killing them one by one with shells.

Almost every explosion was accompanied by the death of one or more Ottoman soldiers.

It looks like about two companies of Ottoman soldiers should be cleared in an hour or two.

"That's not going to work! They're giving people heads! ”

Zhao Liangdong was so anxious that he jumped to his feet, but there was no way to do it.

Li Xiao has already said that today they only came with their eyes, not ears and mouths.

"Now you know, why our grassroots officers in the Ming Dynasty either graduated from military academies or chose from non-commissioned officers with outstanding achievements on the front line.

The quality of a grassroots officer determines the casualties of the company he leads. ”

Li Xiao's eyes leave the telescope, the monocular is not good at this point, one eye will be closed for a long time will be tired.

"Two battalions were sent up in the early stage, and if it continues like this, I estimate that it will be almost enough to hold on until noon."

Li Xiu looked at it for a while, and he was also a little tired.

touched his pocket, and the adjutant behind him immediately handed over Huazi.

Li Xiu struck a match and lit the cigarette!

Li Xiao has already smoked a cigar over there!

"Let the carrier-based aircraft be dispatched, they don't have any anti-aircraft guns anyway." Li Xiu asked, smoking a cigarette.

"Those pilots of yours, I wish they had met anti-aircraft guns." Li Xiao smiled.

Anti-aircraft guns are the thorn in the side of these pilots, and as long as they are discovered by these people, they will definitely be killed.

In fact, now the Hebrews don't have any anti-aircraft guns, and small-caliber anti-aircraft guns are basically wasting ammunition when they hit planes.

The 88 cannon is very powerful, but the problem is that the rate of fire is too slow.

Only a swarm of eight or eight guns can pose a threat to the fast-flying Stuka.

But if there is such an anti-aircraft artillery group, then the fire of 480 mm naval guns will be almost there.

Whether it's eight or eight hundred cannons, as long as it's targeted by this thing, it's basically a dead end.

The 480-millimeter shells were basically left alive within a radius of 100 meters.

What's more, Stuka can also drop high-explosive bombs in the sky.

The charge was more terrifying than a 480 mm howitzer.

If you go down to one piece, the damage radius will only be large, not small.

"Just watch the Ottomans end up like this? You see, another boat has gone up, and the Ottomans are really desperate. ”

Li Xiu glanced at the sea, and the second batch of landing troops did not wait in the slightest because the previous troops were suppressed.

It seems that Sablehei is going to fight this time.

"Just let your pilots play for a while, seriously, it's really hard to take out these bastards without aerial bombing."

Li Xiao looked at the smoke that was gradually dissipating in Sevastopol, and soon those howitzer positions were no longer decorations.

You know, the launch of the howitzer is based on the firing of the elements.

And there is no need for gunners to aim, and at this time their observation posts should also reach the front line.

At this time, smoke bombs into the city of Sevastopol will no longer stop them from firing.

Just right, let naval aviation deal with those artillery groups.

The Ottomans, who attacked the beach, were blocked, and the Ottomans, who attacked the port, suffered even more casualties.

The assault boat that landed was still on the surface of the sea when it came under fire from a 25-mm gun.

This artillery, which was originally used for air defense, once used in the defense of the beachhead, was simply a nightmare for the landing force.

Several assault boats were smashed into the sea by this ultra-high rate of fire anti-aircraft guns.

So much so that the first assault boats to land only reached half of the beach near the port.

The soldiers had just waded ashore in the icy waters, and before they could catch their breath, they were sifted into a sieve by the dense bullets of Makqin.

Some of those maks are hidden inside the containers.

Some were hidden in houses in the port, and some were simply disguised as port facilities.

So many Makqin suddenly opened fire, and the bullets hit more densely than rain.

For a time, the Ottoman landing force was strewn with corpses.

On the surface of the sea, one broken corpse after another floated, undulating with the waves.

The sea near the harbor was stained red with blood.

The scene was tragic for a while!
