The British army's attempt to recapture the beachhead can be described as a succession. The people in the front row fell, and the people in the back continued to follow.

All the British troops are attacking frantically.

Unfortunately, the powerful artillery fire of the Ming Dynasty always tore the attacking British troops to pieces.

Everywhere there were crumbling corpses, everywhere there was broken equipment of the British army.

Even the veteran British commander Douglas, who was no longer sensitive to casualty figures. Haig, seeing this kind of scene, is also shocked.

The battle for the beachhead lasted a whole day. In just one day, the British lost 50,000 men.

By the time it got dark, the British offensive stopped.

Because, I really can't move.

Near the beachhead, all the troops that could be requisitioned were requisitioned. Even the civilian staff, the cooking class, and the grooms who pulled the logistics were filled in.

But in the end, ......!

The British had nothing but cold casualty figures and corpses in one place.

The Germans were so happy that for the first time they had experienced the insane artillery support of the Ming Dynasty.

A single salvo from an arsenal ship can turn the front of the position into a sea of fire. Everyone believed that there would be no living creatures on the surface of the earth beneath this sea of fire.

The result was similar to what they had guessed, the British army, which had just been densely packed, was now all charred black corpses.

I can't imagine that just last year, Germany was still an enemy of the Ming Dynasty. The two sides are desperately facing each other in Smolensk!

If there is still a confrontation, it may not be the British who will be covered by artillery fire, but the Germans.

No one wants to be like a roast chicken, even for the sake of the noble ideal of the motherland. The German soldiers did have a tradition of iron and blood, but they were not stupid.

On the contrary, the Germans are actually very smart. It's just that the education he received since he was a child has made him accustomed to obedience.

The Prussian way of education shines brightly in them.

It was not until the evening that the front finally stopped. Li Xiu also breathed a sigh of relief, and finally landed on it.

In just one day, 57,000 people have been sent to the beach.

The beachhead, too, extends seven kilometers forward.

Dover is not far from London, just over a hundred kilometres if you just count the straight-line distance on the map.

For the Ming army, this is nothing more than a matter of a tank kicking the accelerator. But for the Germans, it was a long and brutal march.

One can imagine, with the momentum that Britain is showing today. They will definitely snipe the Germans desperately on the road, and the price paid for this trip to London will be unprecedented.

The Germans were also prepared for this, so they did not blindly expand the beachhead. Instead, they sent troops to seize the nearby port of Dover.

epzw/html/103/103376/"Deceived Kangxi"

It is said to be a port, but it is actually a wharf where fishing boats can be parked.

Fishing boats or yachts are parked here. A ship of a thousand tons in tonnage is a behemoth here.

No way, only such a small pier.

So, at night, airships become the main means of transportation again.

Airships transported the supplies needed by the German army from Canada to the beach front line and replenished the soldiers on the front line.

At midnight, the German airship was about to land in the port of Dover with a pod full of cargo.

Suddenly, a long whip of red flame appeared in the sky.

The whip seemed to be in the giant's hand, and he was shaking it vigorously.

A series of bullets hit the airship airbag, and the entire side of the airship airbag was torn open with a ten-meter-long hole.

Although these openings are made up of small openings.

But the high-pressure gas in the airbag spews out along these small openings. In an instant, the small mouth was swollen into a large mouth.

The ten-meter-long large mouth will be consumed in an instant.

Seeing the huge airbag of the airship, it was visibly deflated to the naked eye. Then, the pod, which is full of goods, falls straight to the ground in a free-falling position.

The cargo of this pod is still ammunition.

The pod fell to the ground and immediately caused a huge explosion.

The flames of the explosion were extremely dazzling in the night sky.

Even, the firelight illuminated several airships in the sky.

"It's the British airship, anti-aircraft guns! Antiaircraft gun! "Sharp-eyed, see the huge English lion insignia on the airship's airbags.

The German anti-aircraft artillery also reacted quickly, but now there are many airships in the sky, and judging the target has become a problem.

It was dark and wintery, and God knows which airships were German, and those airships were British.

Several flares rose into the air, but alas, the flares were fired at a limited height.

By the light of the flares, the German soldiers noticed that there was an airship on the heights. However, because of the high reason, it is not clear which are German airships and which are British airships.

Thanks to the production line exported by Daming, the airships made by the entire European countries are almost the same.

Even, even the style of the airbag is the same, and people who are not familiar with the inside story can't see any clues at all.

Now that the ills are showing, there is no way to distinguish friend from foe.

The airships in the sky are also very happy, and what often happens is that the gunners of the airships shoot at each other.

Sometimes it is not clear which one is German and which is British. Anyway, see which airship fires. They swept away the firing airship.

knocked out the opponent's airship and watched the airship plummet with flames and smoke plummeting. On the other hand, the airship that had been waiting for a long time and didn't know which country also made a move.

This kind of operation is no different from queuing up to be shot.

The German anti-aircraft artillery soldiers watched the airships in the sky shoot each other in a daze, but there was nothing they could do.

Because they also couldn't figure out which ones were British airships and which ones were German airships.

By this time the battle had progressed, it was already complete chaos.

For every airship that falls from the sky, several are loaded with ammunition that is urgently needed on the front line, especially mortar shells.

But now it's okay, the shells have turned into bombs and are falling from the sky.

Especially after the explosion, mortar shells were burst out. It's like a bullet!

Countless shells exploded, killing and wounding many German soldiers.

Even many German troops, for the first time, disobeyed the orders of their superiors and hid in the trenches and pretended to die.

The British army actually dispatched airships to fight airships, which no one could have imagined beforehand. Because everyone is in the sky, and the airship is slow and too cumbersome.

Attacking an airship with an airship, although it can be successfully attacked in a moment's time, as long as it is discovered, it will be immediately knocked down.

No way, you can see each other, and the other person can see you.
