"It's been an hour! How's it going?"

In the artillery shelter behind the city wall of Hanshou Pass, listening to the sound of cannons outside, Ji Fa looked at the timer in his hand and asked the blue-faced general.

Every once in a while, he would ask the same question. It is true that the Xiqi Army has just trained a new army, and although its weapons and equipment are more advanced than those of the Chaoge army, it is far inferior to the Chaoge army in terms of experience and tactics.

"Second brother, now the artillery has suffered heavy losses, more than half of the casualties have been lost, and sixty percent of the artillery has been damaged. Most of the buildings in Guanzhong have basically been blown up, and the casualties of the infantry in Guanzhong are probably no less than 10,000."

Hearing this, the blue-faced general said helplessly.

In the case of coordinates, the artillery of both sides fired at each other, although Xiqi's artillery was more advanced than Chaoge's army, but the experience of artillery was much worse than Chaoge's artillery, and the accuracy was far less than Chaoge's army.

However, Chaoge's artillery positions were scattered, but they were relatively much denser, and after a confrontation, they lost sixty percent of their artillery and nearly half of their artillery casualties, while Chaoge's artillery losses were only two percent at most.

Ji Fa asked, "What about the position outside the city?"

The blue-faced general immediately said, "Second brother, the casualties in the positions outside the city are not large, and after the artillery of both sides fired, the enemy's firepower was mainly concentrated in the city. Less than half of the casualties in the positions outside the city were lost. The defenses of the positions were not damaged much."

Hearing this, Ji Fa nodded, this is relatively good news.

"Hide the rest of the cannons! The next battle can't be without artillery!"

Ji Fa said to the blue-faced general. If the artillery is destroyed, then in the next war, they can only be bombed.

——————————

"Wicked General, the enemy's artillery has been dumbfounded, have you launched an attack?"

At the rear command post of the Asaga's army, a general asked Dian.

Hearing this, Dian smiled and said, "Don't worry! Now that their artillery is silent, it's time to clear their forward positions! In this way, our boys will rush forward to be safe, and let the Second Artillery Unit pull out the secret weapon and clear the position in front of Hanshou Pass."

"Yes!" Hearing this, a general immediately received the order, pinched his fingers with both hands, and sent out a teleportation spell.

————————

"Finally stopped!"

"Come out quickly, the enemy may soon attack, and they will all go to their respective positions."

"Hurry up, come out and restore your defenses!"

On the position in front of Hanshou Pass, as the sound of artillery stopped, the soldiers hiding in the anti-artillery holes suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Then, under the shouts of the centurions and the commanders, they all ran out of the anti-artillery holes and returned to their respective positions to restore the defenses that had just been destroyed by the shelling.

"What is that in heaven?"

Just as the Xiqi soldiers were recovering their defenses, one of the soldiers suddenly pointed to the sky and shouted.

I saw that in the sky in the distance, white smoke clouds were flying straight and fast towards this side, the number was dense, and the tail of the smoke dragged out almost obscured the sky.

"Defend against the gun!"

Looking at the white tail of smoke in the sky, the centurion who had just commanded the soldiers to come out, the centurions suddenly shouted anxiously, although they couldn't see what it was, but they knew that it was definitely a dangerous thing.

Hearing the shout, the Xiqi soldiers who had just come out hurried to the anti-artillery hole again.

"Rumble······

A few seconds later, the tail of smoke in the sky began to fall on the position, and in an instant the earth trembled, and the sound of explosions that were more terrifying than before began to sound on the position, and a huge wave of fire began to sweep through the trenches, rolling up the barbed wire on the trenches. Fill in sections of trenches.

And this time, the anti-artillery hole also had no effect, and the falling smoke tail easily blew the earth into a large pit five meters deep and one or twenty meters wide, and there was a fire burning in the pit.

The violent explosion lasted two minutes before stopping, but the damage caused in those two minutes was even more terrifying than the shelling that had lasted for just two hours

Many.

When the explosion stopped, the position in front of Hanshou Pass had been destroyed, and there were burning fires and five-meter-deep pits everywhere, and a third of the dense trenches in the position had been filled.

"Rush!"

"Kill!"

When the explosion stopped, the earth-shattering shouts of killing also resounded, and I saw that in front of the scorched black position, countless Chaoge soldiers wearing black armor held their guns, and while shooting, they launched a charge towards the position of the Xiqi army.

"The enemy is attacking, defend, come out and defend!"

On the position of the Xiqi army, the centurions and commanders of Xincun shouted anxiously, driving the Xiqi soldiers out of the anti-artillery holes, holding guns and starting to shoot.

Dense bullets were coming and going.

However, although the automatic rifles in their hands had a fast rate of fire and a lot of bullets, they did not have much accuracy at a distance of 500 meters. Although the soldiers in the hands of Chaoge are single-shot rifles, they are all equipped with high-powered sights, and they also have a high accuracy at a distance of 500 meters.

For a while, I saw that the soldiers on the position of the Xiqi Army were constantly being shot by bullets and fell. The accurate bullets of the Chaoge army directly hit these Xiqi soldiers and couldn't raise their heads.

——————————

In the Xiqi command post behind the city wall of Hanshou Pass, listening to the louder rumbling explosions outside, feeling the trembling of the earth, followed by the incomparably dense gunfire.

Ji Fa's face suddenly changed again.

The blue-faced general hurriedly ran into the command post and said to Ji Fa, "Second brother! I'm afraid the positions outside the city won't last long! The enemy of Chaoge used a weapon that he had never seen before, and it took only half a cup of tea to inflict heavy casualties on the positions outside the city, and the positions were also half destroyed, and the modern enemy has already launched the first wave of attacks."

"Can you keep it? How long can we stay?"

Ji Fa asked with a pale face.

He didn't expect to be able to counterattack Chaoge, but holding Hanshou Pass was extremely important to Xiqi, as long as they held Hanshou Pass, their new army would have time to train and improve their combat effectiveness. But once Hanshou Pass is lost, Chaoge's army will be able to enter Xiqi, and then they will have no way to retreat, so they can only use unskilled troops to fight Chaoge's army.

"If you follow the current offensive of the Chaoge army, I'm afraid it will be difficult to hold for half a month!"

Hearing this, the blue-faced general said with a heavy face.

——————————

"Xiqi's recruits have not undergone any training at all, and in a week, they should be able to capture Hanshou Pass!"

In the rear command post of the Asaga's army, the evil looked at the map and said with a smile to the other generals in the command post.

"There are three positions of the Xiqi rebels outside Hanshou Pass, and now it is only a matter of one or two days to take the main position, and the positions on the left and right sides can be taken in a day at most."

"After taking these three positions, you can directly capture Hanshou Pass, and there is an enemy position and military camp behind Hanshou Pass, which is to prevent a surprise attack in the rear, and it is also the back road for the Xiqi army to retreat, after taking Hanshou Pass, it is easy to take the last enemy position."
