Chapter 386, the chess opponent belongs to yes
"Keep up! Get ready for a assault! ”
"Don't take the lead! Don't take the plunge!! I want to eat guns! ”
Jin Biao, who was still the squad leader, ran to a sandbag truck with the soldiers in his squad lying on his stomach.
Steel-bearing cars are actually much more durable than previous wood-bearing cars.
But after being hit by a solid shell, the steel bearings were also blown out, and the cart, which had a dozen sandbags hanging on it, was now impossible to push, and now became a bunker for Jin Biao and his brothers.
Now there are only eight people left in the gold standard class.
There are four fewer people than when it was full.
Three people have been killed in battle, and one is lying in the field hospital, and I don't know if I can be saved, not to mention that it is said that if I get back, I will lose an arm.
"This guy is lucky!"
Gold Label thought.
Crippled on the battlefield due to wounds, at least one gold medal.
With this gold medal, you can at least become a member of the local council when you return to your hometown.
Although the families of the fallen soldiers can also get a lot of benefits.
But no matter how many benefits you have, you can't spend it yourself.
While thinking about it, Jin Biao let the soldiers at hand lie down in the sandbag, and he quietly came out to observe.
A rakshasa ghost in the distance also appeared.
Front, middle and rear three waves of infantry skirmishers appeared.
"Rakshasa is smart." Jin Biao muttered in a low voice.
War is indeed the thing that brings out the best in human potential.
The Russian infantry also began to develop a strategy of wave skirmishes after heavy casualties - the same as the First World War, which was summed up in human life.
The Russian infantrymen had not taken a few steps before some stopped to release their guns in a kneeling position, and whizzing bullets flew over the sandbags.
The "Three Hundred and Fifty Steps" gold label estimates the distance.
"Hide up, don't fire yet, wait for orders!"
He turned his head and said loudly to his brothers.
at this distance.
It was difficult for them to hit their opponents with the rear-loading guns they had at hand.
On the contrary, the opponent's front-loading rifled guns have a much longer firing range due to their better airtightness than the current rear-loading guns.
Of course.
The Western Army had an infantry battalion all armed with front-loading rifled guns.
The guys they have on hand are very sophisticated "sniper rifles".
The firing range is very long, and the trajectory is stable.
The soldiers of the sniper battalion are also elite veterans drawn from the Ming Army.
The enemy at a distance is naturally dealt with by the men of the sniper battalion.
It's such a long distance, though.
Veterans of the sniper battalion also had a hard time hitting.
probably felt that shooting at such a distance was a waste of bullets, and the gunfire of the Russian infantry gradually became scarce, and everyone began to move forward with their heads covered.
At this moment.
The howitzers of the Ming army have already roared.
The god of war, tea, trembled, and the artillery tilted towards the line of the Russian infantry that formed three waves of skirmishers in front.
The shells exploded in the steppe, creating large and small gaps in the wide range of skirmishers.
However, compared to the casualties of a few years ago when they rushed forward in a dense horizontal formation and were shelled, these casualties were barely bearable.
Under the desperate control of junior and middle-ranking officers in the Russian army.
The Russian army still formed three waves of stragglers, like a thin blue wave pushing forward, which soon made the Ming soldiers on the front line feel the huge pressure.
But the gold standard is not panicking.
He can be said to be a veteran of battle, what is there to be afraid of lying behind cover?
Isn't it more scalp-tinging to be shot in line face-to-face back then?
Moreover, the military discipline of the Ming army is very strict now, and there may be a chance of death at most two or three percent if you stay here, and if you die, your family can still get a lot of pensions, and your descendants can also get shade.
But if you run away.
Then there is a probability of more than ninety percent of them dying - it is too difficult to escape from the control range of the Ming army.
And.
If you die, you will die in vain, and all the fields and the like that you have obtained will be recovered.
Immediate family members are also not allowed to serve as soldiers, officials, or even have restrictions on doing business.
Which is more important.
The gold standard is still clear.
In the rear of the Russian army.
Dozens of high-ranking officers of the Russian army all looked a little uneasy.
The current war situation is greatly unfavorable to the Russian army.
Originally, they thought that the defense of the barbed wire and the trenches was foolproof.
But who would have thought.
These Chinese have such a way!
They actually used the old shield carts to cover the infantry and artillery advances, and now the artillery of the Ming army has arranged artillery positions based on the bunkers formed by the large and small shield carts.
If more Ming artillery fire can fall directly into the Russian trenches in the form of high-pitched ballistics from the air, then the Russian troops hiding in the trenches will have to be subjected to heavy shelling.
In fact, it was not impossible - the later trenches were quickly changed from horizontal and vertical to zigzag, and a large number of bomb shelters were arranged to avoid shelling.
So by the Second World War and even in modern times.
Trenches are still very important.
Even "earthwork" is already the most basic technology of the infantry.
However, the current Russian army is not a civilized army with explosive subjective initiative, but a mighty army.
Even improving the trenches doesn't really require a lot of brains.
But it is also impossible for the Russian army to think of a way in a short time.
Therefore, they could only risk sending infantry to drive out the artillery of the Ming army.
As a result, the defensive positions of the barbed wire fence and trenches they had constructed lost part of their function.
"Can the Chinese actually think of such a way, is the invincible defense of barbed wire and trenches about to be breached?"
A Russian officer muttered.
What he didn't really know was.
The shield is a kind of earthen tank.
The mainstream trench warfare in later generations was ended by the assault of the torrent of tanks.
The current method of the Ming army using shield vehicles to cover artillery and infantry is actually similar to the idea of fighting blitzkrieg with infantry and tanks in later generations.
Moreover, now the Ming army does not have tanks, and the firepower of the Russian army is far inferior to that of the armies of various countries that were generally equipped with machine guns during World War I.
Both sides happened to be evenly matched.
"Hell! If only there were a few guns that could be better aimed."
A Russian officer muttered.
A cannon for better aiming
Isn't it just a rifled gun?
There is a saying that the Tao is one foot high, and the magic is one foot high.
War is the best way to completely force out the potential of human beings.
At the same time, the counterattack of the Russian army was also blocked by the Ming army, which relied on sandbags for defense. As happened in the Austro-Prussian War in history, the front-loading gun was not at all the opponent of the rear-loading gun, and the advantage of long range was very difficult to play on the battlefield. Not many soldiers could hit an enemy lying down or hiding behind cover from 400 yards away.
"Looks like there's a tough fight tonight!"
"Hit it! What kind of tough battles have our Russian warriors not fought? ”
"There's really nothing to be afraid of! The direction of the enemy's main attack has been determined! ”
Musayev said stunned.
"This decisive battle is related to the territory of the empire in Asia, if it wins, the empire will still be a great power across Europe and Asia. We will only have to take back Europe, and sooner or later our territories in Asia will be annexed by the Chinese! ”
"Your Majesty! Waiting for the news of our victory!! (End of chapter)
