June 2, 19o9 A.D., Beiyang Furnace Bridge Defense Line.

"Uh......h Woo......" The air kept ringing like a train whistle.

Experienced veterans knew as soon as they heard it that this train whistle-like sound was the characteristic sound of heavy artillery shells with a caliber of more than 2o millimeters. In the midst of this terrifying train whistle, there are more and more shrill whistles, which are the sound of 15o mm shells breaking through the air.

Then, huge fireballs rose up in the defensive line, "Boom...... Boom......" thunderous roar filled every inch of space, and under this terrifying power, the earth trembled, and the water surface of the Yao River continued to ripple.

The shelling, which seemed to be like the sky falling apart, continued for nearly half an hour before stopping. At this time, the defense line of the furnace bridge was already a mess, the solid reinforced concrete was like paper paste, torn terribly by the violent shock wave, and everywhere there were broken bricks and rubble, twisted steel, and broken corpses......

The headquarters is more than ten meters underground, but the people inside are about to collapse.

"Bastard, bastard, didn't you say that the heavy artillery of the vultures couldn't be transported? What is this horseman?ah, why are you so dumb?" Ni Sichong's fat face turned purple......, and he pulled the collar of a staff member and scolded loudly.

Ni Dadu was almost frightened by the shelling just now, and performed a farce of drilling the table. When the shelling was over, he beat and scolded the staff members who had assured him that "the PLA will never have heavy artillery available."

"Hmm" The poor staff member was pressed against his trachea, his face was almost blue, and he could still speak.

Ni Sichong is now afraid and anxious, because he knows very well that this time the leak is too big, and no one can hold it back. Relying on those things that he relied on, if he was caught by the People's Liberation Army, it would definitely be a dead end. But if you can't stop the People's Liberation Army, escaping back is also a dead end, and Yuan Shikai has never been a soft-hearted person. This time, Ni Dadu summoned such a big disaster, and Boss Yuan hated it to the core.

"You waste old men can be miserable by you, I can't live, and you can't live" Ni Sichong was now angry, and his eyes were blood-red and he shouted with his staff. I saw that he actually took out a pistol and shot it at the head of the staff.

"Bah......" A gunshot rang out from the command headquarters.

A splash of blood erupted from the back of the hapless staff's head, and without a snort, he fell straight down, bright red blood and snow-white brains flowing all over the ground.

"Hahaha......" Ni Si wiped the face from his face and laughed nervously.

He kicked the corpse hard, and muttered in his mouth: "Lao Tzu can't live, don't want to live any of you, it's all your harm, it's all your harm......"

"Oh no, the governor is crazy, the governor is crazy," the rest of the staff and guards reacted at this time, and they all screamed in fright. Just now, these people didn't expect that Ni Sichong actually shot him. And Ni Sichong moved too fast, and they didn't have time to stop it at all.

Several people immediately rushed up to stop his crazy behavior, but at this time, Ni Sichong suddenly turned around and pointed his gun at a guard who ran over, and shouted frantically: "It's better to die."

"Bah......" Another gunshot rang out, and the guard clutched his chest and collapsed, still with an expression of disbelief on his face.

"Damn, he's really crazy" Everyone was shocked and angry.

Ni Sichong turned down again, and before he could shoot, a series of gunshots rang out around him.

"Bah Bah Bah"

I saw Ni Sichong's body tremble violently, and more than a dozen blood flowers appeared on his body, and then fell down like a broken sack, his originally round eyes had lost their lustre, and blood continued to gush out from the corners of his mouth, and after a while, there was a pool of blood on the ground.

Everyone in the room looked at each other, they all had guns in their hands, and the muzzles of them were still smoking, and it was clear that they had just fired.

"I ...... We just killed the Governor......," one of the guards said in a dull voice.

The 1st Pei position of the People's Liberation Army.

The commander of a sharp knife battalion was using a telescope to observe the position on the other side of the river behind the bunker, although the Yao River is not a large river, it is also more than 4o meters wide and 1o meters deep at its deepest. It turned out that there was a "furnace bridge" on the river, but it had been blown up by the Beiyang Army a few days ago, and all the boats and boats on the river were also taken away by the Beiyang Army.

"Battalion commander, although our engineer battalion has assault boats, this river is not easy......" The chief of staff next to him was also observing, he frowned and said: "There are almost no hidden places on the river beaches on both banks, and the enemy's firing range is good. If you force the crossing, the losses will be very large......"

"Although the artillery strike just now destroyed a large number of fortifications, there are still a lot of ...... left We can't afford to let the soldiers take risks. In this way, ask the division headquarters for support from some small-caliber direct-fire artillery. We can work through the guò tunnels, dig the trenches to the river, and then move the small cannons over and shoot at close range......"

"I think it's better to use recoilless guns, the target is small, and the enemy is less likely to appear. At the same time, we can also shoot smoke grenades at the river bank to cover the enemy's line of sight......"

"I did the math, the explosive projectile can hit that side, we can ......"

Several officers immediately squatted on the ground, drew diagrams on the ground with stones, and a lively discussion began.

"Huh, what's going on?" At this time, a company commander who continued to observe the opposite side suddenly exclaimed. "Battalion commander, instructor, come and see, there seems to be an accident on the other side......"

Everyone hurriedly ran back to the observation port, and this time they could see without binoculars, and several white flags were raised on the opposite defensive line, one of which seemed to be made of a sheet.

"What's going on? they surrendered?" the battalion commander's eyes widened. "Impossible, just a round of fire preparations"

"Is it a fraud?" everyone looked at each other, some of them undecided.

Because before the expedition, the superiors repeatedly stressed that they should not underestimate the enemy, saying that the Beiyang Army was different from the previous Qing army, and that it was capable of fighting tough battles and must not be taken lightly. Moreover, when fighting with -1 Town, I did feel that the morale, training, and technical and tactical level of the Beiyang Army were okay, although it was not as good as the People's Liberation Army, but it was much stronger than the patrol battalions, regimental training, bandits, etc. encountered before. In addition, this line of defense is indeed repaired in a similar way, and no obvious flaws can be found, so everyone is ready to fight a tough battle.

Thinking about that -1 town, the equipment is not as good as here, it has been supported for a day and a night under the three-dimensional attack of the 6 naval and air forces, and the fortress is gone. It was not until the People's Liberation Army surrounded Anqing City, transported heavy artillery across the Yangtze River, and collapsed the city wall that it surrendered. But now it's just a round of artillery, and the other party has raised a white flag, what kind of trouble is this?

Just when the officers and soldiers of the People's Liberation Army were at a loss, a few officers waving white flags suddenly appeared in the fortifications opposite. One of them held up a microphone and shouted: "PLA brothers, don't fight, don't fight, don't fight the PLA brothers on the other side, don't fight, we surrender, we surrender"

The battalion commander said to the guards next to him: "You go and shout, let them cross the river and talk." Then he picked up the radio: "Divisional headquarters, divisional headquarters, I am the 7th battalion, I am the 7th battalion."

"This is the division headquarters, please speak ...... the 7th battalion" a voice came from the radio.

"Urgent report, the enemy suddenly raised a white flag and demanded surrender, please instruct ......"

There was a sudden silence on the radio, and the battalion commander faintly heard the sound of a stool turning over. After a while, the radio sounded again: "...... Camp Commander Zhai, I'm Cai Yi, please repeat what you just said......"

Camp of the 1st Heavy Artillery Brigade of the People's Liberation Army.

At this time, on the artillery position, the officers and men were busy sweating profusely, although they were busy, they were orderly, every movement was accurate and in place, and they were not in a hurry.

"Quick, open the hydraulic valve of the No. 2 gun, reset the brakes, and lower the barrel...... Check the tires, put away the support feet to check the shells in the preparation position, and withdraw the fuse......" The squad and platoon leaders shouted the precautions loudly and skillfully commanded the soldiers.

I saw that the heavy artillery on the position was put away one after another, and it was restored from the firing state to the marching state. It stands to reason that it would have been fine by now, but the soldiers did not stop, they were still busy around the artillery.

"One, two, three...... Yes...... One two three...... Ah...... "They stuck a large wrench on the bolt of the gun mount, and then put a long steel pipe on the wrench, and several people grabbed the steel pipe together and shouted the horn to pull hard.

The squad leader looked at it and shouted, "Come again......"

"One, two, three...... Yes...... One two three...... Ah......h

"Okay, next ......" Hearing the squad leader's shout, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Then the squad leader and the deputy squad leader put the wrench on another large bolt......

All the artillery squads were in the same thing, and the trumpets sounded throughout the artillery positions.

"It's really a perfect design, and B-level heavy artillery can be disassembled and assembled on the battlefield," a U.S. ** officer excitedly watched the busy Chinese officers and soldiers work, and his mouth exclaimed from time to time.

The German ** officer next to him said: "I have to admit that I used to have too much prejudice against Chinese. Now it seems that Chinese is a very good people, no wonder this country has existed for 4o6 years......"

"I really didn't expect them to use this method to get the heavy artillery through that bad road...... And, of course, those unexpected auxiliary vehicles......" The German major named Hans had a look of surprise on his face. "It's a genius design, why can't we engineers think of it?"

At this time, dozens of steel giants roared in, including tracked tractors, tracked transporters, and several tracked forklifts. The tracked transporter is special in that they have a lifting hook behind the cab.

The auxiliary vehicles were divided into more than a dozen teams, each of which was responsible for its own work. The transporter drove up to the heavy gun, hoisted the barrel and placed it in its own compartment, which had a loading device on the base of the compartment with several grooves and a fixed clamp next to it. The soldiers in the carriage put the barrel into the groove and held the barrel firmly in place with a clamp.

By this time the heavy gun had been disassembled into several parts, the shells, barrels and supports were placed on the transporter, and the gun mount was hung behind the tractor.

It was evident that the artillerymen were already skilled in this work, and in less than half an hour, all the 21o mm guns were unloaded onto the transporter or hung on the back of the tractor. With the commander's order, all the vehicles 6 continued to move, and one by one drove out of the position.

If it is a short-distance maneuver in battle to avoid the enemy's counterattack, there is no need to be so troublesome, just use a tractor to drag the heavy artillery and run. It's only on a long march that it will be like this, dismantled and loaded and transported away.

On one of the tractors, several officers and soldiers chatted happily.

"It's really a base without beating us, and they actually surrendered to the trough, wasting our strength......," a corporal scolded with a laugh.

Another private said, "Isn't it? We've worked so hard to get the cannons here, and they've only been beaten for a while." These 6 towns are really enough for bears, and they are not as good as the -1 towns in front......"

"By the way, company commander, where are we going here?" a soldier asked Yang Lin.

Yang Lin glared at them and said, "Duan Qirui, who came from Beijing, stinky boys, give me a little leisure." Duan Qirui is not as wasteful as Ni Sichong, and this time they also brought a lot of heavy artillery......"

"Hehe, who's afraid of whom. Then compare yourself with them. The soldiers shouted excitedly.
