Chapter Ninety-Eight: Artillery Coverage
Black Rose sat quietly in her place, listening to her subordinates' reports in some amazement.
"You mean, they only used five or six thousand men to surround Mount Helmos?".
The subordinate said:
"yes, but they've been digging holes since they set up camp and have sat some strange things in the pits."
Black Rose grasped the point and asked:
"What's weird?".
The subordinate said:
"It's some iron pipes, some thick and some thin, some tall and some short, and some pipes are connected together, I don't know what they're for."
The second master laughed, and he said to the black rose:
"I'm sure this time, Boss, we don't have any worries."
Black Rose kicked away a skull at her feet, her beautiful eyebrows wrinkled together.
"No, it's absolutely wrong, why would they cut us off food and medicine if they didn't really want to attack us?".
The second master was speechless, since the black rose said that there was a problem, then there must be a problem, he believed in the black rose, it was a belief in his bones.
In the operational command room, Ke Lei, Xu Kuang, and Zhao Congfeng sat together, and in front of them was a group of operational staff officers who were constantly busy.
An operational staff officer walked in and said to Xu Kuang:
"Report to the commander-in-chief, the artillery positions of our army have all been established, the firing angles have been fully adjusted, and they are ready to be fired at any time."
Xu Kuang picked up the walkie-talkie on the table and said to everyone:
"Fire now! A full-scale blow to the mountains and forests below. ”。
Korey stepped out of the tent and quietly looked at the running position not far away, he really wanted to see what tricks these cannons could play.
The next moment, all the artillery opened fire, instantly turning a large area in the distance into a sea of fire.
Viscount Koray watched all this in amazement, and at that moment, the rocket car fired.
There were ten rocket trucks in this position, and at this moment hundreds of rockets were launched, and it was like a rain of fire in the sky, and Kore could hear the huge explosion even from several kilometers away.
In the mountains and forests in the distance, the crowd was even more chaotic, and one after another shells fell on the heads of the robbers, which immediately blew up the robbers in the forest.
Black Rose frowned as she listened to the rumbling sound of cannons in the distance.
She hurriedly asked:
"What's going on?".
Or the herald just now:
"Those pipes breathed fire, and the fire they spewed fell into the woods, causing an explosion directly!".
Black Rose grabbed the herald by the throat and strangled him to death.
"Don't mess around, everyone, ...... immediately."
A cannonball fell on Black Rose's side, and Black Rose hurriedly dodged, but was still swept away by the cannon fire and was swept away by the shock wave.
This is a mistake in the artillery school artillery.
Xu Kuang looked at the continuous explosions in the distance, waited for nearly half an hour, and picked up the walkie-talkie again.
"A minute later, the artillery fire extended to the hill, and the battalions immediately pressed on it to clear the remnants of the enemy as soon as possible!".
Korey stared blankly at the blown up hillside in the distance, and was suddenly stunned, he looked at Xu Kuang and asked:
"Can you ...... this weapon?"
Before he finished speaking, Xu Kuang said:
"I can't sell it now, my troops haven't finished equipping with you, and when my troops are all equipped, it's not too late for you to ask."
Korey couldn't help but ask:
"Can you tell me how much all this equipment costs?"
Xu Kuang cleared his throat and said to Korey:
"Mortars start from 40 calibers, and for every 20 calibers more, the price rises by 2,000 gold coins, and the price of 40 caliber mortars is 10,000 gold coins, and the same is true for artillery shells, 20 gold coins per round of 40 caliber shells. A 75-caliber artillery gun costs 65,000 gold coins, a shell costs 100 gold coins, a 105-caliber heavy artillery gun costs 300,000 gold coins, and an artillery shell costs 2,000 gold coins. ”。
Korey's face was a little embarrassed, and he asked:
"Brother, you're not kidding, aren't they all broken copper?"
Xu Kuang smiled:
"Brother, I'm not kidding you, do you think those are all broken copper? If you take a closer look, you should be able to see how high the barrel temperature is at the moment of firing, right? What kind of iron can withstand this grade of heat? In terms of material costs alone, I need hundreds of thousands of gold coins for each 105 cannon, not to mention how many gold coins and how much time it takes to train a skilled worker, do you agree with this? ”。
Corey sighed, and he said to Xu Kuang:
"As long as I haven't talked about it, I'll go to your territory and buy some when I'm ready."
Xu Kuang didn't laugh at him either, after all, this is also a big customer, parentheses, and the future.
Soon, the forward troops reported that the remnants of the enemy in the woods had been cleared.
Xu Kuang immediately said:
"See that mountain wall? Aim at that mountain wall, change into armor-piercing bullets, and fire immediately! ”。
Dozens of cannons were aimed at the mountain wall and fired together, causing the mountain wall to tremble constantly.
Black Rose was organizing people to retreat into the mountain wall, when suddenly a loud explosion was heard, and even the mountain wall began to tremble.
Black Rose's face changed dramatically, and she said to everyone:
"Quick, back road!".
The three masters are hiding in the so-called back road in the mouth of the Black Rose, which is a tunnel that leads to more than a dozen kilometers away.
At this moment, the top of the tunnel was constantly leaking from the sound of explosions, which made the three masters wonder if this tunnel could withstand it.
Black Rose led people to the tunnel, and she said to the three masters:
"Third child, let's go, we won't last long here."
Everyone hurriedly walked to the front of the tunnel.
Xu Kuang also announced a ceasefire at this time.
At the same time, the two-headed wind demon eagle and a dozen nature priests began to hover over Mount Helmos along different routes.
A moment later, the priest of nature reported:
"There is no one in the mountain wall anymore, everyone has disappeared into thin air."
Xu Kuang listened to the news in disbelief, and he immediately ordered:
"Everyone immediately withdrew from Mount Helmos, and the artillery fire extended down the hill as soon as the personnel were withdrawn."
Xu Kuang didn't believe that there was a way for them to retreat in front of the mountain, only behind the mountain, fortunately he had arranged a considerable number of artillery behind the mountain before, and now he was not very worried that this group of people would run out.
A group of people walked in the tunnel for a long time, but they were stunned to find that the tunnel had been partially blown off.
Black Rose immediately made a decision and said to all his subordinates:
"Dig up, or we'll all be suffocated here."
The group must have listened to the Black Rose and immediately began to dig upwards.
It didn't take long for a group of people to dig out the tunnel.
Black Rose and the others walked out, and when they saw the back mountain that had turned into scorched earth, they all had palpitations.
Black Rose took a deep breath and couldn't help but say to herself:
"Where the hell did this person come from, and how could it be ......."
Before she could finish her sentence, a barrage of shells landed on their heads.
The position where the Black Rose was hit by four or five shells in a row, and the Black Rose was not hit with iron, but was directly blown into several sections.
