"Fire!"

Boom Boom!

Fu Xiu's artillery was the first to fire, and five 80-millimeter guns roared towards the position a mile away with fury.

Boom Boom! ~

With a flash of sparks, fierce flames and smoke began to rise from the opposite position, and a large amount of earth was shot out.

Looking through the binoculars, looking at the enemy's position motionless, Fu Xiu frowned slightly.

The other party is too calm, he doesn't believe that his side has just built a defense line outside the city, and the other party is not aware at all.

Even the pit that has been digging for the past few days will be silent.

It was as if on this day, the opposing position's position seemed to enter a state of silence.

Fortunately, their own soldiers had already reached the vicinity of the dirt bag.

This is also the reason why he dared to launch a counteroffensive, there is that place where the other side dug up and piled up, this is the natural second line of defense.

These own soldiers, first vigilantly checked whether there was any enemy in the pit, dropped a grenade to bombard, and after making sure that there was no one inside, they began to rest along the mound as cover.

The strange phenomenon of the enemy army also made the brothers who pressed forward a little uncertain.

It was so quiet that even if the artillery hit the position, the enemy still did not move.

"Strange, is there no one in the enemy position? Withdrawn? Staff Officer Cao was also puzzled.

This is too unreasonable, obviously I have seen a large number of signs of movement on the enemy's position, so I would not have withdrawn so quickly.

"It's not like we're going to play with them, are we?" A staff officer laughed and teased.

The other party didn't fight back, and everyone relaxed a lot, which would be able to afford to joke.

"It's also possible that they detected the movement of Zhao Shizuo, and it makes sense that the other party withdrew in advance." Fu Xiu said lightly.

Perhaps only this explanation can be explained, after all, once the two sides are encircled, the situation of the other side is not good.

"Hey, that's not bad, at least we've finally kept Xuanhua."

However, just as the staff officer was laughing, woo woo!

The next moment, there was a whistling sound from high in the sky on the other side, and this whistling sound was very loud, so huge that no one could ignore it.

It seems that at the same time, there are many things that pierce the sky and whizz towards this side.

"Not good! It's enemy shelling! Cover!!! ”

Someone shouted loudly, and at this time, everyone also reacted and quickly fell in the direction of the sandbag.

In the next moment, the entire position shook like a mountain, and then a dense explosion exploded in everyone's ears.

Boom Boom! ~

If you look down from the sky, you can see that the improvised position built by Fu Xiu's headquarters, which took only 20 minutes, was completely covered by a violent explosion in a short period of time.

One shell after another kept crushing the position.

Fu Xiu was already stunned, wasn't there only a few artillery? Why so many?

Previously, Zhao Ming's subordinates only fired eight shells each time, which was extremely confusing.

In addition, the artillery battalion position has been well hidden, although Xuanhua has received some rumors that Zhao Ming's artillery has been numerous, but there has been no intuitive concept.

And now, it's really clear.

This artillery, let alone fifty!

This time, Zhao Ming did not bring many artillery pieces, a total of eighty, and the rest were all handed over to Wang Er's department for the siege of Datong.

And this time the fire was also fired by fifty artillery salvos, and thirty were set up in the position on the east side to defend against Zhao Sui's headquarters.

But even if it is only eighty, it is much more than Fu Xiu's department.

The first three rounds were completed with a salvo of fifty guns, followed by a round of twenty-five guns for repeated volleys.

The shelling lasted directly from half past five to six o'clock, and it took an unknown number of rounds of bombardment before Zhao Ming's artillery entered a short period of silence.

At this time, there was a silence on Fu Xiu's position, and as three minutes passed, someone on the position struggled to get up from the ground.

Fu Xiu was woken up by someone and spat blood as soon as he woke up.

Looking at his face again, the whole body looked extremely haggard, dirty and didn't speak, and his voice was weak.

"Check the casualties, Gong ..... Solid defense line .....\"

"Tuanza! Still fighting? The brothers are afraid that there will be heavy casualties, and we ....." the adjutant said with a sad face.

What else is this fighting?

As far as the eye can see, there are hardly many people still moving on the entire front.

These weren't a few volleys, they were dozens, and they didn't have time to dig trenches at all, they were just temporary lines of defense built with sandbags.

It's okay to rely on these things to withstand shelling, but you can't stop such a saturation blow.

Fu Xiu was actually still a little dazed now, he struggled to sit on the ground, wiped his watch with his hand, and looked at the time.

"VI.... It's six o'clock, reinforcements .... What about reinforcements? ”

"Tuanza, how can there be any reinforcements! How could the enemy's shelling be firing all the time if reinforcements arrived? ”

The adjutant said and slammed his fist on the ground in anger.

Hearing this, Fu Xiu was even more stunned, and he felt that the world was spinning for a while.

But he pulled himself together, glanced at the messy position, and let out a final sigh.

"Surrender! Tell them we surrendered, raise the white flag and surrender! ”

This will wake up one after another, and Staff Officer Cao had the intention to stop it when he heard this, but after looking around, he also sighed and did not stop it.

Soon an adjutant looked for the white cloth, and found that it was all dirty, so he simply tore off his outer clothes, hung the white shirt inside on the spear, and raised it and shook it vigorously.

"I thought they could hold out a little longer, and then surrender?"

"Hehe, it's already good, you try to be bombarded by so many shells in turn?"

Zhao Ming rolled his eyes, it was not bad that the other party was unwilling to fight to the death.

In fact, he estimated that the casualties of Fu Xiu's department were not so large, that is, the previous rounds focused on hitting the opponent's position.

In the follow-up, he had the artillery battalion divert the target, focusing on bombarding the edge near the enemy's position.

It's just that the artillery fire continues, and it may be that the terrifying concussive shock wave has stunned many people.

"Let them all drop their weapons and get out! We've spent so many days here, and it's time to take over this fortified city. ”

Zhao Ming clapped his hands and walked out of the trench.

The crowd laughed too.

This battle is really easy, if only it could be so easy every time you fight.

No! No, it doesn't.

Some cavalry and infantry couldn't even think of doing this, otherwise the credit would be taken by the gang of dog thieves in the artillery battalion, which would not work.

Soon Zhao Ming's troops completed the reception of Xuanhua, and the army quickly occupied various important places in Xuanhua, and blocked some departments in Xuanhua City to implement short-term military control.

As for Fu Xiu and other subordinates, they were treated as prisoners deserved, the wounded were sent for treatment, and the dead were buried collectively.

In the final count, Fu Xiu's troops suffered a total of 200 casualties in this battle, and the casualties were indeed not large.

As for why Zhao Sui's department failed to kill as expected?
