Three days later, in the middle of the night, the heavy artillery unit finally arrived. It's just that the road is too strenuous, and it rains, so the roads are full of mud, and the artillery is full of mud, so it must be cleaned up overnight, and the water must be removed during the day before it can be used. Apache and the others still wanted to wait for this batch of heavy artillery to be ready, but Xiao Lin was directly speechless.

Originally, Li Ming was transferred to them in order to strengthen their strength, and at the same time to make them ready to dare to fight a big battle. It's just that I didn't expect it to have the opposite effect to a certain extent. Li Ming and the others found a lot of faults, which made Apache and the others a little weak-hearted. It seems that these brigade commanders really thought that their troops were too poor, and after scolding the three brigade commanders of Apache with wired telephones, he personally made the decision, and the next morning, officially began the attack.

A brigade of 3,000 people, plus artillery logistics cooking squads, etc., there were more than 6,500 people of the company in each direction, each threatening a town. Because Adolf was not sure where to attack first, and he was afraid that he would not be able to defeat him in the end, the most elite 10,000 new troops in his hands were stationed with him in an easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack area in the middle of the three towns.

The three-way army was dispatched at the same time, and the attack officially began at nine o'clock in the morning. They all discovered the existence of the other party, and the town has been vigilant enough, and the night attack has no effect at all, so there is no need to do this. Although 122mm, 152mm heavy guns and 82mm mortars could not participate in the battle, the Heavy Fist II artillery and the Assault 1 60mm mortars still maintained strong combat effectiveness.

There is a standard for the offensive of the company's troops, first of all, the scouts are dispatched to confirm the enemy's coordinates, and then the artillery is prepared. There were five rounds of fire before the infantry began to attack. These five rounds of shelling generally did not produce much effect, especially in the face of the British, who had fought several battles with the company. As soon as they noticed signs of an army build-up, the instructors of the new army in the town began to arrange for the soldiers to enter the anti-artillery facilities.

Because it is the frontier bordering the company, a stone defensive wall has been built for a long time. The standard was still based on the twelve-pounder cannon that could defend them, and it cost so much money that it almost caused a riot. The battle is about to begin, and the people in the town are also recruited to assist in the defense. The people in the three towns dared not speak out, and they all hoped that the people from the company would come in and liberate them. However, the effect is really good, and the shelling has just started on that side, and this side is already ready.

The heavy punch bombardment on the city wall, although it can hit the rubble and splash everywhere, but it does not have much effect. After all, it is a front-loading artillery, and the number is not more than a hundred, so it is really impossible to count on. The fighters of the field division began to approach slowly, and the machine guns were carried, but they were not erected in order to protect against enemy artillery fire. Rather, it was the assault mortar, which began to be erected 800 meters away from the wall of the bureau.

Set up in three seconds, adjust the firing angle in three seconds, and shoot in two seconds. For a total of eight seconds, the front-loading artillery had just plugged the gunpowder, and the people had already carried the cannon away. The soldiers of the field division were basically equipped with new weapons, and most of them still used the improved Yanhuang 1 J-precision rifle of the Yanhuang 1 rifle. The performance is not only the pinnacle of the official rifle in history, the effective firing range has even reached 250 meters, and the hit rate is more than 50 percent.

Just two hundred meters outside the city walls, the fighters of the field division stopped. Calculated, this distance, hit the enemy on the city wall is just right. And the British army on the city wall, even if it has the bonus of the wall more than eight meters high, it still can't accurately hit the field division soldiers outside. This distance was emptied by the British, and there was nothing to hide. But can this be difficult for them, just make an Iroquois-style bulletproof shield.

This bulletproof shield made of wood and fur quilt has a certain defensive effect against the 7 and 62mm caliber bullets of the Yanhuang type J, not to mention the bullets of the British that separate gunpowder and bullets. The soldiers of a field brigade will roll out nearly 100 bulletproof shields, and there will be five soldiers behind them, and if there are many people, they will attract the attention of the enemy's artillery.

With fewer people, the artillery will not dare to open fire, and once it will be opened, the position will be revealed, and the company's heavy artillery and two-thirds of the number of assault mortars are waiting to take them out. In this kind of shooting from a distance of 200 meters, even the new army will not be able to gain any advantage. It's obviously aimed at the head, and when you shoot it, you don't know where the bullet flies. It's nothing, the key is that there is no law, and it is completely affected by the wind speed and humidity to fly everywhere.

Therefore, the commanders of the new army have learned wisely, and they don't care what they are aiming at, and it is useless to aim at this distance. It is better to load the bullet and gunpowder directly under the protection of the city wall, shoot within three seconds of reaching out, and then immediately retreat and reload the bullet. In this way, it will not only be able to maintain the suppression of the enemy's fire under the city walls, but also ensure that your own manpower will not be lost too much.

At this time, the Apache they really have no choice, the enemy has suffered too many losses from the artillery, and the position of the artillery will not be exposed until the last resort. However, if the enemy artillery is ignored, the company may not be able to accept the casualties of a forced attack. Especially the soldiers of the field division, each of them is an elite soldier trained by the company with a lot of painstaking efforts. There are few people in the company, which forces Xiao Lin to follow the elite soldier policy, so if the loss is a little bigger, they will all be heartbroken.

After an hour of fighting, the greatest result was that the Apache Field Brigade had killed more than 100 enemies, most of whom were militiamen. Xiao Lin couldn't see much of the result, so he let the soldiers retreat. This infuriated Adolf, who had been thinking of relying on the 10,000 new troops in his hands and uniting thousands of troops in the town to destroy a group of enemies and divide the company into pieces.

However, he only dared to attack if he had left the company's fighters out of the trench defenses. If they were still in the trenches, with machine guns and mortars on their shelves, they really couldn't break through. Even if it wins, it will be a crushing victory, and the rest of the battle will be nothing for them. Don't think about a large number of reinforcements, the training of 20,000 recruits has made Charlie very difficult, where is the money to make up for the previous army structure.

He was in a hurry, and as soon as he arrived here with his troops, the people had already withdrawn. It is possible to chase after it, but at most a few hundred people will be left, and the large army will still return to the trenches. When they turn around, these new troops will probably have to leave a lot behind. Therefore, Adolf could only watch as his original target returned to the trench safely.

Adolf is no longer secretive, his 10,000 people, no matter how he hides, can't hide, and he directly leads people to slowly retreat. He had to get back to his previous position as soon as possible, or it would explode if the company mobilized heavy troops and laid siege to the other two towns. Xiao Lin's order was conveyed, and the night owl warriors here had already begun to move. Directly detoured the distance, using all kinds of equipment in their hands, passed through the undefended and dangerous terrain, and began to reconnoiter the signs of Adolf's ten thousand people.

At the same time, Sholin began to urge the artillery to clean up the heavy artillery, which must be done before dark. He didn't know how many reinforcements the British had behind him, and if they were blocked here, the plan would be in vain. Since the enemy does not want to expose their artillery, then blast it out with heavy howitzers.

As the minutes ticked by, both sides remained in a state of standoff. Next, it was lunch and dinner time, which the British army hated most. Originally, absorbing some of the company's cooking techniques, the British moved a little away from the path of dark cuisine. However, compared with the company, it was still thrown eight streets.

Before the war, it was fine when it didn't stop at noon and night, but once it rested at noon and night, it was fun. Even the big pot of rice in the army has a fragrance far greater than that of the food made by the British themselves. Backed by the common spices and low prices in the 21st century, the happiest thing about becoming a warrior of Yanhuang Trading Company is that spices and condiments that cannot be contaminated for a lifetime under normal circumstances can be added at will.

Some of the company army soldiers with bad tastes like to add more fragrant condiments, and the taste is really three miles in the wind. These people also liked to eat with great fanfare a mile away from the enemy, just to let the British outposts with binoculars see them. Every time, the British were so angry that their teeth itched, but there was nothing they could do about it. This time, it was no exception, compared with the "luxury dinner" opposite, seeing the dry bread and a little pickle in their hands, everyone was very resentful.

The officers of the new army who were in charge of the command in the towns could only eat some ordinary food with the ordinary soldiers, and if there was any gap between the rich and the poor, I was afraid that it would arouse the resentment of all the soldiers. Riots may not be there yet, but morale drops are inevitable. was supposed to deal with an elite and strong enemy, and he also caused his morale to drop, so he could only wait for death. Time passed slowly, and gradually, it was getting dark. The artillery fighters did not bother to eat, and they kept dealing with the heavy artillery stained with mud.

These large-caliber cannons, they have just arrived, and they all cherish them very much. As long as they are really engaged in artillery, they don't like large-caliber heavy artillery, especially this kind of artillery that has no live mouth within 30 meters of a bomb, and it is an artifact they dream of. This time they accidentally got mud, but it hurt them to death, and if these artifact-level heavy cannons were damaged because of this, they would really kill themselves by disembowelment. Therefore, before the cannon is disposed of, they can't take a break.
