Chapter 229 Feel the power of iron and fire

Lin Xin's side commanded the battle between the British and the French, and there was nothing to look forward to. After all, it is not its own troops, and the demand is not to completely annihilate but to drag it out, and everything is best to fight steadily and steadily, and naturally there will be no big scene. However, the main force of the company and the French can break out at any time to a very explosive scene. Xiao Lin took out all the goods at the bottom of the box this time, and mobilized a total of 100 heavy howitzers, including all the White Tiger 1 tanks.

Naturally, in order to find a suitable reason, Sholin again protested to the French, asking them to give an explanation for the attack on the patrol of the 1st Field Brigade. It seems that none of the company's patrols died or suffered any mutilating injuries, while the French patrol that shot first was all arrested, and one by one they were cleaned up by the hot-blooded company soldiers. It seems that the French are the weak, the victims.

However, this does not hide the fact that it was the French who did it first. Even if the French attack on the company is nonsense and blame, the image that the company has always established makes everyone except the French believe that it is made up. This is also the result of Xiao Lin's careful management, and he is still very pleased with this phenomenon. For the people in the company, the French dared to do it first and finish it, because their strength was not good, but they were all caught, and then they dared to deny it.

In fact, the French also know that it is very likely that someone on their side will do it first. However, in this world, there is a kind of behavior called deception. As soon as the officers who were originally confronting the company here received the news, they knew that it was not good. Their laissez-faire strategy actually raised this kind of disaster, and they knew that it must be the people on their side who made the first move. That big man and reckless man had said more than once in the barracks before that he wanted to give the company's troops some color.

If this is confirmed, then none of them can escape. Although you won't be punished or anything, it will be hundreds or thousands of times more difficult to be promoted in the future. This is basically equivalent to cutting off their future development path. Most of these people are young generals around the age of 30, and they will have development in the future, and they will lose their future like this, and no one dares to be reconciled. Therefore, all the officers came together to hide the truth, so that the French top brass thought that the company could not bear it and wanted to find an excuse to kill them.

Deceiving the superiors and concealing the subordinates, bullying the superiors is like this, and concealing the subordinates is naturally for the sake of the morale of the army. You think, this kind of record, if it was really the company that did it first, the French patrol was not prepared, and it was good to be successfully attacked. If the real situation is that the French made the first move, but because the weapons are too poor and the combat effectiveness is too weak, not only did they not kill anyone, but they were also completely annihilated by others, then this blow to morale would be too great. The soldiers would begin to wonder if they would be able to beat the company's people.

Therefore, these French, who do not admit to their deaths, absolutely do not admit that it was their people who made the first move. And this attitude naturally provoked the Yanhuang Trading Company, which is now increasingly united and confident. The people in the company were extremely dissatisfied with this attitude of the French. In addition, Xiao Lin began to share the war dividends with the people of the company in a planned way, and the people of the company did not care that they had only been stable for a few months, and then they started to fight again. Last time, because of the expansion of power, everyone got a lot of benefits.

If it weren't for the company's outing, how would those who had emigrated to the new settlement get that fertile land? This time, Xiao Lin directly issued war bonds, and the interest rate of one percent was not much, but the company's people were still extremely enthusiastic to buy it. It's not money or anything, these people who bought bonds, even as soon as they go out, tear to shreds the bonds they sold with a month's or even half a year's salary, as a sign of their support for the army that gave them a happy life and protected them from the persecution of wild beasts, Indian robbers, and the army of British and French white bandits.

The preface is combined into one sentence, "Let the French taste the power of iron and fire!"

In this regard, Xiao Lin is indeed a good person. Since everyone is so enthusiastic to support, then Xiao Lin will not let them down. Of the hundred heavy howitzers, only forty of them were of 122mm caliber, and for the first time the 152mm caliber surpassed the 122mm caliber, a total of sixty. The arsenal was in full swing, and the engineers were all transferred to work as skilled workers for a while, and finally enough 3,000 rounds of explosive shells were scraped together. For the next year, 300 shells will be produced every month.

A hundred huge cannons, gathered together, what a spectacular scene at that time. Even at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, there was no such situation. The French had gone to great lengths to build three permanent fortifications, and confidently stated that they would make this a place for the corpses of the company's soldiers. In what they didn't see, Elson, the commander of the company's expanded heavy artillery brigade, nicknamed "Gun Boss", was commanding the soldiers to prepare for the cannon with high spirits.

"Boss Cannon, hurry, the design parameters of the night owls have arrived. ”

"Okay, everyone, adjust the shooting parameters immediately!"

"Yes!"

"Report, the first cannon is ready!"

"Report, the second cannon is ready!"

"Report, the third cannon is ready!"

.......

In just three minutes, a hundred giant cannons have been adjusted. There were only more than 30 heavy artillery pieces before, but this time it has directly become a hundred, and these artillerymen are naturally enthusiastic. Every artilleryman's love for large-caliber heavy artillery is no less than their love for their beautiful daughter-in-law. Well, although it is exaggerated, but the "cannon boss", Allson, is really crazy obsessed with large-caliber heavy artillery. Now, the cannon boss who looks extremely fanatical is the master of artillery that Xiao Lin really trusts.

"Alright, little ones, get ready. Let the French feel the power of iron and fire!!"

"Roar!"

"Cannon !!"

The cannon boss gave an order, and a hundred cannon ropes were pulled up at the same time, and a hundred heavy weapons from the country more than two hundred years later let out their terrible roar here. Three French castles, at the same time were baptized by terrible shells. These 100 heavy howitzers, just like the German army in those years, gave a huge slap in the face to the French who were complacent about the "Maginot Line". In the first shelling, only about 20 percent of the artillery bombardment did not accurately hit these important targets.

It is not a reinforced concrete structure, and the large bluestone that has been temporarily mined seems to be extremely strong, but when it really encounters this kind of heavy artillery, it is still vulnerable. The power of the explosion of the 122mm heavy artillery shell can directly blow up several large green bricks, not to mention the more powerful 152mm heavy howitzer. This is also the death of the French themselves, they have to build some permanent fortress, they have been standing here, the coordinates have been determined by the night owls more than ten times, how can there be any error.

The night owl soldiers who were observing from the front line all felt a terrible shaking of the earth, as if there had been a magnitude 8 earthquake. The fortifications of the three fortresses were completely covered with gunpowder and dust blown up by the shells, and after the three thousand shells were fired, by the time the smoke cleared, it was already four hours later. It was only then that the Night Stalker's warriors saw a hellish sight. All the walls facing the company's army no longer have a complete area of more than ten meters.

All the batteries were torn down, and the ruins were mixed with the mutilated corpses of the French soldiers who had been guarding them, and it was truly a terrible abyss scene. Before the French could recover from the terrible shelling, a neat trotting of soldiers pierced through. The three brigades of the field division, at the beginning of the shelling, left their original trench fortifications and began to assemble and wait for the attack. It was also the first time they had seen such a terrible heavy artillery cluster attack.

Even if they were a full 1,500 meters away, they could still clearly feel the vibration caused by the shelling, like a heavenly might, and they couldn't help but be afraid. However, when I turned around and thought about it, this terrible power was actually on their own side, and they had a way, and they heard that this kind of artillery would be more and more in the future. At this time, one by one, the morale directly broke through the sky at a cheating speed, and directly kept the full value.

Originally, the distance of 1,500 meters, it took them nearly ten minutes to run over, fully armed. But now, it only took four minutes for these people to run over, and at that speed, that momentum, several night owl warriors who had not had time to leave jumped down. When these men reached the front of the fortress, they met no resistance at all. It was not easy for the French to build such a fortress building, but it was all gone, and the heavy troops that had been hoarded were also gone.

The key is that kind of Tianwei-level power, so that these people have no morale at all, and all the people who reacted tried their best to run back. The soldiers of the 10,000 field divisions, storming these forts, did not fire a few shots at all, and all of them became prisoners. Don't think that this kind of record is exaggerated, any weapon, the first time it goes on the battlefield after maturity, will cause terrible casualties to the enemy. This batch of heavy artillery is all the real materials produced by the real Huaguo Military Factory.

For the first time, this fully matured cannon appeared in front of the French. And the French, the concept of combat still did not make any progress for this terrible heavy artillery. The trench fortifications of the system can still withstand one or two, and they don't know whether they are alive or dead, and they can deal with this terrible heavy artillery with the fortress defense company that defends the front-loading artillery, and the key is that there is no reinforced concrete, that is, the god of death who bullies the souls of hell does not know him. But can the Grim Reaper not know him?
