"Artillery type" is nominally a single type of machine name, and its practical term "artillery group" may be more appropriate, because the so-called "artillery type" is basically a big family.

Unlike other types with a single purpose, the artillery type covers a fairly wide range of tasks, which is inseparable from the high versatility of the chassis of this type.

Anti-aircraft guns, rapid-fire guns, mortars, recoilless guns, anti-tank guns, siege artillery, rocket artillery, cannons, howitzers, particle cannons...... With the exception of train guns, almost all of the Defence Guard's active artillery guns can be equipped with the "Artillery Type", a versatile and walkable universal chassis, which makes the Artillery Type de facto a family with many members. Coupled with the obsessive-compulsive disorder of the elves, there are often artillery types equipped with guns of the same caliber and a bunch of sub-models just because of the double diameter of the barrel, the improvement of the automatic loading mechanism, the subtle adjustment of the walking mechanism, the production batch and other details......

The basic structure of the artillery type is characterized by an unarmored hexapod body, except for the hexapod that supports the body, is the gun on the back, and the tail is a pair of long standing hoes, like the tail of a scorpion. Due to the lack of armor protection, and the slightly heavier artillery armament with only the back, it was completely possible to disassemble it for ejection airdrop - this was fully considered in the original design.

Therefore, less than 10 minutes after landing, thanks to the efforts of the support and support type, all seven artillery types were already in place and ready for battle.

No.

Perhaps the words "slaughter" and "destruction" are more appropriate and telling to describe what follows.

The use of 52x diameter 155mm howitzers and 40-barreled 122mm rocket launchers to fire at unprotected houses – no matter by any standard, this cannot be called "combat".

Artillery direct aim and flat fire is not a new tactic, it has been around since the moment the artillery was born. In ancient sieges, heavy cannon barrels were fired horizontally to bombard the fortified walls and open breaches. Since then, despite continuous technological advances, this artillery tactic has continued to maintain tenacious vitality. From anti-tanks to anti-fortresses, all kinds of artillery can be seen firing horizontally. And the pinnacle of bringing large-caliber artillery to the point of direct aiming and flat fire was the Soviet Red Army during World War II. The black-and-white film clips of the thick pipes of various calibers that turn all kinds of buildings with the inverted swastika logo into powder are almost the best annotation of the Red Army's artilleryism.

This tactic is also often used by the Defence Forces, and they have escalated it under the influence of obsessive-compulsive disorder and phobia of insufficient firepower. In the revolving door operation, many of Charlemagne's hastily established defensive lines were destroyed in the salvo of large-caliber artillery approaching, and some of these fortresses were fired by monsters such as "assault tigers" because they surrendered in a timely manner, and as a result, several 380mm rockets were fired down, not to mention the fortress and broken corpses, and even the objects that could be identified no longer existed.

Fortifications in the military sense are directly hit by large-caliber artillery, but what about mountain dwellings that have no protection capability at all?

Don't think that the 155mm is less than half the size of the 380mm, but if anyone really thinks so, it would be ...... It's so blissful.

The caliber size does directly determine the power of the artillery, but it is not the only decisive factor. It is important to know that traditional self-propelled artillery inevitably has a trade-off in artillery performance in order to cooperate with the high-speed maneuver of armored and motorized troops. The caliber is small and the power is insufficient, the weight is heavy, the chassis cannot be loaded and run, the body tube is long, it is easy to insert into the dirt when marching, and the recoil also makes the chassis unbearable. As long as it is not a fortress gun that is so heavy that it cannot be moved, it can be as large as the caliber you want, how large the diameter you want, how much medicine you want, and how much recoil, chamber pressure, and reload speed are not a problem, as long as you can ensure that you can smash a full two shells on the enemy's head.

Unfortunately, the artillery version is not a self-propelled gun in the traditional sense, but a multi-legged self-propelled chassis that carries a towed gun in the strict sense.

Previously, the 155mm self-propelled guns equipped by the Wehrmacht were 39 times the diameter of the barrel, and the reasons for designing it were those mentioned above. However, the artillery type is not shackled by the above rules and regulations, relying on stronger power and terrain adaptability than the tracked chassis, they can carry all the standard towed guns with a caliber of 210mm for mobile marching and combat, and if the multiple artillery types are modified in parallel, they can also carry larger caliber guns to maneuver along the railway line and be used as train guns.

Of course, it is not so exaggerated to deal with the guerrillas and unarmed civilians, and the 155mm plus howitzers are enough to harvest them.

A 155mm high-explosive shell is enough to wipe out all unprotected targets within a radius of 30 meters from the point of impact, and the killing range can be further increased to a radius of 50 meters by replacing them with anti-infantry shotguns. There are 7 artillery types that have been airborne, that is, a salvo can fire 7 shells, which is powerful enough to demolish an entire street in an instant.

How twisted and sick does it take to deal with ordinary infantry or even unarmed civilians with such a thing and a face as thick as the armor plates of a fortress to call it "combat"?

Tsk –

The sound of breaking the air with a metallic texture sounded, and the high-explosive bombs flying at supersonic speed emitted a scream similar to the whistle of a train, plunging headlong into the fleeing crowd, the snow and black soil on the ground expanded and exploded under the heat, and the fragments of human bodies and objects scattered and splashed in all directions, together with the shock wave and shrapnel, and the death was sprinkled on everything within the killing range, and before the corpse fragments could hit the ground, a new wave of shelling exploded again.

The tactics of the artillery type are extremely simple, first driving the crowd into an area, and then concentrating fire to cover it. Just like the hunting technique used in ancient times to drive the beast to the cliff with numerical superiority, forcing the beast to stumble and fall to its death, it is simple, effective, and completely deadly.

The broadcast interface is full of light spots that gather in groups, and the next second the entire point of light disappears - such a picture generally brings extreme comfort to the elf operators with obsessive-compulsive disorder. This not only satisfied their psychological need that "everything must be neat and tidy," but also all kinds of unhappiness and gloom since the start of the operation also disappeared along with the points of light, and the pressure and unhappiness accumulated before seemed to have subsided a lot.

Even Caspar, who had always had a calm face, seemed to be infected by the atmosphere and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

- So, how do you deal with this situation? Do you want to die and give up your immediate life in order to realize your lofty ideals, or do you want to expose yourself in order to carry out your ideals?

- Whichever one you choose, I'm more than welcome.

- We're friends, Roland.

His lips hung upwards and let out a burning breath, and Caspar smiled as viciously as a wolf.
