The commander of these masters and armies is actually not Pang Ban, who came forward before, let alone veteran masters such as the red-clothed Dharma King, but this tall figure in iron armor, and everyone including the innate masters is in awe, and no one dares to challenge its majesty.

The reason for this is very simple, this master in iron armor is actually one of the hall masters of the Qing Court's Inhuman Palace, and he is also one of the thirteen Inhumans who made great efforts at the beginning of the Qing Court's founding of the country.

This Bull Demon God, according to historical records, is at least more than two hundred years old, and may reach three hundred years old, but he is wearing a heavy armor, his face is also covered by a face armor, and his breath is terrifying and deep, which is in line with the saying that God is as powerful as hell.

He stood on the flat ground, two meters eight tall, close to three meters, and the iron helmet on his head had double horns up to half a meter long, and there have always been rumors in the martial arts that these horns are not actually decorations on the helmet, but that the bull demon god himself has a pair of huge horns on his head, which is covered with a helmet.

In short, this bull demon god is a bull demon from the distant demon realm in the legends of the rivers and lakes, and was sent by the demon king to specifically plague the world.

At this time, as soon as the Bull Demon God spoke, all the masters around him bowed to show their reverence for the Bull Demon God.

After the hot air balloon rises into the sky, the people in the basket above use telescopes and ranging instruments to make observations, use flags to exchange information with the people below, and even draw a sketch of a military map with directions down the string from the basket for the commanders below.

After the operational staff officers summarized this information, they quickly produced a relatively complete and accurate map and passed it on to Li Xian and other officers.

After Li Xian finished reading it, he nodded.

"Pass the order down and let the rocket artillery units conduct covering fire on the opposite shore. Li Xian said.

The Huaxia Army has always had a fine tradition of using rocket artillery, and after the original Congreve rocket artillery was improved into Hale rocket artillery, the frequency of use of rocket artillery became even higher.

At this time, several rocket launchers were aimed at the opposite shore and began to fire.

The opposite side of Xianrendu looked like a flat wasteland at this time, but after yesterday's battle, the Huaxia army did not dare to take it lightly.

If the Qing court dug trenches on the opposite bank, ambushed a large number of corpses, and waited for the Huaxia army to cross the river to attack, it was possible to cause a lot of casualties to the Huaxia army.

This time, the Huaxia army used 100 rocket artillery pieces to fire artillery at open spaces on the opposite bank that might ambush the enemy, and the scene was extremely spectacular.

The first wave of 100 shells landed on the ground on the opposite bank, most of them only hit the open space, but there were still a few that just hit the traps or near the trenches, lifting the camouflage on the ground, revealing black holes in the ground, and some of the corpses were frightened and ran to the ground screaming.

Whether it is a white-armored soldier or another type of corpse soldier, the close-quarters combat effectiveness is okay, but there is a disadvantage that cannot be overcome, that is, it is made from the corpse to re-birth the spiritual intelligence, after all, there is no living person is smart, and there is no living person's will.

It's okay to execute simple orders such as charging and killing in peacetime, but you can't execute overly complex battle orders, and you're easily frightened, and it's easy to not know what to do when you encounter an emergency.

For example, now, when soldiers who have experienced the test of war encounter artillery bombardment, they will hide in the trenches and silently carry the artillery fire through, but these corpse soldiers cannot, startled by the explosion of shells at close range, and regardless of the previous orders and the bullet pressure of the officers, they jump directly out of the original hiding place, and spin around like headless flies.

However, the artillery of the Huaxia Army did not have time to deal with these corpse soldiers who jumped out, but continued to extend the artillery fire according to the established plan.

As more and more rockets fell on the opposite bank, combined with the observation of the balloon soldiers, the Qing court's arrangement on the opposite bank gradually appeared in front of the eyes of the Chinese army.

The small river crossed by the immortals was only 100 meters wide, while the effective range of the rocket artillery of the Huaxia Army was 1,300 meters, and the maximum range was 1,900 meters.

The commanders of the Qing court were extremely cunning, digging trenches in the open field and covering them with wooden planks and other materials, and then covering them with earth, so that it was impossible to detect these ambushes from a distance.

Unlike the jagged trenches that the Huaxia army likes to use, the trenches of the Qing court are relatively straight, so once a cannonball falls into the trench, the corpse soldiers within ten meters of the left and right will be affected.

However, a trench is a trench after all, and if these corpse soldiers defend against the trench, even if their long-range firepower is terrible, it will still form a huge resistance to the Huaxia army.

If the Huaxia army wants to break through the trench formation, artillery alone is not enough, and infantry must be engaged in close combat, so that casualties will inevitably rise in a straight line.

Fortunately, these corpse soldiers were not living people after all, and after being frightened, they jumped out and ran around, giving the Huaxia army an excellent opportunity.

The rate of fire of rocket artillery is six rounds a minute, and the number of rocket artillery brought by the Huaxia Army is extremely large, and the artillery shells are also sufficient; it fires 10,000 shells in half a day, completely plows the opposite bank, and finds out all the ambushes within the range of artillery fire, and also kills and injures a large number of corpses by the way.

Li Xian was not satisfied, and ordered the rocket artillery troops to fire another 10,000 shells, killing and injuring the corpse soldiers who jumped out with all their might, until the only remaining corpse soldiers retreated under the command of the monks of the Inhuman Hall and withdrew from the range of the rocket artillery.

This artillery bombardment killed seven or eight thousand corpse soldiers before and after, that is to say, the tens of thousands of white-armored soldiers who were originally ambushed on the opposite bank lost more than seventy percent, close to eighty percent, and only two or three thousand corpse soldiers were left to retreat smoothly.

This shelling looked at the fierce and cool of the Cooljack, but Li Xian was secretly distressed in his heart.

The barrels and artillery carriages of rocket artillery are very cheap, but the shells are really not cheap, and the ex-factory price of military factories is three taels and two dollars per shell, that is, close to five oceans.

Thinking of the shelling just now, using up 20,000 shells before and after, and spending at least 100,000 oceans, Li Xian's heart twitched a little, but this was a necessary consumption, if these corpse soldiers were left to threaten the troops crossing the river, the losses would only be greater.

"The artillery was on standby, and the special combat team was ready to cross the river, cross the river to establish a foothold, and at the same time erect a pontoon bridge. Li Xian gave the order with an expressionless face, and the staff officers and communication soldiers below naturally passed on the order quickly.

"This Li Xian is such a big hand!" In the relatively secluded forest at the foot of the mountain on the other side of the river, the red-clothed Dharma King looked at the mess on the bank of the river, and lost his mind for a while.

At the beginning, the red-clothed Dharma King was almost killed in such a dense artillery bombardment, and he still has lingering palpitations.

"Hell, where did this Li Xian get so many artillery pieces and shells. Magician Pang Ban looked at it and felt a little incredible.

The industrial level of the Huaxia Army has long entered the era of steam engines, and the amount of resources that can be invested on the battlefield far exceeds the imagination of people like Pang Ban, who are still living in the feudal era.
