Chapter Eighty-Nine
These dozen or so Yanlong Kingdom soldiers were rescued by Lu Qiancheng in the encirclement of the coalition soldiers just now, because Lu Qiancheng rushed up the mountain too fast, they couldn't keep up with Lu Qiancheng, but they were still desperately rushing up the mountain.

And when they rushed to the mountain, they just found the artillery of the coalition forces!
The importance of artillery in an infantry unit is self-evident, and an artillery with less than 100 men is often no less than a few hundred men in a battalion.
Ferocious firepower, as well as the ability to suppress enemy fire from a distance, as well as artillery support for your own soldiers, can even change the course of a battle.
This is the role of artillery!
And it is precisely because the role of artillery is too great, so when the confrontation, the two sides always want to get rid of each other's artillery as soon as possible, so artillery is also a very dangerous type of troops, and it is precisely because of this that the position of artillery is generally behind the combat team, or it is a relatively safe hinterland.
Now they are coming from behind, just in time to run into the enemy's artillery team, such a good opportunity, how could they let it go.
Either don't be bumped into by me, or if you do, then you can enjoy our hospitality!
A dozen guns beckoned together, although there were not many, but in the face of these soldiers who could only control the cannons, and it was a surprise attack, they still took a big advantage.
A burst of strafing has already taken away the identities of more than a dozen artillerymen, and artillery is a very precious class, because not everyone can control artillery.
Controlling the cannon is not just loading the shell as imagined, and then hitting it out, he also has to adjust the focus and coordinates, otherwise even if your cannonball hits, but it is 108,000 miles away from the target you want to hit, it is useless!
The soldiers of the Yanlong Kingdom understand this, so they don't care about other people, the first thing to fight is those artillery, as long as the artillery is killed, then their artillery is just a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron!
"What's going on? What about the artillery? Didn't you give the order to the artillery to open fire? Why didn't you move!"
The commander of the coalition army waited for a minute, but did not notice any movement, and Lu Qiancheng was still raging among the coalition soldiers like a tiger and wolf.
"Report to the regiment commander, our rear was attacked by an enemy force, and the place where they attacked happened to be where the artillery was located, and now our men have gone over to support, but our artillery has suffered heavy losses!"
The herald spoke, his voice getting quieter and quieter!
"Bastard!"
The commander of the coalition was furious when he heard the news and lost his artillery, so what else could he do to deal with Lu Qiancheng, who was wreaking havoc in his ranks. Do you rely on those ordinary soldiers?
Funny!
"Immediately, at all costs, destroy the team that attacked us, and no matter what, protect the remaining artillery!"
The commander of the coalition was a little angry, but he had not lost his mind, and now he still knew that those artillery were the key, and if he protected them, he would still have a chance.
But if, on the contrary, all those artillerymen are killed, then his mission can basically be said to have failed.
Without artillery, he basically had no way to take Lu Qiancheng, and in this way, he would have no way to attack that secret base, let alone seize the research results or destroy those things.
Unexpectedly, the barracks at the foot of the mountain, which they thought was the main obstacle, became the easiest to solve, and the mountain, which they thought would not have many defenders, became the stumbling block that tripped them up.
In fact, there were no guards on the mountain, if it weren't for such a rebellious Lu Qiancheng, they would probably be standing somewhere in that secret base by now, and they might have been ready to turn around and retreat.
But now, because of a Lu Qiancheng, it completely disrupted their plans and made them unable to advance or retreat!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
A series of explosions came from the rear of the coalition forces.
It's where the artillery is located!
When the commander of the joint corps heard this series of explosions, his heart suddenly felt like ashes, this time the mission could basically be customized!
With such a large-scale explosion, those cannons and those artillery, it is estimated that there is not much scum left.
Originally, he had sent people over to support, but the soldiers of the Yanlong Kingdom saw that the enemy suddenly came over with so many people to support, and knew that it might be difficult for them to destroy the remaining artillery.
But it was impossible to let them retreat like this, and in a short time they could not think of any better way, and they only thought of dying with the enemy.
Anyway, there is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, and if they continue to fight, the final result will be death, and they will all die, so think about how to die to maximize the benefits!
Next to the cannons were large boxes piled up one by one, and these boxes were full of shells, and if they detonated these large boxes, they didn't know what it would like, and they wanted to give it a try!
Luckily, they succeeded in the end, and the few soldiers who were still alive each with a few grenades rushed desperately towards the big boxes, and some of them used their last strength to pull out the tips of the grenades and rush towards the big boxes, even though they had been shot several times!
Explosions hit everyone's eardrums one after another, telling everyone the outcome of the battle.
"Retreat!"
Knowing that victory was hopeless, the commander of the coalition army decisively gave the order to withdraw his troops, and there was no need to continue the fight, which would only increase casualties.
And in order to complete this mission, he and his troops have paid a lot, but they didn't expect to fail in the end!
Moreover, he has a whole regiment of more than 2,000 people, and there are less than 1,000 people left who can still jump around now, and more than half of them have been killed or wounded.
And in this case, their wounded are very dangerous, the lightly wounded are fine, as long as they can walk, they can take them on the road together, and most of the seriously wounded or soldiers who hurt their feet are estimated to not survive.
It's not that he's ruthless, but it's the trend of the situation, and since he can't complete the task, he has to switch his mind immediately.
Now all he has to think about is how to bring back as many of the remaining soldiers as possible, and he, as the head of a regiment, has this obligation!
