Chapter 524 The Star Luo Empire is Insufficient in Food and Grass
And if the enemy bombards us with artillery, because of the narrowness of the trenches, the shells fall from the oblique top, and it is difficult to fall into the trenches. At most, they will only attack the back of the trenches. As long as they do not get together, our soldiers will not appear in a large area. damage.
As for the problem of poisonous smoke from artillery grenades, our soldiers are equipped with gas masks, and the white phosphorus toxin is not a problem.And, one more thing. "
Qian Nawei had a sly look on her face.
"The soldiers in the trench fortifications usually don't show their faces in the trenches, and it will be difficult for the enemy to estimate the number of our troops in the trenches, so that they can set up suspicious formations, and the enemy will not dare to attack easily again.
In addition, the criss-cross trenches and the undulating terrain are very unfavorable for the cavalry to run quickly. If the enemy wants to use the cavalry to break through in the opposite direction, it will be impossible. "
Qian Nawei looked at the crowd again with firm eyes.
"My idea is to let the front-line soldiers dig trenches to prevent enemy artillery bombardment, and then set up obstacles in the open space in front of the trenches. When the enemy's food and grass are exhausted or even a mutiny occurs, our army will attack across the board and defeat them in one fell swoop."
Qian Nawei looked at the crowd and asked with a smile.
"how?"
Many officers glanced at each other and whispered to each other...
A few seconds later, many officers looked at Qian Nawei and nodded.
"At the end of the day, I thought it was feasible."
"What the coach said makes sense, and we agree."
"His Royal Highness Prince Wei is right, indeed..."
Seeing that everyone agreed, Qian Nawei stood up and issued an order.
"The order was sent that the air force bombed the forest south of Xilu City again with high-explosive bombs, plowed all the ground [-] miles south of Xilu City, and the First Infantry Army set up a position on the left [-] miles away.
Soldiers at the front must build fortifications and dig trenches in strict accordance with the drawings. The Second Infantry Corps has set up a defensive position on the right flank. Like the First Infantry Corps, all frontline soldiers are not allowed to pitch tents and spend the night in the pits of the trenches. "
"Yes, the last will obey!"
All senior officers stood up and responded solemnly.
After the military meeting was over, Qian Nawei went to the Royal Palace of Xilu City, and found a unique room as his exclusive bedroom, while the other senior officers returned to their own troops to convey Qian Nawei's orders.
Time passed, and it was soon afternoon.
Xilu City, south of the mountain forest.
In the sky, huge White Eagle 36 heavy bombers rumbled over in a triangular formation. During the flight, they opened the bomb bay door under the belly of the aircraft and dropped huge aerial bombs one after another.
"Bang bang bang...!"
The earth trembled and roared violently, and the splashed mud and stones were tens of meters high. Even if it was more than ten miles away, it could be clearly seen by the naked eye.
A large number of trees fell, mud and sand were blown up, and the ground became loose.
Gunpowder smoke filled the air and continued to rise, dimming the sun.
The large-scale bombing of the Wuhun Empire...started again!
The bombing lasted for a whole day. One day later, a large number of Wuhun Empire infantry marched southward in trucks, pulling artillery, and did not stop until twenty miles away.
It is reasonable for Qian Nawei to choose a distance of [-] miles. The artillery invented by Qian Feier has a maximum range of [-] or [-] miles. The distance of [-] miles can prevent the headquarters in Xilu City from being attacked by Tang San and the others. shelling.
South of Xilu City, on a hillside twenty miles away, in the afternoon.
A large number of Wuhun Empire infantrymen wielded shovels, one shovel after another dug up the ground, and shoveled the soil to the south.
One after another, winding trenches have been dug, and the longitudinal direction is a traffic trench in the shape of "Xun".
Such a communication trench can not only keep the front and rear trenches in touch, but also prevent the enemy from seeing the back of the soldiers when moving, killing two birds with one stone.
Because considering that Tang San and the others may have already mastered the use of artillery, this time, Qiannawei did not place the artillery at the front of the front line, but six miles away from the front!
At such a distance, if Tang San and the others led an army to attack, they would not be able to seize the artillery again, because it was out of sight, and they would not be able to pose a threat to the artillery.
Then, would Tang San and the others infer the direction of the artillery to strike based on the trajectory of the shell?
Qian Nawei believes that this is very unrealistic and basically impossible.
The speed of artillery shell ejection reaches hundreds of meters per second, far exceeding the speed of sound.
With such a speed, the human naked eye can't see clearly at all, how can it be distinguished?In addition to being able to infer the general direction, the specific location, distance, etc. are all unknown.
In such a situation, the Wuhun Empire's artillery can be fired at the Star Luo Empire's army on the high ground of the mountain, annihilating its vital forces.
As for the cooperation between the rear artillery and the forward infantry, Qian Nawei asked people to pull a few telephone lines separately, and equipped them with direct-connected telephones for communication.
On the northern hillside of the frontier, Qian Nawei also stipulated that all soldiers must dig the ground into a "terrace" shape.
The flat part of the terraces was used for the forward company and the command post of the thousand-man regiment. If Tang San captured, the terraces with a certain height difference could greatly slow down the cavalry's charge speed, and would also hinder the infantry's advance.
Of course, this kind of obstacle also has obstacles for the soldiers of the Spirit Empire, but the soldiers of the Spirit Empire are the active side, holding the crossbow of the god arm, shooting while retreating, the speed is not fast, which means it has no effect.
After the fortifications were dug, some flying soul masters carried large boxes and flew in the open space in front of the trenches.
They opened the wooden box and let some of the substances in the wooden box fall to the ground as they flew.
These are some large and small metal objects, all in the shape of a triangle, one big and one small, each foot is very sharp, but not sharp.
These sharp corners are covered with reddish rust.
If Qian Linjue was here, she would be surprised, isn't this a barbed wire?
Yes, it is the large-scale military hidden weapon, the barbed wire!
Because it is used for large-scale military use, the barbed wire of the Wuhun Empire is quite rough, just four iron horns, three of which fell on the ground to be laid flat.
One corner protrudes upwards, and if a person or a horse steps on it, it will be pierced through the sole of the foot.
The caltrops on the ground are divided into two types, large and small, and they are intricately mixed together. Among them, the length of each corner of the large caltrops is about three inches.
This is of course used to pierce the horse's legs. The horse's hoof itself has a thick cuticle, just like a human fingernail. If the caltrops are not big enough and the horns are not long enough, they will not be able to cause damage to the horse.
The remaining small caltrops are only about an inch and a half at each corner.
This is used to pierce people. The length of one and a half inches is enough to pierce through the sole of a shoe and penetrate into the sole of the foot. If you step on it, you will definitely have to stop because of the unbearable pain.
In the sky, numerous flying soul masters of the Wuhun Empire flew back and forth busily, scattering all the barbed caltrops in front of the fortifications.
At this time, to the south of Xilu City, tens of miles away, in a forest near a city named "Jia City", Dai Mubai was also discussing countermeasures with Tang San and others.
The Star Luo Empire barracks, the large tent of the Chinese army.
Dai Mubai sat high on the first seat, he looked at Yu Linglong, then at Tang San.
"Seventh Sister, Little San, we have avoided the large-scale air raid of the Wuhun Empire, what should we do next?"
Inside the camp, Tang San and Yu Linglong looked at each other, then nodded.
Yu Linglong turned to Dai Mubai, a pleasant voice sounded in the camp.
"Brother Dai, my personal opinion is that although we have seized a few cannons from the Spirit Empire, we still cannot compete with the Spirit Empire on the frontal battlefield. We should continue to focus on guerrilla attacks, ambushes, and harassment..."
Dai Mubai nodded in agreement, Yu Linglong's opinion was completely consistent with what he thought in his heart.
Inside the tent, Yu Linglong wanted to continue talking, but at this moment, the curtain of the tent opened suddenly, and a soldier rushed in.
"Report to the coach! I..."
The soldier's face was a bit perplexed, his face was still a little sweaty, he was a little scared when he saw Dai Mubai, and lowered his head.
Yu Linglong was interrupted by this soldier, her face was displeased.
In the first place, Dai Mubai frowned, he looked at the soldier, and snorted.
"Didn't you see that we are holding a military meeting? What's your business? Tell me quickly."
The gates of Dai Mubai's camp are guarded by the direct soul masters of the White Tiger Sect. Normally, if there is no emergency, the guards will not let soldiers enter during military meetings.
The soldier glanced at the surrounding senior officers and Tang San and the others, gritted his teeth, and punched Dai Mubai.
"Reporting to the commander, our logistics department has not delivered food and grass for many days in a row. Our food is not much left. If we last another ten days at most, we will be exhausted!"
"what?!"
Dai Mubai stood up abruptly, his four evil pupils opened wide, and his face was full of disbelief.
In the first place, Xue Beng wore a golden knife on his waist, and frowned slightly.
"Prince Mubai, could it be that the Spirit Empire attacked our army's supply line? Our army's supply line is far away, stretching for hundreds of miles. There is a high possibility that the Spirit Empire will sneak attack on the logistics."
On the other side, Tang San immediately refuted.
"It's impossible. I arranged for Tangmen flying soul masters to monitor our army's logistics supply line at all times. If the food delivery line is attacked, they will inform me immediately. It is impossible that there will be no movement at all."
Tang San stepped down, the rat whiskers on Ma Hongjun's face trembled, and he spoke casually.
"Third Brother, could it be that the Spirit Empire went around behind the flying soul master in charge of monitoring? Douluo Dalu is so big, who knows?"
Ma Hongjun just said these words casually, without thinking about them seriously at all, but these words were heard in Tang San's ears, but Tang San frowned deeply.
What Hong Jun said is not unreasonable, if the Wuhun Empire goes around further, it can indeed avoid flying soul masters and attack the food delivery route...
only……
Tang San turned his eyes to one side.
If the grain transportation line was attacked, why is there no news at all?If the other party burned the food and grass, someone should come to report, but now there is no news...
