Qianlong: Qing Dynasty?What about my Daqing?

"Ready! Let go!"

Major General Luo Sheng'an, Commander of the Artillery Brigade of Zhengxi Corps, waved forward with the flag in his hand high!
As a descendant of Lanfang Luo's family, Luo Sheng'an entered the Whampoa Military Academy to study artillery as early as the Battle of Guangzhou.

Now he commanded 130 howitzers and launched an intensive artillery attack on the Russian land confiscation ahead.

Such intensive artillery fire may be the first time in this world.

130 three-inch caliber howitzers fired high-explosive grenades filled with yellow powder.

With the universal armament of rifled guns.

The artillery with a very urgent range in this era is almost becoming the support firepower of the rifle.

However, the artillery of the Ming army obviously has a much longer range than the artillery of the Russian army.

Although the range of the three-inch howitzer is not much longer than the effective range of the rifled gun, the range is even shorter in the case of projectiles.

Therefore, it can only be placed at the front, relying on infantry bunkers for salvo.

even so.

The salvo of 130 cannons still made the whole world tremble.

Pieces of sparks exploded on the positions of the Russian army.

Suddenly, the forward position of the Russian army became a sea of ​​flames.

The air wave formed by the explosion blew up countless smoke and dust, obscuring the line of sight.

It was the first time that the unlucky Russian infantry encountered such a violent shelling.

Quite a few were lying on the trenches trembling, and then were blasted to pieces by grenades falling from the sky.

They worked so hard to arrange barbed wire fences and deer villages, all of which were blown to pieces by grenades.

The Russian artillery group is also counterattacking.

It's just that their flowering bombs can't be fired that far, and in order to avoid being hit by the howitzers with a longer range of the Ming army, which caused their mortar positions that fired flowering bombs to be flattened by artillery fire, they just arranged some solid bullets at the front. A straight-fire gun for direct fire.

The solid shells fired by these artillery can't go over the parapet and bunker, posing a threat to the Ming army artillery group hiding behind the bunker and shooting curved shots.

"Hurry up! Climb forward!"

"Brothers, hurry up!"

The Ming army infantry who launched the first attack had already left the bunker.

Under the cover of artillery fire, crawl forward.

The officers and non-commissioned officers shouted loudly.

soon.

In the first attack group, soldiers climbed under the first barbed wire fence, and some soldiers took out the vise they carried with them, and just pinched it off with the sharp barbed wire.

The barbed wire produced by these Russians is of average strength, and it was broken in one fell swoop.

On the contrary, those officers and soldiers who propped up half their bodies, or squatted up to clamp the wire were injured a lot by the densely flying bullets.

"Squad leader! Squad leader save me"

"The squad leader is about to die, give my pension to my wife and son!"

"Old Huang! Old Huang! Open your eyes!"

In Jin Biao's ear, similar voices came and went.

Someone died.

It's Lao Huang.

A former Ministry of Internal Affairs coater.

But he was lucky.

From now on, his old Huang's house is no longer a coating, but the home of heroes of the Ming Dynasty, and no one dares to call his family a coating.
Jin Biao thought.

The firepower of the Russian army is very fierce.

After all, they also knew what would happen if the Ming army broke through the three barbed wire fences.

But the action of the Ming army is also very fast.

In an instant.

The first barbed wire has all been breached.

The second barbed wire was also broken a lot by the vise.

At this moment.

The breech-loading guns equipped by the Ming army have also entered the effective range.

Many soldiers of the Ming Army pushed the rifles on their backs forward one after another, lying on the ground, unbolted the guns, put in the bullets, and waited for the order to fire.

Jin Biao lay quietly on the ground, unable to see clearly ahead.

This distance is still a bit far, and the visibility is very low.

Free fire is pretty bad, so everyone is ready for platoon.

Overwhelm opponents with the vigor of a volley.

Try to break through the second barbed wire.

Several lieutenant colonels who crawled forward with the frontline troops saw that many soldiers were already in position.

Immediately issue the firing order!

With the sharp whistle sounded.

Jin Biao who got the order pulled the trigger without hesitation!
At the same time, more than 1000 breech-loading guns exploded together!

On the straggler line of the Ming army, a burst of flames, large and small, swallowed flames in the dark night.

at the same time.

The soldiers who were queuing up to fire guns in the trenches of the Russian army on the opposite side suddenly seemed to be electrocuted.

shaking.

All of a sudden, there was a large piece of it.

The screams came one after another.

The fallen corpses suddenly crowded the Russian trenches.

However, the rise of the Russians to become a world power is not so easy to deal with.

They still have that vigor.

Those soldiers who were not shot continued to reload and return fire under the orders of the officers.

The Ming army's rear-loading guns rang out in bursts.

In about ten seconds, you can fire a round of guns.

The bullets rushed forward like raindrops.

The Russian soldiers were swept down one by one in rows.

The formation quickly became disorganized.

The uniformity of the platoon guns is also not as good as before.

The entire army formation gradually became chaotic, and the platoon of guns could not continue.

Only the sparse Russian soldiers fired back actively.

"Gold Label! Cut the barbed wire!!"

Jin Biao, who was shooting his head down, heard the order from his immediate superior.

Let him break the barbed wire against the rain of Russian bullets!

Damn it!
This job is filled with human life.

Jin Biao scolded, but still jumped up, took out the vise and began to cut off the barbed wire one by one.

He is also a military household who has taken Emperor Zhu's 40 mu of fertile land in the northeast, which is a huge fortune, even if he sells his life, it is worth it - at least his newly born boy can live comfortably for the rest of his life.

"Okay! Break through another barbed wire fence!" Yang Yuchun put down the telescope in his hand and cheered. "Tiger Li is still brave!"

Li Sheng, the former commander of the Guards Cavalry Brigade, was nicknamed Li Huo because of his bravery in battle.

Chen Dewang also put down the binoculars and nodded slightly: "Now we can break through to the front of the Russian army. At this distance, the power of the rear-loading gun will be fully exerted. The Russians who use the front-loading gun need to stand to reload quickly, and The rate of fire is only one-sixth of that of the breech-loading gun...the outcome of this war has no suspense..."

Fish farmer Hucun smiled slightly: "I haven't won yet."

He pointed at the Russian army's position opposite, "They have restored order. Apparently reinforcements have arrived, and the Raksha Ghost's cannons have also started firing shotgun shells. The bitter battle is yet to come!"

Chen Dewang nodded.

But there are some things he didn't say very clearly.

Victory in this war.

It is a victory for industrialization.

Ming was able to produce enough steel, enough breech-loading guns and bullets, artillery and shells to build railways to Central Asia.

Victory in this war.

It means that there will never be any possibility of nomadic tribes or agricultural countries defeating industrial countries like Ming Dynasty (end of this chapter)
