Alien Empire Total War

"Load the artillery and prepare for battle!"

"Move! Move me! Gentlemen, move your big fat ass!"

The Nava Mountain artillery position has become busy for a while. Whether it is the artillery of the First Battle Infantry Regiment or the howitzer artillery recruited later, they adjust the firing angle of the gun barrel and load the artillery with the command of their respective officers. .

The 12-pound infantry guns equipped by the Seventh Brigade far exceeded the 6-pound infantry guns generally equipped by the enemy, so when the enemy cavalry units first appeared in their field of vision, they had unknowingly entered their artillery killing range. Inside, the artillerymen looked eagerly at the galloping enemy cavalry, eager to try.

Although they wanted to shoot the enemy right away, the commander stood in front of them, so their officer had to ask Charlie's advice. After hearing the artillery officer's question, the latter only thought for a second before agreeing. down.

"Let's give our enemies an unforgettable dismount, and let them experience the power of our artillery." He said.

After getting Charlie's permission, the artillerymen adjusted their final shots. After a few seconds, only a few deafening roars sounded from the mountainside. Charlie felt that the ground under his feet was shaking violently. At the same time, several black The shadow flew from one end of his line of sight to the other at high speed, heading straight for the enemy cavalry hundreds of meters away!

The distance of several hundred meters was approaching in an instant. Two or three seconds after the rebel cavalry heard the sound of the cannon, eight solid shells flew in front of them, and one of the shells smashed into the crowd, blocking the block. The knights and war horses on its flight track were smashed to pieces, and the screams of people and the neighing of horses filled the cavalry brigade for a while.

The leading commander, Arsette Payne, looked at a straight **** road that had been ploughed out in astonishment. He was stunned for a few seconds and then quickly reacted. He hurriedly turned his horse and shouted loudly: "Being bombarded! Retreat! !retreat!"

As he shouted, he turned and evacuated while driving the warhorse toward the road when he came. He was not stupid enough to charge against the enemy's artillery. The reason why he came here first was just to check the enemy's firepower, but he didn't expect the enemy to charge. His artillery was able to hit and injure his subordinates at such a long distance—if I remember correctly, the artillery that was previously deployed in Nawa Mountain was mainly a 6-pounder, and should not be able to shoot this far.

In any case, he directly withdrew from the battlefield, merged with the infantry coming from the rear, and shared his experience and doubts with the two infantry commanders. Although the two infantry brigade commanders subconsciously thought that Payne was hit by artillery, he appeared hallucinations, but decided to pay more attention to the artillery positions on the mountainside.

No matter how many artillery pieces are deployed in the artillery positions, there will be no small threat to their next attack. More importantly, they are now facing the same confusion as Charlie before. Their artillery can't be directly at this angle. If they threatened the enemy's artillery positions on the mountainside, they could only launch a storm against the threat of the enemy's artillery.

Before attacking, they decided to study the next tactics...

……

At 13:00, the battle started.

In the distant sound of the horns of attack, the rebel infantrymen dressed in various costumes barely maintained their line and marched towards the Nawa Mountain at a chaotic pace. From the perspective of the mountainside, the enemy posed three long lines. There were several infantry guns drawn by packhorses on both sides of the three infantry fronts.

Ok?

Where have the enemy cavalry gone?

Finding that something was wrong, Charlie picked up the binoculars to observe the battlefield in doubt, but he never found the figure of the enemy cavalry, which made him a little worried.

While Charlie was looking for the enemy cavalry, the eight 12-pounder infantry guns around him and the sixteen guns at the foot of the mountain roared again at almost the same time, and the heavy solid shells made a screeching sound like death's grin. Fly straight to the slowly advancing rebel infantry line.

The first round of exploratory shelling failed to cause many casualties to the enemy. Most of the twenty-four shells hit the soft ground, then bounced forward and flew a certain distance along the inertia, and only lay quietly after losing power. in the crater.

Well-trained artillerymen quickly learned a lot from the first round of exploratory shelling, and began to adjust the angle of the muzzle, and took the water-soaked tamping pipe to clean the barrel, and then poured gunpowder into it and put in the shells. After the second reloading, dozens of seconds later, the artillery fire ignited again, and the artillery shells also smashed into the crowd with a sharp air-piercing sound.

Through the observation of the binoculars, Charlie saw with his own eyes that the cannonball directly ran a **** path in the crowd after it fell into the crowd. The castration remained unabated, and several soldiers were killed and wounded one after another before they landed on the soft soil.

The artillery not only brought a lot of casualties to the attacking rebels~www.readwn.com~ It was more of a blow to the morale of the rebel soldiers. I watched my comrades beside me being smashed to pieces by the artillery, **** flesh. The block even splashed on himself, making even the bravest soldier timid.

After only two rounds of artillery fire, there was a lot of riots in the advancing rebel army. Charlie saw that many soldiers began to refuse to advance, and even wanted to retreat to escape the battlefield, but they were quickly blocked by the officers and the supervising team. The bullet pressed down, and reluctantly continued to march forward with the rifle.

Perhaps because of the deterrence of the supervising team, or the promise of the rebel commander, there were no more riots in the next few rounds of shelling by the rebel soldiers. within the range of a 7-pounder howitzer.

Now, the disaster really begins.

bang bang bang-

After the rebel infantry entered the firing range, the eight howitzers deployed behind the infantry artillery finally burst out with their first roar since they came to this world. The infantry guns fly towards the rebel infantry with completely different ballistic trajectories and smashing sounds.

The eight artillery shells did not fall into the crowd, but exploded violently above the heads of the rebel infantry, and scattered countless sharp shrapnel to the surrounding soldiers like scattered flowers. Almost the second after the explosion sounded, they were exploded. The soldiers in the surrounding area screamed and fell to the ground, causing casualties several times that of the previous solid shells!

Of course, due to the instability of howitzer technology, not every blooming shell can kill the enemy perfectly. At least four of the eight shells exploded early in flight, and two more shells fell into the crowd. Zhongcai was able to explode, causing secondary damage to the surrounding enemies!
