"If it is the kind of whistling sound that suddenly appears and then disappears suddenly, it means that the shell is not far from you. At this time, the most correct choice is to lie down immediately, otherwise you may be hit by shrapnel."
"If it is a low and rapid "Puff, Puff, Puff" sound, it means that the shell is right above your head and will fall at any time. If it is this kind of sound, it will be too late to do anything. Anyone who has heard this sound is either dead, Either he happened to be hiding in the crater of the previous shell, and he was lucky enough to escape."
"The howling sounds of different artillery shells are different. The howling sound of howitzer shells is pure and single, sharp and clear. The sharp whistling sound of rocket shells is also mixed with a human-like gasping sound. The whistling sound of mortars and mortar shells It's like the long strings of a violin."
It was the first time Zhang Fengyi heard that there were these new artillery pieces. The only artillery she had seen and heard of was the Ming Dynasty's five different sizes and models of general cannons.
This cannon has a flat bottom. Large diameter, short barrel. There are also ribs on the body tube. It looks like a little devil's pheasant neck with a machine gun.
Then there's the Folan cannon. A breech-loaded cannon with a blunderbuss has a fast rate of fire, strong firepower, and a short range.
She had also heard of the red cannon, but she had never seen it.
My grandpa said that the cannon was very heavy, weighing three to five thousand kilograms. The breech of the gun is round with a small ball.
She had never heard of Yang Fan's artillery. However, she firmly believed that these unheard of artillery must be very powerful.
"Brother Yang, do you have all these artillery pieces?"
"Except for the mortar, which has high requirements for steel and is still being tested, everything else has been developed, but it still takes time to equip the troops."
"Brother Yang, can your machine guns and cannons judge the danger from the sound of shooting?"
"All I know is that if you hear a swishing sound in your ears, like the wind blowing through the grass, that means the bullet is flying by your ear."
At this time, there was a loud noise in the distance, a huge plume of smoke rose, dirt and broken limbs, broken shield carts, broken weapons and stones were flying everywhere. Flying high into the sky, then falling like raindrops.
This time it landed in the middle of a dense infantry array. The shock wave swept across the surrounding firecrackers and spearmen. The advance of the right wing was immediately halted. The troops on the left were frightened and rioted when they saw the miserable situation on the right.
But soon, the cavalry supervising the battle rushed up and used whips to drive these people forward as quickly as possible.
A commander shouted loudly, don't stop, engage the enemy as soon as possible, don't stay here and get bombed.
Soon, everyone realized that they must engage the enemy as soon as possible, otherwise it would be more dangerous to stay here.
The speed of the left wing suddenly accelerated. Everyone tried to overcome the fear in their hearts and rushed forward at a faster speed.
The army on the right saw the left wing speed up. They immediately understood the intentions of the left-wing army. They also sped up.
Zhang Wudian sighed and said: "I have been fighting with the Mongolian tribes in the Southern Mongolia for more than ten years outside Yanmen Pass. Only today did I know how brave the Mongolian tribes in the Mongolia are. If we give them a chance, within thirty years, they will definitely win. Rise up. I’m afraid even the slaves will have a headache by then.”
Yang Fan smiled and said: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang, this is the last moment for the Mongols to shine. The Desert Mongolia is their last luck. After the Desert Mongolia is over, the Mongols will no longer have the possibility to rise. So, I give up." After Monan Mongolia, we must destroy all the Mongolian tribes in Mongolia. Only after the Great Wall can we achieve lasting peace and stability."
"Target, 2500 meters, fire!"
"Target, 2000 meters, fire!"
…
As Huang Hao continued to give orders, rounds of heavy high-explosive bombs fell on the array on the right wing. Every time a shell fell, it was a mess of liver and brain, and blood flowed like a river. The area of erosion is half a football field.
Even Yang Fan began to admire these people, and their enemies also admired their bravery.
One thousand five hundred meters later, after the heavy artillery opened fire, the 30mm cannons on both sides of the gunboat opened fire.
The sailors loaded the single-head bullet boxes and pulled out the canvas belts. The six heavy barrels of the Gatling cannon began to rotate, flames spurted out, and the bullet casings rolled down like rain.
Two machine guns opened fire on the left and right corps on both sides of the river.
At this time, the right wing had suffered more than a thousand casualties from heavy artillery. The rest of them were still charging faster. There was no hesitation.
Yang Fan knew that these people should be the elite soldiers of Taiji.
"Weigh anchor, move forward, let's rush up." Yang Fan suddenly ordered.
Because he saw that the 30mm single-head projectile of the machine gun was not very effective at a distance of 1,500 meters. At this distance, it could no longer penetrate the three-layer hard board of the shield vehicle.
Seeing that the shield car blocked the terrible firearms, the Mongols suddenly cheered.
The previous exchange of shots on the river embankment had frightened them out of their courage.
These death scythes, carrying the fire of hell, struck them repeatedly. Wherever it passed, everyone was beaten to pieces, even the horses were broken into pieces. They were so frightened that their livers and gallbladders were split apart.
At this time, they saw that the shield car had an effect. Just like them pushing shield carts and carrying wooden rafts to attack the castles of various city-states in the Western Regions. The firecrackers and small artillery fired from the city wall were blocked.
As long as they can restrain themselves, they will immediately eliminate their fear.
As they accelerated their charge, they saw that the ship also accelerated.
This puzzled them. If the ship stays there, wouldn't it be better to use the distance to fire more shots? Why are they hedging.
"Advance at full speed, insert between the two military formations, and use machine guns to sweep across their infantry." Yang Fan ordered.
Both steam engines burned heavy oil, and the fire started very quickly. As the transmission system was reconnected, visible to the naked eye, the gunboat suddenly started and then accelerated towards it.
"Stop firing the bow artillery and use the machine cannon to deal with them." Yang Fan said.
The speed of the gunboat is much faster than that of walking. Within a few minutes, the gunboat had rushed in front of them. There was a huge splash from the bow of the ship.
The barrels of the two machine guns rotated crazily, and dense fire nets sprayed towards both sides of the bank.
At this time, the wooden planks of the shield vehicle no longer functioned. In fact, they could block single-head bullets of less than 30 mm from 300 meters away.
The shield cart was hit with wood chips flying everywhere, countless sharp wooden thorns flying everywhere, and the slaves pushing the cart behind screamed in agony.
This single-head bullet has a lead-coated steel core and has extremely strong penetrating power. It directly penetrated the shield vehicle at this distance. The soldiers behind the car were hit one by one.
Suddenly, a blood mist rose up, and such a large-caliber bullet basically had a shattering effect when hitting a person.
The Mongolian officers shouted loudly and quickly threw the raft into the river.
Unfortunately, the gunboat has already rushed over. Under the crazy fire of machine guns, they were unable to get close to the river.
In the blink of an eye, the gunboat rushed through the shield car line and entered the middle of the two military formations on the left and right wings. The machine guns on both sides fired back and forth at the dense crowds on both sides.
Pieces of people carrying rafts fell to the ground. At this time, they had lost the protection of the shield car. Completely exposed to machine gun fire.
