The height of six meters is two floors. Many restaurants in the capital are three stories high. Now this airship is almost shooting over people's heads!
It is rare to see such a strange landscape on a real battlefield. Will a Gatling heavy machine gun fire at the enemy from a distance of six meters? This is simply not possible.
If the infantry assault reaches a distance of six meters, the machine gunners will have to retreat and escape, because at this distance of a few meters, the infantry can kill a machine gun position by outflanking it!
But today there was an unexpected close-range massacre. The height was not horizontal. Even if the airship shot six meters away from you, how could your infantry still jump up?
He has no power to fight back, even if someone hits him on the head, there is nothing he can do!
Hot bullet casings splashed from the air like rain, covering the corpses layer by layer. The six Gatling barrels had already been red-red, and the bullet chains were added one after another. In just ten minutes, In that time, more than 20,000 rounds of ammunition have been used up!
The Manchu and Qing Dynasties had never seen such a firepower-saturated attack. The bullets were poured out as if they were free. Many soldiers were not killed with one bullet, but with a whole bullet belt cutting people alive from the chest!
As for the sieve-like ones, there are even more!
There was a bullet hole in the chest and a bloody hole at the mouth of the bowl in the back. The skull behind the forehead was shot to pieces!
Super saturation firepower massacre is a waste of bullets. One bullet can kill a person, but you have to use thirty or forty rounds. Isn't this a waste of money?
But waste is waste, and the shock of this kind of massacre to the enemy is simply devastating. The living people watched their comrades being swept into pieces of minced meat, and there were no intact corpses!
The two fire dragons took the fire warehouse as a circle and shot randomly. Any place with a dense crowd will receive special care. The efficiency of harvesting life is like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, and a sharp knife cutting wheat!
No matter how well-disciplined the army is, it cannot withstand this kind of massacre, and it is a one-sided massacre! Cries have already been heard in the Qing army!
"Retreat...retreat quickly...These are all heavenly soldiers and generals, how can we fight..."
There are also some lunatics who have been stunned by the smell of blood. They have forgotten their fear and are shooting rifles into the sky desperately to fight back!
But all counterattacks were in vain. The pod of the Zeppelin airship was covered with a centimeter-thick steel plate, which was simply not something that rifle bullets could penetrate!
As for the pod, it is even more futile. This is a rigid airship. The airbag is covered with thick asphalt, rubber, linen and other protective layers. It is very elastic and is not afraid of bullets!
Many bullets were fired, and the warheads were embedded in the rubber layer, but they still could not penetrate the air bag!
It doesn't matter even if it penetrates the airbag. The Zeppelin airship draws on the principle of watertight cabins on ships. The airbags are divided into different areas. Even if one is destroyed, the airship can still fly in the air!
The only way to deal with Zeppelin airships is specially modified anti-aircraft guns. It is simply impossible to expect bullets to deal with such weapons that are beyond the times!
The weak counterattack was like a mosquito biting an elephant. The crisp sound of bullets hitting the steel plate pointed out the target to the machine gunner. After several rounds of focused counterattacks with tongues of fire, no one dared to shoot and resist!
Yi Xuan of Dongjiao Minxiang is now the highest-ranking commander on the battlefield. Yi Xin was so angry that he passed out. Prince Chun had to face such a situation alone again!
He suddenly remembered how he had begged Xiao Letian not to enter the city, at least not to let the army enter the city!
But what Xiao Letian gave him was deep shame, and his persuasion was of no use at all!
Today, history is repeating itself again. Chinese airships are slapping Manqing in the face, making them bloody just like before!
"Fire the cannon! Wuwuwu... you damned, fire the cannon! Isn't there a red cannon on Chongwen Gate? Are you stupid!"
What Yixuan said is indeed a solution. There are no cannons on the ground, but there are cannons on the tower of Chongwenmen! That was the red cannon cast during the Kangxi period!
The city wall of the capital is more than three feet high, and the red cannon mounted on it can just hit the airship. Although it is not a gun, it is still powerful when hit with solid iron bars!
Even if you can't destroy this damn airship, you can still scare them away as long as the cannon goes off!
"Why not fire? What are these grandchildren doing?"
The grandchildren didn't think anything, they couldn't think about things anymore, everything that happened today was beyond people's imagination, they were all stupid!
Ancient people could not understand what the air force was, because in their hearts the sky was the place of the gods, and the gods were invincible!
Don’t laugh at ancient people’s secret messages. In fact, people in the 21st century are no better!
In Xiao Letian's previous life, humans were still full of mystery about the universe. It was the place where various alien intelligent life forms lived. There were legends about flying saucers all over the world!
If one day, a huge alien battleship suddenly lands on the earth, the strong psychological pressure will be equally devastating to the people on earth!
People during the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty could not understand such a new thing as the air force!
People in the 21st century are also unable to understand alien creatures that are capable of space navigation!
The feelings are the same, the hearts are the same, it’s just each other!
"Turn the muzzle! What are we doing? Idiots are in a daze..." Finally someone on the city wall cried and shouted. The group of people who were the first to wake up used all their strength to move the red cannon. !
The backward defense system highlights their incompetence today. The muzzles of the heavy cannons are all facing the south city outside, and none of them are facing the inner city. Now if you want to fire, you have to rely on manpower to move the cannons!
However, the city defense cannons cast during the Kangxi period were too heavy. The weight of such cannons set up on the top of the city exceeded 250 kilograms!
How could it be so easy to move? More than a dozen soldiers had to be tied up with hemp ropes and then carried with poles. Without six strong laborers to lift the cannon together, you would never be able to move the semicolon!
"Hurry up, hurry up... too many of our brothers have died. If we don't fire cannons to scare the enemy, we will all have to act according to military law tomorrow..."
"Tie up the hemp rope, wrap each slip knot three times...quickly,quickly...where is the pole, bring the pole..."
There was a lot of chaos on top of the city. Some people bumped into torches, some lost poles, and some couldn't find hemp ropes... These soldiers guarding the city may have never had such training in their lives. Who would have thought that one day they would turn around the cannons? The cannon muzzles are blasting into the inner city!
In the distance, the Zeppelin airship has lowered four ladders. The special operations team members climbed up the ladders. The wounded soldiers also had special hanging baskets to transport them!
One, two... ten, and soon one-third of the special operations team members boarded the airship!
It was safe once on the airship. The angry special forces finally got their ammunition supply. The sniper opened the bullet box, grabbed a lot of bullets and started shooting everywhere!
Any place that cannot be covered by heavy machine guns will be cleaned up by snipers, and the Manchu and Qing soldiers will be eliminated one after another in the sound of gunfire!
