Humanity's wars are no longer something that can be won with enthusiasm in the chaotic and savage era. War has become a sophisticated scientific machine. Human beings work together to control this machine to unleash the power of destroying the world!
The entire gun mount of the 210 train gun is protected by armor as thick as two to three centimeters. The operator walks through the narrow passage and goes up and down the steel stairs.
The powerful hydraulic transmission device slowly moves the cannon to adjust the angle. The speed of the train has slowed down at this moment, and the black muzzle is exposed in the shooting hole protecting the train!
The clamp-like device clamps the huge cannonball and slowly moves it on the guide rail and loads it into the barrel. Then the fired ammunition package is also loaded into it according to the calculated weight!
"Get ready..." All the officers and soldiers plugged their ears and opened their mouths!
The artillery launcher was holding the fuse rope in his hand and had already put earplugs in his ears. He was looking at the flag in the signalman!
"Fire..." The triangular red flag waved down. The shooter immediately opened his mouth and pulled the rope without hearing the sound!
Boom... there was a loud noise, smoke rushed out from the muzzle, and the entire train gun shook violently.
At that moment, the powerful recoil caused the entire railway track to sink instantly. Thanks to the long railway track sharing the impact, the thick gravel roadbed suddenly sank, and the dust in the gaps between the gravel was shaken out!
artillery! God of War, what are the constraints on his caliber and power? It’s not the technology of the barrel or the shell. In fact, what limits the power of the artillery is the launch base!
Field artillery can never compete with train guns in power, train guns can never match the caliber and power of battleship main guns, and battleship main guns can never be a match for fortress guns!
What's the reason? The reason lies in the launch base conditions!
Field artillery strives for mobility and flexibility. It has to move and attack together with the infantry, so it cannot make a caliber that is too large, otherwise it will not be able to move!
Train guns run on rails. The long rails form a whole that can buffer the recoil of large-caliber artillery launches, and the mechanical structure of the train is far stronger than that of field gun mounts!
Not to mention battleships, which have a displacement of thousands or even tens of thousands of tons, a solid keel structure, and a body of water to buffer the recoil of the main gun!
The huge power transmitted through the hull is actually dissolved by the sea and rivers!
The most powerful one is of course the fortress cannon. The whole thing is based on the mountain and the continent as the buffer layer. So the caliber and power of this artillery can be built at will. As long as your technology can reach it, you can build it at will!
With this attack, the roadbed of the Beijing-Hankow Railway was almost destroyed. In the ancient feudal dynasty, the state used punishments such as beheading to force workers not to cut corners.
Therefore, the railway roadbed was laid very solidly, otherwise the rails and roadbed would have been scrapped and rebuilt after these two shots!
The rumble of the artillery shells across the sky was like a train reaching the sky. This time the artillery shells exploded directly into the military formation more than 900 meters in front of Prince Gong Yixin!
The power of destroying the world swept everything on the battlefield. Yixin watched helplessly as the soldiers flew out like rag dolls and disintegrated instantly in the air!
Smoke and dust rose into the sky, and shock waves swept across everything. The two shots were only three minutes apart!
No one knows how many people died. After the war, statistics show that 1,200 rebels were killed by these two guns, and four battalions were reduced to ashes!
In three minutes, the rebels, from high-ranking officials to small soldiers, all lost the ability to think. Their brains seemed to have shut down. They didn't know what to think. They were completely blank!
It’s not that the people of the Qing Dynasty had never seen cannons, but their impression of cannons was not like this. The cannons in their minds were red cannons, which fired iron pellets, killed a few people with a rumble, and frightened a group of people!
Scenes like the 88 Field Artillery, where a dozen soldiers were killed by one shell, took a long time to get used to!
In the eyes of the people deep in these continents, the Eight-Eight Cannon is already a weapon used by the gods, a magic weapon that is so powerful that it cannot be defeated!
But today, the 210-caliber taught them to be a new person. If the truth is within the range of the artillery, then the opposing parties who also have the truth will compete for the truth in the truth, and that is the caliber!
Caliber is king!
What we are fighting for today is thick and big!
Ah... Howlings that were not like human voices were heard on the battlefield, and the sounds coming from the throats of tens of thousands of terrified people were all animal sounds.
"Ah... run... it's Xiao Letian's cannon... Xiao Letian is here in person... run..."
It can only be explained this way. Gods have their own weapons. If you can't explain the power of a 210-caliber cannon, then you will automatically attribute it to Xiao Letian!
The great rout occurred, and all the rebels within shooting range along the railway line retreated like a tide. At this time, I deeply regretted that my parents had lost two legs!
At this time, it doesn’t matter who Cheng Beile or the eldest prince Zai Tu, Ronglu or Yi Siha... Even Emperor Guangxu Yixin doesn’t know how to deal with such a war situation!
No one has any idea about this kind of weapon! This is the scariest thing. What’s worse than not being familiar with it is that you don’t have any idea. You don’t even know what this weapon is!
Yixin had heard that there were very powerful artillery on the sea, but he had never seen it before. What was written in black and white on paper, and the pictures in the photos could not form a concept!
He suffered a big loss today! Seeing the army retreating like an ebbing tide, they were only one step away from capturing Fu Qing alive!
"Let's go, Your Majesty... You have to get out of the artillery range... It's too dangerous here..."
The guards held the reins of the war horses and fled back. Yi Xin's eyes were empty and she kept muttering, "What kind of cannon is this? A cannon on the sea?"
"How did you get it on land? How did you get it up? How did you get it up..."
At this moment Yixin has become half crazy!
Luo Huo's armored train fired its main gun only twice. The 200,000 rebels of Guizi Liu collapsed and fled like crazy to the safe zone outside the range!
Jiang Lie put down the telescope and said relaxedly, "Slowly move forward, the main gun is finished...the secondary gun is free to fire, let's go pick up Mr. Fu Qing!"
The first section is the locomotive, the second section is the coal car, the third section's extended armored carriage is the launch pad of the 210 main gun, and the fourth section is the artillery magazine.
The fifth carriage is the resting and living area for the main gun and power crew soldiers!
The sixth, seventh, and eighth carriages are the secondary artillery area. There are two 88 field guns in the front and rear of each carriage. A total of six guns is exactly the configuration of a strengthened artillery battery!
The ninth car is still the ammunition depot, and the last one is the tenth coal car, and the eleventh car is still a steam locomotive!
The armored train is too heavy. A steam locomotive alone cannot run fast. There are two locomotives at the front and rear, one pulling in front and one pushing behind. The forward and backward movement is very fast and convenient!
The two locomotives pushed hard, and the train began to move forward slowly. The six secondary guns fired freely, and the railway track became lively.
Boom boom boom...
The artillery shells were fired at the fleeing rebels, and the explosion of fire tore the retreating crowd into pieces!
