Of course Song Ziyu couldn't let Meng En lead someone to die!
The Western Expedition has just begun, taking only one or two damn steps out of a hundred. Of course, the elite under his command cannot be wasted here.
But if you want to attack the city and face the city defense fortifications, it is impossible without taking human lives to fill them.
An old saying goes that the art of using troops is to surround an enemy by ten, attack it by five, divide it when doubled, fight the enemy if it is small, escape from it if it is small, and avoid it if it is weak. Therefore, if a small enemy is strong, a big enemy can be captured... The emphasis is on attacking such a city. If you don't have ten times the enemy's strength, don't besiege them.
But this is the thinking of the cold weapon era.
Of course Song Ziyu couldn't waste time in this place.
"Pull up the Italian cannon for me!"
Song Ziyu gave an order, and a 75mm caliber grenade gun was pulled up!
This is a weapon that was magically modified by the Longshan Arsenal based on the blueprints left by the southern ordnance back then!
The seventy-five-caliber howitzer is equipped with a thirty-six-fold caliber with twenty-eight riflings. The overall gun body is 2.5 meters long and adopts an improved double-safe screw-type breech... The overall gun weighs about 1.5 tons. , using two-wheel three-point support, and is also equipped with a special pull cart for transportation, and is served by twelve professionally trained artillerymen.
This thing is one of the trump cards of Longshan Arsenal. Due to technical, process and material problems, the output is low. So far, only twelve doors have been produced in Longshan.
Song Ziyu brought eight cannons with him for the Western Expedition, and deployed a large number of people to maintain them along the way. Even though they were traveling over mountains and ridges, and even encountered horrific wildfires, Song Ziyu still did not give up these cannons.
Now, this thing finally has a use!
Five or six artillerymen who had received professional training from the arsenal were busy fixing the howitzer in the firing position, and then adjusted the firing range and elevation to aim at the city wall of the Qinghu settlement.
"I'll give you one last chance. Will you surrender?"
Song Ziyu ordered someone to shout, but the response he got was a few bullets.
"Hmph! You stubborn guy is really looking for death!"
As soon as Song Ziyu gave the order, his subordinates, who had long been impatient, immediately ran away!
The first shell is a special armor-piercing shell!
The huge cannonball hit the wall of Qinghu settlement at a flat angle with a terrifying roar!
This city wall, which took a lot of effort from the survivors of Qinghu Settlement, was directly blasted with a huge hole!
But this is just the beginning!
When the second howitzer was installed and began to carry out alternate bombardment, the walls of the settlement were blown to pieces on the spot.
horrible!
In the Qinghu settlement, regardless of whether they were captured survivors or the previous vicious slave hunters, they could only lie on the ground and tremble!
What can you do in front of this terrifying power of God? What else can you do?
This is completely a terrifying dimensionality reduction blow!
In the face of confrontation without equivalent weapons and equipment, this is unilateral intimidation and massacre.
I recall that when the British and French forces led an army to capture Dagukou, and then killed 20,000 cavalrymen under the command of the Qing war god Green Qin at Bali Bridge, their corpses were scattered all over the field. The price paid was just a few dozen casualties.
This is the terrifying suppression brought about by the difference in weapons generation.
…
With the suppression of howitzers, a large section of the city wall was quickly blown out.
With such a large gap, it would be no problem to capture this settlement.
Only then did Song Ziyu give the order, with dozens of power awakeners wearing bulletproof heavy armor leading the charge, and hundreds of soldiers entering the city in a formation to cover them up.
There is no doubt that!
These heavily armored warriors are the last barbell that breaks the camel's back!
In front of these heavily armored warriors, ordinary swords and even firearms have no effect.
Ordinary attacks are meaningless against these heavily armored warriors, and the steel shields and giant swords in the hands of these heavily armored warriors are simply a disaster for the slave hunters.
The center of the battlefield in the settlement!
A heavily armored warrior is under siege, and seven or eight slave hunters are fighting to the death with him.
But seeing a slave hunter being the first to hold on, he shot the heavily armored soldier in the chest with the modified shotgun in his hand.
】
Gunshots rang out and smoke curled up. The heavily armored soldiers were safe and sound, except for a few innocuous lead pellets embedded in the heavy armor on their chests.
Such an attack is not very harmful, but it is extremely insulting!
on the spot!
Feeling offended, the heavily armored warrior raised his hand directly, and swung out the chain saw meteor hammer in his hand, hitting the slave hunter hard.
This chain saw meteor hammer was designed by Song Ziyu after the meteor hammer in the hands of knights in the Western Middle Ages. One end of the chain saw is a long handle made of all kinds of materials. There is a breaking device hidden in the long handle, which can eject a half-meter-long metal chain in an instant!
The other end of the chain is connected to a huge alloy meteor hammer.
The watermelon-sized hammer head is swung along with the iron chain, and with the cooperation of the hair-breaking device, it can also change the length of the attack to a certain extent, causing unexpected damage.
The most important thing is that this thing is really not something that ordinary people can master!
Because the weapon itself weighs dozens of kilograms and wielding it consumes a lot of physical strength, this chain saw meteor hammer is equipped directly for physical attackers with awakened abilities.
Only their strong bodies and long stamina can control such weapons while wearing heavy armor.
This combination is definitely made for killing!
…
???????????????The meteor hammer in the hands of the heavily armored warrior fell. The slave hunter had no way to avoid it, and his head directly collided with the meteor hammer.
This is a naked butt sitting on a crystal, hitting an egg against a stone!
on the spot!
The slave hunter's head was crushed.
The heavily armored warrior who achieved a kill was not happy at all, because these slave hunters were the source of his own disaster, and all these guys should go to hell.
Without any pause, the heavily armored warrior swung the long-handled meteor hammer and directly hit the second slave hunter.
The slave hunter was still trapped in the fear of his companions being mercilessly killed. He did not expect that bad luck would befall him immediately. He could not even hide, so he was picked up by a hammer on the spot and flew out on the spot.
Then, the unfinished unilateral massacre broke out crazily!
There is no expression on the armored mask of the heavily armored warrior. He is like an emotionless killing machine.
But no one knew that the face under the mask was soaked with tears.
This freedman warrior who was born as a slave is comforting the spirits of his parents and relatives in this way.
…
The same massacre broke out crazily in the Qinghu settlement.
The heavily armored warriors are a knocking hammer, while the hundreds of fully armed elite warriors behind them are the most desperate nightmare for slave hunters.
When these elite warriors entered the settlement and occupied commanding heights and strategic positions on a small team basis, this one-sided crushing battle finally came to an end.
