The people of Guang'an moved, and launched an attack like a tide early in the morning!

Its scale and momentum are so great that people are terrified to see it.

The heavy artillery units drawn from other artillery units entered the heavy artillery position again through the trench, loaded and fired, and launched a fierce artillery bombardment on the No. 1 battery of the Nanguang defensive line.

The 6th Heavy Artillery Regiment also gave them more intense artillery bombardment in color!

When the heavy artillery units of the two sides shelled each other, the huge field artillery unit of the Guang'an people also began to move rapidly.

They didn't care about the physical fitness of the horses, they urged the horses to gallop, even the people were pulling forward and pushing back, and the terrain outside the city was flat, so that the speed of these artillery was very fast.

It was so fast that Lin Ziran frowned!

These Guang'an people are going to work hard!

He immediately said to the adjutant beside him: "Order the whole army to prepare to meet the enemy!" ”

Lin Ziran did not give too detailed combat instructions, because this was not needed, and at the same time, Lin Ziran also wanted to avoid his own interference from causing chaos in the operation of the troops.

How to meet the enemy, Wu Guanlin and others in the staff office have already formulated a complete set of plans in advance, and this set of plans has many response plans, and these plans are formulated according to their own artillery and troop deployment, taking into account the defensive line and the movement of the enemy.

If Lin Ziran blindly changes the plan, then there will be a loophole in the entire set of defensive combat plans.

Therefore, Lin Ziran only gave an order for the whole army to prepare for battle for the time being, but did not give any specific instructions.

On the other hand, Wu Guanlin, the chief of staff, had a serious expression at this time, Xu Zhongshu and several other professional officers were constantly discussing in a low voice beside him, and many were constantly writing and drawing on the drawings.

Wu Guanlin whispered in Lin Ziran's ear from time to time!

Lin Ziran lowered his head from time to time, asked from time to time, and personally walked to their battlefield map.

At the same time, a number of bannermen are constantly issuing various flags to command the defenders along the entire defense line.

On the No. 1 battery, the flag soldier walked up to Kong Deyi: "Your Excellency has an order, the cannon unit continues to suppress the enemy's heavy artillery units in the area of No. 47 and No. 48!" ”

"Your Excellency has an order, the mortar is ready to cover and shoot at No. 36!"

As soon as Comte listened to the order, he kept instructing his subordinates to wait for the artillery officer to follow the order.

Because the distance was too far and the terrain was slightly undulating, Kong Deyi at this time actually couldn't see the opponent's Guang'an artillery at all, because those Guang'an artillery were all maneuvering with the help of the terrain, and they would not stupidly advance on the straight road.

At most, I vaguely saw a lot of Guang'an figures, but those Guang'an people were almost on the entire defense line, and it was impossible to judge that there was Guang'an artillery there.

At this time, the role of the command fortress comes into play, and the condescending command fortress can almost have an unobstructed view of the entire battlefield.

This is also why Luo Anjun spent so much effort to build such a command fortress back then, and it would be impossible to do so without a huge effect.

According to the order of the command of the fortress, Kong Deyi quickly adjusted the posture of the heavy artillery regiment.

The three heavy mortar guns had already been loaded, and the commanders were making final adjustments according to the firing elements, and only a few seconds later, the three heavy howitzers were firing shells one after another.

These three mortar guns, two are 200 mm caliber, one is 300 mm caliber, this kind of mortar is characterized by a large caliber, short barrel, but the barrel is very thick, enough to charge a large amount of propellant to shoot the shell far away, well, accuracy or something is naturally not expected, can only be used for covering shooting.

After the three mortars were fired one after another, the huge shells first flew towards the sky, flew out more than 1,000 meters and then reached the highest point, and then fell, forming a curve with a large angle.

When the shells landed in the area of No. 36, there happened to be an artillery battery of the Guang'an Army passing by, and although the huge shells did not have any accuracy to speak of, two of them were far away and were blocked by undulating terrain.

However, one of the grenades happened to land more than 20 meters away from the left side of the artillery company's mobile queue and exploded, and the most important thing was that there was no undulating terrain on the left side to prevent the impact of the shells from exploding and the splashing of shrapnel.

The result was no surprise, just a grenade, that is, the majority of the artillery company that was maneuvering was reimbursed, and to put it mildly, this artillery company was already disabled.

Although Kong Deyi himself could not see this scene, he quickly received a notification from the command fortress.

Hit!

Good!

This is a good start, and it is also a huge result achieved by our own mortar artillery in the past few days.

His three mortars had shelled the opponent's heavy artillery positions many times before.

However, because of the poor accuracy, it is difficult to directly hit the opponent's artillery position, so more often than not, although it can also rely on shrapnel or impact to kill and injure the opponent, but the results have not been great.

It was the heavy cannons that killed hundreds of artillery on the other side.

The accuracy of the heavy cannon was very high, and the shells were able to directly hit the opposing artillery positions.

"Keep refueling, reloading, quick, give them another shot!"

At the same time, on the No. 2 battery, HD Cai also kept an eye on the flag news of the command fortress.

When he saw the news of the flag that the enemy had arrived in the predetermined area, he hurriedly used his binoculars to see it.

Sure enough, about 1,600 meters away, there was a faint figure of a horse behind the low hillside.

Gao Gao immediately said: "Attention to the First Artillery Company and the Third Artillery Company, Area A 73, solid bullets!" ”

The First Artillery Company and the Fourth Artillery Company are also artillery companies equipped with new-type nine-pound field guns, and this First Artillery Company was still equipped with old five-pound field guns a few days ago, but in order to make the four newly-arrived nine-pound field guns form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, Lin Ziran did not choose to set up a new artillery company, but directly added four new-type nine-pound field guns to the First Artillery Company.

The First Artillery Company was previously transferred two five-pound field guns into a supplementary battalion to garrison the mountainous area north of Qingshan Town, and later another artillery piece was transferred to temporarily strengthen the second-hand garrison company stationed in Sanyang Town.

Therefore, it is better to directly replenish four nine-pound field guns now, and the missing artillery groups are drawn from the second and third artillery companies.

At this time, Lin Ziran's second artillery group system also played a major role, each artillery piece has two artillery groups, although the strength of the second artillery group is much worse, but it can also be on top at critical moments.

After receiving the order, the 1st Artillery Company and the 3rd Artillery Company, which belonged to 10 new-type field guns of 9 catties, soon opened fire one after another after rapid adjustments.

The shells flew at a small angle to the enemy troops at a distance of 1,600 meters.
