"Damn, it's shelling! Where did the British get a lot of artillery? "The Boers were startled by the sudden artillery bombardment when a rain of steel bullets heralded death fell from the sky, and they had always thought that they were only surrounded by a cavalry force, which was outnumbered but lacked heavy firepower. The large number of artillery and machine guns www.biquge.info the Boers were the driving force behind the support of the Boers, but now, the shelling of the British has shattered their imagination! This time the British came prepared!

"Fire suppression, our position is higher than the British, and they don't have heavy artillery!" Soon, however, under the command of an experienced German artillery commander, the Boers calmed down, for they found that this time they were not facing the 120mm heavy guns of the British Royal Navy, nor the 15-pounder army guns, but mostly small guns, estimated to be 3-pounder and 6-pounder guns of the Navy, and perhaps some old 9-pounder guns! It seems, this time the British did not carry heavy artillery ?!

These hastily battled artillery pieces have been improved very unsuccessfully, at least the elevation angle is limited, so their range is relatively short, and if you don't want to be countered by the other side, you can only hide behind honestly!

4 75mm rapid-fire guns aimed at the British artillery positions on the side, with the roar of the artillery, 4 guns fired more than 60 shells in a short period of time, through the calculation of the reference object calibrated in advance, the shelling was very successful, in less than 3 minutes, the shells fell evenly on the target area, accompanied by a column of smoke, and violent explosions, the entire British artillery company fell into a sea of fire and smoke, but just when the Boers celebrated their victory, A group of British troops were already carrying several 57mm guns, relying on the protection of smoke and terrain, quietly moving to the front line!

Several small cars towed the guns, they moved carefully, avoiding the detection and shell fragments of the opponent, and after two cars were damaged, the British used human and mechanical force to push the three 57mm rapid-fire guns to the designated position! These cannons still can't reach the Boer artillery, but they do great damage to the fortifications of the first line!

On the other side of the battlefield, the British cavalry under the command of French also transported several machine guns and small artillery pieces along the trenches to a relatively forward position. When they were ready, the first round of British attacks began, and thousands of soldiers clenched their Mosin Nagant rifles and charged, but the British, who had been baptized by many wars, also learned to pull out a line of skirmishers that were not very high.

500 meters, 400 meters, 300 meters! When the British forward approached only 300 meters from the position, the machine guns behind the bunker finally let out a roar! The ferocious fire of a dozen machine guns cut through the British attacking formation, and when the British thought they could rush through the last 300 meters with a single effort, the dense rain of bullets told the opponent what a naïve idea it was.

The flying bullets easily swept down the infantry in front, and the beating fire snake nailed the soldiers behind to the spot, and then, after restraining the British charge, the mortars also began to cross the bunker to harvest the other party's statement, those howitzers exploded in the air, and countless steel balls swept down in a fan-shape, beating the people below into dice, in front of rapid-fire guns and machine guns, the flesh and blood were so fragile and unbearable!

"Our first attack was useless, they had too many machine guns and artillery, and they locked all the offensive lanes. I don't know why, you refused to support the operation with front-mounted artillery. Nearby, Admiral French's messenger angrily questioned the colonel.

"This is the point of fire exposed by all the enemy forces of our pillars, they used 120mm heavy guns in the last battle, I don't think I need to say more about where these guns came from, right? They are in a good position and have a height advantage, and I am afraid that they still have this kind of artillery, so we need to know as much as possible about the opponent's firepower, and then focus on the firepower to break the opponent in one wave! George replied.

George's Marine Corps has the strongest capacity, but unfortunately, after a long period of fighting, Cape Town and other places have not had enough artillery, but even so, while using a large number of small-caliber guns, George still brought 3 120mm heavy guns, these guns all weigh about 4.7 tons, and have a relatively mature gun mount, which is more suitable for cars and tractors to tow.

The first wave of attack was a trial, and after this feint, the British had a rough idea of the configuration of weapons on the high ground on both flanks and a considerable part of the firepower points on the front line, and when the next wave of attacks began again, it would be the most ferocious wave!

"We have pushed machine guns and light artillery to the front, heavy artillery has also locked on the opponent's artillery positions, and we have concentrated 2,000 infantry! Under the cover of more than 20 artillery pieces and a large number of machine guns, I think that we simply did not have a large number of reasons to lose! In the combat log, George wrote.

The British readjusted their deployment, and in the face of the Boers who had become the turtle in the urn, the British did not dare to be careless, because they knew that they were only trapping a Boer army, and God knew when their main cavalry force would appear, in this case, every minute and every second was a test for both sides, so even if it was time for the second attack, the British still left a considerable part of their forces as mobile forces to defend against possible surprise attacks.

"Let's get started!" With the order to attack, this time, the British were not sparing! All the artillery is firing at the target! From the 3-pounder and 6-pounder guns on the front line, to the 15-pounder and 9-pounder guns behind the starting position, to the 3 120mm heavy guns at the rear! The British are firing on all cylinders! Barrages of artillery of various calibers rolled back and forth over the positions of the Boers!

The British Royal Navy's gunnery is still good, after a short three rounds of test firing, the fourth round of shelling, a 120mm shell successfully hit a 75mm rapid-fire gun!

More than 20 kilograms of shells fell from the sky with a roar of death, only to see a flash of fire, and a dazzling white light shrouded a radius of dozens of meters! A powerful shockwave mixed with shrapnel and artillery fragments swept towards the surroundings, easily blasting the surrounding area into white ground.

The shells of the 120mm heavy guns fell one after another on the high ground of a small area, and the British patiently ploughed every inch of land with a covering strike! Harvesting the lives of Boolean gunners with high-explosive grenades. With each shell landing, it was a catastrophe for the Boers, and even many of the people hiding behind the bunker were shattered by the shock wave from a near-miss explosion, and they struggled to cover the broken internal organs and broken ribs, and made a heaving sound at the people next to them, but it only aggravated their injuries. After some struggle, I finally stopped breathing.
