With the success of the airborne landing of the special detachment, the Allies then began a large-scale phase of troop preparation. The makeshift airfield is filled with airships of all kinds. Large civilian airships will airlift four companies of parachutes to the landing site, while bomber airships will be loaded with twenty one-stone aerial bombs at a time, which they will drop on the rear of the Western Coalition forces.

The artillery unit was rapidly adding new types of artillery, and they would use new sighting equipment such as goniometers and fixed-sight scopes to fire shells in preparation for fire before the war began.

Infantry units began to enter the trenches, and they were given the order to start charging after the fire was ready. The sapper units were nervously clearing some barbed wire and mines, all of which were preparing for a counteroffensive, but just when everything was ready. The accident happened again.

The Western Regions Coalition launched a fierce onslaught. The campaign began with a sneak attack on April 10.

On the 10th, a small force had passed through the barbed wire fence of the Allied forward positions and had managed to avoid the minefield, which had been dismantled by the sappers the night before. This allowed the small force to pass through, and since it was on the eve of a counteroffensive, the trenches were covered with soldiers waiting to attack. And these unlucky soldiers of the Western Regions Alliance unexpectedly entered these trenches.

They jumped into the trench without even knowing what was happening, and when they fell into the trench, they found that the trench was full of Allied soldiers. The soldiers on both sides were surprised.

The Western Regions Coalition Army had no idea that there would be so many people standing in this trench. They then shouted loudly. I don't know what to say in my mouth. Immediately, the Allied soldiers also reacted, and picked up the rifle with the butt of a rifle, and the other party was obviously still in fear. With this butt, the trenches were immediately in chaos. Bayonets, spears from the Western Regions, crescent knives, soldiers on both sides were in a mess. There are also those who use firearms to shoot without knowing the severity of the matter. In short, this trench was crowded with people.

As the gunshots rang out, before the Allied soldiers could react, the Western Regions Coalition Army was the first to react, and the Western Regions Coalition Army, which was grumbling and shouting, launched a large-scale attack.

They attacked from the point of the breakthrough beforehand. Because it was dark night, various flares were urgently fired on the various positions of the Allied forces, and under the illumination of the flares, groups of Western Regions Coalition troops were crossing the area of barbed wire and mines that had been cleared in advance, which was originally intended for the Allied forces to launch an attack, and now became the offensive channel of the Western Regions Coalition forces.

"Shoot. Fast, shoot. "The field commander immediately ordered the soldiers to shoot. Sporadic gunfire began to ring, and the machine gun squads quickly lifted the machine guns out of their bunkers, and they had to assemble them as quickly as possible, which usually takes forty-five seconds. Then install the elastic chain.

"A hundred paces on the ruler, shoot." The squad leader ordered. There was almost no need for a ruler at this distance, and the enemy usually attacked in groups, so that the cold weapons in their hands could be used to the maximum effect, while the guns in the hands of the Allies basically did not do this, they usually spread out around the machine guns, although a company only had three machine guns. But it was enough to deal with the attack of five thousand men on the other side.

"Aim at both sides of the barbed wire, and we're going to focus our fire on sweeping them down." The commander ordered.

"Bang bang." A Zhao machine gunner pulled the bolt and began firing. The machine gun began to fire rapidly, and it was estimated that it could kill and injure many people even with the eyes closed. The water-cooled Lilin machine gun was used to its maximum effectiveness. The rate of fire suddenly reached a high rate of five hundred rounds a minute, and this kind of fire would not normally allow such a mess, but now, under the light of flares, there are enemies everywhere. They were babbling and shouting and attacking this way. As long as you kill them, everything will not be taken care of.

"Damn, what a trap rifle, it's a death rifle." An infantry soldier of the Zhao Army took out a bayonet and picked out the bullet casing, which was stuck in the magazine because of the expansion of the bullet.

"Shut up and say more. I'll kill you. Officer Zhao Jun scolded loudly. He wanted to stop this grumbling. In this tense atmosphere, it is easy to interfere with other soldiers fighting.

The noise of gunfire coupled with the bloody environment makes people's emotions difficult to control. There are often two extremes of differentiation. This is the morale that Zhao Jun understands. In order to control this differentiation. It is necessary to monotonously control the other side. Encourage the other side.

"Hurry up and inform the artillerymen. Let them hurry up and fire. Otherwise, we won't be able to kill those damn Western Regions" front-line defense regimental headquarters.

"Hey, hey. This is the Red Armor Zone. Artillery support is required. A staff officer loudly contacted the artilleryman by phone. There is a telephone line between the telephone line and the forward position. This allows the coordination of artillery and infantry to be maintained directly. As the range of the gun increases. Especially with the advent of the era of fixed charges. At the same time, it was replaced with a new propellant and warhead. Artillery power increased. The firing range reached as much as ten miles. The range of the curved shot reached fourteen miles. This distance is already basically beyond the line of sight.

The artillery was rear-fired. The communication between the infantry and the artillery required a quick telephone connection. Artillery observers were specially set up at the front. A goniometer was used to calculate the firing distance of the artillery. ballistics, etc.

"What? Can't fire without an order. Go to hell. You roll over to Lao Tzu and take a good look. What happened at the front. Everywhere...... Hey, hey. The staff officer shouted.

"I'm an artillery observer. I'll make the call. Said an officer with a badge with two crossed guns.

"Okay." As he spoke, he handed it to the artillery observer.

But the telephone operator informed the artillery observers. The phone line is very busy. It can't be reached right now.

Helpless. It was only possible to send the communications corps to the artillery to see what was really going on.

And on the artillery side. The phone kept ringing. The artillery staff officer could only patiently explain the orders from above. At the same time, the artillery commander should communicate with the highest commander by telephone. After all, he didn't know the specific situation here. He knew that everywhere on the front line was asking for artillery fire.

"Sir. All the front-line commanders demanded that we shoot immediately. The artillery commander said.

"I know. Ordered experimental infantry guns to fire from the front. Do not shoot curved artillery. Specific shooting orders await my orders. Wang Ben said on the phone. And Li Xin and his staff officers marked the situation of the battlefield reaction one by one.

"How? Is the situation clear? Wang Ben put down the phone and asked.

"There's fighting everywhere. The whole front line is everywhere. Lee's red pencil marked all the places where the fighting was reported.

"It seems that there are still a lot of places to attack." Wang Ben looked very relaxed.

"I just can't figure it out. That's what these people from the Western Regions think. Why launch such an offensive that has no value. If it's me. I'll retreat on my own initiative. Retreat to the original defensive area. Wang Ben said what he thought.

"You mean their attack is for retreat?" Li Xin asked.

"This possibility cannot be ruled out. And it's so perverse. Attacked for so long. There is no step forward. Now suddenly attack. It's so perverse. Wang Ben continued.

"Yes, indeed. The more so. The more likely this is. Li Xin said.

"Whatever the possibility. We have to react. I don't think we can counterattack directly this time. Wang Ben proposed.

"What about heaven? Those are the Airborne Forces. Li Xin started from the perspective of the Heavenly Army.

"It's one o'clock in the morning. We might as well fight in the sky. Give the artillery half an hour to prepare. Launch an artillery strike. Then the Celestial Bombardment Squadron bombed the opposing marching brigade. And then. The Airborne Forces are airborne at noon or 10 p.m. You have to know that you are going a hundred miles. We need about three days. Start preparing now! Wang Ben looked at his pocket watch and said.

"You are more daring than your father. I'll have to tell your father about this. Li Xin said. He admired this guy from the bottom of his heart. This guy is a natural mobile war-maker. The plan was not for him at all. Too much randomness.

"Whatever." Wang Ben doesn't care. And then let the chief of staff give the damn order to fight.

The fight ahead was extremely intense. The water tank of the machine gun was steaming hot. The rest of the machine gun crew kept carrying water. The co-shooter nervously changed the chain. The ammunition man, on the other hand, runs back and forth with ammunition boxes in both hands.

"Odd, aim. Put. An Allied officer stood in a trench and calmly gave the order to shoot.

"Even, aim, put." Across one of the soldiers stood up to shoot. Then quickly enter the trenches. Then the soldiers on the other side heard the command and quickly got up and shot. This platoon firing tactic was very effective against the Western Regions coalition forces that were attacking in turn. You know, at this time, there were no automatic weapons. The slowness in the rate of fire needs to be compensated for tactically.

Gunshots rang out incessantly. And the feet of these soldiers are littered with discarded bullet casings. Especially the machine gun side. Bullet casings have piled up into a hill.

And at a distance of a hundred paces. The corpses of the Western Regions coalition are also mountains. They are mountains of corpses. A frenzied rain of bullets smashed the flesh to the ground. Many people were shot and fell. Especially when facing machine gun fire. Those soldiers of the Western Regions were like cutting wheat. Falling one by one. Fingers blown away by bullets, half-pulled bloodshot arms. The bones had all been broken by a bullet. This bullet is as ferocious as a point 50-inch bullet. In fact, this caliber bullet is more powerful than that.

The bones were broken though. But blood vessels and muscle tissue are also connected to the arm. It makes people look very scary. But that's just a flash. Soon his body was shattered by the rain of bullets.

The bullet directly knocked the head of the Western Regions wearing a leather helmet into the air. The Celestial Spirit Cover and the helmet flew away directly. Splash of brains splashed all over the ground. Then a body fell mixed with blood all over the ground.

And more soldiers from the Western Regions were killed and wounded by bullets. Dead in obscurity. The living wait for the dead. The wound becomes numb. The pain is disappearing. The painful ** becomes weak and weak. The falling flares gradually went out. And new flares were lifted into the sky. Illuminate the battlefield of slaughter like daylight. The Western Regions Coalition knew to be afraid. But fear is their driving force. If you retreat, you will be executed by capital punishment. It's better to die like that.

The outcome of the battlefield was almost one-sided. The Western Regions Coalition forces with cold weapons were powerless. It was as if they were standing in line and being slaughtered. And the Allies killed blood. They knew they couldn't get within a hundred paces of each other. This is the security line of the Allied defenses.

"Artillery. Artillery is coming. Officer Zhao Jun shouted. Their machine guns boiled the pot. The boy who took the water didn't know where he died. The officer has been greeting the eighteenth generation of the women of his family. Still hasn't come. This is when firepower is most needed.

"Aim. Put. "The three-inch direct-fire small cannon is an infantry gun specially developed for infantry. However, this is an experimental product. Even experimental products have to be used.

"Whew." Cannonballs whizzed out. The sound of the shells shook his ears.

"Bang." Shells exploded in the crowd. The first person to catch the shell was blown to pieces. Meat splattered everywhere. And the people on the side followed with bad luck. Shrapnel knocked them to the ground.

There is no point in such an offensive. Only to get more people to die. Life becomes worthless here.

"Yes, understood." Immediately after the artillery commander ended the call, he gave a new order.

"Order all artillery to single aim at the predetermined unit. The 3rd Artillery Group concentrated fire on forward position targets. Then the fire extended. The third artillery group is the reserve artillery group. Generally not much to use, once enabled means that special circumstances arrive.

"Time" the chief of staff asked.

"Two and fifteen sharp." The artillery commander gave the order to.

The Chief of Staff then called to inform. The individual artillery units were quickly conveyed full orders. They would carry out the heaviest artillery attack in the history of the Qin State to date. About 200 new guns will be aimed at all intended targets, and the forward positions will be heavily shelled.

Box after box of shells were opened. The fuse was removed and mounted on the warhead of the shell. Steering machine adjustment. Transverse machine adjustment. Shooting Elemental Adjustments. Artillery nervously debugged the artillery. Three artillery units in a row are spread out in a pinnacle. And the artillery of a company unfolded in a big word. All the guns are aimed in the direction of the Western Regions Alliance.

"Urgent gathering." "Urgent gathering." "Parachute troops assemble in Area 1." "Submarine troops assemble in Area 2." Repeat. "On an elevated shelf. The officers of the Celestial Army loudly planned the flow of troops. Many soldiers gathered with weapons. Carry-on gear needs to be prepared on an ad hoc basis. To provide lighting for the airport. In particular, a set of generator equipment was provided in the rear. Nearly a hundred boxes of light bulbs.

"Are we going to be airborne?" A Zhao army paratrooper asked nervously.

"Yes. I think so. Sergeant Zhao replied.

"But we're not ready." The soldier said.

"Shut up. If you're ready, it's not called war. The sergeant said impatiently. At the beginning of the war, there was always some tension and unpleasantness.

"A company. Assemble to pick up equipment. One of the officers in charge of parachuting shouted.

The equipped wagons arrived on time. They spoke of special orders. They were led by the gendarmes to the designated area.

The soldiers received their equipment in a nervous and orderly manner. They will use a portable rucksack. There was what they wanted in it. Emergency dry food. Convenience food for the day. Personal household items. Toothbrush, tooth powder, soap. Candles, lighters, blankets, portable pouches. Spare clothing. First aid kit.

In terms of weapons and equipment. Each of them brought one hundred and fifty rounds of ammunition. All the bullet belts were full. For the convenience of movement. Some people took the bullets out of the cartridge belt and loaded them into their backpacks.

"Everyone checks the individual marching knapsacks. See what's missing? The officer spoke loudly.

"Oh! I'm missing a can opener. A soldier said, looking at the can.

"Shut up. You can use a dagger bayonet instead. The platoon commander came over and reprimanded.

"Don't mess with me." The second lieutenant platoon commander said.

"Questions? Lieutenant. Officer S asked.

"Nope. Nothing. The lieutenant replied.

"Good." The officer nodded.

"Everyone come to the front and get their parachutes. You're going to be parachuting in the air at 200 paces. The officer said.

Then all the paratroopers began to collect their main parachutes. Prepare an umbrella. As a team, the two began to put on parachute equipment for each other. Those who have finished wearing them will be uniformly inspected by the paratrooper officer. When everything is ready, go to the rest area to rest. Breakfast will be served at six o'clock.

Breakfast was plentiful. Milk, ham sausage. Bread. Instant noodles. And sodas. However, the officer did not let him drink more. Because equipped with a parachute, it is very inconvenient to go to the toilet.

In the descent area, it is much easier. All they need to do is prepare their carry-on backpacks. Fang Zheng was after the airship landed, and as soon as they opened the warehouse door, they rushed out.

The soldiers played cards. Specially sent from the rear. Either that's chatting. Soft drinks, tea and beverages are available openly. Drinks are strictly controlled. The officers will check back and forth.

And at several other temporary airfields. The ground staff is quite busy. The first is that they have to inspect airships, airplanes. This is followed by the installation of various ammunition weapons.

"One aerial bomb after another was installed in the pod. The machine gun is equipped with a chain of 100 rounds. All kinds of machinery are being inspected.

All pilots wore leather jackets. Wear a fur hat. Goggles are placed on the head. Eat breakfast immediately after dressing. They could take off for combat at any moment. The ground crew was busy sweating profusely.

Just when everything is tense and ready. There was the rumbling of artillery ahead. The offensive has finally begun.

"Put." The artillery commander shouted loudly.

Gun rope pulling. The artillery fired at once. Whistle out the cannonballs that whizz. The artillery pulled the latch. Smoking shells were thrown. Then reload the second round. The artillery continued to fire.

The whistling shells suppressed the fierce gunfire of the forward positions.

"Whew. Thundered. "In a short split second. The cannonballs smashed down. The explosion brought everything to a halt. Allied soldiers stopped pulling the trigger. The overly nervous soldier fell to the ground relaxed at this moment.

It's finally over. And many more soldiers at once did not know what was happening. I only know that the explosions behind the people of the Western Regions are continuous. The Western Regions Alliance's offensive collapsed. They began to flee in all directions.

"Bang bang" at this time the machine gun is still firing inertia.

"Stop shooting. Stop shooting. "The officer ordered.

"Enough. Stop shooting. At this time, the shooter looked at the officer. Then he fell to the ground like a force. Shooting with a machine gun is too exciting. The irritating machine-gun shooter was somewhat numb.
