Chapter 627: Wear and tear of ordnance

The flag language is not too important in the combat system of the Huaxia Army, and Chen Xin only knows a little about the flag language, so he has to read it again when he knows the content.

From the fact that Chen Xin knew the content of the military situation and had to read the flag, we can imagine how boring Chen Xin is now, and it can also be seen that Chen Xin has sufficient confidence in this battle.

Chen Xin checked the content of the flag while looking for the area he had just reported on the defensive line.

On the defense line of the Huaxia Army, all frontal defense areas have a fixed number, and the non-commissioned officers on the watchtower have to train every day with a newly marked map.

They had to accurately determine the enemy's position without any markers; The personnel of each artillery position also have a clear list of shelling in different areas, which has been calibrated for many test firings.

In fact, the preparations made by the Huaxia Army on the Lushun defense line were definitely far more complete than imagined by the high-level leaders of the Later Jin led by Dolgon, and this kind of defense system was no longer something they could easily understand, and it was completely outside the cognition of the Later Jin Tartars.

Now, the gunners at each gun emplacement are adjusting the charge, angle, and shell type of their guns according to the orders they have received.

After a brief silence on the front, the situation quietly changed just when the soldiers of the Houjin Army naively thought that with the cover of the rammed earth wall, they no longer needed to be afraid of the Huaxia Army's artillery strikes.

The small red flags of the artillery triangle at each artillery position were held high, and an artillery command flag beside Chen Xin on the head of Lushun City turned around in the air, and then waved it left and right a few times.

Suddenly, the front of the Huaxia Army, which had just been a silent scene, broke out into a violent movement, and all the artillery that could reach the enemy position on the opposite side launched a bombardment together.

The gunners fired shells as fast as they could, almost every gun reached a rate of fire of about three rounds per minute, and hundreds of shells swept across the two outer lines of the Jin army formation on the opposite side.

Under the cover of the fierce smoke from the eruption of field guns on the city walls, several 155mm rifled heavy guns, which had not spoken for a long time, also inflicted a slow blow on that position.

On the one hand, this is to destroy as much as possible the enemy's rising cavalry units, and on the other hand, it is also to correct the accuracy of these artillery test firings, so as to prepare for the large-scale artillery bombardment that may come in the future.

The mobile force sent by the Jin army on the opposite side, under the blow of hundreds of artillery, was in a big chaos, and at this point, whether it was a vest, a foot armor, or Yu Ding, or a coat, all of them had no respect and humility, and they all took refuge next to the rammed earth wall.

Chief of Staff Liu ordered to the bannermen beside him: "Give the cavalry battalion an order to attack quickly and decisively and go straight to the right flank defense line of the Tartars." ”

In just a moment, more than 600 cavalrymen, lined up in an extremely tight column formation, set off from the left flank of the Huaxia Army. They quickly entered the battlefield and charged towards the unprepared enemy cavalry troops.

The cavalry warriors controlled their horses with their legs, and after firing their rifles from a long distance, they immediately put the long cavalry rifles behind them, and then drew their sabers and headed straight for the enemy array

······

Night finally fell, and the shouting and killing on the battlefield gradually stopped, and the Huaxia army attacked the flank position of the Houjin army twice in a row, so that the rammed earth walls on the two wings defended by the soldiers of the Houjin army were lost for a while.

The two yellow flags under the command of Dolgon, who were originally watching the excitement in the back, still had to send troops to help stabilize the situation, but the Huaxia army, which had been waiting for a long time, naturally would not let go of this opportunity to hit Dolgon's strength, and immediately launched a more fierce artillery bombardment.

After the soldiers of the Houjin Army paid an extremely heavy price, they could be regarded as initially stabilizing the situation on the battlefield.

The Huaxia Army also because it was an all-firearms unit, and the rifle was fired more than 30 times in a row, and the barrel was so hot that it could not be reloaded with ammunition.

The soldiers of the Houjin Army, who had finally regained their foothold, built a temporary breastwork wall in the shape of an arc behind the rammed earth wall with earthen bags to protect their own two flanks of defense.

As night approached, the back of the Houjin rammed earth wall was blazing, and thousands of clothed figures were still busy behind the wall composed of shield carts, digging trenches to attack the Huaxia army, and further raising the rammed earth wall.

The post-Jin Yuding who oversaw the work were also frightened and panicked because of the tragic battle for a period of time, and when they treated the Baoyi minions, they couldn't help but be very spicy by 7 points, and they were about to kill Baoyi on the spot at every turn.

On the Houjin defense line, there are constantly exhausted coats who fall to the ground, and then they are beheaded by the rest of the people on the grounds of laziness, and then, the heads of these coats will be picked up on high wooden poles to show the public.

In fact, they hope to use this bloody and cruel means to force these tired coats to work non-stop, so as to end this tragic and unprofitable war as soon as possible.

The Huaxia Army was on the front line of the platform, condescendingly facing the Houjin Army on the opposite side, and from time to time there were high-class shooters and special marksmen, shooting at the enemy with small-caliber smoothbore guns and rifles.

These archers are not willing to embarrass those involuntary coats, and to deal with them, ordinary infantry is enough, and their main attack is those Houjin soldiers who accidentally expose their figures.

Only by further consuming the basic plate personnel of this kind of Houjin can we consume the national strength of Houjin to the greatest extent.

And this kind of cold gun and cold cannon style of fighting is no less than a large-scale artillery bombardment on the morale of the Houjin army. It is a cost-effective tactic.

The mountain howitzers on Cockscomb Mountain, at this point, are still firing shells intermittently, and their range basically covers the entire range between Cockscomb Mountain and Lushun South City.

Since the start of the war, these mountain grenades have fired at least 400 shells each, which is more than half of their useful life. This is also because these mountain grenades are bronze cannons, and if they are replaced with iron cannons, the service life may have exceeded 4 percent.

This is only the wear and tear of smoothbore weapons, Chen Xin does not fully replace rifled rifles and artillery,
