Chapter 996: Machine Gun Company
"It seems that the Great Chongqing Kingdom has a different kind of artillery."
Through the telescope, Pang Duo saw artillery that was different from that of the Jinzhou period, and he still remembers the artillery of the Great Chongqing Kingdom in that battle vividly.
Hearing this, both Bach and Wotai looked in the direction that Pontor was pointing, and their faces became more and more solemn.
But now, no matter what kind of weapons the Great Yu Kingdom puts out, they can't retreat, because behind them is the pasture of their own tribe.
"Heaven will bless us." Bach patted Pondo's shoulder.
Pang Duo nodded, his eyes becoming more and more resolute, as long as he lived, he would no longer allow the Great Yu Kingdom to cross their grassland.
While Pang Duo and the three were observing, Niu Ben and Luo Quan also figured out the current situation on the battlefield.
Looking at the trenches around the barbarian camp, Niu Ben and Luo Quan frowned slightly.
"Now the barbarians are really smarter, and the trenches are getting more and more standard."
Niu Ben stroked his beard lightly, after the Battle of Kwantung, the trench tactics seemed to grow wings overnight, and now almost every faction knows how to use trenches to counteract their weapon superiority.
"So what? It's just to delay the process of their death, and dying early and late is a death. Luo Quan was unimpressed, the grenades were enough to give them an advantage in trench warfare.
Niu Ben nodded, the huge camp in front of him was not a strong fortress for him, but a meat grinder composed of flesh and blood, perhaps the barbarians were confident that such a camp could block the army of the Great Yu Kingdom.
But he was well aware that the gap between the two armies was now irreparable.
The two were talking, when a chaser suddenly hurried in front of them, dismounted and said urgently: "Two generals, the emperor has ordered to focus on defense for the time being, and wait for the arrival of the Changping machine gun team to fight a decisive battle!" ”
"Changping machine gun team! Song Changping, this kid turned the machine gun upside down? Luo Quan was overjoyed.
"Great, according to the emperor, this machine gun is a sharp weapon for dealing with dense charges, and it is too suitable for dealing with barbarians." Niu Ben's eyes were full of excitement.
The chaser continued: "The emperor also said that the machine guns are currently being produced, and the first batch of machine guns will arrive at the end of the month, so let the two generals wait patiently. “
"Okay, you go back and tell the emperor, we are waiting for the arrival of the machine gun team." Niu Ben said loudly.
In response, the chassars rode away, and when he returned to Raozhou, he would return to Qingzhou by steam locomotive.
When the figure of the chassars disappeared, Luo Quan said: "I hope this machine gun team can allow us to lose some soldiers less, this time the barbarians put up such a position, this is clearly to fight with us here, and the loss between winning and losing is the fortune of the country." ”
Niu Ben sneered, "Dolgo is clever to himself, he is killing himself." “
With that, he and Luo Quan turned around and returned to the army, ordering the soldiers to immediately dig a trench to confront the barbarians, and since the barbarians were waiting for the remaining cavalry, then give them time.
The next day, Pang Duo, Bach and other barbarian generals woke up early to prepare for battle, and according to the usual practice, the army of the Great Chongqing State would generally choose to rest for the night and launch an attack the next day.
But what surprised them was that all they saw were the soldiers of the Great Chongqing State digging trenches, and the army of the Great Chongqing Kingdom was very leisurely in the circle surrounded by the trenches, and there was no intention of fighting at all.
"What the hell is this Great Chongqing Country doing?" Wotai said strangely.
Bach shook his head, "It's so abnormal, what are they waiting for?" “
Pang Duo frowned and thought deeply, but he couldn't think of a clue, hesitated for a moment, and said: "It just so happens that the cavalry supporting us in the Golden Horde has not yet arrived, and we need time to wait for them to come." “
Zack and Tamu had already arrived at the camp, and seeing this, Zack said: "They may be waiting for the cavalry led by Qi Guangyi to disturb the rear, and now I am worried that they will continue to go deep into the grassland." “
He was a little upset when Zack arrived with the remnants of the 5,000 men, because he thought it would be wise to avoid fighting the Great Yu before the decisive battle.
But Zach clearly didn't follow his ideas.
"Now we can't control so much, if we fail here, we will be crushed, and no tribe will be able to resist the occupation of the grassland by the Great Yu Kingdom, understand?" Pontor said angrily.
Zack was a little angry, but the banner leader of the tribe was reprimanded by Poondo, and his face was gloomy, but Dorgo's order was to make them obey Poondo's orders.
With a blue face, Zack and Tamu walked towards the camp, and said as they walked Zack: "None of them have seen the power of Qi Guangyi's cavalry, they will regret it." ”
Glancing at Zach, who was still complaining, Poondo didn't pay attention to him anymore, because in his opinion, the greatest danger was ahead.
In this mutual confrontation, time passed day by day, more than 20 days passed in a flash, and when the end of the month came, the first batch of machine gun teams arrived at the camp of the army of the Great Chongqing State.
"General, all thirty machine guns are in place."
On the school field in the middle of the camp, Sun Changce, the commander of the machine gun company, reported to Niu Ben and Luo Quan that they were both from the forbidden army defending Qingzhou, and arrived at the battlefield with machine guns after completing training in the military factory.
Niu Ben and Luo Quan were already happily talking together, and at this time, thirty long-flat machine guns in front of them were quietly sitting on solid ground.
Each machine gun sits on a wheeled base, which is ideal for fighting on the grassland, as the soldiers can push the machine gun like a towing gun to build a machine gun position on the flat grassland at any time.
"Quick, let's see the power of this machine gun." Hearing is better than seeing, Niu Ben and Luo Quan are already a little impatient.
Sun Changce gave a military salute, answered yes, and immediately asked the machine gunner to push a machine gun and shoot at the open area east of the camp.
Finding a suitable position, the deputy shooter immediately stuffed the cartridge belt into the machine gun, and the shooter pressed the button, and suddenly the continuous fire rang out in the "da-da-da", and the continuous fire made the generals stunned.
"Hahaha...... Niu Ben laughed, "With such a sharp weapon, why worry about not winning this decisive battle, this time let the barbarians eat enough of our bullets." “
Luo Quan said with a smile: "Exactly, this month is worth waiting, and the cavalry supporting the barbarians has also arrived at the barbarian camp, it is estimated that the battle will be inevitable in the past two days, and this time we will have a good time." ”
Witnessing the power of the machine gun, the two went to the camp with Sun Changce to arrange the location of the machine gun.
Now the 160,000 cavalry of the barbarians are gathered in one place, and according to the habits of the barbarians, slave soldiers will inevitably be used to charge the battle at the beginning of the war.
According to their observations in the past two days, there are not many descendants of the Great Yu Kingdom among these slave soldiers, and more of them are slaves looted by the barbarians from the Western Regions, because the slaves of the Great Chongqing Kingdom are mainly concentrated in the Kanto region, and most of them have been rescued.
They don't need to show mercy to such slave soldiers.
