Chapter 374: 6. Attacking tanks (12)

Major Sherman checked the table. At 11:25 am, the soldiers on the opposite wall had almost finished their final lunch, and it was time to send them off the road.
The major greeted his men into the battle. Behind the giant artillery is a large number of onlookers-I heard that the legendary "demolition house" super giant artillery is approaching the city of Asograna, and the various troops are doing everything they can to see the respect of the wonders of war. When recruiting volunteers for heavy artillery, the energetic applicants almost overwhelmed the registration table.
The officer from the staff was surprised at the giant artillery from the cooks, and then followed the gunners into the bunker. The Castilians on the wall saw the strange movements of the army outside and laughed wildly. Hearing indecent speech with a dialect accent, Major Sherman also smiled, and after plugging his ears with a wooden stopper, the roar of "Fire!" and his vigorously waving arm issued a death sentence for the Millennium Port.
The first gun "Karl" shuddered, and a loud noise burst like a thunder, and the whole ground shook with it. The muzzle flames sprayed wildly painted a strongly distorted portrait in the sun.
A 2.17-ton shell projected into the second outer wall with a frantic roar, disturbing the particles to relieve the start of the wall, and the huge penetration force caused the warhead to break through the top of the barrier and explode at the base of the thick wall.
The whirlwind of smoke and fire rose, and a large body of human body and city walls flew into the air, and was thrown far away after the flames were roasting. Seen from the cannon mirrors protruding from the trenches, the towering city wall is like a burning volcano, dying and destroying beyond the outside world.
The test shot of the super mortar was a huge disaster for Asograna. The entire wall of 7 meters in length disappeared like a weak temporary board house, and even the foundation was transformed into a terrifying. Crater. The debris and smoke disappeared so quickly and completely that people wondered whether these things existed.
The battlefield was quiet, and the cold wind blew out a terrible cry. The flames licked up the combustibles and made a cracking aftertone. Except for the heavy gunners who operated the giant guns, the warring parties could not understand their shock and fell into a strange silence.
This is just a test shot of the accurate head, but the two sides are already very clear-the city can no longer be guarded.
"Artillery company!"
Major Sherman raised his hand again. Other members of the artillery team on standby also hid in bunkers.
"Rapid shot! Let go!"
Three giant cannons, about 1.5 kilometers away from the city wall, roared together. The whole city and the city wall were suddenly shrouded in a red fantasy halo. That kind of scene used to appear only in the chapter of "Apocalypse." The residents of Sugrana were fortunate to witness the end of the world.
The 600mm shells released successively shocking energy, and the people in the city walls and arrow towers turned to ashes along with the scattered construction materials. Stay in the cellar. A person who was not affected by the fashion was also driven crazy by the muffled noise and shock of the fortifications. Their hearts almost popped out of their mouths and their internal organs were bleeding. Until a shell hit the top of the opening, liberating these pitiful bugs with a roar.
After blasting away the outer wall, the giant artillery began to extend its firepower like the inner wall. At the beginning, the landing point was too far, and 4 craters with a diameter of 15 meters and a depth of 5 meters were created. After adjustment. The second round of shells landed accurately on the heads of the inner wall guards. This final line of defense was torn apart, and the four rounds of artillery shells fell within 5 meters of each other. It happened to hit a pile of wooden barrels containing kerosene, which caused a severe chain explosion.
Only 12 meters high, built with the strongest stone, left only a section of foundation. A church close to it also disappeared in an instant, leaving no trace of what once stood. The blast wave of the explosion swept through the urban area near the city walls, a large number of buildings were destroyed or destroyed within seconds, and an entire block was almost razed to the ground. There were collapsed houses and corpses buried under the rough and wounded in need. The fire began to spread.
General Ramon, who was almost stunned, was quite calm at this time. He commanded the dizzy knights around him to take the troops to the gap to meet the enemy-the shocking attack had stopped, and the enemy commando was coming soon.
A large number of warriors in shiny armor took batons, hammers, swords, and halberds to the location of the broken wall to meet the trials of the enemy and fate. This group of brave defenders is determined to die, not only to defend the ancient city for thousands of years with the flesh and blood, but also to make this group of foreign enemies pay enough.
"It's so boring."
Major Sherman grinned and took a deep breath, the smell of gunpowder in the air, which smelled much better than the scorched flesh.
On the artillery position behind the major, the artillery group composed of various caliber artillery has been adjusted. The landing point is locked in the gap where more and more people crowd.
A trivial little trap for brave warriors.
In a typical siege battle, after a powerful attack opens a gap in the wall, the enemy infantry will immediately enter the battle. Therefore, the soldiers on the defensive side will leave their bunkers and meet the enemy commando. At the same time, the gap is closed as soon as possible.
Anyone who does reasonable moves can do this. In response to this kind of psychology, the artillery of the Defense Force often exercises a set of true and false artillery extension tactics, which are specifically used to kill enemy forces that rely on fortifications.
The number of defenders entering the gap was enough. The cannons roared together, and the sudden round of artillery fire caused more than half of the casualties of the unguarded defenders in the first round. After 5 minutes of artillery fire, the artillery began to extend into the city, and the Castilians thought that the enemy's attack was imminent and re-populated the gap in the city wall. Unexpectedly, the cannonball returned to the gap again, and people holding all kinds of building materials were faced up, and various body parts and material debris flew into the air.
Major Sherman seemed to hear the curse over the wall. He was a little surprised, but he didn't care too much. After two or three rounds of true and false artillery are extended, the defending soldiers will no longer be willing to leave the bunker because of fear, and the officers will also think that this is a trap, so they take it lightly. Next...
This was a trick used by the Soviet Red Army to deal with the German Army. Later, it was learned by rabbits, and on the Korean battlefield, they made a good deal of hawking sauce and southern sticks. Now it is the elves' turn to teach the arrogant human knights.
"Undead dancing wildly, singing."
The major looked down at the boiling battlefield, chanting words like poetry in his mouth. In the field of vision, a round thing flew out of the explosion. It bounced across the pile of debris, just like the small stones thrown out by his father at the time.
That thing stopped. The major saw it clearly. It was his head, his expression distorted by anger and panic. In a trance, that scary face became his sister again-while crying and running away ~ EbookFREE.me ~ the knight riding a horse grinning and waving his long sword, the little head flew out, his face was exhausted Desperate, unwilling, sad, talking eyes are blaming the major.
"This is war, this is hell!"
The elder cries with a Castilian accent drowned in the chorus of the cannon, and the 42-year-old elf major raised his face and laughed-laughing like a cry, and tears overflowing from his eyes were fired at the cannon The light of the fire shone like blood.

(Reminder: The emperor of the Midi Civil War, the outstanding performance was the burning of Atlanta, turning Mississippi into the poorest state of Midi for hundreds of years. During World War II, Midi had some kind of nicknames "Xie Mantou" and "Lighter" tanks. He named) Come on, everyone, act quickly!
