The armored carriage is a specially made equipment specially designed to deal with the Ming army. The Ming army had armored carriages. As the saying goes, soldiers come to block the generals, and water comes to cover the soil. When dealing with the armored carriages of the Ming army, the Qing army also built its own super chariot, which is the armored carriage.

This is just the second line of defense to attack. The armored vehicles of the Ming army are still missing. Of course, Duoduo did not want to play the ace in his hand at this time. Duoduo's battlefield experience is extremely rich, especially after experiencing a fierce battle like the Songjin Battle, he naturally understood that there is no reason to attack with all his strength now. After hearing Tong Yangxing's words, he shook his head and said: []

"It's not the time yet. When fighting trench wars, it's better to get on the shield chariot first. However, the shield chariot's protection must be thickened. I want to see if it's the Ming army's bullets or our shield chariots are strong. Send orders to strengthen the chariots and attack again in the afternoon."

The shield chariots originally prepared by the Qing army could only be protected against 7.63 caliber bullets. After seeing the power of the Ming army's heavy machine guns, Duoduo ordered all shield chariots to be thickened to protect them. According to Takuo Nishimura, gravel and cotton and linen fibers were bulletproof materials. The Qing army made all kinds of preparations this time. The various craftsmen who accompanied the army were the best in history, and there were all kinds of materials. Hundreds of craftsmen worked together and quickly modified 100 mule-horse-style shield chariots and 100 human-power shield chariots.

The improved shield cart has a wooden board covered with iron sheets on the front of the original thick wooden board. There is a three-finger-wide mezzanine between the installed wooden boards and the previous wooden boards. The interlayer is filled with gravel, soil and rag strips. After filling and pressing, the bulletproof ability of this sandwich plate has been improved to a new level. Even a 12.7-caliber bullet cannot penetrate this sandwich plate. Of course, the weight of the shield cart has also increased accordingly, especially the mule-horse-style shield cart. The front and side panels use sandwich plate devices, and the weight has more than doubled at once. However, the horse's strength is strong enough, and it only sacrifices some impact speed. However, based on the significant improvement of the protection level, the improved mule-horse-style shield cart has a striking protection ability. The Qing army believes that with this invulnerable shield cart, it is a pity to capture the second line of defense of the Ming army.

However, Duoduo was not so optimistic. In order to ensure a smooth attack on the second line of defense, in addition to sending a shield car, Duoduo also decided to let the artillery fire cover the attack. In addition to launching thunderbolt thunder by the thunderbolt, Duoduo also planned to let the super caliber cannon test its edge.

Jillezhanga and Namu were divided into 20 mule-horse-style shield cars and 20 human-style shield cars. They immediately invested forty enhanced shield cars in this attack direction. The two of them had more than 400 people under them. After several hours of rest and food and drink, they are now full of energy. They will launch their full attack just by waiting for the offensive order.

The Ming army was paying attention to the movements of the Qing army at all times. As soon as they saw the Qing army's shields lined up in a row far in front of the formation, they knew that the Qing army's attack was about to begin. Zhou Weiming was originally from Liaodong and knew the courage of the Qing army. The Qing army was fierce and fearless in wars, and often used human lives to pave the way for the subsequent Qing army. This was one of the reasons why the Ming army was defeated by the Qing army repeatedly.

Before this Qing army attack, it was no longer a few symbolic firings, but made a lot of noise. The Ming army had seen many thunderbolts. The largest thunderbolts could not be projected at all by the Ming army's trenches. The only one who could hit the Ming army's trenches was medium-sized thunder. The explosion power of the medium-sized thunder was limited and it poses little threat to the Ming army in the tunnel. As the thunderbolts were projected one by one on the Ming army's position, it did not cause any casualties to the Ming army. However, the mines in front of the position were almost detonated by the thunderbolts. The effect seemed much better than using horses and shield chariots to detonate mines.

Suddenly, Wei Debao next to him shouted:

"What is that? Meteor Hammer?"

Explosions were heard one after another, but Zhou Weiming still heard Wei Debao's howl. When he looked at the sky again, he saw several thunderbolt bullets with tails smashing straight towards the position from far to near. The closer the distance, the clearer it was to see. The thing was like a big copper hammer. Zhou Weiming shuddered in his mind and shouted:

"Lying down, it's a shell."

Zhou Weiming pulled Wei Debao down with one hand. As soon as he fell to the ground, a super caliber shell exploded at the front of the trench with a blast. The exploded blocks buried the two of them in the mound.

This supercaliber shell can only be considered a small supercaliber shell, but it is larger than the largest thunderbolt shell. The 60-barrel fires supercaliber shells with gunpowder. The launch thrust is much greater than the launch thrust of the torsion spring of the lightning thrower. If the thunderbolt thunder of the lightning thrower is not enough to threaten the Ming army, the supercaliber shell is a real threat. A round of supercaliber shells fired, causing some casualties to the Ming army.

Sun Du, who was watching the battle in the concrete fortification, saw that when the Qing army also had super caliber shells, Sun Du was secretly shocked and immediately sent someone to Guan Zantang to ask for artillery support. The company commander and above of the Ming army knew that there were super caliber shells, but he did not expect that the Qing army now had such a big killing weapon.

At this time, taking advantage of this round of artillery fire to effectively suppress the Ming army, the Qing army seized the opportunity to launch an attack.

Forty shield cars advanced forward, followed by the Qing army's infantry. The shield cars seen in the telescope were replaced with all the iron shield cars. Sun Du frowned. The iron shield cars like the Qing army must have been protected to a higher level. The weapons in Zhou Weiming's hand were probably only the rocket launcher to deal with these iron things.

The mule-horse shield car ran faster and faster. After a while, it passed the human-powered shield car and accelerated forward. Zhou Weiming blew the whistle and Wei Debao waved the signal flag. The 12.7-caliber machine gun on the "Chang'an" light armored vehicle fired again. However, this time the strafing was disappointing. The bullet easily penetrated the first wooden board behind the iron sheet, but was blocked by the mezzanine soil and gravel, and the kinetic energy was quickly released and finally stopped on the surface of the second wooden board. The shield car was hit by the platoon of bullets, but it was slightly delayed, and then continued to rush forward tenaciously.

When Zhou Weiming saw that even the large-caliber machine gun of "Chang'an" could not penetrate the shield car, he hurriedly shouted:

"Battlehot, bazooka is ready! Load armor-breaking bombs and launch them freely."

The Ming army's bazookamen had never had the opportunity to fire before, and their credit was easily snatched away by the large-caliber machine gun of "Chang'an". They felt very aggrieved. At this moment, they finally got the opportunity to perform, and the five bazookamen and five assistants immediately began to aim.

At this time, the Qing army's thunderbolt and super-caliber shells had stopped. Whether it was thunderbolt and super-caliber shells, the hit rate was very bad. If it continued to fire, it might hurt its own people.

When the mule-horse-style shield cart advanced to about 200 steps, the Ming army's rocket launcher fired five flames one after another. Then, the front panels of the four shield carts were torn apart. After the armor-breaking bomb penetrated the front panel, it penetrated a hole in the head of the horse that was stuck on the frame, and the four shield carts were instantly beaten into waste. The fifth shield cart was lucky. The armor-breaking bomb did not hit the center of the front panel. The bullet obviously missed and hit the edge of the board. It made a big hole on it, but it did not hit it.

The horse was trapped in the middle, but the shield car hesitated for a while and continued to move forward. However, after a hole was penetrated on the front panel, the large-caliber machine gun of the "Chang'an" armored vehicle began to pick up cheap items. The bullets went in along the hole and killed the horse. The shield car was also scrapped. Wang Chengen still produced a batch of hollow-loaded armor-breaking bombs. The copper concave ring in the armor-breaking bombs adopted spinning technology. The sandwich armor of the Qing army shield car had only one ending in front of the armor-breaking bombs, which was to be ruthlessly penetrated.

However, the Qing army had a large number of shield cars and rushed very quickly. The Ming army's bazooka hands were a little busy. Although they hit four shield cars, there were still thirty-one shield cars accelerating and rushing forward. If they continued to fight like this, even if they could still kill more than a dozen, there would still be more than a dozen rushing up.

Zhou Weiming in the trench was also a little helpless. When he had no choice but to shout to Wei Debao loudly:

"Put the banner and call for artillery fire support!"

Wei Debao quickly raised the banner of calling for artillery fire support. If it were not forbidden to do so, Zhou Weiming would not have called for artillery fire support. However, Sun Du had already made arrangements first. The Ming army has trained the most frequently in infantry and artillery coordination over the period of time. The so-called artillery coordination of nature refers to the coordination of infantry and armored vehicles.

The Ming army's 75 artillery and supercaliber artillery sounded at the right time, rumbling and rumbling, and a wave of explosions started in front of the formation. Jillezhanga was still sincerely excited about the sledgehammer-type supercaliber shells. It was the wave of large copper hammer-type supercaliber shells that made the Ming army feel in a mess. Now the Ming army has also launched this thing, which makes Jillezhanga and Namu feel strange that the Ming army's sledgehammer shells are in a strange shape, and the stick on the butt is the same as the one on his side, but the sledgehammer head in front is cone-shaped, and there are three iron pieces on the butt. When flying in the air, it makes a strange whistle.

Jilezhanga's appreciation time was very limited. When the Ming army's 75 shells and sledgehammer bombs fell one after another, the charging shield cart and the infantry that followed were hit by the most tragic blow. First, the infantry following the shield cart was blown away by one after another and the flesh and blood. The shield cart was not much better. The super caliber shells weighed 10 kilograms, and some happened to fall on the roof of the mule-horse shield cart and exploded. The roof was just a single-layer wooden board, which could not withstand the powerful explosion. The shield cart was immediately disintegrated by this explosion, and the horse in the cart was also blown into a broken limb.

If the super caliber shell explodes next to the mule-horse-style shield cart, the huge explosion air wave will overturn the shield cart with a high center of gravity. Even if the horse in the cart is not shaken to death, it will be shocked. After overturning the cart, the subsequent shells that fell immediately exploded the cart and the people, cars and horses into various fragments. As for the human shield cart, there is only a sandwich armor plate in front, which has no defense power for the shells falling from the sky. It rumbling. The shield cart, which originally thought it would be able to break through the defense line soon, was blown to the point where it was blown to no avail.

What's even more tragic is that the Ming army's artillery shells not only bombarded the shield chariots, but also the part where Jilezhanga gathered cavalry to prepare for charge was bombarded by Ming army's artillery shells. Jilezhanga looked at his subordinates and his horses and were killed and overwhelmed, and his anger was no longer the same. The cruel scene in front of him finally aroused Jilezhanga's bloodiness. He pulled the reins suddenly, knocked the back of the knife to the horse's back, and shouted wildly:

"Warriors, follow me and kill! Kill all these Ming troops."

Namu and other Qing cavalry shouted: "Kill! Kill!", regardless of the Ming army's artillery fire, they rushed forward without hesitation. The remaining shield chariots and infantry on the position also shouted, rushing forward desperately, firing and throwing grenades.

Faced with this desperate charge, all the machine guns and rifles on the Ming army's positions sounded at the same time, and the 12.7-caliber machine gun and a 7.63 machine gun of the "Chang'an" armored vehicle also fired mercilessly. The Qing army's cavalry fell one after another under the extremely strong strafing. Even so, under the cover of the infantry rushing in front, more than 30 cavalry rushed to the Ming army's trenches.

A hand-to-hand battle inevitably took place. Fortunately, the Qing army rushed up with only fifty infantry, and Zhou Weiming had 117 soldiers in a company, plus the twelve people left on the position by Tian Deli, as well as Sun Du and Sun Du's four guards joined together, fighting with more than less, and finally finally killed all the Qing army that rushed up, but its own casualties were a bit unacceptable. More than fifty Qing army members actually killed 82 people.

Zhou Weiming dragged his injured left arm and looked at the battlefield filled with smoke. His eyes were a little hollow, and then a tear fell from his eyes.
