As the sound of artillery shells sounded, most of the soldiers at the lookout mail at the top of Shouhuai City hid their bodies deeply in the simple but they were the only sandbag fortifications they could hide.

The soldiers from the new supply battalion to the 48th Regiment are said to be new recruits, but they are not "new". In fact, many of them are the soldiers from the original 15th Division's replenishment regiment. Many of them have been in the army for three or four years, but they are much older than the younger "veterans". However, the veteran squad leader is afraid that his little brother will not be able to take good care of the veterans, so he sent him three soldiers with similar military qualifications.

But even so, after hearing the sound of cannonballs, they quickly hid their bodies, and their movements were much better than putting their heads on and looking at the young deputy squad leader in the distance.

Yes, the moment when all the soldiers were hiding, the young "veteran" did not hide, but instead poked his head out and muttered to himself: "This is a 105 howitzer, and the Blackhawk Empire is testing the Shouhuai City."

Sure enough, a few seconds later, a cloud of smoke rose from the fields about 500 meters away from the south gate of Shouhuai City!

On the banks of the Kingdom Military Academy, the young deputy squad leader who had at least five or six saturated artillery shellings of the Black Hawk Army has learned to identify the sound of cannons. This is just a test shot, which is used by the Black Hawk Empire artillery group to correct the shooting parameters! The first shell fell outside Shouhuai City. It seems that the artillery of the Black Hawk Empire is likely to start with Shouhuai City and then cover the entire Huangsu City.

The young deputy squad leader was right. A few kilometers away from him that he could not see, the muzzles of 36 field guns, 12 105 howitzers and 16 mountain guns were all towering and pointing towards Huangsucheng.

That's because when Gu Tian, ​​the commander of the Black Hawk Army's front line commander in charge of attacking the west of the city, led the 13th Infantry Regiment to the west of the city, he was surprised to find that the actual situation in the west of Huangsu City was very different from what he imagined.

Huangsucheng does not mean that the city is inside the city wall, and the village is outside the city wall is outside the village is around the countryside. After hundreds of years of development, the residents of Huangsucheng, a major southern town, have long been no longer satisfied with building houses within the city wall. Outside the Huangsu city wall and moat, there are also dense residential and alleys, which is also part of Huangsucheng. If you want to attack Huangsucheng, you must first enter the street surrounded by residential buildings and march into Huangsucheng.

In fact, this situation is not only the West City, but also the East City and the South City. But what makes the Black Hawk Empire Army Major General the head of the West City is that there is actually a miniature city surrounded by a city wall and a small moat in this house. What's more serious is that through reconnaissance, there are kingdoms in that city.

Not only were there kingdoms, but also kingdoms built a complete heavy firepower in the small town with a radius of only 0.5 kilometers. A reconnaissance squad was accidentally covered by fire because it was too close. Six Imperial warriors were killed on the spot and three were seriously injured. If it weren't for the cover of infantry artillery artillery artillery artillery, the reconnaissance squad would have almost never come back.

After observing in the telescope for a long time, Ding Beiwei issued an order to cover the attack from the west of the city to Huangsu City.

In order to strengthen the firepower of the artillery group directly under the division, Ding Beiwei temporarily assigned the mountain artillery squadrons of the four infantry corps to be commanded by the 6th Artillery Regiment before marching towards Huangsucheng. That is to say, the artillery that the infantry corps can use now is the 2 infantry artillery in the hands of each infantry brigade, a total of 6 infantry artillery in the hands of each infantry brigade, as well as the 4 infantry artillery, 2 mortars, and 4 combat defense artillery directly under the regiment.

All the remaining howitzers and cannons of the Sixth Division are in the hands of Ding Beiwei. The artillery cluster with a number of 64 artillery can be poured out more than 600 shells in one minute, and can drop more than 3,500 shells to the target in an hour. Not to mention that it is definitely a terrible existence in the Dongzhou battlefield, even in the Xizhou battlefield, which pursues artillery tactics, it is not inferior to the ace division of all countries.

With one round of howitzers, field cannons, and mountain cannons exploded hundreds or even dozens of meters in front of Shouhuai City, the sound of cannons gradually became sparse.

Tighten his helmet strap, and the young deputy squad leader hid his body deep inside the fortifications. The storm was about to come and the wind filled the building. This terrible tranquility indicates that a bigger storm is coming.

Sure enough, after almost five minutes, there were endless roars of shells above Shouhuai City! Moreover, the roars of shells that sounded this time were short and sharp, just like screaming in my ears! I was a little timid, let alone waiting for the shells to fall to the ground and explode, even hearing the roars on the top of my head would be scared.

The young deputy squad leader immediately put his fists under his chest, and at the same time he curled up desperately and pressed against the ground. He had taught several of his companions before going up to the city wall to observe the post. If he had not been killed by the bomb but was shocked to death by the violent vibration of the shells, it would be really unfair.

As for closing your eyes, it has nothing to do with tactics. It is not because you are afraid of being disgraced. You are simply asking for blessings from your ancestors. You have done everything you can do. Whether you can survive this level of shelling depends on luck.

The next moment, the young deputy squad leader had already stuffed his cotton ears and a bang suddenly burst out. The huge sound wave was like a spike, piercing his eardrum in an instant, causing his head to suffocate! If he hadn't stuffed his ears in advance, he would have been sure that he would have been deaf.

He did not see that an orange flame with black smoke exploded on the city wall less than 40 meters away from him. Obviously, he and his companions were not very lucky, but the two or three meters wide wall was hit by the first round of artillery attacks of the Black Hawk Army. Fortunately, the explosion point was more than 35 meters, and the huge air wave was raging on the city wall but did not destroy the sandbag fortifications he was hiding. If he was closer to 15 meters, the thick sandbag fortifications would probably be completely blown away by the air waves.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Almost at the same time, the city wall under him also shaking violently! It was like a small boat staying in the huge waves of the sea. The whole person felt like he wanted to vomit violently, which was the consequence of the strong vibration of the inner organs. If it weren't for his correct posture, he might not be trying to vomit, but vomiting blood.

Immediately afterwards, a continuous loud explosion sounded from the surroundings, but the young deputy squad leader could not hear it because his ears were temporarily deaf due to the first explosion just now.

The only feeling was that the violent tremor from the city wall under him was still reminding him that the artillery fire of the Black Hawk Army continued.

At this moment, the young deputy squad leader was not worried about whether he would be shot and turned into ashes, but about whether the city wall would collapse because he could not withstand the bombardment of shells. It was not him and a few companions who died, but also an infantry battalion responsible for the defense of the entire Shouhuai City and more than 500 infantry company 2 of the Independent Regiment Police Investigation Battalion.

Without the defense of the city wall, all firepower points must not be exposed to the open air and allowed the various artillery of the Black Hawk Army to rage.

The Black Hawk Empire's shells seemed to be endless, one after another, one after another. In a trance, I don't know how long it took, but in the feeling of this young soldier, it seemed that it had only passed for a moment, and another hundred years...

Until, he felt the trembling of the city wall below him was no longer as violent as before, and the sound of cannons seemed very close, and as if it was very far away.

What came from the sky was full of burnt and extremely choking smell of gunpowder.

He stood up in a daze and opened his eyes.

The place where you see is full of thick smoke, which not only blocks your vision, but also makes people unable to breathe!

After a while, the smoke covering the city finally slowly dissipated. The young deputy squad leader finally could barely see the scene within fifty meters around him. Forty meters away, a huge gap had been blown up in a section of the city wall. The rammed earth that stood proudly after hundreds of years of wind and rain was extremely fragile in the power of the 105 howitzer. The collapsed loess and blue bricks formed a huge gentle slope inside and outside the city wall!

The autumn wind in the south blew over, blowing the smoke further away. A little dull look around. The blue-tiled and white-walled southern buildings in Shouhuai City, which once had a garden style, were blown into chaos by the terrible artillery fire. The small bridge and flowing water never saw each other again, leaving only balls of darkness and ruins.

It is not much better outside Shouhuai City. Many houses have become rubble, and many houses have fired and smoke. The artillery fire of the Black Hawk Army did not stop. Instead, after ravaging the houses outside the city wall, the artillery fire extended to the inside of Huangsu City. Balls of terrible fireballs soared into the sky within the city wall, and the rumbling explosions were still clearly heard.

But the young deputy squad leader had no time to be sad about this beautiful southern town moaning under the raging fire of the Black Hawk Army. At this time, the smoke covering the city had become very faint, and his sight could be seen far away.

About a thousand meters away, teams of Black Hawk Imperial infantry were vaguely lined up, and several tanks were emitting thick smoke and heading towards Shouhuai City. The Black Hawk Imperials couldn't wait to launch an attack. While their artillery fire was still firing violently, the young deputy squad leader raised the rifle that had been holding in his arms and pulled the trigger towards the distant Black Hawk Imperials!

Of course it is not shooting, but warning. But based on the principle of not wasting, the young deputy squad leader subconsciously pointed the gun at the direction of the Black Hawk Army. What if the bullet fell and killed them!

"Bang!" A crisp rifle gun sounded immediately from the city.

After firing a shot, the young deputy squad leader jumped out of the fortification and ran along the passage of the city wall towards the battle position where his infantry company was located.

"The Black Hawk Empire is coming soon, brothers, follow me back to the position." The young deputy squad leader shouted loudly as he ran.

As the warning sentries, their mission has been completed. Now that the battle is about to begin, they should return to their position.

However, no one responded.

The young deputy squad leader had just run for less than two steps and instinctively stopped.

"A son of a turtle, are you deaf? Shapi, Wu Mazi, Lao Dan..." The young deputy squad leader shouted at him angrily, but no one responded.

First, my face was tragic, then I suddenly realized that I took out the cotton in my ears and continued to name it with hope. "I almost forgot to plug my ears, Shapi, Wu Mazi, Lao Dan..."

Except for the crackling sound of wood burning on the top of the city and the rumbling cannons coming from afar, no one answered.

The young deputy squad leader's tears came down, turning his face, which had been darkened by the smoke of gunpowder into a big blurred face. Although these three soldiers only knew their names before reaching his infantry squad, they were robes. They were robes that they would rely on in future battles.

Now, it's gone.

"Don't pretend to be dead for you, just come out for me."
