Chapter 283: Slaughterhouse(2/2)

In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are vulnerable.

If a warrior of this era wants to compete with Zhao Yanxiang, the first prerequisite for the warriors is that they cannot read military books such as Sun Tzu's Art of War.

The war form has developed to this day and is no longer the time for conspiracies to be useful.

The reason why Sun Tzu's Art of War was popular in the Spring and Autumn Period and had a very high practical surname was that the productivity of that era was backward and the combat effectiveness of the army was poor, which was very likely to collapse due to various reasons.

In this era, productivity has increased, the army's ideas have been strengthened, the combat effectiveness has also increased rapidly, and the logistics has been basically solved.

Sun Tzu's Art of War may also be useful strategically, but it completely loses its practical significance in tactics.

Those who belong to Zhao Yan's same camp were happy because they saw hope for victory.

"Let the General Staff organize shelling in the evening, and then carry out shelling again, and then attack." Zhao Yan then issued an order to the General Staff.

Cut the mess with a quick knife.

Let this decisive battle end soon!

Chongzhen also issued an order to Sun Chuanting, ordering Sun Chuanting to attack and attack again, and strive to drive the New 01st Division out of the battlefield before the Ming Dynasty was in trouble.

Chongzhen didn't understand any military affairs at all. When he thought, there was still 210,000 troops on the front line at this time. Can't ten people beat one person?

...Sun Chuanting looked bitter after receiving Chongzhen's order, but at this time he did not admit defeat, but instead placed his hope on the night attack.

Since the new 01st Division has powerful firearms, it is better to attack the entire line at night and disrupt the situation, and success or failure will be achieved in one fell swoop.

In the evening, the sunset had already set in the direction of Fenglong Mountain, and the sky was filled with a bleak breath of autumn wind, just in the dim sky.

Suddenly, a rumbling sound of artillery came from the artillery position of the New 01st Division.

I saw light balls rising from the position of the New 01st Division, making a sharp whistling sound in the air, and then flew into the distance... Boom boom boom boom... These light balls quickly hit the military camp of the Beijing camp, and then made a shocking explosion.

It can be clearly seen on Fenglong Mountain that the stretching military camp of the Beijing camp was in an instant, and there were fire everywhere.

92 75mm caliber cannons lined up in a row and were placed at the forefront of the position.

64 105mm caliber howitzers and 24 150mm caliber howitzers were placed behind the array, and deafening sounds of cannons were heard one after another.

A 75-caliber shell alone can kill enemies within a diameter of 50 meters, while the power of a 150mm caliber howitzer is even stronger. Once it explodes, it will be a large pit with a diameter of more than ten meters, and it will inevitably be killed within a diameter of 100 meters.

The soldiers of the Beijing camp were beaten to death by artillery. At this time, the Beijing camp did not build bunkers on the front line at all, and suffered heavy losses under the shelling.

This is the king of land warfare - artillery!

The shelling continued. The artillery of the New 01st Division did not bombard all artillery together, but instead grouped the artillery. After a certain number of shells occurred in each group, it was the next group to prevent the barrel from overheating. When the shells were sufficient, it could be continuously fired, and there was no problem of maintaining firepower for several days.

However, even though the losses were heavy, Sun Chuanting did not order a retreat, but let the battalions be dispersed.

At this time, the night attack is the last choice. If you retreat, the night attack tonight may not be carried out.

The Beijing Camp was scattered in this 4-kilometer-wide corridor, but the artillery of the New 01st Division was too fierce and exceeded everyone's imagination.

It is not the intensity, but the power of the cannon.

The artillery of the New 01st Division is a kind of bombing by Xu Jin, that is, it continuously extends its range, plows over and over again, maintaining dense bombing firepower in the local area.

Sun Chuanting's order caused heavy losses to the Beijing camp. The artillery bombardment of the New 01st Division has not stopped at night, but it is still continuing to launch artillery shells. The shells appear particularly eye-catching and brilliant under the night sky.

As soon as the night began, Sun Chuanting braved the shelling and began to organize a night attack.

However, at this moment, a dazzling light suddenly appeared in front of the New 01st Division's position. Sun Chuanting picked up the telescope and looked at it. A new thing flashed in his mind - an electric light.

Strictly speaking, it is an arc lamp.

I saw several dazzling lights lit up on the positions of the New 01st Division one after another, and then more and more arc lights illuminated the entire position like daytime.

At this moment, Sun Chuanting knew that his night attack plan had completely gone bankrupt.

"Sir, let's retreat!"

"grown ups."

People on both sides of Sun Chuanting advised him that Sun Chuanting knew that it was meaningless to stay here again.

"Retreat." Sun Chuanting issued an order to retreat.

The Beijing Camp retreated overnight and retreated all the way to the built defense line. Seeing that the Beijing Camp retreated, the New 01st Division continued to launch artillery fire.

What they needed at this time was to disintegrate the morale of the entire Jing camp. When the Jing camp retreated behind their defense line, the artillery stopped the artillery.

Second, after breakfast, the New 01st Division continued to move forward under the command of the General Staff.

The new 01st Division was not moving too fast because they had to carry too much ammunition, and each infantry needed to assist in the transport. Fortunately, there were enough horses.

On the morning of the same day, after the New 01st Division advanced eight miles forward, it launched another fierce shelling at the Beijing Camp defense line in front.

The infantry immediately launched an attack, and this time they had completely given up on defense. Except for the reserve team, everyone else was involved in the attack.

The first line of defense of the Beijing Camp was very fragile. It only resisted the fierce shelling for two hours before retreating to the second line of defense.

When facing the New 01 Division, the Beijing Camp was basically passively beaten. Only the New 01 Division could hit them, but they were not the other party.

Any contact is a massacre.
