"I have ordered the troops to open a road to Buenos Aires as quickly as possible and at all costs. We must achieve the goal of annihilating the Argentine army as quickly as possible!"
Once upon a time, the Pampas was peaceful, but now the clouds of war are hanging over this endless prairie.
Although the sun above their heads was very poisonous, the people standing in the shadows could not feel the sunshine at all - the huge airship blocked the sun, but it could not stop people's enthusiasm. The soldiers continued to move boxes one after another from the carriage.
, in the cabin of the airship, the airship soldiers used pulleys to hoist the boxes onto the airship, and then placed them one by one in the cabin.
"Twelve from the left..."
The cabin seemed a bit stuffy, and the airship soldiers in the corridor all took off their military uniforms. While they were busy, Wang Xinyue, the captain of the airship brigade, looked out of the window and saw twelve airships on the grassland like guards.
They are arranged neatly here. Although there is no mooring tower here, the airships are kept five or six meters above the ground by the mooring ropes. There is a carriage parked under each airship, and the soldiers are heading towards the airship.
It carries supplies, fuel, weapons, and even food, even if it's not necessary at all.
But the most important thing is the weapons. This is the first attack of the airship unit!
In just a few months, with the efforts of multiple factories, a total of 12 airships were produced. This is definitely a miracle.
"It's so spectacular!"
Standing on the ground, Zhao Xiangbai was amazed, so he picked up a Phoenix 100 35mm camera and took a photo - a family photo of twelve FT3-1 airships. In fact, the photos he took were destined to be...
It went down in history because it was the first true air-to-ground battle in human history.
From the air to the ground!
The pattern of war was changed on this day!
It has completely changed. From then on, for the world, war has become completely different. For those armies that are still immersed in the old era, they are destined to be eliminated.
It took almost an hour to complete the replenishment. The airship unit that came all the way from Nanhua sent out the signal to set off. The ground crew immediately released the sandbags on the mooring ropes and pulled the ropes in groups of twelve.
Leave the rope until all the sandbags are loosened.
"1...2...3...let go!"
Following the command, the ground crew released the mooring rope at the same time. If they were still holding on, they might be dragged into the air.
The airship took off.
The twelve airships rose slowly like prehistoric behemoths. The roar of the engines echoed. Soon, they flew to an altitude of thousands of meters. At this time, the roar of the engines could no longer be heard.
.
Although there is no deliberate camouflage, at an altitude of a thousand meters, those white airships are still perfectly hidden in the sky. At most, only a white object can be seen.
But even if you see it, so what? Who can imagine what is flying in the sky?
The twelve airships were flying forward like this. Wang Xinyue, the captain, once again measured the position with a sextant, and the deputy captain Li Long on the side was drawing a route map. They were like sailing on the sea.
They use a sextant and a longitude table to determine their position, but their ocean is the sky.
"We will arrive at our destination in almost two hours!"
Their destination is Trent Lawn, only thirty kilometers away from the border, where more than 30,000 Argentine troops are now gathered.
"Let everyone take a rest!"
Wang Xinyue glanced at some photos posted on the porthole. They were photos taken three days ago during the reconnaissance of Trent Lawn. Phoenix Camera Company designed a telephoto camera for the airship troops, with a diameter of 2,000 meters.
The photos taken from high altitude can clearly see the carriage on the ground.
This time their target was the barracks in the rear. Thousands of tents were scattered on the grassland, so unobstructed and without any protection at all.
What precautions are needed?
Since the army arrived here, tens of thousands of Argentine soldiers have dug trenches, forts, barbed wires, and trenches along Trent Lawn. Now Trent Lawn has become a fortress. According to them -
—“This is Argentina’s “Fortress of Humaita”.
Fortress of Humaita is a fortress in Paraguay. It is equipped with hundreds of large and small bunkers and more than 300 artillery pieces of various calibers. The waterway to Asuncion is within its range. It is known as the "Cevas of South America".
Topol".
A few years ago, during the Paraguayan War, Argentines and Brazilians shed their blood and tears there.
Now according to General Adolfo Alsina - we will let the South Chinese shed their blood and tears here!
The military camp is located in this field fortress built with hundreds of cannons and fortresses. Although it is unobstructed, the trenches, parapets, trenches, and barbed wire are actually enough to block anyone from attacking the military camp.
The military camp seemed quite lively at noon. Soldiers from all over Argentina were happily crowding in front of the cooking carriage and queuing up to receive lunch. Various languages such as Spanish, Italian and German were echoed in the camp, which fully demonstrated the atmosphere.
This is a country of immigrants.
"I say, Duke, are you thinking of your lover?"
Peedee, who was enjoying his lunch, looked at Duke in a daze and joked.
"Lover? Which one is it?"
After coming back to his senses, Duke pretended to be surprised.
"Which one are you talking about?"
"How many more can you have?"
"How come Italian men don't have many lovers?"
Amidst the proud laughter, Duke pointed into the distance and said.
"How could I not miss them? They are all beautiful in their own way, some have beautiful hair, some have beautiful eyes, some have bodies that can make anyone crazy, and some have beautiful faces that will make you...
…”
When Duke told all this, it seemed as if he really had so many lovers, but in fact? Maybe, maybe, at most, he just had one lover.
Italian men are passionate and good lovers, but they are just paupers. Women are always realistic!
But no one exposed him, so I listened to it as a story to pass the time.
But Duke's words suddenly stopped, as if he was recalling his lover's face.
Piddy raised his head and said while eating.
"Duke, please stop bragging..."
His words suddenly stopped, and he raised his head and muttered to himself.
"What? Is it raining? There is obviously sunshine?"
