This should be the most violent bombardment in human history!
The artillery bombardment is not just one round, but a ten-minute artillery preparation!
In order to prepare for this artillery, the combat staff carefully planned the amount of artillery shells, specifically the rate of fire of two rounds per minute for field guns, 6 rounds per minute for 120mm mortars, and 3 rounds per minute for 150mm mortars. As for the Type 64
The Type 68 mortar is fired every three minutes.
In just ten minutes, hundreds of tons of steel explosives fell inside and outside the intended Afghan fortress.
The so-called field fortress was as vulnerable as paper in the face of such fierce artillery fire.
"boom……"
Thousands of artillery shells fell into the fortress, easily destroying the field fortress that took tens of thousands of Argentines nearly a month to build. The violent explosions collapsed the trenches into flat ground, and the fortress turned into ruins, dust and
Smoke was raging on the ground along with the steel fragments. The roaring steel fragments harvested nearby lives. The shock wave generated by the explosion shattered the internal organs of many people. When these people died, they still seemed to be intact on the surface.
.
These poor people even died silently like this.
The air was filled with the choking smell of gunpowder and thick smoke, and the people alive in the trenches were choking and coughing loudly.
These Argentines, whether they were Spanish, Italian, or German, had long been frightened by this violent shelling that they had never seen before. The frightened people huddled in the trenches holding their heads.
They cried, trembled, coughed, and many howled in despair. They never thought that war would be so cruel. Perhaps, they imagined that on the battlefield, they would line up and shoot with rifles again and again.
Either hit the enemy, or get hit, but what now?
Before they even saw the enemy, they were blown up into the sky. There were broken limbs and broken arms everywhere around them. People they once knew were blown away while they were talking.
The mental blow they have never experienced before. Fear, everyone is shrouded in unprecedented fear. Such a war is desperate, and the reason why they are desperate is because each of them is very aware of their own flesh and blood.
They can't resist artillery fire. At this time, they seem to understand what cannon fodder is.
Of course, if there is such a noun in Spanish.
Amid people's desperate screams, the earth was shaking violently. The dust falling from the sky and the blood raised by the broken limbs turned into pieces of blood rain. The rain fell from the sky, and red blood drops fell on the soldiers' bodies.
The faces, bodies, broken limbs, and smelly internal organs and intestines falling on the soldiers would only intensify their fear and make them scream in despair and terror.
At this moment, these white people who once thought they were superior were left with nothing but boundless fear. Despair occupied their entire bodies and minds.
"my Lord!"
General Adolf Alsina was not awakened from his sleep. He had not slept at all. I wonder if it was a soldier's intuition that told him that if he went deep into South China, the army would launch an attack in the next few days.
After experiencing a few days of uneasiness, General Adolf Alsina breathed a sigh of relief when an explosion came from the front line, but at the same time he felt another kind of fear!
It's fear!
Even from a few kilometers away, he could see the huge smoke pillars, and not even the twilight could stop those huge smoke clouds.
"General, general, did you see it? That's it, that's it, the witch's scream, the devil's scream..."
Colonel Marino, who was awakened from his sleep, pointed in the distance and shouted excitedly.
"I said, I said, they have a secret weapon that can destroy everything..."
Marino is a Chilean military officer. He once personally experienced the near-destructive blow of a heavy mortar in Chilian. Even now, he sometimes still has nightmares about the screams of witches, followed by devastating explosions.
And now, the nightmare of the past appeared before his eyes again, even more frightening and frightening than the last time.
"I see, Colonel, what now? Are they going to keep shelling like this?"
General Adolf Alsina asked.
Although he looked very calm on the surface, he was also full of fear in his heart. What he feared was not artillery fire, he said, what he feared was the change in the way of war.
"No, General."
Marino shook his head and said.
"It's just the beginning now. After a while, they will be like devils rushing out of hell. They will rush over screaming and blowing whistles and bugles. At the same time, they will continue to fire and use cannons.
Bombarding us, God, they are simply a group of devils, only devils would do this..."
Marino screamed with excitement. For them, this method of war is undoubtedly unfamiliar.
They must be unfamiliar, after all, this is how a battle is fought.
To put it bluntly, it's artillery bombardment and infantry attack!
For the Europeans to play this trick, they had to wait until the Franco-Prussian War before they started trying it. They had to wait until the end of the 19th century to get started, and they had to wait until World War I to be considered successful.
Now faced with such a dimensionality reduction attack, whether they are generals or soldiers, they are a bit clueless and have no idea what kind of fighting method this is.
Suddenly the heavy shelling stopped.
In an instant, the world seemed to be calm again.
The carefully constructed defense system on the west side of Trent Lawken has been completely destroyed!
The collapsed trenches were filled with people's desperate, panic-stricken screams and the heart-rending cries of the wounded soldiers, echoing in the trenches of the fortress, on the forts, and in the bunkers.
Now this place is no longer a fortress, but a bloody hell full of death. The field fortress defense projects that the engineers spent their efforts building were destroyed under the devastating artillery fire, and their appearance has completely changed——
There are craters several meters deep, soil overturned by shells, collapsed trenches, and burning logs. In addition, there are weapons, ammunition boxes, and blown-up barbed wire scattered around. In between this hell, there is only
There were only corpses and death left everywhere.
Among the broken weapons, corpse fragments can be seen everywhere, with broken limbs and arms scattered everywhere. There are not many complete corpses at all. After the nearly devastating shelling, only the dead people were left.
A few blackened stumps, or bloody pieces of flesh. More people didn't even leave anything behind, they completely disappeared under the devastating artillery fire.
In this hell, it seems that only some smelly internal organs are left! The artillery fire turned the complete earth into the surface of the moon, and the muddy water seeping out of the huge crater and the body fragments turned red.
destroy!
After the nearly devastating artillery fire, the seemingly complete fortress or defense line had completely disappeared. Since no complete trenches could be found, no bunkers, artillery fortresses and the like could be found, all of which had been destroyed.
"Run away! It's over..."
The survivors screamed and cried. No one wanted to stay in such hell. But when they tried to escape, they encountered officers coming from behind. They were driven away by the officers.
Returned to the battlefield.
"Damn cowards, cowards, the South Chinese have already come up, pick up your rifles, mount your bayonets, go kill those damn yellow people..."
The words of the officers were still full of contempt for the yellow race. In their eyes, the Chinese were as vulnerable as the Indians. Their sense of superiority made them unwilling to face failure like this.
Although they were afraid, they still drove those poor people to the battlefield like madmen.
Driven by the officers, the escapees returned to the battlefield again, but what was waiting for them?
It's death!
Just death!
