Rosas screamed desperately, but the others lay there like fools, letting the darts falling from the sky penetrate their bodies.
But standing there like this is definitely a challenge, a challenge to the spirit and will, especially when the "whoosh" or "pop" sounds of objects being inserted into the darts around him are heard one after another, and one living person after another
His life was taken away by darts. He lay silently in a pool of blood.
"ah……"
It was like being in the raindrops. Even if those darts fell almost against his eyelids, Rosas did not dare to move. He just stood on the road screaming in despair, and beside him
, poor people keep dying.
In the end what happened?
Rosas didn't know it, but on their march, death suddenly came, and no one knew what happened.
But many people died.
"God bless, God bless..."
While Rosas was chanting, he suddenly felt a stinging pain on his shoulder. When he fell limply, he saw a dart penetrate his body, and he even heard the sound of bones being penetrated.
At the moment of falling, the person loses consciousness.
When Rosas died, some lucky people rolled and rolled under the carriage on the roadside. They were undoubtedly lucky, but in front of them, it was like a slaughterhouse, and people kept dying.
.
For those who were lucky enough to survive, they just hid under the carriage and kept praying to the "God bless" they were chanting there!
But God is definitely not on their side now.
…
"The 12th Regiment was attacked by an air attack on the way to reinforcements. Of the 1,562 people in the regiment, 549 were killed and nearly a hundred were injured. God can testify that if this continues, all our people will be dead before the Chinese attack!"
In the basement of a manor in Trent Lawken, Rocca said in an almost desperate tone.
"Damn, even now, we don't know how they left these damn guys behind!"
Amid General Rocca's complaints, General Adolfo Alsina held this ten-centimetre-long iron nail. Although he said nothing, his expression was extremely complicated. The air raid two days ago
, millions of such iron nails fell from the sky like raindrops and fell on their heads, and then what?
Thousands of soldiers and officers died in air raids, but their lives were taken away silently by this little iron nail!
my Lord!
how so?
When did war become this way of fighting?
As a general, one can imagine the despair deep in his heart, which completely subverted his understanding of war.
The enemy actually launched an attack from the sky. How to resist it?
There is simply nothing we can do, and everyone can only do it here and wait for death.
"How can you throw nails from the air?"
The words of Major General Conrado Villegas spoke to Alsina's heart.
How did the war turn into this horrible state?
"Fortunately, they threw nails. If they had thrown bombs, maybe more people would have died."
Why no bomb was dropped, I am afraid only God knows.
"The worst part now is that they're throwing nails everywhere, General!"
Throwing the nail on the table, Alsina said.
"Some of my professors in Buenos Aires said that the South Chinese people probably threw such nails from airships. Although these nails are small, they are very powerful when thrown from an altitude of several hundred meters or more.
It is also extremely amazing. I think no one has any doubt about this. Although we know that it is a great threat, what is certain is that there is nothing we can do about it! Unless we pray that God can use his power to make them fall from the sky
Come down, otherwise our weapons will not be able to harm them at all!"
Although there was very little information about the airship, Alsina figured out what happened to the army through the speculations of the professors.
"Unfortunately, we encountered the first air raid in human history on the battlefield. What is even more unfortunate is that our existing weapons and methods cannot harm them at all..."
Looking at the generals present, Alsina took a deep breath and then said.
"However, thankfully, the power of this kind of nail is extremely limited. Although it is indeed a headache, as long as there are two-inch thick wooden boards and dozens of centimeters of soil, it can stop its damage. Now, we
The soldiers have left their tents and are living in strong shelters. As long as they are not standing in the open wilderness, there is no need to consider its threat. Therefore, believe me, gentlemen, we can still let Nan Hua survive here.
People will bleed dry, as for the reinforcements..."
After thinking about it, Alsina said.
"Let them come by train as much as possible and reinforce the top of the train. I believe we have plenty of ways to stop these nails!"
As a professional soldier, Alsina quickly found a way to deal with it. It was just some nails.
Then, he emphasized again.
"Gentlemen, the South Chinese people think they can destroy our morale with air strikes. We have to tell them that this is a dream. God can testify that this is Argentina's land. It was, is and will be in the future. If they want
If you occupy this land, you will have to pay the price with blood!"
Kang's passionate mobilization may arouse people's patriotism, but the pressure brought by the air raids is something that no one can ignore.
Not only could they not be ignored, but the rumors about the air raids quickly spread throughout Argentina and to Buenos Aires. Everywhere, people were talking about the air raids.
Among those who have never seen an airship, the airship seems to be a big ship. They say it is huge, just like the "Great Eastern". When it flies over the army or the city, the ship on it is
People will throw thousands of nails down. Although those nails look small, they can penetrate the roof and then penetrate the human body.
Although no one has ever suffered an air raid, it does not prevent them from using their imagination to talk about the false rumors that after a nail penetrates a person's body, a huge hole will be torn open, and all the bones and internal organs will be destroyed.
Pulled it out.
There are also legends that when nails are driven into the ground, they can bounce up and penetrate another person's body.
Nails may not seem like much, but they were definitely the most feared and hottest topic in Buenos Aires at the end of October 1869.
Although none of them have seen what those nails look like, through word of mouth, those nails have changed into various shapes. They can even explode. When they hit the unlucky ones, they will explode in their bodies.
Explosion inside the body.
Airship, nails...
It spread like this in the city and in the countryside, but in just a few days, fear spread unchecked.
People's fear of unknown things that they cannot understand is always insurmountable. For them, since it is difficult to imagine, then this thing must be very fatal. Of course, they will spread rumors about airships with added fuel and jealousy.
