If there are tens of thousands of people, there will be no boundaries.
What does it feel like when thousands of people and horses rush toward you?
If you were an ordinary person, you would probably faint from being frightened.
But in the eyes of Wang Fengshan, commander of the 8th Battalion of the 36th Regiment of the 9th Division, it was nothing.
Veterans of the National Defense Force have long been accustomed to such scenes.
And most of the time, the National Defense Forces use less to fight more and win.
Even though there were only more than a thousand people in their battalion, Wang Fengshan was very confident that he would not let a single enemy rush through.
He is like this, and so is the Eighth Battalion from top to bottom.
Everyone stood quietly at their posts and silently loaded ammunition into their muskets.
The soldiers standing in the second and third rows even took out chocolates from their pockets and put them in their mouths.
But no matter what, mortar bombing has limited effect.
Just because the soldiers of the Qing army were brave and good at fighting, but they were all stupid and ignorant. Once the generals became similar to other people, they could not find their backbone. They were like headless flies on the battlefield, not knowing what to do.
Personal bravery is nothing in the face of the steel storm.
Some soldiers took out iron pliers and rushed forward, trying to open the passage for the entire army.
The messenger standing behind him raised the two small red flags in his hands into the air.
An uneducated army that dares to play this trick is simply seeking death.
While many soldiers fell, the shield soldiers of the Qing army rushed up and formed a group.
Of course, it is a mark that only the National Defense Forces themselves can recognize.
After experiencing multiple attacks from artillery, rocket launchers, and mortars, Shuosei led the soldiers who narrowly escaped death and finally rushed to the barbed wire fence.
Wang Fengshan's hand fell, and the two small red flags quickly crossed and waved.
But it is quite lacking in terms of range.
At the very least, even after exhausting all Zuo Menggeng’s knowledge, he still couldn’t get a solid fuel propellant.
The broad flat land was unobstructed, and the figures of the Qing soldiers were clearly visible. Rockets came down one after another. Although they tried hard to avoid them, the effect was minimal.
A row of gunshots sounded like fried beans, and like a torrential rain, it swept away the Qing soldiers in front of the barbed wire fence.
Of course, after fighting for so long, the Qing army had not thought of ways to deal with the Wehrmacht's artillery array.
Whoever has bright armor on the Qing army is more likely to be shot.
They have all their abilities, but they have nowhere to put them to use.
The Qing army had no choice but to send people to block the attack immediately after the shield soldiers were killed.
Some soldiers raised their shields in despair, but what could they block?
Seeing this, Wang Fengshan immediately asked the messenger to convey the signal to the artillery unit.
The National Defense Forces on the opposite side were both far and near, as if they could be touched easily, but yet they were out of reach.
The sharp, devilish sound of the whistle activated the muskets in the soldiers' hands.
Naturally, the soldiers of the National Defense Force would be injured and killed in such a blow, but everyone remained indifferent and stood still, only waiting for orders attentively.
If Zuo Menggeng knew about the situation of the Qing army, he would definitely sneer at him.
Rocket launchers and mortars also began to join the attack sequence.
As for whether they can maintain their formation, it no longer matters. If everyone dies, what else will they have to fight against the National Defense Forces?
The long-range weapons of the Qing army were also desperately being transported forward, and then directed towards the National Defense Forces.
Fortunately, the reloading of the rocket launcher was very slow. After one round of strikes, this devastating whistling sound finally disappeared for the time being.
Under the artillery fire, Qing soldiers were killed one by one, and the blood flowing moistened this barren land.
Some people were so whimsical that they actually raised their shields to the sky, hoping to stop the falling cannonballs in this way.
Therefore, Yu Lichun set the attack distance of the rocket launcher to one thousand meters to maximize the coverage effect of the rocket launcher.
Bagala, the most proud and brave among the Qing troops, was no better than the leaves in the autumn wind at this moment.
"Charge up, cut the barbed wire, and fight hand to hand!"
Of course, this distance cannot be said to be far, but it cannot be said to be close either.
At the very least, except for a few powerful archers in the Qing army, everyone else looked down upon the National Defense Forces.
For this reason, Huang Taiji once learned from the painful experience and reformed the Qing army's clothing. He made the generals more ordinary so that they could blend in among the soldiers and not be easily targeted.
The five company commanders in the first row saw the signal and blew their whistles at the same time.
Shuo Sai jumped up from the ground and shouted at the top of his lungs.
No matter how strong the shield is, it can only withstand bullets, but it can do nothing against the explosion of cannonballs.
Although he yelled loudly, his figure was very obscene. At the same time, he paid careful attention to the opposite side, for fear that someone would take a cold shot at him.
But at this distance, the muskets in the hands of the National Defense Forces can be deadly weapons as long as they are slightly aimed.
In the bustle, some barbed wire fences were cut open.
Wang Fengshan saw this and immediately raised his hands.
As for the difference...
Directly in front of them, the Eight Banners infantry led by Shuosei were rushing towards them despite overwhelming artillery fire.
The large shields are connected in a line, like a wall. At least the IDF muskets cannot penetrate it.
The mortar company not far behind quickly adjusted its target and hit the shield array one by one.
The kinetic energy of this kind of rocket launcher uses solid gunpowder plus gasoline, so it has the ability to continue propulsion.
One thousand meters.
It can only reach as far as two thousand meters.
Before the Qing army could be happy, many Scissorhands were killed.
More and more Qing soldiers rushed forward, cutting the barbed wire fence with large pliers, showing the Qing soldiers' ardent hope of survival.
As you can imagine, the powerful impact of the explosion made these people act the stupidest fools.
As for accuracy, it all depends on luck.
But soon afterwards, I had no choice but to change it back.
This is something only veterans know from experience.
Eating a piece of chocolate during a fierce battle can replenish your physical strength. Chewing something in your mouth can also relieve stress.
In particular, the mortar shells fell in the air and passed through the shield's defense.
In desperation, they had no choice but to spread out even more.
Only an army like the National Defense Force, which is well-educated from top to bottom, can allow its generals to dress plainly on the battlefield. This will not only make them recognizable to the soldiers, but will also make them less likely to be discovered by the enemy.
The rocket launchers developed by the National Defense Force are actually completely different from those of later generations.
The distance between the two sides is about 115 meters.
Through the Korean War, everyone in the Qing army understood that the National Defense Forces did not respect martial ethics.
But those with fine and bright armor must be generals.
There was even a general standing by them giving orders, but they were stunned and didn't know who this person was.
The people next to me did not dare to neglect, picked up the pliers and continued the operation.
But is their desperate effort really useful?
There were eight layers of barbed wire, and the Ninth Division frantically entangled the barbed wires together.
To completely break through the barbed wire formation, the Qing army did not know how much it would pay.
