There used to be a seven-story clock tower at Haicheng East Railway Station, which was considered the commanding heights of the surrounding area, but now only three stories are left after it was blown up by artillery.
Boss Wang stood on the ruined three-story bell tower and looked at the deployment of the Dongdi army not far away.
There is nothing good to say about fighting in this era. It must be to rely on dense formations to charge upward. This is what we are least afraid of. Although the area of the train station is not small, Boss Wang has brought in two main groups, which are more than one
There are more than 10,000 people, plus the help of peripheral artillery.
You two divisions want to take over the train station? Let's stop!
"Listen to me later. If the enemy attacks, we will counterattack on several levels at the same time. No one can rush out for me. They must stay in their own positions and find a good defense at the same time.
Cannon hole.”
Boss Wang gave the order while observing. Our task is not to eat them, but to attract them here. Only when they are beaten to pain will they think about round after round of revenge, like moths to the flame.
Likewise, in the process of their revenge, we begin to harvest their lives.
At the same time, the Marquis has mobilized five regiments of troops and is already preparing to start. It will take at most twenty hours for the Marquis' troops to be deployed. At that time, we will kill like tigers descending from the mountain and fight with the brothers around us.
The troops annihilated them together.
"Write down the coordinates of their artillery and bring me the artillery first."
Boss Wang discovered the Artillery Regiment of the Fourth Division through his telescope.
Boss Wang has long been dissatisfied with this kind of backward artillery, and it is not enough to waste time.
But if there really is a fight, such backward artillery can also cause us some damage, so we should remove them first to prevent our soldiers from being injured.
The current transmission system in the military still relies on oral transmission and semaphore transmission.
Therefore, the transmission speed is relatively slow. For example, it took more than five minutes for Boss Wang's order to be transmitted to the artillery. This is not considered slow. If the training is not in place, it may take ten minutes.
Before Xiangyue Qingchuan was ready, he heard the sound of artillery shells exploding.
there……
Xiangyue Qingchuan rushed out of the tent. The place where the explosion occurred was the artillery position on the left. The artillery position he had personally deployed had been destroyed by the anti-captive army before the battle started.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander..."
A communications soldier with a dark face came running from a distance and opened his mouth to report the situation there, but Xiangyue Qingchuan did not let her speak.
Don’t you still understand the situation in front of you? Do you need me to report it again?
Xiangyue Qingchuan didn't want her nerves to be stung again.
The surprise given to him by the suppressing army was quite big.
In the past, he had seen the artillerymen of the suppressive army. They looked very lazy. They could not be expected to do anything important. Even the cannonballs were filled with soot.
Even if they know the artillery position, what is there to worry about? But today's scene completely changed his view. He only needs to know the location of your artillery position. In less than ten minutes, the entire artillery position will be in ruins.
The sea of fire broke out. In addition to more than 30 artillery pieces, more than 600 artillerymen, including 17 officers, were also killed in the sea of fire.
Fortunately, not all the artillery shells were sent over. If all the artillery shells were sent over, the power of the explosion would be enough to involve the surrounding infantry.
"Order the artillery regiment of the Fifth Division to hide temporarily. No one can reveal their position without my order."
The Artillery Regiment of the Fourth Division did not fire any artillery shells on the battlefield. One shell had already been taken away by the opponent. Now only the Artillery Regiment of the Fifth Division is left, so it must not be exposed until the critical moment.
The position of the artillery wing, otherwise the current result will be repeated.
The other officers said nothing, but they were shocked in their hearts. The artillery was taken away before the war started, which meant that they lost a lot of help. The battle might not be easy to fight later.
"Sato-kun."
Xiangyue Qingchuan began to order generals, and all the troops were already in place. At this time, the morale was high, and we must take advantage of the high morale to launch an attack.
"Hayi."
Walking out of the ranks of officers was a young officer in his thirties. This guy was the captain of the 17th Regiment of the 4th Division.
"You lead your Seventeenth Infantry Regiment to launch an attack from the front, and Sasaki's Nineteenth Infantry Regiment is responsible for covering and supporting. Don't be reluctant to fight, just let them expose all their firepower points."
Xiangyue Qingchuan only sent out two infantry regiments, not intending to fight a tough battle, but to investigate the firepower points of the train station and see the firepower of the suppressing army.
"Hayi."
The two officers immediately went down to prepare. In fifteen minutes they would launch an attack to the north of the train station.
Boss Wang led his soldiers to rush in from the west of the train station. Currently, that side is the position of the suppressive army.
Not far to the east of the train station is the sea, so there is no offensive terrain.
As for the south side of the train station, although it is an open area, the troops from Dongdi Kingdom have all come from the north, and there has not been any military movement there yet.
Moreover, in Xiangyue Qingchuan's view, the two divisions of his army should attack from the hardest place in the north, so as to demonstrate the power of the Dongdi army.
After the Battle of Haicheng began, the morale of the Dongdi Army continued to decline. Xiangyue Qingchuan wanted to show everyone whether you people can fight? Let us, the Fourth Division, stage a tough battle for you.
Boss Wang was still a little puzzled at the train station. It was supposed that he should wait for the troops from the south to be deployed before laying siege to the entire train station. Who knew that Xiangyue Qingchuan actually launched an exploratory attack from the north.
You don't have the time to test me. Since you have sent out these two infantry regiments, I am ready to give you a bite.
"Hit me hard."
Seeing two infantry regiments approaching from the north, Boss Wang was not polite at all.
The high and low firepower points on the Suppression Army position opened fire at the same time. In other words, there were no heavy machine guns in this era. If there were, I am afraid that this first wave of attacks would be able to kill half of them.
But even so, thousands of soldiers from the anti-caption army fired at the same time, and the firepower was no joke.
Not even a minute after the two infantry regiments of Dongdi State went up, they were stunned by this blow to the head. Hundreds of soldiers standing at the front lost their lives in an instant...?? This chapter has been completed!
