After Gao Shaoyi left, Wu Chuan began to take command, and soon discovered that Dongdi's army was far from simple. This time, not just one infantry brigade was dispatched, but three infantry brigade.
There are two highlands around Hengfu Port, one is Highland 202 and the other is Highland 250.
Based on the analysis of the current situation, there are two infantry brigades in the three infantry brigades, which attack the two highlands respectively. The other infantry brigades serve as mobile forces. If the suppressing army cannot keep up in any aspect, then this infantry brigades will attack the two highlands respectively.
The brigade will rush over immediately.
This is obviously looking down on us!
Wu Chuan was also very angry at this time. He thought that you came up to test our firepower. Unexpectedly, you came up to prepare for the main attack. After all, more than 3,000 people were invested.
"Immediately issue coordinates to the Navy."
When the enemy began to take action, Wu Chuan immediately issued coordinates to the navy's three destroyers. Although some heavy cruisers entered the combat position, after on-site analysis, we did not need to use the heavy cruiser's artillery shells.
The 120mm cannon can also deal with them.
After the rise of Dongdi Kingdom, there has never been such a battle. Even when the Daqian Empire fought, it was supported by the navy, and they never braved the enemy's naval artillery fire to attack.
In their view, even if our navy is destroyed, it is impossible for the people of the Daqian Empire to cooperate well with the sea and land. After all, their navy and army have not been established for a long time, especially their navy. Everyone
We know that the navy is a service that costs money and time. In such a short period of time, if the navy and army cooperate well, I would not believe that they could be killed.
However, after the first round of artillery shells were fired, these Dongdi troops were immediately dumbfounded. Dozens of artillery shells exploded in their camp. Although they had dispersed, two hundred people lost their lives in an instant.
.
How could it be so accurate?
This question is on the minds of all the soldiers in Dongdi.
"Send a telegram to Captain Zhou of the Navy. How did this happen? Didn't you tell them? There are only more than 3,000 people. Do they want to use up all their artillery shells?"
Ten minutes later, the enemies in front had already begun to retreat, but the naval bombardment still did not stop. Looking from Wuchuan's position, the three destroyers were fighting vigorously.
"Report to the leader of the regiment, the phone number of the naval liaison officer."
The long-distance telephone lines have not yet been opened, but calls between the forward positions and the naval liaison officers are already open.
In order to better help our brothers in the Army, the Navy has set up two liaison positions on land, where Navy liaison officers are stationed.
They can communicate directly with Army officers by telephone, and then command Navy warships by telegraph and semaphore.
Because the distance is relatively close, the semaphore method is actually a little faster.
"I said, brother, how did you fight? There are only more than 3,000 enemies in front of us, and you have thrown more than 300 rounds of artillery shells. Are our artillery shells already rich enough?"
Wu Chuan said with some distress that the artillery of the Marine Corps is similar to that of the Army. Their largest caliber artillery is the 105mm howitzer, but compared with the Navy's 120mm naval gun, it is really inferior.
, so I feel a little distressed in my heart. Ten people can get one shell on average, which is really a bit too rich.
"Reporting to Captain Wu, Captain Xie Guangcun, a junior naval liaison officer, originally our plan was not like this, but the leader has just sent us a telegram, asking us to take this opportunity to train all the sailors on the warship and prepare for us
Tens of thousands of artillery shells..."
Upon hearing this, Wu Chuan finally understood what was going on. No wonder the naval warships were firing so vigorously. It turned out that the Duke of Guo had prepared enough cannonballs for them. Of course, they should take advantage of this opportunity to practice.
Three destroyers need tens of thousands of rounds of artillery shells?
Wu Chuan turned his head and looked at the three destroyers in the distance. If you shoot out all these tens of thousands of shells in such a short period of time, your gun barrels will also have to be replaced.
When Wu Chuan asked this question, the other party had already answered it.
"Report to Commander Wu, our combat time is from now to six o'clock in the evening. After six o'clock in the evening, three other destroyers will approach. Their combat time is only six hours. We have already arranged the shift.
Yes, the rotation is every six hours, and the officers and soldiers on the ship are rotated every two hours..."
The navy has made sufficient preparations for this battle, so Wu Chuan will not say anything. Everyone must have a chance to practice. It is not easy to have so many artillery shells, and they will not be able to compete with the Dongdi army.
, should we still throw it into the sea next to it?
But then again, the navy did waste a lot of artillery shells during training. The artillery did not stop at all along the way. Basically all of them were used for training. Fortunately, our country has money. If it were replaced
Others would have been so distressed that they were speechless.
But even so, Wu Chuan felt a little distressed. There were only a thousand people left out of the three thousand people just now, and he fired more than thirty shells while running back.
Your navy is really incompetent.
Wu Chuan was thinking just now that if someone rushes over, our soldiers here can also practice their grenades.
Since this thing was assigned from above, most of the time has been spent training on the training ground, and no one has participated in actual combat. If this is the case, we might as well fight a wave of actual combat.
When the navy and army officers of the suppressing army were arguing over the number of artillery shells, Prince Akutagawa, the second prince of the East Di Kingdom, also came to the front line, accompanied by the 15th and 17th divisions.
After seeing the battle report this afternoon, Prince Akutagawa's face turned black. How the hell was this war going on? Three infantry brigades went up and wandered around for more than fifty minutes.
The reorganized army of more than 3,000 people now has less than 1,000 old and weak soldiers left, and more than 200 of them were seriously injured, and more than 300 were slightly injured. Basically, half of them have lost their combat effectiveness.
.
If the fight continues like this, how can we win?
The most terrible thing is that so many people have been lost, and even their positions are still two to three hundred meters away!
