Due to the limitations of technology and manufacturing levels, European warships in the 17th century were often equipped with only the following three types of shells...
The first type
Solid bullet
As the name suggests, this kind of shell is just a solid iron ball!
It is used to attack the hull of a ship on the sea surface, causing the seawater to pour in after the hole, and the other ship will naturally sink...
On land, it mainly relies on the principle of resurgence of shells for linear impact.
Just as good as those neatly arranged rifle teams
But to hit targets in the trenches... it's like playing tricks, not to mention that Yan Bing specially ordered people to build a small slope with soil in front of the trenches... so that the jumping can jump further on the slope, until the soldiers in the trenches exposed their heads, and the shells can still cross high above their heads...
And the second type
It's something called a chain bullet
This type of shell is often made of two shells that are two circles smaller than the diameter of the muzzle, connected by iron chains in the middle. After being fired, the two shells rotate wildly under the interaction of centrifugal force and chains. They can tear a big hole in the opponent's sail. If you are lucky, they can also interrupt the opponent's lift cable or mast, completely paralyzing the opponent's movement...
This type of shell is also mainly used in naval combat, so it does not pose any threat to the trenches!
The last one
It is called a grape bomb...
This kind of field gun with Yanbing is also equipped, so naturally there is no need to elaborate on anything else. In short, its disadvantage is only one...
The range is close...
The reason why Bing has set up so many fake camps and large trenches is to avoid the large number of casualties caused by this shell.
Therefore, after receiving Yan Bing's order, school officials at all levels, who had already planned several times, immediately led their battalions to pull artillery and went to the trench on the westmost side of the camp to hide...
All the supplies and ammunition were moved into this trench half a month ago!
Half a month ago...
It was the day when the military information of the Haigong Map and Miyazaki Port were sent to her handsome case one after another...
As early as that time, Yan Bing was ready to deal with various emergencies!
Except... the Dutch infantry with two thousand people was completely unexpected...
But just as she had never expected... the other party could not have expected that her two thousand infantry would be defeated by the other party's one hundred infantry... and returned in disgrace...
Yan Bing has considered this very carefully just by pursuing this point. How to reward this team of 100 people who have made great achievements after returning...
But now... I'll think about how to annihilate the enemy first!
More than a hundred enemy ships had already passed through the sea fog and appeared in front of everyone...
"No one is allowed to walk out of the trench without my orders!"
"yes!!"
"Don't walk out of the trench!"
"Don't walk out of the trench..."
“No…”
He shouted one after another, repeated Yan Bing's orders, and the artillery was also pushed into the trench along the gentle slope by the artillerymen...
Most of these artillery are not loaded with ammunition, because they are afraid that if the other party accidentally hits the artillery, it will cause a death-destruction and kill a large number of soldiers hiding in the trench...
But among them... there are five artillery pieces loaded in advance, but they are not shells... but five fireworks...
This is what Yan Bing used to send signals to the fleet hiding behind various islands...
Just wait for the other party's ship to get close enough! She will order people to send a signal and use her fleet to cooperate with the artillery battalion on the land to capture the Dutch all in one place!!
Ideal... is full...
Reality... I guessed wrongly...
Yan Bing never expected that when the other party was still two or three kilometers away from the camp, he stopped moving forward, but slowly expanded his oblique shelling formation on the sea!!
"Damn...what does it mean...why don't you move forward anymore!?"
Yes...why not move forward...?
This question has always been filled with Yan Bing's brain, but no matter how she thinks or guesses, she will not guess that this is a military order issued by the other party's commander-in-chief...
Why did the Dutch army, which has always been extremely arrogant, suddenly become so cautious?
Just wandering on the edge of the "pocket array" and failing to move forward!
If she wants to let her know that this is also the "credit" made by the 100-man team, I wonder how she will feel...
Just as she looked at the enemy's fleet and was puzzled, the other party... took the lead in firing...
And the goal... is naturally what camps set up by Yan Bing...
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang...——!!"
"Boom...——!!"
"Crazy la la la la la la la..."
Thousands of artillery fired violently at the empty camp!!
Countless large iron balls shuttle back and forth in the tent made of leather felt and linen!!
The Dutch commanders, holding telescopes, looked at the camp, wondering why they had not seen any panicked Liang soldier...
The commanders of the Shenji Camp looked at the other side's ship with telescopes, curious why the commander had not issued an order to attack...
The battlefield... was once in an unprecedentedly embarrassing situation...
It was just because the commanders of both sides... both misjudged...
The Dutch did not expect that the other party... was prepared and hid in the trench...
Yan Bing didn't expect that the other party... was prepared for a long time and refused to go deeper...
So the battlefield fell into a stalemate under the premise that Yan Bing's continuous loss of "tents"...
"Damn it!! You guys go a few miles ahead!!!"
"Shit!!! Why didn't the other party react?!!!"
The commander-in-chief of both sides made swear words at almost the same moment at different locations...
Five rounds of artillery attacks...
It only takes two minutes...
Two minutes later, Major Darrens had to follow the commander-in-chief's instructions and issue an order to evacuate the battlefield...
At this moment, he was worried about how to write this war report after he went back...
Report to the General... Our army successfully destroyed a large number of tents and camps of the other party, but could not count the specific casualties of the other party's personnel... In the end, we could only make a conclusion that hundreds of people were expected to be injured and killed...
Oh my God... I heard that this is still human words... How should I write it...
Yan Bing is holding up a telescope and is so anxious that she curses...
"Why did they turn around???Damn it!! Don't leave!! Oh my go... I've been planning for half a month!! This half month has been wasted!!"
"The coach...why we... fight..."
"Fight!! Hit it!! Send the signal!! All the cannons are also set off for me!! If you don't fight, you will be all the way out!!!" Yan Bing was so angry that he stomped his feet. With a command, five signal flares were quickly hit into the sky!
At the same time, hundreds of artillery were also pushed out of the trench by the soldiers, and boxes of bullets were quickly removed from the steel plate, dug out of the soil, and moved to the artillery camp position... These signs indicate that they had been waiting for a long time this day... but no one expected that they would finally wait for such a result...
For a moment... all the soldiers were in a mess... the position also seemed a little embarrassed in a hurry... but they didn't care about so much, and they rushed to load ammunition. When they pulled the rope, dozens of cannons took the lead in launching the shelling!!
"Major! The other party has started to fight back!!"
"Hmph... I'm just starting to fight back now? This distance... can they fight..."
"Boom-!! Bang-!!!!"
"Chalalala--!!"
"His Major!! The Hague and Rotterdam were both shot!! The fire ignited..."
"Bang-!!!!"
"boom--!!!!"
Before the sergeant could finish his words, a loud bang came again, and the scorching flames had obviously ignited the gunpowder depot of one of the warships! After a dazzling white light and huge air waves, the huge frigate that was just now arrogant was blown into a pile of debris in front of them...
In the cabin that was frantically filled by sea water, there were groups of at a loss of Dutch soldiers. They had no idea what was going on, so they could only hold the boat helplessly in the fire, wailing...⑧①ZW.????m
I can't understand...How come I only got hit by a few shells and had such a result? Is all this the arrangement of fate?
No…The next round of shelling will tell them the answer soon…
All of this... is just an arrangement brought about by the huge technological gap between the two countries...
