Xiliang and Guanzhong were the places that contributed the most when the empire was established. There was a strong martial arts culture and strong industrial power. With the support of Guanzhong and Liangzhou, Wang Hu easily led his army to Luoyang City, as he had done for more than a hundred years.
Same as before.
The fierce Battle of Luoyang lasted for forty days. The artillery of both sides fired hundreds of thousands of shells, destroying most of the buildings in the city and blasting the nearby terrain into craters. The Babel Tower stood outside the city. The target was too big to be eaten.
There were few artillery shells. Moreover, the imperial army also mounted artillery and heavy machine guns on it, which posed a great threat to the Xiliang army, so it received a key attack.
After the rail guns were transported by the Xiliang Military Railway, the battle between the two sides entered a fever pitch, with tens of thousands of people dying every day. The supplies consumed every day were astronomical. Even though Wang Hu had been mentally prepared for this,
Such casualties still secretly frightened him.
He appointed the deputy commander of the Xiliang Dragon Riders to act as command of the army, and organized 600 Xiliang Dragon Riders and 3,000 sergeants to form a "commando team" and prepared to launch an attack in the direction of the Babel Tower.
"Sergeants" are the degraded version and reserve of "Xiliang Dragon Riders", and they are also beyond mortal beings.
In so many years of exploration and development, the Knights have already found some effective methods of job transfer. The simplest and clearest among them is to go into battle and fight. As long as you kill enough enemies, you will naturally be able to break through the invisible barrier.
, to upgrade one's own strength and skills to a stronger level.
These 3,600 people are the majority of the strength of the Xiliang Dragon Riders. I heard that after the Grand Commander sent troops, the knights from each branch came with their sergeants from all over the place one after another, so this army was at its peak.
powerful army.
"Gentlemen," Wang Hu, who was as agile as a young boy, stood on the high platform and shouted to the neatly arranged knights and sergeants below: "We are trying to bring order out of chaos, and we are doing a just cause to save the people of the world. If we cannot kill
If you take the head of the false emperor, then let us die on the way to charge!"
He raised his arms and shouted: "For the Emperor!"
Thousands of people used up the breath in their chests and roared: "For the Emperor!"
Wang Hu raised his arm and slashed down, "Attack!"
The attack of the commando team is different from that of ordinary soldiers. There is no large-scale artillery preparation in advance. Instead, the infantry directly attacks the weak points of the enemy's position. After tearing apart the enemy's defense, they do not stay to consolidate the position.
, but continue to attack forward and leave the defense to the ordinary soldiers in the rear.
The battle went smoothly. Over the years, artillery has dominated the battlefield and become a veritable god of war. Before every large-scale attack, there is overwhelming artillery preparation. Without industrial strength, we simply cannot afford this kind of splendor.
A cruel war game.
The Imperial Army did not expect to suffer such a blow. Before the artillery in the rear could react, the position on the front line of Babel Tower had been lost. By the time the artillery turned around and bombarded the rear of the Xiliang Army, Wang Hu had already led
The knights penetrated the entire defense line and reached the Tower of Babel.
Tongtianda, which is a hundred feet high, has turned into a military stronghold. The imperial army not only placed many cannons and heavy machine guns on it, but also arranged many observation points on it to guide long-range artillery fire from the rear. If Tongtian Tower is not captured,
, the troops from Kanto will continue to pour in.
The Xiliang Dragon Cavalry cleared the enemy layer by layer, fighting with the Imperial Army soldiers who shouted "For the Emperor" from time to time. When the soldiers in the rear saw the fierce fighting breaking out here, they also continued to charge. However, the place was blocked by artillery fire.
, both sides were pouring artillery shells around the Tower of Babel, so the effect of the infantry charge was very bad. Apart from smearing more plasma and meat pulp on the ground, it did not have much practical significance.
Inside the Tower of Babel, explosions and rapid gunfire sounds could be heard from time to time. Seeing that the enemy was about to attack, the commander of the tooth soldiers said anxiously: "The rebels have already attacked, your Majesty, please leave through the emergency passage immediately!"
Chen Tao took a leisurely sip of wine and said: "Give orders to the heavy artillery groups at the rear, and then they will aim a hundred meters in front of the Tongtian Tower and carry out a covering strike."
"This... the distance is too close and may hurt His Majesty's dragon body."
"It doesn't matter," Chen Tao said with a smile, "I have my own destiny!"
The artillery shells that originally hit the surroundings were all fired by small-caliber artillery. With the transmission of radio waves, after confirming that the order was correct, the heavy artillery group at the rear immediately reset the shooting settings and aimed the thick muzzles at
Come here. The Xiliang Army can mobilize rail guns, and the Imperial Army can do the same thing.
In order to smash the fortresses in the Korean mountains, the empire prepared twelve super cannons. The shells weighed more than half a ton and had a range of forty kilometers. Every time they were fired, the ground shook. This kind of terrifying firepower
, if it hits, it can directly wipe out a team of knights.
However, the weakness of this kind of cannon is obvious, that is, it is very troublesome to operate. One cannon requires 1,500 people to serve, and the rate of fire is very slow. It takes four days to complete the preparations, and then two hours to fire one.
Cannonballs are veritable cannons.
These super weapons were originally stockpiled on the edge of the Yalu River together with 600,000 opposing troops, and now they have all been transferred back together.
The thick muzzle was raised, and after intense preparations, the artillerymen put on earmuffs and retreated quickly toward the rear.
"boom!"
The air and the earth vibrated together, and the flames when fired were more than three meters long. The moment the cannon was ejected from the chamber, a strong wind was generated out of thin air around it, and the steel guardrails were blown away. Even if you put on earmuffs, even if you wear earmuffs,
Even after retreating a few hundred meters, the artillerymen still felt that the world was spinning.
Wang Hu, who had just reached the 200th floor, heard a sharp whistling sound, as if a train was approaching. But this was already 400 meters high, so how could a train come here? Wang Hu
He was stunned for a moment, and then he understood. His face turned pale, and he shouted loudly: "Be careful of shelling!"
Be careful of shelling? Of course, people on the ground cannot hear his cry. Even if he is the best knight in the world, he cannot suppress the continuous roar and explosions on the battlefield and then transmit the sound to the ground. On the contrary, the following few
All the knights and sergeants on the upper floor heard the warning.
The screaming sound approached quickly and then quickly moved away, creating a strong air current that shook the people and objects inside the Tower of Babel. However, this wind pressure had no effect on the entire Tower of Babel.
This unique and miraculous building still stands on the ground without any changes.
Wang Hu grabbed the exposed steel bars and watched the huge shell go away, draw an arc in the air, and then hit the Xiliang Army's position. A huge roar came from far away, and the shell hit
The dirt and everything on it were thrown into the air.
Looking at the smoke and dust that was dozens of meters high, Wang Hu was silent for a while, and then roared: "We have to speed up!"
As the Imperial Army began to fire without scruple, the casualties of the Knights suddenly increased a lot. The higher they went, the more intense the resistance they encountered, and some crazy Imperial soldiers even turned their guns and pointed directly downwards.
The enemy opened fire, regardless of the fact that the explosion in the confined space would also involve them.
As the knights continued to charge upward, they could see something strange on their bodies from time to time, but the corpses of the imperial soldiers had blood flowing from their seven orifices. If their faces were not covered with blood, it would be almost impossible to tell that they had any injuries. In fact, their
The internal organs have been shattered.
Hearing the sound of gunfire and explosions getting closer and more intense, the commander of the tooth soldiers spoke again: "Your Majesty, please leave immediately!"
Chen Tao laughed loudly and said: "The bodyguard soldiers and the tooth soldiers are the two strongest armies established by Emperor Taizu. Later, the bodyguard soldiers were disbanded and all merged into the Xiliang Dragon Riders. I was thinking before, the bodyguards
Both the personal soldiers and the tooth soldiers are known to be the strongest, but which one is more powerful? Now it seems that the tooth soldiers still can’t beat the Xiliang Dragon Riders after all!"
The tooth soldier commander's face turned red, as if blood was dripping out. A thick breath came out of his nostrils. After being angry for a while, he shouted loudly: "The third team stays, the others follow me."
!”
He ran down a staircase in large strides, came to the edge of a passage, jumped up, grabbed the rope and quickly slid down. The wire programming gloves rubbed violently with the rope, and the temperature quickly rose to the point of
It was so hot that the soldiers behind could not do such an exaggerated thing. They rushed down the stairs with rifles and grenades.
The knights were walking up with rifles with bayonets fixed when they suddenly heard some strange noises. Wang Hu paused and raised his right fist, and the soldiers behind him became alert.
"Zizzi," it sounded like a cat's claws scratching on the glass, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
Wang Hujing listened for a while. As the voice got closer and closer, he suddenly understood and pointed the rifle at the patio beside him, "Here!"
"Pah! Pah! Pah!"
"Crack!"
"boom!"
The sound of rifle shooting, the sound of objects colliding, and the roar of bomb explosions sounded in a very short period of time. With sparks flashing, a black figure suddenly appeared on the patio. The man raised his arm, and the bomb had been thrown into the floor.
.Several bullets hit his side, making many craters on the cement wall, but none of them hit.
The black shadow did not stop after throwing the bomb, but fell directly to the lower floors. In that flash of lightning just now, Wang Hu had already recognized that the person who came was his most proud disciple, who is also the current fang soldier.
Commander--Xu Wuji.
Wang Hu was stunned for a moment while holding the rifle. The sound of continuous firing of pistols and rifles could be heard below, and the shouts of "For the Emperor" were loud, and then fell silent again.
"Okay, what a Xu Wuji!" Wang Hu reacted from the shock, and he said to the others around him: "You continue to attack, I will deal with him!"
