There are many VIP seats when watching racing, and of course there are many such so-called "seats" when watching war.
For example, if you have good physical fitness, you can definitely experience the lightness and agility of today's war by sitting in the cockpit of a fighter jet and doing an 18th continuous roll.
For another example, it is also a good choice to stand on the bridge of a super battleship, overlook the distant sea, and experience the bohemian feeling of riding the wind and waves.
For another example, putting your hands behind your back and putting your face on the eyepiece of the scissor gun scope, looking at the enemy's position through the gaps in the barbed wire, can be considered an alternative feeling.
Of course, everything has two sides. If you were squatting in a trench, enduring endless bombardment, and being viewed with an artillery mirror... that would not be a good thing.
Among the many "VIP seats", there is a good or bad viewing area, which is near the position of one's own artillery.
Burlison is under the wall of Bulkland Fortress at this moment, and above his head is the 283 mm caliber heavy railway gun modified fortress cannon that is firing wildly!
Originally, this type of artillery was the apple of the eye of the Army Artillery. Even during the battle to destroy the Holy Demon Empire, this type of train gun participated in several important battles.
However, as time went by, this kind of train gun, which relied heavily on railway maneuvers and gradually failed to keep up with the times in terms of power, became a useless thing that my uncle did not care about and my grandma did not like.
It is a pity that these expensive artillery pieces basically only fire a dozen or more shots, and some even only fire a few shots, and they can no longer keep up with the combat rhythm of modern warfare.
As a result, the treasures of the front-line combat troops had no choice but to be used by the second-line garrison troops. Later, the second-line troops also looked down upon them and had no choice but to seal them up.
It wasn't until the puppet empire surrendered and the huge mobile fortress of Bulklan became the trophy of the Eilanhir Empire that everything turned around.
Almost all the railway cannons produced by the Elanshir Empire, including the two 800 mm caliber Gustav cannons given to Chris by Grand Duke Sumolay of Ironforge, were all piled up on the Bulkerland Fortress.
.
Anyway, this fortress was given away for free, so it was piled up into an artillery fortress and a museum of ancient weapons.
Bulkland is not only equipped with two Gustav cannons, but also equipped with railway guns of various calibers, as well as a large number of rocket launchers and other weapons.
At this moment, standing under the city wall, or standing under those densely packed centipede legs, Burrison stuffed a warm burger into his mouth.
Speaking of this burger, I still have some experience. It was a signal soldier of Burleson who drove to a burger restaurant in Bulkland and bought it for him.
This may be the most pleasant expedition in recorded history: the combat troops are actually followed by a city that provides all kinds of warm services at any time.
Burlison can even guarantee that if Bulkland remains on the front line, the time for frontline soldiers to withdraw to the second line for rest can be extended by at least 30%!
"What are they talking about... digging out a river and then building a bridge?" Burlison complained while chewing a warm hamburger.
He had been listening to the sound of artillery for more than an hour. Even though he was still some distance away from the artillery, his ears were already numb from the shock.
There are at least 100 artillery pieces of various calibers firing non-stop, and the smallest caliber among them may be about 200 mm!
As early as an hour ago, the bombardment started with the thunderous roar of a huge 800mm-caliber cannon. All nearby soldiers were shocked by the symphony of artillery.
Because it needed to cool down and re-aim and reload, the Gustav cannon that was fired an hour ago made another loud noise just ten minutes ago.
The 283 mm caliber and 381 mm caliber train guns are different. Their rate of fire is slightly faster and they can fire at least three to five shots per hour.
Of course, when it comes to the K5 train gun, the performance of prototype artillery is very average, and the rate of fire can be faster. With the automatic loader provided by the fortress, this 283 mm caliber artillery can reach the limit of 11 rounds per hour.
Rate of fire!
"Yeah! The sound of this artillery is nice... 283 mm long barrel, long range and high accuracy... Not bad..." He took a hungry bite of the burger in his hand and tore the wrapping paper on the burger with one hand.
This kind of fast food with a piece of meat patty sandwiched between two pieces of bread is Burlison's favorite because it can be eaten with your hands and no utensils are required.
It is simply a great invention. Firstly, there is no need to wash the dishes after eating. Secondly, it does not take up any space. Thirdly, it is convenient and quick to have meat and bread in one bite. Fourthly, the price is quite affordable. At least for him who is a soldier, I bought it.
It only costs 9 silver coins each, which is not particularly expensive.
Of course, it is actually not cheap anymore. In the southern part of the Eilanhill Empire, this price can buy almost 10 kilograms of flour, which is enough for a group of people to eat for several days.
However, the soldiers on the front line are very rich. They receive daily allowances and live a life of bloodshed, so they are more willing to spend money.
Their spending power is also considered high within the Eilanhill Empire. Some officers may spend a lot of money in bars or other consumption venues. After all, their salaries are also very considerable.
The treatment given to the army by the Airanhill Empire has always been very generous, because the entire empire is built on the continuous victory of the army. From the founding of the country to the present, the Airanhill Empire has been expanding continuously without stopping for a moment.
Down.
"Hmm... the sound of this gun is a bit muffled... it's probably a 210 mm caliber naval gun, right? The first time I heard it... I'm really not sure." Burlison stuffed the last piece of hamburger into his mouth.
Said vaguely.
"There is news from the unmanned reconnaissance drone. The devil troops are counterattacking! Can you believe it? They are counterattacking!" An officer from the battalion headquarters ran over quickly and reported to Burlison who was sitting on the hatch of the jeep.
"Devil? Are you still fighting back? It's really lively today!" Glancing at the direction of the demon's position, Burrison balled up the hamburger wrapper in his hand and threw it at his feet: "Notify 1st Company 2nd Company
!Get ready to fight!"
"Let those guys know what real despair is!" Pulling out a cigarette and stuffing it into his mouth, Burrison took out his lighter, and the flickering flame illuminated his sharp wolf-like eyes.
The car's engine was started, and the surrounding battalion security troops who were on guard duty also made the sound of pulling bolts and checking weapons.
