On a branch line of the westbound railway, countless engineers are building several brand-new circular railways. These railways are specially constructed and look like strange cross-shaped forks.
Not far from where these engineers were busy, a giant artillery with a barrel of more than 21 meters was slowly raising its barrel. This train gun, the largest caliber of the Irish Army, opened the
The canvas revealed its true appearance.
This kind of giant cannon is very powerful, but it was born at the wrong time. The Army already has Scud ballistic missiles, and the K5 train gun here has just been put into the war.
Originally, when this kind of artillery was manufactured, the Army did not have many large-caliber howitzers. However, looking back now, I found that whether it was a 155 mm caliber howitzer group or a larger caliber 203 mm army heavy artillery, they had already
There are so many.
What is even more sad is that this 283 mm caliber heavy artillery has to compete with advanced weapons and equipment such as the B-52 bomber and the advanced Fritz-X bomb for a chance to appear.
Fortunately, the demand for frontline artillery reinforcements is getting higher and higher. This K5 train gun, which was produced but fell behind before it could be put into actual combat, was finally brought to the frontline artillery in the spirit of not wasting it.
On the battlefield.
Generally speaking, this huge train gun has two operating mechanisms at the front and rear of the body to carry all the weight. There are 6 axles at the front and rear of the body, each with a load of 18 tons. A train gun is composed of a series of carriages.
It consists of a locomotive, crew carriages, supply carriages, ammunition carriages, etc.
The total combat weight of this heavy artillery alone is a terrifying 218 tons. It can easily deliver artillery shells accurately to a place 40 kilometers away, causing terrible damage there.
What's even more frightening is that its firing speed is not much slower than the firing speed of a 203 mm caliber heavy artillery. It can fire 8 rounds of shells within an hour. Its performance is absolutely reassuringly excellent.
Today, right here, the 1st Group Army received a total of 10 K5 railway guns. Now 7 artillery pieces have built bombardment positions and raised their shocking barrels.
"Here are the artillery parameters...the coordinates provided by the ground forces." An officer handed the report to his comrades and said softly: "Fire one door at a time. There is no need to fire a salvo or the like."
There is indeed no need for this. The targets that need to be pulled out by this kind of heavy artillery are not gathered together, and in terms of the power of the artillery shells, this kind of artillery does not need to consider covering such a thing at all.
With just one cannonball, it can destroy quite strong fortifications and uproot all nearby associated targets.
This is the power of the train gun, and this is the terrifying power of this outdated and backward weapon. Of course, after a while, after Alan Hill develops its own precision-guided weapon, this bulky train gun weapon can be installed
He safely recovered it and retired to the Irish Military Museum.
"The first coordinates have been confirmed! The artillery shells have been loaded...and can be fired at any time." Inside the artillery headquarters, a noncommissioned officer put down the phone receiver in his hand and shouted to the officer who had just spoken.
"Let them fire!" the officer ordered softly, squinting his eyes.
"Boom!" A shot shook the earth, and the huge shell was pushed out of the muzzle by the pressure and flew towards the distant target.
Because the distance is too far, the target being attacked does not yet know that it is about to disappear from this world.
It was a barricade filled with puppet remains and reinforced with reinforced concrete. The puppet soldiers were stationed here and were also equipped with very rare Maxim machine guns.
These puppets are stationed here and have been threatening the safety of Cavuna Railway Station. When the location of this barricade was discovered, it was already the onset of the rainy season.
It is difficult for the B-17 bomber to take off for bombing in rainy days, so even the Fritz-X bomb cannot be used. The B-52 bomber carries the Super Hound to attack such a target with no guarantee of accuracy, so the final task falls on the K5 train.
On the cannon.
It can be regarded as making the best use of everything. After all, on rainy days, the Air Force's reinforcements are not so timely and effective. With the addition of these super-large-caliber heavy artillery, the Army's courage is also stronger.
The cannonball whizzed across the sky, drawing a graceful arc. At the highest point, it began to fall with its own inertia and weight. With the sound of breaking wind, the cannonball finally crashed into the sky at the end of its life.
That barricade target had long been exposed.
Inside the barricade, a magician from the Holy Demon Empire was still bragging proudly to his companions: "Don't worry, this barricade is very strong. With our magic defense barrier and 203mm caliber artillery, we can also take a little bit of it."
There is no way!”
His companions looked at a few soldiers of the Holy Demon Empire in armor and a large number of puppet soldiers, and thought that the place they were in was very safe.
As a result, their tragedy began the next second. A huge steel cannonball smashed into the magic defense barrier, then penetrated the cement slab above their heads, and penetrated a layer of thin steel plates that were deliberately reinforced.
, finally inserted in front of everyone.
The delay fuse started working in the next second. In everyone's eyes, the shell expanded and shattered. The explosive inside burned and exploded, eventually destroying everything in the barricade, including the ceiling of the barricade.
They flew into the air together.
Among the ruins on the opposite side, the grenadiers of Eiland Hill felt that the ground beneath them was shaking. They watched curiously as the barricade exploded, and the heavy reinforced concrete roof flew into the air and shattered.
crack.
Everything shook violently with the explosion, and then the huge sound made everyone's ears buzz. Everyone didn't know what happened for a while, and some even thought that what exploded in front of them was a small atomic bomb.
Of course, this is an exaggeration. A 250-kilogram artillery shell is not much more powerful than an aerial bomb of the same mass. However, the shock is real. After all, the barricade bunker exploded, and the scene was really spectacular.
.
Over there, the huge explosion had not yet fallen. Farther away, another building where countless puppets were stationed was razed to the ground in the explosion. Although the shell landed on the left side of the building, it still relied on the huge
The power destroyed this already weak building.
Immediately afterwards, the third explosion sounded, and huge black smoke rose into the sky. In the city of Kauniya, all the soldiers of the Holy Demon Empire trembled at the explosions.
"Don't they have no bomber support? Isn't it cloudy and raining?" A soldier hugged his weapon and asked his comrades around him almost collapsed. They finally survived until it rained, only to find Ailan
Hill's attacks are still sharp.
"Kaunia can't hold on any longer." A veteran murmured as he looked at the continuously exploding blocks in front of him. The rainwater hit his armor of the Holy Demon Empire, making a clanging sound.
…
The Grand Consul walked among the ruins with an ugly expression. He held the long sword on his waist, followed by the man in black from the puppet empire. In front of him was the once glorious Bellevue. Now, here
The glory has turned into smoke.
The once tall magic tower and those beautifully carved buildings are no longer there. There are collapsed rubble and gravel everywhere, and there are heart-stopping apocalyptic scenes everywhere.
Walking next to the Grand Archon was a general responsible for Baileyvi's rescue work. His face was gloomy. While guiding the Grand Archon forward, he introduced: "The power of this type of bomb called nuclear weapons is very terrifying.
Almost all the buildings were destroyed instantly."
"We are looking for corpses in the ruins, but with little success. There is nothing in the central area of the explosion... not only the corpses, but also the buildings can't be found." The general stepped over a piece of rubble, his voice filled with laughter.
With immense sadness.
No one in the Holy Demon Empire would not be sad to see Bellevue today. This place was once the pride of the Holy Demon Empire, but now it has been completely wiped off the map.
Although Eiland Hill has not used nuclear weapons again, the fear that hangs in everyone's hearts cannot be easily alleviated.
"The number of casualties has not been calculated yet?" the Grand Consul stopped next to a row of corpses that had deteriorated due to the weather and were waiting to be processed. He covered his nose with his hand and asked.
"We have no way to count. Some of the dead don't even have corpses, including the dozen or so high-level magicians sent by the puppet empire for reinforcements... but no corpses have been found," the general replied.
"And...the number of casualties is still increasing." After swallowing his saliva, the general continued.
The Grand Consul frowned and looked at the other party: "What do you mean?"
"It's been okay these days, but too many evil things happened before. Many soldiers involved in disaster relief fell ill. They seemed to be infected with the plague, with ulcers all over their bodies, then internal bleeding, and finally dying quickly..." Then
The famous general looked at the body lying at his feet and replied.
He raised his head, looked at the somewhat pale Grand Consul, and continued to explain: "However, this phenomenon has disappeared recently, and soldiers who enter Bellevue will not have any adverse physical symptoms.
"
After hearing what the other party said, the Grand Consul's expression recovered a little. However, he still turned around and walked out, giving instructions as he walked: "Do the tidying up as soon as possible, and if possible... the reconstruction work can also start as soon as possible.
"
"Your Majesty the Grand Consul... we don't have any supplies to rebuild here." The general followed quickly, glanced at the man in black following the Grand Consul, and said anxiously: "All the supplies have been sent to the front line.
