1924: Yangang Offense and Defense (middle)

After leaning against the sandbag at the window, Gongsun Yue squinted his eyes and looked at the Westerners approaching here in the distance. The glass on the window had already been taken down, and the sandbags in sacks blocked the window halfway, and this area was generally arranged in this way.

As the general of Ruijin Camp, the 1,000 people he led will be the absolute main force in this Yangang attack. In this area, he led 500 people as the core, and the other 500 people were used by him as the reserve team. After the monk became the general of the Central War Zone, they also became one of the core troops of Yuejing City. The equipment is a reflection of the latest technology of the Ming Dynasty.

Ruijin Camp is the forefront of the military reform of the Ming army this time. The heavy armor has been completely abandoned by them. If there are still some things from the past left on their bodies, there will be only a round steel helmet. The soldiers each have a Ming style 1, and the latest combat uniform is full of various combat equipment. Of course, what Gongsun Yue likes the most is the inconspicuous but powerful melon grenade.

Yangang is very small, and small has small disadvantages, but small also has small advantages. Just like now, if soldiers of the Tiger Dynasty want to seize Yangang, the only way to attack is to advance along this central avenue. Otherwise, they would have to climb over these steel structure buildings. The shortest of these buildings is also four-story building, with a height of about 12 meters, which is no less than the city wall. These buildings have long been occupied by the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.

The only weaker defenses are the barricades built with sandbags, but behind those barricades, weapons such as mortars are arranged, and of course, countless crossbows and other objects for close-range killing.

Gongsun Yue had to admit that even if he had the latest weapon like Ming Type 1, in terms of close range killing, a weapon like a locust when fired is still indispensable. Unless one day, gunpowder weapons can also be densely shot like crossbows to form absolute suppression on the enemy, the crossbows will truly disappear.

As a new type of officer trained by the Ming Military Officers University, Gongsun Yue's understanding of gunpowder weapons is far beyond that of ordinary officers. He witnessed the great power of gunpowder weapons with his own eyes. The armor made by the Ming Dynasty should be regarded as the best quality Kaijia in the world. They can defend against the shooting of bows and arrows. Ordinary bows and arrows have no effect on them, and can also block the strike of the crossbow machine. Although the Kaijia is scarred, it can effectively protect the body in the Kaijia. However, if it is hit by the Ming Style 1, the ending will be more tragic. Head-on strike can basically penetrate the Kaijia. Even if it cannot be fatal in one blow, the huge impact force brought by the bullet will still cause the flesh and blood body after the Kaijia to suffer fatal damage.

This is true for the Ming Dynasty Style 1, not to mention those artillery artillery. Even if it is not attacked by shrapnel, the shock waves formed by the explosion will make people around them unavoidable.

He saw that the cattle and sheep wearing Kaijia were affected by the explosion, and Kaijia was not damaged much, but the internal organs of the cattle and sheep were not in shape. The result after the dissection was that their internal organs were basically shattered.

Under such a blow, the attacked people had no room to hide.

Unfortunately, weapons like the Ming Style 1 can only be produced in small quantities now. The more precise things are, the more difficult it is to produce them. Even if the madmen from the Ming Academy of Sciences are thinking about ways, the Ming Style 1 still cannot be produced in large quantities in the short term, and the production of one thousand pieces per month has reached the limit. This is just a drop in the bucket for the huge Ming army, so the main force of the Ming army is still mainly cold weapons.

But Gongsun Yue believed that mass production of these things was just a matter of time. When the Ming Dynasty solved this problem, there would be no problem in sweeping the mainland and even the world.

The rumbling footsteps made Gongsun Yue's thoughts pull back from his leisure thoughts. Facing the battle in front of him, he had no trouble in his heart, because in his opinion, this was not a battle of equal strength.

There are indeed many enemies, but they are facing a group of tigers. Even if a thousand sheep face a tiger, how much chance of winning can the sheep have?

Of course, from the perspective of the past, these Westerners on the other side were indeed very fierce and fierce and had extremely high tactical qualities.

Although there seemed to be no threat in the front, the Westerners still maintained a rigorous queue, with shield soldiers holding more than one person's tall shield walking in front of them, blocking them tightly, followed by swords, axes, and spearmen. Behind them were rows of longbow soldiers. Their longbows looked a little different from the longbows on this continent, but their functions were similar.

What amazes Gongsun Yue the most is the other party's body shape, I'm afraid that their height is over 1.8 meters tall. In the Ming Dynasty, this is definitely a taller height. And for the other party, this can only be regarded as a general standard.

This height made Gongsun Yue a little jealous because he was only about 1.65 meters. When he was a child, his family was poor and poor in nutrition, which caused him to not receive sufficient supplements when he needed to grow up. Later, the Ming Dynasty was established and life was better, but his body was fixed. It was unlikely to grow taller and there was still room for him to grow horizontally. However, as an officer, he had to do his best to maintain his body shape, otherwise, when he was in the officers' school, a cross-country training would be enough to make you want to die.

He raised the Ming 1 style in his hand and aimed at an officer holding a long sword under the military flag. The man was yelling loudly, and he couldn't hear it in a real way, but Gongsun Yue could see the changes in the enemy's formation. Obviously, the other party was going to make a tentative attack.

It turns out that he is well-trained. The other party did not rush up because of the silence ahead. Instead, he had to launch a wave of attacks to explore the way.

After a while, the other party's longbowers raised their longbows together. The next moment, countless long arrows flew towards the building like locusts.

Gongsun Yue burst out laughing and shrank his body behind the sandbag. A jingling sound came from his ears. Although the feather arrow was sharp, when he encountered a steel and concrete house, he left white marks on it, and at best he dug a small gap on it.

When his ears were quiet, Gongsun Yue poked his head out again. This time, he did not hesitate and directly aimed at the officer. After firmly snagging the other person's figure in the sight, he decisively hooked the trigger.

With a bang, the tall figure of the officer in the distance froze instantly. His hand holding the long sword was still not put down, but a bright red flower bloomed above the door. This shot hit the door.

This posture only lasted for half a second, and the man had already fallen down with a bang.

As Gongsun Yue fired the first shot, gunshots kept ringing like beans.

The bullet passed the shield player, passed the swordsman, the axe and spearmen, and directly attacked the archers. The Ming soldiers attacked from a high altitude basically killed the other party's lives one by one.

The human eyes can track the traces of sharp arrows that come out, but it is impossible to find the trajectory of bullet shooting. For Mattus's soldiers, this attack seems to be a magical thing that comes and goes without a trace. The team became a little panicked in an instant.

But what Gongsun Yue admired was that the team that lost the commander and panicked was not retreating, but shouting and running forward.

This is a team that is extremely good at attacking. Gongsun Yue came to the conclusion that in the opponent's mind, I'm afraid that the only way to use offense to deal with attack is to use offense.

In fact, Mattus is a person who fights like this. No matter how fierce the opponent is, he must act more fierce than the opponent. As long as he fights closely with the opponent, they can always defeat the opponent with a more fierce murderous intent than the opponent.

Mattus suffered great losses in every battle, but he also gained the most. After countless battles, no one in the West is willing to fight with such a madman. Fighting with him, losing and winning is a loss in the end.

In this battle, Mattus's soldiers maintained their usual style.

But their opponents this time are completely different.

When the soldiers holding shields rushed to the middle of the street, a violent explosion sounded again. It was a landmine laid by the Ming soldiers on the street in advance.

Rows of soldiers were instantly overturned into the air. When they fell to the ground, many people's bodies were broken and out of shape. The shield soldiers were almost wiped out, and the large group of charge soldiers behind them were immediately exposed to the crossbows behind the barricade.

The sound of linoline kept ringing, and dense crossbows swept along the streets like storms. The people who operated these crossbows were all retired soldiers from the Ming Dynasty. Unlike the soldiers of the Ruijin Camp, they were still old-fashioned equipment from the past. They would not use it without training in new weapons.

The three thousand recruiting troops and the one thousand under Gongsun Yue's command are the confidence of Yu Rongguang to guard Yangang this time. Gongsun Yue was also very relieved of the combat effectiveness of these people. People who have been trained by the Ming army have gone to the battlefield and there is no need to worry about anything.

It's all about death.

The first battle ended so quickly. The hundreds of soldiers from the advance team that rushed up were lying on the street without exception. Mattus, who was watching the battle in the distance, was all his hair and beards, and the hands of the telescope held up could not help but tremble. It was not a pity that the death of the hundreds of soldiers, but until now, his soldiers had been injured and killed before even their opponents could be touched.

The injured officer was climbing back with difficulty on the street, and Mattus's eyes followed the officer. But then the officer's body trembled for a moment, and his hand that stretched forward drooped down.

There was a blood hole on the officer's head.
