C1653 night gunfire

The sun was setting, and darkness covered the land. Countless bonfires and torches lit up along the north and south banks of the river, and the temperature had dropped below zero. The cold spring wind was so wet that it even made one's bones ache.

But the soldiers who felt the coldest were not the brave men in the trenches, but the six observation posts almost frozen to ice in the two huge observation baskets under the hot air balloons forty meters above their heads.

Behind them was a furnace that burned coal, but no one had any intention of roasting it. Right now, this was their mission's time, and the start of the night was their busiest time.

"Northwest … Area A of the Northwest... Twenty-five bonfires, in the middle of the density of the soldiers … "Achoo!"

"Cold..." So cold! Area A 3... Eighteen bonfires in area A 3 … "Low density of soldiers..."

"My Lord!" What the hell is this weather? Can't even three layers of furs block the cold wind? He had taken the lives of his loved ones … "Look, there's a large troop of cavalry in area B 3 moving towards area C 2 …"

The air force was the most enviable force in the Chinese Army, not only because of their high treatment, but also because of the fact that these people could fly in the sky, and did not have to participate in the most dirty and tiring jobs.

The Air Force could wear fur coats, eat high-calorie food, and drink alcohol at any time … One could say that there were countless privileges, but there was nothing in the army that didn't feel envious.

However, there was something wrong with the Air Force. The threshold was too high, mathematics required trigonometric functions, calculus needed to be dabbled in, and drawing scores needed to be above A grade and simple formulas needed to reach the standard of oral calculation.

Besides being fluent in Chinese, they also had to be proficient in French and German, which made it even more difficult. Since the hot air balloons were flying in the air, it was very possible for them to be in danger.

Many of the young men from the countryside were able to read for three thousand, which was enough for the parents of their hometown to brag about for the rest of their lives. Even some of their countrymen would call them Elementary Scholars.

If he wanted to understand higher mathematics at this level and add on a few foreign languages, then that would be taking the lives of his family and relatives.

The air force was not good, they needed to learn a lot of things and their physical qualities were also good. However, these things were not the most difficult ones. To these soldiers, the cold was their greatest enemy.

War would not always be a beautiful spring day, and a sunny summer day was not unusual for soldiers to fight in the autumn and winter seasons. Furthermore, in this kind of weather, a height of thirty to forty meters above the ground was completely like an icehouse.

It was simply too cold. Every hot air balloon had three observation posts, their eyebrows and beards were covered in frost, the little sheepskin's gloves were so cold they crackle, it was as cold as a bear's bones.

"Persist, persevere a bit more …" When it's time for us to show off our prowess, these bastards still want to sneak attack us in the middle of the night? "There's no chance, we'll have to fight back later …"

Frozen soldiers shivering from head to toe dropped strings of eastern light signals in the basket. Among them, the tinted glass enriched the types of lanterns spoken.

Very quickly, the ground forces knew all the manpower deployments on the other side. The data was gathered into the general staff by Xiao Letian's side, and the data was transferred directly to the hidden artillery positions in Harbalupo Ka City.

The numbers increased bit by bit, and Dragon Lord's lips curved into a smile. On the Military Maps in front of him, the huge latitude and longitude line divided the enemy's garrison into small squares.

"A one, medium density …" A Two, Low Density... A three, suspected officer camp... Hahaha, these are truly a pair of divine eyes in the dark night! After the war, the air force should remember the first prize! "

Albuterol... Gengxin... Sisi... The Sky Dry Cross divided the map into ten areas, and each area was further divided into nine palaces, that is, A 1 to A 9.

The purpose of this subdivision was to command the artillery to blindly fire. Before the enemy's future, the artillery had already marked the battlefield in advance, and had used scattered firepower to make changes to the battlefield.

Everything was ready. When the time came, they would wait for the commander's strategic bombing order. When that happened, the artillery would no longer need to observe the terrain and could just directly bombard them one by one according to the coordinates of the map.

As for the hot air balloon in the sky as an observation post, it was still able to report the enemy's main force movements at any time. This way, the cannonball would be equivalent to opening up a pair of eyes.

The night was getting darker, and the pocket watches on the command table were ticking incessantly. The staff officers who were busy with their work had already marked out 80% of the area. At the same time, the artillery positions had already been marked down.

"Prime Minister!" Prime Minister … Wake up, it's almost eight in ten minutes! Should we act according to the original plan? " One of the staff officers whispered in Xiao Letian's ear.

He didn't think that Xiao Letian, who was resting inside the black fur coat with his eyes closed, would not even open them, he only shook his head and said softly, "Since you're already prepared, what need do you have for me? Let the General Xiang give the order … Do you expect me to move your shells? "

"Don't disturb me …" Unless it's the news of victory! " With that, Xiao Letian bent his body and hid himself in the chair with his feet on the other side, and then fell asleep.

Dragon Lord looked at the prime minister gratefully. He knew that this was the last large-scale battle in the Far East, and the prime minister had given him the authority to rule the area.

"According to the original plan, the bombardment begins at 8 o'clock!" Forty-five minutes after the fire, the reserve team crossed the river to launch a counterattack! Alright, let's do it like this. We have already made our preparations, so there won't be any more changes! "

"Let us obtain victory!"

Eight o'clock in the night, just half an hour before the night assault schedule that Fajeev had prepared, the brave volunteers took the lead to launch a counterattack.

Sou sou sou … Three flames of attack exploded in the sky, following that, the one hundred and twenty cannons hidden in the Southern Bank city started to rage.

Boom! Boom! Boom! The light from the explosion flashed behind the wall, and the sky was filled with the trajectory of artillery shells.

These cannons were brought down by Xiao Letian from the Navy's battleship, and used countless climbing plows to travel along the Amur River's ice surface to be delivered to the battlefield. Thanks to the naval transportation and the ability to borrow the frozen river, it would take at least a month for these cannons to reach the surface by land.

The cannon shot out, causing Fajeev to explode, he jumped up three times, and shouted, "Oh my god! These Chinese people actually have artillery? They only used it now? "Despicable, shameless …"
