Chapter 216 Mortar! The secret weapon of the French army! However,

Boom! Boom!

Palala! Palalala!

In the south of Queretaro, many large black balls appeared above the position of the First Imperial Army. Of course, it was very ugly to see clearly with the naked eye, but these large black balls immediately exploded in the air, and the shattered shrapnel flew down to the position like rain!

"Look down!"

"Fake!"

The First Army's position can be said to be very good, with the traffic trenches one by one, and the traffic trenches are complicated. Due to time, you should know that there are 300 kilometers between Mexico City and Guanajuato, and the specific walking on the road is more than 300 kilometers, so the time is quite abundant.

However, such artillery bombardment at this time also greatly shocked the position!

Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!

No one was injured in the previous artillery bombardment. The artillery of this era could not do anything to the authenticity of the trench. At most, some people who were so unlucky would be found by shells. Let's put it this way, if someone was hit by shells in the trench, such a person would get a considerable amount of money in the imperial world.

Because the soldiers of the empire were gambling, who would be the unlucky person who was bombed by shells... By the way, the emperor Li Mengyang's ban on gambling... can only be said that the road is still long.

But now it is different, with casualties. Although I don’t know the specific situation, Ocassi has seen this situation in the telescope.

"The French guy really has some tricks!"

Okashi saw it very clearly. The shells just now were fired into the air and then exploded in the air, just like a goddess scattering flowers. The cannon was also strange, and the barrel was particularly thick!

Mortar!

This is a kind of gun barrel that is very short, but it is very huge, very thick, and looks very cute. Oh, it is a very powerful gun!

This is the weapon that Ocassi learned from the current war literature before. And the mortars on the French ships are quite advanced.

In fact, in the current year, there were not many wars in the mid-1860s. The most lively place in the world was the United States, and the civil war was a mess, and then Mexico. As for other places, it was relatively stable.

However, peace and stability are the mainstream of this era, but people have not stopped improving and researching weapons. This mortar is one of them. It should be said that this thing has appeared for a long time, that is, people have long been thinking about how to hang it. That is, hang it...

If you want to say it specifically, this kind of cannon still wants to drop the shells into the tunnel of the trench, but as long as the lead is shortened, it can produce the effect of the goddess scattering flowers. This kind of damage is also considerable. It can be said that human wisdom is very powerful.

In fact, in the current American Civil War, the Northern Federation has already used mortars. Maybe they have the help of the French. This may be, but the mortars used by the Northern Federation are almost in line with the Frenchman's mortars. They are both very big, very stupid, and cute, but...

Although it can cause certain damage to the soldiers in the trench, it is only a small amount and cannot completely solve the global defense problem of trenches on the battlefield!

"Tell me my order!" Seeing his subordinates suffering from casualties, Okashi felt a little distressed. It was not that he could not accept the casualties, but that in the battle with His Majesty the Emperor, the number of casualties of the Emperor was too small, and the lives of the imperial soldiers were very precious!

"Let the artillery be ready! Don't care about ammunition! I want the Frenchman to taste our awesomeness!"

“yes-sir!”

After Okashi gave the order, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously. Because the whole principle of the mortar is similar to the mortar invented by His Majesty the Emperor. Everyone is playing with slings, so who is more powerful?

Ocassi has great confidence in the great emperor!

...

"go ahead!"

Manion, the elderly French marshal, rode on the war horse, and went down from putting it on to the front of the formation, coughing all the way, but when he pulled out his command knife and stopped shouting loudly, his whole body was still so heroic!

Bang bang...bang bang...

It's still a Marseille song. I have to say that this song is very outstanding and really inspiring. The French army also accompanied this music, step by step, and launched a charge to the position of the American Empire of Queretaro. Of course, if this could be called a charge.

"Comrades..." In the position, many imperial soldiers who had just been baptized by the scattered flowers in the sky raised their heads.

It was really scary. The shells before could explode on their heads, but... it seemed that some unlucky guys were going to make a fortune, but they were the few lucky ones after all.

"Get closer and beat!"

In fact, it goes without saying that everyone understands it.

At this time, the French army was in a vast army. A white-haired old general rode a horse and kept waving his sword on his head. He was so heroic. What's even more powerful is that these French soldiers are really...

So many people!

Queretaro is a plain, so it can naturally spread the large army. This is why it is said that there is no danger here. According to the general battlefield theory, this is true. However, in terms of the combat methods of today's era, and in terms of the First Army and the soldiers who fought old wars, that is not necessarily the case.

"Preparation!" "Preparation!" "Preparation!"...

The order to prepare for shooting was spread far away. The French army wore blue military uniforms, white stripes, triangular hats, and the iconic white leggings. It was simply a beautiful landscape. The scenery was so long, there were so many people, and there were so many guns!

"Fire!" "Fire!"...

Bang bang bang...bang bang bang...

The dense sound of gunfire, you know, this is a unit of nearly 10,000 people. Although it is impossible to be completely lined up, it is also too spectacular!

That's right, the French army can be said to have fought hard, because three of the highest-level Mexican figures have all arrived, so the French army will also be dispatched in full swing. A total of more than 15,000 French soldiers came to Queretaro. And there are two thousand Mexican Empire soldiers!

This is the greatest ability of the Mexican French army and the empire. You must know that other cities have to stay behind. The French army that later supported and the French army in Mexico had a total of more than 30,000 people. In other words, it is really the limit now.

And at this limit, Marshal Manion used 10,000 people at one time!

Obviously, most of the 10,000 people were brought by him from France, otherwise he would have been difficult for him to direct, but this scene was really crazy.

"God bless!" To be honest, Ocassi was really excited about the situation he saw in the telescope. He was not because of the momentum of his opponent's guns, but because now is the time for him to achieve success!

"Patient, patient..."

Ocassi kept repeating this sentence in a low voice. He knew that there was no time to make any orders now, and whether the comrades on the front line could hold on. They could hold on until the French army had all entered the range. If the fire had been opened, the opponent would probably run away.

That’s right! Ocassi is now thinking about how to wipe out the main French army in the south of Queretaro at one time!

This idea is simply crazy. There are ten thousand people. Even if it is ten thousand pigs, it will take a long time to catch them.

But this is the case now, or in other words, the war of this era was like this, the American Civil War had the infamous Picket charge, and now, Manion is repeating the same mistake!

"go ahead!"

That round of shooting seemed to have no effect at all. The old marshal Manion was also furious at this time, so why bother? Go!

Bang bang...bang bang...

The music sounds are remembered again.

"Comrades! Hold-on!"

"Hold on!"

There are too many people on this opponent. Even the First Army soldiers who fought the old war couldn't help but feel a little trembling. You know, although the defense line is several levels, there are only more than 1,000 people on the imperial side. Can they withstand so many French attacks?

But no matter what, you must put the person closer to be beaten!

"..." Ocassi held the telescope and he couldn't help but shake his hand, calming himself a little. The French army's charge was too slow. If it were the imperial team, he would have come up long ago, but now it's almost done!

"Order the artillery to fire! Don't care about the shells!" Ocassi shouted!

"yes-sir!" The messenger hurried out to work.

Bang bang...bang bang...

The Marseille continues, but at this moment!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Suddenly, many small black dots appeared in the sky, and the parabolas of these black dots were very similar to the mortar shells that the mortars were just fired, except that they did not explode in the sky.

"This is..." Manion looked up at the sky at this time. What he wanted to say was, did the American Empire also have mortars?

You know, the current mortar cannons are high-tech weapons, and more importantly, the mortar cannon is very large and bulky. How could it be that there are so many shells?

There are at least dozens of small black dots, and the density of this shell is definitely much stronger than the ones that the French army had fired before.

Boom! Boom!

In an instant, the little black dot hit the ground, and then the French army's howl was heard!

Ahhhhh!

God! I want to go back!...

It was a sound one after another, and the French soldiers fell down, it was wrong! Some of them flew out!

"Open fire!"

"Fight!"

I heard of a bang of gunshots on the positions of the American Empire, and then there was a dazzling fire!

Buzz... buzz, buzz...

What sound is this?

The old marshal Manion couldn't believe his ears because the gunshots were too dense, as if a gunshot burst out from a fire could be handed over to a group!

The old marshal didn't know that it was the unique sound of the Gatling machine gun of the American Empire, and he wouldn't know it anymore. He only heard a horse neighing, and then the old marshal was thrown to the ground by his mount!

Before closing his eyes, he saw his subordinates in pieces, fragmented... (To be continued. (.))

ps: Thank you for your support! Thank you very much for the black car!
