Chapter 36

?It is a small plain. Although it is said that the road to Shu is difficult than climbing to the blue sky.-- . But in fact, the entire Sichuan Basin is not entirely mountainous, and even a fairly flat plain with hills.

It’s like the defense line from Jialing River to Qujiang, if you have Google topographic map, you will find it. This is a 20-kilometer-long defense line built on a small plain. It’s just that Shuanglong Lake and a series of hills in the middle, which saves a lot of trouble.

But this is undoubtedly a thin line of defense. All the soldiers on the entire line are just 10,000 infantry and artillery teams of the "Huaxia Zhenlu Army". There are also about 30,000 soldiers of the "local security forces" with 5,000 Marines as the backbone.

The only advantage is that when it is sunny here, the Mongols have no chance to play a key attack. The Shuanglong Lake, which is about 6 kilometers, can reduce the entire defense line by a little. On the 13-kilometer defense line, 43 fortresses were established based on the commanding heights and deployed major troops. This is of course the main defense line that must be kept safe. The next defense line is about 7 kilometers behind, and Qujiang and Jialing River are still based on the defense, while that defense line is only 5 kilometers long.

Some people may wonder, the Mongolian soldiers are stupid, why does such a huge force advance without dividing their troops? To be honest, if that were the case, Zhao Fubo would be so happy that he couldn't sleep. Just like in the beginning, they attacked with 5,000 vanguards. Any way they would be completely eliminated by the "Huaxia Zhenlu Power". Moreover, wars would be relatively better. A row of rockets could basically carry out work that was mainly about collecting corpses.

Or if the Mongols go down the river, the defenders will be happier. The wide river surface is completely under the control of artillery, so even the corpse is saved and buryed. When there is no long-range reconnaissance ability, any multiple assault may fall into a trap. Especially when facing strong force, maintaining concentration is the right way.

Moreover, the attacking Mongolian army did not know that Zhao Fubo and Juliana had led the attacking troops to leave here. No one would take it lightly against a fully organized "Huaxia Army". After all, these guys had long-range artillery fire and sharp cavalry. If one was not good for them to counterattack, the entire army would be dispersed. Therefore, they had to concentrate their troops and use heavy troops to break through the opponent's defense line and twist them together with the enemy. Only in this way can they deal with their ubiquitous heavy artillery.

"These guys, this time I've learned to be smart!"

Looking at the Mongolian soldiers' attack methods this time, Feilin felt that the situation on the entire battlefield was quietly getting worse. Because she had just heard that the Mongolians were trying to come from Shuanglong Lake. There was no military defense there, and some were just using the "Hell Messenger II-type field cannon". Muke and Charlene drew some troops and used large chariots to rush to form a thin line of defense.

Fortunately, the terrain on the south side of Shuanglong Lake is higher than the lakeside on the north side and is not suitable for cavalry operations. But Feilin knew that if there was a breakthrough, the best way to give up the defense line in front of her was to retreat immediately.

"Rockets are ready...!"

Feilin's eyes were not far from the telescope, she just raised her hand. At this moment, she could no longer think about anything else, because the Mongolian infantry in front were slowly advancing. And they opened the distance and held torches in their hands. It seemed that the big plan destroyed the traps formed by the short bamboo walls. Without the long pit behind the bamboo wall, it would have no effect.

But Feilin's hand was raised, but she never put it down. The infantry was too scattered and it was a bit unpaid to use rockets to fight. Although this simple bamboo rocket is very easy to manufacture, and there are a large number of people producing it at the base, this is not a reason for waste.

"Order revoke!"

As the order was revoked, the soldiers who fired the rocket looked at the princess at the head of Zhucheng City in depressedly, not knowing what she meant. As time went by, the cannons did not fire, the muskets and rifles did not make sounds, and everything was going on silently. There was no mine explosion, because when the attack was under the fog, a large number of war horses had already completed the mine formation 500 meters ahead.

400 meters...300 meters...200 meters, and even the Mongols on the opposite side have begun to try to move their own "Flying Swallow Iii type crossbow cannons" forward. But this is an unstoppable behavior, and there is no need for Feilin to order it. The "Hell Messenger II type field cannon" should immediately call out the shells. At this moment, the range of this cannon has reached 5,000 meters.

At such a close distance, it was almost a shot for the "Hell Messenger II-type field cannon". The movement of the Mongolian army's "Flying Swallow Iii-type crossbow cannon" stopped immediately under the explosion of the shells. Obviously, the opponent's cannon has more say because of its long range. This made it more urgent for the Mongolian army to break through the bamboo city in front of them, because without a breakthrough here, it could not be mixed with the soldiers of the "Chinese Army" and they could do nothing.

Even with the soldiers' concerns, the stragglers had approached about 150 meters. This was quite close. At least the muskets in the hands of the Mongolians could hit the bamboo wall, and they were doing this.

“Mush…”

“Tu tu tu tu…”

The sound of hitting the bamboo wall made many soldiers of the "local security forces" shrink their necks and they wanted to squat down. As a result, the veterans around them pulled their necks and lifted them up again.

"Well, you idiots, at such a long distance, can they shoot through our bamboo wall? Do you think the musket is a cannon?"

The veterans who were biting cigars in their mouths did not even wear armor. Their courage made the recruits admire them, and they also became stable. The veterans who were biting the cigars proudly pulled the lever and loaded the bullets.

"Prepare, I can guarantee that the princess will order the shooting right away."

Less than a few seconds after the veteran finished speaking, Feilin's sharp voice pierced the battlefield and reached every soldier's ears again.

"Infantry firepower, precise attack..."

This command is different from "fire attack" and "suppress shooting". It does not indicate rapid fire of fierce attacks, nor does it require fire attacks to be cast in rows. This is aiming one shot and one shot. Perhaps because the battle has just begun, no one is in a hurry.

When soldiers of the "Local Security Force" put the musket on the "V"-shaped gap in the bamboo wall with pointed tips in front, their hearts became calm. Please come to see if there is no advertisement for the first release--.
