Novel Star Chapter 377 Battle of the Holy Land (9)
Chapter 377 Battle of the Holy Land (9)
Looking at the busy robots near the artillery, they stuffed shells weighing more than 20 kilograms into the barrel, and then pushed the propellant into the barrel.
Then close the breech bolt, pull the matchlock, and then the artillery fires the shells weighing more than 20 kilograms.
The recoil of the cannon's firing violently trembled, and a large cloud of smoke and dust was raised around the cannon.
After completing the firing of a shell, another robot came with another shell and repeated the previous action.
This is the heavy artillery unit of the Ten Thousand Realms Pirates.
For this bombardment, the Wanjie Pirates mobilized two hundred 120mm heavy howitzers.
And forty [-]mm howitzers with a larger caliber bombarded the defense lines of the world government.
In addition to heavy artillery, the Wanjie Pirates also mobilized more than 300 "powerful" 75mm Italian guns.
Italian Cannon comes from a famous anti-Japanese TV series that An Yi once watched.
But in fact, the Italian guns inside are not Italian-made artillery.
The Italian gun inside is actually a French-made M1897 75mm field gun.
This artillery was once an extremely important artillery piece for the French army.
Its weight is only 160 kilograms. For the Pirates of Ten Thousand Realms, even if there is no transportation equipment, only a few robots can pull and carry it.
Moreover, the range has reached 75 kilometers, and the high-explosive shells of the [-]mm artillery can weigh up to [-] kilograms, which is quite powerful.
More importantly, the rate of fire of this kind of artillery can be called abnormal. If the shelling is carried out regardless of sight and sight, skilled artillery crew members can fire 1 shells within [-] minute.
This speed is a little slower than the firing frequency of soldiers using bolt-action rifles.
It's just that the two sides, one fired a bullet of a few millimeters, and the other fired a 75mm shell, and the power was very different.
The Myriad World Pirates, which use robots as their battery, can guarantee a rate of fire of [-] rounds per minute for each Italian cannon.
This kind of shooting speed is extremely frightening, especially, the Ten Thousand Realms Pirates have concentrated more than 300 of this type of artillery.
This means that 1 rounds of 75mm shells can be fired in one minute.
"Dong dong dong..."
The dense barrage fired by more than 300 75mm artillery pieces turned the World Government's defense line into a sea of flames.
……
Sipal is a soldier from the South China Sea. A month ago, the king of their country said that they would send troops to support the world government to resist the evil, cruel, and ten thousand world pirates who tried to destroy the world.
At the time he thought they were fighting for justice.
So soon, they boarded the ship to the Red Earth Continent.
Along the way, he saw Cape Twins, where the water flowed to high places, and sea kings, who could swallow their entire ship in one mouthful.
I saw that the sky was still clear one second, the next second it would be raining, and the next second it could turn into unpredictable weather with heavy snow.
After more than 20 days of sailing, he came to the holy place of the world, the residence of the Tianlong people, Mariejoya.
The first time he saw Mary Joya, he was fascinated by the beautiful scenery here. Unfortunately, he didn't have the opportunity to enter the interior of Mary Joya to visit.
They could only take a look at Mary Joya from a distance, and then they were asked to march quickly to resist the first line of the Ten Thousand Realms Pirates.
However, he secretly swore in his heart that he must go to the inside of Marie Gioia to take a look, so that he can brag to Alina in the future, saying that he is also someone who has seen Marie Gioia.
You know, in their country, only the king and a few members of the royal family have ever visited Marie Gioia.
At that time, he will definitely become the most beautiful boy in the village, become the village head, marry An Lina, live in a big house, and reach the pinnacle of life.
And in order to fulfill his wish to go to Marie Gia, he has decided that he must make great achievements in the war with the Pirates of Ten Thousand Worlds, so as to get the opportunity to visit Marie Gioia.
Sipal is very confident in himself, because he has an innate ability to sense every move of everyone within tens of meters around him and react in advance.
But when Sipal came to the front line, he found that everything was different from what he thought.
After they arrived at the front line, the first thing they did was not to fight the Ten Thousand Realms Pirates, but were distributed a shovel and asked them to dig the soil with those who arrived here earlier.
Although he didn't understand why the first thing they did when they came was to dig the soil, but as a soldier, Sipal did it honestly.
And through talking to a soldier who arrived here earlier than him, Sipal finally knew why they dug here.
It turned out that the army of the Pirates of the Thousand Realms had not arrived here yet. They dug the soil to build a line of defense to resist the Pirates of the Ten Thousand Realms.
This made Sipal not very understanding. The information he got along the way was that the World Government had repeatedly defeated the Pirates of the Ten Thousand Worlds, but why are they defending now?
But soon, Sipal's doubts were overwhelmed by the heavy work of digging.
Because the soil of the Red Earth Continent is too hard, digging the soil is not an easy task.
Digging in the Red Earth Continent requires more than ten times more effort than in other places.
And just as he was digging diligently, a piercing siren sounded.
He found that most of the people skillfully jumped into the pits dug long ago, and when Sipal was at a loss, the person who had chatted with him before dragged him into a pit.
Then he felt the earth-shattering explosion.
After the explosion, when he looked up again, he found that most of the trenches that had taken them a long time to dig had been destroyed, and many of the comrades who came with him had become corpses.
He later learned that the previous explosion was caused by the bomber, a weapon of the Pirates of Ten Thousand Worlds.
This kind of weapon, called a bomber, appears on their heads every day and drops bombs on them.
If you don't want to die, then when the alarm sounds, lie down in the pit as soon as possible, which can reduce the probability of death.
After that, Sipar quickly adapted to this situation, because those who could not adapt had basically died.
In this way, he dug the soil for several days, and finally got the news of the arrival of the Pirates from the Ten Thousand Realms.
Just when Sipal was planning to kill the Quartet, he was told that the entire army was not allowed to leave the line of defense and waited for the Wanjie Pirates to attack.
But today, just as he was queuing up for lunch, he heard bursts of whistling sounds.
Then there were dense explosions. If he hadn't reacted quickly enough, he would have become a mutilated corpse like the others who lined up with him.
Originally, he thought that this attack would last only a few minutes at most as before, but it has been more than half an hour since the explosion started.
The explosions have never stopped. According to his estimation, the number of explosions has exceeded the number of defenders in their line of defense.
And now he no longer thinks that he is fighting for justice, because there is a severed hand in front of him, and he knows the owner of the severed hand, who is the one who saved his life on the first day he came.
He recognized the tattooed text on the severed hand, with his daughter's name on it, and he showed it to himself.
Although he wanted to get up and run away, his reason told him.
Lie on the stomach, lie on the stomach, only on the stomach can he survive.
Because he has seen too many people who were blown to pieces not long after getting up.
