Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Boom, boom, boom!" The rumbling sounds of cannons rumbled up from the ground in large pieces, and the ground shook like a pendulum, as if there were countless roaring demons trying to push through the earth's crust and crawl out.

    The Americans attacked first.

    The Americans who learned well first set up an all-powerful artillery array.

    Although most of the tens of thousands of artillery deployed by the Americans in Canada and Alaska have been destroyed by China's air strikes and heavy artillery counterattacks, the Americans have seen the power of the artillery.

    The fierce heavy artillery defense line can block the impact of Chinese super-heavy tanks, and the dense air defense artillery network can intercept the raging Chinese jet fighters. They are already the cheapest means in the hands of the Americans.

    Compared with the new weapons that are being developed and produced and have various problems, the large American industry is more suitable for the artillery group with mature technology, and the quality of American soldiers also allows them to quickly become qualified artillerymen, even better than holding a gun.  Submachine guns do a better job of charging forward.

    At this time, American soldiers are least willing to be in front with rifles.  The rain of bullets from Chinese machine guns and automatic rifles was enough to wipe out the vitality of all living organisms that could breathe. The tracks of the Chinese tanks that then attacked directly crushed the fallen corpses into pieces, stirred them into the soil and returned to the earth.  Naturally, the families of those soldiers received only a twisted dog tag.

    Although artillerymen are equally prone to being knocked off their feet by artillery shells and bombs from China's counterattack, they are farther away from the most brutal front line and feel safer.  At least you can escape faster when the situation is bad, so that you won't be attacked by the Chinese tanks and use cold steel to smash open another door to hell for you.

    At the request of the army, the number of artillery pieces in the U.S. Army increased sharply.  Especially on the border with China, with the help of those reinforced concrete pure earth fortresses and fortifications, artillery that does not require large-scale movement is more effective than tanks, and the cost is cheaper.

    Expenses are an obstacle that Americans can never get around.

    Although Americans in previous lives were extravagant and extravagant.  The world is envious, but in this time and space, running around the world, the fruits of victory have been picked up by China. Even the arms profits from European allies have been divided in half by Meng Xiang, and the various commodities that affect the world have been divided into half.  Repeatedly defeated by "".

    ¡°If it weren¡¯t for these reasons that made the capital tycoons so angry that they wanted to completely defeat China, the U.S. finances affected by the war and economic crisis would not be able to support continuous global wars.

    However, repeated investments have not received adequate returns, which has also diminished the enthusiasm of those predators.  Coupled with the stimulation of the increasingly emboldened arms giants' pockets, U.S. military spending has been subject to increasingly strict scrutiny and difficulties from Congress and various supervisory agencies.

    With careful budgeting, cheap artillery has become the new favorite of the US Army.

    Although for countries like China with an extremely weak industrial base in the past, artillery, the king of war, was expensive and extremely difficult to maintain, but for countries that already have a certain industrial base.  Artillery, which has been popular in the Western world for hundreds of years, is the most cost-effective and powerful weapon.

    The popularity of Soviet artillery doctrine is based on the cheap cost and cheap manufacturing conditions of artillery and shells.

    The huge industrial system of the United States can expand more artillery production lines at any time.

    Relying on the technology and talents obtained from allies such as Britain and France, coupled with the accumulation of technology by the Americans themselves, the level of American artillery has reached a higher level. Large-scale industrial production has also led to a surge in American artillery production, especially when there is no way.  After selling a large amount of weapons to their allies, the pressure on the Americans to produce huge quantities of weapons has fallen on the country.

    This has translated into the Americans¡¯ 100,000-size artillery barrier on the border at this time.  Coupled with the Americans' monster production of artillery shells, they can completely discharge a wall of firepower that completely seals the border.

    Relying on the Americans' self-produced artillery shell production, the Americans can smash out tens of thousands of tons of artillery shells without stopping to push this wall of metallic luster flames toward the Chinese army little by little.

    But it didn¡¯t take long.  This wall of fire was poked with countless gaps by China's counterattack.

    Although China¡¯s more than 3,000 fighter planes were strangled with more than 6,000 American fighter planes early on and did not bother to destroy the artillery group on the ground, China¡¯s heavy artillery group multiplied more and more in the peaceful days before.

    The Americans deployed not only artillery on the border, but also densely packed forts and fortresses.

    A large amount of steel and cement are piled up along the northern border of the United States.  It solidified into blockades comparable to the Maginot Line.

    Although the Maginot Line is regarded as a joke by later generations, its solidity cannot be buried.  If the German army really breaks through from here.  I hit my head so badly that it didn't even bleed.It will definitely be conquered.

    The Americans had no choice but to choose defense. Their defense system, which was cost-effective, blocked all loopholes in attempts to circumvent it. In addition to attacking from the sea, if they want to attack from the northern land, they must first solve the steel and cement obstacles.  Line of defense.

    Meng Xiangming knew that those bulky large-caliber heavy artillery would gradually become obsolete, but in order to crack the hard turtle shell of the Americans, he still mobilized and produced more than a thousand large-caliber heavy artillery without hesitation and gathered them on the northern border of the United States.

    Those with a caliber lower than 203 mm are embarrassed to be included in the ranks of large-caliber heavy artillery.  Even after the base was upgraded, with the help of the two sub-base intelligences, 12 vanguard cannons were erected on the forward position.

    It can be said that China has gathered together the most luxurious heavy artillery feast ever seen on this planet, but in terms of the quantity and quality of heavy artillery, it is even better than the Americans opposite.  If it weren't for the nearby sub-base, just moving these huge steel monsters on land would be enough to collapse the logistics personnel.

    This duel between spear and shield is no longer a simple battle or battle.

    Meng Xiang wanted to use the power of heavy artillery to not only knock on the door of the Americans, but also to shatter the Americans' confidence in resistance.

    Such a lineup undoubtedly proves that China can use these heavy artillery to launch a victory lane paved with ruins.  Which city in the United States can withstand the ravages of thousands of heavy artillery?

    This kind of heart-wrenching battle is far more effective than the street battles that will continue in cities one after another, and it is far more effective than facing American civilians armed with weapons to defend their homes.

    So soon after the American artillery fired, the Chinese heavy artillery group immediately fired back.

    Even though the base is still unable to equip the Chinese army with anti-artillery radar due to some technical limitations, the satellites at the sub-base have already clearly scanned the American artillery positions on the border.  In particular, many artillery positions rely on those fortresses and fortresses, which are simply immovable targets.

    When the Chinese heavy artillery bombarded the past, the only thing to worry about was those hard shells made of reinforced concrete and pure earth.

    The Americans are willing to spend a lot of money, often using reinforced concrete shells that are four to five meters or even thicker, which cannot be penetrated by ordinary artillery. This is one of the main reasons why Meng Xiang directly selected a heavy artillery group with a caliber of 203 mm or more to deal with it.  .

    Once these American turtle shells are smashed, nothing can stop the Chinese army from sweeping across American soil.

    "Boom!" With loud noises, the heavy shells of the Chinese heavy artillery hit the American artillery positions, throwing up concrete blocks and various twisted metals all over the sky.

    According to the guidance of satellites and reconnaissance aircraft, the first targets of counterattack are the weakly defended American heavy artillery and cannon groups.

    The American artillery group is to deal with Chinese tanks and army raids. There are no fortress groups on the Chinese positions for the American heavy artillery to show its power. Considering the transportation and cost issues, the American 105mm and 155mm  It has the most artillery, and some 175mm and 203mm heavy artillery to deal with the Chinese Mammoth tanks.  Larger caliber artillery is much less common.

    The artillery first attacked those targets that were the most threatening to the artillery. The Chinese who came from the expedition did not have any extra protection at all. They could only rely on the range advantage of large-caliber heavy artillery to reduce the threat, so they first eliminated those heavy artillery that had a long range.  A group of threatening American heavy artillery of over 155 mm.

    It¡¯s just that some American heavy artillery has been covered with thick turtle shells and huddled in those fortresses and fortresses. Only the vanguard cannon and a few large-caliber heavy artillery can destroy them.  Without a counterattack target, the primary attack target could only be changed to the 155mm artillery groups or those dense 105mm field artillery groups that were a huge threat to the Chinese tank troops and infantry, which immediately opened a large number of gaps in the American fire wall.

    "Discovered the coordinates of the new Chinese Pioneer Cannon!" While the Americans were surprised by the fierce firepower of the Chinese Heavy Artillery, they also ranked the threat of the Pioneer Cannon at the forefront.

    No matter how thick they are, some fortresses and bastions are easily destroyed by the powerful vanguard cannons. The Americans listed the five vanguard cannons that were brightly lit as the first targets.

    After the failure of the 420mm TOM gun, with the development of the Navy's 20-inch naval gun, the American 20-inch train gun also entered service.  With the help of the convenient railway system of the United States, seven train guns named Super Tom will use their 508 mm caliber barrels to challenge the five 500 mm level four pioneer cannons unveiled by China.

    But as soon as the war began, Americans who thought they had a chance of victory were confused.

    Not only were all 12 of China's vanguard cannons displayed at once, but six of them had a caliber of 600 mm.

    "These weapons created by the devil must be destroyed at all costs! TheyIt will ruin everything for us!  "The American commanders whose confidence was once again shaken couldn't help shouting at the top of their lungs.
