787 Tower Defense

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Artillery fire shook the sky and smoke filled the air.  In Ma Qianshan's heart, there was peace.

    He is doing a math problem.

    This is a question about artillery firepower, output density, and coverage area - using relatively primitive bronze artillery and the most elementary explosive bombs, it is required to fight an artillery battle at the level of World War I. Please solve it?  Well, fortunately the enemies are also relatively primitive.

    For Ma Qianshan, he began to solve this problem a long time ago - at that time, they had just cast the first bronze cannon, trained the first company of troops, and added two more guns cut with oxygen bottles.  With the successful mortar, he dared to set out boldly to seize the capital of Qiongzhou and occupy the territory. He relied on his confidence in firepower!

    Since then, as the strength of the Qiong Navy has grown, more artillery has been cast. Of course, compared to their enemies, the Qiong Navy has always been at a disadvantage in terms of troop numbers, but in terms of firepower, they will always have the absolute upper hand!

    And the problems Ma Qianshan faced were constantly changing: the conditions provided by our side were changing, and the results required to be output were also changing Until this time: our side concentrated all the artillery power of the land forces, and  The target that requires him to output firepower is also the largest and strongest enemy in the troubled times of the late Ming Dynasty.

    The conditions are finally set, and the next step is nothing more than solving problems and fighting a real-life tower defense battle.

    Ma Qianshan and his staff team have done the deduction on paper countless times, and they are sure to win.  That's why Pang Yu's plan was supported. In other words, Pang Yu's combat plan itself was built based on his deduction results.

    ——Gather troops in one place, lure the enemy to attack, and consume the enemy's main strength in defensive battles.  The most important point is to be able to withstand it.  If the firepower is insufficient and the enemy is allowed to rush into the array and kill them, then this plan will become a suicidal act.

    Ma Qianshan made a judgment and said he could win, and Pang Yu made a plan accordingly.  Now we have finally reached the stage of final practice.  Whether all the calculations made beforehand and the repeated deductions on paper can become reality depends on this incident.

    ???????????????

    Although he has a heavy responsibility, Ma Qianshan is quite relaxed at this time, at least on the surface - he just stands on a high slope, using his binoculars to scan the battlefield ahead from time to time, and is not concerned about the sparse and unorganized artillery team under his command, and even the accuracy.  I don't care about the high shooting either.  Only occasional scattered instructions are issued

    "Inform the fifth to eighth artillery groups and ask them to extend their firing range forward by five hundred meters."

    "The 7th, 11th, 16th and 21st artillery groups fire too fast. Let them slow down. They are all fighting Mongolian cannon fodder troops now. There is no need to waste ammunition. Also pay attention to maintaining your physical strength. We will see you later.  Very busy.”

    Behind him, a whole platoon of orderlies was standing on standby. From time to time, someone would quickly run to deliver the order after receiving it, but overall, the pace was still very slow.  Regardless of the speed at which the opponent's army moves forward or the rate at which the artillery fires, they all exhibit a slow pace unique to medieval warfare.

    Of course, the feelings of both sides of the war must be very different: except for the artillery team on Qiong Haijun's side, who was a little tired, the others were just watching the artillery shells hit the enemy's head with their hands in their sleeves.

    On the other side, the Houjin and Mongolian coalition forces were moving forward despite the bombardment. I don't know when a grenade would fall next to them, knocking over dozens of people around them with a bang. If they died on the spot,  It's all over.  I am afraid that I will not be able to die and will not survive. The suffering is not something that a mortal can bear.

    If this was a game, and the enemy army had a "morale bar" on its head, it would definitely show a crazy decline at this moment.  In fact, even without intuitive data, the spectators standing on the high slope can feel that the opponent's actions are hesitating and delaying, and are getting more and more delayed. According to this trend, they will not be able to get close to the defensive position here.

    The enemy on the other side must have noticed it, but they did not take any measures to improve it. They just released more infantry phalanxes and strengthened their supervision and inspections.  Some patrol officers on horseback ran back and forth between the phalanxes, killing all the soldiers who broke away from the formation, ran around in fear, or stopped moving forward.

    You can see it - most of the troops being sent out are cannon fodder troops, used to test the Qiong Navy's firepower.

    Perhaps because of the rush of the army, the local people originally coerced by the Later Jin Army moved too slowly and were unable to keep up with the large army. Therefore, a considerable number of these "cannon fodder" still belonged to the Hou Jin and Mongolian coalition forces, but they were just  The worst among them were just old and weak auxiliary soldiers, and the Communist Party did not feel much distress about their casualties.

    Of course, *** doesn’t feel bad, and Ma Qianshan certainly doesn’t feel bad either. No matter you are elite or old or weak, you are still just a pile of moving pieces of meat in front of the artillery group.

    for exampleAt this moment, Ma Qianshan noticed that a certain infantry phalanx in front was lucky and did not encounter too many artillery fires. Moreover, the commanding personnel seemed to be quite capable. The queues were kept relatively orderly and the speed of action was quite fast.  It is possible to rush to the front of the formation in one piece - if they can maintain this "good luck" in the future.

    "It's a pity that the bombardment is not random, and actually has nothing to do with luck. After a little calculation, Ma Qianshan wrote a string of data in the record book, tore off the paper, and called a messenger:

    "Go and convey it to the sixth to fifteenth artillery groups, and ask them to fire five rapid fire rounds each according to these elements."

    The orderly soldier quickly ran away. Soon after, on Qiong Haijun's artillery position, the originally unhurried sound of artillery suddenly accelerated. On a certain position in the center, there was a continuous roar like firecrackers, accompanied by a large number of white bullets.  cigarette.

    In contrast, the infantry team that was envied by many people before was bombarded by more than forty artillery shells in just a minute or two. The entire area was like a volcanic eruption, and was instantly annihilated.  Amid smoke and explosions.

    When the smoke dissipated slightly, all the spectators - including the military officials on the Qiong Navy side, as well as Baylor and Taiji on the Houjin side, all took a deep breath.

    It was neatly neat just now, so that a large army, so many people, disappeared at once!

    It’s not that everyone in the military formation is gone. No matter dead or alive, the human torsos are still there.  But from their original upright position, they were now lying on the ground in a mess, their clothes and armor were all broken and blackened, and their bodies were still covered with dirt and turf It could be said that they were integrated with the earth.  Looking at it from a distance, don't they all disappear?

    And on the ground that has been bombed, you can still see smoking craters.  Near the crater and a little further away, there were still people struggling, calling for help, squirming, or crawling.  But the closer you get, the "cleaner" it becomes. There may still be some wreckage, flesh and blood outside the crater. When you get to the place closest to the explosion point, there is nothing but dirt and gravel.

    The entire phalanx has completely fallen apart, and even the nearby supervisor, the ranger patrol sentry responsible for beheading people, dare not approach anymore.  And the sudden appearance of so many craters, dead people, and howling wounded on the ground also blocked the passage of this square - only this square formation was broken up, but the troops behind this square formation  How to do it?  Keep moving forward and step over the wounded and dead?  Or go around?  Or simply stop moving forward?

    For those cannon fodder troops with insufficient organization and fighting desire, the choice is clear - not only the rows of people directly blocked from the front stopped advancing, but even the steps of several neighboring troops nearby also slowed down.  Slowed down.

    So the originally uneven offensive suddenly became more chaotic.

    ???????????????

    Afterwards, the Jin Army responded quickly - as several messengers ran out from the central position, the supervisory teams quickly received new instructions.  The ferocious spirit rushed forward, first beheading a few unlucky ones who were not directly blocked but were cowering away, and then kicked and beat them, forcing the others to continue moving forward.

    As for the poor group of phalanx soldiers who were directly dispersed by the explosion, they were forced to crawl to the side with swords and axes, or to integrate into nearby teams.  And if it's impossible - whether it's because he's injured and can't move, or he's too stunned to react, he'll simply chop him to death with a single blow, push them into the crater together with the bodies that were killed before, and spread them out as quickly as possible.  Leveled the road.

    This response is really not bad. As far as a feudal army is concerned, it can be said to be perfect.  It's a pity that the Qiong Haijun they faced was too shameless - seeing that the effect was actually good, Ma Qianshan immediately wrote a few more groups of shooting Zhu Yuan and asked the order soldiers to deliver them.

    So the artillery group of the Qiong Navy here was banging and banging continuously. This time, the shooting targets were scattered, but they were wider. The several large square formations that the Jin Army rushed to the front were all hit by concentrated attacks.  A head-on attack - the Qiongzhen artillery finally showed its true skills.

    If we could rely on the steel knives and brutality of the supervising team to suppress the situation before, forcing the cannon fodder troops to move forward with the shells, now they are hit by the overwhelming grenades, and even the king of Yaksha has no effect.

    Before the smoke completely dissipated, you could see that the smoke was like an ant nest filled with water. Countless people were bald and barefoot, crying and shouting and fleeing in all directions.  Swords, guns, shields, armor and helmets were all scattered on the floor. No matter how much the war patrol sentry slashed with swords or axes, they could not restore order to the defeated army.

    ——The so-called "Kun bandits in the south and Tartars in the north" were two independent armed forces that used to be the four major bandits of the Ming Dynasty, but today they are fighting in the heart of the Ming Dynasty, near the capital.  Before the two sides actually engaged in battle, the Jinmeng coalition's forward troops, numbering nearly 10,000, were bombarded by the short-haired army's artillery.The whole meeting was over.

    If it weren’t for the sufficient strength of the Jinmeng Allied Forces, the rear brigade still maintained its composure and was not overwhelmed by the defeated army.  And ***'s own "power of command" is also high enough, and he will not be like Fu Jian, who will be attacked by the defeated soldiers. The outcome of this battle may be determined by this.
