Iron Dynasty
Chapter 1173 Persecution
Hadrian's Wall.
This is the Great Wall built by the ancient Roman Emperor Hadrian in order to resist foreign invasions. After years, this Great Wall, which is now only a mound of mounds, has become the boundary that divides Scotland and England.
Another charge! The Scots will not be able to resist for long..
In the ditch on the south side of Hadrian's Wall, Buterin ordered another charge.
After Scotland declared independence, he marched north, and an army of 300,000 English met Scottish resistance at Hadrian's Wall.
These days, in order to defeat each other, both sides are fighting fiercely. However, compared with the Scottish militia, many English soldiers are veterans on the battlefield. Coupled with the advantage of numbers, Buterin has mastered the war in just two months. initiative.
Facing the ever-decreasing Scottish army, he continued to charge, hoping to break through this line of defense and enter Scotland within three days.
It's just that his expectations were quickly dashed. When the army green painted steel monster swooped down from the Scottish Highlands, all the English soldiers were shocked by the scene in front of them.
The Imperial Army has landed.
Buterin said that although the coast was blocked by the Empire, this did not mean that Britain was completely cut off from the outside world.
It was not impossible to cross the English Channel covertly and alone, and because of this, they also maintained intermittent contact with the European continent.
Through intelligence, he determined that the monster in front of him was an imperial tank, and Scotland simply did not have the ability to create such a machine.
Whoosh whoosh...
While the English soldiers panicked, a formation of forty-two tanks stopped in front of the Scottish position.
Then shells roared from behind the Scottish positions, and as they fell on the English positions, a huge explosion occurred.
Huge craters were blown out of the places where the shells landed, and the soldiers hit by the shells were directly lifted into the air by the air waves, and their bodies were even torn apart.
But what terrified them even more was that they couldn't find the position of the enemy artillery within their visible range.
Scottish position.
Lu Jun and Heinesen were observing the English positions on the south side of the Great Wall. After preparing the army, he immediately led the army into the battlefield.
After all, Falkland was only a two-hour drive from the battlefield.
Hahaha, these damned Englishmen, they should be bombed enough. Heineson laughed very happily.
Because of the range of the howitzers, their artillery was placed on a high ground, five kilometers away from the front line, which also prevented the artillery position from being hit by the enemy.
In Lu Jun's eyes, the howitzer shells fell on Pinghu like raindrops in a torrential rain, setting off one wave after another.
With each explosion, gunpowder and dust flew through the air, taking the lives of English soldiers.
Looking at this scene, Lu Jun pursed his lips tightly, the outcome of England's defeat was doomed with such a significant difference in weapons.
He didn't want to waste too much time in this war, so he ordered tanks and infantry to move forward after a carpet of artillery fire.
Like the Austrian War, he got the command of the Scottish army after entering the battlefield, so now the imperial army is only responsible for fire coverage, and the hand-to-hand combat and fighting on the battlefield are carried out by the Scots themselves.
Heinerson did not refuse this determination, and it would make more sense for him to let the Scots beat the English and then win.
Boom boom boom...
Da da da……
The forward, consisting of forty-two tanks, slowly advanced towards the English positions, while the tanks continued to fire on important targets while the machine gunners poured bullets.
The Scottish soldiers followed behind the tanks, and their positions in the trenches were now taken by Imperial machine gunners and mortars.
Soldiers of the Empire will clear their way forward.
...
England position.
Buterin shook the dust off his body and climbed up from the trench, and then he saw the advancing tank and the Scottish soldiers following the tank.
He pulled up the adjutant lying in the ditch and let him lead the English soldiers to prepare for a counterattack, but found that the bullet hole in the adjutant's eyebrow was bleeding.
This scene reminded him of the battle in India. At that time, he was also facing such a desperate situation, but this time they never retreated.
Traveling through the trenches, Buterin looked for surviving soldiers to join the counterattack, but what shocked him was the casualties caused by the shelling.
The tank was moving very fast, and the English soldiers had not yet organized an effective counterattack. At this time, the Scottish soldiers behind the tank rushed into the ditch.
They took out the grenades supported by the Empire and threw them into the English trenches, and jumped into the trenches with bayonet firing guns to fight the English soldiers hand-to-hand.
The Imperial tanks provided fire support for the Scots in front of the English positions, and the machine guns continued to sweep into the areas where the English resistance was fierce.
It's just that the English people have a strong will to fight. Although many English people were killed by the shelling, they are still fighting the Scots stubbornly.
The first Scottish soldiers to attack were quickly driven back by the still-predominant English soldiers.
In the face of this situation, Lu Jun was very indifferent. The number of English soldiers was almost three times that of Scottish soldiers. Even if the firepower of the empire was fierce, it could not kill so many enemies for a while.
Therefore, such a counter-charge cannot be successful once and requires repeated consumption.
Heinersen had already learned of Lu Jun's plan in advance, so he was not furious at the failure of the first charge.
According to Lu Jun's words, the more impatient England is now, the less impatient they can be, because England's fragile economy may be dragged down by this war of attrition at any time.
On the contrary, Scotland, backed by the Empire, would receive large quantities of food commodities from Africa, and would not be afraid to consume it with England.
At the same time, in order to force England to surrender, Xie Yuan is leading the Marine Corps to attack London. This is his and Lu Jun's plan.
Lu Jun was responsible for trapping Buterin on the front line, so that he could wipe out the English nobles in one sweep.
Bombardment!
Looking at the pocket watch, the imperial warships outside London suddenly launched an attack on the London port. One after another shells fell on the London dock, turning the place into a hell of fire again.
It was only when the citizens of London thought that the Empire was just a routine bombing, they were surprised to find a landing craft carrying soldiers to the Port of London.
Having discovered this, the London garrison immediately concentrated on the port, but the Imperial soldiers quickly occupied the pier and established a defense system.
The machine guns spewed flames, and bullets flew towards the continual reinforcements of British soldiers.
