Red Alert 1895

"Since the Spaniards are unwilling to surrender, we will give them a very serious warning!" Ma Junhui said.

"Let the three artillery regiments bombard me hard, you're welcome. We just want to let them see that not only you foreign devils have strong boats and sharp guns, but we Chinese also have strong boats and sharp guns. Moreover, our cannons More than you, more violent than you!" Ma Junhui continued.

"The 1102 Artillery Regiment is loaded!" "The 1201 Artillery Regiment is loaded!"...

Soon, the three artillery regiments were all loaded, and then the artillery commander immediately said: "Fire!"

"Papa papa..."

More than one hundred cannons from the three artillery regiments fired towards the distance, and these cannons were all 75mm caliber cannons with a range of five kilometers. The Spaniards were immediately saturated with shelling, and they were not in a panic.

"Boom-boom-boom-"

The shells fell into the positions of the Spanish Army soldiers, and the Spanish Army began to suffer intense saturation shelling. And they hid in the trenches, not daring to raise their heads at all, because once they raised their heads, they would feel a burst of air waves enough to blow them over. Sometimes there will even be violent shrapnel flying over and killing them. After paying the price of more than 30 Spanish army soldiers, those Spanish armies did not dare to look up at all, obviously knowing that the shelling was too violent.

"Why are the Chinese shelling so violent? Don't they all say that the Chinese are fighting with cold weapons?" A Spanish soldier asked immediately.

"I don't know either! In the past, we all thought that the Chinese fought with cold weapons. Why is the enemy's artillery so fierce? Besides, I heard that the squadron on the opposite side only has more than 40,000 people, but they have There are more artillery than our army group of hundreds of thousands of people! Such fierce artillery fire. We can't lift our heads at all." A Spanish platoon leader said.

And Taiwan's bombardment continued, and then this kind of saturated bombardment made the Spaniards suddenly unable to take the courage to show their heads, and it was obviously impossible to raise their heads.

"Don't show your head, hide in the cat's ear hole, and don't come out. This is the experience of Taiwanese people in defending against artillery. It can effectively prevent the shock wave and shrapnel of artillery shells. They are all anti-aircraft in this way, and we all have to learn now Taiwan’s experience is worth it,” said the Spanish platoon leader.

"Where are our cannons? Why didn't they fire back?" A soldier asked immediately.

And outside the range of Taiwan artillery. There is a meeting in the Spanish headquarters, and they obviously want to discuss how to deal with Taiwan's shelling.

"Commander Boris, let's get the artillery to fight back! If the artillery doesn't fire back, it's impossible for us to let the soldiers resist with confidence. The artillery of the Taiwanese is so powerful that our soldiers don't even talk about raising their heads. Now the soldiers can only blame them for hiding in the cat ear holes. They dare not come out. If this continues, it will be a very serious blow to the morale of our soldiers. At first they looked down on the Chinese and dared to fight the Chinese, but now If we are so passively beaten for a long time, then our soldiers may not have the confidence to fight." A staff officer said.

Although Taiwan's shelling did not cause much damage to the Spaniards, such a violent shelling had a great blow to the morale of the Spaniards. Because such fierce artillery fire is enough to make their morale plummet. After all, the feeling of being beaten but not being able to fight back is really helpless. Originally, the Spaniards' attitude towards the squadron was very arrogant, and they looked down on the squadron very much. There is not as much news for ordinary Spaniards as for those high-ranking officials. They don't know how powerful Taiwan's army is. And after the Taiwanese army defeated the Japanese, they would not feel that there was anything special. After all, Japan is also an unpopular country in the eyes of their Western countries. One bad country beats another bad country. How can they let the big powers who are old enough to be outdated pay attention to them? In their eyes, no matter how much new news there is in China, they still think that China is still the same China in the past few decades, and the British can send tens of thousands of people to beat China to surrender. Therefore, these Spaniards are still very confident in China and have the confidence to defeat the Taiwan army.

But the Taiwanese army used more than a hundred cannons to teach them a lesson. Tell them that China also has cannons. And the cannon is not inferior to their level, more advanced than them. even better. The Spanish soldiers also knew in their hearts that Taiwan's cannons were not the copper cannons of the past few decades, but the most advanced howitzers, which made it impossible for them to raise their heads and fight back. And this situation made the Spaniards' morale plummet. Obviously, such a fierce artillery fire made it impossible for the Spaniards to have the confidence to fight back.

"I don't agree to let our artillery counterattack! Because our artillery has only nine artillery batteries, which is less than one-third of the opponent's total. Each of our divisions has only one artillery battery, and each of their artillery divisions has one artillery Regiment, and they still have a lot of light mortar grenades and other weapons. So we are extremely backward in firepower, so we should cherish our artillery at this time. In a Chinese saying, that is good steel On the edge of the knife, pressing is the most fundamental thing only when the limited artillery is used in important places. I think that if the artillery is used too early, pressing is not only useless. Because the artillery firepower of the opponent is more than three times that of ours, So we can't suppress the opponent at all. On the contrary, if we use the artillery prematurely, then the opponent can take the opportunity to calculate our trajectory, and then carry out a targeted attack on our artillery. At that time, once we have no artillery, it is equivalent to We lack an important basis to restrict the opponent, so we can't expose our artillery prematurely!"

"However, if we don't use artillery, what will happen to the morale of our soldiers? Could it be that the Taiwanese army will bomb us so violently? At that time, our soldiers will lose their confidence. That situation is the most terrible."

"Then if the artillery is completely wiped out, what should we do? If we don't have artillery, how can we stop the enemy from charging? Therefore, we can't use artillery so early!"

Watching the quarrel between the two staff officers, the Spanish commander Boris felt that the public was right and the woman was right, and each had their own ideas. And the core problem here is that there are too few artillery, and the Spaniards don't have many artillery to use. Although the Spaniards are old powers, even before the British, they were called the empire on which the sun never sets. But since losing the war with the British hundreds of years ago, it has lost its status as a maritime power. And now the economic situation of the Spaniards is also tight, and their infantry division is just an artillery company. You must know that even for the Germans in this period, an infantry division only had an artillery battalion, which is already very remarkable. There is a situation where the price of weapons like Taiwan is more than ten times cheaper. Anyway, spending one dollar is enough to equip artillery for more than three divisions. This situation makes Taiwan's artillery fire so fierce that Western powers want to die. Taiwan's tactics are completely local tyrants, who use bullets and intensive artillery to hit you, and behind this is money like water. So Taiwan is spending money to smash them to death, which shocks Westerners.

Even the British, who are known as local tyrants, have to marvel at Taiwan's financial situation. Taiwan's financial situation is a miracle in the world, so this made the Spanish commander want to die. Now that the artillerymen are bullying him so much, there is nothing to say about this.

"Well, in this case, our artillery is indeed insufficient. This is an important factor. Therefore, we must protect our artillery to avoid enemy bombing!" Boris said.

And the artilleryman who supported not firing immediately smiled, obviously thinking that Boris agreed with his idea. However, what Boris said next made everyone feel a little vomiting blood.

"However~www.readwn.com~ The morale of the troops is also very important. If we are hit like this for a long time, I am afraid that our soldiers will face a huge blow in the future. And we must find a way to fire appropriately, Then let our soldiers not be so demoralized. Therefore, we must counterattack the Taiwan army to a certain extent while ensuring that the artillery is safe, so that we can solve this problem with the best of both worlds." Boris said.

"Commander, what should we do then?" A staff officer immediately asked.

Boris immediately said: "Ask me what I am doing. It should be the problem for you staff officers to solve! You must think of a way. You must use artillery to effectively counterattack Taiwan's army while ensuring the safety of our artillery. It is the task that you should complete! Well, I will stop here, and you can figure out a way for yourself!"

"Fuck!" Everyone cursed in their hearts.

After talking for a long time, this Boris was completely arguing with the mud, saying that there was no use. As an aristocrat, the composition of a politician is far more than that of a soldier, so when others ask him to make up his mind, everything he speaks seems to be in an even order, as if there are no loopholes. In the end, he seemed to have said everything, but after careful consideration, these were all fart-like nonsense. Therefore, this is difficult for those staff officers. (to be continued)
