Chapter 506 Grenades with Poisonous Smoke
Note, it is rice, not unhulled paddy!
In the south of the Wuhun Empire, the Haagen-Dazs Kingdom has a warm and humid climate. Rice is the staple food instead of wheat.
The purchase price of a copper plate and three catties of shelled rice is not buying at all, but grabbing!
In fact, the army of the Star Luo Empire, like the royal family of the Star Luo Empire, and Dai Mubai's thoughts, all implement the policy of iron and blood.
In the Star Luo Empire, the weak do not have the right to survive, only the strong are worthy of survival, big fists make sense.
Therefore, the food of the residents of the Haagen-Dazs Kingdom, including some necessary rations, were forcibly bought at extremely low prices, no, it should be said to be robbed.
This made the residents of the Haagen-Dazs Kingdom miserable, and almost everyone was looking forward to the Wuhun Empire's attack.
In the shop, after listening to what the boss said, Meng De couldn't help laughing at what the Star Luo Empire did.
Is it plagiarism to plunder the food of the residents in this way?Or is this the policy of the entire Star Luo Empire?
If it was the latter, then the Star Luo Empire would be tantamount to digging its own grave and courting its own death.
Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, this is an eternal truth.
Sitting on the shop seat, Meng De smiled confidently at the boss.
"Don't worry, boss, when our army arrives, we will never snatch your rations. We will buy them here for a maximum of two days. After that, the rations will be delivered by plane from the Spirit Empire, and we won't ask you for a penny."
"Really? Thank you so much!"
The boss even cried with joy.
At this time, the rice rolls in the drawer of the iron box were almost finished steaming. The boss quickly pulled out the drawer, scraped them together with a small iron sheet, and put them on the plate...
Soon, the boss put two pieces of sausage with eggs, one piece of sausage with lean meat, and one piece of sausage with bean sprouts on the plate.
He picked up a bottle containing light yellow peanut oil from the side, and poured some oil into the sausage, then scooped up half a spoonful of soy sauce with a small spoon, and poured it on the rice rolls.
After showering, he asked Meng De with a smile.
"General, do you want to eat chili?"
Meng De looked at it, and there was a small pot of chili rings marinated in soy sauce next to it.
Well, let's eat a little.
Meng De thought to himself and nodded.
"Eat, you can add some to me."
"Ok."
The boss responded with a smile, picked up some green chili rings with chopsticks, and put them on the plate.
After putting it away, the boss respectfully brought the plate to Meng De and handed him a pair of chopsticks.
Meng De took the chopsticks and picked up a piece of sausage.
This is a piece of egg sausage with obvious yellow lumps on it, which is caused by steaming after the eggs are scattered.
Meng De smelled it, and the sausage exuded an attractive aroma of peanut oil, as well as a little salty taste.
He sandwiched the intestines and put them in his mouth.
The sausage is very smooth, and you can eat a big bite at once, because it has just been steamed, and it is still a little hot, with a strong aroma of peanut oil and eggs, and the savory taste of soy sauce, it is very delicious.
Meng De ate very quickly, finishing a piece in a few bites, and then picked up a chili ring.
In addition to the green color, the chili rings also have some black.
This is the color of pickled soy sauce.
Meng De put the chili ring into his mouth again.
The chili rings are a bit spicy, but not very spicy. It can be tasted that they are produced in fields with sufficient moisture, not in dry mountains.
Because, the more lack of water, the higher the spiciness of the peppers grown and the stronger the spicy flavor.
In the store, after Mengde finished eating a chili ring, he picked up and ate a large piece of lean sausage.
Compared with the egg sausage, the lean meat sausage is also very slippery, and the lean meat inside is a bit chewy. In addition to the meaty aroma, it also has a little sweetness, which is quite good.
Meng De was very satisfied with his meal.
He started quickly and quickly ate all the rice rolls.
After breakfast, Meng De took out six copper coins from his soul guide and prepared to hand them over to the boss.
The boss saw it and quickly waved his hand.
"No, no, no, the general has worked hard in the war. This meal is my invitation to the general. Your help to drive us away from the Star Luo Empire's army is the best reward."
"Really? Thanks then."
Meng De was not at all pretentious or pretentious, he smiled and put the copper plate back into his soul guide.
Just when Meng De had just had breakfast, hundreds of miles away from the Haagen-Dazs Pass, Qian Nawei led hundreds of thousands of troops, and was fighting against the army of the Star Luo Empire.
Longxing City, in front of the city wall.
A large number of heavy armored infantry of the Star Luo Empire lined up in front, and everyone was very nervous, holding the fine iron spears in their hands tightly.
It was just past nine o'clock in the morning, when the sun began to get smaller and hotter.
The orange-yellow sunlight turned white and bright little by little, and even the temperature rose little by little.
The fine iron armor on the soldiers of the Star Luo Empire reflected a dazzling white light. Some people couldn't help squinting their eyes when the white light hit them.
However, even if they squinted, they did not blink, let alone close their eyes.
Everyone stared ten miles ahead, motionless.
Sweat slid from their faces, running down their cheeks to their necks, soaking into the clothes inside the iron armor, soaking them.
The scene was quiet and chilling, without any noise or talking.
Coupled with the increasingly high temperature, the atmosphere is serious and dull, just like the sultry silence before the storm.
Ten miles away from the Star Luo Empire's army, the atmosphere on the Wuhun Empire's side was similar.
A series of 150 mm caliber artillery was placed in front of the formation, and groups of soldiers stood behind them, holding torches in their hands.
Unlike the soldiers of the Star Luo Empire, the soldiers of the Wuhun Empire don't wear any armor at all, they all wear civilian clothes, and they don't wear helmets, only a felt hat with a brim on top.
In addition, all soldiers have masks covering their faces with a plant pattern embroidered on them.
Before the army formation, the artillery has been loaded in advance, the shells and cylindrical filling gunpowder have been plugged, the fuses have been inserted, and the elevation angle has been calibrated. Just waiting for the commander to give an order, the group of artillerymen will ignite the fuses and fire the shells.
Behind many soldiers, at the position of the central army, Qiannawei stood on a standing car and observed the movement of the Star Luo Empire in the distance with a telescope.
The distance of ten miles is actually quite far. Through the telescope, Qian Nawei can only roughly see the neat and dense rows of figures. As for who is in these figures, whether there are Tang San and others, it is completely unclear.
After looking at the sky, Qian Nawei stretched out her right hand and waved it.
"Order, First Infantry Army, to fire at the enemy."
The semaphore messenger who was riding nearby heard and waved a small flag to convey Qian Nawei's order to the troops ahead.
At the forefront, many semaphore soldiers of the [-]st Infantry Army received a reply, and then each informed the commander of the thousand-man regiment to which they belonged.
After a while, many gunners ignited the artillery fuses together.
"Bah..."
This is the sound of burning the fuses of the artillery, because there are so many artillery pieces, even Qian Nawei can clearly hear it even standing on the Chinese army car.
A few seconds later, only a series of explosions of "bang bang bang...!" were heard, and clouds of gunpowder smoke spewed out from the muzzle, and at the same time, there were phantoms that could not be seen clearly.
An officer saw the Star Luo Empire army formation and shouted, "Here we come, everyone stay hidden!"
When many Xingluo Empire heavy armored infantry heard this, they quickly turned around and entered behind a well-built masonry-earth mixed wall.
The walls were dug lower so that soldiers from the Star Luo Empire could squat down to the ground.
This is what Tang San, Dai Mubai and the others came up with after studying the Wuhun Empire's artillery. Although they didn't know about the trenches, they came to the conclusion that digging a ditch that can squat down can effectively reduce the impact of the artillery bombardment. brought the blow.
In the Wuhun Empire army formation, Qian Nawei naturally observed the movement of the Star Luo Empire through the telescope.
Upon discovering the situation, the corners of her mouth curled up a little, with a hint of sarcasm on her face.
Based on this, you want to guard against the bombardment of artillery?Too whimsical, right?
Indeed, the artillery shells fired at a certain elevation angle will basically not fall into the ditch because of the landing angle, and can only hit the earth wall in front of the ditch or the adobe behind it.
but!
The cannonballs of the Wuhun Empire have... white phosphorus!
In the Xingluo Empire army formation, a large number of shells fell with a howling wind of "Woooo!", and the bombarded ground shook for a while.
"Boom...!"
When the ground was attacked, it continued to explode violently, and mud, rocks and flames rushed into the air nearly 20 meters high!
Thick billowing gunpowder smoke rose into the sky, and under the blessing of wind and explosive force, it floated behind the earthen wall where the soldiers of the Star Luo Empire were.
As the gunpowder smoke drifted past, many soldiers of the Star Luo Empire became dizzy, and then fell down one by one, fainting directly.
In the ditch, Tang San's expression changed instantly.
"poisonous?!"
Exclaiming, he quickly put Xiao Wu into his wishful treasure bag, and then commanded the soldiers to rush towards the forest.
"Everyone, leave quickly and enter the forest to hide!"
Because there are trees in the forest, the wind is not so strong. Even the poisonous smoke does not spread as fast as the flat ground.
After commanding a large number of soldiers, Tang San gritted his teeth at the same time, looking in the direction of the Spirit Empire's army formation, with an anxious expression on his face.
What about avalanches?Why hasn't the raid been launched yet?
Just the day before, Tang San and others discussed with Xue Beng that Tang San would lead the heavy armored infantry to attract the attention of the Spirit Empire, and then Xue Beng would order the light cavalry and Tang's army to raid the Spirit Empire's flank.
The fact that the Spirit Empire's artillery troops are afraid of close combat has been verified before. Therefore, everyone attaches great importance to the mission of raiding the Spirit Empire's flanks, and expects to tear apart the Spirit Empire's army formation, divide and encircle it, and catch them all in one go.
The right wing of the Wuhun Empire army formation is far away, tens of miles away.
Xue Beng, wearing a golden knife at his waist, was riding on a horse. He was wearing a golden armor and a cloak behind his back. He was majestic and quite impressive.
He looked at the Xingluo Empire's military formations in the distance that were beginning to retreat towards the mountains and forests, and then at the Wuhun Empire's artillery positions.
almost……
Xue Beng pondered for a while, then pulled out the golden saber, held it high, and suddenly pointed in the direction of the Wuhun Empire army formation.
