The Indian army fell down a layer with every step, and the morale of the army was already shaken, and even the steel-beaten robots could not stand this kind of stimulation."
Tut, tut, tut" At this time, there were dense gunfire from the position of the Huaxing army, and this time the gunfire was obviously more intense.The muffled heavy metal sound seemed to tear the space apart.Bullets rained down.Dense and black.The gun array of the Indian Sikh army was almost devastated, and half of the men and horses that were still left rolled down in an instant.Blood stained the earth red, and corpses covered it layer after layer.There were wails and cries on the battlefield, and even the British troops in the trenches in the rear were terrified.The cold-blooded massacre lasted only a minute or two, and the 30,000 Indian Sikhs fell in the same way in a pool of blood on three battlefields."
Oh God," Charlton gasped, his legs already shaking.That's more than 30,000 living soldiers, all slaughtered within ten minutes of the battle.In his eyes, the Huaxing Army was completely a bloodthirsty slaughtering machine.If you continue to fight like this, let alone persist for a day, it will be difficult to persist for an hour.The Indian Sikhs were killed, wounded, and finally the gun formation completely collapsed, and they turned around and fled in all directions.But the bullets on the battlefield are flying, where can you escape.The reason why the Huaxing army put them into a distance of 300 meters before fighting was that they could not escape some range.They will die if they enter, and they will die if they flee.Of course, lying on the ground and not moving is also death.The straggler line of the Huaxing Army attacked again, and the British troops on the position immediately tensed up and waited for it.The wounded, remnants, and deserters of the Sikh army fell to the ground, and then they were re-shot by the Huaxing army, and the Sikh army was no longer visible on the battlefield.The position of the British army has been torn open by the Type 68 artillery of the Huaxing Army, and the position of more than 100 meters long is empty.The defending British were either killed by grenades or fled in both directions.Since the howitzers of the Huaxing Army were fired, thousands of shells have been poured on the positions of the British army.The British were still lying in the trenches and holding their positions, but the trenches were flattened layer by layer, and they could no longer resist the rampage of shrapnel.No matter how strict the commander ordered, the soldiers still fled in a hurry to both sides.The Huaxing army quickly rushed through this breakthrough and soon attacked more than 300 meters from the British position.The mortar battalion, which had been holding back just now, finally came in handy, and aimed its guns at the positions on both sides of the British army.At this time, the two sides were already shooting loudly, but because the distance was still too far.Hiding in the trenches on one side and prostrate on the ground on the other did not make much difference.They only heard the sound of gunshots, but did not see anyone die.But the mortar battalion of the Huaxing Army changed all this in an instant, and when the commander gave the order, hundreds of mortar shells suddenly rushed into the sky, like hailstones and densely smashed down on the British position."
Boom, boom, boom" explosions one after another, and the British positions seemed to be half boiling water, and black smoke was emitting from the sky.Although the mortar shells were small, they were numerous, and when they fell, they rolled directly into the trenches.The British almost vomited blood, and since the beginning of the war, the roar in their ears has not stopped."
Bastard, come on, come and blow me up" British Captain Claire completely collapsed, stood up directly, and shot desperately at Huaxing Army with a rifle."
Boom, boom, boom" mortar shells kept exploding around him, but he was crazy and didn't pay any attention to it."
Captain, get down, get down" shouted the soldiers, and just as they were about to drag him into the trench, a mortar shell exploded right next to Claire.After the smoke passed, Claire rolled down the trench as if she had been roasted, black and devoid of her appearance.The soldiers' eyes were round, and no one dared to show their heads anymore, and they all lay in the trenches with their heads in their hands, praying to God in their hearts.After a while, the howitzers finally stopped bombing, but the British did not catch their breath, and mortar shells began to bombard again.The Huaxing army is roughly divided into four steps to deal with the trench defense system, the first step is to open the gap with new howitzers, the second step is to use mortars to directly cover the fire, the third step is to use grenades to accurately throw bombardment, and the last step is to send infantry to break through the gap into the trench.Suppressed by the mortar battalion, the Huaxing army soon approached the British trenches.When the two sides were fifty meters apart, the gunfire became more and more rapid.The British did not care to dodge the shells, and they all showed their heads and returned fire with guns.The infantry of the Huaxing Army took out the grenades from their waists one after another, and threw them wherever there was gunfire.Compared with the indiscriminate bombardment of grenades and mortar shells, this kind of targeted grenade throwing is obviously more lethal.The trenches of the British army were bombarded in turns, and the soldiers were on the verge of collapse for a long time.Now that the grenades exploded intensively, everyone went completely crazy, scolded the Huaxing Army for being perverted, turned around and fled to the city.The British army was originally a deserter who was withdrawn from Chittagong, and they had long been frightened by the Huaxing army.It is not easy for them to hold out until now under such intensive artillery fire.The defeat was like a mountain, and when the British troops in one position began to retreat, the British troops in the other positions could not wait to retreat.The Huaxing army smoothly rushed into the British trenches, and then quickly cleared both sides.The British army's will to resist was completely destroyed, and without firing a shot, Saya retreated into the city.Charlton was demoralized by his generals, but the situation was completely out of control, and he didn't stop them.Anyway, the defense of Madaripur City is divided into two parts: inside and outside the city, and after the loss of the outside of the city, there is still the city to defend.The interior of the castle is typical of Southeast Asian architecture, which has been built by the British army like a large bunker.There are bunkers made of sacks at the end of the street, and the second floor of the main street is reinforced with masonry, revealing only a firing hole, which is set up in crossfire with the opposite building.Once the enemy invades the streets, they can only be a dead end.The battle lasted until the afternoon, and the three trenches outside the city were completely controlled by the Huaxing army.The British were not killed by bullets, and it didn't take long for both sides to retreat into the city after firing each other's guns.On the contrary, more than 30,000 people were bombed by bombs in turn, and now more than half of the dead and wounded have been killed, and those who are alive have also been shot by the Huaxing army.Before marching into India, Qiao Zhiqing did not think about capturing these British troops in order to avoid unnecessary casualties of the Huaxing army.The two sides do not understand the language, behavior, and habits.You put your gun at him and shouted that you don't kill him, and he thought you were going to shoot him, and this misunderstanding is bound to cause unnecessary casualties.Therefore, the Huaxing army rushed all the way up, and there was basically no one alive on the battlefield except for those who pretended to be dead
