Chapter 415 The best training is the conscience of the world in actual combat, the artillery shelling level of the Dutch, although it is not a super-level performance, at least the middle and upper level.If it were other Ming troops, in the face of such a stormy shelling, even if they didn't shoot, they would have peed.But the key is that Quan Xu adopted the trench tactics of the First World War, specifically restraining artillery bombardment, not to mention this kind of solid bullet, even if it is a flowering bullet, it is powerless in the face of the enemy in the trench.In particular, the soft soil is the nemesis of the solid shell, once the shell falls into the soft soil, the kinetic energy of the shell will be consumed two-thirds, as for the trench about two meters wide, even if the shell hits it, it will not form a lethal force.The problem, however, is that this is a real society.Whatever the reason, the Dutch artillery fired hundreds of shells, and instead of casualties, the whole family army made a lot of sarcasm at them.As for the Spaniard, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and he had a smile on his face.Although there is not a word of sarcasm, this kind of look does not stand up to scrutiny at all.The most popular thing was Zheng Zhibao, who was standing behind the representative of the Dutch East India Company, who looked at Zheng Zhilong in a low voice and said, "The Dutch don't seem to be remarkable!"
”But this Steven, he can understand it.At this time, he could only pretend that he couldn't listen to Chinese, otherwise it would be even more embarrassing.The army artillery major, who was in charge of directing the shelling, was scolded to the point of blood, and then, he was replaced by an excellent naval artillery commander of the navy who personally stepped forward to command, and from the battleship behind, a large number of 32-pounder guns were unloaded.It was only at noon that the second round of artillery bombardment began, this time using more than 180 artillery pieces.More than 180 pieces of artillery were not small, and the exploratory shelling alone formed a large puff of gunsmoke, covering up the entire Dutch artillery position, and more than 180 shells flew in a parabola to the trench position of the whole army.Although there were more than 180 pieces of artillery, the Dutch insisted on firing a thousand cannons, not to mention that the army encountered this kind of artillery bombardment, even if the Jiannu, who was good at fighting, faced this kind of artillery bombardment, they should have thrown down their weapons and fled.Fortunately, there is a trench, otherwise, even if the whole family army is faced with this situation, I am afraid that it will not be able to hold on.During the naval war, in the case of insufficient accuracy of naval guns, the Dutch would draw the predetermined target area into a small grid in order to improve the hit rate, and it didn't matter if one shot missed the opponent, that is, ten guns and twenty guns aimed at one target.After just one round of shelling, the barbed wire fence in front of the first trench was blown to pieces, and if this was a team of muskets that lined up to shoot, the end would be the same, and it would have collapsed directly by this round of shelling.Now the whole family soldiers did not curse the Dutch, they were so shocked by the huge roar that they could not hear the sound, and the dust and smoke kicked up by the shells made the whole family soldiers in the trench disgraced and embarrassed."
Not bad, go ahead"!
The Dutch, seeing that the first results were good, began a frenzied artillery bombardment, more than one hundred and eighty guns, shells smashed into the trench positions of the whole army as if they did not want money."
Each division left a flag to monitor the position, the others withdrew from the communication trench, the sentries observed in time, and prepared support sites anytime and anywhere!"
Jiang Baisheng gave the order in an orderly manner, and then he looked at Liu Quan and said: "Don't let the Dutch sing a one-man show, don't be rude when you come, let them see the shelling of our whole army!"
”The shelling of the two sides of the "Boom Bomb ......" began to unfold in full swing, and because the smoke of the Dutch gunpowder had a certain covering effect, the shelling effect of the whole army was also unsatisfactory.On the whole, the Dutch had the upper hand at the beginning of the shelling, of course, only the upper hand, and after two hours of shelling, the frequency of the Dutch shelling decreased.There was no way, the duel between solid shells and flowering shells was originally unfair, although the Dutch had the advantage in the number of artillery, the losses were far greater than the whole army.This huge artillery battle lasted for a whole day, and the Dutch fired thousands of cannons.A truce was collected day and night, and early the next morning, something happened that made the Dutch so depressed that they wanted to vomit blood.It took them a whole day and thousands of shells to destroy the barbed wire fence of the whole army, and it only took one night to reappear in front of the position.These barbed wires were not actually destroyed, most of them were just knocked down by the support columns, even if the wires were broken by the huge impact of the shells, it was very convenient to connect, and the big deal was just a few pincers.The interpreter Lin Ashui looked at the depressed appearance of the Dutch through the binoculars, and was very happy: "General Jiang, your method is so effective, the red-haired ghost is so angry that he is going crazy!"
”Jiang Baisheng looked at Lin Ashui and said: "Tell you three things, first, I'm not a general, not even a general, I'm just a colonel in the whole family's army, the second thing, this tactic was invented by the whole marshal, the whole marshal will not do useless work, the third thing, you received fifty taels of silver black money, this is the last time, otherwise, the military law will deal with it!"
”Lin Ashui's translation directly led to a series of problems, but it wasn't actually his cleverness that played a role, but Jiang Baisheng needed such a result.He needs to be quick and doesn't want to stall with Puttmans.Although Lin Ashui has problems, he is a useful person, and if he can withstand this beating, he will have a place in Taiwan in the future, and if he does not know how to advance or retreat, he will have no future in the future.People can take revenge if they have revenge, but they can't be confused by hatred!"
Ah Shui understands!""
Let's wait and see the show!"
Jiang Baisheng was very calm at this time, after the establishment of Quanxu's new defense system, he found that the Dutch did not have a very good way at all, and the two sides saw each other.Another day of shelling, the Dutch again destroyed more than fifty pieces of artillery, while the whole army lost one and six artillery soldiers.As for the Dutch, at least more than three hundred were killed and wounded.On December 28, the fourth year of Chongzhen's reign, the fourth day of the Dutch landing in Tainan and attacking Chiang Baisheng's troops, the Dutch finally dispatched their army soldiers.After three days of continuous shelling, the Dutch finally understood that this seemingly rudimentary fortification was strange and could not be destroyed by artillery fire alone, so they went out with thousands of army soldiers to find out the truth first.Seeing the Dutch infantry attacking, Jiang Baisheng smiled.Since the Dutch launched their attack on Tainan, for seven consecutive days, the Dutch have been the sparring partners in front of the whole family army, and the tribal leaders of various ethnic groups in Tainan and Taichung have clearly seen the gap between the Dutch and the whole family army, and they also realized that if they want to confront the whole family army, they will die a very ugly death.However, what Jiang Baisheng did not expect was that these Dutch army soldiers did not attack directly, but lined up in a neat line and acted as spectators.Not long after, a strange cavalry appeared on the battlefield.The Dutch cavalry was not none, but very few, and they were all heavily armoured, like steel monsters.But the cavalry was very strange, they had no bows and arrows, they carried spears or scimitars, they were dressed in all sorts, and they had tall cloth scarves tied around their heads.If Quan Xu was here, he would definitely recognize it immediately, this is India's Shalou Qi cavalry.Jiang Baisheng didn't know the Indian cavalry, of course, there was no need to know, no matter who it was, it was the enemy who appeared in front of the formation, as long as it was the enemy, just kill them.What drove the cavalry out of battle?
It was not the Minnie gun that was blown like an artifact of national destruction, but the barbed wire and the heavy machine gun, the former making it difficult for the cavalry to move an inch, and the latter turning the cavalry's irreversible charge into a moth to the fire!"
Get ......"
The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and the group of Indian cavalry was about one or two thousand horsemen, they shouted and shouted, and rushed to the front of the whole family army in a scattered formation.The soldiers of the whole family looked at each other: "What the hell is this?"
”Needless to say, the Jiannu cavalry, not better than the Mongolian cavalry, even the Guanning cavalry, even any cavalry of the Ming army is stronger than them, they are no longer cavalry, at best they are Shandong Xiangma."
The feast has begun!"
Jiang Baisheng smiled faintly: "The mines explode first, the artillery bombards again, and the infantry is ready to harvest the heads!"
”As the Indian cavalry rushed into the area where the mines were planted, one by one the fuses began to ignite.There was no way, if the contact fuse was taken, the mines were detonated by the artillery of the Dutch.As the mines began to explode, the artillery of the entire family army opened fire at full speed into the cavalry formation.In order to ensure the density of the shelling, flowering shells, solid shells, primitive mortars, and 105 smoothbore guns smashed towards this cavalry formation.In just one round of shelling, the Indian cavalry lost three or four hundred cavalry, collapsed directly, turned their horses' heads, kicked each other, and made a mess.If Quan Xu was here, he would definitely say that he dared to use Indians as the winners, which was really kind.The war in Tainan immediately came to a stalemate.Hit it, don't hit it.If you don't fight, you won't be able to save face.The scene was very awkward for a while.Of course, they don't have to be embarrassed.Port Arthur.Quan Xu inspected the 38 Exocet battleships of the Liaodong Second Fleet, as well as the Marine Brigade's machine gun division, Quan Xu's plan was that each Exocet battleship was equipped with a machine gun division, using rockets and machine guns to enhance the firepower of the Exocet.Of course, four hunting submarines also began to be commissioned.Quan Xu looked at the generals and said: "I know, you are not fully familiar with your equipment, you can't even overhaul it, the enemy won't give us time, we don't have time, the best training is always actual combat, now I order, the Second Fleet of the Liaodong Navy, the Flying Fish Group, the Submarine Hunting Group, board the ship!"
