The mercenaries of the Umbrella Company are still very rich. The salary plus Shanghai allowance and combat allowance are easily comparable to the British middle class. With the energy of the Umbrella Company, it is not difficult to own a thousand acres of farm in Betzona.

This scale of several thousand acres is always a fantasy in Huanggang. Ling Zhi is already one of the best rich men in Medan, with a plantation area of ​​only more than 4,000 acres. In this way, it is actually not as good as an ordinary mercenary in the Umbrella Company.

"If it is an ordinary immigrant, the state capital will definitely not allocate so much land, but there are still one or two hundred acres, which is more than enough to support a family." Hicks did not lie. This opportunity is rare now. I don't know how long the policy of Begina State can be implemented. It depends on the speed of immigration increase. When the population of Begina State reaches a certain level, this benefit will definitely be cancelled.

"I, I want to go back and discuss with my family." Huang Gang was indeed moved, but he was not yet able to take action immediately.

The main problem is that it is the credibility issue. Southern Africa has just begun to immigrate from the Qing Dynasty, and the Chinese in the Qing Dynasty have also been suspicious and hesitant. Some people even received the ocean sent by their relatives, and they also thought it was a carefully arranged scam. They did not believe that there was such a good thing that a pie fell from the sky.

In recent years, more and more ships have been traveling between the Qing Dynasty and southern Africa, and more and more Chinese people have traveled between the Qing Dynasty, which has made more Chinese people believe that these benefits are true.

Unfortunately, the Qing Dynasty has noticed crazy immigration in southern Africa in recent years, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to immigrate through formal channels, so southern Africa has tried to immigrate from Southeast Asia.

"Then you have to hurry up. Recently, many people have applied to immigrate to southern Africa. There is a boat trip almost the next day at Medan Port. If the benefits are cancelled, don't say I'm lying to you." Hicks could only say that there is an opportunity. It depends on whether you can catch it or not.

Before Huang Gang could speak, a sharp whistle suddenly came from the nearby positions.

The Second East India Division finally launched an attack again, and it was more than an hour since the last attack.

The troops involved in the attack were about seven or eight hundred people in a battalion. These soldiers lined up in a crooked queue under the force of officers and were launching group charges to the mercenary positions.

It is different from the group charge of British troops. If the British troops initiate a group charge, then the officers should be at the forefront of the team.

The officers of the Second East India Division obviously did not have the courage, and even the white officers did not participate in the attack at all, but stayed at the starting position to command the only Maxim supervising battle.

Those guys involved in the attack are really unlucky. When they move forward, they will be hit by fire from mercenaries. When they retreat, they will die under their own guns. Many people's expressions are desperate and crazy.

"Stay, keep steady, keep steady—" Hicks loudly reminded that the general-purpose machine guns around him have been replaced with tripods. In fact, the offensive forces of the Second East India Division are now within the range of the bullets.

In order to achieve the greatest possible killing effect, Hicks must have put the Second East India Division closer. If he fires now, the enemy may still escape. The mercenaries originally wanted to capture prisoners, but after seeing so many tragedies along the way, David decided not to leave a prisoner and to eliminate all the Second East India Division as a warning.

Don’t forget that most of the people killed are Chinese or Chinese. There may be Baba Nyonya in the Second Division of East India, but these people are not worthy of forgiveness.

Five hundred meters, the first squadron and the two nearby squadrons maintained tacit understanding and did not fire.

Three hundred meters, Hicks can still calm down, and officers from nearby positions have already started shouting "Preparation-"

Two hundred meters, some soldiers of the Second East India Division could no longer hold back their guns and aimed at the mercenary positions. More than twenty light and heavy machine guns on the three squadron positions opened fire together.

Hicks didn't know what a meat grinder was, but for a moment, there was really a flowing light and blood flying in front of the position.

The tracer bullets that marked the trajectory, and the flesh and blood were flying across the East India Second Division that was charging forward.

From Hicks' perspective, the soldiers of the East India Second Division who were attacking were swept down in rows like harvesting wheat. The original dense formation instantly showed large gaps. The surviving soldiers were stunned for a second or two, and then panicked and turned around and ran away.

Unfortunately, no matter how fast the two legs ran, they could not run bullets that exceeded the speed of sound. The machine gunners of the Umbrella Company were all skilled workers who were rigorously trained and fed with bullets. Under the guidance of tracer bullets, the fastest soldiers did not run out a hundred meters. In just about thirty seconds, all the troops of a battalion were wiped out.

No one had time to let the law enforcement team of the Second East India Division take action.

"How about a boy, do you have any results?" Hicks asked Huang Gang after the gunfire stopped.

"It seems that there is, I seem to hit one, but it seems--" Huang Gang blushed. Hicks didn't shoot a shot just now, but Huang Gang emptied a five-round magazine.

It’s not Hicks who are lazy, but Hicks trusts those strictly trained machine gunners. Even if they are in the British Army, they can afford the title of “elite” and are qualified to embroider the logo on their sleeves.

Huang Gang is just a simple passionate person, and this situation usually happens to new recruits.

"We need to shoot only if the enemy enters within 100 meters. As long as the machine gunner is not killed in battle, our biggest function is to prepare to throw grenades. If the enemy is close to the position fifty meters, then we have to throw grenades, then put on bayonets, and prepare to fight with the enemy in hand and hand." Hicks did not hesitate to teach his experience. The faster the recruits such as Huang Gang grow, the easier it will be for Hicks and others.

"I understand - do we need to clean the battlefield?" Huang Gang was eager to try.

The soldiers who were shot dead were actually all money. The mercenaries may not look down on the little oil and water on the soldiers of the Second East India Division, but it still has a problem for the soldiers of the Medan army. Even those ragged and blood-stained clothes can be washed and repaired, and they can still wear them. They are all children of poor families and do not pay so much attention.

"It's not possible now. You will become targets after leaving the position - and those are not all corpses. Someone must pretend to be dead. When cleaning the battlefield, you should pay attention to finishing the guns, and don't move the corpses casually. Maybe a grenade is pressed under a certain corpse." Hicks said his life, but he was actually too worried. Now, only the southern African troops in the world use grenades on a large scale. Using grenades to make various thunders is the best way for mercenaries.

During the live-fire exercises of various confrontational training in southern Africa, the thunders caused many troops to suffer a lot. Later, the Ministry of Defense of Southern Africa simply compiled a thunders production tutorial, which is now a textbook for the Niasalan Army Academy.

"Will the person on the other side collect the body?" Huang Gang stretched his neck and looked at it, his eyes really hot.

"Be careful—" Hicks reminded, and then called an accurate shooter to signal: "Can you see that white officer?"

Hicks refers to a big tree about 700 meters away, a white officer from the Second East India Division was watching Hicks with a telescope.

"Yes-" The precise shooter first observed with a telescope before adjusting the scope.

The seven hundred meters are actually a bit far for the precise shooter, but it is a little bit of a meaning for the sniper. After all, the rifle used by the sniper is equipped with a four-fold scope produced by Niasaran.

"Hold your breath, aim patiently, kill with one blow--" Hicks nagged, the precise shooter did not speak, and pulled the trigger ten seconds later.

It's indeed a killing one blow!

"Beautiful! Pay attention to observation, take the initiative to shoot when you see someone, and we should not capture prisoners this time." Hicks was satisfied. This is the value of an accurate shooter.

What Hicks didn't know was that the precise shooter killed Derek Roland, the major general commander of the Second East India Division.

Even if he knows, Hicks won’t care. He has no eyes on the battlefield. Since he comes to the battlefield, he must have the awareness of being killed at any time.

At 11:00 a.m., the "Albatross" bomber departing from Medan Port Airport finally arrived in Xianda.

In this era, it was very troublesome to dispatch aircraft, because there was no radio or electronic map, and pilots could only rely on their experience to find combat targets.

However, experience is useless in unfamiliar areas, so you need guidance on ground targets. Usually, the ground uses a fire to indicate direction and targets.

So the "Albatross" has not arrived until now.

The first batch was a total of three "albatrosses". The "albatross" bombers that could have loaded 400 kilograms of torpedoes. Now they have replaced the torpedoes with 50 kilogram bombs. Limited to the pylons under the wings, and one "albatross" can only be hung with six.

Six are enough. Xianda is a village with only more than 1,000 people. Now it has squeezed into nearly 10,000 troops. The density can be imagined. Eighteen 50-kilogram bombs are enough to blow Xianda upwards.

The army of this era did not have the habit of digging air raid shelters, nor did it have air defense weapons. However, in Tripolitania, Italian ground troops successfully shot down a "strong wind" fighter jet purchased by the Ottoman Empire from Niasaran. It is said that the pilot was killed and the plane crashed. This was also the first aircraft in the world to be shot down by ground troops.

The Italian army is not a joke for the entire Europe now, and its combat effectiveness is still strong, at least stronger than the Second East India Division.

So when the three "albatrosses" were flew in the shape of a finished product, many soldiers from the Second East India Division were watching the fun below, and even the officers and soldiers in the rooms were attracted.

When the three "albatrosses" dropped the bombs, a miracle finally happened. The mercenaries on the ground and the soldiers of the Second East India Division were cheering. The mercenaries were celebrating victory, while the soldiers of the Second East India Division were just watching the fun.
