Because the forward position is not very stable, these people are not ready yet, so the large-caliber artillery has not been delivered yet, but the small-caliber artillery also has its own advantages, that is, it fires faster
In addition, a batch of grenades were quickly transported from the earth this morning. This thing can be called a small mortar, but the range is shorter, and the ammunition is
The weight is also relatively light, only about 300 to 400 meters at most, but one person can carry everything, and one person can launch it. If there are cannonballs hanging all around, there can be thirty or forty of them.
One person can carry a mortar. Mortars of the same caliber generally weigh at least 6 kilograms. The grenade used by the Cao Family Trading Company weighs less than 3 kilograms, which is actually lighter than a rifle.
It is basically the same weight as a serial crossbow and is very suitable for individual soldiers to carry. The Type 91 hand grenade is only 0.45 kilograms, and an ammunition bag with eight rounds is only 3.6 kilograms. Including the grenade, the entire combat system totals less than
7 kilograms, much lighter than a super serial crossbow. Due to its light weight, the grenade team will not be as heavy as the mortar team or heavy machine gun team - unable to fight with the front-line infantry in time. In actual combat,
The grenade team can even charge with the infantry. Generally speaking, the killing radius of a grenade is about 5 to 8 meters. If a grenade falls in a crowd, it can kill dozens of people. This power is for a 50 mm caliber
It's still pretty good. For an earth with mature technology, the cost of a grenade is only a quarter of a super serial crossbow. The Type 91 grenade is basically the same as an ordinary infantry grenade and is extremely cheap. Such a price is not bad compared to a grenade.
In terms of the record, it is simply too cheap. Considering some cost issues on the front line, this is also very good. There used to be a lot of these things during World War II. The military on the earth produced them.
This kind of thing is pretty good. At the beginning, many people didn't know how to use the grenade, but later on when people saw the first person using it, they knew how to use it. This kind of thing can be said to be very useful.
These people have seen the benefits of this thing. One by one, they have to sign up to receive one of these things. However, there are also orders from above. Twenty people in a class can only have two of these things.
Knowing that 20 people in a squad have their own responsibilities, it is impossible for more people to control this thing. After the military reform of the Cao Family Commercial Bank, the number of people in the squad can be said to have reached 20.
During the war, it even reached 26 people. Just like now, it has reached 30 people. Three of them operate a mortar, two people transport artillery shells, and four people operate a super serial crossbow. This takes up three people.
One-third of the people were left, and the other people still needed to charge, so it was already very good to have two more people. However, after the war started, they quickly understood how useful this thing was.
Two people can quickly follow the troops and charge. As long as they find there is danger somewhere, they can directly go over and shoot two shots. If they are not sure, they can even shoot directly. This kind of thing is really good.
, much stronger than the mortars behind the call. These people in the Eastern Empire have probably never seen such high-frequency artillery fire, and they were frightened at this moment.
They all know that the Cao Family Trading Company's army has strong firepower, but they still don't feel the same situation as today. None of them know what the Cao Family Trading Company's people are equipped with. There are still many
If the general can unite his soldiers, some of them can be regarded as forming a defensive front with some fortifications. Their archers will also perform some projectiles. In this way, they can also bring benefits to the people of the Cao Family Trading Company.
It's quite harmful, but now it seems that this is of little use. Basically, the people in Cao's Commercial Bank will not care about this thing. They will all have their own methods. I really don't know if such a thing happens.
What should I say? After the people from Cao's Trading Company used this grenade, they were immediately dumbfounded. How could they hit it so accurately? You must know that this artillery was always around when you came here. Now it's better.
Why do they always shoot at crowded places? They know that the artillery of the Cao Family Trading Company has its own observers, but it cannot shoot so accurately. Haven't they all changed places? It's the same as the one at the beginning
Times were completely different. How could such a situation happen? Now that such a situation has occurred, no one knows what to do, so they continue to retreat. Li Li immediately ordered to rush in.
, the gate of the camp was blown open by two grenades. Thousands of soldiers did not rush in. Instead, they listened to their commanders and threw thousands of grenades into the camp.
Thousands of grenades are nothing. As long as this thing is needed, there will be plenty of it later. Such things are nothing compared to human lives. This is also an offensive strategy of the Cao Family Trading Company. Tell those behind you not to
Hiding inside and placing cold guns, after the grenade was thrown, it was only a few hundred meters away. Immediately, the soldiers of the Cao Family Trading Company rushed in. Within this 100-meter distance, there was basically no good place that was blown up by the grenade.
Even those who were still breathing were dumbfounded. How could they start throwing this thing regardless of the cost? When they sprinted to the next 100 meters, these people immediately took out their second weapons.
A grenade was fired. These people once again performed the same move as before. Although this advancement speed was a little slower, it was absolutely safe. Only less than five people were injured in the last 100 meters. If it really started, then
If we rush in, we don't know how many people have been killed or injured. The people from Cao's Trading Company are not very good at such street fighting. Even if they have hand crossbows, they will not be able to do it. The enemies are hidden in the dark.
Yes, the sudden appearance may make many people react. It is for this reason that Li Congcai strictly prohibited the people of the Cao Family Trading Company from engaging in close combat with the enemy. This would only waste some ammunition. Expensive with the soldiers
Compared with the blood money, this money is nothing. The soldiers are also very grateful to the Cao Family Trading Company, because the trading company really thinks about them. Now many soldiers remember what Li Cong said, use 100 pills
A grenade exchanges a soldier's life. This is nothing. 100 grenades are worth 5,000 taels of silver on this planet. Such a sum is not small for anyone. These people are also grateful, precisely because it is
In this way, their sense of belonging to the army will be very strong. Each of these people is working hard.
The Prince Consort of the Eastern Empire didn't know what to do at this time. In fact, he had nothing to do now. Only three of the dozens of generals under his command were here. The others were not given to him by his subordinates.
If you kill them, you will be killed by the people from the Cao Family Trading Company. Otherwise, the remaining few will find a place to hide on their own. They are not fools. If this continues, what are they looking for death? These people
They are all people with brains. They may not be very good at doing things, but there is absolutely no problem with running away. These people are very good at running away, and sometimes they can do things so fast.
, then it’s probably time to be greedy for money. Now they are all worried about their own lives, but they don’t have that idea anymore. What the Prince Consort wants to know most now is the Cao Family Trading Company’s prisoner policy, because when he just wanted to get on the horse
There were grenades thrown over there, and the horses immediately ran away. The soldiers from the Cao Family Trading Company over there were shouting "Kneel down and surrender." This guy here didn't think anything, and immediately knelt down. At this time
But I will never think about that damn hereditary title. This is simply the rhythm of seeking death. What hereditary thing. If I could change it in ancient times, I would not want the title I have, as long as it can keep me alive.
Why was I blinded by lard in the beginning? Why did I want that hereditary title? Do I really have that destiny? It can be said that at the beginning, I really thought that I had that destiny. Look at the capital
How many people here thought about having such an opportunity, but those people didn't have the chance, but I was different. As soon as I arrived at the front line, His Majesty the Emperor's order came over, and I just cooperated and didn't work hard.
Yes, besides, I will not go to the front line to fight. Those who died will be those under my command. Those people are some untouchables. If they die, the empire will just give them a little money. Tens of millions of lives will be lost.
It is very normal to dye one's red hat red. I also know that there is no problem with this matter. In the past, it may not have been possible, but now for the sake of my hereditary title, it is not impossible.
These were all my thoughts before. Now I realize that I was really wrong, and it was so wrong. Why did I do that? These soldiers also know what their status is.
, they don’t want to go, they won’t be a stepping stone for you, and that’s not all, just when they were making trouble, the people from the Cao Family Trading Company came, what a coincidence, what a coincidence.
Is it possible that I didn’t tip off the people from the Cao Family Trading Company internally? It’s simply impossible. Each of these people has their own ideas. Now that it’s over, these damn guys will definitely be very proud.
Well, when the Prince Consort looked at the people around him and wanted to see who was the one who betrayed him, the soldiers from the Cao Family Trading Company came over. They didn’t care whether you were a general or not.
The foot was passed. The pampered prince-in-law had never been subjected to this before. He was about to scream immediately. But seeing that all his own soldiers were being detained, he had no idea. Damn it, don't expose it.
He is still alive, but if he is exposed, he doesn't know what his fate will be.
The first stage of the attack can basically be said to be over. At this time, about one-third of the East Emperor's army camp, which stretches for hundreds of miles, has been occupied by the Cao Family Trading Company. Now the second stage is
A small group of troops began to sweep away. These people are not that easy to deal with, but Li Li already has other ideas. All of these people want to rush to the territory of the Northern Empire. Why don't you open the road and let them in?
Well, let's see what these defeated soldiers can do. They definitely don't have much money on them, so they will inevitably do some outrageous things when doing things. These people will definitely burn, kill and loot everywhere.
Yes, even the local army of the Northern Empire will not know what to do if they really kill the soldiers of the Eastern Empire. There are some things above that are not easy to explain. If this goes wrong, it will cause conflict between the two empires.
There is a war between the two countries. Sometimes things happen like this. Sometimes a big war is caused like this. Drive the tiger and devour the wolf. This is what the little guy Li Li thought of at this time. Tens of millions of dollars are worth it.
The defeated troops were definitely enough to make the people of the Northern Empire drink a pot. Li Li's second order was that all the troops should be organized into companies and platoons to start a war cleanup. No enemy could be let go. Of course. There will be more later.
There is a hidden order, that is, no one should be left alive. Only such an iron-blooded policy will make the Eastern Empire's army run with all its strength. Of course, there will also be some valuable things in the army. For example, these horses and tents
And so on. These things are very good. If you don't take these things back, you will be very sorry for yourself. We are not in the habit of robbing the people, but robbing our enemies, and they are defeated enemies.
, This is a very easy thing for us. At the beginning of the Eastern Empire's army, there were indeed many people who wanted to surrender, but soon they knew the policy of the Cao Family Trading Company. These people were simply
Crazy, they don’t take prisoners. This is unacceptable to them. If they don’t take prisoners on the battlefield, they will kill all the other party’s people. They know that they have only one way, and if they go south, they
Entering the Warcraft Mountains, even if they are all troops, there are many people, but after entering, they are probably just a drop in the ocean. There will definitely not be any bubbles. The Warcraft in the Warcraft Mountains will definitely eat nothing of themselves.
For the rest, no one is willing to do such a thing, unless they are all fifth-level warriors, so it is possible to cross the Warcraft Mountains and return to their hometown. The other is to go north and enter the Northern Empire.
Within the territory, there is no other way to go. The Northern Empire is more or less their ally. Although there have been conflicts in the past, isn't the biggest enemy now the Cao Family Trading Company?
If the Cao Family Trading Company belongs to them, they may still be the enemy. Naturally, they were not allowed to enter at that time, but it is different now. We are all allies, and they will take care of us. Besides, the Cao Family Trading Company
But there is no war with the Northern Empire. As long as we can run in, no one will do anything to us. It is definitely possible. When these people think of this, they don’t think about anything, and they swarm towards the Northern Empire.
Some cities rushed over.
Although the Northern Empire's army had already imposed martial law on the fighting area at the beginning of the war, it was not that serious. The Eastern Empire's army would still come frequently to buy some things. These from the Northern Empire
The generals are not fools. Anyway, you have come all the way here. You need to buy some supplies from us. The price must be higher. This amount of money is what they see.
Well, the people in the Eastern Empire really didn't take it seriously. After all, the Eastern Empire was much richer than the people in the Northern Empire. For this reason, the number of troops in the border areas was only a few hundred thousand.
, and they all went to attack, how could they be beaten back by the Cao Family Trading Company? The news they received was that the Cao Family Trading Company's army only numbered more than one million, and these several Eastern Empire soldiers
The army used to be at least 30 million. If something happened, it would be a fatal thing for the people of the Cao Family Trading Company just to capture prisoners, so they would never worry about the Cao Family Trading Company's army coming here.
, but today when they got up, they felt that their eyelids were always twitching. Lang Feng was a Qian Boss of the Northern Empire, and the Qian Biaokou people under him had been receiving a lot of blows from these East Emperor troops recently.
To get some money from them, no matter what I buy, I will satisfy them, but I have to add half of the price. Today, he is still thinking about whether the Eastern Empire general who traded with him wants to buy something else.
As for things, these generals of the Eastern Empire are just as at home on the battlefield. They are basically pampered. No matter what they are, they cannot be scrapped. They must be the best. The cities in this border area are not very big.
Yes, I gave him the best things I had collected. If it weren’t for the sake of money, I wouldn’t serve that guy. Now when he got up, he felt something was wrong. Although the previous
There would also be thick smoke over there at that time, because everyone knew that the Cao Family Trading Company's army used artillery when attacking. But was the smoke a little bigger today? Just when he wanted to ask the scout
Not far away, I saw my scout beating his horse like crazy and heading here. This bastard is seeking death. The horses of the scouts are the best. Damn it, usually.
I would be heartbroken if I lost a horse. Your style of play will drive the horse crazy. How can you do anything like this? This guy is going to go up and scold this guy for a while.
Just when he was about to open his mouth, he saw an extra layer of black lines in the distance. The general was dumbfounded, what's going on? Why are all the people from the Eastern Empire coming here? Are they going to attack us?
The lookout post at the military camp immediately blew the emergency horn. Hundreds of thousands of troops immediately entered the front line. But when they were ready for battle, everyone was dumbfounded. How could this happen?
What about the situation? Where did these people come from? How could these people start attacking our defense line? There are probably too many people here. They are hundreds of times more than what they have here. These hundreds of thousands of thermal energy defense
Live them? It seems like a bit of a joke. This and that are absolutely impossible. These people's calves are a bit trembling. Besides, can they shoot arrows?
"Damn it, you bastards, what are you still doing? Fight me. Give me everything you can use. Have you seen how many of them there are? If you don't fight them back, just stamp on them.
They can trample us to death. These people have already broken down. They will not stop without blood. We have less than 500,000 people. If they come to attack, they will overwhelm us. Beat us.
"A sixth-level warrior is their top commander here. This guy made a prompt decision and immediately launched a magic arrow. This was released by him. It was a fire-attribute magic arrow. Because of the distance,
There are still tens of thousands of meters, so people like this can make some attacks. This magic arrow is also the most powerful one purchased from Cao's Trading Company. It flies out like a fire dragon, and everything along the way is burning.
, that is, this magic arrow worth five million taels of silver started the clarion call for battle. Since the boss said so, the people below will naturally not be idle. The trebuchets and bows and arrows began to move towards the distant place.
The troops of the Eastern Empire have arrived. If the people from the Cao Family Trading Company see it, they will definitely clap their hands and make friends. Damn it, it turns out that besides us, there are still people who are so powerful. Our first wave can kill
Just kill so many of them. The abilities of these people are definitely great. I am surprised by what these people do. If they hadn't burst out with such enthusiasm before they died, who would have believed that this was the Northern Empire.
As for the army, in five minutes, the defeated Eastern Empire's army suffered more than 200,000 casualties, but their total number was tens of millions. These people couldn't stop at all, and the people behind them didn't even know it.
What's going on? They just know that they have to run quickly. Otherwise, if the people from the Cao Family Trading Company behind them catch them, they will kill them. Those people from the Cao Family Trading Company have already said,
They don't want to take prisoners. The only way out for people like them is in front of them. Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, they have to get through, right? Many people have said that they want to go back and fight with the people of Cao's Trading Company, but they leave
None of them came back after they got there. What does this mean? It means that it is a place where it is impossible to come back, so their way out is in front of these people, and only these people can save themselves. What at this time?
Don't say words like allies. We don't need such allies. When they want to come to the Northern Empire, these people should quickly make way for them to come in, but the generals of the Northern Empire immediately saw it.
These people are not the army. If there is an established army, it will be okay to let them in, because it will not cause any chaos. But these people are all defeated troops. If the army does not have an established army, they belong to some bandits. These people are all
It would be really hard for the people if all of them came in. I usually did a lot of bullying and other things, but the nature of these people was completely different. If these people came in, these people would be in trouble.
It is hard to say whether they will survive or not. It may leave no one alive in their family, so the soldiers of the Northern Empire must not let them in. The Northern Empire has less than three million people in the border areas.
It seems that it is impossible for the army to stop them. They may not be able to deal with the soldiers of the Cao Family Trading Company. But if they fight with the army of the Northern Empire, they may still win. After all, this is a person who can survive.
Opportunities, they will not give up this opportunity, they must fight for it, otherwise their only way to go in the future is to go to Fengdu City.
The counties and cities near the empire were immediately dumbfounded. How could such a thing happen? You must know that most of their cities have 100,000 people, and the few have less than 30,000 people. The front line of defense has hundreds of thousands of people.
It is definitely not of much use. They all know very well that people will definitely have other ideas if they get to the last moment. They also understand that it is absolutely impossible for these people to reason with them.
, they are just a group of bandits now, and what you did in the past was your own business. If there was no such thing, there would be no need to understand these things. In the future, it will be up to you to think about it, but now
There are also some unusual things that happened, that is, I don’t know how the news came in so early. The rich people in the city began to pack their things and prepare to leave, but at this time, the airships in the city refused to pick up anyone.
Well, some of the financial affairs of the Cao Family Trading Company also need to be transferred. The airship transfer is not enough for them. How can it be used to transfer these rich people? Of course, there will still be one or two airships that can be used.
, but we have sacrificed some of our own things to squeeze this out. The price is naturally very expensive. For example, in the past, it cost only 20,000 silver at most to go to the provincial capital. Now it costs at least twice as much.
, it also depends on whether you had a good relationship with our Cao's Trading Company in the past. If the relationship is not so good, then I'm sorry. You have to pay twice as much. Cao's Trading Company
This method is also explained above. In fact, according to the original price, many people can leave, but it is not necessary, right? In fact, there are only a few people in the city who have money, between 20,000 and 200,000.
For them, it’s just a number. As long as they can survive, they will pay for it. But in the past, they had to take ten people with them. Now they don’t take anyone with them, so they just take their own people.
, and at this time, they should also understand that if they miss this opportunity, it is absolutely impossible to escape with your carriage or something. The defeated troops of the Eastern Empire can run much faster than you.
Well, if they catch up, this will be a lot of fun. Originally, if there was no chaos in the city, the people of the Northern Empire could still hold on for a while, but because the city is in chaos, they want to hold on.
It was impossible, even the city gates could not be closed. In the end, all the soldiers in the city joined the voyage. They all knew that it was impossible for their own people to stop these people, so they might as well do it themselves.
Just leave, otherwise there will be no benefit at all from staying. Of course, the Cao Family Trading Company also has its own friends, such as some people who usually make important contributions to the Cao Family Trading Company. These people are basically
You can board the airship without paying a penny. Didn’t you say that the Cao family business does not have an airship? This is what we got temporarily, right? What about us? For the sake of our friends, we throw away some property and so on.
That's a very normal thing. For our friends, it doesn't matter if we lose something. As long as our friends can enjoy this place, that's fine. As for other things, we won't consider it.
Those are things you should consider.
The use of grenades made the Cao Family Trading Company's firepower more powerful. Each of these people followed the orders from above and tirelessly pursued the Eastern Empire's army, even if they themselves couldn't move.
They also symbolically fire a few cannons at the land in front of them. This is not because they want to waste any artillery shells, but their officers tell them that what they want at this time is to attack the enemy and let them
They all know that this matter is not that simple. They have to know that the enemy behind them is determined to bite them, and some airships are also throwing bombs hard behind them. In fact, at this time, the airship can completely
Kill them on a large scale, but this guy Li Li doesn't want this to happen. In that case, these people may scatter and flee. In this case, there may be a lot less people, and these people may not be able to break the Northern Empire.
This is a good thing for the Eastern Empire and the Northern Empire. As long as it is good for you, it will be bad for the Cao family business. Such things are not allowed to happen. When the court of the Northern Empire knows about it three days later
When this news came, it was already a bowl. The good news is that the Cao Family Trading Company's troops did not continue to advance. They all stopped at the border area of the Northern Empire. They had no intention of continuing to attack and were waiting there honestly.
Now, but the huge bad news is that all the thirty-five counties and cities on the border have entered Jundu of the Eastern Empire. According to the people below, each of these people are like locusts, wherever they pass.
Basically, there is nothing. This kind of thing makes the Eastern Empire feel very shameless. The soldiers they sent out are all soldiers. Although they are old, weak and sick, they are all from the Eastern Empire after all.
How could the regular army be reduced to going to other people's territory to rob it? Such things make them feel very uncomfortable. The Northern Empire is not just uncomfortable. It is simply a disaster.
, it is said that millions of people have been killed, tens of millions of people have left their homes and become refugees, and many officials of the Northern Empire have also been killed. If you encounter them at the beginning
When the troops of the Northern Empire were fighting with the officials, all the defeated soldiers could hold back and not take action, but then they couldn't help it. If they didn't take action against them, these people would do it to them. In this way
They couldn't stand it anymore, so they launched an attack on these people. Anyway, killing one was killing, and killing two was killing. Since they were all the same, there was nothing to say. Just kill them. In the end,
He is whatever he looks like. Anyway, they don’t care much about this matter anymore. Sometimes they are helpless when something like this happens. Anything can happen on the battlefield. Originally, the senior officials of the Northern Empire
If you want to suppress this matter, as long as you don't publicize such things, some people in the country will not know about it, and it won't be a big deal in the end, but the people from Cao's Trading Company will be so kind.
Are you not allowed to publicize this matter? That is impossible. People from the intelligence department of the Cao Family Trading Company have already gone out to spread the news. What they said was even worse than the front line. The soldiers of the Eastern Empire were said to be
Everyone has become like an animal.
At the beginning, not many people believed this. After all, they still believed in what the court said. But now they all understand this matter. They all know clearly that this matter is true, because now
No one needs to say anything. Many people who escaped from the dozens of counties and cities in front of them all have a certain social status in the local area. Even after these people arrive in the interior of the Northern Empire, these people still have a certain social status.
My friends, what they say is definitely correct. In the beginning, there were only one or two people who said that, and the court could tell them not to speak, but as more and more people said this,
If so, how do we calculate this? Are these people going to stop talking? That is impossible. Soon some people in the Northern Empire were dissatisfied. What kind of ally is this? Why did they come to burn and kill on our own territory?
After looting, the people from the Cao Family Trading Company also bribed some literati from the Northern Empire. Each of these literati said they didn't like money. No matter what happened, they would not mess up, but in fact they were not.
That's the same thing. I didn't talk casually in the past because the money given to them was not enough. When the people from Cao's Commercial Bank gave them 100,000 silver, these people immediately stood up. What national justice?
What about national sovereignty, what about territorial integrity, what about the interests of the people, good guys, these are all coming out. These things are very important things. If these things are not done well, how can we protect them in the future?
Our own people, the threat from the Cao Family Trading Company is not small, but they have not come to rob our own people, and they have no great hatred towards our empire, but these so-called allies are different.
So many things have happened to them in such a short period of time. It's not just about our lives. We will be sorry if we don't kill them. The Northern Empire's court has no choice but to see this. The internal affairs of the Northern Empire's court
There are also many spokespersons for the Cao Family Trading Company. They also seized this opportunity to ask the Northern Empire's army to quickly solve this matter. The so-called solution naturally means annihilating these people. In fact, annihilating these people is very important to the Northern Empire.
It is very easy for the Empire, but these people are from the Eastern Empire. It depends on the owner to beat a dog. The naval battle with the Eastern Empire ended a while ago, but I suffered a lot of losses. The Eastern Empire
There haven't been many losses over there. If a war breaks out, we may not be able to withstand it. The Eastern Empire's overall national strength is much stronger than ours. No one knows who is afraid of wolves in the front and tigers in the back.
What to do? At this time, the Eastern Empire also hopes that the people in the Northern Empire can let these people go. Even if these people are not considered soldiers, they cannot be ignored. If this spreads out, the people in the Eastern Empire will
What happened to the soldiers? But at this time, some unharmonious things happened in the Eastern Empire. I really don’t know what to do about this matter. The people in the Eastern Empire also made a fuss. The Cao Family Trading Company
The news spread among the people was that the Northern Empire had betrayed the alliance and was working with the Cao Family Trading Company to encircle and suppress the Eastern Empire warriors. The people from the Cao Family Trading Company also said the same thing. It was originally all robbery.
The criminals have now become warriors.
Anyway, no one has verified this thing. Just listen to what we say. People in the Eastern Empire have become hostile to people in the Northern Empire, especially people in the Navy. Previously, it was because their senior officials were
Seeing the threat from the Cao Family Trading Company, they joined forces with the people here. However, the previous conflicts could not be covered up so easily. Li Cong said at the beginning that such an alliance would be the easiest to break. If
If nothing happens, everything is good, but if there is a defeat, everything will show up. There is nothing to say. The so-called alliance is sometimes used for betrayal. (To be continued...)
