In Shuo Sai's eyes, the most abominable weapon produced by the National Defense Force was not the muskets or artillery, but the endless barbed wire in front of him.
At first glance, this thing doesn't seem to be a threat and can only be stuck on the ground. But when you really face it, you realize how difficult it is.
The National Defense Force relied on this thing to block all the Qing army's attack methods.
Bagala, the pride of the Qing army, tried his best to cut down the barbed wire fence. The Qing army's arrogant cavalry and archery could not get past the barbed wire fence.
In short, unless the barbed wire fence is broken, there is no way to continue fighting with the National Defense Forces.
Shuosai urged the soldiers to clean up the barbed wire fence while cursing.
Where on earth did the National Defense Force get so much steel? Instead of using it to make guns and cannons, they made such disgusting barbed wire fences?
And how this thing was cast, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties used many methods to find out.
How did he know that through continuous foreign development, the empire had already mastered a steady stream of mineral resources.
Millions of tons of iron ore are transported from Jilin and Luzon every year.
This amount would be nothing in future generations. But in this era, it is the power to flatten the world.
A Bagala was shot seven times at the same time. His majestic body could not withstand the huge impact, and he fell backwards onto the barbed wire fence.
If the Wehrmacht's artillery had not blocked the subsequent troops, there would have been even more people rushing forward.
Now it's his turn, and he will definitely not be worse than the 8th Battalion.
Immediately, many people grabbed the dead bodies on the ground and threw them onto the barbed wire fence.
However, the eyes of the Qing soldiers who charged desperately turned into shock.
"Throw the dead body onto the barbed wire fence and crawl over it!"
It wasn't that the 8th Battalion didn't fire well, it was that they fired for too long and the barrels of their muskets were already hot.
Shuo Sai brandished his long sword.
The empire has even considered building new steel plants in Jilin, Luzon and other places. The ore will be excavated on site and smelted on site to improve efficiency.
However, the Qing soldiers did not realize there was anything wrong with this approach.
"The 8th Battalion retreats."
In a desperate situation, the Qing army did not collapse despite heavy casualties. Everyone gritted their teeth and used all their strength to open the passage for those behind.
The soldiers of the 8th Battalion were like target practice, following the instructions and projecting firepower on the Qing army again and again.
Even Duduo did not dare to let the Qing army sacrifice like this.
The soldiers of the 8th Battalion were extremely sorry when they heard the order.
Why didn't those Han people dare to fight him with swords?
However, Bagala's brave behavior still brought huge benefits to the Qing army.
Using steel to make barbed wire has no impact on the economy at all.
What you see in front of you is all your military exploits!
However, they also understood that if the fighting continued and the weapons were damaged, it would only be an advantage to the Qing army.
Because right across the street, the array transformation of thousands of people was completed in the blink of an eye.
Damn Han people, why don't they rush forward and fight?
He dared to fight with the group leader.
If we can rush forward and initiate hand-to-hand combat when the National Defense Forces change defense, then victory is not far away.
The 9th Battalion, which was rotated in place, was as fierce as the 8th Battalion.
Amidst the violent firestorm, Bagala, who had no physical strength, died in pieces.
But today, all their past efforts and all their pride have turned into smoke.
Shuo Sai hid among the soldiers and saw that the National Defense Forces on the opposite side were changing their formations, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
This was a battle destined to suffer heavy casualties for the Qing army.
Soon, the second group of troops sent by Duduo also rushed forward.
Fei Yunzhao, commander of the 36th Regiment, had to order a change of formation.
As long as they can defeat the enemy, they are willing to do anything.
As for how many Qing troops were killed, they could no longer count them.
Times have changed.
The efficiency of the Wehrmacht was very high. The 36th Regiment did not waste a moment and retreated as fast as it charged.
However, they broke through the barbed wire fence and forced the National Defense Forces to retreat. It was finally a great victory.
The 9th Battalion took over from the 8th Battalion.
The soldiers of the Qing army broke down layer after layer of barbed wire. They were exhausted, but they still felt that there was no end in sight.
Moreover, the Ninth Division's entanglement method was different from before, so they cut a section but suddenly found that it was still entangled with other sections, making it still difficult for them to move.
The Qing army, which had been beaten for a long time, was full of anger and immediately rushed toward the National Defense Forces through the breach, roaring.
His expression was full of unwillingness.
The layer upon layer of barbed wire finally showed a hole.
I had been standing behind and watching the excitement of the 8th Battalion, and it would be a lie to say I wasn't jealous.
But now there is no other way. Without breaking through the Ninth Division's obstruction, they will not be able to return home and eventually die in this foreign country.
Then there were some brave Bagaras who rushed forward on these dead bodies.
In front of the entire barbed wire array, the Qing army gathered nearly 30,000 people.
In short, the Qing army could even use the corpses of their companions to resist the muskets of the Wehrmacht.
If he were not a qualified soldier, he would have gone to the regimental commander to make trouble.
"Order the 36th Regiment to retreat to the designated location according to the established route."
The Qing soldiers who ran across the barbed wire fence had a look of astonishment on their faces, and all their strength was lost.
Sufficient resources allowed the empire to waste them with confidence, but it became a nightmare for the Qing army.
They continue to hone their martial arts, constantly improve their courage, and constantly learn various fighting techniques to turn themselves into the most powerful warriors in the world.
"Rush over and widen the gap."
Yu Lichun didn't care when he saw the Qing army rushing through the barbed wire fence and the cavalry following closely behind the infantry.
The barbs on the wire prevented him from falling down, causing him to still look straight ahead.
It was too late to continue breaking down the barbed wire fence. In the moment of anxiety, he thought of a cruel method.
If you continue to hit it, the chamber is likely to explode.
"Fire!"
The commander of the 9th Battalion, Han Lijing, was really happy.
At any time in the past, Shuo Sai would have ordered a retreat.
There were also some injuries that could not be treated at all. They all gritted their teeth and used their bodies to pull on the barbed wire, widening the gap.
Defense military technology told them...
Even though they were bleeding and injured, they didn't care at all.
Since the founding of the Later Jin Dynasty, these bagaras have been the aces in the charge and the main force in the Manchu Qing Dynasty winning wars one after another.
The morale of the Qing army was greatly boosted, and the infantry expanded to both sides to make way for the cavalry.
They firmly believed that without the help of barbed wire, the National Defense Forces would never be able to withstand the impact of the Eight Banners cavalry on this great plain.
They did not notice that when the 36th Regiment retreated rapidly, the 38th Regiment had already come up to them with four hollow formations.
The artillery pieces at the rear were all concentrated together, waiting for the Qing cavalry to enter the firing range.
