Lord of Industrialization

Chapter 624 Rapid Shooting!

Doss was so angry that several of the golden wine glasses in his hand were smashed.

The Griffin Knights and half of the Royal Knights were wiped out in one morning. This was an unprecedented defeat.

Not to mention the frightened infantry, who were in chaos outside the city.

"Rearrange the camp today and reorganize the team." Doss ordered in a deep voice, "Set out at dawn tomorrow morning, don't give them a chance to react."

"And!" Doss thought of someone, "That Baron Harry Potter provided false information to let him go on the road decently."

The news of the chaos in the Madeira Kingdom's army reached Eugene's desk, and someone advised him to take advantage of the chaos to attack now.

Eugene shook his head and said, "No, we have to defeat them head-on and understand their combat effectiveness at the same time."

He had some small ideas. It was good to defeat the enemy by beating the enemy down, but defeating the enemy in the front array could gain greater reputation.

Eugene's father was a famous commander of the Gaul Kingdom, and he wanted to make a career and surpass his father.

The battle report was delivered quickly. More than 20 people of the 3rd Cavalry Regiment were slightly injured in this battle. In the end, five people were seriously injured in the close combat with the iron cans, but no one died.

Eugene ordered to be vigilant to avoid the opponent's desperate sneak attack.

But the Madeira army did not have such combat power, and the rest of the day was spent in peace.

Before dawn the next day, Metzger checked the work of each post at the top of the mountain.

Yesterday, a wounded griffin knight made an emergency landing here and became a prisoner of their company.

In order not to expose the mine, Metzger had people tie the captives with ropes and let them down from the cliff at night.

As a result, the young captive thought that these pagans were going to hang him on the mountain and his legs were weak. When he went down to the foot of the mountain, he smelled of feces and urine, and was thrown into the river by the receiver to wash.

"The person who invented the egg can is really a genius." Krom regretted while opening the can, "Why didn't I think of it?"

He used a fork to fork out the twelve boiled eggs in the can, one for each person in the whole class.

There was still some brine in the jar. He sniffed it, covered it, and handed it to Zikker, saying, "Here, give it to your little lover to stew meat."

Zikker took the jar and put it beside him.

When they finished breakfast and came to the outpost to start the shift change, it was just dawn, and Metzger was already carefully observing the direction of the enemy in front of the telescope.

Metzger held a biscuit in his mouth and slowly swept the telescope.

"Report to the headquarters," he said, "There are a large number of people and horses moving in the woods ahead, and it is suspected that the enemy is moving out on a large scale."

The signalman who was about to hand over the shift immediately reported the situation.

Not long after, Eugene's voice of eating sounded in the communicator: "What's the situation now?"

Metzger went over and said, "I'm Metzger, reporting to the commander, I found a large number of birds flying in the woods to the west, ranging from west to east."

Eugene gulped down the instant noodle soup and said, "Understood, continue to observe."

As Metzger judged, the Madeira army was marching in the woods, and many people were yawning.

Yesterday, they were frightened by the defeat in front of them, and then they were busy all day changing the location of the camp. After finally having a meal and sleeping, they were woken up in the middle of the night to prepare for the expedition.

Many people were exhausted physically and mentally, dealing with today's tasks, praying to Mother Earth not to be chosen to test the enemy's defense line.

Attacking the enemy's defense position is not to rush up right away, you have to send the unlucky ones to test it first, and then attack in a big way after finding out the enemy's combat effectiveness and loopholes in the defense line.

Such things are only done by small nobles without backing. If they die, it's fine. If they win, they will have the capital to hug thighs.

Metzger has been standing behind the telescope, reporting the enemy's progress from time to time.

"The enemy has left the woods and is assembling a shield car."

"The enemy has a strange gun that is more than one and a half people long and is mounted on a shield car."

"Oh my god, what is that? Twelve guns that are one and a half people tall are assembled together?"

"The enemy has a small cannon like the gunpowder cannon of the Ghazi Empire."

The intelligence staff of the command center immediately found relevant content from the earlier military intelligence about the Ghazi Empire, and after verifying with Metzger, it was quickly sent to various departments.

The one and a half person tall is a gunpowder gun of the Ghazi Empire. Frederick called it a lifting gun. The bullet is as big as an egg, with an effective range of three to five hundred meters and a firing rate of about one round every three minutes.

The small cannon should be the "apple cannon", named after the shell is as big as an apple, with an effective range of six to eight hundred meters, and still has considerable lethality at one thousand meters.

These two weapons have appeared in the army of the Kingdom of Gaul, and caused considerable losses to Archduke Suarez when they first appeared.

According to Metzger's estimation, the enemy had about 500 rifles and 30 apple cannons. Judging from their clothes and flags, they should be elite troops such as the Royal Guards.

Eugene thought about it and ordered Metzger: "Metzger, from now on, you will command the artillery and rocket launchers. Find where they store gunpowder."

The Wesson Army is a veteran in this business and knows very well how to surprise the enemy.

Metzger replied: "Yes, I will command the artillery to destroy the enemy's gunpowder as soon as possible."

Eugene continued to give orders to his subordinates and get ready.

Metzger continued to report the number of enemies, about 30,000 combat soldiers, followed by 60,000 to 70,000 peasant soldiers.

"God of Light!" Metzger suddenly shouted, "How did they get four big guys!"

Eugene was arranging defense matters and immediately asked: "Metzger, what big guys?"

Metzger replied immediately that the intelligence staff had found relevant data.

The "rooster cannon" of the Ghazi Empire can fit a rooster in the barrel, with an effective range of 2,000 to 2,500 meters.

Eugene just asked Metzger to focus on it.

At this time, Mary contacted Eugene and asked about the battle situation.

Eugene said that the enemy was approaching the position and there was no exchange of fire.

Mary said that the new army of Osmaga was ready and could attack the flank of the Madeira army if necessary.

The two sides kept in touch.

The Madeira army organized its troops on the east side of the woods and began to head towards the defense line of the Wesson army.

Doss, wearing a set of golden armor, sat on a tall horse, full of confidence.

Not only did he have a large number of people, but he also had new weapons supported by the Kingdom of Gaul, and he would definitely be able to get back in the next battle.

The army stopped one kilometer in front of the spit-out bunker. Doss's requirements were not high. Today, he only needed to blow up the bunker and take that piece of high ground.

All the artillery pieces in the army were arranged in front, with spearmen protecting the front, the two wings were the most capable nobles, and the rear was the mage group.

Doss intended to let those nobles who were usually unruly have a good look at the power of artillery and deter the restless guys.

After the artillery positions were arranged, the group came behind the four largest rooster cannons.

At this time, Doss heard two groups of people arguing.

Doss went over and asked, "What's going on?"

A little baron talked a lot, and Doss understood.

The instructors sent by the Kingdom of Gaul asked to disperse the gunpowder, but the officers of the Madeira Guards felt that they had to run a long way and it was too troublesome.

Doss thought about it, and then said to the Gaul instructors, "It doesn't matter. The Wesson Army doesn't know how powerful we are. If you feel tired, you can go back to the castle for tea."

The Gaul instructors looked at each other, feeling like they were tying themselves up in a cocoon.

At first, they said that the Wesson Army's guns were powerful, but the short barrels were not as powerful as the muskets, let alone the artillery.

Doss believed it after seeing the power comparison between the muskets and the Wesson Principality's foreign trade folding shotguns, and was full of confidence at this time.

What else can the instructors say? Let's go.

At this time, Metzger asked Eugene after reporting the discovery of the enemy's gunpowder storage point: "Commander, do you want to play a big game?"

Eugene thought he was going to light a big firework, and he had to ask for instructions for such a small matter, so he said unhappily: "Now all the artillery is under your command, you can play it as you like."

"When the gunpowder explodes, I will let the 33rd Regiment launch a charge in the chaos, and you guide the artillery to provide fire support."

Metzger carefully observed the golden armor behind the enemy's artillery position through a telescope, thinking that since Eugene said so, he would give an order: "Miss Qiwu's troops pay attention, Miss Feitian's troops pay attention, target 100 horizontal bar 86 area, all firepower rapid fire, one base number!"

He repeated it three times.

The Wesson Army had divided the various areas in front of the position, and the artillery and rocket launchers had already set the firing parameters. The firing data could be obtained by directly looking up the table.

Eugene arranged the 33rd Regiment to prepare for an opportunity to launch a charge after a big explosion in the enemy position, and then asked Metzger: "Why do we have to fire so many bases?"

He felt that it was just to detonate the gunpowder, and two or three shots would be enough.

The shells were transported from a long distance, so they had to be saved.

Metzger replied: "If I observe correctly, the king on the opposite side is next to the gunpowder barrel behind the artillery position."

Eugene was stunned for a moment, and only came back to his senses when the cannon sounded, remembering that Metzger had a nickname of "Emperor Killer" and had been specializing in killing powerful targets since his debut.

At this time, there was a thunderous muffled sound outside, and the coffee in the cup shook slightly.

Both sides saw that after a loud bang, a huge white smoke rushed into the sky.

Eugene immediately yelled into the communicator: "[Gallic swear words]! Pig killer, report the situation quickly!"

He was born in the upper class of the nobility, and he knew what it meant to kill the other king, so he had to get the intelligence as soon as possible.

Metzger replied: "There is too much smoke at the explosion site, and the shelling has not stopped, so it is not clear."

"Many people and horses fell around, and many people began to flee."

Eugene could not care so much, and immediately ordered: "Quick, 33rd Regiment, Cavalry Regiment, chase them all who can move, until the edge of the woods!"

Chief of Staff Erich asked: "Why not wipe them out in one go?"

Eugene shook his head and said: "The number of enemies is still too large. If the elite troops hold their ground, there will be trouble."

"Prepare to implement the third set of combat plans."

Erich's eyes lit up, this plan is good.
