I Can Really Fire a Map Cannon - Chapter 330
In the Eighteen Cities, the news that Ming Lan was attacked and arrested quickly spread.
Zhou Ping made such a big noise and killed dozens of Minglan’s guards. This news could not be concealed. The seven brigade commanders and the mayor of City No. 18 all came to the scene.
The tragic scene at the scene shocked them all.
They don’t know why Ming Lan came here, but with so many guards, Ming Lan was still taken away. The strength of the person who caught Ming Lan can be imagined.
Especially after they knew that these guards were all awakened people, it was even more shocking.
According to the narration of the survivors at the scene, there was only one person who took Ming Lan away, no more than two at most. Many people didn’t even see what the other party looked like, so Ming Lan was taken away.
So few people killed so many awakened ones, and also took away Ming Lan, who was heavily protected?
What kind of person has such a powerful strength.
Ming Huang, the mayor of City No. 18, immediately reported the matter to the headquarters after learning about the situation. As the chief of the general staff, Ming Lan is also the commander-in-chief of the front line. Her arrest is a major event and must be reported.
Ming Family Headquarters, because Ming Lan was arrested, was also a mess.
Ming Huang was ordered in danger and temporarily became the commander-in-chief of the front line. This decision made Ming Huang secretly bitter.
He is just a mayor. Although City No. 18 originally had an army and was under his management, he had never led an army to fight, unlike Ming Lan, who had always been on the front line before.
Ordinary management is no problem, but in order to command these seven brigades and the crossing battalion, Ming Huang has no confidence at all.
He had to listen to the family’s orders. On the one hand, he ordered the seven brigades to strengthen protection, and sent more people and aircraft to go out to inquire about the news. On the other hand, he also implored the family headquarters to send a more suitable commander as soon as possible.
In normal times, there are seven brigades under his command, and Ming Huang is of course doing his part.
But now is the time of war, and it is impossible for his seven brigades to conquer the thirteenth city. Ming Huang is really afraid that the family headquarters will desperately want him to recover the city.
In that case, it is impossible for him to complete the task at all.
It can be said that with only seven brigades, no matter who is the commander-in-chief now, it is a hot potato, and no one is willing to take over.
Although Ming Huang’s ability is average, their exploration is still very successful.
It didn’t take long for Ming Huang to receive a report from the front line. There was another large-scale dispatch from the Crossing Battalion, obviously aimed at City No. 18.
Crossing the battalion took the initiative to attack, it must be because of Ming Lan’s arrest, and I don’t know how much useful information Ming Lan has leaked.
But at this time, Ming Huang was too late to do anything, and he didn’t have time to make large-scale adjustments. He could only organize the four brigades outside the city and prepare to block the attack of the crossing battalion.
He Jie led three regiments and marched all the way.
Especially the Second Regiment, whose combat effectiveness was stronger than that of the Fifth and Sixth Regiments, was placed at the top by He Jie. He Jie also wanted to use the Second Regiment to make a good start, and then give the opponent a heavy punch.
City No. 13 is busy now.
Sister Jing was busy with her feet not touching the ground. Many weapons originally stored in the warehouse were removed, including the individual air defense missiles brought back by the earth.
This time, in order to attack the No. 18 city and prevent the opponent’s armed aircraft from causing serious damage to the crossing battalion, half of the survival brought by the earth was taken out.
Siege is different from defense.
The city itself has an air defense system. When attacking a city, it cannot use these forces. On the contrary, it is necessary to worry about the opponent’s air defense missiles, and the individual equipment brought by the earth. Now is not the time to save.
Moreover, after they finished fighting, they could ask Zhou Ping to start the return at any time, and they could bring a lot of such weapons at that time.
Lan Wei was not idle either. He Jie had already led the team to set off. He wanted to stay in City No. 13 to command, especially to command the aviation brigade to cooperate with He Jie’s attack.
In addition, there is another regiment. The first regiment is also the main battle group. Even if there are fewer battalions, the combat power is not inferior to the fifth and sixth regiments.
This time, the time-travel battalion is equivalent to accumulating all the strength that he can currently use. This is the first battle in the strict sense of the time-travel battalion, so this battle can only be successful, not defeated.
Ming Huang has moved to a temporary command post.
Like Ming Lan, he is very secretive about his whereabouts. Even the seven brigade commanders don’t know where he is. Ming Lan was taken away in the city, which has already scared Ming Huang.
He was very afraid, and he would follow Ming Lan’s footsteps.
“Master, the Second Regiment is less than 300 kilometers away from City No. 18. Tomorrow, we can attack the two brigades outside City No. 18.”
In the underground bunker of City No. 13, Lan Wei looked at the holographic map and spoke slowly.
He Jie’s driving speed was very fast. The Second Regiment, Fifth Regiment and Sixth Regiment were the main attacking troops. After Fei Yuan’s Regiment arrived in City No. 18, it would be used as a reserve team.
A regiment’s combat effectiveness is very strong, and there is no problem in being a reserve team.
“Then attack tomorrow.”
Zhou Ping was also looking at the map. Although He Jie had never commanded a large-scale operation, his march this time was very well-organized, and he was not completely greedy for success.
The second regiment is right in front, but it has never been too far away from the fifth and sixth regiments.
In fact, everyone in the crossing battalion had no experience in commanding large-scale operations. Even if Lan Wei had been a soldier, he was just an ordinary soldier. They had previously commanded small-scale operations.
For example, the Revenant Hunter was used to train troops before, and that kind of battle was not a large-scale battle at all.
There are no armored vehicles and no armed aircraft.
This time, they took the initiative to attack City No. 18, which was also a big test for them.
“Tomorrow I will let the aviation group bomb and cooperate first, but unfortunately there is no heavy artillery.”
Lan Wei slapped his mouth. There are heavy artillery pieces in the thirteenth city, but they are all located on the city walls of the defending city, making it inconvenient to carry.
This time, the important thing is speed. When Ming Lan was caught and beaten, they were caught off guard. Naturally, such heavy artillery could not be carried to the battlefield for use.
They don’t have heavy artillery, but the other side does. This is the disadvantage of siege warfare.
At noon the next day, the second regiment led by He Jie arrived 30 kilometers away from City No. 18. The scouts in City No. 18 also discovered their existence, and they were all very nervous.
Ming Huang continued to issue orders, and the four brigades outside the city were all transferred to this direction for defense.
At this time, they can no longer be stationed separately. Stationing separately can prevent the other party’s large-scale bombing, but it is also very disadvantageous to their defense, and it is very easy to be defeated by others.
Ming Huang’s ability was revealed at this time. In fact, he didn’t have much commanding ability. If Ming Lan was replaced, he would definitely not fight to the death with the crossing camp in the wilderness.
If it was Ming Lan, she would concentrate all the soldiers in the city, and use the city’s powerful defense system to cause huge casualties to the opponent as much as possible.
Outside the No. 18 city, the soldiers of the four brigades have been arranged in place, and three lines of defense are formed outside the No. 18 city.
But the hearts of these soldiers were very uneasy, they already knew that the crossing camp was about to come.
When they were here before, they knew that they were going to fight against the crossing camp. It was no secret that the crossing camp were all awakened people. Everyone knew it, and they were worried at that time.
They are just ordinary people, but they have to fight against the legion formed by the Awakened. Can they win?
Almost all soldiers have little confidence.
Valley
In particular, the Eighteenth City suffered several attacks by the crossing battalion, once they blew up a brigade themselves, and once were poisoned by the other party and killed four soldiers of the brigades.
Before the official battle, they lost a full five brigades.
They did not know that the two brigades sent out were also destroyed, otherwise they would be more worried.
Now that they have only seven brigades, will they be able to hold back a massive attack from the crossing battalion?
Even those brigade commanders didn’t have much confidence.
It is one thing to have confidence, but it is another thing to face it. Although several brigade commanders know that it is difficult for them to win, they must obey the military order.
Otherwise, there is no need to cross the camp, and the Ming family will deal with them.
Don’t look at them all from the Ming family, but it really delays the battlefield, and the Ming family will never be lenient when they execute them.
He Jie led the second regiment and approached the first line of defense.
This world has been at peace for too long. Although there is a war going on in City No. 55, the Ming soldiers here have not really experienced the baptism of war.
Like the crossing camp, they were all recruits.
Only those who have been baptized on the battlefield can be called veterans and true warriors.
“Is Metal Storm in place?”
The brigade commander of the Ming family’s 77th brigade said clearly that he was patrolling the defense line and kept asking the chief of staff around him.
“The four metal storms are already in place, brigade commander, don’t worry, even if the crossing battalion is awakened, it will not be able to stop the attack of these metal storms.”
The chief of staff hurriedly said, Metal Storm is an automatic small artillery.
Although the shells are not big, their power is not small. The most important thing is that each Metal Storm has 120 barrels, and when the rate of fire is the fastest, it can reach tens of thousands of shells per minute.
And the range is very long, even if there are many enemies, as long as the metal storm fires, the opponent will be torn to pieces.
It can be said that Metal Storm is a meat grinder on the battlefield.
Not every brigade of the Ming family has such weapons. The existence of the 77th brigade as the first line of defense will have such weapons, and they will be given four directly.
Separately arranged metal storms can effectively block the enemy and cause huge damage to the enemy.
“We can’t take it lightly, our opponents are not ordinary people.”
Ming Yan quickly said that the four Metal Storms comforted him somewhat. He also believed that even if the opponents were all Awakened, they would not be able to break through such a line of defense.
But since the Ming family and Chuanying had a bad relationship, they had never taken advantage of it, which made his heart even more uneasy.
“You can rest assured, brigade commander, this is not one-on-one. On this battlefield, the abilities of the Awakened are limited. I believe they will definitely break through our line of defense.”
The chief of staff assured there again. The chief of staff’s words seemed to give Mingyan some confidence, and Mingyan did not speak again.
Neither of them knew that an invisible traverser was near them and was investigating everything about them. This time the traversal battalion took the initiative to attack, and He Jie used all his strength to deal with it.
The reconnaissance battalion, which has always been active on the front line, has been dispatched in full.
The abilities awakened by the reconnaissance battalion are all to facilitate reconnaissance and detection. Their abilities may not be enough to fight alone, but if they are only engaged in reconnaissance, the Ming family is far behind them.
“Four metal storms.”
He Jie, who was on the front line, received the report from the reconnaissance battalion, and his brows were tightly knit together.
There is also a metal storm crossing camp, but they are all on the city wall and are used to defend the city. This time, the troops did not carry it. Unexpectedly, the Ming family moved this weapon to the front line.
He Jie is very clear about the power of Metal Storm. With these four Metal Storms, they may not be able to break through this line of defense.
Even the first line of defense can’t be broken, let alone more people in the Ming family to be eliminated later.
“Senior He, let us dispatch the reconnaissance battalion and blow up all four of their metal storms.”
The commander of the reconnaissance battalion said something quickly, He Jie thought for a moment, and then shook his head: “No, the other party attaches great importance to these four Metal Storms, and they must be guarded by heavy troops. You can’t eat the reconnaissance battalion alone. .”
Although He Jie has no experience in leading large-scale troops, he also knows how much the other party attaches to these four Metal Storms.
It is very difficult to succeed in attacking rashly.
“How about sending the air group to bomb?”
Yang Zhigang, the head of the fifth regiment, said that the fifth and sixth regiments were still behind, but the heads of the regiments were summoned by He Jie for a meeting to discuss the following battle.
“No, the reconnaissance battalion reported that their metal storms are very deep, and it is difficult to bomb successfully.”
He Jie shook his head again, clearly stating that he attached great importance to these four Metal Storms. Air raids were taken into consideration when they were arranged, and deep pits were dug deliberately, only to rise to the ground when they were used.
“But we can’t stop there, this nail has to be pulled.”
Zhao Min, the head of the sixth regiment, followed up and said that he and Yang Zhigang were both members of the crossing camp later, but because of their good performance and organizational skills, they were all appointed as regiment leaders.
“I’ll think of a way.”
He Jie looked at the map in front of him and said slowly, these four Metal Storms must be destroyed in advance, otherwise they will cause great damage.
The strength of the crossing battalion can’t compare to the Ming family, let alone a one-to-one exchange, even a one-to-two.
According to the common discussion between He Jie and Lan Wei before, to fight against the Ming family through the camp, the casualty ratio should be controlled at one to ten.
In this way, crossing the camp can defeat the Ming family and truly occupy the city.
“Would you like to ask the head of the regiment to help us blow them up?”
Fei Yuan made a suggestion. The first regiment had already reunited with the main force, and he was also called to a meeting this time.
Fei Yuan is an old man. He knows Zhou Ping’s ability, and he can completely bomb the other side’s things.
“We can’t rely on our teachers at every turn, it’s better to let us figure it out ourselves.”
He Jie still shook his head, of course it was okay to ask Zhou Ping for help, but the other party was also preventing the large-scale bombing of the division commander, and the distance between the four metal storms was very long.
The bombing of the division commander can only blow up one at most.
And the bombing of the division commander has a time interval. After blowing up one, it will be difficult to blow up the others.
“Senior He, since their metal storm is now hidden underground, it is better to send out an earth element team and bury explosives for them directly underground.”
Yang Zhigang said again, in addition to the reconnaissance battalion and the special warfare company, the crossing battalion also has ten squads.
These ten teams are either elemental awakeners or rare awakeners, and each team has only a few people, only a dozen people, the maximum is not more than 20, and the minimum is only seven.
In this battle, these teams were also brought out by He Jie.
