What is war?

War is death!

War is destruction!

On the road leading to San Francisco, in addition to the mountains, there is also the "Fort Grant" built by the United States for more than 20 years. A fortress line of defense.

These fortification areas are the forefront of the U.S. military's resistance to imperial invasion. After the war broke out, the U.S. military continued to strengthen the fortresses and built a deep fortress line of defense. In order to defend against attacks from the air, each fortress installed a large number of 20 mm Or 30mm, and even a 37mm Gatling gun.

Grant Fortress is the last large fortress group entering the Great Valley, and it is also the largest single-seat fortress in the "Grant Fortress Group". In the artillery fortress, it is very scary, plus there is a huge tunnel system, and even a fortress that has always been considered impossible to capture.

Although a considerable part of the cannons in the fortress are modified from front-mounted Dahlgren cannons with rifled liners, their powerful power should not be underestimated.

In order to conquer this obstacle, Peng Guoliang even rushed to the front line while dispatching troops. After successively pulling out several small fortresses on the periphery, Fort George was finally exposed in front of the imperial army.

In the early morning, the world was shrouded in silence. Under the mountain, in several continuous trenches, under the moonlight, steel helmets reflected the moonlight like the bayonets on the ends of rifles. Under the helmets were excited faces. And nervous face.

When the battle is about to start, some people are excited, some people are nervous, and everyone has completely different performances.

Li Guoquan licked his lips, couldn't help but touched the blasting tube behind his back with his left hand, and then his eyes were fixed on the company commander standing in the attack position and looking at the top of the mountain, the company commander was holding a whistle in his mouth .

In front of the soldiers, there is a simple ladder every two feet, which is the ladder for attack.

"Check ammo, check equipment!"

Squad leaders and corporal leaders repeat the orders that have been repeated several times from time to time, check whether the ammunition is complete, 120 rounds of bullets and 4 grenades per person, check whether the bandages and gauze in the first aid kit are complete, and of course, check the contents of the bag. Compressed biscuits, water bottles, how long the battle will last on the battlefield, no one knows, but it can be a few hours, it may be a day, or even two days, compressed biscuits and water will support them to continue fighting.

While waiting anxiously, the soldiers of the cooking class carried hot bamboo baskets full of steamed buns the size of two fists. Steamed buns are the most convenient food on the battlefield. It is full of the aroma of meat buns.

"Hurry up, hurry up, freshly made big meat buns, brothers, take two first, eat as much as you can! Enough!"

The soldiers who were waiting to attack grabbed the buns one after another. Regardless of whether they were nervous or not, everyone grabbed the buns and gobbled them up.

It is delicious to eat the big meat stuffed buns wrapped with pork, but when eating the buns, someone couldn't help but say.

"It would be great if I could have another sip of hot soup!"

"If you can have some chili oil, that will be a fragrance..."

Although this battle is life or death, no one knows.

But when everyone was eating, they still didn't forget to imagine that there would be no food on the battlefield. Although their farewell banquet last night had beef, stewed chicken, and braised pork, everything was available, but now, this meal It seems a little monotonous.

“It would be nice to have a bowl of ramen!”

Before the war came, there was no longer the anticipation or anxiety of the past, and there were only various reactions, which might be normal or abnormal.

In the face of death, even a warrior will appear a little nervous.Some people couldn't eat any more after eating a few mouthfuls of steamed buns, some just managed to finish two buns, and some people packed the remaining buns into their bags after taking a bite.

Most of them are veterans, and sometimes, a steamed stuffed bun might save a life on the battlefield.

Half an hour later, at 4:10 in the morning, the sky was dark, and the phone rang in the trenches!

"Get ready, get ready, everyone..."

When the soldiers were lying on the edge of the trench, standing in front of the wooden ladder to attack, waiting for the final order, on the artillery position in the rear, there was also a scene in full swing.

"Tom!"

Accompanied by the sound of the bolt closing, the bores of the 240mm siege guns and 150mm long-range cannons of the Sixth and Ninth Artillery Divisions were closed. The slender barrels of the cannons pointed directly into the sky. 14.8 tons, with a range of 24.5 kilometers, it is the ground artillery with the longest range in the world.

Since the start of the war, this kind of long-range and powerful long-range heavy artillery has played a role beyond people's imagination in battle after battle-taking advantage of the ultra-long range of the Type 150 [-]mm heavy cannon. Twenty kilometers away, the US artillery in the fortress was destroyed by shelling, and after losing all the artillery, it was forced to surrender.

Now, in order to attack this last stumbling block, Peng Guoliang mobilized more than 96 [-]-type heavy cannons, which were almost all the heavy cannons in his hands.

The gunner pulling the gun rope on the position tied the gun rope around his hands. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the commander's small flag, waiting for the order to fire the gun. The officers behind the gun position turned their wrists to look at it from time to time. watch.

The air was so heavy at the last moment that it was almost suffocating!

At the same time, [-] kilometers away from the front line, on a temporarily laid railway branch line, a huge cannon was on the railway line, and the cannon on the box was adjusting its firing angle.

This is the secret weapon of the imperial military—the 305mm train gun, which was successfully developed six years ago. It can not only be used for coastal mobile fortification, but also a good player for attacking fortresses.Although the imperial army invested 240 mm and 305 mm siege guns, in order to ensure a smooth attack, Peng Guoliang transferred the most powerful train guns of the imperial army to destroy this stumbling block.

"Boom!"

Heavy artillery shells weighing 1000 pounds were slowly piled into the chamber under the push of an electric pusher, and then several silk-wrapped propellant packs were also stuffed in.While the gunners were loading ammunition, the artillery officer standing on the firing control platform continued to give orders to adjust the shooting angle. After the loading was completed, the slender barrel of the train gun slowly pointed at the dim light at an angle of 45 degrees. In the sky, the moonlight reflected on the muzzle with a cold luster...

Suddenly, as the phone rang, there was a roar from the gun emplacement.
