Chapter 455 The Grim Reaper Over Sedang (Fourth Update, Please Subscribe)
"The appearance of the airship made war so terrible. From then on, any country will be cautious about going to war again."

That's what many witnesses told reporters after Buenos Aires was "flattened" by bombs.

According to journalists, diplomats and expatriates, airships are powerful and can bring devastating blows.

But in August 1870, no Europeans believed that the airship would fly to Europe, and it is unimaginable that the airship really flew!

Flying from the New World!
On September 9, there were so many white clouds floating in the clear sky, and the sky was blue and clear.

Sparrows were chirping loudly over the woods, swallows were flying, and there was a choking smell in the air.

In the open area outside the city of Sedan, tens of thousands of Prussian soldiers have assembled, and they are ready to go, preparing for the final battle against the French!
Prince George from Saxony watched the city with a proud expression.

"Under such artillery fire, no one can persevere!"

On his side is the Prussian Sixth Army, and the commander of the Sixth Army Tumplinger is standing beside him.

"Your Highness, I think we will be able to enter the city of Sedang soon!"

Tumplinger's peripheral vision fell on his soldiers. Those soldiers were all high-spirited and waiting to enter the battlefield. Even death could not stop their attack.These people joined the army under the inspiration of patriotic beliefs. Although they knew that they were likely to die, they still came to the battlefield without hesitation.

"The whole of Germany is watching us!"

As the Sixth Army led by Prince George was preparing for the final attack, what they didn't know was that someone was watching them.

"Sir, in the southwest of Sedang City, a large enemy army was found, completely exposed in the wilderness!"

The observer's shout interrupted Li Du's thoughts, and he immediately took a telescope to observe the distant target. For them in the sky, everything on the earth was presented in front of their eyes.

"Sir, you see that there is an artillery position, and there, and..."

The army of this era has no sense of camouflage at all. After all, before this, they have never considered the threat from the air, but now?Hundreds of thousands of North German allied troops appeared naked in front of their eyes like a woman stripped off her skirt.This woman was teasing them wildly, waiting for them to deliver the fatal blow.

"Scatter!"

Look at the location marked on the map, and then look at the targets on the ground.Li Du said.

"The First Battalion and Second Battalion are responsible for attacking the assembled German troops on the ground. The Third, Fourth, and Fifth Battalions are responsible for attacking the artillery positions on the northern flank, and the Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Battalions are responsible for attacking the artillery artillery positions on the southern flank..."

After giving the order to other airships through the blackboard, Li Du stared at the unobstructed target on the ground and sneered.

"This time, we're going to give them a one-pot meal!"

If you meet such a suitable target, if you don't give them a pot, you will really be sorry to God.

Staring at the exposed German army, Ma Guangming shouted loudly.

"How about it, did you aim?"

The gunner in the cabin immediately replied loudly.

"Aim!"

In front of the gunner is a 30mm Gatling cannon fixed in the cabin. It is the latest weapon of the Nanhua Arsenal. Compared with the 20mm cannon, it is not only more powerful, but also has a faster rate of fire.

"Can you fire?"

"can!"

"let's hit!"

With an order, the gunner pressed the button, and amidst the sound of the motor turning, the barrel of the Gatling cannon turned, and in an instant, the sound of the cannon sounded in the cabin.Unlike the hand-operated cannons of the past, its cannon sound is continuous, which sounds like the sound of a chainsaw.

"God bless, let us come back alive!"

Like everyone else, even as the chancellor's son, Herbert von Bismarck, an infantry captain, prayed for his survival before going into battle.

Just when he was about to mobilize the officers and soldiers in the battalion while he was praying, he heard a whistling sound from the air.

What's the sound?
Herbert von Bismarck looked towards the sky with some doubts. There seemed to be nothing in the sky, but the sound clearly came from the sky.

"Sir, what's that sound?"

Not only Herbert, but also other people, the soldiers and officers all looked towards the sky, and even His Royal Highness, who was riding on a horse, also turned his gaze to the sky.

"The airship is coming, the airship is coming..."

On the ground, the messengers were running on galloping fast horses while shouting.Suddenly, he reined in the horse sharply.

explosion!

Presented in front of his eyes was a dense cloud of explosion smoke and flying limbs, everything seemed to have turned red.

All this happened in an instant. When the Prussian officers and soldiers looked up to find the source of the sound, 30mm artillery shells fell from the sky like raindrops. The shells broke their bodies and shattered their bodies into two pieces. At the same time, they exploded violently. In the middle, the shrapnel flying horizontally reaped human lives recklessly.

The 30mm grenade is a new type of projectile developed by Nanhua on the basis of absorbing the experience of the Parana naval battle. In order to increase its power, its projectile body adopts stamping forming technology. During the stamping process, grooves are processed on the inside of the projectile body to make it Become a semi-prefabricated fragment with a charge of up to 40 grams.Due to the increased amount of charge, when it explodes, not only can it cause greater damage to the wooden ship, but it can also kill and kill.

Now the artillery shells falling from the sky use kinetic energy to tear apart the bodies of the German soldiers assembled on the ground, and at the same time, the violent explosion covers the entire open area, like thousands of grenades, enveloping everyone in the blink of an eye .

For a time, this open area completely turned into hell. The violent explosion of the 30MM grenade blew up those German soldiers who hadn't recovered. Red, the body torn apart by the shell was blown away by the shock wave of the explosion, and the red flesh was flying in the air.

The tens of thousands of German troops who had assembled outside the city to prepare for the attack had completely become targets. They were almost motionless enjoying the baptism of shells. In less than a minute, tens of thousands of shells poured on them. body.

The lethality of tens of thousands of small shells similar to hand grenades exploded in the crowd was extremely astonishing, but it was only a momentary effort. Tens of thousands of German troops in the wilderness were shrouded in a deathly rain of steel. In the explosion, the wilderness was full of red...
