Chapter 483 Armored Soldiers, Offensive (First update, please subscribe)
The armored vehicles were driving in the wilderness. Although they were not four-wheel drive off-road vehicles, they were still running smoothly in the fields. Even if there were bushes and hedges, they could be easily smashed away.

According to Zhu Sihai's plan, a battalion took the initiative to attack and set up an ambush position on the only way the Prussian army must pass.His reason is very simple, that is, to use a battalion of motor vehicles as a fixed turret, and set up an ambush to actively attack to attract the attention of the Prussians. When their attention is attracted, he will lead three more battalions to attack from its flanks.

The target of the ambush was the Prussian soldiers, launching a surprise attack when they were unprepared, causing chaos, and then they killed and fished in troubled waters.

In fact, if possible, they would prefer to fight on the Pampas prairie, where there is no shelter, and armored vehicles can turn into cavalry and attack the enemy at will.But in northern France, there are bushes, hedges and villages and towns everywhere, and these obstacles seriously affect the mobility of the troops.

In fact, the First Cavalry Brigade is itself a unit with guns, but now the former guns have become armored vehicles, with greater mobility and more intense firepower.

"Sir, the Prussians are coming."

Even though he didn't use binoculars, Liang Chengwu, the machine gunner, still saw the Prussians. The dust raised by the mighty troops was very conspicuous.

"Pay attention to the signal!"

Zhao Quande's fifth company was placed on the westernmost side of the ambush position, which was the direction from which the Prussian army came.His ambush position was placed in a wood two kilometers away from the village, which was a must for the Prussians.The trees on the side of the road in this forest are very lush, and there are several shrubs and grasses. This is a natural ambush position. They can clearly observe everything on the road, but the troops marching on the road can't find them at all. exist.

What's more, their armored vehicles are camouflaged, even if there are Prussian scouts passing by, they will not notice these haystacks, and who will notice how many haystacks?

ambush……

To ambush tens of thousands of troops, at least a few divisions must be deployed!

"Pay attention to concealment and let them pass."

Zhao Quande, holding a binoculars, looked towards the road.

The Prussian army had already appeared in his line of sight, and at the front was a group of sharp soldiers. They were searching around while advancing rapidly. The Prussians also sent cavalry troops on both sides, but they obviously did not expect that in those few fields The haystacks are the enemy, and most of their attention is now on the air. After all, for the Prussians, the airship is what scares them the most.

No one has any interest in these haystacks. It has nothing to do with luck. To put it bluntly, it is still conceited. Who would have thought that a dozen or so armored vehicles would dare to challenge the tens of thousands of Prussian troops?
Behind the outposts was a large group of infantry, marching forward neatly in a marching column, many Prussians even, Schneider found that there were many carriages and artillery carriages in this army, and the mighty troops crowded the entire road.The dust raised by men and horses even obscured their vision.

Prussians in Prussian blue uniforms and Prussian soldiers with pointed helmets gathered into a long blue dragon and marched on the road.The cavalry units on both sides of the road maintained vigilance, and their speed was neither fast nor slow on the two wings of the infantry.

This is a typical marching column of cavalry guarding infantry. For the marching column, the biggest threat is the enemy's cavalry. On the way of Napoleon's retreat from Moscow, the French army, which lost the protection of the cavalry, was hit hard by the Cossack cavalry again and again.

With the guard of the cavalry, when the enemy cavalry sneak attack with mobility, the cavalry on the two wings can directly meet and prevent them from attacking the infantry.

The Prussians' marching speed is very fast. This is also the greatest advantage of the Prussian army in many wars in the past. Through fast marching, they have repeatedly detoured to the enemy's rear and encircled the enemy. Only because of their high marching speed, they have won repeated battles.

This blue infantry unit appeared in Zhao Quande's field of vision in such a mighty way. Looking at the army in the dust, his eyes burst out with desire for battle.

Perhaps because the forward troops passed safely, this army was completely unaware. They just marched on the road swaggeringly, without anyone realizing that the danger had come.

"aim!"

Following Zhao Quande's order.

The machine gunner immediately raised the butt of the Gatling machine gun. He looked at the Prussian army in front of him and swallowed. As long as he fired a round of Gatling, he could kill at least a few hundred Prussian soldiers. Too dense, one bullet can even penetrate one after another, and then penetrate another.

"call!"

Taking a deep breath, Liang Chengwu tried his best to suppress the desire to fire in his heart. He was waiting for the order. Good hunters will never destroy their well-prepared traps.

In fact, the [-] armored vehicles were scattered on the long front of nearly two kilometers on the left side of the road, which is why the Prussians did not find them.Just a common haystack in the French countryside.

A few minutes later, when the enemy's front team was about to disappear out of sight, suddenly, there was a burst of gunfire in the distance.

"Fire!"

Without the company commander's order, Liang Chengwu pressed the button, the motor idling for nearly a breath, and suddenly gunshots rang out.

"Zi..."

The sound of gunfire is like the sound of cloth being torn apart. This is because its rate of fire is too fast, and the rate of fire of 2400 rounds makes its gunshots almost continuous.

The moment Liang Chengwu pressed the button, hundreds of rounds of 7.5mm machine gun bullets flew towards the Prussian column like raindrops, accompanied by the sound of cloth being torn apart.

The 7.5mm machine gun ammunition is completely different from the rifle ammunition. It uses a copper unarmored bullet with a pointed cone bottom. The bullet is heavier, has a longer range, and is more lethal.When these bullets weighing thirteen grams roared, the Prussians who were marching did not even react, and fell into a dense rain of bullets. When the heavy-pointed bullets penetrated people's bodies, they would not only interrupt their The bones, internal organs, and even pieces of flesh and blood dragged out, but only in an instant, the road was shrouded in a red mist.

Accompanied by the dense "whoosh" sound in the air, there seemed to be a small storm blowing on the dusty road. From time to time, a few inches of smoke and dust were raised on the dirt road. The dust hit by the bullets mixed with the red blood mist. Together, reflecting the dazzling brilliance in the sun.

The cavalry on the flanks didn't even have time to gallop their horses, and the horse's abdomen was hit by bullets. Amid the neighing of the horses, both men and horses fell to the ground. ,
"There is an ambush!"

When the soldiers kept falling under the rain of bullets, Engel rode on the horse, with his legs clamped in the belly of the horse, and pointed in the direction of the gunshots and shouted.

"Buh, the enemy is there, rush over with me!"

After all, he rode his horse in the lead and galloped towards the direction of the gunshots. Although there were bushes and stalks blocking the road, the Hanoverian horses they stepped on could easily jump over the stalks and charge towards the enemy. go……
