Chapter 916 Daming's Heavenly Eye (Fourth Update, please subscribe)
War is three-dimensional!
When the Ming army was advancing triumphantly, hundreds of thousands of troops divided into three groups to attack the most prosperous eastern coast of Brazil, and the airships constantly flying over their heads reminded them that the floating troops were bombing the enemy.

Whenever they saw those airships, smiles appeared on the faces of the soldiers, and they were full of confidence in the victory of the war.And this confidence comes from the powerful airship in the sky, which can destroy almost everything.

Those Brazilians have often been bombed by airships without seeing their appearance.Their positions, their artillery were destroyed in the bombing.

In fact, everyone knows very well that no matter how brave and skilled Ming's airship troops are, it is impossible to wipe out those Brazilian troops, but they can inflict heavy damage on the enemy. When they go into battle, they will only face a group of It's just a demoralized army.

airship!

What is the biggest advantage of airships?
It can stay in the air almost forever!
After the outbreak of the war, Ming Dynasty sent three of the six regiments with its floating troops. In addition to bombing the Brazilian barracks, it also sent a regiment to serve as an air security force.

The so-called air security force is an idea put forward by Emperor Zhu when he inspected the airship force in the third year of Shengde. It is to use the advantage of airships that can be suspended for a long time to send out airships during the war, with two to three ships as a unit. The crew hovered over the battle zone, and the crew used binoculars to observe. After discovering the enemy's marching column, they directly attacked it.

In other words, it is almost equivalent to a "naked eye ground warning airship", but it is the attacking type.

After the army invaded Brazil, the airship force immediately implemented the corresponding plan and dispatched dozens of airships to carry out this task. The warning area of ​​each formation is not large, which is about 100 kilometers long and [-] square kilometers wide. On a sunny day with good weather, they can condescendingly discover group targets one or two hundred kilometers away by using telescopes.

Because of this, after the Ming army started to attack, the battlefield was almost unilaterally transparent to Ming Dynasty, and these airships were suspended in the air almost 24 hours a day.

The air was quiet, and the airship with the engine turned off was just floating with the air currents. In the airship, Gu Chengan walked into the cockpit with a cup of tea in his hand, and took a look outside.

"How, did you find anything?"

Yang Tianqi, who put down the binoculars, laughed.

"What else? I didn't find anything. What do you think is wrong with this Brazilian? Don't you really give up the periphery and only plan to fight us in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro!"

"Whatever! Anyway, our task is simple, find out, and then..."

"bombing!"

What the crew said made them all laugh. For them in the air, there was almost no danger at all. For them, this war was almost the same as the usual training.

Just find out...and drop the bomb.Then return to the base to replenish the bombs, and after two days of rest, take off again and continue your vacation in the air.

"Continue to observe, and don't let go of suspicious targets."

Afterwards, he went to the back cabin, where several crew members were playing cards on the cockpit board. The long cruise in the air was a bit lonely, and they often could only pass the time by playing cards and reading books.

It was precisely because they were bored that they were full of anticipation for the battle, even if that kind of battle only lasted one or two minutes.

"Captain, come on, let's take two together!"

Faced with the crew's invitation, Gu Cheng'an did not refuse. As soon as he sat down, before he could keep up with him for two laps, the observers in the front cabin over there shouted.

"Find the brigade target."

"Long live!"

The shouting of the observers caused the officers and soldiers who were playing cards to shout excitedly, and rushed to the porthole. Although the target on the ground could not be seen, at this moment, the engine of the airship roared again, heading towards the porthole. Headed in the other direction, and the other two airships a few kilometers away also followed suit.

Soon the three airships re-formed after passing the flashing signal, and flew towards the distance. When they flew, the blue team on the ground who was marching did not realize at all that they had been exposed. In fact, it was not only such a "security team" that discovered them, but two security teams also discovered them, and they all ran directly to the target.

Staring at the marching Brazilian army in the northeast, Gu Chengan ordered.

"Determine the direction of the airflow, and meet the enemy silently."

After the order was given, the airship turned off the engine. After the airship was blown by the airflow and deviated from the course, they adjusted the course through the rudder surface of the airship, and quietly approached the target.

At this time, the three airships were like three silent assassins, quietly approaching the ground target at an altitude of 1000 meters, while the Brazilian army on the ground was not aware of the danger at all.

The airship continued to descend while meeting the enemy. Even when they appeared above the Brazilians, the Brazilian army on the ground hadn't reacted yet.

"bomb!"

The moment the bombardier pressed the button, cluster bombs fell from the sky, one by one cluster bombs roared along the column of the Brazilian army, falling one by one, and a few seconds later, at the moment when the timing explosion cable exploded the cluster bomb box, Hundreds of small bombs scattered.

Everything happened so suddenly that the Brazilians on the ground fell into a sea of ​​flames without even reacting. The dense cluster bombs exploded between the marching columns as if they had eyes. Small bombs weighing several kilograms brought a bloody storm in the queue. In the violent explosion, those Brazilian soldiers who were still marching were either blown to the sky, or their arms and thighs were blown up. The flying shrapnel wantonly harvested the lives of Brazilians.

But in the blink of an eye, the Brazilian army that was marching fell into chaos. The lucky ones ran to the left and right of the road in horror, but the scattered bombs enveloped them, and the flying shrapnel directly penetrated their bodies, tearing their flesh apart.

For these black slaves who were working on the plantation a few months ago under the whip of their master, they didn't even know what happened, and then died in the explosion!

God of death, just like that.

When it came, those people were like poor ants, ignorant of all this,
