Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 952 Saturation Bombardment
The height of an adult giant ape generally reaches about 2 meters, and some males can grow to 5 meters.

Yao Ming is less than 2.3 meters tall, but he is already a giant in the eyes of ordinary people.

A giant beast that was a head taller than him and twice as big as him.

If equipped with dwarven heavy armor, when facing the trolls and bugbears from the orcs in the future, not only will they not be at a disadvantage in terms of size, but their defense will definitely be stronger.

If the giant apes were taught to use sledgehammers or battle axes, and the fighting skills passed down by the dwarves for countless years.

Even if it is just a simple technique, your combat effectiveness can be increased exponentially.

So Luna, the other elves, and the dwarves, were shocked when they heard Chu Xiangqian's plan to equip the giant apes with heavy armor.

I immediately thought about how to train and cultivate them.

But what Luna and the others didn't know was that Chu Xiangqian had already upgraded 22 adult giant apes and 16 baby giant apes to level 20.

The three-dimensional attributes are already 12 for constitution, 10 for strength, and 8 for agility.
成年矮人的三维属性，基本上是体质4-5，力量3-4，敏捷1-2。

精灵则是体质2-3，力量1-2，敏捷4-5。

Therefore, the giant apes are not worried that the heavy armor will make them lose their ability to move, nor are they afraid that it is too heavy to wear.

The 12-point physique allows them to become tireless killing machines on the battlefield.

Therefore, Chu Xiangqian specifically told Luna that when designing heavy armor for these giant apes, it must be full body armor.

If the Norn and Valar are willing to help, they can equip the giant apes with arcane armor that protects them from magic, and then put on thick dwarven heavy armor.

Now, the elves and dwarves shuddered secretly just thinking about the double armor that resists magic and physical attacks, and when these giant apes go to the battlefield in the future.

Fortunately, the dwarves and elves felt a little relieved when they heard Chu Xiangqian say that these were the only members of the giant ape tribe.

No matter how powerful an individual is, he is often insignificant in the face of numbers.

Let Luna get acquainted with the giant ape leader, and Chu Xiangqian appeared in the real world in a flash.

The titmouse flew several circles around the Java military camp, and Chu Xiangqian quickly found a place suitable for a mortar position.

There is a slope in front and a forest behind.

The artillery position is placed here, and the slope can provide a certain degree of concealment.

The woods behind made it easy to retreat, and there was no need to worry about being ambushed.

Elves are the absolute kings of the forest.

Chu Xiangqian rode Red Hare for two kilometers, came to the chosen place and walked around it personally, then entered the Novice Village with satisfaction.

He began to distribute the sniper rifles among the tens of thousands of Lee Enfield rifles collected from the Tianzhu warehouse that year to his lord's guard.

Compared with the Mosingan rifles previously distributed to the guards, the rifles distributed this time are not only brand new but also unopened.

It is also very well maintained.

Compared with the Mosing Gun rifle, the Lee Enfield rifle has a faster shooting speed and is relatively more accurate.

Moreover, both of them are loaded with 10 rounds. Given the elves' talent in shooting, if you give them automatic rifles, they will be worse than bolt-action rifles.

The elves have been focusing on shooting for dozens or even one or two hundred years. After using rifles in recent years, they have all become snipers.

A distance of three or four hundred meters is no different to them than a target three or four meters away.

After changing their clothes, the elves got the hang of it very quickly, and they were able to hit 10 rings with every shot after just firing a dozen shots.

The bullets of the Ying-series rifles can also prevent the Javanese from saying that it was polar bears or the Celestial Empire that killed an entire camp of their soldiers because of the bullets.

Chu Xiangqian took out 2 rounds of bullets and let the elves continue to familiarize themselves with the new guns.

He took 200 dwarf mortarmen with him to familiarize himself with eight BL-type 8mm howitzers.

The British 5.5-inch howitzer has a caliber of 140 mm, a total weight of 5850 kg and a barrel length of 4175 mm.

The shell weighs 36 kilograms. When it is fired, people within a radius of to meters will be shocked and lose their combat effectiveness even if they are not killed.

Within 50 meters, the eardrum will also be injured.

However, the shooting speed of this thing is relatively slow. The British army's own standard is two shots per minute.

But for dwarves, who are three or four times stronger than humans, the loading speed of 36 kg shells can be at least twice as fast.

Once you become proficient, firing 1 shots in 4 minute is no problem at all.

At worst, 3 shots are still guaranteed.

However, in order to serve this gun well, the gun crew needs 10 people.

But Chu Xiangqian had a personal belongings inventory, so he didn't need to carry too many shells, and he also needed to tow the cannon to move short distances for the crew members.

After the fight, put it directly into the Novice Village warehouse and take the dwarf back to the Novice Village.

So in addition to 8 howitzers, Chu Xiangqian also took out 50 60mm mortars.

This thing was bought from China.

The first time he bought 10 guns, these 10 guns were left by Chu Xiangqian in Stromgarde.

The second time, I bought 100 guns and 1 rounds of ammunition.

However, 50 of them and 1200 rounds of shells were given to my elder brother-in-law Xue Jianrong, who was in charge of the infiltration mission in Tianzhu in 62.

After all, dwarves are the group that is best at handling iron tools.

It is extremely easy for them to use artillery guns.

The howitzer only fired 10 rounds for test, but it was already able to hit the designated area on the hilltop of the Novice Village 1 kilometer away.

Chu Xiangqian didn't need a howitzer to shoot with the accuracy of a rifle.

Bombard the Java military camp and hit the inside of the camp.

This thing relies on concentrated fire.

It’s around 4 a.m., which is the time of the day when we have the deepest sleep.

Chu Xiangqian appeared at the artillery position with the dwarves and elves. One hundred elven guards, carrying bows and arrows and holding rifles, divided into several groups and quickly surrounded the military camp.

The mission of the escort team was simple: to act as snipers and ambush within two to three hundred meters around the military camp.

If anyone escaped, they would be shot one by one.

The dwarfs had a simpler task; they fiddled with the howitzers and mortars for a few minutes and prepared them for the bombardment.

Chu Xiangqian looked at his watch and confirmed through the tit that all 100 elves had chosen their ambush points.

Nodded at Luna.

This girl just repeatedly requested that she be the one to give the order for the artillery fire.

Seeing Chu nod forward, he immediately shouted to the dwarf, "Prepare for artillery fire."

After one group after another heard the sound of shooting.

Luna suppressed her excitement, drew her bow and arrow, and a whistling arrow used exclusively by elves flew into the sky.

Eight howitzers and 8 mortars fired simultaneously.

In an instant, the entire battlefield was like thunder.

Balls of flames came from the muzzles of eight howitzers, and eight howitzer shells and 8 8mm mortar shells rose into the air.

Four or five seconds later, the military camp 2 kilometers away was set ablaze by eight howitzer shells.

Then 50 mortar shells landed.

The dense explosions could be heard within several kilometers or even more than ten kilometers around.

What Chu Xiangqian requested was covering fire. The howitzer fired one round, and the mortar team had already fired three rounds.

The explosions continued for five minutes in the target military camp. 5 howitzer shells and more than 130 mortar shells bombarded the military camp like the end of the world.

Countless Javanese monkeys were killed by artillery fire while they were still asleep.

However, Chu Xiangqian saw through the sky that only one third of the soldiers in the barracks were actually killed by the artillery shells.

Immediately ordered the dwarves to fine-tune the coordinates.

Having the titmouse is like having a sky eye that can open the map, which is very helpful for artillery battles.

Just minutes later, artillery fire was heard again on the position.

Outside the camp, elves also opened fire, killing those who were trying to flee like crazy.

In just a few minutes, at least forty monkeys were shot dead.

The effect of the second round of shelling was much stronger than the first round.

There were four or five thousand people in the entire camp, but after this round of shelling and sniping, only two or three hundred people were able to run and move.

The others were either killed in the explosion or injured by the shock wave.

Chu Xiangqian directly stopped the howitzer, and at the same time, directed the mortar team to fine-tune the artillery data through the mountain sparrow and continue to fire 10 rounds rapidly.

At the same time, the eight howitzers and the remaining one hundred or so shells planned for the third round of shelling were directly stored in the Novice Village warehouse.

The gunfire from the elves two kilometers away gradually became less frequent.

Chu Xiangqian continued to command 10 mortars to attack groups of three or five people, while collecting the remaining mortars.

Half an hour later, the mortars only fired one or two rounds from time to time under Chu Xiangqian's command to attack the bunkers where there might still be living Javanese.

While saying to Luna, "Send a signal and order all the elves to retreat."

Luna nodded, then turned to nod at the captain of her personal guard.

Soon a horn sounded, and a hundred elves began to retreat.

To be honest, Chu Xiangqian still underestimated the lethality of heavy artillery.

In particular, the simultaneous bombardment of 8 cannons can cause greater damage than the bombardment of 50 mortars.

No wonder in this day and age, people prefer heavy artillery with a larger caliber, the better.

Of course, a 140mm land artillery gun already weighs 6.2 tons, and any heavier would be impractical.

The problem of transportation alone limits the caliber of artillery.

When all the guards were withdrawn and the number of people was counted, the dwarves and the remaining mortars and shells had all been taken back to the Novice Village or the warehouse by Chu Xiangqian.

After all the guards entered the Novice Village, Chu Xiangqian looked at his watch and saw that it was only 5 a.m.

Looking at Luna, the girl put her arms around Chu Xiangqian's arms and started shaking.

"My dear, the mission has been completed. Take me to have some fun in this world, okay?"

Chu Xiangqian was stunned for a moment, then quickly smiled helplessly.

When mobilizing the guards and the dwarf squadron, they had actually already considered whether or not the problem would be discovered.

As the elves are a long-lived race, some of them must have studied the astronomy of Middle-earth.

Just by looking at the stars in the sky, many elves can see the difference between the real world and Middle-earth.

Not to mention, if there was a human force in Middle-earth that could develop a 5.5-inch howitzer, it would surely become the king.

It is also impossible that no news has come out.

Even just a large number of rifles and bullets can give the elves a lot to think about.

In recent years, Chu Xiangqian has significantly reduced his visits to Stromgarde, which has made the elves and dwarves feel a lot more at ease.

If he came from another world, it would either be the worst outcome for the elves and dwarves, or not a bad outcome.

Chu Xiangqian's attitude towards Stromgarde in recent years has indirectly proved that he poses little threat to Middle-earth.

Not to mention, he was pretty nice to elves and dwarves.

Luna was sure that her man was from another world, so she wanted to stay and see.

By the way, determine how big Chu Xiangqian's ambition is.

Chu Xiangqian took out a motorcycle from the Novice Village warehouse and headed north with Luna.

As for Luna's pointed ears, they can be covered by just a headscarf.

Moreover, there are still many people in the history of elves who like to travel around.

There are still many ways to hide your elf characteristics when entering the human world.

When we arrived at the beach, we looked around through the birdwatching method to make sure there was no one around. Then we took out the seaplane and arrived in Singapore, which took more than an hour.

This time Chu Xiangqian did not hide his whereabouts, but put on some makeup and easily turned himself into a person with South American appearance.

Luna took off her armor and gave it to Chu Xiangqian to keep. She put on a long robe, held Chu Xiangqian's arm, and went to play in the city.

Chu Xiangqian felt that any city of this era was just so-so.

But in Luna's eyes, there were too many shocks and curiosity.

Vehicles are driving on the streets and people are coming and going.

Tall buildings and dense construction.

All of this shows that this city alone has more population and wealth than the Norn elves and the Valar elves combined.

And this city is just another city in this world, whose population and prosperity are not even among the top ten or even the top twenty.

When Luna heard Chu Xiangqian say that Singapore has a population of several million and can only be considered a small country in this world, she suddenly became nervous.

Chu Xiangqian then told us that the country where he was born has a population of four to five hundred million.

Luna's heart almost stopped beating.

Then he thought dejectedly, what if Chu Xiangqian really intended to invade Middle-earth.

Even if all the races in Middle-earth united, they would not be able to stop hundreds of thousands or millions of humans armed with rifles and cannons.

Chu Xiangqian knew what the woman was worried about.

Taking her to a luxurious hotel, Luna immediately felt that even the mansion of the Valar elves' lord was not as luxurious as this hotel in terms of decoration.

After entering the presidential suite, Luna was shocked by the luxurious decoration in the suite.

He hugged Chu Xiangqian and said, "My dear, no wonder you have been to Stromgarde less and less frequently in the past two or three years."

Chu Xiangqian didn't think the suite was luxurious at all. He took Luna to wash up and held her in his arms, planning to catch up on some sleep.

It was already past 10 o'clock in the morning in Java.

The fierce shelling in the early hours of the morning was heard not only by people around the military camp, but also by many people in Jakarta, more than ten kilometers away.

So someone reported this to the higher authorities early on, and it finally appeared on the desk of the military general who led the coup.

Out of a whole brigade of 4,500 men, only a dozen soldiers with incredible luck were still alive.

The generals who launched the coup found the massacre incredible and frightening at the same time.

Since they can bombard the military camp, they can definitely bombard the residence of a general like me.

And with a little thought, these people can guess it.

This shelling must be related to yesterday's brigade, which sent a regiment of soldiers armed with weapons into Jakarta.

It is related to instigating and encouraging the indigenous people to attack the Chinese.
