Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

Chapter 299 Heavy Bombing
Looking at this noble young man on the grassland, Zhang Yu hesitated, looked at his subordinates dissatisfied, shook his head and said, "Bei Zi, you have a noble status, so I can't let you take risks. After thinking about it, I still think Let the airship go, they fly a few times, even at night"

"General Zhang!" Gonbuzabu interrupted him, raised his head proudly and said, "We Mongolians have never been afraid, we have been to the north as well, an old man invited us before, it was fine at that time, and We are very familiar with Yelu, and there are often people in the tribe who go there to do business!"

"Beizi..." Zhang Yu thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Since Beizi is determined, I would like to ask you to do another dangerous thing."

"Please tell me!" Gun Bu Zhabu stood straight, looked at Zhang Yu and said, "If there is any difficulty, you will catch me and feed the wolves!"

Everyone laughed, and Zhang Yu said: "Okay! Send your men to attack the camp tonight!" During this arguing, Zhang Yu also realized that he was a little impatient, and at the same time he had a plan in mind, and continued to order: "All generals listen Ling, at midnight tonight, keep on the offensive across the board! Let the Russians sleep well! Runners move forward at the same time, get my face back! Notify the airship brigade, quickly organize a formation, and sleep well tonight Once you wake up, put all the bombs on me tomorrow, and set off early in the morning to blow up Irkutsk!"

"This night, the old man will not be able to sleep well." Khalkha Khan Limuzhuo said with a smile.

"How many shells will this cost the country?" Hatu expressed his worries very cutely.

"The temporary expense is nothing, the emperor said it is called investment." Zhang Yu said to everyone mysteriously.

"Investment?" Such a novel vocabulary confused the leaders of the Mongolian tribes present.

"Everyone, today is mainly due to being caught off guard by the first wave of the Russian offensive. As a result, our army still has many shortcomings in terms of combat readiness, but I feel that everything will be different tomorrow." Zhang Yu said confidently.

This kind of land confrontation war is very amazing because the soldiers on both sides are very amazing.It is also a national defense war where every inch of land is contested, so the time will not be completed in a short period of time.For example, the Yili front on the western front is okay, and the two sides seem to have a tacit understanding.There is a small strike every morning, and there is no large-scale action in the afternoon except for sporadic artillery fire.It seems that the Russians are waiting for something, maybe it is a domestic truce order, maybe it is something else, in short, this group of Cossacks who traveled a long distance from Turkey shot down a Chinese airship.Nothing more to do.Of course, Feng Xianghua's order was to make them wait.

Tonight, the waning moon hangs high above the treetops.Grand Duke Nicholas, who was in command of Irkutsk, continued to receive harassment reports from Mongolian cavalry overnight. In particular, a group of more than [-] Mongolian cavalry suddenly appeared at the forward position of Irkutsk's frontal defense line. In the middle of the battle, a burst of rampage killed and wounded the strength of a division of the Russian army, creating the biggest miracle since the start of the war on the central battlefield.

At this time, Zhang Yu was mobilizing the airship bombing brigade, and the thirty airship crew members were all in high spirits.He had just received the news that the Mongolian cavalry under Gunbuzabu had returned in a big victory, so he was extremely excited. He shook hands with thirty soldiers one after another, and personally helped the ground crew to put a bomb on the airship and back on the airship. Weapons and equipment such as bomb openings and howitzers were inspected.Finally, he said loudly: "Don't worry, if it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time. The five airships also have eight or nine thousand catties of bombs, and they will all be given to the old man to set off firecrackers. I am here waiting for your good news, and I will give you some good news when I come back." One by one, the merits will be guaranteed!"

Amidst the sudden promise, the first large-scale airship bombing kicked off the prelude.After the previous incident of being chased by Russian airships, the clever Chinese mechanics can be said to have armed these five airships to the teeth, and increased the cortex of the balloon from two layers to four layers. It is difficult for ordinary three-wire rifles to penetrate it. There are short-range defense equipment with grenades and Maxim machine guns, and there are long-range 87mm camping guns at the back. The combination of light and heavy weapons and long-range and short-range weapons complement each other.Many pilots are eager to encounter Russian airships again on this mission, and use these advanced weapons to teach the wretched Russians a lesson.

The airship was responsible for bombing the Russian army's ammunition depots and weapon depots. Once successful, it would be the prelude to Zhang Yu's central army's counterattack.Of course, this is by no means an easy task. The Russian ground forces also have Hatch Case machine guns and Monasingan rifles. The effective killing distance of these weapons is not short.Lin Yizheng, the commander of this formation, stared in the direction of his hometown for a long time before leaving, and finally gritted his teeth and boarded the airship.This was his last mission before retiring. Considering his many years of flying and commanding experience, as well as his rare tactical mind, Zhang Yu asked Lin Yizheng to undertake this arduous task by name. Lin Yizheng didn't even frown. With a wrinkle, he accepted the order.

After sailing almost all night, the airship finally reached the sky above Irkutsk. The rising sun gave Lin Yizheng the best guidance.At this time, as long as he added a little judgment and thought about the distribution of buildings on the ground, Lin Yizheng quickly brought the formation over the densely built area adjacent to Lake Baikal.

"The Flying Tiger locked the hull and dropped the bomb immediately!" Lin Yizheng issued the first combat order to the Flying Tiger using the radio device on the airship.With a long sound of "squeak", the first bomb was tentatively dropped.

boom!The bomb made by the Tongguan Arsenal took the lead in exploding 15 meters away from the Russian baggage warehouse. Although it did not hit the warehouse directly, the huge explosion force shattered all the eight large glass windows of the warehouse, and the wall near the point of impact Unable to withstand the huge shock wave, it collapsed suddenly, and the dust flew straight into the sky for a while!
"what is the problem?"

"Did the ammunition in the warehouse explode?"

"Look! What's that flying in the sky?"

"Airship! We are under attack from an airship."

"Quickly get out of here"

When the Russian soldiers heard that they had been attacked by the airship, they all ran out of the door in a swarm. The soldiers who ran out shouted, "Emergency! The Chinese airship is coming!"

Soldiers in other warehouses heard the shouts and ran around to avoid the bomb attack.

The running and assembly direction of the soldiers gave the airship a second guide.Lin Yizheng, who had always been serious and unsmiling, now had a murderous look on his face, and said to the artillerymen beside him, "It's time to fire!"

With an order, five Maxim heavy machine guns and 85mm battalion guns swept the chaotic Russian soldiers on the ground like a storm.At the same time, the bombardier aimed one after another giant bombs at the supply warehouse and continuously projected them down.Time is not long, and this storage area, which carries all the logistics and armaments of the Russian army on the Novosibirsk defense line, is in flames of war.
