Chapter 1010 The Game of Landmines 4
"Landmine?" Huanmeng was astonished, thinking that he had heard it wrong: "Aren't the landmines buried in the ground? They can still be fired with shells? And won't they explode directly in the barrel of the gun?"

"This kind of mine is different from the previous ones." Piris said, "The previous ones were indeed buried in the ground in advance, but these mines were placed on the ground."

"Arranged on the ground?" Huanmeng couldn't understand, "If that's the case, wouldn't the original effect be achieved? Only if you don't know where the mines are will you be blown up? ...And, how did you manage to fire it with a cannonball!?"

"These mines are stored in a special shell in an independent state." General Pierris explained, "When it reaches the end of the range, the shell will automatically disintegrate and disperse the built-in mines; these mines will be directly scattered. On the ground, it's not very noticeable, but it's totally observable; these mines don't go off easily, only when they're crushed by something quite heavy - like the 'Wolf' and 'Mammoth', otherwise , it will stay there forever. There is a special glue on the mines, which will be tightly bonded to the surrounding stones, and it is impossible to remove them manually."

"That is to say, those 'bee' types will continue to deal with those mines?" Huanmeng looked at those "bee" types that were gradually decreasing in number, and felt pain in his heart-these people used their lives as chariots behind them time and time again. Forge a path forward.

"That's it." General Pierris said, "The 'Bee'-style main gun can destroy those mines, but...the mines are not all real, and quite a few of them are extremely cheap simulation models, even if they are suppressed It's not going to explode."

Huanmeng froze - she quickly understood the purpose of this design.

Among the landmines all over the ground, quite a few mines are fake, but there is no way to tell them apart; it would be a waste of time to deal with them one by one; if not, what should we do if we step on them?
This is a game - the cost of those mines is undoubtedly higher than the cost of the shells; however, if you don't clear the mines because you feel sorry for the shells, you may lose far more Chariots that are much higher than artillery shells; in such a situation, as long as the density of mines is not so high that they cannot be removed, the only option available to the enemy general is to clear those mines.

However, in the process of clearing landmines, time costs are unavoidable, and what the country of the sandy shore wants to fight for is time.Eliminating as many "bee" types as possible can slow down the enemy's offensive pace, and even completely contain its offensive.

"If the 'bee' type goes a little further, it will enter the range of the 'wolf' type." General Pierris is full of confidence, "The power of the 'Wolf' type main gun is comparable to those that only focus on range and penetration. Tou's weapons are much stronger."

In those fortifications, the people who are firing at the "Bee" at the front are probably using weapons that "only focus on range and penetration".No, stylistically, it seems there are other types out there...

How many difficulties and obstacles must the "bee" type pass through to successfully open up the road?When it gets closer, the casualties will be even greater. Do you have to wait until the loss is unbearable before admitting failure?Wouldn't they have retreated despite the difficulties...?
Wait... Back out?
