Although the Maoqiu people also arranged a large number of fortifications outside the city, so that most of the outer fortifications can be attacked by land warfare, but only artillery over 180mm can reach the city of Mocheng, and if you want to increase the accuracy If it is controlled within a certain range, a larger caliber artillery is needed, but the air force is not so restricted, and the hit rate will be much higher.

"Well, let's divide it into levels first. Let's leave it alone in the city. First try to destroy the outer defense line. After destroying the outer defense line of Mocheng, we should not rush to attack the city for the time being, and wait for three days of fire coverage. Attack again later!"

Zhang Xiaohuai finally determined his battle plan. Anyway, it has now reached the capital of others. Although the final battle is important but not urgent, he can use all means to reduce casualties. It is also a testing ground and training ground for the imperial new weapons.

Immediately after Wang Guangxu briefly summarized a few sentences, the commanders of the various army groups also left the headquarters. They needed to rush to the battlefield to prepare to launch a siege of Mocheng.

This time Dongfang invested a total of tens of thousands of artillery pieces outside the city of Mocheng. The 240mm heavy howitzers reached 216, not to mention the 105 and 155 light howitzers, which are all measured in thousands.

They will bombard the Maoqiu people's outer defenses, and wait until these positions become a threat, before they truly engage in the main battle, so as to achieve the goal of killing and reducing their own army's casualties to the maximum.

At 12:15 pm on April 19th, all artillery positions were ready, and with the commander’s order, the artillery blasted out of the chamber and angered the sky.

At 3:20 in the afternoon, the prepared coalition artillery began the artillery.

"boom!"

The raindrops of shells exploded on the positions of the Maoqiu military. The most powerful unconscious heavy howitzers, whether they are 180MM or 210 and 240MM, although their number is much smaller, they add up to only 2000, but The effect of the bombardment is truly unparalleled.

It would be better if these shells just exploded on the battlefield, but once they fell into the trenches, they would directly blast away a dozen meters or even dozens of meters of defense, not to mention the machine gun firepower points and small-caliber artillery inside.

Of course at this time most of the Soviet army had already hid in the trenches to avoid the artillery attack, otherwise the casualties would be extremely heavy.Yaoyao Literature Network www.11wxw.com

Although land artillery is inferior to field artillery in its ability to deal with trenches, it is obviously more powerful than mortars under the coverage regardless of cost.

What's more, these air-raid shelters built by the Soviet army may not be considered as cutting-edge and must be a reduction of materials. After all, the materials are too excessive, and because of the large number of civilians, there are not enough professionals themselves to build the bomb shelters. That's the same thing.

The anti-attack ability of these anti-blast holes is really average, if it is hit by a large-caliber howitzer head-on, it will often show its original shape.

Almost every shelling will cause heavy losses to the Maoqiu people. The densely packed shells fell on their positions as if they were free of money. The sound of explosions one after another, and the diffuse rumors enveloped their positions, making it difficult to see inside. The specific circumstances of these hair ball people can only persist in hard work, and prepare for this artillery fire to pass early.

"Damn yellow-skinned monkeys, what do they want, do they want to blow us alive with cannonballs? It's just whimsical!"

In the headquarters outside the city of Mocheng, Budjoni could not help cursing loudly. As the only remaining two marshals, he was assigned a position on the defense line outside Mocheng, which can be said to be very unlucky.

The shock caused by the huge explosion on the defensive position can be felt even in the city. It is conceivable that the loss of the furball army on the position will be so heavy.,

Originally, they didn't think about how long the defense line outside the city could hold, but another important goal was to consume a large amount of the active force of the Eastern Allied Forces, but the bombardment without money pushed themselves into a situation where they were consumed.

"Marshal, our outer defenses suffered heavy losses. The bombardment by the Orientals was too violent. Our defenses could not be resisted at all. Many of the bombing holes collapsed. Later, if the Orientals launch a large-scale attack, it may be difficult for them to attack. Resist for a longer period of time." A staff officer could not help but reminded with anxiety that it was too difficult to stick to it when there were a large number of casualties among the destroyed positions.

Budjoni was also silent. As several cavalry marshals who hadn't been on the battlefield for a long time, he was actually not familiar with modern warfare, but the situation of Maoqiu was simply not something a military genius could change.

He understood Dalin's plan to defend Mocheng and wait for the international situation to change.

The strength of the East cannot be controlled by their furballs, and even if the situation changes, furballs will not be able to intervene. They will definitely be the first to be eliminated...
