Chapter 1917: The Strongest Defensive Weapon
Wasteland World, Baghdad Defense Line, Iraq.
The main attack direction of the southern army of the Yuri Empire. In order to break through this first line of defense in the south, the Yuri Empire assembled more than five million troops here on the sixth day of its full-scale attack on the wasteland.
The huge army kept attacking the outer walls of the Baghdad defense line. The Baghdad Fortress was a super defense line surrounded by walls as high as 100 meters.
The attacking Yuri Empire army successfully broke through this line of defense and advanced to a position less than 40 kilometers away from the Baghdad line of defense.
The artillery troops of the Yuri Empire kept pouring firepower towards the wall, and the boundless gunpowder smoke filled the sky, covering the entire sky.
On the Baghdad defense line, El Yeser stood quietly at the highest point of the Baghdad fortress alone. Numerous monitoring equipment transmitted the images of the entire battlefield to this place.
The first line of defense was easily breached, which meant that the enemy had advanced one step further.
But from the face of El Yeser, there is no tension. From the war to the present, the Red Police Corps has always maintained a strong combat effectiveness.
Like the Red Police Corps, the defense of the wall is far from fully deployed.
At this moment, under the eyes of Al Yaser, around the Baghdad fortress, there are circles of walls, sections of walls, and turrets of huge weapons rise from the inside of the walls.
The standard width of the wall is 20 meters, but at the connection point of each section of the wall, there will be a 40-meter-wide platform. On this platform, a red forbidden area is drawn, warning not to stay in this area.
At this moment, on the top of the 40-meter-square platform, the walls on the surface of the wall spread out to both sides, and a huge turret slowly rose from the inside.
Three thick gun barrels are erected on the top of the turret. The 35-meter-long gun barrels are installed in triples in the turret. When the entire turret rises from the wall, the triple gun barrels are laid flat.
508 mm caliber, seventy times the barrel, fixed triple turret.
Infrared laser plus satellite guidance and radar guidance triple aiming method,
Although it looks like an enlarged version of the battleship turret of the last century, it is difficult to match the artillery of the last century in terms of firing frequency and attack accuracy. wife luck
On one wall after another, such cannons appeared one after another, and the barrels were all aimed at the outer periphery of the defense line.
And among these cannons on the wall, there are even super cannons with larger calibers, 800mm single-barreled cannons. Just seeing a super cannon that covers an area of more than 100 meters is enough to be intimidating.
Under the turret, shells weighing more than two tons are transported and loaded into the barrel. The fully automatic loading can complete three salvos per minute. This is a firepower density that is completely impossible to achieve in the main guns of the battleship era. .
The volley of artillery fire covered all the sounds on the entire battlefield. Behind the battlefield, the artillery positions of the Yuri Empire, with amazingly powerful heavy artillery, covered the artillery positions of the entire Yuri Empire.
The huge explosion power even lifted all the cannons into the air, and the cannons that were directly hit by the explosion were blown back to the state of parts.
The attacking Yuri Empire army also found the most violent heavy artillery strike. The fierce artillery fire covered the offensive front of the Yuri Empire in one breath. The powerful artillery fire set off huge pits on the ground that were tens of meters deep. .
The powerful artillery once again dominates the battlefield, but only in this kind of war environment can there be room for these heavy artillery to survive.
Compared with the cost of missiles, this kind of artillery can achieve firepower projection, not only has a more efficient strike effect than missiles, but the cost is so small that it can be ignored.
Intensive artillery fire coverage, all heavy artillery, whether it was tanks or soldiers, were submerged under the powerful firepower.
There is no ground equipment in the world that can withstand the attack of this super artillery. Even if it is hundreds of meters away from the center of the explosion, the huge shock wave of the shell explosion can overturn the tank.
For soldiers within a radius of 300 meters from the explosion point, the huge explosion power can directly shatter the internal organs of the soldiers, causing internal hemorrhage and death.
The ruthless fire coverage caused the Yuri Empire's attacking army to be frustrated immediately, and the Yuri Empire's offensive troops retreated for the first time in history.
Under such heavy artillery strikes, a blind attack is purely one-sided massacre. Fan Mengxian
When the last soldier of the Yuri Empire withdrew to the attack distance of the wall, all the heavy artillery retracted their barrels and disappeared above the wall.
But the memory left to the soldiers of the Yuri Empire is hard to erase.
Li Lan, who witnessed all this, was also a little shocked by the super artillery feast prepared by Cai Ruichen.
"You built so many cannons, and they are old-fashioned cannons." Li Lan asked Cai Ruichen in surprise.
"This is the wasteland world. Although the attack of the super electromagnetic gun is stronger, it is a point-to-point attack. If it is to defend against a steady stream of enemies, then this kind of explosive cannon is more suitable for the defense of the wasteland. At the beginning It was just to defend against the mutants, but ended up bumping into the enemy." Cai Ruichen explained.
The base cannon is an advanced defense unit, a powerful weapon capable of directly attacking satellites. Under the air strike of the cannon, it is difficult for even Li Lan's aerospace fleet to get close.
Li Lan originally thought that the powerful defensive weapon that Cai Ruichen had prepared on the fence should be a super electromagnetic gun, but he did not expect such a scene to appear.
But I have to say that judging from the performance on the battlefield, this kind of super artillery can kill the enemy far more than the effect of the electromagnetic cannon. With one shot, there is a death zone within hundreds of meters. With such a huge killing range, the enemy comes and goes. Many, but also in vain.
Without targeted weapons, the enemy would have to pay an absolutely unbearable price if he wanted to break through such a line of defense, so the enemy chose to retreat.
Whether a weapon is advanced or not is not an absolute criterion for measuring the combat effectiveness of a weapon. It can exert amazing effects on the battlefield, even if it is outdated, it is still the best weapon.
"It seems that my worries are unnecessary. The Yuri Empire wants to attack here, and the price it has to pay is already worth the Yuri Empire's careful consideration, whether to continue to attack blindly." Li Lan said.
"I have all kinds of natural advantages, but no matter how good the defense is, I can't defeat the enemy." Cai Ruichen shook his head and said.
If the enemy cannot be defeated, the war will continue endlessly. This is not what he wants, but facing the enemy's huge war machine, Cai Ruichen has only the option of defense at this moment.
