Chapter 254 254 Nothing

On the branch of a westward railway, countless engineers are building several new circular railways. These railways are specially constructed to look like a bizarre cross-shaped fork.

Not far from where these engineers are busy, a giant artillery with a barrel of more than 21 meters is slowly raising its barrel. This is the largest caliber train gun in the hands of the Alanhill Army. , lifted the canvas to reveal his true face.

This cannon is very terrifying, but it's a bit ill-timed. The army already has Scud ballistic missiles here, and the K5 train gun here has just been put into the war.

Originally, when this type of artillery was manufactured, there were not many large-caliber howitzers in the army company. As a result, looking back now, I found that whether it was a 155mm caliber howitzer group or a larger caliber 203mm howitzer The heavy artillery under the group army's jurisdiction is already too many.

What is even more sad is that this 283mm caliber heavy artillery has had to compete with advanced weapons and equipment such as the B-52 bomber and advanced Fritz-X bombs for a chance to appear. .

Fortunately, the demand for front-line artillery reinforcements is getting higher and higher. This kind of K5 train artillery, which has been produced and has fallen behind before it has been put into actual combat, is finally not to be wasted. Spirit, was pulled to the front-line artillery positions.

Generally speaking, this kind of huge train gun is carried by the front and rear two action mechanisms of the body to carry the full weight. A train gun is composed of a series of carriages, including a locomotive, a crew carriage, a supply carriage, and an ammunition carriage.

Only the total combat weight of this heavy artillery is as much as 218 tons of terrifying. It can easily and accurately deliver projectiles up to 40 kilometers away, causing terrifying damage there.

What's more terrifying is that its firing speed is not much slower than that of a 203mm caliber heavy artillery - within an hour, it can shoot 8 shells, and its performance is absolutely reassuring excellent.

Today, right here, the 1st Army received a full 10 K5 railway guns, and now 7 guns have built their shelling positions and raised their impressive barrels.

"Here are the shelling parameters... the coordinates provided by the ground troops." An officer handed the report to his comrades and said softly, "Fire one door at a time, and fire a salvo. It's not necessary."

There is really no such need. The targets that need to be removed by such heavy artillery are not gathered together, and in terms of the power of artillery shells, this kind of artillery is completely useless. Consider overriding this kind of thing.

With just one cannonball, it can destroy pretty solid fortifications and pull up by the roots all nearby associated targets.

This is the power of the train cannon, the terrifying power of this outdated weapon. Of course, after a period of time, after Alanhill comes up with his own precision-guided weapon, this bulky train gun weapon can be safely recycled to the Alanhill Military Museum for retirement.

"The first coordinates have been confirmed! The shells have been loaded...you can fire at any time." In the artillery headquarters, a non-commissioned officer put down the telephone receiver in his hand and shouted to the officer who had just spoken.

"Let them fire!" the officer ordered softly, squinting.

"bang!" The earth shook and the mountain quivered shot, the huge shell was pushed out of the muzzle by the pressure and flew to the distant target.

Because the distance is too far, the attacked target doesn't know yet, it is about to disappear in this world.

It was a barricade reinforced with reinforced concrete filled with the remains of puppets. The puppet soldiers are stationed here, and they are also equipped with very rare Maxim machine guns.

These puppets are stationed here and have been threatening the safety of Kaunia Railway Station, and the location of this barricade was discovered when the rainy season came.

B-17 bombers cannot take off and bomb in rainy weather, so they can't even use Fritz-X bombs. The accuracy of the B-52 bomber carrying the Super Hound to attack this kind of target is not guaranteed, so the final attacking task fell on the K5 train gun.

It can be considered to be the best use of it. After all, in rainy days, the reinforcements of the Air Force are not so timely and effective. With these super-large-caliber heavy artillery, the army is more courageous.

The shells whizzed past in the sky, drew a graceful arc, and at the highest point began to fall with its own inertia and weight. With the sound of breaking wind, the cannonball finally hit the barricade target that had been exposed long ago at the end of its life.

Inside the barricade, a magician of the Holy Demon Emperor country is still proudly boasting with his companions: "Don't worry, this barricade is very strong, plus our magic defense barrier, the 203mm caliber Artillery, there's nothing we can do about it!"

His companions looked at a few soldiers of the Holy Demon Emperor country in armor and many people's puppet soldiers, and thought that they were in the same place. The place is very safe.

In the next second, their tragedy began. A huge steel cannonball smashed the magic defense barrier, then pierced the cement stone slab above their heads, pierced through a thin steel plate that was deliberately reinforced, and finally inserted in front of everyone.

The time-delayed fuze started to work in the next second. In the eyes of everyone, the shell expanded and shattered, and the explosives inside burned and exploded, eventually destroying everything in the barricade. With the canopy cover of the barricade, they were lifted into the air together.

Across the rubble, Alanhill's grenadiers felt the ground tremble beneath them. They watched with curiosity as the barricade exploded, the thick reinforced concrete roof, just like that. It flew into the air and shattered.

Everything shuddered violently with the explosion, and then the loud noise made everyone's ears buzz. Everyone didn't know what happened for a while, and some even thought that a small atomic bomb was exploding in front of them.

Of course, this is an exaggeration. A shell of about 250kg is more powerful than an aviation bomb of the same mass and at worst. But the shock was real. After all, the barricade bunker exploded, and the scene was really spectacular.

Over there, the huge explosion had not yet fallen, and further away, another building housing countless puppets was razed to the ground in the explosion. Although the cannonball landed on the left side of the building, it still used its enormous power to destroy the already weak building.

Immediately after, a third explosion sounded, and huge black smoke rose into the air. In the Kau Nia City area, all the soldiers of the Holy Demon Emperor country trembled in the explosion.

"Don't they have no bomber support? Isn't it cloudy and rainy?" A soldier asked his comrades in arms, holding his weapon, almost collapsed. They made it through the rain, only to find that Alanhill's attack was still sharp.

"Kaunia can't hold it anymore." A veteran soldier looked at the exploding block in front of him and murmured, the rain hit him on the Saint Demon Emperor's national armor, and issued a ding ding dong The sound of dong.

......

The Archon walked among the ruins with an ugly face. He held the long sword around his waist and followed behind the black clothed person from the puppet empire. In front of him is the once brilliant Bellevue, and now, the brilliance here has turned into smoke.

The once tall magic towers and those carved buildings are now already not in. There are collapsed rubble and gravel everywhere, and there are heart-pounding apocalyptic scenes everywhere.

Walking beside the Archon is a general in charge of the rescue work of Bellevue. The power of the bomb was very terrifying, and almost all buildings were destroyed in an instant."

"We were looking for the corpses in the rubble, but with little success. The central area of the explosion has nothing... ...not just the corpse, even the building can't be found." The general stepped over a piece of gravel, his voice filled with incomparable sadness.

No one from the Holy Demon Emperor would not be sad to see Bellevue today. This place used to be the pride of the Holy Demon Emperor, but now it has been completely wiped off the map.

Although Alanhill did not use nuclear weapons again, the fear that shrouded everyone's heart could not be easily eased.

"The number of casualties hasn't been counted yet?" The chief consul stopped beside the corpses that had deteriorated due to the weather in a row waiting to be dealt with. He covered his nose with his hands, and asked.

"We have no way to count, and some of the dead don't even have corpses, including more than a dozen high-level magicians sent by the puppet empire for reinforcements...no corpses have been found." The general replied.

"And... the number of casualties is still increasing." After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, the general continued to speak.

The Archon frowned and looked towards the other party: "What do you mean?"

"The past few days were fine, but too many evil things happened before. Many soldiers who participated in the disaster relief fell ill, they were like infected with the plague, their bodies festered, then internal bleeding, and finally died quickly..." The general looked at the replied corpse under his feet.

He lifted the head, looked towards the pale-faced Archon, and continued to explain: "However, this phenomenon has disappeared recently, and the soldiers who enter Bellevue are not physically fit. There will be some bad symptoms."

Hearing the other party's words, the Grand Archon's face recovered a little. However, he still turned around and walked out, instructing as he walked: "Do the finishing work as soon as possible, if possible... The reconstruction work can also be started as soon as possible."

"Your Excellency the Archon... we have not Any materials to rebuild here." The general followed quickly, glanced at the black clothed person behind the Grand Consul, and said anxiously: "All the materials have been sent to the front line, we have nothing..."
