Chapter 323 Exchange

Orange and white flames intertwined, rising on the thick city wall.

Even at a distance of 200 meters, the sound of the explosive pack exploding still made the infantrymen somewhat at a loss. The shock wave generated by the explosion point extended and spread to form a wave of dust.

The heaviest explosive pack used by the infantry was only three kilograms of explosive packs. Very few infantrymen had received special training for explosive pack throwers - they had seen the results of these powerful pure explosive packs hitting the target.

Only officers at the squad level received special training to learn how to set up and launch this simple device - it was not difficult, but everyone who used it prayed that it would not explode.

Twenty kilograms of crystal ore explosives were thrown onto the city wall with kinetic energy, and as the fuse burned out, a visible collapse gap was created on the wall.

Rocks and rubble were scattered into the air by the shock wave, and some higher-angle explosive packs accurately passed over the not-so-high city wall and fell directly into the castle area.

Compared with throwing explosive packs/bombs from high altitude, using explosive projectiles can more accurately concentrate firepower in their attack direction.

Along the predetermined direction, it falls in a circular area directly in front.

Forty-two simple explosive projectiles fired a total of 840 kilograms of explosives in the first round of attacks. Forty-two pieces of rising flickering flames made the place flash a ray of daylight for a moment.

The outer wall of the temporary bastion wall became riddled with holes in this first round of attacks.

The service life of each simple explosive projectile is three times. Soldiers do not need to show mercy to such disposable things. After firing three rounds at the fastest speed according to the process, they should prepare to attack.

After more than three times, the risk of explosion will increase significantly. No one wants a 20-kilogram explosive not to be fired, but to fall on their own face.

Part of the used launcher barrel will be recycled and recast by the territory, and the metal materials that are severely damaged or difficult to recycle will be sold to the lord market as scrap steel.

The officer rubbed his eyes, and a line of tears flowed down his face, which was somewhat blackened by the smoke. That was the price of looking directly at the suddenly rising light after his eyes were used to the dim color of the night.

The tear glands secreted tears to protect the eyes.

Stinging, temporary blindness.

The Eagle Eye Technique that had just been launched made him affected by much more flashes than others. The continuous flames rose on the city wall with gunpowder, engulfing the city wall and leaving a spherical gap.

He should obey the lord's instructions and not look directly at the bombardment area with the Eagle Eye Technique, which hurts his eyes.

Two hundred meters, the long-distance observation of the Eagle Eye Technique made him almost stand in front of the flames to observe-the destructive force was delivered to the target area.

But he couldn't help it, couldn't help but see the power that this entire simple artillery group could exert.

A soldier beside him took off the cloth strip around his waist, opened the iron marching pot, poured out some water, and handed it to the officer, asking him to clean it with this wet cloth.

The officer took the wet cloth and let the cold feeling seep into his pupils. After a pause, he realized that he should give the order to reload.

Unlike free firing, artillerymen must fire in a predetermined round.

Free firing is very easy to occur. I cannot be sure whether my friendly forces have completed firing, so the troops engaged in the attack will risk being accidentally injured by friendly fire.

The unified dispatch of volleys will not have this problem.

How much ammunition is fired in each round/how long does it last to stop and wait for the next round of volley firing.

For the soldiers who have already grasped their rifles, they are waiting for the third round of volleys to end, and the commander/lord will use signal flares to issue an order for the entire army to attack.

The explosives have created a channel for them to attack inward, but it is not enough. They have to use these explosives to continue to expand the gap in the city wall.

They have to use explosives to clear a safe forward channel for the infantry's attack.

The officer closed his eyes slightly, still a little stinging, and the white light and shadow seemed to be engraved on his retina. He reached into the steel cylinder to confirm that the temperature had dropped, and ordered the soldiers to put the small explosive packs and wooden boards in to prepare for the next round of firing.

The target of the second round of attacks will move forward, from attacking the city wall to open the attack channel to expanding the channel and killing the people inside the wall.

Ji Lin issued the artillery order, and the blue meteor streaked across the night sky again.

Cruel, maybe.

The wounded soldiers in this camp should not have been here, and the tens of thousands of infantry casualties of the natives should not have appeared.

Even this camp should not exist.

One of the culprits for all this is in the castle in front of him.

The best way to reduce casualties in war is to end the war as quickly as possible and clear all the enemies who should be killed on the battlefield.

Ji Lin is very clear about this truth. He will not hold back, and he will have complete plans, programs, and war preparations.

And never put hope on the natives, nor on the enemy.

That's ridiculous.

War is an exchange of pieces... intelligence, troops, equipment, and supplies are all chess pieces in your hand.

He knows the value of his own chess pieces, and he also knows the value of the chess pieces in the other party's hand.

But the Magic Empire doesn't know. They don't know what chess pieces Ji Lin has in his hand, and they don't know the value of the chess pieces Ji Lin holds.

He can use the right time, right place, and right people to exchange chess pieces with the other side, and use intelligence, supplies, and equipment to exchange their soldiers.

This is not art, this is not life, this is just a job.

All preparations are only to end the battle on one front as quickly as possible. Every front opened by the invaders will only increase the casualties of the natives.

Their work is to completely end a war, reduce the disaster that should have occurred, and protect the possibility of civilization.

That is the greatest kindness.

The system will score them according to the means they use in this process and adjust the type of task allocation.

Let everyone perform tasks that suit them.
