The summer night is relatively short, and it will be dawn after five o'clock.

But it was not yet five o'clock, and it was only about two o'clock in the evening.

In the Xia Kingdom camp, the fire swayed.

The camp was crowded with people and gun cars were pushed.

The soldiers wearing protective gear, carrying rifles, bullets, and a few grenades in their waists.

Boxes of shells were loaded into iron boxes and placed on a baggage truck to be pushed to the front line.

The wheels of the car made long marks on the ground, and countless steps were used to stomp the soft mud firmly.

Everything is going on silently.

Except for the generals and commanders in command of each department, most people dare not make a sound.

Because this morning's battle was a "surprise attack"!

It is not surprising to say that it is "strange", because there are many counselors and advisors among the enemy. We must have expected that the Xia Congress would find the most relaxed time to start the war.

Therefore, even before dawn, they will arrange heavy troops to prevent them.

Another reason why Chen Li insisted on starting a war at this time was to hide.

Night is the best disguise. If you don’t light a torch in the dark, your steps will be lighter and you will not be able to detect the movements in the distance between dozens of meters.

What's more, the two armies are more than ten kilometers apart.

Using the cover of night, the vanguard army of Xia Kingdom was 50,000, carrying advanced weapons and moving forward quietly and steadily.

90 minutes, the distance is within 5 kilometers.

On the way, Chen Ping and Yunqi took action once each, and cut off several enemy secret whistles.

Five kilometers ahead is the enemy camp, and the howitzer range has completely covered the enemy camp.

But infantry and mechanical cannons can't hit that far.

Chen Li ordered to divide 30,000 people to ambush the forests on the left and right roads ahead.

The remaining 20,000 follow Shigu to attack the outpost and continue to approach.

It takes only 10 minutes to march on two kilometers.

Chen Li used hearing instead of eyes, confirmed that Shi Gu and others had already been in place, and immediately waved his hand and issued an offensive order.

"fire!"

Boom ~

A roar started the decisive battle between the Xia Kingdom and the Central Kingdom!

Bang bang bang bang bang

Hundreds of cannons fired together, and heavy howitzers were thrust out from the bottom. The thrust from the fire burst into the sky, drew a beautiful parabola, and fell into the enemy's camp.

Then there are devastating fireworks.

"Enemy attack!!!"

An alarm sounded in the left-wing national protection camp of the Central Kingdom.

In fact, even if no one shouted, the explosion caused by hundreds of shells was enough to prove it all.

Late at night, they were not all sleeping, and their garrison power had never relaxed.

When he discovered the enemy's attack, he immediately responded in the shortest time, organized himself and prepared to fight against the enemy.

"Elephant Armor Army, Rhino Armor Army, arrange defense!"

"Tiger Roar Army, Lion Roar Army, attack and fight!"

Just one left-wing national protection army has 400,000 troops.

With the command of the Left Army Commander, they all started to act in the fire.

During the process, someone was inevitably hit by shells, died or seriously injured.

However, compared with the number of hundreds of thousands, this loss is not obvious and cannot hold back the entire army.

They quickly took action, with a total of 200,000 people leaving the moat camp and rushing towards the place where the artillery fire broke out.

Among them, the vanguard was 50,000 Rangers equipped with cavalry and shooting equipment. In the era of old weapons, they could dominate the world and rarely encounter opponents.

But their opponent is Xia Kingdom, who has entered a new weapon era!

When the Rangers held a torch and rushed to 1,500 meters ahead of the Xia Pioneer Army, the sound of machine guns rang out.

Dada dada dada dada

The mechanical cannon is an enhanced version of the heavy machine gun, with a long range and great power. Not to mention the light cavalry, even if the heavy cavalry comes, it can penetrate the protective gear with one bullet, which will cost people's lives.

The cross mechanical cannons were scattered at a fan-shaped angle, and the Rangers of the Central Kingdom were beaten up and wailed.

But they are many people after all.

It is unrealistic to try to stop tens of thousands of people from the tens of thousands of people.

With the dense rain of bullets, they rushed to within a few hundred meters.

Going further, it is the attack range of riders.

But at this time, even more intense gunfire sounded!

The gunmen who were ambushing the forests on both sides raised their weapons and launched round after round of shooting at the Rangers.

Horses neighed and people screamed.

The Tiger Roar Army Rangers, the Central Kingdom, which was once invincible, lost thousands of people before they even encountered the enemy.

But they finally rushed to the enemy, and the archers could take action!

Tens of thousands of people were archers. They pulled their longbows and shot arrows in unison, covering the front with feather arrows like rain.

A small number of them even held homemade muskets and rifles taken from Xia soldiers.

Their counterattack quickly worked. Many people in the Xia Kingdom's Pioneer Army were zombies in front of the Rain of Arrows.

The people of Xia are not invincible. Their protective gear cannot protect their whole body, and they will die when attacked.

The two armies shot at each other with 50,000 people. The Xia army's guns were more powerful. In addition, they arranged ambushes in advance, which gained some advantages and the losses were smaller than those of the other party.

The suppression effect of machine guns and rifles was very good. Rangers were unable to get close to each other for a while, and the vanguards were shot and killed. Many people were tripped because of the fall of the front army, and the scene was temporarily chaotic.

Fifty thousand spearmen accelerated the efficiency of output, and round after round of bullets fired, quickly reducing the number of enemy troops.

After the enemy finally rushed to within a hundred meters, the grenade began to show its power.

The weakened version of shells was thrown out by tens of thousands of people, and the actual lethality caused was more terrifying than more than one hundred howitzers!

Accompanied by a series of explosions, the Rangers were hit hard again, with only about half of the number remaining.

But they finally came to the front of the Xia vanguard army.

The first one to step forward was a powerful general. He put away his bow and arrow, held a spear, and prepared to harvest the lives of the soldiers of the Xia Kingdom.

As a result, as soon as the spear was raised, a javelin pierced through his face and pierced his head.

"Boss, let's get on first!"

Abun shouted, and rushed up with the primitive brothers to meet the group of rangers.

Although the soldiers of Xia Kingdom can also engage in close combat, in comparison, the primitive special forces are the king in this regard!

With the attacks of Aguan and others, the Rangers were once again in despair and were ruthlessly slaughtered before they could show their powerful force.

Half an hour later...

The 50,000 ace rangers of the Central Kingdom were wiped out.

And the Xia Kingdom lost only more than 5,000 people!

After the first round of the battle, Chen Li showed a relaxed expression.

Heat weapons have a strong suppression effect on cold weapons, and he has huge advantages both as an offensive and defensive.

"The enemy is still approaching actively, and the whole army is on guard and prepare for the second round of battle!"

The battlefield does not need to be cleaned. Dead soldiers and injured horses running around are the best barriers that can block the pace of the enemy.

After the first Ranger was buried, the second enemy came was an infantry legion equipped with thousands of artillery pieces.

"Wang, how do you fight this time?" Xu Ao stood beside Chen Li on a horse, wanting to see Chen Li's strategy.

At this time, Xu Ao was already a 60-year-old. His fierceness was much less intense than when he was young, and he was replaced by calmness and ability.

"You decide." Chen Li did not express his opinion and gave the decision to Xu Ao.

"I will obey the order!" Xu Ao replied.
Chapter completed!
