1007 Seats
There are many VIP seats when watching racing cars, and of course there are many so-called "seats" when watching wars.
For example, if you have good physical fitness, you can definitely experience the lightness and agility of today's war by sitting in the cockpit of a fighter jet and performing an eighteen-roll roll.
For another example, if you stand on the bridge of a super battleship, overlook the distant sea, and experience the unrestrained feelings of riding the wind and waves, it is also a good choice.
For another example, putting your face on the eyepiece of the scissor scope with your hands behind your back, and looking at the enemy's position through the gaps in the barbed wire, that can also be regarded as an alternative feeling.
Of course, everything has two sides. If you are squatting in the trenches, enduring endless shelling, and being watched with artillery mirrors... then it is not a good thing.
Among the many "VIP seats", there is a viewing area that can be said to be good or bad, which is near the artillery positions of one's own side.
At this moment, Burrison is under the city wall of the Burkeland Fortress, and above his head is a fortress gun converted from a 283 mm caliber heavy railway gun that is firing crazily!
Originally, this kind of artillery was the apple of the eye of the army's artillery, and even during the battle of the destruction of the Holy Demon Empire, this kind of train artillery participated in several important battles.
However, with the passage of time, this kind of train gun, which relies heavily on railway maneuvers and gradually fails to keep up with the times in power, has become a weak point that uncles do not love and grandma do not love.
It is a pity that these basically only fired a dozen or so shells, and some expensive artillery fired only a few shells, which could no longer keep up with the combat rhythm of modern warfare.
Ever since, the treasures of the first-line combat troops had no choice but to be thrown to the second-line defense troops. Later, the second-line troops also looked down upon them, so they had to be sealed up.
It wasn't until the puppet empire surrendered and the huge mobile fortress of Burkeland became the spoils of war of the Alan Hill Empire that everything turned around.
Including the two 800mm caliber Gustav cannons given to Chris by Grand Duke Su Molai of Ironforge, almost all the railway cannons produced by the Ireland Hill Empire were all piled up on the Burkeland Fortress. .
Anyway, this fortress was given away for free, so it was piled up into an artillery fortress, a museum of ancient weapons.
Burkeland is not only equipped with two Gustav cannons, but also railway guns of various calibers, as well as a large number of rocket launchers and other weapons.
At this moment, standing under the city wall, or standing under those densely packed centipede legs,
Burrison pops a warm hamburger into his mouth.
Speaking of this hamburger, there is still a bit of experience - it was Burrison's messenger, who drove to a hamburger restaurant in Burkeland and bought it for him.
This may be the most pleasant expedition ever recorded: the combat troops are actually followed by a city, providing all kinds of warm services at any time.
Burrison can even guarantee that if Burkeland has been on the front line, the time for the front-line soldiers to retreat to the second line to rest can be extended by at least 30%!
"What are they making a fuss about... Digging out a river and then building a bridge?" While chewing on the warm burger, Burrison murmured with his ears out.
He had been listening to the sound of the cannons for more than an hour, even though he was still some distance away from the cannons, his ears had been numb from the shock.
There are at least 100 guns of various calibers firing non-stop, and the smallest caliber may be around 200mm!
As early as an hour ago, the 800mm caliber cannon shook the sky and kicked off the shelling. All the soldiers nearby were shocked by the symphony of the artillery.
Because of the need to cool down and re-aiming and reloading, the Gustav cannon that fired an hour ago made another loud noise just ten minutes ago.
The train guns with a caliber of 283mm and a caliber of 381mm are different. Their rate of fire is slightly faster, and they can fire at least three or five shots an hour.
Of course, when it is the turn of the K5 train gun, the performance of the prototype artillery is very average, and the rate of fire can be faster. With the automatic loading machine provided by the fortress, this 283mm caliber artillery can reach the limit of 11 rounds per hour. Rate of fire!
"Hmm! The sound of this artillery is nice...283mm long barrel, long range and high accuracy...not bad..." He devoured a bite of the hamburger in his hand, tearing the wrapping paper on the hamburger with one hand.
This two-slice bread with a patty is Burrison's favorite fast food because it can be eaten with hands and no utensils are required.
It is simply a great invention. First, there is no need to wash the dishes after eating, and second, it does not take up space. The third bite is convenient and quick to have meat and bread, and the fourth price is quite affordable—at least for a soldier like him, it only costs 9 silver coins each, which is not particularly expensive.
Of course, it’s not cheap anymore. At this price in the southern part of the Alan Hill Empire, you can buy almost 10 kilograms of flour, enough to feed a group of people for several days.
However, the soldiers on the front line are very rich, they can get allowances every day, and they are living a bloody life, so they are more willing to spend money on consumption.
Their spending power is considered high within the Alan Hill Empire. Some military officers may spend a lot of money in bars or other consumer places, after all, their salaries are also very impressive.
The Alan Hill Empire has always treated the army very generously, because the entire empire is built on the continuous victory of the army. From the founding of the country to the present, the Alan Hill Empire has been continuously expanding without stopping for a moment.
"Hmm... the sound of this gun is a bit muffled... maybe it's a 210mm naval gun? It's the first time I heard it... I'm not sure." Burrison stuffed the last piece of hamburger into his mouth, Said vaguely.
"There is news from the unmanned reconnaissance plane, the demon army is counterattacking! Can you believe it? They are counterattacking!" A battalion officer ran over quickly and reported to Borisen Hui sitting on the hatch of the jeep.
"Devil? Still fighting back? It's really lively today!" Glancing at the direction of the demon's position, Burrison rolled up the wrapping paper of the hamburger in his hand and threw it at his feet: "Notice 1 Company 2 Company !Ready to fight!"
"Let those guys know what real despair is!" Pulling out a cigarette and stuffing it into his mouth, Burrison took out his lighter, and the trembling flame illuminated his sharp wolf-like eyes.
The engine of the car was started, and the battalion guards in charge of the surrounding guards also heard the sound of pulling the bolt and checking the weapons.
