Thin green smoke filled the battlefield, and the sun's rays were blocked, making it appear yellow-orange.
Wesley's order was conveyed to the frontline officers, who immediately organized their soldiers and prepared for a charge.
Under the artillery fire of Dasong's army, the coalition soldiers shuttled through the trenches and came to the first row of trenches.
At this time, small ladders were placed against the trench wall, and the officer arranged the order in which the soldiers climbed out of the trench.
Ready, the soldiers began to await the order for the final charge.
"God, we are dead." A soldier named Scott almost collapsed.
He was part of the British Army and was among the first to charge.
For him, the wait before charging was like execution, extremely torturous.
"Shut your stinky mouth, we won't die, and we will also twist off the heads of the Dasong soldiers across from us." The soldier beside him cursed.
He was angry, but only he knew that this anger was just to cover up his fear.
More soldiers remained silent, just holding the rifles in their hands tightly, breathing rapidly and heavily.
There are also veterans with calm expressions. They are already cold-blooded battlefield killers.
But even so, some of them prayed silently, hoping that they could survive on the battlefield.
For them, this war was undoubtedly the most difficult war they had ever experienced.
For the first time, an army fought against them with more advanced muskets and artillery than them.
"Shhhhhh..."
After a short wait, the officer who received the order blew his whistle, which was the signal to charge.
"Quick! Quick! Quick!" the officer urged while blowing his whistle.
Long-term rigorous training turns soldiers into obedient machines on the battlefield.
Although they were frightened, they climbed up the ladder and climbed out of the trench.
For a time, a large number of coalition soldiers came out of the trench and rushed to the Dashong trench on the opposite side.
"Boom boom boom..."
When the coalition soldiers charged, the coalition's howitzers stopped shelling to prevent accidental damage.
But the artillery fire from the Azure Dragon Army and the Suzaku Army was still going on.
They ran and fell on the path of the charging coalition soldiers, and soldiers were blown away from time to time.
There were also soldiers who continued to move forward through the craters and approached the Dasong trench.
at the same time.
The changes in the coalition forces fell into the eyes of Qinshan and Guantong.
Looking at the coalition soldiers climbing up from the trench, both of them were startled.
"The coalition general on the other side is a bit brave, and he actually defused our bombardment like this." Guan Tong frowned.
You will die if you are bombed in vain, and you will die if you charge and counterattack, but the counterattack may still kill some enemies.
Obviously, the opposite general figured this out.
"It's a pity that he was self-defeating." Qin Shan sneered, "Besides, this was just a hysterical act at his wits' end."
Guan Tong looked at Qin Shan and sighed, "You are getting more and more powerful now. You are so elegant and elegant. I, a big old man, can't compare with you."
"Excuse me, I just learned a few more words." Qin Shan didn't take it seriously, "You have to be willing to recognize a few more words to be better than me."
"It's better to kill me." Guan Tong heard this and smiled.
Then he suddenly said seriously: "It's better to deal with these coalition soldiers who are rushing over now."
Since they did not place soldiers in the trenches in front.
Union soldiers rushed through the shelling zone and jumped into their trenches.
Now, they need to kill these coalition soldiers who jumped over.
"You don't have to worry about these coalition soldiers, just leave them to the Qinglong Army soldiers. Your most important task now is to occupy the other side's coastal trench fortifications." Qin Shan said.
After a pause, he continued, "The navy is bombing over and over again, so these shells cannot be wasted."
Guan Tong understands.
If they occupy the flank, the opponent's trench fortifications will be useless.
"Leave it to me." He licked his lips and turned to leave.
Not long after, the soldiers of the Suzaku Army headed towards the coast and rushed towards the opponent's trench fortifications along the beach.
At the same time, Qinshan also gave orders to the Qinglong Army to retake the front trench.
The soldiers of the Qinglong Army who stayed in the trench at the rear fought forward under the leadership of their generals.
They passed through trenches one after another, and when they were still 400 meters away from the first row of trenches, suddenly coalition soldiers rushed into the corridor and came to them.
These coalition soldiers immediately raised their rifles and fired.
But the soldiers of the Qinglong Army kept their guns pointed forward as they marched, and they pulled the triggers faster than their opponents.
"Bang bang bang..."
Just one second apart, gunfire rang out from both sides. The coalition soldiers were hit first and fell one after another.
Only because the muzzle of the gun was deflected when being shot, the coalition soldiers' shots were inaccurate. The Qinglong Army soldiers were also injured, but they were not fatally injured.
Upon seeing this, the soldiers at the rear immediately dragged him into the trenches on both sides of the corridor.
At this time, they realized that the enemy had arrived.
When it flashed like a trench, they took out grenades and threw them towards the trench where the coalition soldiers had just rushed out.
"Boom, boom, boom..." An explosion sounded.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Qinglong Army soldiers immediately stood up and rushed towards the trench occupied by the coalition soldiers.
At this time, the coalition soldiers had not yet recovered from the grenade explosion, and were shot one by one by the Qinglong Army soldiers before they could stand up.
When the soldiers at the front were fighting with the coalition forces.
The machine gunner pushed the machine gun into the reserved machine gun pit on the trench fortification.
These machine gun pits are shallow pits dug on the ground between two trenches, with a slope dug to lead to the trench and sandbags piled up to prevent shelling and shooting.
Entering the machine gun pit, the machine gunner can shoot the coalition soldiers climbing up from the coalition trench to prevent their support so that the Qinglong soldiers can clear the trench.
"Da Da Da..."
After the preparations were completed, one machine gun after another spewed out flames.
The crossfire formed a barrage covering the blank area between the trenches of both sides.
The coalition soldiers who were charging fell in a pool of blood one after another, and the bodies soon covered the ground.
Under the shooting of machine guns, the actions of the coalition soldiers were immediately curbed.
The coalition soldiers who climbed up from the trenches continued to die in front of the position.
This sudden situation naturally aroused Wesley's idea.
Hearing the "Da Da Da" gunshots, his face changed.
Through the telescope, he observed that the charging soldiers suffered a large number of casualties in a short period of time, and drops of cold sweat flowed from his forehead.
"Really, what Ashur said is true, Dasong really has muskets that can fire continuously." Wesley's hand holding the telescope trembled slightly.
Just as he was feeling panic, an officer came in front of them with a pale face, "Admiral, as we expected, the Dasong army is coming from the beach. They are numerous and are heading towards the trench fortifications on the side."
