Chapter 1005 1007 SeatsThere are many VIP seats when watching racing cars, and of course there are many such so-called "seats" when watching wars ".
For example, if you have good physical fitness, you can definitely experience the lightness and agility of the current war when you sit in the cockpit of a fighter and do an 18th roll.
For another example, it is also a good choice to stand on the bridge of a super battleship, overlooking the distant sea, and experience the uninhibited feelings of riding the wind and waves.
For another example, putting your face on the eyepiece of the scissor gun team with your hands behind your back and looking at the enemy's position through the gaps in the barbed wire can be regarded as an alternative feeling.
Of course, everything has two sides. If you are crouching in the trenches, enduring endless shelling, and being visited by artillery mirrors...that's not a good thing.
Among the many "VIP seats", there is a War Zone area that is good or bad or bad, which is near the position of our artillery.
Berryson is under the city wall of the Bourkeland Fortress at this moment, and above his head is the fortress gun modified from the 283mm caliber heavy railway gun that is firing frantically!
Originally, this kind of artillery was the pearl in the palm of the army artillery, and even when the battle of the Holy Demon Emperor was destroyed, this kind of train artillery also participated in several important battles.
However, with the passage of time, this kind of train gun, which relies heavily on railway maneuvering and gradually fails to keep up with the times in power, has become a tasteless rib that my uncle does not love and does not love.
It is a pity that these basically only fired a dozen or so shots, and even some expensive artillery that fired only a few shots can no longer keep up with the combat rhythm of modern warfare.
As a result, the treasures that were once the first-line Combat Unit had no choice but to be thrown to the second-line garrison for use. Later, the second-line troops were no longer interested in it, so they could only be sealed.
It wasn't until the puppet empire surrendered and the huge mobile fortress of Bourkeland became the spills of war of the Alanhill empire that everything changed.
Almost all the railway guns produced by the Alanhill Empire, including the two 800mm Gustav cannons given to Chris by the Grand Duke Sumore of Ironforge, are all piled up to Bourke. Lan fortress.
Anyway, this fortress was given away for nothing, so it was built into an artillery fortress, a museum of ancient weapons.
Bourkeland was 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 under the legs of those densely packed centipede, Burrison stuffed a warm burger into his mouth.
To talk about this burger, there is still a bit of experience - it was Burrison's messenger who drove to a burger shop in Burkeland and bought it for him.
This may have been the most comfortable expedition ever recorded: Combat Unit has a city following it, offering all kinds of warm services at all times.
Burrieson can even guarantee that if Bourkeland has been on the front line, the time for front-line soldiers to withdraw to the second line for rest can be extended by at least 30%!
"What are they doing... digging out a river and then building a bridge?" Burrison groaned while chewing a warm burger.
He had been listening to the cannons for more than an hour, and even though he was still some distance away from these cannons, his ears were already numb from the shock.
At least 100 artillery pieces of various calibers are constantly firing, among which the smallest caliber may be around 200mm!
As early as an hour ago, the 800 mm caliber artillery roared the sky and kicked off the shelling, and all the soldiers nearby were shocked by the symphony of the artillery.
Because of the need to cool down and re-target and reload, the Gustav cannon that fired an hour ago made a loud noise just ten minutes ago.
The 283mm caliber and 381mm caliber train guns are different. Their rate of fire is slightly faster, and they can hit at least three or five shots per hour.
Of course, the performance of the prototype artillery such as the K5 train gun is very average, and the rate of fire can be faster. With the automatic loader provided by the fortress, this 283mm caliber artillery can be used. Reach the ultimate rate of fire of 11 rounds per hour!
"en! The sound of this artillery is nice... 283mm long barrel, long range and high accuracy... not bad..." He devoured the hamburger in his hand, tearing it with one hand. Wrapping paper on a burger.
The two slices of bread with a meatloaf on top of each other are Burrison's favorite because they can be eaten with the hands without the need for utensils.
It is simply a great invention. First, you don't have to wash dishes after eating, and second, it doesn't take up space. The third bite is convenient and quick to have meat and bread, and the fourth price is quite affordable - at least he only needs one 9Silver Coin to buy it as a soldier, which is not particularly expensive.
Of course, it's not cheap anymore. At this price in the southern part of the Alanhill Empire, you can buy almost 10 kilograms of flour, enough for a group of people for several days.
However, the soldiers on the front line are very rich. Everyday all has allowances to take, and they live a life of licking blood, so they are more willing to spend money.
Their spending power is also high within the Alanhill Empire. Some officers may spend a lot of money in bars or other consumption places, after all, their salaries are also considerable.
The Alanhill Empire has always treated the army very well, because the whole empire was built on the army's constant victories. From the founding of the country to the present, the Alanhill Empire has been expanding without stopping for a moment.
"Um...the gun sounds a bit muffled...it's probably a 210mm naval gun? The first time I heard it...I'm not quite sure." Burrison put the last piece of hamburger Putting it in his mouth, he said vaguely.
"There is news from the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, the demon army is fighting back! Can you believe it? They are fighting back!" An officer of the battalion headquarters quickly ran over and sat on the jeep hatch. The Burrisons report.
"Devil? Still fighting back? It's really lively today!" Glancing at the direction of the demon's position, Burrison threw the hamburger wrapping paper in his hand into a ball and threw it at his feet : "Notify 1 Company 2 Company! Prepare to fight!"
"Let those guys know what real despair is!" Pulling out a cigarette and stuffing it into his mouth, Burrison took out a lighter , the shaking flames illuminated his sharp wolf-like eyes.
The engine of the car was started, and the surrounding battalion guards who were responsible for vigilance were also pulling the bolt and checking the sound of the weapon.
