Even targets over 7,000 meters can be defeated.

Now not only are airships no longer safe, even airplanes are no longer safe.

Especially when Stuka dive bombing, encountering large-caliber anti-aircraft guns is very dangerous.

It seems that the Stuka's main mission from now on can only be to hunt down French airships and conduct reconnaissance.

It’s better not to let them carry out bombing missions like this.

However, if you want to shoot down the Stuka, you have to concentrate a lot of anti-aircraft fire.

Be focused! Hey, there is a chance.

In a flash of lightning, Li Xiao thought of a good idea.

"Tu tu tu tu!"

"Tu tu tu tu!"

"Tu tu tu tu!"

The roar of tractors could be heard behind him, and Li Xiao looked back. A long line of dozens of tractors was driving over on the muddy road.

It was obvious that they were the troops we just saw from the airship.

Judging from the number, it should be the size of a battalion.

In the morning, Stewie mobilized a regiment to defend Svet Loyal. Unexpectedly, he arrived at the position at three o'clock in the afternoon.

Li Yuan jumped off the tractor, feeling like he was stepping on cotton under his feet, one foot was deep and the other was shallow.

The first thing many soldiers did when they jumped out of the car was to bend over and vomit.

This ghost road is really bumpy.

"Hurry up and come down, all companies must assemble! Count!" Li Yuan shouted and gave the order.

"Hey, that battalion commander, come here!" Li Xiao frowned and waved to Li Yuan.

Li Yuan looked back!

This guy was surrounded by a group of officers, ranging from major to second lieutenant. He had no shoulder patches or cap badges, and no military rank.

He was just wearing the winter combat camouflage of the Ming Army, and on his head was a dog-skin hat that was only worn by the old Liao Army.

I don’t know this guy, but I saw a group of military officers around him and an airship parked two or three kilometers away.

Li Yuan hesitated for a moment, then walked over.

"What's your name?" Li Xiao looked at Li Yuan and asked.

"Li Yuan, commander of the 203rd Regiment of the Ninth Division, Mongolian Battalion. Who are you?" Li Yuan looked Li Xiao up and down.

"Who told you that you can have soldiers gather near the battlefield to report their numbers?

With people standing so close together, one cannonball can kill an entire company?"

Li Xiao really wanted to evacuate the battalion commander directly. He didn't know any common sense about combat. This would kill a lot of people!

"What do you do?" Li Yuan looked at Li Xiao unhappily.

"Shut up, this is...!" Shunzi shouted coldly, but Li Xiao stretched out his hand to stop him.

Because he discovered that the soldiers who got off the bus were gathering in squad units.

And the distance is more than ten meters!

Li Xiao knew that he had mistakenly blamed this guy named Li Yuan.

This is a good battalion, with junior officers and veterans playing a good role.

"You don't need to know who I am, trench diggers and bulldozers will be transported by airship in a moment.

You must build fortifications quickly. I guess the Russian attack will not last long.

I guess you only have one night, or at most one morning."

Li Xiao put his hands behind his back and said while looking at the terrain.

"Here, dig a trench. The excavated soil should be piled to one side. Your soldiers will wait on the side to pile a layer of soil and water it.

The soil will freeze at night, which can greatly increase the fortification's ability to withstand shelling and bullets.

Did you see that patch of reeds? Burying more mines in the reeds can serve as a warning.

When laying mines, lay out the drawings so that you can determine the enemy's location based on the location of the smoke.

The mortars are marked with various elements on the map. As soon as gun smoke is seen, the mortars will be adjusted to fire at the various elements immediately for bombardment.

Also, the mortar position should be arranged in an underground bunker. At least it cannot be seen from the ground!

Holes to avoid blasting should be dug diagonally and there should be drainage ditches on both sides.

Use an iron chimney to lead the flue farther away from the blast hole.

In this way, the stove can be lit in the shell shelter at night.

It’s so fucking cold in Russia at night, even if you have cotton-padded clothes, you might freeze to death.”

Li Yuan looked at the man in front of him in surprise. Some of what he said was known to Li Yuan, but some Li Yuan did not know.

For example, while digging a trench, water the excavated soil.

When water drips and turns into ice at night, the soil will definitely be frozen solid.

It is harder for a bullet to penetrate this kind of soil than to penetrate a stone.

There was also a stove being lit in the cannon shelter at night. Li Yuan had never thought that a stove could be lit in the cannon shelter.

When I was on the front line the past two days, I was usually beaten at night.

By the middle of the night, my whole body was numb from the cold.

Every time at this time, Bayan would howl like a wolf.

Sometimes, I even wished that the French would fire a few artillery shells. At least, the shell crater would be warm for a while.

"Who are you?" Li Yuan looked at the man in front of him again. With this guy's actual combat experience, he could be a division commander.

"What I said must be implemented as soon as possible.

Pull up the field phone as soon as possible. If there is anything missing, ask the logistics. When it gets dark, the airship will deliver it to you.

Right!

Let your cooking team make some mutton soup and drink it to keep you warm at night."

Li Xiao saw more than twenty sheep pulled down from a tractor.

As for the Mongolian camp, they always carry sheep with them wherever they go. It’s probably a habit left over from the time of Genghis Khan!

The Mongolian people's feelings towards sheep are very unique.

"I heard that your Mongolian camp has a supply of wine. Try to keep your soldiers from drinking as much as possible. Firstly, drinking will cause trouble, and secondly, it is an illusion that drinking can warm the body.

Strong alcohol will only make your body lose heat faster.

Also, have your soldiers change their socks. Always wearing wet socks will cause your feet to get sick."

Li Xiao is like a menopausal aunt, guiding Li Yuan endlessly.

It's not that Li Xiao has nothing to do, but the death of the pilot today gave him a huge stimulus.

After all, Europeans are not stupid.

Their military technology will closely follow the footsteps of the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming army built an airplane, but the technology content of that thing was too high, and it couldn't be built in a while.

But it doesn't matter, people can research large-caliber anti-aircraft guns.

As long as the Ming army appears on the battlefield, they will follow it and study it.

Even if you can't get the actual object, at least you have the appearance to refer to.

Although the diesel engines currently manufactured in the West are still very crude and their service life is not good enough.

But craftsmanship can be improved, especially the Prussians' pursuit of craftsmanship, which gave them terrible capabilities in manufacturing.

If you give this battalion commander a few words of advice today, you might be able to save the lives of many soldiers.

In a war, many of your enemies will die, but only a few of your own people will die.
