Chapter 500: Mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood (2000 votes plus update)

   "Get into position and prepare to fight!" The officers on the German front line shouted loudly.

   Countless British and French allied forces began to attack, which undoubtedly brought great pressure to the German troops on the front line. However, they were not intimidated by it. Yesterday, facing the powerful firepower of the British and French allied forces, they were able to launch an offensive and defeated the British and French allied forces in one fell swoop. Not to mention now, they are defending, and the British and French allied forces are attacking.

   "Machine gunners are ready, put them closer before firing. Let the British and French allied forces have a good taste of our powerful firepower!"

   A series of general-purpose machine guns and squad machine guns have been erected on the trenches. The long ammunition chain extends all the way into the ammunition box.

   "Fire!"

  On the artillery position behind the German army, the muzzles of the 75mm field guns have been raised. With the commander's order, the 75mm field guns started shelling.

  The dense shells roared and smashed at the soldiers of the British and French coalition forces who were attacking, like raindrops falling from the sky.

   "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

  Intensive explosions sounded in the queue of the British and French coalition forces, and shrapnel shot out, easily harvesting the lives of the soldiers of the British and French coalition forces. The air wave from the explosion of the shell even swept many people directly into the sky. At this moment, the human body appears so fragile.

  The German army used more than two thousand 75mm field guns to open fire on the British and French allied forces. The powerful shelling directly caused the attacking British and French allied forces to pay a great price. I don't know how many soldiers of the British and French allied forces fell on the way to attack and were torn to pieces.

  However, the British and French allied forces used a large number of troops to launch an offensive, which enabled them to hold on even in the face of heavy German shelling. But their morale inevitably began to drain.

   "Marshal, the German artillery fire was too fierce, and the attacking troops suffered a lot of losses." Admiral Foch said.

Marshal Xiafei nodded: "If we can win this battle, our army must also carry out reforms. Strengthen the artillery and machine gun firepower of the troops. The strength of the troops is no longer the only factor that determines the outcome of the battlefield. .”

  General Foch nodded, but it is undoubtedly very, very difficult for them to defeat the German army and win this time. Perhaps, what awaits them is another failure!

   "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

  The mortars and grenades on the German frontline also started firing, and more dense shells and grenades fell into the queue of the British and French allied forces, further increasing their casualties.

  Although, the power of mortars and grenades is not great. But dealing with ordinary soldiers, there is still no problem. The explosion of a shell can often take the lives of several soldiers.

   "Damn it, how many artillery pieces did the Germans have? Do they want to wipe us all out with these bombardments?" A French officer cursed.

  However, in the face of the fierce German shelling, they still had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to attack.

"Da da da!"

  The machine guns on the German positions also began to fire, and the intensive firepower immediately dealt a greater blow to the attacking British and French allied forces. The German troops are equipped with machine guns with significantly higher firepower than the British and French allied forces. At the same time, the rate of fire of the machine gun is also faster. The crossfire formed by these machine guns directly blocked the attack direction of the British and French allied forces.

  Countless soldiers of the British and French coalition forces were directly blocked there as if they had hit an invisible wall, and their heads were broken. A large number of soldiers, hit by machine gun bullets, fell to the ground screaming. Their corpses were piled on the ground layer upon layer, and blood flowed from these corpses, soaking the soil.

"Da da da!"

  A machine gunner of the German army numbly pulled the trigger. A belt with 250 rounds of bullets was shot out in less than half a minute. The deputy shooter immediately replaced the ammunition belt so that the machine gun could continue shooting. The whole process was smooth and smooth, and it only took a few seconds. This allowed the German machine guns to form almost uninterrupted powerful firepower. And this naturally caused great casualties to the British and French allied forces.

   "Mortar? What about the 10,000-square-meter mortar? Kill the German heavy machine guns, otherwise, we will be suppressed here forever." A British officer shouted loudly.

  But the next second, a mortar shell exploded beside him, tearing the British officer to pieces.

   "God! What should we do if the officer is dead?" A group of British soldiers suddenly didn't know what to do. If they could, they would definitely choose to run away immediately, escaping from this battlefield like Shura's hell.

  However, retreating without an order is tantamount to desertion. What awaits them is a trial by a military court, and they may even lose their lives. This allowed these British soldiers to bite the bullet and continue to attack behind other troops.

"Da da da!"

  A general-purpose machine gun and a squad machine gun of the German army formed a crossfire. The British and French soldiers who attacked here have already paid an extremely heavy price.

   But they still have nothing to do with it.

   A few minutes later, a mortar moved up, and the gunner was ready to fire after aiming at the target.

  But the German machine gunners also seemed to be aware of the threat, and immediately turned their guns and fired at the enemy. The gunners of the British and French allied forces were sieved before even the shells could be put into the mortar.

   Another British-French soldier tried to pick up the shell and put it into the barrel.

"Snapped!"

   A clear gunshot sounded, and the soldier's neck had been knocked off, and blood was oozing out.

   After changing several people in a row, the coalition mortars successfully fired.

  Perhaps because of their better luck, the first shot of this mortar destroyed a general-purpose machine gun of the German army, not only blowing the machine gun into parts. At the same time, the machine gunner was also killed.

   "Good job! Attack, attack immediately, and break through the German defense line." A British officer ordered loudly.

  But in less than a minute, another machine gun started firing. The dense bullets shot over, directly causing the soldiers of the British and French coalition forces to fall to the ground like cutting wheat. The rest of the coalition soldiers also had to lie on the ground, not daring to raise their heads. The bullets flew over their heads with a 'whoosh, whoosh', making people's scalp numb, for fear of being hit by bullets.

  Although the British and French allied forces organized a powerful offensive, they were still smashed in front of the solid German defense line.
