2648 Forest Ambush
"I really didn't expect that France's natural environment would be so well protected at this moment? How could it look like an industrial country!"
Shortly after more than a thousand Chinese special forces infiltrated into France like mercury, Xiao Letian also climbed a small hill at the highest point of the border under the protection of the head of state guards and elite veterans of the First Corps.
This place is already in France, but the location here is very good to see the surrounding geographical environment.
"The Alsace and Lorraine are the most important coal and iron ore bases in France. How superior is the conditions for developing heavy industry here! But when I saw it with my own eyes today, why is it still wilderness..."
"No wonder that Besmad dared to fight this battle. It turns out that he had long seen that France's external strength is fighting on the inside!"
Xiao Letian has been to the UK and visited many industrial cities in Prussia. He has never forgotten the gray sky in London. The pollution on the streets is so serious that he thinks he has returned to the imperial capital in the smog locked city in later generations.
The chimneys outside London were lined with like dense forests, with thick smoke locking in the blue sky and white clouds, and coal ash everywhere on the streets of London.
The most unsold clothes in London are white and light colors, because no one dares to wear them, and they will turn black and gray in less than a quarter of an hour.
There is also the Ruhr Industrial Zone in Prussia, with factories everywhere, and the environmental pollution is so unparalleled that it is impossible to add up. The colors in the eyes are all black and gray.
However, such serious pollution has become a kind of glory for the British and Prussians, because this pollution represents the most cutting-edge industry of the country at that time, heavy industry!
Cut off all forests, dig out coal and iron ore in the earth's crust, the furnace is swelling, and the railway network is well connected... The painted black smoke covers everything that can reach the sky!
Such a scene is shameless and not shameful at all. Instead, people will be proud of him!
In that era, heavy industry was equivalent to the cutting-edge technologies such as IT, aerospace technology, biology, electronics, network information, etc. in later generations.
Any country with strong heavy industry is like a country that can produce the top electronic chips in later generations. It is its core competitiveness!
The powerful weapon of the country produced by heavy industry has become a stinking street in the 21st century. All countries have to reduce their production capacity in the environment. However, at the end of the 19th century, heavy industry products had the highest added value in science and technology and the largest profit!
Krupp exported a 210 shore defense cannon to the Qing Dynasty, and the profit was comparable to the tea and silk of three ships. The so-called huge profits were nothing more than that!
"France, France, this is begging for food with a golden bowl. This land has not been polluted until now. The construction of heavy industrial zones is so slow? Who will lose if you don't lose!"
Wang Huaiyuan next to him smiled and said, "Isn't this a good thing... Such a vast forest is a good battlefield for our special forces members to display their skills!"
"Your summer camouflage uniform and special tactics are also available. Today is the time for actual combat!"
Xiao Letian looked at the skyline and mountain lines in the south and said softly, "It's time to start?"
...
Papa... A rapid gunfire sounded on the east side of the forest official road, and a series of bullets flew out of the jungle and shot towards the French cavalry who were resting and dining.
The tall trollsman was stirring the broth with a spoon. A bullet penetrated his back, penetrated his heart and flew out. Blood spurted out with a thud, dyeing the whole pot of broth blood red.
With a loud bang, the trumpet master's body smashed on the bonfire and sparks splashed everywhere!
The French company was shocked in an instant, but the elite was the elite. Everyone's dullness did not last for two seconds. The company commander shouted, "Enemy attack, there will be an enemy attack in the east... fire a counterattack!"
The cavalry dropped the food in his hand and jumped up from the ground, pulled the bolt of the Shaspo rifle and pulled the trigger!
Papa... The dense bullets began to shoot towards the forest, but after a round of bullets, they found it strange!
"Where is the enemy? Where is the enemy... Why can't I see people? Open fire, continue to fire and suppress..."
There was no sight of people, but bullets could still fly over to kill them. This strange scene made all the French soldiers panic.
But soon they discovered that the direction where the attacker's bullets came was sixty or seventy meters away, and there was always an inexplicable light and shadow shaking in that area.
Now you can see the advantages of Xiao Letian's summer camouflage dress. You can't see any changes when wearing this military uniform at close range. You can find wherever you hide.
However, once the distance is over thirty meters, it will be a little difficult to find. If the soldiers wearing camouflage uniforms do not move at all, then 90% of the people will not find their existence.
Now the ambush has broken out, and the shooting distance of more than fifty meters does not even remember Mauser's accuracy, but it affects the French army's sight. They only saw the flames of the muzzle burst out from different positions, and the strange swaying light and shadows.
But they can't see people, they can't see a person's appearance!
"God! Are the ghosts fighting us? What exactly is shooting us..."
"Don't worry about so many, gather fire and shoot together, ten people in a group. Wherever there is gunfire, you can shoot in which direction..."
"Open fire...cover, all the second row boards boarded up and rushed over and hacked all the attackers to death!"
More than 30 cavalrymen jumped on their horses and rushed towards the direction of attack with the firepower of friendly troops. After running for two or three steps, the horse speed did not increase, and they pulled out their sabers and raised them high!
"The Queen's Cavalry Regiment... Charge! Kill all enemies... Fight!"
Thirty war horses ran out of the momentum of thousands of troops, and the pride of the Royal Cavalry Regiment was so awesome!
"Everyone retreats... scatters and circulates... use the terrain to avoid..." A squad leader quickly gave an order, and ten special forces team members turned their heads and fled into the forest without saying a word.
The cavalry charged at this moment saw what was going on. It turned out that the sneak attackers in front of them were wearing strange clothes, colorful and messy, and everyone had a very strange cloak on their heads.
It is said that it is a cloak, which is actually a fishing net, covered with various leaves, no wonder no one can see them!
"Things that pretend to be a ghost! On behalf of the beautiful Queen, I will send you... to hell!"
"Charge! Charge!"
Thirty cavalrymen rushed forward quickly, but unexpectedly the attackers were even more cunning than the antelope. They advanced in zigzag form and cooperated with each other and fled in a fan.
These cavalry gradually could not maintain a charge formation!
The company commander behind him couldn't help but be ecstatic when he saw that the attacker was so few. "The whole army boarded the horse! Charged! Annihilate them!"
Chapter completed!
