After the coalition entered the planned attack position, they simultaneously launched an attack on the Xiping base. First, the cannons on the west and north opened fire in an attempt to blow up some Chinese fortifications.

The Hua Army did not use cement for the construction of Xiping, and the freight was too high to afford it. They still used rammed earth and masonry.

The local black labor is very cheap, so they easily built a few walls and besieged a city.

This kind of city wall has basically been eliminated in Dahua, and under the artillery of the Chinese army, this kind of city wall is vulnerable.

However, for the armies of other countries, they still have a good defensive power.

The artillery shells of the coalition forces hit the slopes of the brick and stone-wrapped rammed-earth city walls. Although they can cause a little impact and damage to the city walls, the extent is limited.

If you want to use artillery to blow up the walls of the Chinese Army, it is estimated that you will have to blow up continuously for two or three days.

Even if their gun barrels can stand, they don't have so many shells.

Therefore, it is unrealistic to simply use artillery to blow up the entire section of the wall of the Chinese army.

"Focus on one part of it."

Niang watched for a while, then decisively changed his strategy.

He intends to blast a gap so that his subordinates can rush in.

On the north side of Osade, the artillery was replaced by howitzers, mainly to kill Chinese soldiers, and there was no plan to destroy the city wall.

By killing and wounding the Chinese army, weakening the guard force and morale of the Chinese army, and then assaulting the wall and breaking the door.

The methods of the two are a little different, but the effect is similar, very poor.

Although Niang made a short gap in the end, it was still a question of whether he could rush in. And Osid's goal of trying to kill the Chinese army was not achieved, and the Chinese army hid in air-raid shelters.

Regardless of the effect, as soon as the scheduled attack time came, they bit the bullet and gave the attack order.

Subsequently, the coalition forces attacked from three directions.

The Spaniards in the east did not need to attack the city wall, but they faced a high mountain connected to the city wall. After being transformed by the Chinese army, it was more difficult to attack than the city wall.

To the west, the French artillery has not stopped, but the infantry has rushed to the position of the Chinese army, playing with the infantry artillery coordination, and there is still a look.

Unfortunately, the power of their artillery is really limited and cannot deter the Chinese army.

When their infantry entered firing range, the Chinese machine gun fired.

One shuttle down and kills more enemies than the French cannon kills.

"Continue to rush, rush into the gap and win."

The French officer shouted.

They are a little optimistic. If the Allied forces that attacked Ceuta were allowed to attack Xiping, they would not be so optimistic.

This is the first time this allied army has fought against the Chinese army, and it lacks experience.

In the process of charging, he did not make full use of the cover, and he would not be able to cover with fire, and he would cross charge. In short, it's basically a mess.

Such a charge is naturally a living target in front of the firepower of the Chinese army.

Not to mention rushing to the gap in the damaged city wall, they didn't even rush to within 100 meters of the Chinese army, and they began to retreat in embarrassment, watching Niang feel helpless.

"Commander, how can you fight this? The enemy's firepower is too fierce."

A senior officer asked.

At least ten heavy machine guns were placed on the wall of the Hua Army that was less than five hundred meters away, with an average of one at fifty meters. This kind of firepower density is quite terrifying.

You should know that Germany, which paid the most attention to machine guns in World War I, had a machine gun density of only one hundred meters in trench warfare. And this density of firepower can make it difficult for the Anglo-French coalition forces to move.

If the bullet consumption is not considered, these ten machine guns cross fire at the same time, which can seal the area directly in front of them.

If the French army wanted to charge, they could only wait for the gap between the machine gun and the bullet.

But if you expect to rush to the Chinese army in this way, it is absolutely impossible.

Faced with this situation, Niang was also dumbfounded.

He lacks experience in modern warfare, and he is at a loss for this situation.

The war in his worldview shouldn't be like this.

"Find a way to blow up all the enemy's walls."

The Niang people are very smart, but they haven't gotten used to this mode of war for a while. Facing the current predicament, he was stunned to think of a way.

Dig a tunnel under the city wall, and then use a lot of gunpowder to blow up the city wall.

When the city wall was destroyed and the Chinese army was in a panic before rebuilding the line of defense, they rushed in.

As long as they can rush in to fight in hand-to-hand combat, then the machine guns of the Chinese Army will not be effective.

Of course, this trick is not easy for them, because their army does not carry auxiliary tools such as hoes in order to be light-packed and simple.

The people of Côte d’Ivoire do not have many farm tools, they are very primitive.

This makes them want to requisition it is no good.

In desperation, Niang could only wait and see, waiting for the good news from the British and Western forces. If there is a breakthrough on the other two sides, he won't have to fight for it.

However, he was destined to be disappointed.

The British army's situation was very similar to theirs. They were all rushed, and then the soldiers spontaneously retreated because of the heavy casualties.

This wave of offensive had no other effect besides testing out the firepower density of the Chinese army.

"Without powerful artillery, this place can't be beaten at all."

Osid was even more desperate than Niang.

He had a headache and couldn't figure out how to solve this problem.

Compared with the progress of Britain and France, the progress of the Spanish army is slightly better, they almost rushed to the position of the Chinese army.

Of course, this does not mean that the Western army is more powerful, mainly because the Chinese army's firepower on this side is not so fierce.

The Chinese Army still had machine guns, but there was no one who could operate them.

This machine gun looks simple, just pull the trigger.

But in fact, in the Chinese army, machine gunners belong to the technical arms, and they enjoy much better treatment than ordinary soldiers.

There are many people who want to be machine gunners, but not every soldier can easily learn.

It is much more difficult to train machine gunners than infantry, and it also costs more. Therefore, the Chinese Army is also the principle of appropriate amount, not too much.

At this time, the problem of not having enough machine gunners was bothering them.

This is due to the fact that there are no powerful snipers and mortars among the Allied forces, and they don't know how to focus on the machine gunners of the Chinese army. Otherwise, each attack consumes a few machine gunners of the Chinese army, and after a few rushes, the Chinese army's line of defense will have problems.

Generally speaking, although the weapons of the Chinese and Allied forces have almost caught up with the First World War, the tactical level is still very rough, because they have experienced too little modern warfare, and they have not summed up much experience at all.

The same was true at the beginning of World War I. It was only after a few months of fighting, all kinds of complicated tactics were unfolded.
