1855 United States Tycoon

Chapter 207 Victory

The sudden appearance of the Prussian First Army put the Austrians in a desperate situation. The Austrians halted their attack on the Second Corps in a panic, while sending light troops to seize some key positions in the rear to ensure the legion’s way back.

But how easy is it to withdraw from the ongoing battle? As for the use of lightly armed forces to seize key positions, some key positions a little further away, the lightly armed forces have already been occupied by the Prussians before they have reached it, and at a closer position, they have just occupied favorable terrain but have not had time to construct anything. The Austrians in the fortifications were quickly returned by the fierce Prussian artillery fire-the Prussians used a large number of steel artillery, the weight of these artillery was much lighter than the Napoleonic cannon, completely keeping up with the advance speed of the infantry.

When the Austrians withdrew their main force from the siege of the Second Prussian Army and prepared to ride the First Prussian Army before the fortifications were constructed, they quickly launched a counterattack. The immortal Second Prussian Army suddenly He rushed out and made a counter-attack.

Anyway, when the Austrian army is rectified and ready to launch a counterattack, um, the Prussian First Army has at least set up barbed wire and everything. Although the trenches are not deep, they can hide bullets when they squat inside. What? Go on a cannon with a grenade? This method is not bad. As long as the grenade shell can explode over the trench with a high trajectory, the killing effect on the enemy in the trench will definitely be leveraged. Just to shoot such a high trajectory, you must first build a special artillery position, um, the main thing is to have a slope with a suitable angle-because the elevation angle of the Napoleon gun is not enough, it is impossible to shoot such a high trajectory.

So while the Austrians used infantry to attack the high ground occupied by the Prussians, they hurriedly built an artillery position that met their needs. The impact of the infantry was not good, although they also killed some Prussians, and used the blasting tube produced by the McDonald Infantry Weapons Company to explode several bars of barbed wire, which fully proved the products of the McDonald Infantry Weapons Company. Reasonable design, outstanding performance, reasonable price, easy to use, safe and reliable, it is really necessary for home travel, murder and arson.

However, in the process of the Austrian breakthrough through the barbed wire, the Prussians also used the same rifle from the McDonald Infantry Weapons Company that used wireless gunpowder and magazines to tell the Austrians what is meant by accurate shooting, fast loading, and strong lethality... Jane In short, I told the Austrians what it means to teach you to be a new person in minutes.

After finally rushing through the barbed wire, the Prussians immediately dropped a lot of Macdonald Infantry Weapons Company grenades like it was raining. The latest offensive and defensive integrated grenade of the MacDonald Infantry Weapons Company uses prefabricated fragments and a steel ball jacket. After the explosion, it can produce hundreds of shrapnel, and the maximum damage range of the shrapnel is up to 35 meters. Under the blow of the defensive grenades that rained down, the Austrians were defeated even though they had also taken a strong pill.

Fortunately, the position of the artillery was finally constructed. The Austrians pushed the cannon up and prepared to attack the Prussians on the high ground. There is also a danger in doing so, that is, the Prussian artillery may counterattack. However, the Prussian cannon can't go so far, the cannon? It shouldn't have time to deploy to the high ground.

However, the facts have made the Austrians quite desperate. As soon as the artillery was in place, the Prussian shells fell down. First, the grenade shells washed the ground and hit a large swath of Austrian artillery, and then a large string of solid shells fell, destroying a lot of the Austrian army. cannon.

"How can they drag the cannon to the high ground in such a short time? This is unscientific!" An Austrian artillery officer burst into tears.

How could the Prussians drag the cannon to the high ground so quickly? The reason is simple: the Prussians use Krupp Steel’s own shares, the artillery steel technology exchanged from the McDonald Steel Company, and the steel aftermarket produced by the new artillery patent of the McDonald’s Infantry Weapons Company. Rifled gun. Because the strength of steel far exceeds that of bronze, the barrel and other stressed parts can be made thinner and thinner. In addition, the specific gravity of steel is originally smaller than that of bronze. Of course, this gun is lighter than the Austrian Napoleon gun. A lot, the overall weight is only a little more than one-third of it. In addition, when designing, Scrooge also referred to the design concept of the 92 infantry artillery of the Japanese army in World War II and the 107mm rocket launcher, one of the guerrilla three treasures, which can be quickly disassembled, so this artillery can quickly It is divided into several parts, and the largest and heaviest part, four people can also easily run with special tools. Therefore, it is much easier for this artillery to get to the heights than the Austrians thought.

After the artillery was defeated, the attack naturally failed. The unwilling Austrians organized a rare night attack. As a result, the soldiers stepped on landmines and were fired by the Prussian army, which was fully in place, with a volley of hundreds of cannons and tens of thousands of rifles. I fought back and suffered heavy losses.

On the second day, the situation became more and more broken. The heavy artillery of the Prussian First Army was in place. More than 700 cannons of the First and Second Army of all kinds fired at the Austrians one after another, and the Austrians were in a mess. The Prussian artillery even used a new type of artillery shells called propaganda bombs to disrupt the Austrian military.

"Your back road has been cut off, do you want to break through? You have hit your head in front of our line of defense more than once in the past few days. We have already built several lines of defense along the road, you Can you break through? If you avoid the road and break through, you will definitely not be able to carry your luggage and artillery. Under such circumstances, how can you resist our pursuit? It is more than two hundred kilometers from here to Vienna , Can you run that far without the heavy lifting..."

"Damn it!" General Benedek crumpled the flyer fiercely. He knew that what was said in the flyer was true, but because of this, and his powerlessness, he was particularly angry.

"Mr. MacDonald, there is new information. Prussia claims that they have surrounded 200,000 Austrian troops." Elizabeth said to Scrooge, and at the same time handed Scrooge a document.

"The victory is determined, and the war is over." Scrooge looked at the documents, and then said to Elizabeth, "Let Bond find a way to figure out the details of the battlefield. It's best to have both officers and soldiers on both sides. The depiction of World War I. This is very important for our merchandise to open up sales."

"Okay. I'll go and inform him right away." Elizabeth nodded and walked out.

A few days later, the Austrian army, exhausted of ammunition, dropped its baggage and cannons and began to break through. After paying a heavy price, most of the Austrian army highlighted the encirclement, but they lost almost all of their heavy weapons, and the army’s organization was almost completely disrupted. In the subsequent pursuit of the Prussian army, they paid a huge price, although the more than 200,000 Austrian troops ran out a full 140,000. However, these armies have lost most of their weapons and completely lost their organizational structure. It is not a short time for them to regain their combat effectiveness. And Austria now has no warriable army. So the old king who was trembling, and the gang of Junker buns immediately went uncharacteristically and began to chant the slogan of the liberation of Germany in Vienna.

"These Junker buns!" Dorothea frowned. "They didn't know that the French would immediately interfere in doing this, and wouldn't the British be happy to see them annex Austria?"

"Don't worry, although there are many buns in Prussia, there is no problem with Bismarck and the crown prince. They will accept it as soon as they see it." Scrooge said nonchalantly, "What is important now is our next step. The merchandise is promoted. Well, we want to make our products a high-quality symbol through reports on this war. You know, in the eyes of many Europeans, United States goods are synonymous with low-end bad goods. We want Taking advantage of the coverage of this war, to change this perception, at least, to make the logo of MacDonald become synonymous with high-quality products."

A few days later, the Prussians and Austria signed a peace treaty. The war is over.

Retrospective analysis of this war began to appear in various European newspapers. Before the war, almost everyone thought it would be a difficult war, but Prussia quickly defeated Austria in an almost one-sided manner. Why there is such a result has become a focus of discussion in these newspapers.

In these discussions, several companies-"McDonald Infantry Arms Company", "McDonald Wireless Communications Company", "McDonald Steel Company" were repeatedly mentioned. Military experts are all analyzing the key role played by the wireless telegraph of McDonald’s wireless communications company in the command of the Prussian army. They generally believe that without the support of radio, the Prussian First Army could not be in such a short period of time. In China, just making such a turn, it is even more impossible to form a siege to the Austrians. "The use of radio has completely changed the mode of warfare, making the division of troops that was once a taboo for military strategists, and has become the winning Magic Treasures. It will greatly enhance the generals' control over the army, and this will be the beginning of a revolution. ."

Those soldiers who have experienced the war either admired or hated the various weapons of the "McDonald Infantry Weapons Company". However, whether it is admiration or hatred, it shows the key role of this United States company's weapons in this war.
