Those two cannons are the eyes of Her Majesty the Queen!

Because of Wu Sangui, Bombay is the most industrially developed city in England. Now that Bombay is occupied by the Ming Dynasty, no other British city has such industrial strength.

These two 360mm giant guns cannot be manufactured in the UK.

Rogge knew that things were getting serious this time. The Ming Dynasty's sudden attack must have come towards the Fortress of Gibraltar. Otherwise, he would have blown up the two giant cannons without taking action.

"Take it back, take back the fort on the top of the mountain." Rogge pointed at the fort position on the top of the mountain and shouted.

"Yes!" Captain Spencer quickly organized his troops to attack the mountain.

Rogge quietly ordered his orderly: "Bring two horses, the strongest one."

"Yes!" The orderly went to find the horse, and Roger quickly returned to his residence, rummaging through the boxes and packing away his belongings.

Rogge knew in his heart that it was simply unrealistic to recapture the fort on the top of the mountain. Although there were only a few Ming soldiers on the top of the mountain, Rogge was certain that Ming warships would soon appear on the sea.

Without those two giant cannons, the remaining artillery was no match for the Ming warships. The fortress would fall sooner or later. If the fortress fell, he would be the scapegoat to vent his anger on.

The best way is to run away and hide in Spain with the savings that he has not had time to transport back to the UK in the past two years.

As for my wife and children in London, I can only ask God to bless them.

Captain Spencer was a top student at the British Royal Military Academy. He once led troops to fight against the Ming Dynasty in India. Before the fall of India, he luckily escaped back to Gaza by land and returned to the British mainland by boat.

As a member of the famous Spencer family, he was sent to the Fortress of Gibraltar for training. If nothing goes wrong, he will be promoted to the rank of major tomorrow.

The Ming army's firepower on the top of the mountain was very fierce. Spencer raised his head and glanced at the sky. The weather was sunny today, and there were not many clouds in the blue sky. There was no shadow of the airship anywhere!

"Push up the anti-aircraft artillery and shoot at the Ming army on the top of the mountain." Spencer glanced at the anti-aircraft artillery soldier who was also looking up at the sky.

"But His Majesty the Commander ordered them to be used to fight airships!"

"Now I am in command. Immediately use anti-aircraft guns to shoot at the Ming army on the top of the mountain. Before the Ming navy arrives, take back the position on the top of the mountain." Even though he knew that losing those two giant cannons, even if he regained the position on the top of the mountain, it would be useless.

But Spencer still faithfully carried out Rogge's orders.

For the honor of the military!

"Holy shit!" Cao Xiaoge's heart sank immediately when he saw the opponent pushing the anti-aircraft gun over.

Before he had time to alert the general-purpose machine gun team in the front bunker, the crackle of the anti-aircraft gun over there rang out.

The anti-aircraft gun's tracer bullets fired a strip of light, directly shattering the general-purpose machine gun group in the bunker into pieces. The remaining commandos did not dare to raise their heads at all, and could only huddle in the trenches and suffer.

"Mortars, knock out those two anti-aircraft guns for me." Cao Xiaoge huddled in the bunker and shouted, pulling his neck.

The commando team has two mortars, but the shells are a little short, with a total of only 60 rounds. But it is enough for the mission, and they need to hold on until seven o'clock in the morning.

It is now 6:05 in the morning. As long as we hold on for another fifty-five minutes, reinforcements will arrive.

Standing high and looking far away, a lot of black spots appeared on the sea. Cao Xiaoge could even see the black smoke coming out of the ship's chimney!

As long as he persisted for another fifty-five minutes, no! Forty minutes, he would be able to get the support of naval gunfire. This time, Li Xiu was afraid that the firepower density was not enough, so he even sent an arsenal ship over.

As long as that thing fires one round, the entire mountain top of Gibraltar will immediately turn into a sea of ​​fire.

Nowadays, the only ones that can deal with anti-aircraft guns are mortars with direct fire.

The mortar position is located at an angle on the top of the mountain, and direct firepower cannot be reached at all.

The gun squad leader was lying on the ground, biting a piece of grass and counting the two damn anti-aircraft guns. Under the cover of the anti-aircraft guns, the huge British army had begun to charge towards the top of the mountain.

The Ming Army commandos were firmly suppressed in the trenches and did not dare to show their faces.

Soon, several people carried Maxim machine guns and set up positions at the foot of the mountain. Five Maxims were lined up in a row, and raindrops of bullets immediately hit the Ming army's position, causing no less than ten casualties.

A Maxim machine gun of this caliber cannot even be withstood by a steel helmet.

"Fuck you, what the hell are you doing? Are the shells from your artillery squad waiting to be laid?"

"Bang bang!" Just after he finished cursing, the sound of two mortars being ejected was heard.

Two plumes of smoke rose up next to the two anti-aircraft guns, and the firing of the anti-aircraft guns immediately stopped. The soldiers could finally show their heads and shoot with Aka rifles below.

Compared with the single-shot rifles of the British army, the hairpin rifle can fire continuously. The lethality is completely different!

Spencer ignored the fire and hurried to the anti-aircraft gun. He saw several gunners lying on the ground wailing, and he didn't know where they were injured. Fortunately, only the people were injured and the gun was not damaged.

"Bring it down!" Spencer ordered, ordering the replacement gunner to rush up and continue shooting.

The troops in front had already rushed halfway up the mountain, and were only a hundred or ten meters away from the Ming army's forward position. Taking advantage of the Ming army being temporarily suppressed by Maxim's firepower, they advanced another fifty or sixty meters.

At that time, a single charge will be able to retake the position on the top of the mountain.

The two mortars on the Ming army's side turned to shoot at the Maxim machine gun position. The British mortars here were also unambiguous and began to greet the Ming army's position.

The Ming Army commandos were covered by mortar fire one after another, leaving not even a single body intact.

After the Maxim machine gun was blown up, it was only muted for a short while, and soon someone took over and continued to fire at the mountain.

The British army was already very close, and the Ming army had no choice but to throw grenades outward from the trench.

Some grenades fell to the ground and immediately rolled down the slope, unable to be exploded by the British troops rushing in front.

"Pull the fire and count three before throwing it!" Cao Xiaoge shouted in a hoarse voice.

I glanced at my watch and saw that the battle had only lasted eighteen minutes. The British army had already rushed within a hundred meters. Looking back, I could already see the battleship in the distance.

After countless grenades were fired, they were thrown out of the trenches with artificial delay.

The British soldiers at the front were immediately knocked down by grenades.

The British army also took risks and was blown to pieces. The people behind them immediately stepped in and continued the charge.

The Ming army was so overwhelmed by Maxim that they could not lift their heads and could only continue to throw grenades.

"Who has any more grenades? I've run out of mine."

"I've run out of mine too."

"I'm done too."

What worried Cao Xiaoge the most happened. He ran out of grenades and mortar shells. The only thing he could use now was the rifle in his hand.

But there is still half an hour before the reinforcements arrive!

Already able to see the huge body of the arsenal ship in the distance, Cao Xiaoge shouted with red eyes: "Everyone enter the fort."

Of the sixty-strong commando team, there are now only more than twenty people left, and there are still four or five injured.

"Grandma's!" Cao Xiaoge took out a red flare, lit it and then got into the fort built by the British army.

"Division Commander, red flare. They are requesting to fire on the top of the mountain!"

"Damn it!" Li Dingguo cursed. If he hadn't discovered the British airship moving nearby and was afraid of exposing his attempt, he would have arrived half an hour earlier!

"Commander, they are still in position." The staff officer knew that if he ordered the arsenal ship to bombard him at this time, there would be no living person on the hilltop.

Li Dingguo bit his cheek as hard as a stone and fired at his soldiers. It was extremely difficult to issue such an order.

On the top of Gibraltar, red flares were fired again. This means shelling the top of the mountain!
Chapter completed!
