Field artillery is used to attack and defend the works of temporary fortification;
to destroy or demolish material obstacles and means of cover,
and thus prepare the way for the success of other arms;
to act upon the field of battle; to break an enemy’s line or prevent him from forming;
to crush his masses; to dismount his batteries; to follow and support a pursuit and to cover and protect a retreat.
