Due to the lack of intelligence, the three bases invariably chose to retreat to their own occupied areas, and considering the possible interception of the Dugi army, the three bases did not divide their troops.

The number of the Dugi army was still relatively detailed before the fortified walls of the Dugi Province were cleared, and even if the Dugi Province expanded its army, it would not be possible to exceed 300,000.

Even if the Dugi army wants to go all out to kill an advance base, it will have to take a lot of effort, that is more than 500,000 people, even if it is not easy to wait in line for the Dugi army to capture prisoners.

Time was pressing, the coalition forces quickly took action, the baggage was gone, the troops were all lightly armed, and the soldiers without weapons were all arranged in the middle of the departure sequence, so as not to have no power to resist when they encountered the Dugi army.

From the secret? When the forward troops from the county base were blocked, there were less than 100,000 coalition soldiers who walked out of the base.

The coalition soldiers who have been on the territory of the Tang Dynasty for several years have very experienced combat experience. After being shelled, they quickly dispersed and hidden, waiting for the attack of the Tang army, but after waiting for more than ten minutes, they didn't even hear the gunshots.

The spearhead tentatively advanced to the front, but was still not attacked, and only then did he understand that this was a means for the Dugi army to delay the coalition army. I didn't even eat breakfast, and time was very tight for the coalition forces.

After discovering the intentions of the Togi army, the coalition forces accelerated their advance. However, after walking less than a mile, they were shelled again, and the scouts who opened the way in front were also sniped.

This time, the coalition forces were not fooled and quickly launched a charge. But the Dugi army was too extravagant, and directly came to block it with artillery fire. Within minutes, more than a hundred shells were smashed on the path of the coalition charge.

By the time the artillery fire stopped, the coalition front of more than a hundred people was lost. Finally found the artillery position of the Dugi army, but unfortunately they were left with only a dozen mortars and scattered shell boxes, and the artillerymen were long gone.

Because of the delay caused by the two shellings, the follow-up troops all came up, and the officers who led the team met and decided to keep the attack formation moving forward.

Almost at the same time as the order was given. A telegram urging the rear command came, telling them to ignore the harassment of the Togi army and find the town as soon as possible. Collect food.

Along the way to the artillery shells, the losses of the coalition forces were very large, but the follow-up troops were manned, and the coalition forces directly ignored the wounded soldiers and the remains of the soldiers who were killed. Attack in turns.

Just ahead of them. There were a large number of bullets and mines on the ground, as well as scattered artillery, and after firing the shells, they didn't even want weapons, they turned and left, and the forward units of the coalition forces, without seeing the enemy, suffered heavy losses.

However, the speed of the coalition's advance. It's still very good, half a day. The forward troops walked more than thirty miles. It's just that the few villages and towns that I passed along the way were all empty, and not a single grain of grain was found. Anger, grievance, and frustration blended together, and the coalition soldiers burned everything they could in the town.

After running for a long time, I still have to rest, but I don't have anything to eat, most of the soldiers can only drink some water, and if they are smarter, they can also find some wild vegetables and grass, and cook some soup to drink.

The Dugi army was too ruthless this time, and the crops that were not ripe in the field were all cleaned up. When the coalition officers slandered the Dugi army too ruthlessly, they didn't expect that their arson behavior made the people in front of them hate them even deeper, and when the wall was cleared, even the grass on the ground was eager to be eradicated.

After a short rest of half an hour, the coalition army continued to move, hunger brought a lot of motivation, and the whole army knew that if they could not find food as soon as possible, they would have to sit and wait for death.

The afternoon journey became difficult. The forward troops of the county base entered the hilly area, and the Dugi Army, where they fought a beautiful blocking battle.

The overwhelming artillery fire, and the bullet mines of the team, made it difficult for the charging coalition forces to move an inch, and the snipers were in the distance, calling the machine gunners by name.

The battle lasted less than ten minutes before the coalition forces had to retreat, their heavy firepower, all dumb, not because of how many machine gunners were killed by snipers. There are many coalition soldiers, but how can they fight without bullets?

Half an hour later, the second wave of the coalition attack, after the arrival of the follow-up troops, began again. However, the Dugi army seemed to be very resolute, and the shells were smashed on the road of the coalition charge as if they did not need money.

The number of snipers seems to have increased more than tenfold, and none of the machine guns of the coalition forces were able to speak, either being used by snipers to attract targets, or being eliminated by mortar guns at a given point.

The soldiers of the coalition army did not see the soldiers of the Dugi army, and this round of attacks had to be stopped.

However, the number of coalition troops was quite large, and the troops behind drove up in a steady stream, and after waiting for two hours, the coalition army organized a regimental charge.

This time, the coalition forces finally saw the soldiers of the Dugi Army, and the Dugi Army that was blocking the attack in front was simply too extravagant, and all of them were equipped with light and heavy machine guns.

However, on the side of the coalition forces, not only are there not many machine guns, but they are also the focus of the snipers and mortars of the Tsuki army.

The charge of a regiment did not even come within range of the rifles, and only dead bodies and wounded soldiers were left everywhere. The presence of bullet mines seriously hampered the speed of attack of the coalition forces.

After walking for most of the day, the coalition army, which was still empty-stomached, should have run out of strength for a long time, but after two hours, the coalition army, which was forced to be in a hurry, organized a larger-scale attack, and a division charged!

This time, the coalition soldiers who participated in the attack ate a meal of green food, cooked with grass and leaves. This was also their last meal, and in the face of the powerful firepower of the Togi army, the coalition forces, which had only rifles and a small number of machine guns, were also blocked by a massacre style.

This battle was fought until the evening, and more than 20,000 people went to heaven before and after, and the charging road was covered with the corpses of the coalition soldiers.

On the side of the Dugi Army, the artillerymen were all soft, not because they couldn't bear it, but because they really had no strength. The shoulders of the machine gunners, none of which were not swollen.

However, they were able to kill and wound a large number of enemies, and the soldiers were so excited that they forgot about their tiredness, and if it were not for the order, they would be reluctant to abandon their positions.

After fighting for half a day, they lost one and a half divisions, but the coalition forces had to attack overnight, because they couldn't afford it, and everyone was empty.

The night attack was very smooth, except for the unlucky guy who stepped on the bullet mine, the other soldiers rushed into the position of the Tugi army very smoothly, but unfortunately, the enemy in the position had already left.

After a whole day's journey, the coalition forces also had to stop. The forest world is still good, and the coalition forces have collected a lot of grass and leaves, and finally fill their bellies. (To be continued......)
