Section 344 Single-handedly entering the battle of Laon
Zhu Yunjie and the adjutant turned to leave farther and farther away, Major General Loire was still standing at the door of the tent of the temporary headquarters for a long time, he seemed to be looking at something, but the adjutant found that the general's eyes were not in focus.
"General, please dine." The adjutant had to whisper a reminder to the general.
"Peter, do you think they'll ever come back?"
The adjutant didn't know how to answer the major general's unconscious question, but he thought for a moment and loosened his shoulders "God forbid, they need this." ”
"Perhaps, God bless them, though I hate to admit it, but I think their courage is no worse than that of our soldiers. Maybe they deserve the Golden Order of Knighthood. The major general took a deep breath, then tried his best to empty the turbidity in his lungs, and pulled the hem of his uniform neatly, the major general turned to look at the sumptuous lunch in the tent, and shook his head, "Peter, I'm not hungry, I'll go to the river embankment to have a look, you let the orderlies send these to the wounded." ”
"Yes, ah, you, General? Oh well. The bewildered adjutant carried out the general's order and began to pack the meal. But there was a vibration on the ground, and the wine in the wine glass rippled, and the adjutant quickly put down the plate in his hand, rushed to the general's side in a few steps, and then, and then he was in the same virtue as His Excellency the general, and looked at the convoy in front of him with a dull gaze against the flow of people. One after another, all kinds of wheeled armor slowly drove into the road in front of the major general, although the yellow soldiers on the car did not shout loudly, but the soldiers of the fifth division consciously got out of the way, and they all stood in the ditches on both sides of the road, looking at the armored convoy that was rolling up the dust and whistling away, some soldiers began to whistle, or desperately waved everything in their hands.
"Hey, Chinese, give us a good greeting to William's ass."
"yes, teach the damned Germans a good lesson."
"Wow, don't be soft on the Chinese, it's better to beat them to squat and pee."
"Hahaha" The soldiers of the Fifth Division laughed loudly, and their morale seemed to change in an instant. Yes, the one who was a soldier was not competitive, and how could they not be happy when they met such a fierce enemy in the blink of an eye, for the French soldiers who had just lost their comrades and brothers, the most important thing was that someone dared to teach those Germans a lesson, regardless of whether these soldiers were in the same uniform as themselves, as long as they could defeat the Germans.
The expressionless Chinese soldiers, looking at the French rout around them with whistles and cheers, most of them were confused, so they had to continue to fiddle with the machine gun in their hands, and suddenly pressed the yellow-orange-orange 12.7 mm bullet chain into the receiver of the heavy machine gun, put down the goggles, tightly grasped the handle of the machine gun without the insurance, and pointed the muzzle diagonally upwards to the east.
Major General Loire finally understood what the Chinese brigadier general had just relied on for daring to speak outrageously? But with more than 200 wheeled vehicles, can the German army of 50,000 be towed? He didn't know that the question of self-consciousness was also a hot topic of discussion in an infantry fighting vehicle in the armored convoy.
"Junqing, how is the road ahead?" Looking at the increasingly scarce French soldiers, Zhu Yunjie knew that he had passed through the rout of the French army. I have to say that the French army has been fighting for two years, and it is still a bit of a way, although more than half of the casualties and most of them are defeated, but in the face of reinforcements, they can still take the initiative to give way and are not in a hurry to flee for their lives, at least it shows that they are still very mature psychologically. In the war, what can test the quality of the troops is not the stormy assault, but the ability to protect the vital points and retreat under the condition that the opponent smashes them indiscriminately and is unable to fight back, and the difficulty of retreat is much more difficult than the attack, and the rout retreat without a unified organization can take the initiative to avoid crowded conflicts with their own follow-up troops, which also shows that the strength of the first army is still very sufficient.
"Report to the sir, the front has been dredged, do you want to start a formation?" Zhang Junqing is the company commander of the first company of the fast armored combat vehicle, and he is also his confidant and favorite general of Zhu Yunjie, this kid is born to be a dry cavalryman, and he may not be able to see the positional warfare step by step, but compared to interspersing behind enemy lines, roundabout assaults are his forte.
"Don't be busy yet, let the artillery cluster immediately rush to the 311 heights, enter the preset position and deploy, and attack on standby. The forward guidance platoon also accompanied it, and quickly set up a guidance base station at the 311 heights to reconnoiter and guide. The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd armored companies marched forward in front of the front line, the 4th, 5th, and 6th infantry companies followed to cover the front, and the armored training company, the 7th infantry company, and the 8th self-propelled mortar company lagged behind. The 9th Infantry Company and the command platoon acted together in a position 500 meters behind the 2nd Company. ”
"Understood." "Yes, sir." The voices of the commanders of the various companies were heard on the on-board radio, and in the roar of ironclad armor, more than 200 vehicles scattered like schools of fish in a pond, and if you looked down from the sky, a huge inverted V-shaped shape spread out in the fields and on the roads, and more than 40 vehicles with artillery tows rushed towards the high ground to the south.
"Hey, Rudolph, you're drying eggs again, aren't you? Get back in the pack, and don't let the captain see it, he'll kick your white ass. A veteran shouted to the private who ran to the hillside to urinate, in fact, the captain of this company was less than ten meters behind him, everyone was just having some fun on the way to the pursuit, the French had been beaten to the point of losing their souls, and the rest was just a trick of chasing the dead and chasing the north, although the legs were tired, but the danger was not great, so everyone was also happy. Germans are also human beings, and they will get tired of living with a straight face all day, and the captain knows this, so he not only didn't think he was angry when he joked with the sergeant, but laughed with the veterans around him, and indeed although Rudol hid behind the tree with his back to everyone to release water, a big round white butt was exposed in the sparse bushes, and he looked full of joy. The marching party saluted Rudol's big ass, and everyone couldn't help but laugh and joke about him, and some whistled a whistle or two.
"Ahh Rudol trembled, and was about to lift his pants, when suddenly his hands and feet were useless as if he had a stroke, and his half-lifted pants fell off again, exposing his entire buttocks, and the team laughed even more wildly. However, the sergeant seemed to feel that something was wrong, and Rudol reacted a little strangely. "Ahh Yes! Rudol turned and was about to run towards the team, but forgot about his trousers, and unsurprisingly turned into a fallen gourd rolling down the hillside, still screaming something.
"Cars, a lot of cars, it's a gun car! Many, all enemies! At last two privates who had enlisted in the same year went up to help him, but Rudolph shouted incoherently, and kept looking at the hill behind him, as if he could see a man-eating demon.
"Stop, stop. Alert, vigil! The sergeant ordered, he didn't have time to verify the situation, he felt a slight vibration on the ground, and a faint roar from behind the hillside, could it be the French cavalry?
"Oh, God! Save us. The soldiers who had just had time to disperse to both sides of the road couldn't help but sigh when they looked at the front of a wheeled armored car that suddenly poked out of the hillside. Because judging from the roar of the engine, it is not just this one. Sure enough, just like the caravans of the Indians appearing from the hillside one after another, and then surrounding the white caravans together, one wheeled armored car after another appeared, looking at the large-caliber machine guns turning in the turrets on the hull, the German soldiers with only rifles and machine guns felt despair, which was also too bullying.
"Tongtongtong" and other armored vehicles lined up on the top of the mountain, large-caliber machine guns began to spit devouring flames, 12.7 bullets hit a cloud of smoke and dust, flesh and blood stumps flew everywhere in the dust, and in crowded places, blood splashed like a spring, and even formed a bright rainbow in the sun, a rainbow of blood.
In less than a minute, the 100 German soldiers who had just been laughing turned into a pile of rotten flesh in the dust and dirt, and only the battered Mauser rifle next to them told people that it was a German army infantry company buried here. Although the advance company fought very quickly, but after all, the sound of gunfire alarmed the follow-up troops of the German army, and the troops behind hurriedly stopped the pace of pursuit, and the infantry in the vanguard immediately built improvised fortifications according to local conditions, and the artillery began to sort out the artillery positions and deploy artillery, but they still knew nothing about the enemy they were facing, and perhaps thought it was a large-scale cavalry attack.
"The artillery is ready and ready to fire." The communications staff officer reported to Zhu Yunjie. The car Zhu Yunjie was in was a box-type armored car, and the handguards, railings, antennas, and high-power radio stations on it could ensure that they could keep in touch with all companies within a radius of 50 kilometers.
"Okay, immediately carry out covering fire at the enemy's forward fortifications and guide the aviation to carry out the support mission."
"Yes, sir."
The sound of the "boom" "boom" artillery 105 howitzer spoke a minute later, I didn't expect the French (the Germans mistook it for the French) and an artillery to find and cover them so quickly, the rudimentary fortifications had no way to withstand the hail shells, and immediately the dead and wounded were pillowed, and a German battalion at the front was withdrawn and only one company remained. But today the bad luck of the Germans has not yet come to an end, because of the roar of planes coming from the sky.
"Look, the French's armored car, damn it, fire it."
Looking at the main German army running through the telescope, he was not surprised by the reaction of these soldiers, who had just been shelled, and then faced with the onslaught of dozens of ironclad chariots spitting fire snakes, not many of them could confidently hold their rifles and aim and shoot. The Germans of a subsequent regiment had just turned the hill and were fatally attacked before they had time to look at the situation on the battlefield.
The blow did not come from artillery but from the air, and the ground-attack Eagle was much higher than the amateur Swift III. Before they could understand, planes strafed, shells flew sideways, and then a large group of armored vehicles like sharks began to divide up the German army that had been blown up, and when the forward vehicles drove over, the follow-up tanks were left with the share of whipping corpses.
Looking at the several young staff officers who were dispatching in an orderly manner, Zhu Yunjie's heart inexplicably felt a burst of emptiness, in this air-ground integration battle mode, the role of generals is becoming smaller and smaller, maybe it is time to go to Zaolin to study hard and improve every day.
