Section 321 Tiger Leap Battle-The Mainstay (9)
This book is written here, and there is already a considerable part of it, but when it comes to the sequel to the previous book, but it's another book, is the content, I'm still thinking about it.
Jiang Yong gritted his teeth and said, "They are here to attack at night and want to consume us." Hum! It was wishful thinking, burning all the code books, and asking the company commanders to check the weapons, and if necessary, they would rather destroy them than fall into the hands of the Qing army, and at the same time order the artillery platoon to fire flares, and then shoot all the shells for me under the command of the observation post, I don't believe that they are not made of meat......" The communications platoon commander responded and prepared to go out.
Jiang Yong thought for a moment, and then stopped him, "Wait a minute, there is still the whole battalion ready to withdraw into the second position, and prepare for night battles, tell the company commanders, try not to mix with the Qing army for hand-to-hand combat, and the chariot company is ready to attack." ”
It has been said that modern warfare has turned night into day and day into night, and it all started with the birth of flares.
The adjutant general of the second group of attacks was very smart, he first sent 5,000 veterans, and when it was dark, he launched a feint, in which the soldiers of the death squad were lying on the ground and pretending to be dead, and when the battle really started, the soldiers who came up behind made a momentum to charge, and they stood up and quietly launched a sneak attack on the position of the Shenzhou army. His sneak attack was almost successful, and then it was a failure in an instant.
The sound outside suddenly rose, the Qing soldiers pushed the shield cart again, all the shields that could be found on the top of their heads, followed the shield cart forward, the Qing army's artillery stopped pouring ammunition on the first position that was already empty, and in the flames of the explosion, groups of Qing soldier death squads avoided the light of the searchlight and slowly approached the Shenzhou army position.
The Qing soldiers in charge of building momentum hid behind the shield cart and shouted, and their voices grew from small to loud, and they were approaching the fake appearance. Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed across the dark sky, and the flares that opened were like a light hanging in the sky, illuminating the vicinity of the position. At this time, the Qing army death squad that was preparing for a sneak attack was exposed. More than 2,000 people, one by one, holding shields, tiptoed and approached the positions of the Shenzhou Army, and in some places they had already approached a distance of about 30 meters. This abnormal change made the Qing troops who were sneaking up on the death squad in front and behind them all stunned and froze their figures. The heart said, "What kind of play is this, how have I never seen it!" One by one, they were waiting to take a closer look, but before they could react, the sound of artillery and gunfire on the position of the Shenzhou army rang out.
The daredevils who suffered the blow were no longer silent, and at the same time shouted and rushed towards the position, the daredevils held their shields in vain, and the bullets flew mercilessly to break through it, and then took their lives with their bodies, they were unwilling, they had never fought such a battle when they fought with the Ming army and the Qing army, and they could not even see the face of the enemy. However, their death was worth it, and the Qing soldiers behind them raised their weapons again under the shouts of the officer, and ran deep and shallow in the ground covered with dead bodies, and they had only one thought in their hearts, rushing in...... Just like the "sky lantern" that keeps brightening up in the sky, God finally opened his eyes.
After the soldiers of the Shenzhou Army shot the bullets in their rifles, they didn't have time to pull the bolt again, so they had to take out their pistols and shoot, and the gunshots at the front suddenly rang out, and even in some places, the death squads had already rushed into the trenches and rushed towards the battlefield of the Shenzhou Army that was shooting.
The Shenzhou Army also drew out the dog-legged knife that was difficult to use and shouted and collided with the enemy, and the daredevil's resentful broadsword slashed at the body of the Shenzhou Army soldier, embedded in his armor, and blood flowed down the shoulders of the Shenzhou Army soldiers. The Shenzhou soldier's dogleg knife slashed through the air, but did not hit the enemy. However, the revolver in his left hand returned a shot, which instantly killed the Qing soldier.
In the depths of the Shenzhou army's position, the chariots with lights on pounced out from the depths of the position, blocking the enemy's attack, although the shields of the death squads could protect against the shooting of crossbow arrows, but they were defenseless against the bullets fired from both sides of the chariots, and they fell down in the sound of revolver shots around the chariots.
At this time, the whistle of the Shenzhou Army when it retreated sounded above the position, and the signal flares and light signals were transmitting a message to the commanders at the front, "abandon the front-line position". The soldiers of the Shenzhou Army who were shooting formed squads and retreated to the second-line positions under the cover of snipers.
The chariot turned its head with difficulty, and although the Xiaofei God crossbow on the chariot sprinkled a rain of arrows on the back of the chariot, it could not stop the follow-up troops of the Qing army rushing behind it, and the mortars were fired without stopping, laying a defensive line of iron and fire behind the chariot. But this time, the clever lieutenant who led the army saw clearly that the Shenzhou army had abandoned the first-line position, and as long as it was there, tomorrow's attack would be much smoother, so he desperately urged his army to attack forward.
The soldiers of the Shenzhou Army smoothly withdrew into the second line of defense under the cover of tanks, snipers and mortars, and the difference between the second line and the first line is that it is a semicircular position to the rear, and the passages on both sides are only controlled by fire, except for a trench that sends ammunition to mortars and snipers on the cliff, and the whole position is like a hedgehog with thorns, with more self-preservation intentions than killing.
The Qing army, which had won the front-line position of the Shenzhou army, did not stop, and the adjutant general firmly believed that he had broken the morale of the Shenzhou army, victory was at hand, and as long as he was not afraid to pay the price, he could succeed. Also, the first-line position is only fifty or sixty meters away from the second-line position, and there are trenches connected to it, and compared with the first-line position, it is much easier to rush here.
Closer, closer, the assault Qing soldiers are getting closer and closer to the position of the Shenzhou army, and there is only another three zhang to arrive. But at this time, there was a singing voice from the rear of the Shenzhou Army's position, "The wolf smoke rises, the rivers and mountains look north......" is still the same tune, and for some reason it always sounds a little strange.
Listening to this strange singing, Jiang Yong sat on the ground with a relieved butt, and said softly: "These foreign devils have finally arrived." ”
The two companies converged and launched a counterattack, followed by self-propelled mortars and then a large group of infantry in scattered formations. In the standard Shenzhou Army's offensive formation, they did not move fast, and the combat vehicles constantly used light signals to indicate the target to the self-propelled mortars. The infantrymen followed behind or shot with their rifles, or were busy taking prisoners, jokingly it was all points!
