Chapter 315: Tank Sortie

On the evening of March 19, 2538, in the city defense headquarters of Yueyang City, Sun Guodong, deputy commander of city defense, said to Su Yi in a deep voice: "Commander, in the fierce battles of the past few days, the army of the Ice Lion Kingdom attacked day and night, and did not care about casualties at all, which brought great losses to the four provisional divisions on our front line, and even many full infantry battalions of the four provisional divisions were exhausted. ”

Su Yi looked at the military map on the table, then pondered for a moment and said: "Let the four temporary divisions in the front of the four urban districts abandon all the current forward positions and temporarily withdraw to the central city for rest, and then the four provisional divisions of the second line of defense will resist the attack of the Ice Lion Country army." ”

When Sun Guodong heard this, he couldn't help but hurriedly ask: "Commander, have the forward positions in the four urban districts been abandoned?" ”

Su Yi nodded and said: "The fortifications of the forward positions in the four urban districts, after a few days of fierce fighting, most of them have been destroyed, which is also the main reason why the four provisional divisions in the front have suffered such a big loss, although in order to defend Yueyang City before, we have set the tactics of fighting for every inch of land, but it is also very important to preserve the living force in our hands to defend Yueyang City, after all, there will be no reinforcements to support us, for the sake of protracted war, we can't fight hard with the army of the Ice Lion Country, we still have to pay attention to some strategies." ”

After Su Yi's order was issued, the four provisional divisions in the eastern, southern, western, and northern districts of Yueyang City that were in the forward positions immediately began to retreat in an orderly manner, but Ma Sibao, Bai Kuishan and others, who were guarding the Beijie Market in Beicheng District, suddenly found that the back road was cut off by an army of the Ice Lion Kingdom when they were preparing to retreat.

At this time, in the position of the North Street Market, because the division headquarters of the 12th Division was provisionally organized, more than 400 people were transferred from three logistics battalions to reinforce the North Street Market, so that even if the officers and soldiers of the Great Qin Army in the current position repelled several charges of the Ice Lion Country army, there were still more than 300 officers and soldiers who survived.

Seeing that the back road was cut off by the Ice Lion Country army, Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan, as the supreme commanders of the position, immediately organized troops to try to open up the back road and evacuated the North Street Market according to the order of the division headquarters.

However, the Ice Lion Country army that cut off Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan's back road showed quite strong combat effectiveness, and forcibly blocked Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan in the North Street Market, and soon cooperated with other Ice Lion Country troops to surround the entire North Street Market.

Finding that the North Street Market was surrounded by the Ice Lion Country army, the other troops of the Provisional Twelfth Division immediately tried to open a gap and rescue the surrounded own troops, but unfortunately, as a large number of Ice Lion Country troops entered the forward position in Beicheng District, the rescue operation of the other troops of the Provisional Twelfth Division was unsuccessful, and the hard attack was blocked several times.

In order not to be surrounded by the Ice Lion Army, the commander of the 12th Division, who was provisionally organized, had to order the battalions that rescued the North Street Market to retreat immediately.

In the position of the North Street Market, Bai Kuishan said to Ma Sibao with a wry smile: "I didn't expect to burden you this time, if you don't bring people to support me, you won't be surrounded here." ”

Ma Sibao said calmly while loading the bullet into the magazine: "Anyway, I am ready to sacrifice my life for the country at any time, and if I can die in the defense of Yueyang City, my life will be worth it, but unfortunately I will not be able to continue to serve for the commander in the future." ”

Bai Kuishan hesitated for a moment and said, "Why don't we rush again?" Now that our provisional 12th Division has abandoned all forward positions, it is almost certain that we will die if we remain here, and it should be impossible for reinforcements to come to our rescue. ”

Ma Sibao shook his head and said: "I rushed once just now, and lost more than seventy brothers in vain, the army of the Ice Lion Country seems to want to annihilate our team, and will not give us a chance to break through, I think it is better to defend the North Street Market, and kill one more enemy, if we forcibly break through, we will have this little bit left, and it is not enough for those orcs to stuff their teeth." ”

Bai Kuishan nodded slowly, "Fortunately, we just replenished the ammunition once, since we can't break through, let's fight with the Ice Lion Country army until the last moment!" If the Ice Lion Army wants to eat more than 200 of us, it will have to make them pay the price of at least 600 people. ”

As soon as Su Yi was lying on the marching bed and preparing to sleep, an adjutant from the headquarters reported to Su Yi: "Commander, Feng Hao, deputy commander of the 18th Infantry Battalion of the 12th Provisional Division, called the headquarters and said that he was looking for you in an emergency. ”

As soon as Su Yi heard that it was Feng Hao's call, he immediately got up from the marching bed, came to the side of a row of telephones in the city defense headquarters, and took a phone from the hand of another adjutant, "Feng Hao, I'm Su Yi, what's wrong?" ”

Feng Hao on the phone said with a crying voice: "Commander, quickly find a way to save Big Brother Ma Sibao and Big Brother Bai Kuishan!" When they retreated, they were surrounded by the army of the Ice Lion Kingdom in the North Street Market in Beicheng District, I led people to attack several times, but they did not rescue Brother Ma Sibao and Brother Bai Kuishan, and then the division headquarters ordered that we must retreat, and now there is no one to save Brother Ma Sibao and Brother Bai Kuishan, I can only call you, Commander. ”

As soon as Su Yi heard that Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan were surrounded by the army of the Ice Lion Country, his brows immediately furrowed, Su Yi still attached great importance to these two people who followed him earlier, these two people not only have excellent marksmanship, but also dare to fight, the most important thing is that these two people are still their own descendants, and they should be more loyal to themselves.

Su Yi then said in a deep voice: "Feng Hao, you tell Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan about their situation in more detail. ”

After Feng Hao carefully told Su Yi about the situation of Ma Sibao, Bai Kuishan and others being trapped, Su Yi said to Feng Hao in a deep voice on the phone: "I will immediately organize troops to rescue Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan, you are now the deputy battalion commander, since Ma Sibao is not here, you have to take the troops withdrawn from your battalion." ”

After putting down Feng Hao's phone, Su Yi made another call to the commander of the 12th Division.

The commander of the Provisional 12th Division explained that the Provisional 12th Division organized several rescues of the officers and soldiers trapped in the North Street Market, but they all returned in vain, and in the end he had to order the other battalions to retreat, otherwise the troops rescued by the Provisional 12th Division would also have to be dumplings by the Ice Lion Army.

After Su Yi ended the phone call with the commander of the 12th Division, he asked people to connect the phone calls of Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan, and Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan heard Su Yi's voice, and they were all excited, and assured Su Yi that they would lead the defenders of the North Street Market to fight until the last moment and never embarrass the commander.

Su Yi said to Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan in a deep voice on the phone: "I will immediately organize troops to rescue you, there are more than 200 people there there, and the ammunition is relatively sufficient, don't be rash, minimize casualties, within two hours, reinforcements will definitely arrive!" ”

After Su Yi put down the phone, he turned to Sun Guodong, the deputy commander of the city defense, and asked, "How many tanks can we attack now?" ”

Since the Stargate was only one meter wide, Su Yi could not bring the tanks of the other two worlds to the world on the side of the Great Qin Kingdom, but after the street battle in Yueyang City, Su Yi found that the three provisional armies under his command suffered too much when launching a local counterattack due to the lack of tanks.

So Su Yi ordered a Han Kingdom arsenal that could already imitate the Type 69 main battle tank to divide the Type 69 main battle tank into multiple parts, and then Su Yi transported the parts of the Type 69 main battle tank to the world of the Great Qin Kingdom through the Star Gate, and dug out a factory to assemble the tank under the underground of the central city.

Sun Guodong, deputy commander of the city defense, immediately replied: "Commander, the tank factory has assembled sixty-four tanks, and the crews of these sixty-four tanks are fully equipped. ”

Su Yi then immediately ordered: "Transfer four infantry battalions from the provisional first division, cooperate with these sixty-four tanks, and immediately dispatch to rescue the officers and soldiers trapped in the North Street Market, and be sure to rescue Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan!" ”

"Da Da Da-" Ma Sibao kept hooking the trigger of the Type 89 heavy machine gun in the bunker, and strafed the soldiers of the Ice Lion Country who were charging in the distance, although Ma Sibao's face was still very calm, but he secretly complained in his heart.

Not long after Su Yi called them, the Ice Lion Army launched a fierce attack on the North Street Market, and it was attacking from four directions at the same time.

Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan have been stubbornly resisting the attack of the Ice Lion Country army by using the remaining fortifications in the North Street Market, coupled with the continuous artillery support of the artillery unit of the Great Qin Army, Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan and their group of more than 200 remnants have still not been annihilated by dozens of times the Ice Lion Country army.

However, after an hour of fierce fighting, Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan had been compressed into a position of less than 500 square meters.

Relying on the two reinforced concrete bunkers that were not destroyed, Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan were still making the last resistance, at this time Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan They only had less than forty people left, and almost all of them were injured, and the most terrible thing was that they didn't have much ammunition left.

After the charge of this wave of Ice Lion Country soldiers was repulsed, Bai Kuishan, who was covered in blood, walked into the bunker where Ma Sibao was located, and said with a wry smile: "Old Ma, the soldiers' bullets are almost gone, it seems that we can't wait for the reinforcements sent by the commander." ”

Ma Sibao glanced at the few empty ammunition boxes next to him, sighed and said, "Anyway, we are worth it, more than two hundred of us have already killed at least eight or nine hundred enemies, Lao Bai, how are your injuries?" ”

Bai Kuishan said indifferently: "It's no big deal, there's no problem with fighting bayonets, I can at least pull a few beasts from the Ice Lion Country on their backs!" ”

As soon as Bai Kuishan's words fell, a more intense gunfire suddenly sounded in the south, and Ma Sibao and Bai Kuishan's eyes lit up at the same time, and they all shouted: "Reinforcements are coming!" ”

Less than two kilometers away from Ma Sibao and Bai Kui Mountain, sixty-four Type 69 main battle tanks led thousands of officers and soldiers of the Great Qin Army to suddenly launch a fierce attack on the Ice Lion Army blocking the south of the North Street Market.

The large number of artillery pieces of the Great Qin Army also continued to bombard the front of the 64 Type 69 main battle tanks and thousands of officers and soldiers of the Great Qin Army, clearing the obstacles in the direction of advance.

The sudden appearance of the Great Qin Army tank caught the Ice Lion Army army by surprise, and the Ice Lion Army that was quickly blocking the South of the North Street Market was defeated by sixty-four tanks and thousands of Great Qin Army officers and soldiers.

After Ma Sibao, Bai Kuishan and others converged the rescue troops, sixty-four tanks and thousands of officers and soldiers of the Great Qin Army did not continue to pursue the defeated Ice Lion Country army, but immediately retreated back and broke away from the Ice Lion Country army.

Of the sixty-four Type 69 main battle tanks, none of them were lost in this rescue operation, but more than a dozen Silver Lion medium tanks of the Ice Lion Country were killed.

At the forward headquarters of the Ice Lion Country army outside Yueyang City, Marshal Cajano, the commander-in-chief of the Ice Lion Country army, angrily threw a glass filled with water on the ground, "A garrison infantry division can't even eat hundreds of remnants, and let the Great Qin army rescue the surviving remnants, I think the commander of the 13th Garrison Infantry Division, Kadit, doesn't want to be the commander of this division!" ”

Deputy Commander-in-Chief Army General Gru hesitated for a moment and said: "Originally, the 13th Garrison Infantry Division was about to wipe out the remnants of the Beijie Market, but I didn't expect that the Great Qin army in Yueyang City also hid dozens of tanks, and as a result, the 13th Garrison Infantry Division was taken by surprise. ”

At this time, Marshal Cajano suddenly remembered that the division commander of the 13th Garrison Infantry Division, Kadit, was related to Gru, so Marshal Kajano no longer mentioned the matter of holding the division commander Cadit responsible, "How can the defenders of Yueyang City have tanks?" And it's still dozens, why haven't the defenders of Yueyang City taken it out before? ”

Deputy Commander-in-Chief Army General Gru then said: "Marshal, according to the report of the 13th Garrison Infantry Division, the tanks that suddenly appeared in the Great Qin Army in Yueyang City should all be heavy tanks, and have very strong cross-country ability and very fast speed, equipped with tank guns of about 100 mm caliber, the Silver Lion medium tank equipped by the 13th Garrison Infantry Division, in front of the heavy tanks of the Great Qin Army, there is no way to fight back, these heavy tanks should be the killer weapon of the Great Qin Army in Yueyang City, So I haven't taken it out before. ”

Marshal Kayano then said: "Immediately let the logistics troops send more anti-aircraft guns and anti-tank grenades to the battlefield in Yueyang City, even if the Great Qin army in Yueyang City has dozens of more heavy tanks, it will not change the battle situation in Yueyang City, so that the divisions on the front line will continue to advance towards the central city of Yueyang City according to the previous attack intensity." ”
