The Central Route Army, which broke out with all its might, did not think that the momentum was like a bamboo, and Serbia's will to resist was much greater than before!

The good thing of leaving the position and running away is no longer there! Now every time you take a position, you have to go through a hard battle! The front is the enemy, and the back is the warlord, and I have no choice but to go up!

The war continues, and the number of casualties on both sides rises dramatically due to the desperate Serbs! In order to reduce casualties, the commander-in-chief of the Central Route Army, Vasil Ivanov, decided to wash the ground with artillery fire!

The casualties were reduced, but the consumption of materials rose sharply, and it took more than 30 miles to advance the battle line, and more than 50,000 shells were consumed!

However, the desperate strength of the Serbs was quickly interrupted, and the two main regiments interspersed in the rear destroyed the main communication route, and Leskovac's supplies could not be delivered!

By the time the Serbian army reacted, the ammunition reserves at the front were almost finished! The garrison commander Ivan Richie is now going crazy, first the domestic machinery is stubbornly guarding the order, and the number of deserters executed on the southern front has reached thousands!

Now that the logistics supply has been cut off again, how can this battle be fought? If you talk about food reserves, you can hold on for more than a month, but ammunition reserves, it will cost you lives!

Three days ago, the Serbian army on the southern front combined, with a total of more than 80,000 people, has been reduced by one-fifth by now!

It hasn't collapsed yet, Ivan Richie is already a good manager! It's good now, the food is not exhausted! There are only more than 5,000 shells and more than 2 million rounds of ammunition in the whole army!

The most important thing is that the troops in his hands now dare not act rashly! Until now, the Serbian army has not collapsed, and it is still thanks to Ivan Ric who used the only main division as a supervising team, used the newly armed young men as cannon fodder, and shot thousands of deserters, barely stabilized the battle line!

Otherwise, with such a large casualty, this rabble would have collapsed long ago! Of course, it's almost the same now, and Ivan Ritchie knows very well that he can't hold on for long in the current situation!

At the military meeting, at a glance, everyone was widowed, yawning, and languishing! Obviously, everyone has suffered a lot in the past few days of hard fighting!

Ivan Rich's own state is not much better, and if he is not careful, the enemy may break through the defenses! Now that they have retreated to the last line of defense, they will have to be shot if they retreat!

Ivan Richie said tiredly: "Without further ado, the situation is already obvious now, and we can't hold out for long!" I have reported the situation here to the country truthfully, but the order of the military headquarters is for us to hold out for another three days to buy time for the main forces in the Niš area! ”

"What? How is this possible? Our current situation, let alone three days, whether we can keep it until tomorrow is a question! An officer exclaimed

"Yes! Now the situation is obvious, we have been holding off the main forces of Bulgaria for four days, and the main forces in the Niš region have not yet managed a partial division, are they all rice buckets? Another said

Everyone began to talk about it, complaining one after another, dissatisfied with the domestic order!

"Well, anyway, the order still has to be carried out! Doesn't it take three days for the main force in the Niš region? We give it to him!

Now I order that on the way to Niš, five more lines of defense be arranged! You go and organize the people at once and repair the defense line for me! In any case, the main forces must be given three days!

Otherwise, we will lose this war! Even if the Southern Front Army is wiped out, everyone must hold on! ”

The crowd replied in unison, "Yes!" ”

Obviously, Ivan Richie has a slippery head! From here to Niš, there are still more than 100 kilometers, such a long distance, in the 19th century, it took two or three days to march alone, as long as you resist along the way, drag the time over, and then you will find a way to pass the test!

A young officer asked suspiciously: "General, what about the enemy army that is interspersed in our rear?" If we let them move freely, I'm afraid we're going to get into trouble later? ”

Ivan Rich's face changed, if you want to run smoothly, you must first kill the enemy army behind, then you must draw troops from the front line!

After a moment of silence, he said: "Two regiments will be drawn from the front, and half of our reserves will be drawn to temporarily form a reinforced division, with Zach Vic as the temporary division commander, to kill these hamsters!" ”

……

The General Command of the Serbian Front, General Subolovich is now bleeding from his heart! The Left Route Army, which was sent to the door by Bulgaria, was not a soft persimmon at all!

From the beginning of the counteroffensive, only two days have passed now, and more than 20,000 heroic Serbian soldiers have fallen on the way to the charge, and more than 10,000 more wounded, while the enemy positions remain unmoved!

When defending, it's the best time for machine guns to exert their power, especially heavy machine guns! The debut of the Mark Core machine gun in the Balkans gave the Serbs a blow in the head!

On the first day of the attack, the Serbian army sent more than 10,000 corpses, which made him famous!

In order to block the bullets, the Serbs have even taken out the shields of the Middle Ages, and there is still no use!

Subolovvich hesitated, even if he was desperate, he couldn't be sent to death! More than 30,000 casualties have already been paid, and the enemy's losses will not exceed 1,000, and such a battle cannot be fought at all!

If the fight continues, the soldiers will have to mutiny! You must know that the Overseer is driving the soldiers to charge, and now there are many complaints, and there are even officers who have been shot black, if you come back in a few days, God will know what will happen!

Now the best way to deal with machine guns is to bombard them with artillery, but unfortunately now Serbian artillery is not dominant! As soon as they appeared, Bulgarian shells followed!

Moreover, the artillery of the 19th century was not easy to aim, and it often took dozens of shells to achieve results, so long was enough to reveal the position of the artillery!

Now it's an average of one artillery, for two or three machine guns! According to this exchange ratio, if you run out of artillery, you can probably solve the nasty machine gun!

It's a pity that Subolovvich didn't dare to do this, Serbia originally lacked artillery, and if it was all done now, what would happen to the war later? By what means to contain the enemy's firepower?

Turning offense into defense seems to be the best way! But the current situation is not up to Subolovich to choose!

"Or, let's attack again in the evening! The black light is blinding, and the enemy has no way to aim, so send a death squad with explosives bags and touch it directly~~" A staff officer proposed

Everyone's eyes lit up, it seemed feasible! Serbia lacks everything, just not death squads! Although it is difficult to attack at night, non-combat attrition will increase a lot, and that is better than sending to death!

Subolovvich took a deep breath and said, "Then try it!" If you have any ideas, take them all out and try them, don't care about casualties!

Bulgarian reinforcements are coming, and we have less than three days to crush the enemy in front of us! ”

In three days, everyone's faces changed greatly, what a joke! From the counteroffensive to the present, none of them have done their best, and until now they have only harvested a few abandoned positions that the enemy has voluntarily abandoned, and there is not a single piece that has really been captured!
