The first attack on Xinji Town was the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment belonging to the 7th Division of the Ice Lion Guard, and the first round of attacks on this mechanized infantry regiment was met head-on by the 48th Provisional Independent Regiment of the Great Qin Army.

As soon as the commander of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment of the Ice Lion Guard's Praetorian Guard gave the order for his artillery to suppress the enemy's forward positions, two special operations teams of the guard company of the Independent Regiment launched a strong attack on the remaining ten 122-mm self-propelled howitzers of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment.

In the end, the two special operations teams of the guard company of the independent regiment, at the cost of losing most of them, blew up seven more 122-mm self-propelled howitzers, so that the remaining artillery of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment could not suppress the fire of the forward positions of the independent regiment at all, forcing the first wave of the attack of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment to end miserably.

The 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment lost 14 Silver Lion medium tanks, 21 armored vehicles and more than 400 officers and soldiers in the first wave of the offensive alone, and nine 122mm self-propelled howitzers were also blown up, which made the commander of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment feel shocked at the same time, but also distressed, the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment has not suffered such a big loss since it entered the Great Qin State.

The commander of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment had to report the situation to the brigade headquarters of the 20th Brigade of the Ice Lion Janissary Army and the division headquarters of the 7th Division of the Ice Lion Janissary Guard, and asked the Ice Lion Air Force to bomb the Great Qin Army in Xinji Town.

The 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment is subordinate to the 20th Brigade of the Seventh Division, the Praetorian Guard of the Ice Lion Country, with three main brigades under each division, and each brigade has three main regiments.

At 12 o'clock at noon on December 9, eight bombers of the Ice Lion Air Force, escorted by six fighters, flew over Xinji Town, preparing to bomb the Great Qin Army stationed in Xinji Town.

The fighters and bombers equipped by the Air Force of the Ice Lion Country belong to the piston propeller aircraft, which are designed and produced by the Ice Lion Country itself, and the comprehensive performance is very good, the speed of this fighter is 600 kilometers per hour, equipped with a 25 mm cannon and two 12.7 mm machine guns, this bomber has a speed of 430 kilometers per hour, a bomb load of two tons, and is equipped with four 12.7 mm machine guns.

However, the six fighters and eight bombers of the Ice Lion Air Force had just flown over Xinji Town, and they encountered intensive anti-aircraft fire, which was also mixed with individual anti-aircraft missiles that the pilots of the Ice Lion Air Force had never seen, and in just a few minutes, all fourteen fighters of the Ice Lion Air Force were shot down, and even eight of them did not have time to drop aerial bombs on the ground.

After six fighters and eight bombers of the Ice Lion Air Force were shot down, a deputy commander of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment, holding a Type 95 automatic rifle, walked to the side of the commander of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment, "Commander, we seem to have encountered the most elite troops of the Great Qin State, and the enemy soldiers are equipped with this rifle that is very advanced, it is actually an automatic rifle!" ”

The Type 95 automatic rifle in the hands of the deputy regiment commander was obtained from the sacrificed soldiers of the Guard Company of the Independent Regiment, and the three special operations teams of the guard company launched two attacks on the 122-mm self-propelled howitzers of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment, which killed more than 20 officers and men in total, and in addition to the Type 95 automatic rifles, the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment also captured more than a dozen Type 92 pistols and several 60-mm mortars.

Only the Type 88 sniper rifles and individual anti-tank missiles equipped with the special operations group of the guard company of the independent regiment did not fall into the hands of the 59th mechanized infantry regiment for the time being.

The commander of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment took the Type 95 automatic rifle, studied it slightly, and his face suddenly became a little solemn, "How can the Great Qin Kingdom have such an advanced automatic rifle, we must report this situation to our superiors immediately!" ”

easily repelled the first wave of attacks by the Ice Lion Army, and also shot down more than a dozen fighters of the Ice Lion Air Force, which greatly boosted the morale of the officers and soldiers of the 48th Division's provisional independent regiment, but Su Yi and the two deputy regiment commanders Sun Guodong and He Zhihong's faces did not reveal a little relaxed.

Su Yi said to Sun Guodong and He Zhihong in a deep voice: "Now this enemy should only be the vanguard force, although our independent regiment has made this vanguard suffer a big loss, but soon more and more Ice Lion Country troops will arrive outside the town, and the next time is to test our independent regiment, the most important thing now is that our independent regiment has no effective means to deal with the enemy's large-caliber artillery, and only relies on a few special operations teams of the guard company, when a large number of troops from the Ice Lion Country arrive, It will be difficult to pose any threat to the large-caliber artillery of the Ice Lion Country. ”

Sun Guodong said with a wry smile: "We have expected this situation before, and we can only rely on those dug air-raid shelters to reduce the losses caused by the large-caliber artillery of the Ice Lion Country to our independent regiment, but we have to be prepared for the entire new market town to be blown into ruins by the large-caliber artillery of the Ice Lion Country." ”

He Zhihong followed and said in a deep voice: "Thanks to the regiment commander who got so many weapons and equipment, otherwise the enemy's vanguard force should have already invaded Xinji Town, anyway, the people we stayed in Xinji Town are ready to sacrifice, and if we can kill one more lion people, we will kill one more lion people." ”

Su Yi did not have any solution to the difficulties faced by the 48th Division's temporary independent regiment, and the most direct way to deal with the large-caliber artillery of the Ice Lion Army was to use larger-caliber artillery to carry out suppressive artillery bombardment, but unfortunately the height of the Stargate was two meters and the width was only one meter, and Su Yi could not transport large-caliber artillery from the world of the Tang Empire or the Han Kingdom.

Su Yi shook his head helplessly and said, "Anyway, it's already like this, we can only take one step at a time, and let the companies prepare for the next wave of attacks by the Ice Lion Country army." ”

On the night of December 8, the Great Qin Army, which was stationed in the east and west of the Yueyang City area, also abandoned its position and hastily withdrew to Yueyang City, which also caused the periphery of the Yueyang City area, except for the south, to fall into the hands of the Ice Lion Army.

Early this morning, Marshal Cajano, the commander-in-chief of the Ice Lion Country's attack on Yueyang City, issued an order to march into the urban area of Yueyang City, and hundreds of thousands of Ice Lion Country troops swooped down on Yueyang City from the east, west, and north directions.

When Marshal Kayano learned that the vanguard of the attack from the north had been blocked by the elite troops of the Great Qin Army in Xinji Town, and even destroyed six fighters and eight bombers of the Ice Lion Air Force, he immediately telegraphed the Seventh Division of the Ice Lion Guard's Janissary Army to open the road to Yueyang City in the north before 4 p.m. on December 9, and at the same time ordered the Ice Lion Air Force to send more than 60 additional fighters to provide air support to the Seventh Division of the Praetorian Guard.

For a small town with only a few hundred households, the 7th Division of the Janissary Guard of the Ice Lion Country did not use all its strength at the beginning, but mobilized the 58th Mechanized Infantry Regiment under the 20th Brigade, and together with the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment, launched another attack on Xinji Town.

In addition to sending two mechanized infantry regiments and more than 60 warplanes to the second wave of the attack on Xinji Town, the 7th Division of the Ice Lion Guard's Praetorian Guard also transferred a heavy artillery battalion with eight 155mm self-propelled howitzers to provide stronger fire support for the two mechanized infantry regiments.

Under the shelling of more than a dozen 122-mm self-propelled howitzers and eight 155-mm self-propelled howitzers of two mechanized infantry regiments, the entire Xinji town was almost bombed into ruins, but when more than 60 fighters of the Air Force of the Ice Lion Country were ready to add icing on the cake, they were once again dizzy by the anti-aircraft fire of the 48th Division of the Great Qin Army's temporary independent regiment, and not only did not achieve any results, but were soon shot down more than 30 fighters. As a result, the remaining more than 20 fighters had to hurriedly flee the sky over the new market town.

Although the air force of the Ice Lion Country did not play a role, the two mechanized infantry regiments of the 20th Brigade of the Ice Lion Army still launched a fierce attack on Xinji Town under the cover of artillery, and soon broke through the forward position north of Xinji Town, entered the inside of Xinji Town, and launched the most brutal street battle with the 48th Division Provisional Independent Regiment.

"Boom-" A Silver Lion medium tank of the Ice Lion Army, after being hit by a single anti-tank missile, detonated dozens of shells inside the tank, and even the turret of the Silver Lion medium tank was blown away, and more than 20 soldiers of the Ice Lion Army who followed behind the Silver Lion medium tank became the martyrs of this Silver Lion medium tank, and no one survived.

Although the temporary independent regiment under Su Yi is not superior to the two mechanized infantry regiments of the 20th Brigade of the Ice Lion Country Army, and even if more than 3,000 seriously wounded are subtracted, the strength of the temporary independent regiment is still at a great disadvantage, but because Su Yi moved a large number of advanced weapons from the world of the Han Kingdom, the two mechanized infantry regiments of the Ice Lion Army that invaded Xinji Town brought very large casualties, especially the tanks and armored vehicles of these two mechanized infantry regiments that entered Xinji Town. It was soon lost.

The commander of the 7th Division of the Janissary Guard of the Ice Lion Country, as soon as he saw the battle situation in Xinji Town, had to put the remaining 60th Mechanized Infantry Regiment of the 20th Brigade and the troops directly under the 20th Brigade Headquarters into the battle of Xinji Town.

The 20th Brigade of the Janissaries of the entire Ice Lion Country had more than 9,000 people, and when the 20th Brigade was all put into the battlefield of Xinji Town, Su Yi's temporary independent regiment suddenly doubled the pressure, but relying on the stubborn resistance of officers and soldiers, at three o'clock in the afternoon of December 9, there was only one hour left before Marshal Callano gave the Seventh Division of the Praetorian Guard to seize Xinji Town, and the battle in Xinji Town was still very stale, and it was obvious that the Seventh Division of the Praetorian Guard had no way to completely occupy Xinji Town within the specified time.

The name of the commander of the seventh division of the Ice Lion Guard's army is Bode, he is not yet forty years old this year, not only is he already a division commander of the Ice Lion Guard's Guard, but his military rank has reached the rank of lieutenant general.

The Seventh Division of the Praetorian Guard under the command of Bode, since the war between the Ice Lion State and the Great Qin State, has made great achievements, and the Seventh Division of the Praetorian Guard Army once defeated the three armies of the Great Qin State in a single battle with its own strength, laying the foundation for the victory of the Ice Lion Army's army in this battle.

However, after entering the Great Qin State, the Seventh Division of the Praetorian Guard, which was invincible and invincible all the way, ran into a big nail in Xinji Town, a small town with only a few hundred households.

Bode asked Im, the deputy commander of the Seventh Division of the Praetorian Guard, with a gloomy face: "How long will it take for the 20th Brigade to wipe out the remnants of the enemy in Xinji Town, and now there is only one hour left before the last time given by Marshal Kayano!" ”

Deputy division commander Yimu said with a wry smile: "The Great Qin Army, which defended Xinji Town, performed very tenaciously, it can be said that after our seventh division entered the Great Qin Kingdom, it has never been seen, many seriously wounded of this Great Qin Army will even take the means of ending up together, attacking the officers and soldiers of the 20th Brigade, and this Great Qin Army is also equipped with many advanced weapons, especially a straight line artillery launcher that can destroy tanks, which has caused heavy losses to the armored troops of the 20th Brigade." ”

Division Commander Bode frowned: "Straight line artillery launcher? What's that? ”

In fact, the linear artillery launcher mentioned by the deputy division commander Yimu is a single anti-tank missile, and the temporary independent regiment under the command of Su Yi relied on a large number of individual anti-tank missiles, so that the tanks and armored vehicles of the 20th Brigade of the Ice Lion Janissary Army did not play much role at all after entering the new market town, and they were destroyed one after another.

Deputy Division Commander Yimu shook his head and said: "I have never seen this kind of weapon before, you can be carried by a person carrying this kind of linear artillery shell launcher to fire armor-piercing shells at tanks or armored vehicles, maybe it is a new anti-tank weapon developed by the Great Qin State." ”

Division Commander Bode pondered for a moment and then asked, "What does the 20th Brigade say?" Can we completely occupy this town before 4 p.m.? ”

Deputy Division Commander Yimu sighed and said: "The commander of the 20th Brigade, Sandro, hopes that the 20th Brigade can withdraw from Xinji Town for rest, and Sandro has made it clear that it is impossible to eliminate the defenders of the Great Qin State in Xinji Town at four o'clock in the afternoon. ”

After a pause, Deputy Division Commander Yimu continued: "Division Commander, I think it's better to let the 20th Brigade withdraw from Xinji Town first, now the 20th Brigade is already broken, continue to fight, it will take a long time for the 20th Brigade to recover." ”

Division Commander Bode nodded slightly: "Then let the 20th Brigade withdraw from Xinji Town first, let the 19th Brigade prepare to take over the 20th Brigade, wipe out the remnants of the enemy in Xinji Town as soon as possible, and report the situation of the 20th Brigade to Marshal Kayano in detail." ”

The Seventh Division of the Ice Lion Janissary Guard has a total of three mechanized infantry brigades, namely the 19th, 20th and 21st Brigades of the Praetorian Guard, each mechanized infantry brigade has more than 9,000 people, and the Seventh Division has about 3,000 direct troops.
