Chapter 84: The Northern Expedition (3)
At this time, the African continent is intertwined with the distant horizon, and the green grass on the ground sways with the breeze. The white clouds in the distant sky turned so bewitching red in the light of the morning sun. At this time, the army of the African People's Army (APA) marched on a one-off journey. Their final destination was the northern ******** city of Tarime. Then divide the British forces in two and break them separately. It is possible to significantly shorten the duration of the war.
At this time, the area controlled by the British was now in chaos, and wave after wave of British colonists began to gather in the coastal cities, and behind them were hundreds of soldiers running or riding in cars under the cover of tanks, kicking up puffs of choking dust, weapons in hand, and galloping quickly in the direction of the next target. Puffs of black smoke rose from the cities the African People's Army passed, shells slammed into the walls, and the British positions exploded incessantly, kicking up the earth or flying huge stones, and from time to time people fell to the sound of explosions. The British still had the remnants of their machine guns in their defensive positions, still spitting out foul bullets, which chirped into the dirt like a scythe for harvesting wheat during harvest season, knocking down the denser soldiers standing in rows. But the soldiers still shouted loudly, emboldening themselves, and under the cover of their own machine-gun fire, they unconsciously distanced themselves from each other, but in this way the casualties would be minimized. At the same time, the tanks also continued to gather together, forming a steel bunker for the attacking fighters to cover the attack.
To the south, hundreds of heavy guns were set up where the naked eye could see, and when the muzzles of the artillery guns erupted bursts of flames and a burst of green smoke and sandstorms, it didn't take long for a huge cloud of black smoke to rise from the uneven walls around the target and the positions built by the British, and dirt, wood, broken corpses, and mutilated weapons flew in the smoke.
There were also dozens of planes painted with blood-red five-pointed stars and black sickle hammer heads in the air, like African vultures hunting for food, constantly hovering in the air, and when they found an attack target below, they quickly swooped down, and then flew up again with a flick of their butts, only one or two small black dots were thrown out from under the wings of the planes, creating one deep pit after another in the British position. The cannons and machine guns on the nose of the fighter planes were constantly firing at the ground.
Because of the shelling, the yellow-brown ground was full of lying soldiers, some of whom got up and rushed forward quickly during the short interval between machine gun and artillery fire, and then fell down again, and some never got up again after lying down. It was the economic center of the town and the military center of the British. The fall of the city, the capital city of Dodoma, where the cultural center is located, marked the fall of the British colonial regime ********. Therefore, the British resistance here is also very tenacious. It made the fighters feel uncomfortable.
At this time, a light tank that rushed to the front spat tongues of fire at the enemy position, while covering the soldiers behind the charge, probably due to artillery reasons to blow up a large crater on the ground, and soon fell in, at this time the grizzly tank was ready to rush out directly at full power, or climb out diagonally, but each time it ended in failure, and finally, out of nowhere, a battle defense artillery shell flew from somewhere directly penetrated the armor in front of the tank, only to hear a loud noise, the tank let the thick smoke cover, When the smoke cleared, the Grizzly Tank turned into a pile of scrap metal, paralyzed in place, unable to move. And the soldiers behind him were also killed and wounded by the tank explosion because they were too close.
"Infantry brothers! Stand up...... Rush up! Onward, victory beckons! ”
A tank colonel opened the lid on the roof of the tank, leaned out and shouted at the African People's Army soldiers lying on the ground to avoid enemy bullets, but after shouting for a long time, no one paid attention to him, those soldiers crawled on the ground, moving slowly like a group of turtles, the colonel boss was unhappy, got into the command vehicle and closed the cover, and after a while, the tank carrying the colonel rushed to the front, and then a major lying on the ground got up and said: "Stand up!" Don't lie on the ground like a! Follow up the tanks and rush up, as soon as they rush up, they will immediately raise their hands and surrender! …… Get up, get up for Lao Tzu! ”
An attack plane in the sky may have seen the battle below, a black bomb left the plane with a flick of the wings, and fell down towards the British position on the ground with a whistling sound, it turned out that the pilot in the sky found that the battle on the ground was scorching when he was hovering in the air, and looked up at the bomb and drew a beautiful parabola to applaud, but the word "good" had not yet been exported, and the bomb roared towards the British bunker, and in the whistling sound, the bomb fell on the British position. It landed in the place of the Englishman's dark fort that kept spitting out tongues of fire. There was a loud "boom". The British Bunker, which was still flaunting its might and spitting out tongues of fire just now, suddenly became dumb. After the smoke of gunpowder, it was found that the location of the original British bunker had become a large pit, surrounded by broken tiles and ruins.
At this time, the major found out about this situation, and found that there were still soldiers lying on the ground, and angrily kicked the nearest soldier lying on the ground and said: "Are you ****** dead, that bunker has been lifted by the Air Force brothers, and what are you doing on the ground, there is no chick on the ground to let you work hard, hurry up and follow the tank with me." ”
Then the soldiers lying on the ground stood up one by one and began to catch up with the tank with a tight pace. Now the remaining firing points and anti-aircraft guns of the British have been almost cleaned up by the three-plank axes of the African People's Army. Only sporadic firepower resisted, but the soldiers of the African People's Army (APA) quickly returned home in the face of absolute superiority.
Soon the tanks of the African People's Army crossed the first line of defense of the British army, followed by the soldiers who followed them, and the remaining soldiers in the British position realized that the enemy had rushed up. He bluntly chose to surrender and raised the weapon in his hand high above his head.
At this time, there was a miserable image in the British military headquarters in the city, and there were more than a dozen senior commanders sitting in the room, all of whom were wounded to some extent, which shows the intensity of the African People's Army's artillery fire. At this time, everyone looked silently at the lieutenant general sitting in front of them.
At this time, the lieutenant general had a cigarette in his mouth, and his eyes were blank and he looked at a huge map of Africa and thought.
