Chapter 177: Battle of Madagascar 18
Originally, the scenery of Madagascar was very good, but it was bumped by this damn jeep, and no matter how good the scenery was, I didn't want to enjoy it. Patronized to deal with the scope of the problem. Just when the regimental commander felt more and more unbearable, the jeep under his feet suddenly braked violently. It turned out that the destination of his trip had arrived.
At this time, the head of the regiment didn't care about any demeanor or anything like that. After opening the car door directly and seeing the land below, the regimental commander felt much more comfortable in his stomach. The head of the regiment relieved his adverse reaction a little. He took the individual walkie-talkie handed over by his guard, picked up the microphone and said: "All personnel, please check your weapons and equipment, and remember not to drop the chain at a critical moment and lose the face of our vanguard." The large army will pass through here for liberation
Soon the tall baffle at the front was quickly lowered, revealing the beach in front of it. Zhang Yanbo ripped off the plastic sleeve of the Type 5 or 6 rifle in his hand in order to be waterproof and shouted: "Everyone take off the holster, remember that the muzzle is facing upwards and the barrel of the gun cannot enter the sand, everyone rush with me!" ”
At this moment, all the artillery of all the regimental artillery battalions launched a fierce bombardment on the town in front of them, and for a time the whole town exploded continuously, and the smoke of gunpowder was everywhere.
"Rush"
When the soldiers around the regimental commander saw this, they rushed over with their guns in their hands after their regiment commander gave an order. At this time, the huge craters that appeared along the way shocked them fiercely. Obviously, these huge craters are the work of the Air Force bombing. The appearance of such craters must be a masterpiece left by more than a ton of aerial bombs. These soldiers were very confident at this time. There must not be much of the defenders left here. Under the care of these aerial bombs, coupled with their own regimental artillery battalions, if they were blown up like this, they were basically reimbursed for powder.
At this time, the entire area around the town was full of their army brothers, and above them were vulture vertical bombers or Black Tiger fighters, some of them belonged to the air force, some of them belonged to the navy. At this time, they had firmly grasped the air supremacy of Madagascar. As soon as it is discovered that there are targets of resistance from the French on the ground, what awaits them is the relentless blows of these sky darlings.
At this time, a platoon commander rushed to the front in the lead, and behind him were thirty brothers under his command. After sprinting for hundreds of meters, they found that they did not encounter the slightest fire resistance. This surprised the platoon commander. When he was a soldier, he fought the French in Mozambique, and the fire was quite fierce. More than a dozen of his comrades-in-arms, including his squad leader, died under the opponent's fire. Now it's good that the whole town doesn't move except for the voices of his comrades.
"Platoon leader, why is the whole town so quiet. Could it be that these French have already run away. This is a platoon commander who said out of breath as he ran.
"How would I know, anyway, when I enter the town, I will know the result. And what are you doing so close to me, you're tired of it, don't you, you want to be a target for the French? When the platoon commander saw this, he was afraid that his subordinate would be too close to him, so he had to show his identity as a platoon commander to teach the squad leader a lesson.
When the platoon commander and all the soldiers rushed past the bombed-up walls and came to a more well-built trench. They finally knew why they had not met with resistance from the French army, and these trenches were filled with fragments of corpses, and there were more French soldiers lying in the tunnels bleeding from their ears and noses, not only in the trenches, but also in the bunkers.
Next to them are bomb craters the size of a swimming pool, no need to look at this must be the good work of those vulture bombers or Black Hawks in the sky, and only they can drop the heavy bomb of one or two tons here, to be able to blow up such an amazing effect, these defenders in the whole town are killed by these giant bombs!
"Report to the Governor that the chimpanzees have captured the city of Murondava, and that Murondava's two native divisions and one servant division have been annihilated. Just now our intelligence officers have reported that the vanguard of the chimpanzees has taken the town of Mejandrova, and that they are now rushing towards Angelizatu. ”
In the Viceroyalty of Antananarivo, a French officer sweats profusely to report the latest situation to the Governor of Madagascar, Conrad.
"Got it!" Conrad waved his hand to signal the officer to step back, and then leaned weakly back on the couch behind him, confused. Before that, when I was bombed by this African people's republic, I already knew that these blacks must go all out to attack Madagascar, but I was still ambitious that I could hold out here for more than half a year. The coastline can also last for four or five days. As a result, it ended in just over an hour. The loss of his own transit center in Madagascar, the town of Mejandrova, meant that the heavy equipment of those blacks could be continuously driven. In the face of the continuous fierce attacks of those blacks. Can this Angeli Zatu hold on? Once Angeli Zatu is lost, Madagascar will be split in two. Conrad shuddered at the thought of this.
"Judging from the reports from the front, the Governor's attacks on these blacks were so fierce that an infantry division guarding Angeli Zatu could not hold it at all. It seems that the only way to do this is to give them reinforcements. But the defenders of the entire island of Madagascar had already suffered casualties. Plus everywhere to guard. Where in the whole of Madagascar are there still troops to mobilize? ”
"Judging from the situation reported from the front, the attack of the African blacks is very strong, and the 18th Brigade and the 5th Division of the Servant Army, which originally guarded Angeli Zatu, don't know if they can hold it, it seems that they still have to increase their troops, but where do they have to move this force?" Conrad thought about it for a long time, but found that he really couldn't draw a decent force on hand.
"Is it necessary to recruit expatriates in Madagascar?" After thinking about it for a long time, Conrad vetoed this idea, not to mention how much combat effectiveness this unit composed of retired soldiers had, but said that if his own guard division was also transferred, then he Conrad would really become the commander of the light pole.
