Just when the Sixth Division attacked the 456 Heights, the Fifth Division also launched an attack on the 358 Heights, and under the fierce bombardment of artillery, the soldiers of the Fifth Division launched an attack on the 358 Heights, which was a great test for their own soldiers. Because flying shells can fall and explode in their own crowd at any time. Throughout modern military history, only the PLA of our country has dared to play like this.

Soon the soldiers quickly rushed to the British position on the 358th height, and at this time the artillery regiment of the 5th Division also saw the situation and stopped the shelling. At the time when the British found out that the other side had stopped shelling. Those who survived hurriedly walked out of their respective bunkers. But they were already taken aback. They found that the enemy was already close at hand. Hurriedly prepared to resist. But as soon as he moved the gun, he was killed by the sharp-eyed warrior to the ground. When the remaining Britons saw this, they quickly and wisely raised their rifles above their heads and chose to surrender.

Of course, the British commanders stationed at Heights 358 were lucky, their headquarters were not destroyed by the fire of the African People's Army, and after the shelling was over, they found that the other side had already engaged them in close combat. It was wise to surrender with the warriors. was able to save his life.

Although the tactics chosen by the Fifth Division were very dangerous, they were a bit of a posture of playing with fire and setting themselves on fire. But this tactic made it impossible for the British to use it. The battle of the 5th Division ended fifteen minutes earlier than the end of the 6th Division.

Less than an hour into the battle, the APA flag was raised on Hill 358, and less than ten minutes later, the APA flag was raised on Hill 456.

After Li Junhao and others who were far away in the general headquarters saw it. This is what Lee Jun-ho said: "It is true that all imperialists are paper tigers, as long as your fists are harder than these paper tigers." Then you can smash them with one punch. ”

"Yes, Commander, you have a point. Now the first operational objective of our army has been accomplished. Is it to carry out a campaign to capture the city of Tondulu. Jeriola said:

After hearing this, Li Junhao said: "You Jeriola is the commander-in-chief of the front, and I am just a watchman, don't ask me everything, just be there when I'm not there." ”

Just when Li Junhao and others were holding a meeting at their headquarters, the British garrison officers who were far away in Tonduru City also gathered together, and the African People's Army completely annihilated the defenders of the 358th and 456th heights within an hour, and more than 30,000 people did not even make a splash. There were less than 50,000 Royal Army soldiers in the city, and those servants were largely dispensable, lacking a large number of heavy weapons of their own. Is it possible to use this little force to stop hundreds of thousands of wolf-like enemy troops? He shook his heavy head helplessly.

He had originally planned to let the defenders stationed on the two heights outside the city hold off the enemy for 12 hours, so he drew a large number of light and heavy weapons from other armies to supplement the two defenders, so that they could consume the enemy's living forces to buy themselves a little more time. As a result, it was eaten clean by the enemy in less than an hour. Now it is not good that he has a serious shortage of weapons in his hands, and his morale has been severely damaged. Counterproductive. In desperation, Major General Bertrand had no choice but to gather all his heads and brains for a meeting.

"General, according to the opinion of his subordinates, this Tongdulu City cannot be defended! The subordinates suggested that we first guard the city gate, and seize the time to break through before the enemy completes the siege of Tondulu City, otherwise we will be finished once the other party completes the siege. A brigadier general in his thirties said:

"You and I, as soldiers, have the responsibility to defend the territory, and they can retreat lightly, and the Governor has ordered us to retreat once we retreat, will you take the responsibility for the loss of the city?" A brigadier general in his twenties stood up and retorted:

After hearing this, Major General Bertrand said: "All right, don't make any noise. I have decided that the city of Tonduru will now be defended by the servant army, and we will wait for an opportunity to break out. All responsibilities are borne by the general. ”

The dog habit of the British is evident, and they will sacrifice the colonial soldiers to protect themselves at critical moments. However, the commander-in-chief of the African People's Army, Jeriola, had already expected that the British would wait for an opportunity to break through, so the pace of the African People's Army interspersed with encirclement was unusually fast. Just as the British were preparing to retreat, the African People's Army had completed the encirclement of Tonduru.

Not long after the tens of thousands of British troops in Tonduru City left the city, they were forced back into the city by the fire of the People's Army. Now they have two options: either they hold on to the end without any reinforcements. There was only one result, and that was total annihilation. Either open the gates and surrender, which can save tens of thousands of lives. But they heard that the rebels were cruel to the British officers who surrendered. , to be imprisoned, to do coolies, to be interrogated, and even to the ground. These officers collectively decided to die to the end. Maybe there will be some reinforcements to support him. Of course, this is just the wishful thinking of these Englishmen.

Just as the British army was preparing to stubbornly defend it, the battle order for the African People's Army to liberate the city of Tunduru was issued. The AFRA attacking units finished their lunches half an hour early. Artillery units deployed near the 456 and 358 heights began heavy shelling. The earth-shattering sound of artillery frightened the British troops in the city. When the end of the world comes, they usually flee in all directions. Look for cover everywhere. But in the process. The broken walls were blown away by the shells, the rubble and broken bricks were splashed everywhere, and some British soldiers who could not dodge were buried and killed by these rubble. At this time, it was the official lunch time of the British army, and the African People's Army chose this time period to launch an artillery bombardment, in order to take advantage of the British army to gather. Saturation shelling was carried out. As a result, the shelling effect was very good. In the course of a round of shelling. These British troops paid a heavy price. A large number of British soldiers became starving ghosts.

"Kandanya, the second round of shelling is about to start again, remember not to be nervous, after the second round of shelling is over, it is time for us to attack, remember to be smart when the time comes. You must protect yourself, no one can take care of anyone. A non-commissioned officer squad leader of the African People's Army explained:

The soldiers who came out of the Red Police base were not the kind of killing machines born purely for war, they had the same emotions and desires as ordinary people. So some veterans also know to protect new recruits. These recruits also have the fear of ordinary people. Otherwise, Lee Jun-ho's millions of extra troops on African soil would not have been in a war, and it would not have been chaotic.

"Here it is again, the squad leader is good at everything, but that mouth is too annoying, and I'm not a three-year-old child anymore. Annoying. Kandanya thought. But then I thought about it: I must be grateful for the squad leader's self-treatment for me, how can I think of him as annoying. The squad leader is sorry.
