Chapter 26: The End of the Crusaders (3) (Still 2 in 1)
The 2nd battalion did not grow in size until the Crusader reinforcements arrived.
Even if there are planes in the sky constantly bombing and covering, and there is heavy artillery support on the ground plus all kinds of missiles and rocket artillery, but after the damn sea of people tactics come out, the pressure will inevitably increase.
Fortunately, the 2nd Battalion has experienced the crowd tactics several times, and will not be as caught off guard as the airborne troops guarding several nearby positions - the position garrisoned by an airborne battalion next door has entered hand-to-hand combat, it is hard to imagine that in the modern era when firepower is so strong, there will be hand-to-hand combat, but this is the case, the crusaders' fearless crowd tactics have made this kind of combat that has been extinct for nearly a hundred years re-interpreted on the earth.
It stands to reason that the Airborne Forces should not have been beaten so badly - the Eagles always claim that they were born to be surrounded by the enemy, but they are never afraid of being surrounded. Don't look at the airborne troops are very sharp when they attack, but they have never been afraid of vicious battles when they defend, why is it so miserable this time?
Actually, it's very simple, because there are so many enemies!
The crusaders are filled with a large number of direct troops of the Holy See and the Demon Temple, the most significant feature of this kind of army is that they are not afraid of death, and the religiously brainwashed GIs are the most unreasonable, when they shout that death is to ascend to heaven, the rows of fallen friendly troops are lucky in their eyes, and in the face of this kind of opponent who does not take their lives for their lives, they are also faced with a sea of people, and it is strange that the airborne troops are not attacked on the ground.
But the Airborne Forces are also notoriously tough, even in hand-to-hand combat, they will never take a step back, and defend their positions to the death.
In view of the crisis situation in the position next door, Ye Xiao and the wolf warrior discussed it slightly, and the wolf warrior led the reserve team to support, and before the support, he also used special incendiary bombs to build several insurmountable walls of fire one after another.
……
The reserve is composed of a special platoon, a reconnaissance platoon and a guard platoon of a company directly under it, and it is the most elite unit of the 2nd Battalion, and its combat effectiveness can be imagined, although the total number barely exceeds 100, the soldiers of the 101st Battalion of the 301st Regiment of the 2nd Airborne Division have seen for the first time what it means to be murderous!
Extremely ferocious!
3 platoons formed a battle queue, and they attacked the enemy who was blocked by the fire curtain on this side of the position, and the fire of alternating cover made hundreds of enemies unable to get close at all, and the special platoon with the fastest assault, although there were only more than 40 people, but they were simply a sharp knife, and they were fiercely inserted into the enemy group, and when the enemy recovered from the storm, they were horrified to find that they were almost chiseled through.
Hand-to-hand hand-to-hand combat is a joke for this elite force, if the enemy charges in a group, they will lie down in an orderly manner and launch a counterattack, destroying the enemy in the way of attack - unless there are seven or eight hundred people at once, there will be the most unwilling hand-to-hand combat.
But after being blocked by several walls of fire, how many enemies remained on this side of the position?
The commander of the 2nd Battalion of the 301st Regiment is leading his subordinates to start a white-knuckle battle with the enemy who has entered the position, saying that it is a white-knuckle battle, and the strafing of rifles and submachine guns has never stopped, and the airborne troops do not dare to strafe their comrades in fear, but the crusaders do not care about the life and death of their comrades, as long as they have the opportunity, they are a shuttle bullet, even if they are supreme allies, their faces will not change.
Nearly 500 soldiers of the entire 2nd Airborne Battalion, less than 350 of them are still fighting the battlefield at this moment, losing more than 1/3, when the reserve of the 2nd Battalion came over, the major who had only been promoted to the battalion commander finally breathed a sigh of relief, remembering his sacrificed subordinates, the major ordered in a cruel voice: "No prisoners will be left!" Kill Lao Tzu! Not a single captive! ”
After the reserve led by the wolf warrior cut off the enemy from the middle, there were only more than 200 crusaders who could face the 2nd Airborne Battalion, and the airborne troops had already occupied an absolute advantage.
Before, they were aggrieved because they had to deal with the enemy who attacked the position on the one hand, and on the other hand, they had to block the enemy who was constantly rushing to the position, but now as long as they concentrate on dealing with one side, the airborne troops composed of non-commissioned officers will naturally launch the most ferocious counterattack.
When the fire curtain built by the special incendiary bomb was slowly extinguished, there were basically no remnants of the crusaders who attacked the position, except for a few places that were still doing stubborn resistance, the rest had been killed, and the airborne troops thoroughly implemented the battalion commander's orders, leaving no prisoners, that is, some people were born with compassion, but after seeing the battlefield of the corpse, this compassion disappeared without a trace, not to mention, the vast majority of the airborne troops have already killed the red eye!
"With a flamethrower!"
Seeing that there were still three places where the enemy was stubbornly resisting, the airborne troops immediately moved out of the killing weapon, and several airborne soldiers with high-pressure jets on their backs drilled into the trenches, and when they were 100 meters away, they stretched out the sprinkler head and deducted the jet switch, and one after another fire dragons suddenly appeared, like a sprayer like a god holding a flame spear, coldly shook the fire dragon, and the stubborn enemy instantly became a fire man, no matter how firm their belief was, but at this moment, they would only scream in pain, not the gods they gave everything.
Out of nowhere, a bullet struck a flamethrower, and by chance it hit his jet backpack, causing the dragon to detonate as the high-pressure rucksack exploded, and a huge flame bloomed across the battlefield, devouring a loyal, bloody life.
The wolf warrior shouted "sniper in the direction of 2 o'clock" and fell to the ground at the same time, and after hearing the warning, the soldiers threw themselves on the ground without thinking about it, even if there was a pool of dirty blood in front of them, they did not hesitate.
The warning of the wolf warrior saved Du Bin, a soldier who was transferred by the special platoon not long ago, after feeling the tyrannical bullet flying over his head, a sense of happiness arose, and after secretly shouting "It's dangerous", he immediately became angry again - fuck, how dare you hit Lao Tzu? I'm going to kill you!
Du Bin turned the muzzle of the gun and searched for the target in the direction of 2 o'clock, and before he could determine where the sniper was, he saw a protruding place, and suddenly a flame burst out, and the flame thief burned in an instant, and then a burning man jumped up, and there was no sound in two clicks, leaving only the burning corpse.
This is a special incendiary bullet.
After seeing Cheng Haoran's cool OK gesture, Du Bin realized that Cheng Haoran did it.
More than 500 meters, he actually killed a sniper with a rifle, and he was a very hidden sniper.
"Prepare for the flash!"
The command of the wolf warrior came from the earset, and the three platoons immediately got up, covered each other and began to retreat, and did not go to ask for credit or communication with their airborne counterparts, because there was no need.
It's just that in this battle, the reserve lost 19 brothers, which made the soldiers very angry, you know, the special platoon and the reconnaissance platoon lost less than 20 comrades in the previous battles, and it is also because of this that some people make up for the seriously injured enemy, and everyone treats it as if they don't see it - according to the tradition of the empire, they should unconditionally help the wounded, even if the wounded are the enemy's.
The wolf warrior stretched out his thumb to the airborne troops as he left, praising their spirit, and at the same time muttering in his heart, fortunately, he had not encountered such a fierce airborne soldier on the exercise ground.
But he didn't know that it was the 2nd Battalion of the 301st Regiment, the armored infantry commanded by Ye Xiao on the battlefield, which easily tore open the defensive line and became an unforgettable shame for the 2nd Battalion of the Airborne Forces.
……
The first reinforcement that the 219th Division of the Yulin Army waited for was none other than the 2nd Brigade of the 2nd Group Army of the Black Flag Army with a vengeful heart, this composite brigade that was "forced" to abandon its position, after finally ushering in a counteroffensive, Brigadier General Ye Nanxiao slapped the table at the army headquarters and grabbed the first batch of support tasks.
The positions lost by the 2 Brigade must be regained by themselves, and they will get up from where they fall!
Even if it's because of strategic necessity.
In order to protect their own back road, the crusaders sent heavy troops to block the support troops of the imperial army, Ye Nanxiao said in the public channel of the brigade headquarters: "3 hours, this road must be dug within 3 hours, either we all fall on the way to charge, or we complete the task within the specified time!" ”
The 2 Brigade, which had less than 3,000 men left, was still full of fighting spirit, and immediately after the order to attack was given, they rushed to the battlefield.
The 2nd Brigade, which has been on the defensive, has become a sharp attacker this time, and it is also the first unit of the Imperial Army to take the initiative to attack the enemy since the establishment of the composite force, and before, they have been defending the battle line with blood.
The attack of the imperial army will definitely not be like the crusaders at the end of the road, risking human lives to attack thoroughly, long before the attack, the air force and missile units launched bombing, all the targets marked by the reconnaissance troops, have become the targets of their bombing, and the bombing continued until the attacking troops of the imperial army were close to the battlefield 800 meters before they stopped abruptly, and at this time, the attacking troops killed.
The attack of the 2nd Brigade has always been unhurried, they advance very slowly, relying on the cover of infantry and armored vehicles, constantly approaching the enemy position, when the enemy howls with machine gun fire, the infantry will quickly hide behind the armored vehicles, and then command rockets or missiles to kill the machine gun fire, and then resolutely move slowly.
But it is this rhythm that makes the defending enemy helpless, and the positions they seize with the tactics of the sea of people have nothing to take advantage of when defending - because the attacking troops are too cunning, if this is a tropical jungle or a city, the defenders can also use the city to fight street battles, but this is a plain, there are mountains, that is, they are short for tens or hundreds of meters, and there is no moat to rely on.
And the fortifications have been destroyed a long time ago, and even if they have been built a little now, how many of them can be preserved after the air raids and missile attacks?
Major Hahaha's command vehicle was in the second echelon of the attack, and the command vehicle should have been at the rear, but this time, Hahaha said that everything had to be stuffed forward, and after the staff officers and deputy battalion commanders dissuaded it ineffectively, they could only compromise with Major Hahaha in the end, and the command vehicle was mixed in the second echelon.
"We are the 2 brigade and the 1 battalion! The first fully formed composite battalion of the entire 2 brigade! But look at it, the 2nd battalion of the is still on the battlefield, and we are actually the dogs of the lost family! ”
"This time the battalion headquarters will follow you, either we will become the benchmark of the 2 Brigade again, or we will become a disgrace to the 2 Brigade! When Lao Tzu doesn't want to see the 2nd battalion, let them treat us as gray grandsons! ”
The 1st Battalion and the 2nd Battalion have been competing, and the two battalions are evenly divided - the commander of the 2nd Battalion is a monster, which is no way, but the guys of the 1st Battalion are fighting for the first place after all, and they always compete with the 2nd Battalion for the first place, but this time, no matter what, the 2nd Battalion is still on the battlefield, but what about the 1st Battalion? actually ran away, although it was an order from the brigade headquarters, but compared with the 2nd battalion, it was indeed weaker, and the soldiers of the 1st battalion were unwilling, now that the battalion commander is shirtless, how can they lag behind?
One by one, like hungry wolves out of the circle, they howled and attacked.
How fucking thick is the crusade line of the dog's day?
Hahaha Major jumped in the command car, has entered the blocking line for a kilometer, but the enemy still seems to have no end, the front team of the 1st company has shown fatigue, hahaha saw this, decisively let the 2nd company of the infantry replace the 1st company, and at the same time stubbornly let the command car go to the first echelon, this time he made the request extremely strongly, after the staff officers refuted ineffectively, they could only take risks with the bold commander - God knows what will happen to the entire 1st battalion if the command vehicle is killed.
Although the command vehicle has the same appearance as other armored vehicles, but the inside is ten millimeters thicker, this does not mean that it can take a few more shots, and it is not a heavy combat vehicle.
However, the luck of the command vehicle was not bad, and it did not get hit after advancing nearly 500 meters, and when the staff officers had just secretly called for luck, a field gun hit the command vehicle, and after the command vehicle shook for a moment, it went directly to the nest.
The occupants of the car were stunned by the explosion just now, and more than 30 seconds have passed, and the two drivers have fallen in a pool of blood, not knowing whether they are alive or dead - fortunately, there are solid partitions between the cab and the command room.
Hahaha was the first to wake up from the dizziness, after all, he was born in the Airborne Forces, and his quality is good.
After seeing the situation in the car, hahaha reluctantly called the paramedics, then struggled to open the back door, staggered out to check the situation, the situation was not bad, there was no fire, but the tracks were broken, and the wheels were gone, fortunately it was an ordinary shell, not an armor-piercing shell, otherwise the 1st battalion would have suffered a big loss this time.
There were already armored vehicles surrounding, hahaha understood that he didn't have to worry about the follow-up, and after climbing into an armored car, he ordered: "Keep going!" ”
"Camp, you ......"
"What are you!" Hahaha rudely interrupted his subordinates' concern: "Keep going!" Don't stop! ”
……
Just when the Black Flag Army was trying to break through the blocking line to support friendly forces, a crusader convoy consisting of 130 heavily armored vehicles, more than 300 armored vehicles and the same number of infantry vehicles slaughtered the imperial defense line.
This is the last demonized family base of the Left Crusaders, which was originally the force hidden by the Left Crusaders for the final assault - just imagine, when the battle is fierce, when both sides are fighting to the death with all their might, what would it be like to keep the Mechanized Legion into the warband?
There is no doubt that even a group army will be stabbed like this at a critical time, and a complete collapse is also an inevitable result.
Moreover, because the Crusaders had lost the advantage of the air force, they planned to use this force at night, but now hundreds of thousands of troops were in a desperate situation because of the defection of the 308th Division, and in order to rescue the elite forces on the left, the Crusaders used this assault force during the day.
In order to strengthen the air defense of this assault force, only anti-aircraft missiles and self-propelled anti-aircraft guns on the left were even added to it.
After two hours of marching and two hours of air raids, the assault force, which had lost 30 per cent, reached less than 10 kilometers from the 30 to 36 salients.
This will be the last stand of the Left Crusaders!
