Chapter 1092: Gray Cattle!

The Russian shells landed accurately on the positions of Zheng Guohong's regiment.

Fifty or sixty hexagonal guns were lined up in the wilderness directly west of the position, and the momentum was naturally not as strong as the previous battle of Astrakhan, but the momentum was also very impressive. Because the area of the Turinsk battlefield is smaller.

The weather was sunny and the north wind was cold, but not crazy. Under the guidance of the school-firing balloon, the Russian artillery shells were relatively accurate, and yellow columns of smoke rose from the front-line positions of the Wehrmacht, and from time to time civil stones were smashed and smashed open, and fragments flew in all directions.

Zheng Guohong had already gone to the front-line headquarters, holding a telescope in his hand and watching the battle with a gloomy face. Lao Maozi really worked hard, and there were at least fifty or sixty cannons lined up alone! Compared with the twelve guns in his hand, it can be described as an absolute advantage in firepower. As soon as your artillery bombards it, it will reveal the location of the artillery position, and it will immediately attract the covering bombardment of Russian artillery - there are also their school-fired balloons in the air.

The fifty or sixty cannons on the opposite side bombarded out, and the bright light that burst out seemed to turn the position into a thunder pool.

It is also because the artillery on the side of the Wehrmacht is strong, it is still semi-underground, and the target is small, even if it is hit by a Russian shell, it is not a big problem. And the Russian army has not yet found those artillery forts. Zheng Guohong has ordered that all cannons are not allowed to fire, and he has to wait for a suitable opportunity to give Lao Maozi a hard blow!

The two-hour artillery fire was ready to end in the blink of an eye, and the Wehrmacht and Russian positions were already enveloped in gunsmoke, and the smoke from the explosion of thousands of shells and more rockets enveloped the entire battlefield. But everyone knows that after the artillery fire, the infantry charge has begun! Zheng Guohong also passed down the order, ordering all troops in the second-line tunnels to enter the first-line combat positions! The Russian army is about to come up.

"For Russia, for His Majesty the Tsar, soldiers, follow me!"

The lieutenant colonel of the 5th regiment, Sergeyev, shouted slogans. It was an attack of more than 3,000 men. The main forces of the two Russian regiments were all thrown into the war, and their offensive against the Wehrmacht was calculated on a regimental basis, without even a tentative attack, and the two regiment commanders Sergeyev and Lazarev bravely walked on the front line.

Hearing the roar of their regimental commander, more Russian officers and soldiers also let out the same cry from their chests. More than 3,000 soldiers, straightened up, each holding their bayonet-mounted rifles, strode forward with the officers wielding their command knives.

The soldiers were like a tide, rushing and boiling.

Although the Russian army is mainly recruited, for now, they do not lack courage. As the soldiers advanced, they pulled out of formation and set up a standard offensive skirmisher line!

It was already dusk, which was the time for many large-scale offensive battles, because night would soon fall, and the night would put on a layer of cover for the attacking Russian troops, and the Wehrmacht could only observe the 'lines' of the Russian army with flares. Zheng Guohong, who was standing on the front line of the National Defense Force, and several equally experienced officers watched all this with ice on their faces!

Ice is cold, heavy, solid, and calming.

"Launch rockets, intercept shots!"

When the Wehrmacht as a whole is faced with an enemy attack, it is like a sophisticated machine, and it is how to respond to the enemy's situation. Against stragglers, hexagonal cannons are unreliable. Moreover, the hexagonal cannon cannot shoot shotguns, grapeshot shells and flowering shells, and before it could only rely on rockets, but now there are more rockets.

There are rockets in the distance, rockets and mortars in the distance, plus sniper shooting, and even closer it is a rain of bullets.

"Whoosh ......"

Three hundred shells were wiped out in just one minute. The sound is like an amplified version of the second kick during the Chinese New Year, very sharp.

The artillery fire of the Russian army in retaliation arrived, but it was too late. The rocket-launching soldiers had already retreated.

As mentioned earlier, the rocket is a very low-tech thing, simple to manufacture, and simpler to launch. Skills training is not required. Because no matter how awesome the shooter is, he can't guarantee that the rocket he shoots will fly to the back of his own position.

This is no joke.

When encountering reverse windy weather, the rocket will really be like a headless fly under the action of the wind, making a bend in the air and falling to the back of its own people's buttocks.

The Russian soldiers were unlucky. But this is the battlefield, this is the war.

Whether it is now, or in the previous era of platoon shooting, it is indispensable to withstand the heavy fire bombardment of the enemy and step by step close to the ground army position.

There were no high-explosive shells in the era of platoon shooting, but there were also shotguns with great lethality, as well as flowering shells. Even the most basic solid bullets, after hitting a neat queue of soldiers, the lethality cannot be underestimated.

Under the illumination of the flares, the Russian army's charging queue was very clear, and such a large 'skirmish line' could hit a rocket on the heads of those Russian soldiers almost with their eyes closed.

Therefore, even if the rocket cannot guarantee the specific killing power, it can plunge the attacking Russian army into a hell of fire.

Rockets are not very powerful, but they cannot withstand their density and speed. The whistling shrenchnel could not kill people, but could also cut flesh and blood, and almost instantly caused a scream to resound in the ranks of the Russian army.

Even if the formation of the Russian army was very loose, it still suffered some losses at the first time. However, there are still more Russian soldiers who were not hit. They all reacted immediately - prostrate, lying on the ground motionless. This is the best way to dodge rockets or rockets on the battlefield.

The rocket attack of the Wehrmacht did not last, and the Russian army quickly jumped up and charged!

In this way, when the distance was close to only 500 meters, they were baptized by rockets again. The response of the Russian army is still lying on the spot, but there are also brave ones, rushing forward with bayonets. It wasn't until the distance approached two hundred meters that the Wehrmacht soldiers began to shoot. The Russian army was another burst of artillery attacks, and the rocketeers who followed behind the charging team also fired rockets at the positions of the Wehrmacht, of course, the Wehrmacht did not show weakness in using rockets and rocket artillery to make a clear attack for the invading Russian army. Then the Russian soldiers began the final charge with the loud orders of Sergeyev and Lazarev.

"Rush! For the glory of Russia! ”

"For the Holy Fatherland, for the great Tsarist ......"

"Let's defeat Chinese as Napoleon did and defend our homeland......"

The Russian army was even more averse to the Chinese than Napoleon. Napoleon did not threaten large swaths of Russian civilians with death and brutally expelled them from his homeland. Moreover, no matter how far away Napoleon's 'blood' relationship with Russia is, Napoleon and Russia also belong to the Western world and share the same values with each other. And what about the Chinese? That's completely different from the Russians.

In the sound of slogans, the speed of the Russian army's charge was faster.

Ulla's cries resounded throughout the battlefield. But many Russian soldiers were already frightened by the rocket attack and the threat of death, and at the moment their pace of charge was not so determined, most of them were recruits after all, who had not experienced the baptism of blood and fire, and had not experienced death.

Although there are also some Russian soldiers who are extremely resolute, they are covered in blood, like a group of fierce gods and evil spirits rushing out of hell! But most of the Russian soldiers hesitated.

The two regiment commanders, Sergeyev and Lazarev, played a good leading role, otherwise the Russian charge would not necessarily be able to rush.

A group of recruits have been able to rush to within 200 meters of the enemy's position for the first time on the battlefield, which is already excellent.

The artillery preparation of the Russian army has destroyed many obstacles set in front of the position, and the fences and breastworks here and there have fallen apart under the blows of hexagonal guns, clearing the passages for the infantry to attack.

"Hit! Aim for me and hit me hard! Zheng Guohong raised his arms and shouted.

Rockets, rockets, and rifles in the trenches were fired at the same time. Countless thin red rays of light, either alone or in a string. At great speed, he flew towards the Russians two hundred meters away. The Russian stormtroopers were hit head-on, and the soldiers immediately fell down with screams.

The Russian soldiers who rushed to the front were almost all swept down, but the people behind continued to rush forward!

This was the quality of the recruits of the Russian Empire, and it was also the 'grey livestock' on which the Romanov dynasty relied to deter Europe. Perhaps one of the major reasons why they performed so well was because they were waging a 'just' war against aggression, and they were 'defending their homeland and country'.

Of course, in Zheng Guohong's eyes, all heroic Russian soldiers should be damned.

The low-level officers of Russia are also very heroic, one by one they brandished their sabers and led the charge with their heads held high. They are the cornerstone of the entire Russian army.

Having just defeated Napoleon's invasion, many officers in these armies have experienced the grind of that great war, and many more have been injured in that war, and many of the backbone and grassroots officers of the Russian new army are the original wounded soldiers who returned after recovery. And the middle and high-ranking officers are the injured officers who have been promoted.

Of course, some of the Russian soldiers stopped advancing, either kneeling on one knee or lying on the ground, aiming their rifles at the Wehrmacht's point of fire in a burst of heavy fire. A dense rain of bullets stirred up small columns of smoke around several rocket launch sites, but to no avail.

Rockets and rockets are an important means for the Wehrmacht to stop the Russian army, and this war has only just begun, and the Russians cannot rush to the position at one time.

The Russian soldiers were constantly being hit and rushing up.

Two hundred meters, one hundred and fifty meters, one hundred meters. Then the Russian army retreated.

But this is only the beginning, and the Russian army will inevitably launch a second and third charge tonight......

Every attack of the Russian army consumes not only the arms of the Wehrmacht, but also the physical strength and energy of the Wehrmacht soldiers. They were also getting closer and closer to the positions of the Wehrmacht, a hundred, seventy, fifty meters......

"Throw grenades!"

Zheng Guohong gave a loud order, and without his command, the officers on the front-line positions had already given orders loudly, hundreds of grenades flew out of the trenches, and the explosions sounded in front of the trenches. The Russian soldiers who were put in front of the position were once again severely damaged, and they were blown down by grenades one by one!

Although the 'gray animals' of Tsarist Russia are very brave, they have not yet reached the point where they will go forward and follow each other and regard death as home! The Russians fled back in disarray, and that was the end of their attack that night. Zheng Guohong held the binoculars, and then raised the flare in the sky, watching the Russian army withdraw from the battlefield in embarrassment, and then he did it to the empty ammunition box under the trench.

"Let the logistics prepare some more grenades. Order all troops to continue to be on alert and beware of the sneak attack of the Russian army! ”

The bullet grazed Zheng Guohong's cheek, leaving a bloody trail. Zheng Guohong didn't feel any pain during the battle, this old man retreated, and he suddenly felt that his face was hot.

"Danza, you have a gash on your face. I'll bandage you! "The hygienist came very quickly.

All parts of the position are seizing the time to count the casualties, and some people are also sent to the battlefield to collect rifles, ammunition, etc., abandoned by the Russian army.

It was dawn, and the stars disappeared into the morning light.

The fighting on the battlefield did not stop at all. This was a sneak attack of the Russian army before dawn, with the new force replacing the 4th and 5th regiments, and the strength of more than 2,000 troops annihilated the bullets of the Wehrmacht and drowned the positions of the Wehrmacht.

Zheng Guohong has already added troops to the defenders on the front line. But in the three offensive and defensive battles at night, the defenders of the front-line positions were seriously consumed in terms of energy and physical strength. This time it was manifested in the fact that part of the Russian army rushed to the positions of the Wehrmacht.

The grenades also failed to stop the charge of the Russians. Groups of Russian soldiers have finally poured into the Wehrmacht trenches!

Hand-to-hand combat began in this trench immediately!
