Chapter Twenty-Eight: An Yun's Counterattack 5
At this time, the periphery of the brick factory where Tang Xunliang was located was different, because the brick factory was far away from the camp, it was believed that there were relatively few people stationed, and because there were only 500 people in the group, they stopped at the edge of the jungle and hid behind the bushes in order to try not to be discovered. But with the help of reports from concealed observation posts and high-powered binoculars, these military households, dressed in near-uniform uniforms, were spotted almost as soon as they reached the edge of the jungle.
"Senho-sama, when are we going to attack?" A hundred households came over and asked Ruan Shimin, who was looking into the distance.
Ruan Shimin squinted his eyes and looked around for a while, and replied: "Let's wait for the village Yong over there to attack first, and when there is an emergency over there, there will be pirates here who will go out to rescue them, and I will attack them again and kill them in one fell swoop." ”
"Yes, Lord Qianhu is strategizing, and this battle will be a big victory!" Baihu nodded yes again and again.
After all, Ruan Shimin is a warlord, just by looking at it from a distance, he has already found a lot of things wrong, these pirates did not build a high wall on the periphery, but directly built a wall about half a person high with soil, people are hiding behind the wall and poking their heads out, from time to time pirates will probe out and peep out with two telescopes. All the trees from their hiding place to the outer perimeter of the pirates have been cut down, which is a distance of more than two hundred steps, during which the stumps and shrubs are all over the place, which can not be concealed, and hinder the movement of the gun carts, if according to Wu Wenshan, the pirates can play the role of their firearms, he can't help but shake his head, and secretly sigh that this is really not an easy battle.
"Team Tang, the bandits are on the periphery, and we are just waiting for them to fight?" Wu Di's heart was itching, and he took the safety of the Bayi automatic rifle in his hand and turned it on and off, and turned it off and on the ground several times.
Tang Xunliang slapped him on the steel helmet, "This meat has been delivered to your mouth, why are you in a hurry when you open your mouth and wait to eat?" ”
"They have cannons! We can't wait here to be shelled, can we? Xiao Lihua squatted in the tunnel on the side, "Most of the casualties in the Soviet-German war were killed by artillery!" ”
Wu Di, who was impatient on the side, laughed, "This buddy, you took the cannon they brought as a 152 howitzer, right?" ”
Xiao Lihua was just a young man who came out of the countryside to be a soldier, and he didn't know the difference between a cannon and a cannon, so he just stared at Wu Di with wide eyes.
"The guns of these years are nothing more than smoothbore cannons, that is, the propellant is poured into it and stuffed tightly, and then a bowling ball is thrown in, and the bowling ball is thrown out with a bang after ignition, and what can be smashed is nothing." Wu Di only felt that the steel helmet was hot in the sun at this time, so he took it off and put it on the mound of soil on the side.
Tang Xunliang hurriedly patted him on the back, "Don't take off the steel helmet, wait for the next fight to ask for a place where the steel helmet is used." ”
At this moment, shouts of killing began to be heard from the direction of the camp in the distance. Everyone's hearts sank, and the offensive began!
Zeng Zhigang saw that these bandit-like villagers shouted at the periphery of the timber mill like chicken blood at this time, and then seven or eight carts were pushed and rushed up, but when the defenders cleaned up the shooting boundary, they only cut down the trees, and did not clean up the shrubs, vines and stumps on the ground, and even some trees that were not mature were directly abandoned on the ground, these obstacles now seriously affected the movement of the cart, and the villagers shrank behind the cart and pushed forward at a speed slower than a turtle. The villagers began to feel impatient as they walked, and cursed loudly to the people pushing the cart in front, and the people in front of the cart could only bury their heads in misery and continue to push the cart hard. An attack at the good end was tossed like a farce.
The distance began to approach a hundred meters, and the villagers noticed that the heads wearing glowing iron hats under the low earthen wall in the distance began to increase, and then along the earthen wall stretched out one after another firecrackers, many of which also had short swords with cold light inserted underneath. Suddenly, I heard a loud shout from behind the low wall opposite: "Shoot!" ”
Then all the firecrackers began to spit out tongues of fire at them. As soon as the villagers saw that the other party had begun to fire, they immediately raised the weapons in their hands and ran at full speed against the low wall, and for a while they didn't even care about the big car that was covering them, and rushed out directly around it.
They made a huge mistake, the firearms in the hands of these pirates were not the firearms they were familiar with, they originally planned to rush upwards against the opponent's firecrackers that needed to be reloaded for a long time after firing the firearms together, and they could rush up with a dozen people desperately, but the fire of the semi-automatic and automatic rifles showed no signs of stopping in front of them, and the rapid firepower and dense bullets quickly knocked over the fifty or sixty people who charged in front. The villagers who were not injured were stunned, and one by one they couldn't help but stop in front of the rapid firepower, and stood on the spot, not knowing what to do.
Liu Mingyuan was riding on a horse at this time, walking behind the team with the cart, next to him were a few villagers who were good at riding horses and slashing, and when he saw the villagers being frightened by the endless fright, he hurriedly waved the long knife in his hand and shouted loudly: "The pirate firepower will not last!" Rush up! The villagers around him were all from his Liujiazhai, and they also waved the weapons in their hands together and took the lead in rushing forward while shouting.
The power of example is very powerful, as long as someone carries it, these stunned villagers immediately found the backbone and rushed up together.
Five-and-a-half rifles are only magazines for ten rounds, and even Bayi rifles can only be loaded with thirty rounds at a time, and once they shoot excitedly, no one pays attention to how many bullets they have left in their magazines. There were less than thirty people defending in the front-line trenches, and at this time, only half a minute after the battle, the front-line people found that there were no bullets in the guns! With the exception of a few veterans who had participated in the exercise when they were soldiers, all the militiamen had their guns empty.
In a hurry, people saw the swarming townsmen with distorted faces, and rushed towards themselves while howling viciously, and the rifles in their hands were completely different, and the game generally made these townsmen fight to death, at this time they were all in chaos, and the ten-shot bridge clips that were randomly stuffed in the jacket pockets before the battle could not be pulled out, and several of them barely took out the bridge clamps but could not fit them into the five or six half magazines, and even more, a nervous militia even pulled the trigger when the bolt was turned on, The receiver cut off a piece of meat from his left index finger, screaming in pain.
Despite the thorny vines under their feet, the villagers struggled to seize the interval of the shooting and rushed forward for another seventy or eighty meters, less than twenty meters away from the first-line trenches, and the traversers could even see the pockmarks on their faces clearly, and a few of them were splashed with the blood of their companions and their faces were hideous, which made the traversers frightened and inexplicable, and soon the first deserter appeared.
A militiaman collapsed in an extremely tense situation, he threw five or six halves in his hand to the ground and desperately ran towards the second line of defense behind the timber mill, Zeng Zhigang was on the second line of defense, and was about to call the people on the front line to retreat, when he happened to witness the whole process of this deserter landing over the trench of the second line of defense with vigorous steps and running directly to the timber mill.
The appeal of escaping was powerful, and in the blink of an eye, except for the three members of the military group in the first-line trenches, the others either dropped their rifles in their hands, or dragged their rifles backwards and ran back. At this time, the villagers had already rushed to the distance where they could fire bows and arrows, and the range of the short bows they used was only more than 20 meters, which happened to be within the range at this time, so they directly stood in front of the trench and fired a shot at the back.
"Quickly retreat to the second line!" Zeng Zhigang shouted anxiously at this time, and he saw the three members of the military group retreating alternately while picking up the rifles discarded by the militia on the ground. Soon a man was shot in the calf and fell to the ground with a pop, and three or four rifles on his back were scattered all over the ground. The two covering military crew members also didn't care about picking up their guns, so they hurriedly rushed up to set him up and ran back.
Xue Ziliang was anxious at this time, he didn't expect that the militia's combat effectiveness was so unbearable, usually he talked to these militiamen about the war, what tactics, weapons, equipment, even more sophisticated than him, a veteran who had been in the US army for many years, but at this time, these militiamen who fled in the desert made him stunned at this time. He originally planned to let the first-line people support it for ten minutes and then push it to the second-line. Zeng Zhigang jumped out of the trench and caught up with several fleeing militiamen, and drove them into the second line of trenches with punches and kicks. "Run, run, run! Where can you flee to? If we lose this lumber mill, we won't even be able to build a house in the future! If you lose, you will be castrated as a eunuch! Do you want three wives and four concubines? ”
The fleeing militia had no weapons in their hands at this time, so they had to crouch in the trenches with their bare hands, looking around nervously. When the three members of the military group withdrew to the second line of defense, the second salvo of bows and arrows also began, this time because the crossing crowd was huddled in the trenches and did not move, the casualties obviously increased, some were shot in the arms, some were shot in the legs and feet, fortunately everyone was forced to wear a stab-proof suit and a steel helmet before the battle, otherwise the casualties would have been more considerable.
Wang Yizhi was preparing to bandage the wounded in the timber mill with people at this time, but when he saw three or four militiamen running all the way down from the front, still shouting "run and run", he couldn't help but be stunned, and hurriedly looked at Xue Ziliang on the commanding heights. Xue Ziliang was next to an M240 machine gun firing team, the bullet box next to him had been opened, the bullet chain had been loaded into the magazine, and he was waiting for the firing instructions. Xue Ziliang heard the movement below, and hurriedly called the camp with a walkie-talkie, asking them to stop these militiamen who were running around and screaming and had collapsed, so as not to let them disturb the overall defense.
"Head, we're not going to shoot yet?" Cheng Jun, who was operating the machine gun, was a little impatient, he was not a veteran, and he worked in the Planning Commission, but his talent in shooting was discovered by the military group during several shooting trainings, and he was soon assigned to the machine gun group as the main shooter. The first-line trenches below were empty at this time, and the fleeing militia disrupted the defense of the second and third lines, and the village courage used like a tide made him more and more nervous, as if he saw the Zerg launch an attack in "Star Troopers".
Xue Ziliang nervously smashed two punches on the earthen platform at the commanding heights, and replied categorically: "No! We can't shoot yet, and now we will expose our firepower in advance, and these bandits will not dare to continue the attack. Your machine gun is the center of your defense, and if you shoot, everyone will revolve around you. You can't fire yet! ”
