"Minato, when will this Western devil attack, Lao Tzu is impatient." A Han soldier stuck his head out of the trench and looked out, feeling retracted, as if he was afraid that the enemy would shoot cold in the distance.

The terrain of Longtu Mountain is dangerous, the road is narrow, and the guard here is a regiment of the Second Brigade of the Praetorian Guard (Division), as well as an artillery battalion attached to the brigade, totaling more than 1,800 people.

1,500 people say that it is not much, but it is not much, and the terrain of Longtu Mountain can only accommodate one regiment of the Han army, and the 30,000 British troops led by Major General Dennis on the opposite side want to enter Xiqiang from Longtu Mountain, and the British army can only attack one regiment at a time if they want to break through the Han army's defense line guarding Longtu Mountain.

At 8:20, officers at all levels of the Han army issued orders to prepare for battle, and told the Han soldiers to be careful of enemy shelling, and the scouts reported that the British army had set off and was advancing in the direction of the Han army's position.

At 8:45 a.m., the British vanguard regiment was only two kilometers away from the Han army's position, and not far behind the British vanguard regiment was the British artillery unit.

The British artillery halted its advance and looked for an area nearby to build artillery positions.

This time the Han army could not find the enemy's artillery position, could not destroy the enemy's artillery position in advance, high altitude area, the Han army's "eye in the sky" could not rise into the air, the airship can take on this role, but the airship is the secret weapon of the Han army, can not be easily violent. Exposed.

The British vanguard regiment is getting closer and closer to the Han position, and the British artillery position is about to be completed, and all kinds of artillery muzzles have been aimed at the direction of the Han army's position.

Sou! Sou! Sou!

"Enemy shelling!" As soon as a Han officer shouted out his words, dozens of British shells smashed into the Han position.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

The shells exploded, shrapnel scattered in all directions, more than a dozen Han soldiers were killed on the spot, and dozens of Han soldiers were injured.

"Hygienist, come here, someone is hurt."

"Hygienist, his leg was blown off, what should I do?"

"Damn, where's our artillery? Shoot back. ”

More than ten seconds later, the Han artillery had not returned fire, and another round of shells smashed into the Han position, this time the death toll of the Han soldiers was only in single digits, and there were still dozens of wounded.

However, it didn't take long for the Han artillery to become more powerful, and a total of 32 75-mm field guns from the brigade artillery battalion and the regimental artillery company issued their own anger.

The next moment, the British artillery position ushered in the fury of the Han artillery.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

Metal and flesh flew over the British artillery positions, and nearly a hundred British soldiers fell in pools of blood.

"My leg is broken, come and save me."

"Ah, it hurts."

"The enemy has discovered this, quickly pull the artillery away."

British artillery positions were in disarray.

Just when the British soldiers wanted to rescue the wounded or tow away the artillery, in less than ten seconds, another round of shells fell......

Just when the British artillery positions were baptized by the Han army's shells, the British vanguard regiment had already entered the range of Han firepower.

The British Pioneer Regiment is a servant regiment composed of Indian soldiers and British officers, and when the vanguard regiment of more than 1,200 people is about 1,000 meters away from the Han army's position, the Indian soldiers stride towards the Han army's position in a neat phalanx under the command of the British officer.

Zhang Jisheng, the commander of the Han Army, held a sniper rifle and aimed at a British officer in the distance, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

Bang!

Six hundred meters away, a British major with a command knife was shot in the head.

"Fire!"

Da! Da! Da!

The heavy machine gun of the rainstorm spewed out a long fiery snake, and the next moment the Indian soldiers a few hundred meters away fell in rows.

Seeing the Han army exposed, the British officer quickly gave the order: "Shoot!" ”

However, this order came too late, and nearly 30 heavy machine guns in the Han army position opened fire with all their might, and with the rate of fire of the heavy machine guns, the Indian soldiers were swept away by the bullets sprayed by the heavy machine guns before they could aim and shoot.

The Indian soldiers in the rear were frightened to flee when they saw their compatriots in front of them being consumed by the enemy's rapid fire, but the British officer held a pistol in one hand and brandished a command knife in the other, allowing the Indian soldiers to move on.

"Don't stop, go forward, drive..."

Under the deterrence of the British officers, the Indian soldiers could only stubbornly move forward with their rifles, and after a few steps, the Indian soldiers in front were all dead, and now it was their turn, and the red-hot bullets pierced the flesh. In the body, take away the fresh life one by one.

Of course, the British officers who commanded the Indian soldiers could not escape the fate of death.

The Indian soldiers went to their deaths under the orders of the British officers, and all the Indian soldiers who dared to flee fell under the swords or pistols of the British officers, and the British officers did not see whether anyone was dead in the Han positions opposite, but kept watching whether the Indian soldiers obeyed the orders and continued to advance.

However, everything happened too quickly, in just half a minute, with the rate of fire of hundreds of rounds per minute of the heavy machine guns in the rainstorm, each heavy machine gun only fired a 300-round cartridge belt, and most of the soldiers of the British vanguard regiment of more than 1,200 people fell on the battlefield forever.

Lieutenant Colonel Enoch, who was commanding the battle at the rear of the Pioneer Regiment, felt that the situation was not right, and just wanted to give the order to retreat, but the Pioneer Regiment was about to be wiped out.

Bang!

One of the sharpshooters in the Han position killed Lieutenant Colonel Enoch, who had no cover.

The tragic situation of the Pioneer Regiment caused an Indian regiment that followed to immediately stop its advance, and did not dare to continue to move forward, for fear that he would stay on this land forever like the Pioneer Regiment.

Although the Han rifles and heavy machine guns could not hit this Indian regiment, don't forget that the Han army still has artillery, and the 75mm field guns are still destroying the artillery positions of the British army, but the 60mm mortars are not put into the battle just now.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

Dozens of mortar shells fell into the Indian regiment, and a bloody storm arose.

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

This Indian regiment left hundreds of corpses in an area a thousand meters away from the Han army's position, and ran away without looking back.

"Lao Tzu hasn't fought enough, why have all the Western devils run away?" A heavy machine-gun shooter in the Han position grinned and yelled.

"Haha!" But it caused a lot of laughter around him.

British command

"What? Loss of thirty-five guns? How did the Chinese artillery shoot so accurately? Major General Dennis wondered.

At this time, a British officer walked into the command headquarters and said to Major General Dennis: "Your Excellency, Major General, there is an urgent report from the front, the vanguard regiment has been... The whole regiment was destroyed. ”

"The whole group is gone? Lieutenant, within a minute of the exchange of fire at the front, you told me that the Vanguard Regiment had been wiped out? Are you sure you're not kidding me? Hearing this, Major General Dennis' first reaction was that someone was joking with him.

"Your Excellency, Major General, I'm sure."

Bang!

Major General Dennis slammed his fist into the table. (To be continued.) )
