The Russian Cossack cavalry launched several assaults one after another, but they were all hit back by the prepared heavy machine-gun fire, and they could not rush up at all!

"Order, the artillery continues to attack, and the cavalry continues to charge!"

Valerian gritted his teeth, one by one the cavalry died on the battlefield, this is the elite of the empire, it is not easy to train one!

The artillery fire of the Russian army was fierce again, and the bombardment continued to be carried out towards the two positions, and the smoke of gunpowder rose into the sky, and the forward positions of the Chinese People's Army had been bombed all over again, and there were craters from the shells everywhere, and the solid tunnels were also blown to pieces, and there were charred mud everywhere, and as for the sandbags in front, it was impossible to find a few intact ones.

Under the fierce bombardment, the heavy machine gun position suffered more and more losses, after all, under the impact of the cavalry, the heavy machine gun did not dare to retreat into the tunnel again, and could only brave the artillery fire to continue to shoot fiercely, stopping the advance of the cavalry.

The battle lasted until late at night, and the Russian army slowly retreated, and the Russian army not only consumed a large number of shells, but also suffered huge losses along with the cavalry, with more than 1,000 casualties!

Valery's heart was dripping with blood, but even so, Valery had to persevere, because only in this way could the heavy machine gun fire of the Chinese People's Army be severely damaged, and without cavalry in front of the oppression, the Chinese People's Army would not expose all the heavy machine gun fire, only their heavy machine gun fire was exposed, and the artillery would be able to show its most powerful destructive power.

I have to say that although the current method, the losses of the Russian army are also very large, but there is still a certain effect, at the end of the day, the Chinese People's Army has lost a lot of heavy machine gun equipment, even if some can be repaired, but how to repair it that has been blown up into scrap iron?

"Tomorrow, the artillery will continue to attack! Send two more cavalry regiments to take over the offensive mission! ”

Valerian said in a deep voice.

As for the two flank positions of the People's Army, today there is no longer the same relaxed atmosphere as yesterday, whether it is Luo Cheng or Tian Zhenyu, their faces are solemn, today the Russian artillery fire is too fierce, the four artillery regiments, fired more than 40,000 shells at the two positions, the entire position, especially the heavy machine gun position, suffered a huge blow, the fortifications on the position were beaten beyond recognition, and the safety of the soldiers was no longer protected as at the beginning.

In just one day of fighting, the People's Army paid the price of thousands of casualties, after all, it was an attack several times its own firepower, especially the powerful Russian flat artillery attack, which brought a huge threat to the first division, and the heavy machine guns alone lost more than fifty units, and the proportion of casualties among the heavy machine gunners in front was even higher!

If the fighting continues at this intensity, then in five or six days at most, the two positions will completely collapse, and even if the first division can fight again, it will definitely not be able to hold out for too long in the absence of reasonable artillery support.

In five or six days, you must know that the main force of the First Army led by Yan Chunyu is far away in Praston, where there is still a fierce battle, no one knows when it will be over, and no one knows when Yan Chunyu will be able to lead the main force to come back!

However, even if it is difficult, the first division must hold two flank positions, and if the flank positions fall, the first and second divisions will fall into the siege of the opponent, and at that time, the situation will be even more difficult!

"Chief of Staff, why don't we send out cavalry and sneak attack the artillery positions of the Russian army?"

In the rear, Xu Xiangfei, the commander of the Fifth Brigade on the side, said in a deep voice.

He Zheng shook his head and replied: "No, the time is not ripe, the Russian army still has a lot of cavalry strength, we are only a cavalry regiment, if we want to sneak attack the Russian army, it is too difficult, it is not good to be entangled by the Cossack cavalry, we will suffer a big loss, we must weaken the other party's Cossack cavalry to the extreme, before we can send cavalry!" ”

"Then if we have such a hard top, our losses are too serious, and now the heavy machine gun fire can still support the front, if there are two more days of fighting, the heavy machine gun fire losses in our flank positions are too heavy, and the first division will not be able to hold on......"

Xu Xiangfei said astringently.

"Order, pull the entire artillery regiment up, deploy it at a kilometer from the flank position, and tomorrow, if the Russian artillery is still so unscrupulous, then bombard them fiercely! It's a big deal, I'm going to end up together, and I'm fighting with them! ”

He Zheng slammed his hat on the ground, although the artillery of the First Artillery Regiment was huge, it was only able to cover the two real front lines and help stop the offensive of the cavalry, but it could not threaten the positions of the Russian army, the distance was too far, and the artillery firepower of the Russian army was unscrupulous, and the pressure on the first division was too great!

He Zheng said viciously.

The battle on the third day started again at dawn, this time, the Russian army still launched a ferocious artillery bombardment, under the cover of artillery, the cavalry continued to launch a surprise attack, under the containment of the cavalry, the loss of heavy machine gun positions is getting bigger and bigger, not only heavy machine gun positions, but also the casualties of the infantry positions in the rear began to rise in a straight line, after all, a wide range of artillery bombardment, even if it is a trench fortification, it is impossible to withstand it, after all, the trench fortifications, not permanent reinforced concrete fortifications, can not withstand the continuous heavy fire strikes.

When the Russian artillery was wanton, suddenly, the artillery regiment of the first division advanced to the rear of the flank position, and sixty artillery pieces launched a fierce offensive towards the Russian position at the same time, this position is the most uncomfortable position for the Russian artillery, a large number of smoothbore guns of the Russian army cannot hit this place at all, although the rifled run can barely reach it, but the shooting accuracy is much worse, and the Russian army's rifled running equipment is too little, and it is impossible to suppress the artillery fire of the first artillery regiment!

Boom Boom Boom ......

For two consecutive days, the Russian artillery positions had never been attacked, and gradually, they began to carelessly, thinking that there was no artillery on the two flank positions, and the heavy machine gun fire, that is, defensive fire, could not threaten the Russian artillery positions three kilometers away.

This time, all of a sudden, the extremely powerful artillery of the Chinese People's Army began to attack, and a shell fell on the Russian artillery position, and the Russian artillery was stunned when it landed, and the violent explosion caught the Russian artillery off guard, and the casualties were heavy.

"I'm x fucking!"

Valerian was so angry that he scolded, damn the Chinese People's Army, when did it take time to advance their artillery to the rear of the flank positions!
