Chapter 15: Nameless Hills
As the commander of the regiment, Giselle is still a special boat, although Giselle did not share the weal and woe with his men, but at least he was the first soldier.
More than 500 government soldiers of a battalion rushed to the Hota River, threw the wood on their shoulders into the Hota River, and then began to swim in arms in groups of two.
When the government troops swam to the middle of the river in a messy manner, suddenly a shell exploded around these soldiers who swam crossing, because the 88 guns are now direct fire, there is no need to locate at all, but direct shooting, the German 88 shells accurately hit the side of the government soldiers swimming crossing, the violent explosion brought up a column of water that soared into the sky, and the shrapnel fired mercilessly harvested the lives of the government soldiers.
At this time, the 88 gun fully demonstrated its rate of fire advantage, with a rate of fire of 15 to 20 rounds per minute, the violent explosion exploded unscrupulously in the middle of the Hota River, and the lives of the armed government soldiers who swam across the river were also wantonly harvested, and the government soldiers who did not die hurriedly swam back in despair, and the 88 guns could adjust the firing angle while firing, and the shells seemed to have eyes, firing fiercely at those groups of government soldiers.
Fortunately, the soldiers of the government army were not very well organized and disciplined, and the crossing of the river was a bit messy, and the soldiers were not very concentrated, so they escaped being all killed, and Giselle's boat was also overturned in the shelling, but fortunately, Giselle had a good water nature, and after falling into the water, he swam downstream, which allowed him to pick up a life, but his soldiers paid a heavy price because of his stupidity.
In order to save ammunition, Li Mo ordered to stop shooting after three or four minutes of 88 artillery shooting, and the precious 88 artillery shells were used to hunt and kill those government soldiers, which was really too wasteful, and then Li Mo could only rely on the ammunition support accumulated in the early stage, and the 88 artillery shells were only more than 1,000 rounds in total, Li Mo did not dare to use them indiscriminately no matter what, and now let the government army understand that the German army has the final say within a radius of 10,000 meters of the Blue Bridge.
Even after three or four minutes of fierce shooting, a battalion of government soldiers suffered heavy casualties, almost two hundred government soldiers died in the Hota River, their blood in the Hota River burst out of the blood, but soon disappeared with the flow of the river, and even the bodies of those dead soldiers quickly sank to the bottom of the river, and then were carried away by the current, and only after these corpses fermented will they float.
Giselle returned to the headquarters of the capital division with a fart, if the division commander Felisa hadn't seen that Giselle was his old subordinate, he almost shot Giselle directly to the bastard, and he forgot to explain a word, this bastard actually chose to cross the river by the Blue Bridge, the Blue Bridge had just been shelled by the Germans on the opposite bank, didn't Giselle, a fool, know that the Blue Bridge was in the range of the German artillery on the opposite bank?
Feliza was so angry with Giselle that he was ordered to cross the river at once with his entire regiment of troops ten miles downstream.
Giselle picked up a dog's life, hurried back to his troops, and then rushed to the lower reaches of the Hota River.
Li Mo saw clearly the movements of the government troops on the other side of the river in the binoculars, but Li Mo Li Mo did not have any extra troops to block the government army from crossing the river, so he could only be nailed to the nameless hills, so that the enemy had no way to repair the Blue Bridge, if the government army wanted to let their tanks cross the river, they would definitely set up a large pontoon bridge, and this task could only be handed over to the air force of the Condor Legion.
Thinking of this, Li Mo hurriedly grabbed the radio intercom, and began to call the headquarters of the Condor Legion: "Headquarters, I am a bobcat, please answer when you hear it." ”
"Lynx"
It was the code name of Li Mo's defensive force, which was drawn up at the time of departure.
"I'm headquarters, please."
"There is an enemy with a tank division on the other side of the Blue Bridge, and the enemy's tanks will definitely build a large pontoon bridge if they want to cross the river, so the Air Force must be asked to send reconnaissance planes to search for the enemy's pontoon bridge along the Hota River, and it must be guaranteed 24 hours a day."
"Understood."
Li Mo now needs the air force to search for the government pontoon bridge after the request is issued, a lot of relief, the rigor of the German army is beyond doubt, if the government army really secretly built a large pontoon bridge, and drove countless tanks under the city of Brunnet, the Condor Legion will definitely be erected on both sides, you must know that the Condor Legion is only more than 10,000 people, and the tank has only one regiment, and the performance of the tank does not have much advantage, compared with the No. 2 tank and the T28, but the T28 can resist a little more than the No. 2 tank, It's just that Lao Maozi's tank has more problems.
As for the Condor Regiment of the Air Force, there is only one flying regiment, and no matter how few planes of the Spanish government army are, it is impossible to have only one regiment of aircraft!
If it is consumed, the air force of the Condor will definitely not be able to consume the government army, and the Condor Legion can only ensure the safety of the airspace of its position in a short time.
Therefore, it is impossible for Major General Spehler not to pay attention to this heavy army group of government troops, 30 kilometers from the Brunet Bridge to the city of Brunet is a flat river, which is an excellent venue for tank battles, and the Condor Legion that is attacked from both sides is inferior in terms of numbers and equipment, but the current situation is that the troops of the Condor Legion have rushed into the city of Brunet, and in the bloody battle with the international column in the city, Franco's order is also to let all the troops participating in the siege of Brunet be shot if they retreat without the order to retreat, The commander of the Condor Legion though will not be shot by Franco.
But the honor of the military also gave Major General Speer the order to retreat.
Spehler received Li Mo's request from his headquarters, and after a little thought, he agreed to Li Mo's request, and a special flight group of forty planes fully supported Li Mo, and at the same time sent his own guard battalion to the road to build a relatively complete ring fortification, and his own headquarters was also located there, if the government army really killed Brunette on a large scale, Major General Spehler planned to live and die with the position here, and then win time for his vulture army to retreat, Spehler had already made the worst plan, Even if you die, you have to block the government army for a moment or three.
On the afternoon of March 15, when Vincent reported to Li Mo, Li Mo was taking a nap, and the situation had developed into the current dangerous situation, Li Mo was not nervous, stretched out his head and shrunk his head, it was better to be brave, be single, Li Mo's thinking is a typical Chinese thinking -- death must pull a cushion.
"Platoon commander, the enemy is coming, there are a lot of them!!"
"What's the panic! The soldiers are coming, the water is coming, you go back to your combat post first! ”
Vincent originally came to Li Mo to ask for ideas, but Li Mo asked him to go back to his post, but Vincent couldn't help but ask again
