Chapter Seventy-Seven: Chilinkin Suspension for Reflection

At this time, the Einsatzgruppen had not yet reached the entrance of the canyon, and when they were almost at the entrance, Chilinkin observed everything around him with a lookout, and he noticed that the situation around him was not normal, because it was too quiet. As far as he knew, this mountain has no name, and it has always been a barren mountain in the Scorching Sun Federation, but because this mountain has been camped here by many bandits many years ago, it has been called a bandit mountain by the people of the Scorching Sun Federation.

Although Chilinkin knew in his heart that those bandits would never have the courage to dare to use the brains of their special legions, but after all, this was the territory of these bandits, and with so many people from the special legions passing through here, it was impossible for them to make no movement, at least they had to send some people to investigate and check the situation. But things were not what Chirimbin thought, and no one came to inquire about them at all, which aroused Cherimbin's suspicions.

What is it that makes the bandits indifferent? Have they abandoned this bandit mountain in favor of a different mountain? Chirinbin shook his head, it couldn't be, because this bandit mountain was where those bandits had been stationed for generations, how could they give up such a steep mountain and the cottage they had run for generations?

In this way, it is possible that they did not come out to investigate because they did not want to provoke such a powerful army as the Einsatzgruppen Corps, or they had already done so, but they did not let Chirymbin find out. The second may be the biggest, and Chirinbin's heart is a little vigilant, when did these bandits have such a strong anti-reconnaissance ability, and they were able to avoid the eyes of their Baron'o reconnaissance team without letting them find out. But Cherymbin was far from turning this fear into action, for he naively believed that the bandits, even if they had the audacity, would not be bold enough to attack the regular forces of the Balen'ou.

Just half an hour later, Chilimbin's fears became a reality. The men of the Balon'ou Einsatzgruppen had already entered half of the canyon, and there were about three or four thousand troops in the canyon. At this moment, many large rocks suddenly fell from the exit of the canyon, and someone pushed them down from the mountain. Chirinbin immediately sent people to climb the mountain to observe the situation, and all the soldiers in the canyon also raised their guns and fired aimlessly at the hills on both sides. The most important point of fire was the hill where the large boulders had tumbled, and the Barono soldiers were shooting like crazy.

But now the large falling boulders have sealed the exit of the canyon. The only way to proceed was to send someone to clear the stones. At this moment, the soldiers who went to clear the stones and the soldiers who followed them to continue their departure suddenly made a loud noise under their feet, and then with the flight of their bodies, the person lost consciousness forever. This mine exploded, followed by a barrage of bombs and explosives detonated in the canyon. Explosives and bombs have been ignited in places that have been crowded with people before.

The people of the Einsatzgruppen have nothing else to think about now, and there is only one thought left, which is to run for their lives! Now they are like turtles in an urn, unable to resist the enemy's ambush of them. Only by getting out of this canyon quickly can they have a chance of survival. But how could it be so easy for Montali to let them go, and he immediately ordered his officers to immediately let the gunners and heavy machine gunners start firing in the area of the canyon. Everyone else fought against the Barono soldiers who climbed up from the canyon and the Barono soldiers who came to the rescue from outside the canyon.

The attack was later remembered in the historical biography as the "Victory of the Bandit Mountain and Canyon", and it was also a battle in which Montali established himself as a strong member of the Lion King's army. This battle has become a textbook classic, and later soldiers will learn about this classic battle when they study in military schools. This classic battle has also become one of the classic battles in which less wins more, and its military status and military value are immeasurable.

After the high-density covered fire bombardment by artillery and heavy machine guns, the number of Baren'ou soldiers in the gorge was reduced from three or four thousand to more than two thousand. However, these people had found a place where they could hide against artillery and heavy machine guns, so it was no longer very effective to strike them like before. And now the Balon'ou people under the hill have launched fierce attacks on the Montali Iron Tiger Infantry Regiment on the hill again and again, and the soldiers of the Iron Tiger Infantry Regiment have suffered many casualties. Because there were not a few large-caliber howitzers and armored tanks on the Balon'ou side, they also bombarded with heavy weapons first and then sent infantry to charge, which dealt a great blow to the soldiers of the Iron Tiger Infantry Regiment on the hill.

Montali quickly made a decision in his heart, and then instructed the people beside him: "Send someone to bring over the dozens of big boxes that were transported from the Lion King's base before, hurry up!" ”

The soldiers didn't understand why their regimental commander didn't lead his men to retreat in such a situation of disparity between friend and foe, but was still working here. But they didn't dare say anything, but carried boxes of what Muntali had said to the top of the hill, and Muntali ordered them to open the boxes, which contained strange machines that looked like machines that threw something.

Montali had already taught the use of this machine to several officers, and then asked them to pick a few people with good brains to teach. So I sent those people up now, and when they turned on the machine, they took out the shell-like things, lit the fuses on the shells, and threw them out with the bombardier.

When the shells landed on the trees and hills where the Bareno soldiers had taken refuge, they were instantly ignited and glowed with a terrible white light. These shells were high-strength incendiary bombs made by the people who commissioned the arsenal under his guidance, and they could even ignite the soil, so with the unremitting efforts of dozens of bomb throwers, the canyon became a sea of fire.

Seeing that the Balenou in the gorge had little chance of escaping, Montali descended from the southeast side of the mountain with the soldiers of the Iron Tiger Infantry Regiment, and then disappeared into the vast forest on the south side of the Bandit Mountain.

And the people of the Balono Rangers are still busy rescuing those in the canyon, but it is good to be able to rescue one out of ten. Because those incendiary bombs were so powerful, the Balono soldiers in the canyon had no way to retreat, and they could only throw their lives into the canyon.

The Einsatzgruppen Corps was unfavorable, losing several thousand men as soon as they arrived at the Bandit Mountain, which was a particularly heavy blow to them. Where do we go from here? If we continue to march, I don't know what kind of blow we will suffer, but if we withdraw now, I am afraid that not only will Chirimbin not be able to explain to Serif at all, but Shurif will also put Cherimbin in an idle position completely because of this, which Cherimbin does not want to see at all.

Cherinbin instructed the officers below to gather the remaining soldiers quickly, and then send all the wounded back to the garrison of the Balen'o army. He also sent a special person to make a special report to Showive, reporting the main reasons for the defeat and the course of the battle. And they asked Sherif to send them another army of 5,000 men as support, and they needed the Baren'ou army to send a bandit force to wipe out the bandits in the bandit mountain, otherwise these bandits would be a great obstacle to their future march.

However, according to Chirinbin's intuition, those who attacked them were probably not just bandits. Because when bandits attack others, especially if they have the audacity to attack a powerful army, then surely the language has enough interests to support it. But their attackers received nothing but more than 3,000 of them. Moreover, according to Chirinbin's judgment and estimate, there were many dead and wounded among those people, and there were hundreds of corpses left on the hill alone.

So what is the purpose of these people? Cherimbin now wondered if the bandits had been bribed by the Liedong Federation to intercept the wounded Balen'ou army. It's just that he doesn't have conclusive evidence to prove whether these people are bandits, or whether these bandits are in league with the people of the Liedong Federation.

Chilinkin pulled the remaining team of nearly 9,000 soldiers of the Einsatzgruppen to the grassland south of the Bandit Mountain, and directly set up camp, waiting for reinforcements to arrive. His heart was very bitter, knowing that there was an invisible net in front of him, and he was the bird waiting to be caught. Whether the net can catch the bird or the bird can break the net depends on the strength of each party.

Reinforcements soon arrived, but not in the five thousand that Cherymbin had requested, but in an army of only three thousand. However, it was Chirinbin's immediate boss, Helik, the commander of the Black Teng Corps, who led these reinforcements. After hearing that the Einsatzgruppen Corps was unfavorable, Suriv was in a hurry, and directly sent Helik to take over the command of the Einsatzgruppen Corps, and he must let them take the Lion King base!

As soon as Helik arrived at the camp command post of the Einsatzgruppen Corps, he immediately sat down in his position, and his momentum made Chilimbin and the other officers a little intimidating. After all, he is the commander of the Black Teng Corps, and everyone has a very primitive fear of him. Helik looked at the officers of the Einsatzgruppen Corps coldly and did not speak, but his sharp eyes swept around, and the officers did not dare to take a breath.

Helick lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and suddenly said, "Shame! It's a shame! Are your heads caught in the door? actually let a nest of bandits sneak attack, what else to say? Are you embarrassed to let the marshal send troops to you? ”

The series of questions made the officers break out in a cold sweat, they had never seen Helik so angry. Helik used to give the impression of a well-mannered commander, but now there are curses in his words, which is unimaginable to those who know him well. This also shows that his anger has made him lose his temper a little, but there is also a bit of hatred in his words, so the officers, including Chirinbin, know that he has not completely given up on them. Besides, Helik still brought a team of 3,000 men, which was just enough to replenish the loss of the Einsatzgruppen Corps.

"Tell me, what's your plan next? Although I have failed in the past, I still need to complete the next task with determination, so I will listen to your plan first. Helik forced himself to suppress his anger and tried to calm himself.

He was ostensibly asking all the officers, but he was actually asking Chilymbin this question. Qi Linbin naturally knew it in his heart, so he said: "Dashuai, I think we need to be more careful now, so as not to make any more mistakes. So I sent four outpost teams, each with fifty people, mainly to carry out a detailed inspection of the situation ahead, and not to let go of all directions, to investigate the situation ahead. ”

"And we have also formulated a series of measures to prevent detection by the enemy, and it seems that we have done a good job now, I think we need to speed up the march now, set up a military camp directly outside the Lion King base, and then start attacking the fortification. It is said that the Lion King Base is just a small town, and it is impossible for our army of more than 10,000 people not to be able to take it! ”

Helik looked at Cherimbin coldly, and interrupted him when he heard him say this: "Cherinbin, you haven't grown at all over the years!" The most important thing to rely on to fight a war is material supply, then tactics and strategy, and the advanced nature of combat weapons. Do you have anything to do with these factors, do they? ”

Chirinbin completely lowered his head: "Handsome...... No...... But it's not that I didn't calculate what you said, it's just that I want to wait until we actually get to the battlefield to adjust, and we're not busy on the road now......"

"Battlefield?" Seeing that he was still quibbling, Helik suddenly became angry: "You say this is not a battlefield? This is not a battlefield, is it your home! Let me tell you, as long as you leave our Balon's country, there are battlefields everywhere in a foreign land, and you must keep fighting at all times! I've said these things more than once, so why don't you remember them for a long time? The canyon of the Bandit Mountain is not a battlefield either, but you have lost more than 3,000 lives there! More than 3,000 people, more than 3,000 living lives will be buried in your hands! ”

Chirinbin continued: "Dashuai, they were not buried by me, it was all because of the sneak attack of those bandits, if they dared to face us face to face, I would definitely beat them so that they didn't even recognize their own mother." But if they don't fight us, there's nothing I can do......"

Helik was furious: "You are the commander, you don't reconnoiter the surrounding terrain and various conditions and then make judgments and analysis, and you actually complain that others sneak up on you?" Chirinbin, I announce that from now on you will suspend me for reflection, and as for when, I will inform you, you go! (To be continued.) )
