Chapter 29: Battlefield Jungle (5)
After searching for no results all night, Hasegawa Kiyoshi couldn't help but be furious, urgently mobilized ammunition and reinforcements, and personally went to the front line to command, preparing to annihilate the Yanlong defenders on the southern front in one fell swoop, thinking that his misfortune would be justified.
At 8 o'clock on the morning of the 9th, after the Rotten Snake Army violently shelled the Gongda Yarn Mill, a squadron of the Marine Corps, under the cover of five armored vehicles, launched a group charge. Although the special operations brigade has been evacuated, the trap mechanism set up has not been dismantled, and it still plays a huge role.
The more than 200 marines were like going into hell, and if they were not careful, they would fall into a trap or touch a trap, and in a short time, a third of them would be killed or wounded, and they had to retreat to their positions on the southern front in disgrace.
"Bagayalu, the cunning Yanlong people are too hateful, don't let me catch you. Captain Shiga Masanari immediately notified the fleet of artillery support to cover the bombardment of the Gongdai yarn mill. ”
Hasegawa Kiyoshi was furious at the casualties of his men, and in order to get revenge as soon as possible, he spared no expense by asking for artillery fire to cover the Gongdai Yarn Mill in order to destroy the traps and traps. This move really worked, a large number of traps and traps were destroyed, and more than 500 marines, under the cover of 5 tanks, charged in a group, and captured the unmanned factory area.
"Your Excellency Commander, there is no trace of the Yanlong defenders in the Gongda Yarn Factory, and they may have withdrawn to the northern outskirts of the factory, where there are earthen fortifications."
"Bagaya Road, the cunning Yanlong Pig actually set his defenses outside the range of the ship's guns, and they are all dead! Ordered the field artillery troops to move forward immediately to build artillery positions, and told the warriors to use the Imperial cannonballs to tear the Yanlong defenders to pieces! ”
"Hey!"
With Hasegawa Kiyoshi's order, the Rotten Snake Field Artillery Force quickly moved forward to build a position, and soon after all the artillery fired in unison, blowing up billowing gunpowder smoke on the earthen fort position. These are all 150mm heavy artillery, the lethality is extremely amazing, although Liu Yi ordered people to build a large number of effective anti-artillery fortifications, but there are still dozens of people who were shattered and died.
The Rotten Snake Army was well-trained and skillfully coordinated with its artillery footsteps, and when the shelling stopped, the Marines attacked the anti-tank trench and were setting up ladders to prepare for the assault.
At this time, the defensive position was the third battalion of the fourth regiment of the tax police, and the battalion commander Liu Jinpeng was also a veteran general who had been on the battlefield for a long time. Moreover, the earthen fortification position was built by Liu Yi and Jia Xu according to the tactics of ancient rolling stone building blocks. The earthen rampart is of the slope type, and all kinds of fortifications are complete on it, and various barrels are collected as rolling stones, which are enough for the rotten snake army to drink a pot.
"Company Commander Ning, immediately prepare a gasoline barrel, and when the snake cub comes, he will light the gasoline barrel and push it down, and burn these dogs, the sun, and the hell."
"Yingzuo, don't worry, the lowly post has long been prepared!"
Ning Yuanhang, the commander of the third battalion and the first company, is only 23 years old this year, tall, white, and very handsome. He had already ordered the officers and men of the company to prepare all kinds of barrels of gasoline and wait quietly for the enemy to cross the tank trench and prepare to give them the first gift of death.
In view of the fact that the anti-tank trenches dug by the Iron Brigade were too deep and wide, Minoru Katsuno decided to use wooden ladders to build bridges to cross them, in order to break through the earthen fortification position as soon as possible. It has to be said that the individual equipment of the Rotten Snake Army is very comprehensive, and it is easy to build wooden bridges with wooden ladders, and five pontoon bridges have been built from time to time, and more than 400 marines have crossed the bridge in five ways, and the action is so fast that it is breathtaking.
"Put gasoline barrels on the pontoon of the snake cub, quick!"
"Yes! Brethren, light the fire, put it! ”
As soon as Liu and Ning's orders were issued, the five gasoline barrels were like thunder, and they unceremoniously ran over the enemy troops blocking the road, and after rushing onto the wooden bridge, an explosion broke out, and all the marines on the bridge fell into the anti-tank trench. The dense sharp wooden stakes at the bottom of the trench exerted a huge lethality, and the Rotten Snake Army roared earth-shattering for a while, accompanied by bursts of meat fragrance wafting everywhere.
Minoru Katsuno witnessed the death of more than 100 people in Huangquan in an instant, and couldn't help but be furious: "Bagaya Road, ask for artillery support, and blow up this group of Yanlong pigs."
"Hey!"
The rotten snake field artillery once again roared, the fierce artillery fire ravaged and ravaged the earthen fortification positions, the explosion of gunpowder smoke and gas waves raged, the breath of death enveloped the officers and men of the second company, the dirt was splashed everywhere, and several layers of earthen fortresses were removed.
The artillery fire stopped, and the Rotten Snake Army had already built ten pontoon bridges, and took advantage of the smoke of gunpowder to quickly cross the anti-tank trenches, form a straddle formation, and attack the officers and men of the iron-blooded brigade on the slope.
"Brothers, light all the gasoline drums and push them down side by side, so that the snake cubs can understand what is inevitable!"
Ning Yuanhang roared when he saw this, and the officers and soldiers of a company quickly lifted the gasoline barrels out of the fortifications, lined up in front of the formation, and quickly pushed them down after igniting them, and the gasoline barrels formed a moving wall of fire, angrily crushing the devils.
"Retreat, retreat quickly, ah, despicable Yanlong Pig, I will tear you to shreds to comfort the heroic souls of the Imperial warriors!"
Katsuno's face changed dramatically, such a dense gasoline barrel would kill all the soldiers who had crossed the bridge, he tried his best to mourn, but unfortunately it was too late, more than 200 marines were quickly set on fire, and the violent impact forced them into a deep trench. Even if you don't get stabbed to death by a sharp stake, you will be burned by the wood ignited by the gasoline drums, and the smell of flesh will be enticing for ten miles.
"Clean up, quietly withdraw from the position, it is estimated that the snake cub is about to launch a burning bomb."
Ning Yuanhang was indeed extraordinary, leading his troops to quickly tidy up the battlefield, carrying the bodies of his comrades, and quietly withdrawing from the position, and more than 30 soldiers were martyred in this battle.
The Rotten Snake Marines suffered heavier casualties, and at this time Katsuno Minoru had less than 100 men in his hands and could no longer organize an effective attack, so he had to ask Hasegawa Kiyoshi for help.
"Your Excellency Commander, the Yanlong Army's earthen fortification position is very powerful, our troops have suffered heavy casualties, and we are no longer able to attack again, please send troops to support."
"Bagaya Road, the Yanlong Army is cunning and cunning, and they are all dead. Minoru Katsuno, the warriors of the empire should be ashamed and brave, polish your saber, and after the artillery fire has flattened the earthen ramparts, use the saber of the empire to cut off their heads, and take revenge on the warriors who broke the jade! ”
"Hey! Thank you for your kindness, Your Excellency, the humiliation will be washed away with the blood of Yanlong! ”
"Yo Xi, order the field artillery troops, full-coverage artillery bombardment of the earthen fortification position, I want to make the rats hiding in the ground mature meat. Senior Captain Shiga Masanari, organize the troops to fill in the anti-tank trenches as soon as possible, and at least let three tanks drive side by side"
"Your Excellency, there is not much earth and rock available here, and it may be difficult to fill the trench in a short time, please think twice!"
"Baga, aren't the houses of the Yanlong people made of earth and stone? Go for it, stupid thing! ”
"Hey."
Hasegawa Kiyoshi, who became a eunuch and eunuch, was even more vicious, and in order to conquer the earthen fortress position as soon as possible, he even ordered his subordinates to forcibly demolish houses and fill anti-tank trenches, which caused many tragedies.
