Chapter 256: The End of the Cossack Cavalry
When the trumpet of war sounded, there was no one who could stop the war, and the moment Tsarist Russia decided to invade the Chinese Empire, it was doomed to their fate.
The tank cluster that received the order to advance, hundreds of tanks stood in a row horizontally, giving people the momentum of a great wall of steel, and the roar of the engine shook the sky, like a howl of a beast, and the distance between each tank was controlled at about one meter.
And in this one-meter gap, there are two more infantry soldiers sitting across the tank body, one holding a machine gun in his hand, and the other soldier carrying thousands of bullets.
Ordering soldiers to sit on tank bodies instead of walking on land is to reduce the soldiers' fear of bloody scenes, at least to prevent blood on their feet, and to protect their hearts to the greatest extent. And the most cruel thing is that the infantry who need to advance later, they will trample on pieces of flesh and blood, advance to Shenyang City, and fight the final decisive battle with the Russian army still entrenched in Shenyang City, so as to fight for the ownership of Shenyang City!
And the ultimate purpose of this order is to make it clear to Tsarist Russia, and indeed to the whole world, that offending the Chinese Empire is not a good choice. The Chinese Iron Army, the Iron Lion, where you step on, there is no grass!
'Bang! A dull sound was heard from behind, followed by a roar in the air, which was the alarm sound produced by the flare as it swept through the air, and this kind of flare is usually used in battle.
The signal flares and the Iron Lion advances! This was a predetermined plan and method of communication, and when there was no car phone, the simplest method of giving orders could only be used.
Li Zhiyi sat in the inside of the tank sweating, the temperature here was not very high, and even Li Zhiyi felt a little cold, Rao was so, Li Zhiyi's head was still sweating. This kind of big scene is not something that everyone has the opportunity to experience, and of course, not everyone is willing to experience it.
No one wants to suddenly become a murderous demon and a corpse-addicted Shura from a five-good boy. But he is a soldier, a soldier takes obedience to orders as his duty, since the order has been issued above, then he has no choice, since he has chosen to join the army to serve the country, then he should unreservedly dedicate all his own, including body and soul, to this country, the country he loves deeply, and the country built by himself.
"Forward!" Li Zhiyi shook his head vigorously, trying to make himself more sober as much as possible, the division commander was behind him, he was looking at himself, and he was the commander of the entire army, the whole army needed to be commanded by himself, others could mess up, but Li Zhiyi couldn't.
This mission can be said to be the least dangerous task, but it is the most difficult task for Li Zhiyi to complete. When Li Zhiyi shouted the word forward, he suddenly felt like a relieved ball, and suddenly withered, more like a puddle of meat.
When giving an order to move forward, not everyone has the courage to shout it, let alone everyone has the courage to give such an order. Massacre, torture of corpses, whenever he thinks of or fantasizes about these scenes, Li Zhiyi will feel bursts of coldness coming over him, as if he wants to force him to breathe.
'Boom! Li Zhiyi's tank suddenly aimed at a place in front of it, and pushed a 37mm shell out with all its might, and the shell carried the sound of tearing the air, drawing a bright fire in the air along the trajectory of the ballistic. Even though it was daytime, Li Zhiyi felt that this was the brightest fire he had ever seen.
'Boom! The 37-millimeter shells fired in parallel rushed headlong into the Shenyang city wall not far ahead, without accident, and an explosion like thunder rang out.
Suddenly, the entire explosion center was kicked up with puffs of smoke, and the earth and stones were smashed by artillery shells, mixed with smoke, surging attacks on every Russian soldier who was still hiding under the city walls. There are even many Russian soldiers, because of carelessness, did not expect the enemy to suddenly attack at this time, and did not wake up from the shock of the Cossack cavalry being massacred, and unfortunately hit.
The Russian soldiers who were defending on the city wall were even more distracted by this shell that was not too powerful, and at the moment of the explosion, their first reaction was to throw away the rifle in their hands, cover their heads, and squat on the ground, for fear that they would be hit by some unknown object.
Li Zhiyi clearly saw the scene that had just happened in his eyes through the observation hole, and a burst of unbearability rose in his heart. But in the end, he was defeated by the honor of his own soldier, even if he couldn't bear it? The enemy is still the enemy, and if you can be soft-hearted and sympathetic to the enemy, the enemy may not be able to be soft-hearted and let the innocent people go.
More than 100 tanks gradually started to move forward, and the sound of broken bones resounded throughout the battlefield, and there were bursts of wailing and howling, as if they were screaming like unjust ghosts. Crying in pain, cries of despair, crying of helplessness, for a while, all kinds of voices spread throughout the battlefield.
The Cossack cavalry, who were not yet dead, seemed unwilling to be crushed into meatloaf like this, crazy and desperate, and held up their chests with even greater difficulty, the war horse had fallen, and the legs had replaced the function of the war horse. His legs were no longer able to support the running of his whole body, so he squatted on the ground, holding the Cossack cavalry knife high in his hand, waiting for the arrival of the enemy to deliver the final blow.
The glory of the Cossack cavalry is not so easy to be covered up, nor is it so easy to be scattered, even if it is inevitable that the whole army will be wiped out, and it is inevitable that the people will die and be scattered, the Cossack cavalry still put on their posture of winning a hundred battles and being invincible, holding up their proud chests and raising their proud heads. Even if you die, you have to die with dignity, and even if you die, you have to try to pull away a cushion.
'Pass! Open! Open! The fire dragon on the rabbit tank gradually launched its characteristic howl, like the sickle of death, cutting wheat, quickly and neatly, the Cossack cavalry that was still erect, after suffering the second fire blow, fell one by one, the Cossack cavalry, which was already not very large, after the second fire strike, the people who were still alive were even more rare.
Due to the limitation of line of sight, the machine guns equipped in the rabbit tank cannot strike at the enemy in some blind spots, and although they cannot change the enemy's mortal fate, they can do their best to finish off the enemy and make the enemy suffer as little pain as possible. In the same way, you can also make yourself listen to less of that kind of painful wail, and make your heart feel a little better.
The blind spots that cannot be hit by the machine gun equipped with the inside of the tank are naturally solved by the machine gun located above the tank body. Machine guns rang out one after another, and tongues of fire pierced through the entire battlefield, hundreds of tongues of fire were woven together to form a beautiful scene, but at this time, no one had the heart to appreciate these scenes.
Not only the Cossack cavalrymen who were about to die felt a little uncomfortable and painful, but the Chinese emperors who were responsible for solving them were also uncomfortable. This battle was the most difficult and unforgettable battle they had ever fought.
The tanks marched forward without hindrance, and where the tanks passed, two deep marks were left behind them, and the tracks were stained with blood and broken flesh, and the smell of blood in the air suddenly became more ferocious. The soldiers above the tank had even begun to be a little unable to withstand the smell of blood.
Even if they are murderers, even if they are professional soldiers who are accustomed to seeing bloody scenes, they cannot avoid the attack of this strong smell of blood, mental pressure, and physical reactions, and one soldier begins to vomit to varying degrees. The Russian infantrymen on the opposite side were stunned for a moment, and there was a lot of abuse.
Immediately, one soldier began to subconsciously take out the gas masks that had been specially issued to them before, because there was an air filtering device in them, so after wearing the gas masks, the soldiers' vomiting was significantly reduced. Previously, they deliberately did not choose to wear gas masks just to challenge themselves, but also for the dignity of the army.
But when they really joined in this inhumane massacre, they gradually realized that they still underestimated this massacre and overestimated their own abilities. More and more people are wearing gas masks, and without the interference of outside smells, the marksmanship of these Wehrmacht soldiers seems to be much more accurate, even on tanks, when they are shaking, they can quickly hit the enemy's body.
Long Yuhui just stood behind a viewing point, holding a telescope and staring blankly at the situation ahead, bloody, really bloody. The current situation is much bloodier than when Long Yuhui was in South Africa, even if Long Yuhui once took a bath in blood water, he will feel a little disgusting after encountering this situation.
The smell of blood, burnt, gunpowder, all kinds of smells are mixed together, there is a hodgepodge of feelings, this smell is a little unbearable even for Long Yuhui, who has been devastated by the war, not to mention those soldiers who are not as good as Long Yuhui. Long Yuhui frowned, and muttered in a low voice, "Is there something missing?" ”
Immediately, Long Yuhui's eyes lit up, and he suddenly thought of a way to reduce the smell of soldiers to the soldiers, although it could not guarantee that it could completely isolate this smell, but it could minimize the concentration of the smell in the nose.
"Order the soldiers, dip towels and masks in water, put them on their faces, cover their noses and mouths, and prepare to attack!"
