Chapter 6: Bloody Opérez (6) The result is not perfect

Thank you for the sorrow of Chenguang for the support of two monthly passes.

……

For Zhang Shixin, the killing of civilians still has a considerable sense of sin. It's just that, maybe it's because he's been through a lot, maybe it's because he has a backup move, maybe it's because he knows that it's not his fault, so he feels that he doesn't have much uneasiness about the order he just given.

Zhang Shixin, who took a deep breath, was now waiting for the moment when the enemy army arrived.

Zhang Shixin's operation this time, compared with before, there is a relatively big change, that is, Zhang Shixin has left a certain number of troops as a reserve.

If there are too many people, the tactics of swarming will cause some problems.

Let's not talk about whether there will be a considerable degree of waste of firepower, just the width of the battlefield makes Zhang Shixin have to think about it in detail.

The width of the battlefield refers to the tactical plane on which the front of the battlefield allows how many troops to be put into play at the same time to exert their combat strength.

Theoretically, the more data on the width of the battlefield, the more troops can be put into it at the same time.

Of course, the actual width of the battlefield is not so simple.

For example, it is impossible to put 60,000 people into battle on the front of a battlefield, but at the same time put 120,000 people into battle.

Therefore, battlefield width is more of a vague concept than an operational indicator.

But the battlefield width is not completely meaningless, for example, if the battlefield width is assessed at six, but you are actually only sending a small number of troops into the battle, you will be extremely passive.

Therefore, Zhang Shixin assessed the situation and adjusted the battlefield width forecast to 2, that is, in the combat area, about 20,000 troops were placed for defensive operations.

Others have become reserve beings.

Although it is said that the 20,000-strong army can only be regarded as a force that can slightly affect the direction of the battle in this battle of annihilation. But in this battle, Zhang Shixin thought that these horses were more than enough to resist the opponent's attack.

Zhang Shixin bet that the aristocratic private army he faced would not come out of the nest and bring him to the death in this plain.

After all, if there is a strong defensive area and do not use it to fight a field battle with him, Zhang Shixin does not think that these big nobles will make such a stupid decision.

In fact, what Zhang Shixin thought coincided with the battle that took place afterwards.

Behind a group of refugees with no end in sight, followed by more than a hundred tanks and a considerable number of armored vehicles, it shows that the other party just wants to use the breakthrough ability of the armored forces to destroy Zhang Shixin's troop formation and eliminate Zhang Shixin's considerable combat strength.

Zhang Shixin thought of this situation, and after making a response plan, Zhang Shixin has done everything he can.

A large number of artillery pieces were converging from other areas near the first line of defense at this time.

The first line of defense is a large number of heavy tanks as the main defensive force. Although the defense capability of the KV-1S is much worse than that of the IS-3, don't forget that the defense capability of the KV-1S is also quite good.

At the same time, a large number of armored vehicles equipped with improved machine gun architecture are also carrying out fixed-point defense or from other areas, carrying a large number of soldiers, following other armored units for defense.

In fact, the improvement of these armored vehicles was not too great, except that on the base of the machine gun / cannon, a circle seat was added that could move horizontally almost in all directions.

Although this does not guarantee a 360-degree shooting without moving the cradle, it is a considerable improvement over the previous design that could only shoot at a certain angle directly in front of you.

Zhang Shixin adopted such a design, also because the turret of the IS-3 actually changed the self-loading design, and then added a movable machine gun ring seat behind the top cover of the turret.

Zhang Shixin's transformation does not involve changes in the hull, and adding a weapon ring seat to the top cover of the turret is not a big problem.

Although it is said that the use of large chain boxes will be a little inconvenient for the shooter when firing from the back, such a design will undoubtedly increase the anti-infantry capabilities of armored vehicles and tanks a lot.

In fact, according to some Summoned Men with welded rings, the turret's machinegun/cannon mount does not need to be pulled to the back, even if it is for fear of affecting the periscope view, simply moving the opponent to the side can offset this problem.

Zhang Shixin did this, mainly according to the armored vehicles and tank destroyers in his army, and when he put a certain hull angle for defensive operations, those machine guns/cannons often lost their actual angles.

Although machine gun shooters are a very dangerous profession, they should never be allowed to lie on top armor plates to shoot at targets.

Let's not talk about the question of whether it is smooth or not, just because it has increased a lot of danger, Zhang Shixin vetoed such a combat method.

Paying a small price and achieving a lot of improvements, Zhang Shixin certainly gave a positive answer to such a calculation question.

……

Next, Zhang Shixin also rearranged some local recruited snipers.

The weapon they used was not a Barrett M78 or an AK-74 assault rifle, but a GW43 semi-automatic sniper rifle that Zhang Shixin had almost forgotten.

Under these circumstances, the formation of such a force alone takes into account the number of civilian casualties.

The M78 is a little too powerful, and it is obviously not suitable for suppressing the enemy forces mixed in the crowd.

Because this thing hits the human body, within a thousand meters, it is not a big problem to penetrate three or four people.

It's not that the AK-74 can't be equipped with Zeiss scopes, but the stability of the assault rifle is not very good, so it was also vetoed by Zhang Shixin.

As an "antique", gwww.xstxt.orgm's anti-materiel rifle is much more generous.

……

The rest of the troops were ready to attack. At the same time, summoners in groups of three and two, carrying their own weapons on their backs, led by a black-and-white camera.

The other man carefully took a large bundle of twigs and other things, put them on tape, and pasted them on their bodies.

"Just stay out of the way!" Said the summoner with the camera in hand.

……………………………………………… Dividing Line................................................

What should have come is still coming.

Whether it was Zhang Shixin or Fei Lei, seeing that those civilians were constantly rushing towards them, Zhang Shixin couldn't help but subconsciously clench his fists.

"There are too many people!" Zhang Shixin watched the hundreds of thousands of civilians in this satellite city gradually appear in front of him like a tide, and he could only make such a judgment.

With this amount, if the other party rushes over, Zhang Shixin will definitely not be beneficial.

This truth, Zhang Shixin should be very clear.

Not only him, but anyone who has been on the battlefield knows that no formation can withstand such an impact.

Not even a little more troops.

Zhang Shixin clenched his fists tightly and said to Grelian: "Let people take a loudspeaker to advise those people and let them go around as much as possible!" Otherwise...... I'm going to attack them indiscriminately!! ”

When Grelian heard Zhang Shixin's words, she was slightly stunned, she subconsciously raised her head and found that Zhang Shixin was looking at the periscope through gritted teeth.

She had to sigh, and her heart was also full of bitterness: "No one wants to give such an order, but in this situation, he ...... Nor is it the same as having no choice? ”

As a soldier and a general, Grelian also knew very well that if the defensive front was broken, it would be unimaginable for the attacking troops to be a big threat and fate.

Although she did not agree to convey such an order, Zhang Shixin did not do anything wrong.

"Orders to the troops! Summons to all troops! If the advice is ineffective, you can attack indiscriminately! Repeat!!! If counsel is ineffective, indiscriminate attacks can be used!! ”

……

After hearing this order, Firay, who was in the command car, glanced at the subordinate officers who were a little incredulous, and after a deep sigh, said to the officers: "Let the troops act according to the boss's orders!" ”

"Commander! Boss's order, isn't it ......" An officer hesitated for a moment before saying such an idea.

"Of course I know that there is a problem with the boss's order. However, don't you know the previous scenario, if there was a better way, the boss would still do it? Firay shook his head, a hint of unbearability in his heart, but his face remained the same.

"We can retreat slowly!" The officer uttered something that made Firay roll his eyes.

"Back off? You can say it easily, we can outrun each other, but where can we retreat under the pursuit of these coerced civilians? ”

"This ......"

"Don't say it, since we are the boss's subordinates, we must obey the boss's orders." Firay showed a helpless look: "Go down and arrange it." ”

"This ...... Be! Commander! ”

……

The scene that Felley encountered was also played out in Straar and Carter's armored command car. However, after pondering for a while, the two also gave instructions to follow Zhang Shixin's orders.

Of course, Zhang Shixin would not have thought that it was not his subordinates who reacted the most, but Pa Ji.

After Pa Ji in the camp heard Zhang Shixin's order, he couldn't help but rush out to find Zhang Shixin and reason with the other party.

However, Dressy grabbed her.

"What do you want to do?"

"I don't want that pervert to turn into a murderer who doesn't blink."

"Can you change that situation if you go? Padge, the boss doesn't want this either, but he's a commander, and what he can do is not want his subordinates to suffer more casualties! ”

"Brother, why do you have to help him speak?"

"I'm not talking to him, it's the boss, he didn't want to do it in the first place, the boss had to do it."

"Is it impossible to kill those civilians?"

"In a sense, it's true, because the boss is a mercenary leader. Besides, it's not him who is at fault, it's the big nobles! ”

Dress, of course, knew very well what kind of situation it was. He also knew very well that those big nobles did not treat commoners as human beings, but even if his original family wanted to change the situation, it was impossible.

Hundreds of years of deep-rooted roots are not something that can be changed overnight.

He doesn't have this ability, and Zhang Shixin, as an outsider, doesn't have this ability.

Although he was also quite dissatisfied with Zhang Shixin's order, Dresser knew very well that such a combat order was Zhang Shixin's helpless move.

The troops retreated to be able to dodge for a while, but why did Zhang Shixin retreat? At the same time, once Zhang Shixin retreats, the problems that Zhang Shixin will face will be even more severe.

From the interrogation of friendly forces, the infamy of retreating without a fight......

At the same time, he knew one thing quite well, as a member of the "former" Osville Empire's aristocratic class, including Carter and Morfel, the eyes of Osville looked at him and Padge, and there was a little hatred?

……

A private officer was watching from a tank, and because of the distance, he couldn't see what was going on with the untouchables in his eyes.

He's waiting for an opportunity to attack if the opponent's formation is disrupted, or if the situation in front of him gets chaotic.

However, something that this person would never have imagined was that a ...... No, it should be said that almost all of the E-50M, running their engines to maximum power, constantly moved closer to where his troops were located.

At the same time, in a depression a few kilometers away, more than a dozen VI-B-WT vehicles had been loaded with high-explosive shells with a reinforced charge coefficient, and the gunners had also locked the landing circle on them.

What they are waiting for is nothing more than an opportunity......

……………………………………………… Dividing Line................................................

The crowd in front of these civilians was already more than 400 meters east of the first row of machine-gun positions.

The machine gun shooters pulled the bolt one after another, and the machine gun fire safety was lifted, and it entered the point where it was ready to fire.

The commander of an armored personnel carrier lifted the flap on his head, then took out a megaphone and said loudly: "Guys, please go around to both sides, or we will attack indiscriminately!" ”

The crowd seemed to twitch for a moment, but the team continued on its way......

As the crowd advanced some distance, the commander continued to repeat his words......

After approaching about 300 meters in the front row of the crowd, the commander finally uttered a rather classic sentence: "I repeat, you'd better go around somewhere else, or we'll shoot straight away!! ”

The crowd seemed to be tickling bigger, but they kept going.

"......" The commander shook his head helplessly, then raised his hand and signaled the machine gunner to prepare to shoot!

250 meters, 240 meters, 230 meters, 220 meters, 210 meters, 200 meters......

The commander's hand slammed down......

Suddenly, 100 M2 heavy machine guns on the first row of machine gun positions let out a howl of rage. In a matter of seconds, the members of the Elven Dragon Security Company saw the ragged civilians fall in piles like wheat or weeds harvested by a scythe.

The machine gun stopped after firing for nearly ten seconds, and most of the civilians in the front row were quickly killed by the 12.7mm machine gun bullets, and only a small number of civilians quickly lay on the ground to escape after hearing the dense gunfire.

Although there are still some injured and not dead, 12.7mm machine gun shells, which have a maximum damage capacity of 270 meters, can often cause a person to be disabled.

A bullet of this caliber, as long as it hits the body exactly, then a crippled person can be regarded as a minor injury.

The commander raised the megaphone again, and then said: "I warn you again, don't go any further, you'd better bypass our positions, or your partners in front of you will be an example!" ”

The commander glanced at the pile of corpses with an average length of about 60 meters, and couldn't help but sigh at the personnel cleaning ability of the M2 heavy machine gun formation. He was waiting for those people to act......

……

At the same time, the private officer heard the twitching at the front of the group, and was overjoyed, and was about to take advantage of the chaos to launch a surprise attack, when he was attacked by shells falling from the sky.

Before he could react to where these shells were fired, he was stunned by the second wave of shelling: "Is there such a fast rate of shelling? ”

For other artillery and other self-propelled guns, it is true that such a quick shelling efficiency cannot be fired.

However, instead of ordinary shelling, he was faced with howitzer shells from vi-b-www.xstxt.orgm, which were not very powerful in themselves, but with the use of high-explosive shells with a strengthened charge coefficient, the power of the 150mm shells was a little better than that of the 170mm shells.

Moreover, the speed at which the 150mm magazine gun fired again was 5 seconds, which was consistent with the speed at which the barrel was stabilized and reset.

That is, after the first shells fell, this group of aristocratic private armoured units suffered more than a hundred shells with a fairly high hit rate.

The private officer had good luck, and both shells aimed at him missed.

Although the high-explosive projectile with the increased charge coefficient is more powerful, it cannot escape the problem of poor accuracy.

The actual accuracy of the shelling close to four kilometers has gone to a radius of almost 30 meters, and it is normal to shoot shells, but if this can be accurately hit, it is no longer the bad luck of the artillery, but the category of the opponent's bad luck.

The private officer also wanted to follow the original plan and order the troops that had not been attacked to launch an offensive.

It's just that a plan arranged by Zhang Shixin has also been launched.

Nearly twenty E-50Ms emerged from a hillside and fired at these armored units at a distance of 1,500 meters.

The E-50M's 105mm tank gun is known as the best "laser cannon" in the game, as long as the circle is completed, at a distance of 600 meters, the 105mm tank gun with quite frightening accuracy is not a problem at all to accurately hit the enemy.

Of course, the distance of 1500m is indeed a bit far, and even a "laser cannon" can't help but have an accuracy error in this long-range shooting.

Sometimes, 20 E-50Ms shelled at the same time, and only a third of them were able to hit the enemy.

The private officer looked at the accurate shooting that he didn't know where it came from, and he was very angry about such a thing, but he couldn't even find the target of the attack, so how could he talk about counterattacking?

In the end, he could only order the troops that were still able to move to retreat quickly.

It's not that he doesn't dare to gamble, but he knows very well that since the other party is prepared, what's the point of him doing it again?

The armored units of the noble private army retreated, and those E-50Ms did not pursue, but "wasted" shells in place for "gifts".

After the enemy disappeared from view, an AMX-13 slowly drove out of a bush one hundred and fifty meters south of the area where the noble private army was staying......

……

The news that the opponent's armored forces had retreated, Zhang Shixin was quite happy after getting this result. He was supposed to fight for a certain number of E-50M losses, and he had to hold back the enemy's armored forces.

Fortunately, the opponent's troops are not very strong in their will to fight, or they are worried about something, otherwise, he would not have cried miserably after losing too much E-50M?

Since the other party has retreated, some things will have to be dealt with.

Some of the things Zhang Shixin said are that I am afraid that the civilian team has become more and more chaotic.

……………………………………………… Dividing Line................................................

170,000 civilians, oh no, it should be said that in Zhang Shixin's eyes, there is only a large refugee group of about 165,000 people left, and there must be some refugees mixed in with it, and the other party is not moving now, mainly the thousands of civilians who fell in a pool of blood, which shocked them.

Some aristocratic private soldiers naturally want to use these people to create chaos, but they may not think that Zhang Shixin doesn't mind killing more people, so it will be more effective for Zhang Shixin.

At the same time, even if the aristocratic private soldiers mixed with the commoners, even if they really created irreparable chaos, Zhang Shixin was confident that even if there was no tank force, just defeating the machine guns could kill most of them within a few hours.

Zhang Shixin is not a cold-blooded person, but for the existence that can threaten him, Zhang Shixin also has no idea of mercy.

After the situation was largely under Zhang Shixin's control, Zhang Shixin sent more than 100 armored vehicles carrying a large amount of food, drinking water and snipers to surround the 170,000 people.

Among the snipers are summoners who can rely on tactical maps to discern enemies in line of sight.

A certain commander raised the loudspeaker and said, "Guys, you are safe for the time being, we can give you some food, and send someone to escort you to a relatively safe area in the rear to settle down temporarily!" However, you are well aware that some of you have ill intentions lurking! So, we're going to take some action next! Don't panic too much! But if there is a large-scale chaos, we will use force to suppress it! I hope you can stabilize yourself or the people around you as much as possible! ”

The repetition of these words in an armored vehicle that was constantly driving on the periphery of the civilian population made some people's minds panic.

After gesturing to their companions, they raised their weapons......

It's just that Zhang Shixin's summoner sniper is waiting for this opportunity.

The sound of the GW43 semi-automatic rifle firing caused a wave of twitching, but in order to save their lives, many people used various means to control the people they knew or did not know.

Because they don't want to die yet, especially on the eve of being freed from suffering......

……………………………………………… Dividing Line................................................

Zhang Shixin arranged for Carter to lead the J.A.M. to escort and monitor the civilians to several towns to the west to settle down, and when he was eating in the evening, he found that several of his subordinates were looking at him with a strange gaze.

Zhang Shixin naturally knew what the other party was thinking, but he smiled: "It's a good thing to be able to handle this matter like this." ”

He didn't explain it, not that he didn't trust these people, but that he wasn't sure he could keep things under control.

In case the situation deteriorated, Zhang Shixin would really kill all those civilians and would not order a retreat.

Zhang Shixin glanced at Grelian, who was also a little weird, as well as the two humanoid dragons, and said something that made all three of them roll their eyes:

"I'm good, hello, everyone, that's really good."

Zhang Shixin rarely said a cold joke, but no one cheered......

Well, he wasn't a witty person in the first place......

However, thinking that he was about to attack that satellite city tomorrow, Zhang Shixin was not in such a good mood.

"You're dead." Zhang Shixin's eyes revealed a strong killing intent. (To be continued.) )
