Chapter 9: The Battle of the Harbor Ends
"Damn!! That bastard missed?! On a balcony, an epaulette indicating that he belonged to an assaulter from the Gultoka Empire formation under the Elven Dragon Security Company looked angrily at the roof twenty meters in front of him to the left, and the roof was punched with a gap, and the flying rubble smashed his cheeks.
"Don't get distracted, the other party is coming, ready to attack!" The captain of the assault team's squad quietly picked up his S-44 assault rifle, stuck his head out and looked into the street, where he saw a large number of infantry under the cover of several heavy tanks and armored vehicles, charging his own battle line.
"Cuomo, prepare the Molotov cocktail! Throw it at the opposing crowd. Herring, throw the RPG-6 at the opponent's tank, throw it accurately, don't get headshot by the opponent! ”
"Captain, what you're talking about is too difficult."
"Staying safe is !!" The captain raised his head, took the S-44 assault rifle in his hand, and aimed at the infantry behind the armored car.
"Da da...... " The bullet casings quickly accompanied by the sound of gunfire, and one by one automatically faded out of the chamber, and then, a few blood flowers appeared on the bodies of several Grunshire infantrymen, and then slowly fell to the ground......
"Hmm......" Captain suddenly felt a tingling pain in his shoulder, and he hurriedly bent down again, looked at his shoulder, and found that his shoulder was grazed by a bullet.
He hurriedly took out a roll of bandages from one of the pockets of his belt, wrapped it around a few times, and then prepared to fight again.
It's just that he was stunned to see a Molotov cocktail and an RPG-6 anti-tank grenade flying from behind in front of him, and when he was a little stunned, he saw a Molotov cocktail with a strip of cloth burning on the mouth of the bottle burst in the crowd, and then the fierce flames quickly swept away several infantry of the Grunshire Empire, and he saw that the flames on these infantry quickly spread to each other's body......
However, he was more concerned that the RPG-6 anti-tank grenade, which seemed to be swinging lightly on the tail, seemed to be aimed at flying above the energy tank of a heavy tank......
"Lying down !!" He shouted hurriedly, and a few seconds later, a loud bang was heard, followed by several pieces of metal, which also flew down on him......
The captain of the "......" angrily looked back at a few of his subordinates who were also lying on the balcony again, and rolled his eyes violently!
One of the assaulters turned his face away in embarrassment.
……
"......" An armored car was quietly parked on the north side of a small street, and the machine gunner looked at the few infantry hidden in the small street, and then focused his attention on the other side of the street, a few dozen meters away.
A few seconds later, several armored vehicles with a squad of infantry slowly appeared on the other side of the street......
"Full Fire!!
With the shouts of the machine gunners, the M2 heavy machine gun, the S-44 assault rifle, and the FG-42 drum paratrooper machine gun were constantly spitting metal bullets at the enemy at the other end of the street.
Under the fierce attack, the opposing infantry quickly fell into the street like a pile of wheat straw with sharp blades.
As for one of the armored vehicles, a row of bullet holes was punched out of the thin armor shutter in the cockpit, in which a dozen 12.7mm bullet holes were irregularly scattered around the driver's observation hole......
……
On several streets, the fighting intensified.
A group of infantry from the Grunshire Empire took the opportunity to burrow into a civilian house, but they did not expect that there were two S-type anti-personnel grenades detonated with steel wires wrapped around the door, and when one of the people led by them inadvertently tripped the fuse wire, in just two seconds, the two S-type anti-personnel grenades exploded.
Countless small steel balls splashed violently, and when they encountered something that could stop them, they lost power before they stopped and landed on the street outside.
Several Grunshire Imperial soldiers who were closest to the location of the explosion and had the right angle couldn't even scream, and dozens or even hundreds of small steel balls were embedded in their bodies, and they quickly lost their vitality, and after falling to the ground and convulsing a few times, there was no more sound......
Some lucky people were embedded in a small number of small steel balls in non-lethal parts, and they were also covered with cold sweat and hurriedly leaned aside while covering their wounds.
Others moved on, but with much more caution.
Gris is a combat sapper, and he has laid out the grenade trap on the door just now.
He also noticed the movement from below, so he gently poked his finger on the shoulder of the co-heavy Hill, and made a gesture for us to go down and have a look.
Sub-Heavy Hill nodded, picked up the S-44 assault rifle he had beside him, and gently followed behind Gris.
The two of them walked softly to the corridor on the second floor, looked at the hidden door, and then quietly listened to the footsteps coming from the corridor.
The two glanced at each other, and then Hill shouted, "Elven Dragon! ”
No response......
The two hurriedly rushed into the rooms on both sides, then looked at each other, each took out an M2 grenade, and opened the safety with their teeth......
2…… 1……
A Glenshire Imperial soldier, who had carefully opened the door, was about to raise his weapon and shoot into the corridor where no one was there.
Unexpectedly, two grenades flew out of each of the rooms on both sides, and then he hurriedly tried to close the door, but it was too late......
Several screams were followed by explosions and bursts of explosions, which reached the ears of the two of them.
"What should I do?" Hill gestured.
"Ten seconds later, throw two more grenades." Gris replied with a gesture in response.
Just ten seconds later, after the two of them bit the grenade safety with their teeth again, several submachine gun shots rang out, and Morris nodded in surprise as he looked at the row of bullet holes extending a few centimeters above Hill's head.
Two seconds later, two more grenade explosions were heard, but Morris quickly pulled out his pistol and fired across the room.
The "Pong ......" appeared on the terrace, and a snowflake appeared on the forehead of the Glenshire Army with his weapon raised, and then fell straight back and fell into the street.
He was about to say something to Ciel, but was surprised to find that Ciel, a rookie, had slammed down the hallway and pushed him out of the way at the same time......
"......Boom" Hill had just pressed against the grenade when it exploded......
"Oh...... No! Glancing at Hill, who had closed his eyes and blood in his abdomen, Morris picked up his Sturmgewehr-44 assault rifle and swept it against the wall......
……
Under the onslaught of the Grunshire army, the direction of the houses fell one after another, but this had a slight impact on the overall battle situation.
Because the soldiers who occupied the house were interested in weapons in the hands of the enemy......
And so, the trap produced by Sinia came into play.
Dozens of Grunshire officers and soldiers had to raise their mutilated hands in pain, watching this incredible situation happen.
……
Zhang Shixin's troops suffered heavy casualties, especially the houses in front of several streets, and almost none of the soldiers survived......
Not only infantry, armored vehicles and tanks have suffered considerable battle damage, especially some armored vehicles that are not able to retreat, the 30mm front armor plate can not resist the direct attack of the opponent's 100mm tank gun, basically, a 100mm shell can easily reimburse Zhang Shixin for an armored car.
Zhang Shixin was very distressed about his loss, but he didn't pay much attention to this situation, because he was too busy to take care of himself.
On a main road, Zhang Shixin's Tiger P tank broke tracks, and next to it was the debris of a No. 4 "Leopard G" equipped tank that had been destroyed to cover his retreat. And on this main road, there are not only the wreckage of more than a dozen tanks of various types of the Glenshire Empire, but also the wreckage of one Tiger tank and two Panther G tanks, which shows the fierceness of the battle. After the loader and the communicator risked jumping out of the car to repair the tracks, the Tiger P tank was activated again. Slowly retreat into the corner of the street.
"Damn! If we continue to fight like this, my troops will have to fight clean! Are these people beaten with chicken blood? Zhang Shixin roared angrily.
Zhang Shixin's tactical map has many less display marks for tanks, armored vehicles, assault guns, and self-propelled anti-tank guns.
Although the 88mm long anti-tank gun of the Rhino self-propelled anti-tank gun is more powerful than the Tiger and Tiger P tank guns, the fighting compartment armor of the Rhino is completely indistinguishable from the enemy's heavy and heavy tanks.
In contrast, the Grizzly Assault Gun's combat protection can also indirectly block the opponent's 100mm shells.
It's just that the anti-tank capabilities of the Grizzly assault gun are much weaker than the "Rhino" self-propelled anti-tank gun.
In this case, not only is it due to the slow turning and slow loading of the other side, but also Zhang Shixin's biggest plan is to use the Grizzly assault gun as a shield for the Rhino self-propelled anti-tank gun in this battle and stick to a small area.
Well, now the other side seems to know that the Rhino self-propelled anti-tank gun seems to be easier to bully, regardless of casualties, the Rhino anti-tank gun must be destroyed first, and then directly withstand the attack of the Grizzly Anti-tank gun and beat the other side.
The mobile Panther G and the No. 4 "Leopard G" had to replace the gaps left by the destroyed Grizzly assault guns and the Rhino self-propelled anti-tank guns, resulting in Zhang Shixin's fewer and fewer mobile forces to mobilize.
Although he knew that in the defense of towns, infantry was much more effective than tanks. But......
Zhang Shixin must now add a sentence:
That is, in the presence of tank killers, who will take an anti-tank grenade and pile a tank with human lives?
Tiger King Shenma's are secondary, you have to get the "Katyusha" self-propelled rocket launcher first, the losses are too serious, if there are tank killers, many times, in places with dense defense areas, no tank armored vehicles can easily deal with the opponent's tanks. Even if it is an infantryman, many times it is no longer necessary to fight tanks one by one with their own lives.
When Zhang Shixin gritted his teeth and determined that the Tiger King would be postponed and prioritize the tank killer, it was still in that small warehouse that several commanders of the Glenshire Army met again.
It's just that the number of people is much smaller.
"Do you still need to fight? I don't have any reserve troops to call on other than my own car. My armoured division now doesn't know if a fifth of its tanks are still capable of fighting. The commander of the armored division looked at the participants with red eyes, and roared.
"We've already taken the ...... of their fortified area," a brigade commander grew quieter and quieter, and finally did not finish his sentence.
Many people are clear about the reason why the other person didn't finish speaking.
That's because the other side still controls half of the port area.
They fought for a few hours, and they only took such a few places, and how many more could they take after they beat up the rest of the area?
Even if the other party controlled a fifth of the port area, they could not be considered defeated.
But if they can't take the port completely, then they can only be regarded as a failure.
This is simply a bottomless pit, and unless they have more military strength, it is undoubtedly a fool's dream to occupy this port completely.
But where will the more military power come from?
Nobody knows.
The commander of an armored brigade said: "We can actually ignore the defenders completely and rush directly to the port area. ”
The commander of the armored division heard the idiotic remarks of this subordinate, and couldn't help but be furious: "You idiot, you treat the other party as a dry meal?" They only need to pester our infantry with a certain amount of combat power, and our tanks will definitely die without a place to be buried. You haven't understood this after fighting for so long? ”
"Divisional commander, I'm ......" The brigade commander shrank his head, he didn't know what to say.
The crowd no longer paid attention to the brigade commander and continued to discuss the problem.
"Do you think we're going to be able to get the job done?" The commander of a mechanized division said lightly an important point.
Everyone was well aware and aware that this had reached the point where they had to give up.
"We ...... Surrender ......" just didn't wait for the other party to finish speaking, but he heard a dense and shivering shrill whistling sound from the sky......
"Artillery attack! Note ......"
"Boom ......"
More than a dozen large-caliber shells fell around the small warehouse, and the blue sea of fire immediately flooded the small warehouse......
Not only that, but the entire perimeter of the port area was shrouded in dense blue sparks......
"General, it is said that the Duke hates friendly soldiers for accidental injuries, will we cover such a large area of shelling will ......" A young man dressed in Gultokati [***] looked at the results of the shelling with a telescope, and asked the middle-aged soldiers around him with a little worry.
"Don't worry about it, maybe our duke will be very supportive of us doing this...... Well, stop the shelling, and let's go and welcome our Lord Duke. The middle-aged soldier said heartily.
"So, what about the Glenshire soldiers?" Again, the youth asked a question.
The middle-aged soldier was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said, "Well...... I didn't see the Grunshire army flying the white flag directly attacking. Why do you care so much about them? Let's go!!! ”
With the order of the middle-aged soldier, hundreds of tanks and various heavy self-propelled weapons behind him immediately rushed to this port......
……
Zhang Shixin glanced at the friendly army displays that appeared one after another in the tactical map, and had to think depressedly: "Fortunately, the army of the Gultoka Empire is not the police of that world...... Anyway, why do I feel like there's no difference? ”
In a sense, Zhang Shixin's feeling was correct, and reinforcements from the Gultoka Empire only appeared at the last moment......
It's just that this so-called last minute is a little different in meaning.
……
The battle was over, and victory was unassuming after a Gultoka Empire had arrived at the same time, arrived one step earlier, and captured the target port, and the Panzer Corps that had rushed to support it.
After Zhang Shixin received the battle settlement, he immediately snapped 100,000 experience points on the "Katyusha" self-propelled rocket launcher.
He was fed up with the combat losses of having to re-establish a force again.
Six Tiger tanks were destroyed and two were seriously damaged. Of the 12 Tiger tanks, except for two intact, the others were more or less seriously damaged, and the huge loss of more than six was so bad that Zhang Shixin vomited blood.
The combat losses of other tank units were also very serious, especially the death of more than 400 infantry in such a favorable battle, which was even more unacceptable, so he made a decision not to be a tiger king, but also to strengthen the anti-tank combat capability of the infantry unit.
As for the losses in this operation, Zhang Shixin told the truth that he had made a little bit of money in terms of replenishing the losses and consumption......
Compared with. The Glenshire Empire lost the strength of an armored corps this time, and front-line military operations had to be adjusted, giving the Kingdom of Capani time to prepare for another war.
However, compared with this matter, Zhang Shixin is more concerned about where this war will develop.
He knew very well that the current Carpani Kingdom was actually far from recovering, which meant that for a long time, it was the Gultoka Empire that was able to withstand the war.
He wasn't worried that the Gultoka Empire wouldn't be able to defeat the Grunshire Empire, but he always felt that the Grunshire Empire invaded the Duchy Alliance so openly, and he wouldn't do anything that didn't benefit him, in the same way, as a first-class power, it was very unreliable to start a war without enough benefits.
There must be a conspiracy, but Zhang Shixin doesn't know what the other party is planning. He could only detect the slightest abnormality.
……
A few days later, the members of the Elven Dragon Security Company continued their journey after a little rest, but one of the five squads had a weapon known as the Panzerschreck, which means tank killer, in his hand.
Zhang Shixin expressed a very good attitude towards this, although the tank killer is much more expensive than the iron fist, but the range of the scum of the iron fist, Zhang Shixin will not choose.
Moreover, there were fifteen more tracked self-propelled rocket launchers called "Katyusha" and a combination of ancillary armored vehicles behind the convoy.
No one knows how powerful this thing is, but it seems that they can see the boss's happy face...... All right. Think of him as an effective new weapon.
PS: The second update, Katyusha has a tracked model, not all of which are truck modified chassis.
