Chapter 4 Bloody Opérez (2) Gas Bombs

Compared with the bloodless battle of Zhang Shixin's Elven Dragon Security Company, the troops of the other three countries were too aggressive, and after eliminating the militia forces on the periphery, they did not communicate and communicate with Zhang Shixin, and carried out the next attack non-stop, and the result was a bloody encounter.

The Union Army of GLP was the worst, with a mixed assault corps (two infantry divisions, one mechanized division, one armored division plus a heavy armored brigade) remaining less than a third of its troops after a day of fighting to be able to retreat from the battlefield.

The almost complete loss of heavy equipment speaks of a rather tragic situation for them.

Beria, who got the news, was furious, because he definitely did not expect that the battle situation in which victory was in his hands would turn into a humiliating situation of abandoning his armor and fleeing in the wilderness.

He ordered the commander of the legion, General Kodilon of the GLP Alliance Panzers, to be captured in the headquarters and questioned him in person.

……

"With the support of such superior forces, you can still fight like this, if it weren't for this kind of thing really surprising us, I have to know the real situation, I would have ordered you to be escorted back to the country a long time ago." Beria sat behind a desk, tapped her hand on the table, and looked at Cordillon coldly.

"Comrade Marshal, I can't help it, the strength of the other party's troops is not at all comparable to those militia organizations mentioned in the intelligence, and the other party's fortress area is no longer the machine gun and light artillery bunkers we encountered earlier, but is equipped with a large number of heavy artillery. The other side also has a large number of tanks hidden in the tank trenches, and we can't easily break through this area,"

Cordillon paused for a moment, then continued: "I ordered the troops to make a tentative attack, but in less than half an hour, all the soldiers of an infantry brigade fell in the course of the attack, and only two lucky but crazy company commanders were able to come back alive. In this way, the soldiers of the opposing side also used a considerable number of automatic weapons to achieve such results. ”

"Then I asked a heavy armored battalion with a certain number of infantry to launch a tentative attack, as a result, in less than five minutes, the offensive was stopped by force, the other side was completely stingy with shells, more than a thousand shells like raindrops, pouring on the heads of the attacking troops, the soldiers were very brave, but they were also flesh and blood. They were blown up in droves, killed and wounded by shells, and the heavy tanks were destroyed or paralyzed on the offensive line before they had time to play their role. ”

"After the troops retreated, there were few officers and soldiers who could not be left intact, and I even had to order the execution of some wounded soldiers who were too badly wounded. In the third attack, I ordered a division to launch an offensive, and although the enemy's artillery fire was quite fierce, we still achieved certain results. However, the enemy has placed tank trenches of greater or lesser length on some important points, and our attacking forces have suffered considerable losses in a stalemate with the other side, while the other side has been able to rely on the cover to bring us a powerful blow, so we can only order the troops to use refueling tactics in the hope of turning the tide of the battle. ”

"It's a pity that until dusk came, I and the soldiers still failed, Comrade Marshal, those soldiers were very brave, and they all fulfilled their mission as a soldier brilliantly. So I'm willing to take responsibility for the defeat of this battle. ”

At this, Codylan lowered his head and stopped talking, and the interrogation room fell silent.

Beria, who still didn't look good, glanced at Cordillon, and finally whispered a few words to one of the guards beside him......

……

Half an hour later, the guard returned to Beria's side and looked at him with a strange look.

Beria said suspiciously: "The other party still lied about the battle situation in order to get away with it?" ”

"Comrade Marshal, this is not the case, but the situation is much more serious. General Cordillon simply did not hold out until dusk, and as the troops began to show signs of collapse, he had to give the order to stop the offensive. The guard told what he could say: "According to the intelligence, there are indeed several militia divisions stationed in that area, but they are actually ......"

"What is it, actually?" Beria was dissatisfied with the hesitation of his subordinates and said coldly.

"Some of the private troops of the large and medium-sized nobles in Osville." The guard said what he didn't quite believe in the matter: "Isn't it a bit appalling that the nobles' private soldiers are as good as the regular army?" ”

Beria didn't answer, but sighed softly: "I really didn't expect that those people would actually cause me so much trouble at this time." Miscalculated. I'm not afraid to tell you, those so-called aristocratic private armies do have such abilities, and unlike other countries, the upper nobles of the Osville Empire do have the ability to shake the foundation of this country's rule. It can be said that the royal family of the Osville Empire is just the most powerful noble. Alas...... I really didn't expect those people to be silent in the battle more than ten years ago, but at this time, they came to the fore. ”

"Are those people afraid of losing their rights to do such things?" The guards spoke their minds.

"That's right, you're right. The attacks of these forces have indeed made these people lose their way to wait and see. It is inevitable that those people, no matter which country we are, will not accept them, once the Osville Empire is destroyed by us, they will basically lose everything they 'deserve', and they will naturally have to desperately protect themselves. Beria sighed softly and continued: "I should have thought of this point, but it was really a miscalculation. ”

"So...... General Codylon, what to do? The guard asked.

"Give him a pistol and say that his family will be secretly transferred, and that's what I can do." There was a hint of unbearability in Beria's eyes, but he had to do it.

After all, such a defeat requires one person to take responsibility.

He was the commander of the battle, and he was also the head of KGB, the intelligence organization of the GLP Alliance, and if he really wanted to be held responsible, he would not be able to escape the blame.

So, even if Beria didn't want to, he had to do something like that.

After watching the escort leave, Beria sat behind his desk and said nothing.

Although the relationship with Cordillon is not very good, but doing such a thing in order to keep his position is really unaccustomed to a Beria who waits for a heavy responsibility because of chance.

"Maybe I'm not a full-fledged politician yet." Beria muttered to herself.

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

The intelligence agents of the alliance between the two countries scattered among the GLP alliance naturally got the reason why Cordillon committed suicide in the camp because of his defeat.

The news was quickly sent to the two commanders of the headquarters of the Alliance Expeditionary Force of the Two Countries, and the senior leaders of the Alliance Expeditionary Force of the Two Nations, who were discussing the battle, showed a knowing smile.

When Zhang Shixin relayed the news to them, the two old slippery heads decided to pit the GLP Alliance once after discussion.

But they definitely didn't expect the effect to be so obvious.

Although Cordillon's reputation was not obvious, after the outbreak of the Northern War, Cordillon's legions broke through the defensive line that the Osville Empire had painstakingly operated for more than ten years in a short period of time, proving that this man was quite good.

Although there are still more than 20,000 troops to lose, for a country, sometimes it is more useful to eliminate a capable general than to eliminate 10,000 soldiers.

For the GLP Alliance, the other side does not lack population, but there are very few generals with war experience. Therefore, Codylen's "suicide" can be regarded as a good thing for the alliance of the two countries.

However, after the two old foxes laughed, they also had a rather helpless thought in their hearts, that is, for these noble private armies, even Codylan would have to pay a considerable price.

What is the price of this?

Maybe 10,000, maybe 20,000, maybe more precious lives of officers and soldiers.

However, they still have a considerable advantage over the GLP Alliance Army, that is, many of their weapons and equipment are copied from the weapons and equipment sold to them by Zhang Shixin.

Although the quality is not as good as Zhang Shixin's own use, the effect is not too bad.

However, it is not their own problems that are worried, nor the private armies of the aristocracy, but how to deal with the people who are coerced.

A strong assault will inevitably cause certain losses, and it is even possible that a single shell will kill a considerable number of civilians.

It is inevitable that there will be accidental injuries in the war, but such an open coercion of the people to defend the city, even the Kingdom of Helrington has never done this.

Naturally, they could have their soldiers shoot at these civilians, but this order was not easy to order.

After the end of this war, they were in charge of the territory that had been divided long ago. But that's not the problem, the problem is that if they order to shoot all the "enemies" indiscriminately, then the pressure on them is very great, and it may even shake the very foundation of their domination of their respective jurisdictions.

As long as the slaughter of prisoners is done cleanly, there are many reasons to be found.

But the massacre of civilians must first have officers and soldiers who can handle it, and it is obvious that there are very few troops in the expeditionary force of the alliance between the two countries that can accomplish this task, and even if there are, very few.

You can't just rely on these troops to attack the enemy, just a few people are not enough to stuff the enemy's teeth.

In the end, they had to give the heralds an order that the junior officers had the right to attack civilians indiscriminately during the battle.

To tell the truth, the two old foxes knew very well that saying this was not much different from giving the order to shoot indiscriminately, and at best it sounded a little better.

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

Zhang Shixin's troops were stationed on a small high ground and in the surrounding area, and six kilometers ahead was a group of enemy pillboxes.

These bunker groups not only contained a large number of artillery pieces of different calibers, but also showed that these bunkers were quite capable of counterattacking.

At the same time, some of the corpses that were hung from the concrete walls of the bunkers, and some civilians dressed as civilians, also indicate that these bunkers were also imprisoned by a considerable number of civilians.

Zhang Shixin looked at his subordinates with a pale face, he had explained before this meeting that they couldn't say nothing.

Most of the people in the tent looked at Dresses who had entered the tent early with different faces after entering, many of them were quite disgusted by this practice, but because of their colleague relationship and their private friendship, otherwise these people would not have said a word.

"We're all here, so let's start today's meeting. I think you all know the situation very well, and what I want to say is, is there a way for you to destroy the enemy army without injuring a lot of civilians and without paying too much price? Zhang Shixin propped up the table with his hand and said his problem.

However, as Zhang Shixin expected, more than a dozen people, including Grelian, shook their heads after thinking for a while.

To attack such a bunker group and want to rescue those civilians, not to mention them mortals, God will also have a headache such a thing.

As for paying the price, according to Zhang Shixin's tactics to attack, Zhang Shixin's losses will not be too large, but the civilians inside basically don't think about having living people.

At the same time, Mo Fei relayed a message to Zhang Shixin, that is, those bunkers, whether they were turrets or bunkers, had placed a large number of bombs, and if they fought one by one, then even if they really occupied those bunkers, I am afraid that Zhang Shixin would get a ruin and a dozen or even more pieces of flesh and blood that could not even be put together.

Firay wanted to stay out of the matter, but he felt that almost everyone present was looking at him, and while he was depressed in his heart, he had to stand up and say with a helpless face: "Boss, colleagues, it is obvious that it is impossible for us to do such a thing. Those civilians are already in the dead place, and it is undoubtedly impossible for us to rescue the other party. At the same time, we also need to face more powerful enemies, so if we have the slightest hope of saving those poor people, how much will it cost? ”

Filé paused, then continued: "We can't save them just because they are pitiful, do our colleagues have to pay with their lives in such a situation?" So, I recommend...... After the offensive, the fact is indiscriminately striking. ”

Firay said, subconsciously glanced at Carter and Dress:

Carter's expression was rather helpless, but he just sighed and returned to normal.

Dressy bent his face, his lips squirmed slightly, but he didn't speak.

Fei Lei silently said sorry in his heart, because whether it was him or Zhang Shixin, they didn't have the slightest way to complete such a difficult thing.

In fact, what Fei Lei didn't know was that if Zhang Shixin knew that he would face such a situation, he would choose a way:

That is to use Beats gas to make most of the people unable to resist, and then take the bunkers one by one.

However, Biz poison gas also has a problem, that is, if the concentration is sufficient, it can also poison people, so Zhang Shixin finally chose sarin poison gas.

But for Zhang Shixin, such a decision is really not easy to make, whether the gas bomb will become a Pandora's box, Zhang Shixin does not pay much attention to such a problem, but he cannot easily face the death and injury of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of civilians......

At the beginning, Zhang Shixin did not let his subordinates kill civilians on the battlefield, but the situation was small compared to now.

What Zhang Shixin knew more clearly was that what Fei Lei said was quite correct, they couldn't do such a difficult thing.

Since he wants to rescue civilians and doesn't want to pay a certain price, this kind of good thing is impossible for Zhang Shixin. Just the defensive weapons equipped with those pillboxes and fortresses, if Zhang Shixin carried out a strong attack, it would not be of much benefit.

Zhang Shixin glanced at everyone, and then said, "Does anyone have any other opinions?" ”

Ten seconds passed quickly, and Zhang Shixin voted: "Those who agree with the indiscriminate attack tomorrow...... Raise your hand, please! ”

After Zhang Shixin finished speaking, he saw his subordinates raising their hands one after another......

Filley, Strar, Andy, Carter......

In Zhang Shixin's eyes, this hand that is only rounded up represents the actions that can be taken tomorrow.

They naturally know very well that they are also indisputable accomplices in this massacre.

Finally, all those who raised their hands set their eyes on Dress.

Dressy smiled bitterly, then slowly raised his hand as well......

This agenda item was unanimously adopted......

At this time, there was a cry outside the door that was gradually fading away......

Zhang Shixin looked at the innocent girl, and could only say one sentence in his heart: "I'm sorry." ”

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

In the early morning of the next day, the wind speed was about level 6, and the temperature and humidity were quite suitable for special shelling.

More than 200 soldiers, dressed in full protective suits, lifted boxes of shells from the rear compartment of the refrigerated armored car and carried them to the already ready VI-B-WT.

The two hundred soldiers pried open the shell boxes with some ice slag, and then they removed the cold shells from the special asbestos sleeves.

On the shells, the skull symbols are so dazzling.

The soldiers carefully stuffed the shells into the magazine, and when the magazine was full, the two soldiers lifted the magazine vigorously and handed it to the two loaders behind the VI-B-WT warhead.

The two loaders, also wearing a full suit of protective suits, struggled to insert the magazine into the upper part of the lowered breech, locked the fixed safety lock, and stood in the corner of the warhead, waiting for the next move.

The gunner, dressed in a full protective suit, quickly shot at the gun, and adjusted it with the help of Eagle Eye.

Everything is ready.

……

One kilometer behind the VI-B-WT of the squad, wearing a gas mask, he raised his binoculars and saw Zhang Shixin after the squad leader signaled that he had finished preparing, put down the binoculars, looked at the hazy scenery to the east, and muttered: "I did this, right?" ”

"There is no right or wrong, only to go or not to do it, for you, some things have already been decided, so don't think about it." Sinia appeared beside Zhang Shixin, looked at the east, and seemed to say to herself: "Perhaps, the master was once as confused as you." ”

"......" Zhang Shixin nodded, and then took a deep breath:

"Fire!" (To be continued.) )
