Chapter 31: Kill In
The heavy machine guns mounted on the towers constantly spewed out tongues of fire and fired hot bullets. It's just that this time the horse bandits learned to be obedient and dispersed very widely, which weakened the power of the heavy machine gun a lot. Subsequently, the cavalry guns also began to shoot. Unlike the heavy machine gun fire, the cavalry gun carried out accurate fire, and with the marksmanship of the soldiers of the third company, every five bullets can end the life of a horse bandit. The artillery did not fire, and the horse bandits were scattered too much, and if they fired, the power would be greatly reduced, and it would be a complete waste of shells.
The result of the bandits' change of tactics was very effective, and they quickly approached the station. It's just that a hundred meters in front of the military station is a row of rejecting horses, and if the horse bandits want to rush in, they must move the rejecting horses away. The rejection horse outside the military station is not an ordinary rejection horse, and the bottom end has been completely nailed to the ground. If you want to get rid of the rejection, you need tools, and it takes a little time.
This allowed the onslaught of the horse bandits to be blocked. And at this time, it became the best time for the third company to harvest the lives of the horse bandits. Whether it is a heavy machine gun or a cavalry gun, they all fire quickly at this moment to eliminate the horse bandits to the greatest extent. As more and more horse bandits were blocked by the rejected horses, the power of the heavy machine guns was fully revealed.
"Da Da Da!" Amid the roar of heavy machine guns, the horse bandits gathered behind the horses fell one by one. Some of the bandits jumped off their horses and tried to move the horses away, but found that they could not move at all. There were even more horse bandits, until their companions were killed one after another, and they were so frightened that they turned around and fled. The scene became a little chaotic.
"Dismount and suppress the heavy machine gun!" Suddenly, a young man among the horse bandits shouted. Suddenly, dozens of people immediately jumped off their horses, used their horses as shields, put their rifles on their horses, and aimed at the tower and fired.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! "The bullets struck the heavy machine guns and the shields on both sides with a crisp sound. Bullets flew wildly, and soldiers operating heavy machine guns had to bury themselves in the earth. Wang Yuze, who was observing from the tower, was also hit by a bullet flying overhead, almost reimbursing him. Wang Yuze had to bury his head low. This makes him realize that although he is a person who has crossed over, he does not seem to be invincible, and a single bullet can kill him. Therefore, it is better to be careful.
"Company commander, it's dangerous here, you go to the station to command!" A soldier said loudly to Wang Yuze.
"Leave me alone, keep firing!" Wang Yuze shook his head. Now is not the time to retreat, and as soon as he leaves, it will definitely affect morale. The cessation of the heavy machine gun fire immediately boosted the morale of the bandits. Several bandits worked together to move away from the horse.
At this time, the heavy machine gun continued to fire, and the horse bandits were killed in time. However, dozens of horse bandits specialized in suppressing heavy machine guns, so that at some point the heavy machine guns had to stop firing. This gave the bandits a lot of time to set up calmly.
"Artillery fire!" Wang Yuze shouted an order at the artillery in the station.
Liu Haoran, the leader of the fire team, immediately received the order. "Three hundred meters ahead, five rapid fires!" Liu Haoran gave the order loudly. The fire team had already marked the shooting units in front of the station, and the artillerymen immediately began shelling according to the direction.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "Five mortars, in less than half a minute, fired 25 shells, all of which hit the place where the bandits gathered, and immediately suffered heavy casualties.
Subsequently, under the combined blows of heavy machine guns and cavalry guns, the horse bandits were once again frightened and had to retreat. In this battle, the horse bandits again lost two or three hundred people. It's just that the third company also paid the price of two dead and three wounded. The wounded were immediately taken to the clinic for treatment, and the two killed, one heavy machine gunner and the other was killed by stray bullets while firing at the bandits.
At the end of the fierce battle, the soldiers seized the time to rest and recover. At the same time, the consumed weapons and ammunition also need to be replenished. On the defensive side, the soldiers of the 3rd Company hid in strong fortifications and suffered much fewer casualties. And the horse bandits are much more miserable. In two attacks, they lost nearly 500 men. The dying and seriously wounded, as well as the horses that had lost their owners, let out screams and wails, and no one paid attention. In front of the military station, it has completely become a hell on earth.
"Big young master, the defense of the military station is too strong, we can't attack it! We can't even get to the wall of the station, so if we continue like this, we will be sent to death! Boss Ma said angrily. In two waves of attacks, almost half of the bandits were killed. Even the Green Horse Army brought by Ma Qi killed dozens of people.
Ma Qi also frowned, the defensive power of the third company's military station was completely beyond his imagination.
"Come on, in the next wave of attacks, blow up the horse with gunpowder. After rushing under the wall, blast the wall with flames and kill the inside of the station. As long as we can make it, we've won! Ma Qi said loudly.
Some horse bandits who were already frightened were relieved when they heard that Ma Qi still had hole cards.
"Young Master, we only have ten gunpowder packs prepared! Originally, it was used to prepare for blasting through the walls of the military station. If it's used to blow up the rejection, it's a bit insufficient! A soldier of the Green Horse Army whispered.
"It's okay, after blowing up the rejection horse, gather the remaining gunpowder packs and use them, and you can also blow up a big hole in the wall of the military station!" Ma Qi said confidently.
"Yes, young master!"
The bandits rested again for more than an hour, and after they had eaten and drunk enough, they attacked again. In the winter on the plateau, the daylight hours are relatively short, and it is almost dark by 5 o'clock in the afternoon. Therefore, for the horse bandits, there is only one chance to attack. The weather at night was cold to death, and if you organize a night attack, it is estimated that you will be frozen to death before you can attack it.
"Kill, kill into the military station, drink wine and eat meat and sleep!" Ma Qi knew the role of boosting morale and shouted loudly.
"Kill! Fight in the station! Drink wine and eat meat and sleep! The bandits roared loudly, and then immediately rode their horses to the station.
"Prepare for battle!" When the horse bandits attacked, Wang Yuze also gave the order to prepare for battle. Although it was a bit dangerous to stay in the tower, the horse bandits did not have artillery and the danger was not so high. Here, it is also more convenient for him to command the battle.
"Fire!" After the horse bandits entered the firing range, Wang Yuze ordered loudly.
"Da Da Da!" The heavy machine gun immediately opened fire, and the horse bandits, who had been trapped in the crosshairs, were immediately blown away by the powerful bullets. The cavalry guns in the hands of the soldiers also opened fire. Dense firepower began to reap the lives of the horse bandits.
"Rush!" The bandits shouted loudly, and rushed forward desperately against the bullets of the soldiers of the third company. Soon they rushed to the place where the horses were blocked.
Several soldiers of the Green Horse Army with gunpowder bags immediately dismounted, blocked the war horses in front, and then placed gunpowder bags under the horses. Ignite and leave quickly.
"Boom! Rumble! Five loud bangs rang out in quick succession. The originally sturdy rejection horse was blown into the sky. In that row of rejected horses, five big loopholes suddenly appeared.
"Kill! Kill it! When the horse was blown up, the morale of the horse bandits was greatly boosted, and they immediately rushed to the military station with their horses in despair.
"Not good! Fire with all your might, don't save bullets, they have explosives in their hands! The artillery opened fire in full force! Wang Yuze ordered loudly. The moment the horse was blown up, he immediately realized the danger. If the bandits use explosives to blow open the walls of the station and rush into the station, they will be in danger. In a scuffle, their weapon superiority cannot be brought into play, while the horse bandits are outnumbered.
The horse was only a hundred meters away from the wall of the station. At this distance, the cavalry charge can rush through in just a dozen seconds.
The soldiers of the third company, too, realized the danger and immediately began to shoot desperately. Whether it was the cavalry guns in the hands of the soldiers, the heavy machine guns erected on the towers, and the mortars of the fire teams, they all exerted their maximum firepower. Bullets poured down on the bandits, killing one after another. However, they were still swept under the wall by horse bandits.
