Chapter 353: Counterattack
That night, Wang Feng sent 500 soldiers with shells, guns and ammunition, and ten of the smallest mortars to sneak into the ship with Chen Laoda and the other four, and in the next few days, three to five hundred people came on board every day, all of which were trained by the Marines trained by Momballo.
Although so far, the Democratic Alliance has only one large pickpocket boat that has captured Chen Laosan, the number of marines has reached 5,000 people, and after the end of the war, they will be mixed with Ding Zhuang from Chen Village to be integrated into the East China Sea Fleet of the Democratic Alliance Navy.
By the night of the fifth day, 50 mortars had been smuggled onto the ship, and the number of them was 2,000, including 200 special combat personnel.
It is useless for a soldier to rely only on hard training and simulation, and he must go through the test of actual combat, and it is difficult for him to believe that an army can have much combat effectiveness by relying only on military exercises and computer simulations. Soldiers must see blood, only soldiers with blood on their hands can be called soldiers, and the capture of the four main warships of the British army is the best opportunity for actual combat.
To put it mildly, even if half of the marines die, he can bear it, in life, Wang Feng takes meticulous care of the soldiers, but on the battlefield, he will become the most ruthless commander.
This time the street battle, it may not be that Wang Feng deliberately promoted, he doesn't care about the dead, he needs to temper an invincible iron army, in the final analysis, Wang Feng never thinks that Britain, France and the United States are enemies, these three countries are robbers, for robbers, if you want to be afraid of him, you can stop and stop, and talk while fighting. It's all a conflict of interests, and Russia. It is the enemy of life and death, and there is no iron-blooded army. How to fight the stubborn Russian army in the future?
On the sixth day, that is, June 27th, the sun was shining early in the morning, and it was extremely hot, even if you stayed in the shade and did not move, you were sweating profusely, and the rainy season could only feel a little cool when it rained, but when the rain stopped, the water vapor was steamed up by the sun. It's like a big steamer!
Speaking of which, Indians are most suitable for such an environment, the South Asian subcontinent is in the summer is more than 40 degrees to 50 degrees Celsius, and the Indian poor live in simple houses with poor thermal insulation, no air conditioning, and power outages from time to time, from various photos on the Internet, it can be judged that this kind of house will be hotter in direct sunlight than outside, but it can live very moisturizing. It fully shows that the high temperature resistance of the black and yellow people is far stronger than that of the yellow race.
In fact, the defects of the yellow race in physique are obvious, cold tolerance is not as good as whites, heat tolerance is not as good as blacks, the only advantage. It is a higher IQ.
Sure enough, after a night's rest, the Indian soldiers were alive and well. Plunged into a seemingly never-ending battle again!
Groups of soldiers launched a fierce assault on the fortifications occupied by the NLD forces at the howl of the British commander, and in an instant. Gunshots and explosions!
Zhou Xiuying stood on a high place behind her and shook her head. Said helplessly: "I really admire these Indians, knowing that they can't break through our positions, and attacking over and over again, I understand that they really don't have too many means except to attack from the front, and it is obviously not enough to outflank the troops in a roundabout way, and Suzhou can still draw out another 20,000 or 30,000 mobile troops, but what is the purpose of the continuous death?" Is it just for early death and early reincarnation? In the next life, will you become a Kshatriya or a Brahmin? People are dead, who knows what kind of birth will be cast? Maybe it's possible to cast pigs and dogs, haven't they ever doubted it? ”
Sheng Xuanhuai took it over and said: "Sister Xiuying, this is the power of religion, Wang Feng once said that there are a group of fanatical believers in the Baibai Sect, they are really not afraid of death, their best trick is to detonate the bomb and die with the enemy, because in their understanding, such a way of death is the death of a hero, and there will be seventy-two virgins as rewards from their gods in heaven, which is incredible, right?" We Chinese will never understand. ”
Yang Shuijiao also said: "But I have to say, this belief is very terrible, if you change the Qing army or other armies and can't attack for a long time, you will either automatically retreat, or you will collapse, and you won't keep attacking, by the way, Wang Feng, today is the day of the general attack, hurry up and end it, I'm going crazy with torture!" ”
Wang Feng deeply thought that the training of soldiers should not be excessive, and he could see that a considerable part of the soldiers were gritting their teeth to support, after all, the continuous street fighting and high tension brought obvious mental pressure to people.
Wang Feng turned his head and waved his hand: "Let's start!" ”
The herald immediately waved the flag, which was an order to put mortars into battle, and the mortars had been distributed to the forward combat units the previous night, each with five guns, and a full fifteen companies equipped.
"Knock knock~~" The battlefield sounded the unique drumming sound of mortars, and I saw that one shell after another was thrown out, blooming everywhere between 100 meters and 4500 meters in front, although the current mortars were very poor in accuracy due to technical problems, and it was basically difficult to hit the target, but the number of mortars was large, the rate of fire was fast, and the operation was simple, and it immediately formed an absolute firepower advantage over the Indian army.
"Oh God, what is this?" On the Duke Wellington, Wheath slapped his head with a look of disbelief.
In his binoculars, the Indian army hides behind the ruins or bunkers as it is the old habit to hide when NLD shells come in, but the curvature of such shells is unimaginably large, as if they were specially designed to strike the enemy in the trenches or behind bunkers.
He saw with his own eyes that the shells were bursting in the middle of the Indian soldiers, or exploding in the back, and countless corpses were thrown out, and most of the hard-won positions had been lost in a short time!
"Open the artillery, open the artillery, suppress the fire!" Lambert shouted urgently.
"Bang Bang~~" The naval guns and the fifty land cannons in front of the formation opened fire together, and black smoke bloomed again on the position of the Democratic Alliance Army.
Lambert breathed a sigh of relief: "Mr. Huish, the artillery used by the Democratic Alliance is obviously a new type of artillery, its range may not be far, but the rate of fire is extremely fast, and the curved trajectory can destroy the position, which will play an epoch-making role in hand-to-hand combat, we must figure out its principle and firing mechanism, and it is best that the soldiers on the front line can get one." ”
Huishh didn't say a word, just stared ahead, 40,000 Indian soldiers, according to inaccurate statistics, the roughly dead number was about 18,000, British commanders and soldiers, the number of dead and lost reached nearly 800, and the NLD army was still making stubborn resistance, and there was no sign of lack of ammunition, the battle was fought for nearly a month, and the battle was going on every day, but there was no hope of victory.
To be honest, Huishi has considered whether this battle should be fought again several times, and the Chinese's impression of the British is often stereotypical, but in fact, the British know how to judge the situation best, and never drag mud and water when it is time to let go.
In the previous six years of the American Revolutionary War, the American army lost 50,000 casualties, and the British army only died 20,000, but the British commander Cornwally resolutely led 8,000 troops to surrender after Yorktown was besieged by 17,000 American and French troops, including the end of World War II.
Of course, Huish was far from surrendering, he wanted to leave, he could withdraw at any time, he was just worried that he could not afford the consequences of defeat, which involved the fate of the East India Company.
Lambert understood Whish's feelings, shook his head, and said, "Mr. Whish, do you think that you can't give an account to Mr. Governor and the Council if you retreat without success?" But don't forget, if our strength is too depleted, Chen Cun may take the opportunity to repay the debt, and with Chen Village's 3.5 million pounds, it should be equal to military spending.
I understand that it is humiliating to be forced away by the Chinese, but the gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late, and after the end of the Crimean War, we ask the mainland to send troops, as for the East India Company, there will be Mr. Governor to worry about, I am only worried that if it drags on, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to clean up.
Huish still didn't squeak, he picked up the cigarette and lit it, he sucked one puff after another, showing the inner entanglement.
The shelling lasted for five minutes, and not long after it stopped, the position in front of "Knock Knock~~" came from the position like a drum, and the black shells drew a perfect parabola in the sky, one after another, the speed was dazzling, and the ground also exploded one after another.
Although Wang Feng left on the position are all larger mortars, but no matter how heavy they are, they are only modified from a light cannon of several hundred catties, which is far more convenient than a cannon in terms of transfer.
The original 12 cannons of the Democratic Alliance Army were successively transported from Suzhou, and today only 6 cannons remain, and 11 have been destroyed, precisely because the difficulty of transfer is too great.
"Oh my God!" Seeing this scene, Huishi covered his face in despair, he felt that he had collapsed, as soon as the shelling stopped, the opposite side came over, endlessly, endlessly, this is indeed quite desperate!
Lambert sighed and persuaded: "Mr. Huishi, withdraw, with Chen Village in hand, at least this trip will not lose money." ”
After shaking his head a few times, Hui Shi finally made up his mind, gritted his teeth and said, "Order, the whole army retreats!" ”
The herald waved the flag.
As the order to retreat was given, everyone felt a sense of relief, and after a month of fighting, they were physically and mentally exhausted, and nothing fell, including the four Indian kings, although nearly half of the soldiers they brought were killed, but what was the most in India? The largest number of people can often kill hundreds of thousands or even millions of people in a famine or flood, relatively speaking, nearly 20,000 people died in a war is not a big deal at all, whose state does not have a population of 10 million?
Indian soldiers have the belief of early death and early reincarnation, and they are not afraid of death, but the earth kings are different, the earth kings are all high castes, and they cherish the qiē they have, they just want to return to India! (To be continued......) R1292
