Chapter 443: Saving the Boston GIs (Part II)

The slender iron pipe was aimed at the shooting hole of the fortress, and a line of fire suddenly erupted from the exit of a small flame, which was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, it crossed a distance of twenty meters and directly drilled into the shooting hole, which was the latest flamethrower of the Chinese Empire.

A scream rang out, the iron gates of the fortress were suddenly opened, and a group of burning Thar soldiers rushed out of the fortress, howling and rolling on the ground, trying to extinguish the fire, but the strange flames were still burning.

Gradually, their howls grew quieter and quieter, until they were completely silent, and the flames were still burning. The Yaman soldiers, who saw this scene for the first time, were shocked to see it, but they didn't have time to sigh, after breaking through the defensive line, some of the Yaman soldiers were responsible for leading the way for the Iron Blood, and the other chariot units quickly returned to their positions.

"It's only twenty kilometers from the port of Sturdam." Wedeman exclaimed, this time he had earned himself a chance to lead the way, and he wanted to see for himself what these amazing warriors could do.

Due to the lack of vehicles, most of the Predator soldiers advanced on foot, but their superior physique and high-intensity training allowed them to walk on the ground as if they were carrying heavy equipment, and they still moved quickly with ease, while those Yaman guides who lacked physical strength sat in jeeps.

"The whole army is ready to fight, call for air support." When approaching a distance of ten kilometers from the port of Stedam, the gunfire of the battle was already very close, Xu Xiangnan immediately issued an order to the whole army through the short-range communicator on the steel helmet, and more than a dozen wheeled reconnaissance vehicles immediately rushed forward at full power, and they would disperse in all directions to do a battlefield reconnaissance.

Looking at the soldiers of the Iron Blood Army who were ready for all the battles during the run, Weedman was envious, such well-trained soldiers were not available in the Yaman Army, and the most strange thing for him was that many soldiers and jeeps had stopped, and they took out some simple shelves and some iron pipes from the back seat of the jeep and assembled them there.

Wedman had the impression that they were very similar to the bazookas used by the Predator infantry during the night assault, except that the iron pipes were thicker and longer. Soon they were all assembled, and each iron frame was divided into three rows, each with four iron pipes, which looked neatly like a pipe organ common in churches in the Western Continent.

The soldiers who had assembled the 'organs' were busy adjusting the angles, and the reconnaissance vehicles in front had already transmitted the coordinates of the Saar people directly to the artillerymen through a short-range communicator, and the artillerymen immediately began to calibrate the angles, and then they loaded the rockets into the iron pipes.

"Report to the commander, the artillery is ready and ready to fire." The commanders of several artillery regiments all ran over to report to Xu Xiangnan.

"Those are cannons? Good boy, a lot of barrels. Weideman muttered.

"Let's attack." Xu Xiangnan nodded. Several artillery commanders immediately saluted and returned to their troops, and Weidman saw that the soldiers quickly avoided the 'pipe organs', and as several red flags were waved almost at the same time, some soldiers pressed on a box connected by wires from afar, and the 'pipe organs' suddenly hissed, and the whole ground was immediately covered in dust and smoke, but soon a fire dragon pierced through the dust and smoke, drew a streamer in the sky, and went straight to the Sahr position.

Seeing the fierce firing of these weapons, Weedman craned his neck to see what was going on in the distant Saar position. Xu Xiangnan, who was in the same car with him, smiled: "If you want to see it, give you a telescope." ”

Seeing that this senior official actually talked to him, Weideman was a little embarrassed, he twisted and didn't dare to take it, Gao Wei on the side smiled and said: "The commander will take it for you, there are not so many rules for officers and soldiers in our army, everyone is very easy-going, except when fighting, of course." ”

Weedman embarrassedly took the binoculars and said thank you, then he quickly picked up the binoculars and looked at the Saar positions in the distance. After a little delay, there were no explosions on the Saar's position, only devastation, and he looked at everything in amazement, wondering how those strange artillery pieces had turned this place into a living hell, but soon his doubts were solved.

The second round of shelling began again after the rockets had been planted, covering the Sahr positions in patches and covering the entire area in smoke and dust. This fast-firing 'pipe organ' is the latest Type 08 rocket launcher of the Chinese Empire, although it does not have the mobility of the Type 07 vehicle-mounted rocket artillery, but it is more flexible to use, both can be combined or disassembled, and can be used as a 127 mm individual rocket launcher after disassembly, and can be combined into a nine-tube, twelve-tube, or even forty-tube rocket artillery, absolutely free combination, powerful, very suitable for paratroopers who cannot carry a large number of vehicles.

Although the rocket artillery was relatively slow to reload and had a short range, a salvo was very powerful, and with only these two shots, the unprepared Saar people were already dead and wounded. The rapid advance of the group of jeeps, and the rapid fire of the large-caliber machine guns on the board directly broke the Thar soldiers who had not had time to stand up in two.

"There's an army out there attacking the Sahr, and our reinforcements are coming." A regimental commander of the Boston army excitedly broke into the headquarters, his face was blackened by gunsmoke, and the military uniform on his body had several traces of ablation.

Admiral Pershing, who was sitting in the ruins in the corner, opened his blood-red eyes, and now he had a scruffy beard and a tired face, and it was impossible to tell that he was just a middle-aged officer less than forty years old. Hearing the words of the regiment leader, a glint flashed in his eyes: "What? Have troops come to meet us? Gather people immediately, we will start a counterattack from inside the city, and we must cooperate with each other, so that we can break through. ”

When the chief of staff on the side heard Pershing's words, he immediately agreed, and then walked out of the room to arrange the manpower. In the past ten days of the battle, the Boston army has been sharply reduced from more than 50,000 to less than 20,000, and many of them have been scattered, and it will take a lot of time to get together.

It took a lot of effort for the chief of staff to gather more than 8,000 people, and looking at General Pershing who walked out of the house, the chief of staff panted and said: "General, I only gathered more than 8,000 people, and I will look for it again." ”
