Chapter 137: The Battle for Pingxian
Without artillery units, the incoming Oss army would have less fire support, and it would be more difficult to deal with the Tianhan army on the frontal battlefield. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
However, the destruction of the artillery unit also gave the death squad a good opportunity, and they took advantage of this gap and rushed over with explosives bags.
The sudden emergence of the enemy army made the Tianhan soldiers in the bunker feel tricky, and because of the proximity, the members of these death squads were quickly able to rush to the dead corner of the bunker.
This is also a fatal flaw of the bunker, in order to focus on defense, only a triangular opening is left, and there is almost no way to see the blind spots.
The members of the death squad rushed to the bunker and then threw the explosive bag through the triangle.
The sound of an explosion then came, and it was a miracle that the Tianhan soldiers inside survived by detonating the explosive bag in such a small space.
The firing point of a pillbox was destroyed in this way, but not all the members of the death squad were as smooth as these people.
In order to defend against the attack of the death squads, the Tianhan soldiers stationed in the bunker did not save bullets, and shot out one by one, causing very large losses to the death squads.
On average, only 1 out of 10 people can rush to the bunker, but even 1 person can pose a great threat to the bunker.
The death squads were almost completely annihilated, causing great losses to the defense line of the Tianhan Kingdom in Pingxian.
Even if the Tianhan National Army can play a 1-4 and 1-5 record, they can't afford to spend it, and it is impossible to recapture the lost position.
The defeat was predictable, after all, the incoming Osian army had too many troops and isolated them.
The morale of the two brigades stationed in Pingxian also became low, they were not ruthless war machines, and it was very difficult to have fighting spirit when they knew that they would be defeated.
The situation was already unfavorable, morale was low again, and the two brigades became precarious.
However, they did not want to surrender, and in the confrontation just now, they killed at least nearly thousands of soldiers of the Oss Kingdom.
Even if there is no enmity between the two sides, they are still deeply enmity, and if they surrender, there will be absolutely no good fruit to eat.
Although the Tianhan Kingdom also said that the prisoners were treated preferentially, there was also a premise, and every time the Tianhan Army defeated the enemy army to the ground, it did not suffer any losses, and the soldiers did not object to this slogan.
But there is also a shady scene in it, if the enemy army causes too much loss to the Tianhan army before surrendering, the Tianhan army will give them preferential treatment verbally, but secretly it is not necessarily......
The commanders of the two brigades stationed in Pingxian obviously knew this, and they did not want to give their lives to others, and the resistance was the fiercest.
You know, they still have a chance, the telegram has been sent, and there will be reinforcements soon, as long as they hold out until the reinforcements arrive, that's another situation.
This is also the last hope to support the Tianhan soldiers stationed in Pingxian.
Time passed, and the fortified defensive line built by the two brigades in Binh Xian was destroyed, and they also suffered more than 2,000 casualties, while the Oss Kingdom suffered nearly 7,000 or 8,000 casualties.
With such a battle loss ratio, these two brigades should be in an advantageous position, but things are completely opposite, they are all compressed to Pingxian Town, and they can only organize a new defense line to resist the Oss Kingdom army.
Not only that, after such a long period of high-intensity fighting, the Tianhan soldiers were already tired, and the army of the Oss Kingdom still had many reserves that had not been played.
In this way, even if it is consumed, it can also consume the two brigades of the Tianhan National Army stationed in Pingxian.
Of course, this is not the best way to attack the commander of the army of the Kingdom of Os, and it is helpless to adopt this tactic now.
After only two days, Pingxian fell into the hands of the Oss Kingdom, during which the Tianhan Kingdom sent troops to reinforce it.
But the troops were not many, and they were stopped outside Pingxian by the 4 light infantry regiments of the Oss Kingdom, and they could only watch the two brigades inside Pingxian being besieged, and in the end there were only a few battalions and less than a thousand people escaped.
For this reason, the casualties of the Oss Kingdom are as high as nearly 10,000 people, you must know that they use 4 legions to fight two brigades, it is conceivable that if the strength of the Tianhan army is the same as them, or only half, it will be another result.
After capturing Pingxian, the Oss Kingdom began to build a defensive line and occupy Pingxian for as much time as possible.
Their behavior has caused a lot of trouble to the armored army of the Tianhan Kingdom on the front line, there is no fuel, and the tanks all have to lie on their stomachs.
Moreover, the army of the Oss Kingdom occupied Pingxian, an important transit point, which dealt a certain blow to the morale of the Tianhan army.
At the same time, it also improved the morale of its own soldiers, broke the myth of the invincibility of the Tianhan army, and made a great contribution to resisting the aggression of Tianhan imperialism.
In addition to these, the victory of the Oss Kingdom in the Battle of Pingxian also brought some confidence to the other three allies, and the negotiations that were originally pulled were quickly settled.
A day later, the Kingdom of Dili, the Kingdom of Yisha, and the Gulf States formally formed an anti-imperialist alliance and sent troops to help the Kingdom of Oss resist the invasion of the Tianhan Empire.
This also meant that the anti-imperialist alliance had completely broken with the Tianhan Kingdom, and trade between the two sides was soon cut off, and the situation became tense.
However, they didn't know that the defeat in the Battle of Pingxian made General Huang, the supreme commander of the army of the Tianhan Kingdom, very angry.
Originally, he confidently assured His Majesty the Emperor that he could win one battle after another perfectly, but he didn't expect to ignore a group army of the Oss Kingdom and let them sneak attack his logistics.
Such a big mistake is undeniably his problem.
The yellow general, who is not very good-tempered, is ready to implement the offensive plan in advance to make up for his mistakes.
The airfield, which had been being built in secret, did not flinch as much as before, and simply found a suitable plain and a bright front.
In order to speed up the progress, workers are also hired from the local area, and the high salaries make it impossible for them to refuse.
The national consciousness of the Oss Kingdom has not yet awakened, and as long as they come up with enough benefits, they are still happy to take refuge.
The construction of the improvised airfield was quickly completed, which also meant that the Tianhan Kingdom could now use the air force to support the army.
And the first battle that the Air Force needs to fight first is still meek, which is named by General Huang, in order to be ashamed.
The nearby Tianhan National Army was also gathered, adding up to several light infantry regiments and 3 mechanized infantry brigades, with a strength of more than 10,000 people, and a bomber squadron to support.
There are less than 20,000 people left in the army of the Oss Kingdom in Pingxian, and they are still alone and have no logistics, and the Tianhan National Army still has to use so many troops and air forces, it can be imagined that they are really angry.
