Chapter 62: Changes in the Battlefield (2)

On the morning of the same day, the commander of the Antanian side stationed in this doomed position was deprived of command with satisfaction, and at the same time looked with envy at the changed troops. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

They had already discovered the movement of Germania, and this place was the opponent's point of attack, and the other party did not hide this in the slightest. Both sides knew that Antania was incapable of stopping, and since they had been equipped with that strange gunpowder weapon and a new type of explosive throwing weapon, Antania's improvised defensive positions could no longer stop the Germanian soldiers.

All they could do was stick to their duties and struggle in vain, and finally collapse under the mocking gaze of the other party. It's difficult to defend, let alone attack, and being put down on the way to charge like being hit by someone, this kind of death is very wretched!

The commander, who was full of tragedy and was preparing to die for his country, received a strange order last night, "Order your entire army to quietly withdraw from the defensive line, and leave this section of the position to someone else to take over." "If he hadn't been sure that it was an order from Marshal Bradley himself, he would have suspected that it was a Germania spy who was forging a false order.

I don't understand it, the order still has to be carried out, but the mood of the soldiers below is a little big. He understood the soldier's emotions, but the military order was difficult to disobey, and the commander could only lead the guards to gag the most troublesome people and carry them to the rear, and repeatedly emphasized that this was not to abandon the defense line and escape, there were arrangements from above, and he didn't know how to make arrangements.

It took a lot of effort to appease the soldiers under his command, although they were a little aggrieved but their morale was available, which was the only consolation, and they still had the courage and determination to fight. Quietly withdrew, and when the commander thought it was a disguised evacuation order, the change of guard force really came!

After seeing the equipment of the newly arrived troops, the tragic feelings in the hearts of the commanders disappeared, and they not only had the courage to fight, but now they also had the confidence to fight. The slender body of the gun carried by the soldier on his back was very similar to the captured Mauser rifle, and the big guy carried by several people was undoubtedly the terrifying weapon of Germania that fired projectiles continuously!

Seeing that this fully equipped unit took over his defensive line, the commander gathered his men armed with Mauser rifles and asked to rejoin the battle, since the opponent beat them with the changed Mauser, his men have tried to get one of these rifles on the battlefield, but the ammunition is a bit of a problem.

Without the right to command, the former commander didn't care, he happily took his subordinates to squat in the trenches, looking at the friendly troops who had changed their clothes next to him, the commander was about to drool with envy at this time, although he didn't know how they got so many new weapons, but there was no doubt that this time the Germania puppies couldn't be arrogant!

The erection of heavy machine guns, the soldiers crouching in the trenches with Lee Enfield in hand, and the figure with a special marksman armband, the former commander had no doubt about the outcome of the battle, the only question was when they would be able to get the same weapons. The information he learned from the idle talk with the friendly forces just now summed up as follows: these equipment with a fast rate of fire and a large ammunition capacity can compete with the opponent's Mauser, Germania's equipment advantage is gone, and the new manufacturing line put into production in the rear arsenal will gradually meet the needs of all troops.

Listening to the faint voices from the other side in the trenches, this time you can't be arrogant. The first to achieve the results is the top shooter, one bullet and one life, and it stops after one round, which is a bit unpleasant! But everyone obeyed the order to "put them close and fight again." ”

As time passed, everyone tightened their grips on their guns and looked at the commander who was watching at the lookout post. As the commander's raised arms fell, everyone got up at the same time, set up their guns, aimed, and fired!

There was no noise, only the whistling of bullets, the pull of the bolt and the sound of cartridge casings falling to the ground. The good training in the past allowed them to shoot a neat row of guns, and with the roar of heavy machine guns, the Germanians in front of the position were knocked down in rows like wheat harvesting!

…………………………………………………………

"Lying ~ down ~~" Ron heard the abnormal sound, and the conditioned reflex generally fell to the ground, while not forgetting to remind the comrades around him.

However, it was a step too late, and tongues of fire erupted from the Antanian position, accompanied by a neat row of guns, and deadly projectiles rushed towards Ron and them. Before most people could react, a few blood flowers burst out of their bodies, and some were even torn!

Scattered pieces of fallen comrades, the smell of blood that permeated, and the fresh stumps and severed arms, panic inevitably spread, and the screams and howls of panic all around obscured the commander's orders, thus further aggravating the death toll.

At this time, the screams from the air made their situation worse, and the opponent's artillery joined the battle, and the large-caliber steam shells smashed in front of the position in Antania with a whistle, and the high-temperature steam instantly killed the personnel at the center of the explosion, and by the way, left terrifying burns to the people around them, and the bullet casings were no less effective than the machine guns.

The first thing Ron heard when he heard the scream was to gather himself up to minimize the chance of being injured, and after the first round of shelling, Ron ignored the pain in his back, braved the fierce fire of the opponent, got up and rolled and hid in the nearest crater.

There was still the heat of embers in the crater, and he was hit by shrapnel in the back, and Ron didn't care about that, now he could live a little longer. At this time, you can't stick your head out, the opponent's firepower is too fierce! Nestled in a crater, Ron was suffering from back pain and heat burns, and he now had too many questions about how the Antanians got their hands on these weapons!

Reach out and hook the Mauser on the side of the crater, Ron's rifle just now I don't know where it was lost, check it, it's still usable. Only by counterattacking can there be a way to live, otherwise this group of attacking troops will all die here!

Just as he was about to poke his head out and aim, the shock wave of a cannonball that exploded nearby shook Ron, his ears suddenly lost the ability to hear, and everything he saw was in slow motion, and everything was like a color movie in Ron's eyes in the silent film era.

The man rolling on the ground with his arms crossed was known to Ron, the recruit who had complained about the food this morning. I couldn't hear the sound, but I knew by looking at his big mouth and bulging eyeballs that he was worse than dead at this moment!

Looking at the recruit's bloody arm again, Ron knew that this person was hopeless, even if he was dragged off the battlefield now, it was useless, the infection caused by severe burns was fatal enough, Ron didn't think that this kind of recruit could be treated like an officer, even if it was an officer, such an injury was mysterious enough.

At this time, a person also rolled into the crater, and with his arrival, Ron's hearing was partially restored, he was a veteran of the company next door, he enlisted a year later than Ron, and the people who enlisted with Ron back then are now the only one left, and there may not be one left after today.

"We've got to kill that heavy!" The man spoke, watching Ron frown and pluck his ears, and he repeated it out loud.

Ron stuck his head out and glanced at it, then quickly retracted it, and just like that, a few bullets chased after him, and a split second was enough. Ron nodded in agreement, reacting from the initial panic to find that the other party was a newbie.

Without a dedicated machine gun emplacement, the improvised sandbags were obviously not effective in protecting the machine gunners, and the machine guns were not reasonably arranged, and if it weren't for their riflemen to make up for these shortcomings, Ron's side would not have fought so hard.

"Damn it! How can their rifles fire so fast! Ron cursed, they couldn't lift their heads when they were hit by rounds of platoon guns, and there was no such effect when using Mauser to shoot platoon guns, was it a new gun type?

After an initial period of panic, the veterans began to take shape, leading the survivors to hide behind cover and look for an opportunity to fight back. Since gunpowder weapons were used earlier than Antanya, they knew more about the performance of these weapons, and more actual combat meant more experience, although it was not known where Antania got this batch of similar things, but this did not prevent the Germanian veterans from quickly finding a way to counterattack.

There's no solution to the artillery bombardment right now, but their slow rate of fire gives Ron a little respite and takes out their machine guns first, which is the biggest threat! Having experienced the power of machine guns, many people invariably aimed their guns at those positions that were frantically spitting flames, suppressing the enemy's firepower, and dragging them to the arrival of reinforcements, and they had a turnaround.
