Chapter 225. The timeline that was changed
This is a battlefield where there is no right or wrong, and there will be no psychological burden at all except life and death. Because everyone knows that if you don't kill the enemy on the other side, then the enemy on the other side will not spare your life either. Just a cold, less than a dollar bullet cost can easily take away a soul that has been growing on the earth for twenty or thirty years, this is a sure-fire deal, and for these veterans who have long understood the real battlefield, it is worth doing.
The same was true of the Soviets, who cautiously groped their way forward, and any unusual situation would cause them to fall into the muddy water beneath them without hesitation. Surrounded by the corpses of the Canadian soldiers who had been destroyed, the strong smell of blood was washing away with the rain all over the hillside, but this group of Soviet soldiers did not have any expression of disgust, just looked up vigilantly at the top of the hillside in front of them, and cautiously looked at the defensive bunker that had just burst out with strong firepower.
At the top of the hill behind him, the Soviet-standard heavy machine guns had also been erected in the shadows, covered by waterproof tarpaulins, and it seemed that inside these bulges, there were equally deadly heavy machine gun positions. However, the heavy machine guns separated by more than 500 meters did not actually cause much effective fire suppression, and the rain curtain formed by the pouring rain had obscured most of the visible sight distance, and the narrow shooting holes of the defensive pillboxes in the distance could not be easily suppressed by their firepower.
In fact, the Soviet forces that appeared on the current scale had all been mobilized, and the company-level offensive sequence had been prepared, just like the Canadians before them. After the Canadians' attack, they could guess that the defensive bunkers at the top of the hillside were now absolutely heavily guarded, but they did not attack immediately, but carefully wiped forward, as if preparing to lurk in the mud and the corpse on the hillside under the cover of heavy rain.
Although the Canadian offensive was a complete failure, and even all the Canadian troops had collapsed due to heavy casualties, the corpses left on the hillside still gave the Soviets some cover. At least they wore almost similar army-green camouflage raincoats, and when they lay down in the muddy water, like the Canadian corpses lying around them, if they made up their minds to lurk, they would complement each other even better.
According to the original plan, the tactics of this group of Soviet soldiers were absolutely effective. But they completely underestimated the Marines in the cave base. Behind the narrow shooting hole, the young men of the Marine Corps did not relax in the slightest, but checked all the light and heavy machine guns in their hands one after another, and according to the order from the communicator, they looked coldly at the humanoid objects in the rain curtain in the hillside below.
They knew that those were the remaining enemies, but they didn't open fire directly, and the orders from their superiors were to keep them quiet, as if they hadn't noticed the enemy's movements. However, their vigilance was not to let the enemy approach slowly, the machine guns in their hands had also been aimed at the several enemy teams that were gradually getting closer and closer to their side, and in this pouring rain, they could not see the specific appearance of the enemy, and only by vague positions, they could also pour out the fire of the machine guns in their hands completely!
Even the potholes in the cave base are still on alert, also waiting for orders from Liszt's direct subordinates. The Type 92 infantry gun and the 37mm battle defense gun were all aimed at the position with the largest number of enemies in front of them, and Zhu Yuan, who had already been adjusted, also slowly adjusted the muzzle height with the instructions in the artillery's exclusive communicator, and also adjusted the position of the enemy's cluster.
"They're not the only enemies, and it's not them that I'm waiting for."
In the defensive bunker at the top of Cave No. 5, Liszt's eyes had narrowed slightly, and the faint stream of data flickered with his eyes, and the advance of Soviet soldiers in the rain curtain and dim environment had clearly appeared on his retina. He could clearly see the appearance of those Soviet soldiers, but his eyes swept slightly to the dark hills in the distance, and said slowly as if to himself: "But will you come?" ”
In Liszt's view, the three regiments of Canadian troops were nothing more than cannon fodder for detecting the distribution of fire in his current base, and even the elite Soviet infantry of these two regiments were honestly just high-level cannon fodder for camouflage. If what he expected, if there were really people who wanted to wipe them out of the mountains in the midst of this dense fish, then this should be the time to appear.
Everyone was waiting, and instead of attacking, the Soviets were lurking in the pouring rain. Liszt was also waiting, he did not order the troops to launch a fire attack, even if he had already mastered the distribution area of the Soviets' attack. Except for the pouring rain, the thick clouds were still dim and daylight, and the whole mountain fell into some kind of eerie tranquility, but it waited like a demon of hell to devour the living.
In the corner of the defensive bunker, a young Marine soldier quickly climbed up the stairs, swept past his comrades with heavy machine guns, but his eyes were directly aimed at Liszt, and he gasped a few deeply, he stood up and stood in the first bunker, walked over quickly and reported loudly to Liszt: "The Western Frontier Defensive Bunker has discovered new enemy troops, and has begun to deploy along the hills on the left and right!" ”
"Are you coming?"
Liszt's brow raised slightly, and a certain loneliness also appeared in the center of his eyebrows. However, he did not pause in his movements, and came to the specially opened lookout, holding the high-powered military telescope in both hands, and looking through the vague rain curtain at the dim hilly area more than two thousand meters away. Although ordinary people can't see it clearly, as the data stream flickered, a drop of rain had disappeared on his retina, and his eyes looked at the clearer and clearer hills, and his face became more and more gloomy: "Convey the order, all personnel are ready to fight." ”
The Marines behind him were slightly startled, but they also quickly responded in unison, and they all turned around and rushed towards their respective locations. The entire cave base was transformed into a war beast again, and with Liszt's order, it opened its bloody mouth, stared at the scarlet eyes, and looked at the enemies that appeared in front of it one by one, ready for a terrifying slaughter. With a complete fortification, they could deal with a group of infantry with few heavy weapons, but they didn't have much to fear.
The concealment effect of this heavy rain was good, but it also limited the movement of enemy air forces, and if even helicopter gunships, which pose a slight threat to the fortifications, were not dispatched, then a group of light infantry wanted to attack the defensive pillboxes directly, which would be a joke. This was already illustrated by the Canadians' rendition, and even the corpses strewn across the hillside, and the red blood and water, proved the ease of harvesting the lives of the light infantry.
But there was still not much smile on Liszt's face, because he could see it far better than the young Marines beside him. On the hill in the distance, huge objects were slowly moving along the undulations of the hill towards them. The dim light and dense rain curtain could not obscure Liszt's gaze, and the shape of the huge objects, as well as the star-striped banner that appeared on his chest, also made Liszt's face gradually gloomy.
"Anchorage Line."
Slowly exhaling, Liszt's eyes became more and more complicated. Of course he knew the Star-Spangled Banner and its peculiar pattern, as it had been the insignia of the troops he had served on the Anchorage Line. And the huge humanoid object, which he had seen in the town, was like the primitive power armor of a humanoid tracked tank. This is something that only the Anchorage Line can have, because only this important line of defense, which is used to defend against the terrifying torrent of steel of the Soviet Union, will be equipped with the most advanced weapons of the United States Federation!
But the corners of Liszt's mouth also faintly pursed a helpless smile, but this smile did not have the slightest smile. His eyes were already very heavy, because on this battlefield of life and death, there was nothing to be nostalgic for. Liszt gritted his teeth slowly, and the burly and strong body of old Bunnard suddenly appeared in his mind, which made him a little incredulous, and he couldn't help but clench his fists tightly: "The collapse of the Anchorage Line, is this it?" ”
The game setting of the radiation in the previous life, the Anchorage Line, which was heavily invested by the United States Federation, did not play any role at all, and was bulldozed and wiped out by the steel torrent of the Soviets. But the question that has always plagued Liszt and the vast number of data parties in his previous life, why the Anchorage defense line collapsed so easily, has also given Liszt an answer here. If it weren't for the defection of the commander at the top, or the complete relinquishment of command authority, then even if it was a strong pillbox defense, how could it not be easily overcome?!
"History has really changed."
Liszt took a deep breath, his back molars already clenched. Because when he saw that the original model of power armor was beginning to prepare for their attack, he also thought of the timeline of his previous life. But as a traverser, the butterfly effect set off by him finally made the timeline of this world chaotic, and the big events that he could once know when would occur have also become unrecognizable because of his series of actions!
