Chapter 1976: Siege (II)
"Boom, boom, boom......"
"Ah......h
"Ah......h
In just one second, there were 400* explosions, and the sound was absolutely shocking, and even the frequency of the ground shaking made people feel like they were lying on the piledriver.
At least ten little devils all died in the same way: they were blown into the air by the air wave of *, and as a result, in the process of rising, they were blown off by several * exploding shrapnel, either cutting off a certain 'part' on their bodies, or being directly split into five horses. This power, this result, is definitely a treatment that can only be 'enjoyed' in large-caliber shells of the mountain artillery level and above! Now, it has appeared with so many dense explosions concentrated in one second, and one can imagine how terrifying its resonance is.
Just these two batches*, no one can make specific statistics on how many little devils were killed and injured by the explosion.
However, looking down from the city wall, you can find two obviously irregular blood lines composed of blood stains and broken limbs, and even a lot of blood gas has been blown into the air and is slowly falling.
The originally clean air was suddenly filled with the smell of blood, and it also immediately reminded both sides that the battle had begun.
Then, before the little devil who could lie down stood up and fired back, he was greeted by a rain of bullets, plus the sound of * explosions that sounded from time to time.
The little devil is fierce, or rather, the commander of this little devil dares to be so arrogant, and the source of self-confidence is inseparable from the fighting willpower of his subordinates.
If it were someone with a slightly weaker willpower, and as soon as they came up, they encountered such a tragic explosion and a rain of bullets, I am afraid that the willpower would immediately drop to the minimum, and the morale would immediately collapse, and everyone's only thought was to turn around and flee. However, these little devils in front of them, although they knew that they were in a weak position, they still fought to the death and fought back desperately, and for this reason, they even used the corpses of their fallen comrades as a cover to fight back, which shows the tenacity of their will to fight, and it is no wonder that their commanders have such arrogance and self-confidence.
And as soon as the little devil artillery saw the appearance of the people of the assault regiment, they naturally accelerated the speed of bombing. Especially when he saw that his infantry attack was frustrated, the speed of this bomb was even faster, almost three times that of usual. Even, when you put the shell in the muzzle, you turn around and take the next shell, and you don't have to cover your ears to avoid it like you usually dodge.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
The little devil and the small steel cannon smashed on the city wall as if they didn't want money, and the first battalion of the assault regiment naturally inevitably suffered casualties.
However, relatively speaking, the casualty rate of the little devils below is much higher than that of a battalion, after all, the difficulty of the besieging side is definitely much greater than that of the defending side, especially at such a close distance.
And at this time, the supreme commander of the little devil was finally able to look at the commando regiment a little, although he still looked down on the assault regiment in his heart, but the stubborn counterattack of the assault regiment made him face the opponent somewhat squarely, but this kind of confrontation was based on his annoyance and anger. Yes, he thinks that this casualty, this resistance, is a personal humiliation to him, and even more so to the army he leads.
So, he directly turned this tactic, which was originally a tentative attack by a little devil in Liu Bing's opinion, into a decisive battle-like attack.
Subsequently, the cannons of the little devils bombarded in unison, and although the little devils would be injured by mistake on the south side, most of the shells flew over the city wall and shot behind the city wall...... In fact, the little devil thinks that it is very useful for a cannon cannonball to fly over the city wall and land a distance behind the city wall.
First of all, it can act as a deterrent. At the very least, it can also let the Tubalu people of the assault regiment, who don't even have artillery, see the power of mountain artillery - the supreme commander of the right army of the little devil doesn't know that in fact, in between, there are already three mountain cannons of the little devil, along with hundreds of shells, which have been captured by the assault group.
The second point is to use the same tactics used by Liu Bing, to use explosions to block reinforcements behind the city wall. Because the little devil thinks that the assault regiment must know that the south gate is the best place to attack the city, and it is also the only place where the troops can be deployed, especially the place where the little devil can give full play to the advantages of artillery fire, so behind this south city gate, a large number of reserves must be put and ready to support on the city wall at any time. And a cannonball, not to mention how many soldiers of the assault regiment can be killed, but at least it can blow up their positions and block their continuous transportation of soldiers and ammunition on the city walls.
Immediately, the little devil really put on a decisive posture, not only took out all the mountain artillery, small steel cannons, light and heavy machine guns, but even tanks and armored vehicles were sent to the field.
And the infantry was even more echeloned, under the cover of artillery fire, one after another, like a big wave.
And the little devils under the city wall finally erected more than a dozen ladders, and some little devils began to climb up...... This is probably the most bizarre part of this battle, obviously with strong firepower, even if the city wall is strong, it will not be able to withstand the continuous shelling of shells, and sooner or later it will have to be piled up by cannonballs and collapse. However, because of the previous arrogance of the supreme commander of the little devil, he couldn't wait for the artillery to collapse a section of the city wall and couldn't wait to attack, which caused it to be difficult to ride the tiger now, or to say that he couldn't lose this face. No, I don't want to retreat temporarily and then reorganize the attack, but just attack with all my might. That's it, the artillery is bombarded, but the city wall can't be blown up in a short time, and the little devils below can only rely on long ladders to climb up the city wall, so that the infantry will lose the most, and the ammunition consumption is also a huge pressure.
But, to be honest, the little devil really cares about ammunition consumption. Just because the little devil is rich, the ammunition itself is extremely sufficient, not to mention in the time of a big war, this preparation is naturally more sufficient.
According to the tactical deployment of the little devil in advance, the left army of the little devil is completely a firepower attraction point, and the right army, that is, the mechanized army in front of him, is the vanguard and focus of the attack, and the middle army is mainly responsible for transporting ammunition to the right army in addition to the middle army. Because in order to reach Sanqiao County as soon as possible, the mechanized troops naturally traveled lightly along the way, and only brought the amount of ammunition they needed.
Therefore, in terms of ammunition, the right army of the little devils really has no psychological burden, even if it is really exhausted at one time, they are not afraid, because in their imagination, the strength of the five or six thousand little devils in the middle army makes them unable to imagine that in this land, there is any armed force that they can pay attention to, let alone be dragged down. In other words, in their imagination, in a maximum of three hours, the arrival of the army in the middle lane, a sufficient amount of ammunition will naturally arrive.
Of course, at this time, the army of the little devil on the right, and even the army of the little devil on the middle lane, would never have dreamed that in another six or seven hours, half of the ammunition they imagined would be destroyed by the second company.
And no one knows what will happen in the next hour, so the little devil naturally does not worry about the consumption of ammunition, which is naturally more convenient and more rampant, and almost throws the ammunition on the city wall as if he didn't need money.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
"Bang, bang, bang......"
"Da! da! da......"
"Wow!Wow!Wow......"
Under such a dense fire attack, the first battalion immediately felt a huge pressure, not only the casualty rate skyrocketed, but even the stretcher team was a little caught off guard.
The battlements of the city wall were blown up and fell, along with weapons such as light and heavy machine guns, as well as the lives and remains of soldiers.
Fighters were constantly blown off the wall hill by shells, dropped off the wall, or torn apart directly in mid-air......
Screams, roars, shouts, and countless gunshots and explosions came and went, showing all living beings the cruel firefight of the human era......
Seeing that the attacks of the little devils are becoming more and more ferocious, and the artillery fire is becoming more and more sharp, when their own casualty rate is increasing, there are even little devils who have successfully climbed the city wall, and finally they are beaten to the death by the soldiers on the left and right, which can be regarded as temporarily blocking this opening, but with the strong attack of the little devils becoming more and more fierce, there are more and more loopholes like this on the city wall, next time? Can the little devils who climbed the city wall be beaten down like this? No one is sure......
However, what is strange is that in the face of increasing pressure, Liu Bing not only did not transfer the reserve company, but also asked the reserve to retreat fifty meters.
A soldier is a soldier, and a soldier takes obedience to orders as his duty!
Although Liu Bing's abnormal behavior is puzzling, Liu Bing himself never explains, but only strictly orders must be carried out, which makes the soldiers of the Fourth Company as a reserve angry, but under Liu Bing's strict orders, they still obey unconditionally.
However, the answer was soon revealed.
After a full hour and a half of fighting between the besieging sides, the sun had set, and after a maximum of half an hour, when it was about to get dark, the answer appeared.
With the extension of time, both sides are fighting to the death, the battle is naturally becoming more and more intense, many times, seeing that the little devil has climbed the city wall, and want to use the two-sided attack to beat the little devil hope is getting smaller and smaller, but when there are more and more little devils on the city wall, many soldiers choose to die with the little devil: holding a speed*, after pulling off the lead, rush directly to the gap where the little devil boarded.
Although many soldiers were killed by bullets on the way to the charge, unable to complete the last glory of life, however, their spirit inspired a group of latecomers, and more people chose to pull the sound * and charge while fighting, and in the boom, the gap that made the little devil rush to the city wall instantly became hell.
Of course, there are a few clever ones, just lie on the side and pretend to be dead, and when the little devil relaxes his vigilance here, he suddenly pulls the sound*, jumps up and rushes to the wall with the little devil in his arms......
In the face of this kind of behavior of countless heroes who died with the enemy one after another, the essence of Liu Bing's eyes was almost terrifying, but gritting his teeth, Liu Bing suddenly stood upright, saluted the city wall not far away, and slowly and firmly spit out a sentence - "Immediately implement the second phase of the defense plan." ”
"Toot ~!Toot ~!Toot ......"
The call to retreat suddenly sounded around the bloodstained and broken walls of the city, where the battle was fought everywhere.
