697 Battle of Augusta (8)

At noon, the sun was blazing. (Full text reading, all in. (.i. Want. Wen. Learning Network)

The dog placed five grenades in his hand, then pressed an American Springfield rifle and leaned into the trench, and then checked his magazine, and there were 21 more, or 105 rounds.

"If you kill one of the three bullets, there will be more than 30 of them, which is enough to promote yourself to corporal, right?" The dog thought about it, and suddenly felt that the sergeant was not enjoyable, and decided to storm the sergeant, so he went to find 12 mortar shells for the American army.

Since China has been equipped with mortars, all countries have successively equipped some, and the United States has a lot of money and pirates China, so naturally it will not let it go, but the amount of equipment they are not large, and it is a strange 47 mm caliber, and the ammunition power cannot be compared with the domestic 60 mm, not to mention the 120 mm large mortars that are equipped.

Because Yanta took it very quickly, and captured a lot of materials and ammunition, there were more than 10,000 of these 47mm mortar shells alone, but because of the different systems, most of the ammunition could not be used alone, and these shells could only be distributed to the infantry as grenades to supplement them, except for some of the captured guns.

Mortar shells as grenades?

Yes.

Mortar shells are tail trigger fuses, but to be used as grenades, they need a steel plate or hard object to help.

The dog stuck his sapper shovel in the edge of the trench, so that when it was time to use it, he could quickly throw it without being a rotten egg because it was not triggered, as long as he grabbed the cannonball and hit the bottom fuse on the sapper shovel.

Whether you can become a good soldier or not, in addition to the basics of being in good health, shooting accurately, running well, and not afraid of death, you also need to test your ability to adapt to emergencies, such as using mortar shells as grenades, that is, the life and death experience that the company commander brought back from the battlefield.

After all this was done, the dog took a dagger to pry open the can, and ate the beef, to say that being a soldier is actually quite good, at least in previous years, it was rare to eat beef at home a few times, but here you can eat it every day.

"Dogs, what are they doing?" A large head poked over to the dog, pointing to the sappers who were digging in the ground in the distance, and asked.

"Stupid." The dog glared at his fellow comrades-in-arms, and was really speechless at this guy who only had horizontal meat left but lacked roots, and said while munching on the beef: "There are so many captured shells, the artillery can't use them, so naturally they have to be used as mines." ”

"Shell mines?"

"Yes, bury the mine underneath, put a few shells on it, and when the mine explodes, the shells will be swept in together, and the power is much greater, even if the tank encounters it, it can only die!"

Hiss.......

The big-headed partner scratched his head and said with a sneer: "Good way, why didn't I think of it?" ”

"That's because you fucking became a soldier just to see foreign ass pussy!" The dog smiled and said that his fellow comrade-in-arms was really unambitious, and it was said that he joined the army because he heard that he would see a lot of foreign girls after fighting with foreigners, so he came.

"Hey......." The big head touched a few sparse beards, and said with a wicked smile: "Brother dog, in fact, foreign girls are like this." ”

"Hmph, don't do this in the future, don't blame me for not reminding you, that's going to be shot!" The dog heard his treacherous laughter, that I didn't know that this guy stayed in a room with a few bastards for more than half an hour yesterday when he was cleaning up, and then a few gunshots rang out, he definitely didn't do anything good, because he was a fellow villager, he still solemnly reminded: "Brother didn't mean you, don't do this thing in the future, the military regulations are written strictly, if you are caught doing this, you will be shot, the last time the 22nd Division opened the road, more than a dozen people were shot, so you ......." ”

"Brother dog, don't worry, we won't do it." The big head hurriedly nodded weakly, seeing that the dog's face was a little better, he said with a smile: "Actually, now that I think about it, that is the smell, and it is not as comfortable as the third sister on the street corner." ”

"It's your dog brother, you even know this method of laying mines, I think you will become a company commander sooner or later." The big head hurriedly patted his ass.

The dog smiled, his big wish in this generation is to be quite a company commander, and he was embarrassed to scratch his head when he was told to break it: "Come on, when you are not a company commander, let's talk about it later, let's pass this level first." ”

"Brother dog, I heard that tens of thousands of people are coming this time?"

"Tens of thousands?" The dog pointed to the position he had set up like a small ammunition depot, and said contemptuously: "Tens of thousands, do I need to exert so much effort?" Let me tell you, this time you have to brace your spirits, because I just heard the regiment commander say that our main force has already won, and hundreds of thousands of defeated soldiers are rushing to our side! ”

"Hundreds of thousands!"

The big heads jumped up, there are 3 infantry divisions on their side, but 60,000 people, plus less than 80,000 armored divisions, and there are actually less than 50,000 in the defensive trenches, but the width of the defense of the frontal trenches has reached 23 kilometers, not to mention that the boundary here is narrow in the west and wide in the east, except for a few mountain packs, there is no particularly dangerous place to hold, that is to say, hundreds of thousands of remnants will come from the flat northwest side, plus the enemy reinforcements that may come from the southeast side, that is not ....... ※※※※※ I ※ I ※ ※

"Do you think we're surrounded?" The dog smiled slightly, threw away the empty canned food box, and said: "This is called flowering in the middle, and then wait until our main force chases over, what do you think will happen!?" ”

", I always say that I'm holding ammunition in my arms, I don't know the feelings, no, I'm going to find more supplements." Hearing this, no matter how idiotic the big head is, he knows the danger, what a foreign girl, let's pass this off.

The dog didn't pull his head, but helped him to get a lot of the captured ammunition, until he set up a small ammunition depot and stopped to smoke a cigarette.

The two of them were also in a rut, they were guarding the outpost position, which was similar to the support point of the protruding part of the trench, and it was easy to be besieged, but the smoke had just circled in the mouths of the two, and the rapid horn sound had already sounded, and the two immediately threw away the cigarette butts and jumped up like rabbits.

Lying on the edge of the trench and looking over, I saw that air force planes had already appeared in the sky, and there was a continuous explosion like muffled thunder under the horizon.

"Holy shit, here!"

The big head and the dog pulled the bolt of their guns, checked their ammunition again, smiled at each other, and quickly crawled to the side of the trench, aiming their crosshairs ahead.

The explosion kicked off the Yanta sniper battle, and after half an hour, the plane began to return, and a black line suddenly appeared on the horizon, and countless horses and trucks galloped towards the small Yanta town.

Thundered.......

The heavy artillery clusters arranged in the rear opened fire, one shell after another stirred up sand and dust, and the continuous fire balls expanded in the distance, and groups of war horses were overturned, and trucks were blown up.

But this did not seem to be enough to deter the enemy, and countless enemy troops began to rush on foot towards the position where the dogs held their hands.

"No matter what the cost, we must take and open the Yanta, otherwise we will all die here!" Major General Jim was already ruthless, his red eyes looked at the officer in front of him like a hungry wolf, this was the only way home, there were hundreds of tanks and armored vehicles chasing behind, the sky was a paradise for the enemy, if you want to escape this, you must quickly return to South Wales through Yanta, and continue to fight the enemy with its vast territory.

As if Major General Jim's order had worked, or perhaps the only remaining belief in escape was in its hands, tens of thousands of coalition soldiers lined up in a dense formation and began to charge.

"Brother dog, this is ......." Seeing this dense formation in the distance, the big head swallowed saliva, what kind of tactic is this?

"It's nothing, big American idiot, play intensive charge in front of multiple layers of fire, wait for death!" The dog shouted, aimed the crosshair at the US troops in front, and secretly sneered in his heart, saying that the Yankees would not fight, and sure enough, even Europe began to stop playing intensive charges, but I didn't expect the Yankees to use this to tear apart the defense line!

"Mortar, shoot quickly!"

Amid the shouting, the mortars arranged not far behind the positions opened fire, and dozens of 60-mm and several captured 47-mm mortars constantly threw black dots into the sky.

The shells drew a beautiful arc and landed in the shape of the charging American troops, and wave after wave of soldiers died under the explosion, and they seemed to be frightened by such dense artillery fire, and the charging American troops began to slowly become scattered, and many people also began to learn from the Chinese soldiers, and the cat ran with their waists in a zigzag.

"Fire!"

At the same time as the loud shouting, the big head only saw that the two captured Makqin machine guns behind him suddenly neighed, and the dense bullets never stopped for a moment, no wonder the army had a call to re-equip this heavy water-cooled machine gun, it was really terrifying.

In the shrill sound of hissing tarpaulin, large swaths of the British and American forces were torn apart, and in less than half a minute, a huge gap appeared in front of them, and the corpses all over the ground could not even be put together.

At this time, the dog and the big head knew why the military newspaper always said that tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people would die in a small battle on the European battlefield, and in Europe, where there was insufficient depth and a large number of tanks as an assault force, it was nothing to fight trench warfare like this, and 1.8 million people would die.

After knocking down the guy who was close with a shot, he suddenly heard the gunshots of the big head next to him, turned his head to see that the big head pulled the trigger deadly, and immediately shouted: "Big head, you are crazy, do you want to live if you beat you like this?" ”

"What's wrong!" With a few bullets chirping on the sand at the edge of the trench, and the sound of explosions and firing in the ears, the big heads had to shout loudly to communicate.

"At the beginning, you fought like this, and it didn't play at night!" The dog pointed out the problem and pointed to the bullet next to him: "Pay attention to saving, aim and hit again!" ”

"Okay, got it!" The big head who was awakened was also startled, and found that he had knocked out 3 magazines in such a short time, and the enemy had not killed a few, but a lot of ammunition was consumed, and it couldn't last long if it went on like this.

Just when he was in a hurry, 10 Cheetah tanks quickly rushed out from behind, and these big guys rushed into the enemy formation in the blink of an eye, 2 machine guns and rapid-fire guns fired non-stop, and the crushed corpses under the tracks were countless.

With such a strong firepower, the British and American forces finally couldn't stand it, and the first wave of the charge lasted less than 40 minutes before it ended hastily, and by the time the tanks began to return, the corpses in front of the trenches had been piled up into a hill.

Some of the soldiers began to step out of the trenches to refill the wounded enemy soldiers, and at the same time, they also began to take advantage of the intervals to speed up the collection of ammunition, and everyone knew that this was only a small test, and then a big test.

In the sky, an albatross transport plane kept circling, Zhao Long and Huang Fuqi in the cabin holding the telescope were also solemn, although the sudden forward position where the dog was located was suspended, but in front of the other positions there were still dense British and American coalition troops, in the nearly 20 kilometers wide defensive line, at least more than 50,000 enemy troops were repeatedly attacking the front.

"This can't be done, this is the first batch, the main force behind is about to arrive, and the pressure will be very high!"

"Yes, in addition to the main force fleeing, the reconnaissance plane also found three divisions coming from the east and south, Wu Peifu They have been completely surrounded, and the difficulty now is that Wu Peifu must also arrange the armored division on both flanks to ensure that the enemy does not escape by a detour, after all, this place is too wide, so just now I have ordered all the three divisions of the air force to be dispatched to bomb in a layer-by-layer interception way, from the perspective of time, tonight will be the key."

"Supporting 37 and 51 infantry divisions?" Zhao Long turned his head, put down the binoculars, and asked with his gaze returning to the map.

"There are still 180 kilometers left, the infantry can arrive at 2 o'clock in the morning at the latest, and our main force is now temporarily blocked by the five infantry divisions they have arranged, and it is expected to break through until 5 o'clock in the afternoon."

"Afternoon." Zhao Long looked at his watch, it was already 3 o'clock, and after breaking through in the evening, at least more than 200,000 enemy troops could gather here, and the pressure on Tayang's defense line could be imagined!

"Tell the 3rd Air Division that all the planes and airships that can fight must be sent here, and the Yanta must be saved." Zhao Long gritted his teeth and ordered: "Send a telegram to Wu Peifu, no matter what, you must keep it until noon tomorrow!" ”

"Yes."

Amid the humming sound of propellers, the second wave of the Australian coalition charge began again, and this time the enemy learned to be obedient, not only pulling the few remaining artillery to open the way, but also pulling the defensive line very wide, so that the ammunition consumption soared several times more.

A moment later, dozens of small Ford tanks suddenly appeared on the horizon, followed by thousands of cavalry, which made Zhao Long and everyone's faces change suddenly.

Cavalry assault!

"Cavalry!"

When the siren sounded, tens of thousands of Australian cavalry launched an attack, although not as powerful and intimidating as the Cossack cavalry, but such a long line, the cavalry assault threat was still very large.

In particular, there are dozens of small Ford tanks, and although these 3-ton little ones are not as powerful as St. Chamont, the machine guns on them can still pose a great threat to the infantry.

The shells kept falling, but the 20-kilometer-long defensive line still seemed much sparse, and the only way to stop the cavalry was to rely on machine guns and the infantry themselves.

"Grandma!"

The dog was reluctant to use a grenade, grabbed a mortar shell, knocked it hard, and threw it out violently, the shell exploded not far from a cavalryman, but the swept sand only slowed him down, the power of the American mortar shell was too small!

"Boom!"

Just as the dog was scolding, this unlucky guy stepped on a mine, and several 57-mm shells exploded at the same time, which was more powerful than a 152-mm heavy gun, and blew this guy away on the spot, and even the war horse fell to his knees with a scream.

"Look at your arrogance!"

The big head saw a slam on the sand next to him, and before he was happy, he suddenly felt something flash next to him.

"Big head be careful!"

The dog pounced on a hungry tiger and threw the big head next to him to the ground, and at the same time the big head finally saw clearly, a snowy saber could grub the dog's back and flew over, and the black war horse's hooves were in the air, and quickly rushed back over the trench.

"Brother dog, are you alright?" The big head was suddenly frightened into a cold sweat, he knew that if the dog hadn't pounced on him, this knife would definitely have cut his head, even if he had a helmet, he didn't dare to guarantee that he wouldn't be injured.

As soon as he thought of this, the corners of his mouth were crooked, and when he saw that the dog was fine, he immediately picked up his rifle and shot it at the guy's war horse for four shots in a row, until the war horse fell sharply in pain, and pointed the muzzle of the gun at the cavalry who was in the end.

Together, the two of them shot this guy with a series of shots, but when they turned around, their faces changed drastically, and they saw that many cavalry had already rushed over, and there were as many as a hundred horsemen.

Bullets continued to fire from the position, and the machine guns were hissing to the extreme, and even a few Lewis machine guns that had been used as replacements were added, but it was still a drop in the bucket.

"Damn, these guys are amazing!" In the angry shouting of the big head, one after another war horses quickly crossed over the dogs' heads, the swords were shining, and blood was splashed, but at this time, no matter how angry they were, they didn't dare to turn back and chase after them, because several Ford tanks had already appeared not far away.

"Machine gun!"

At the shouting, the 77mm machine guns on the three Ford tanks spewed out tongues of fire at the same time, and long flames swept over the edge of the trenches, and several soldiers were instantly torn to pieces.

"Tanks, where are our tanks!"

"Against the cavalry and the wings!" Hearing the big man's random shouting, the dog immediately pointed into the distance, only to see that hundreds of tanks and armored vehicles had been outflanked from both flanks, and the rest were dealing with the cavalry who had broken through the trenches.

Seeing that he couldn't raise his head when he was suppressed by the machine gun, the big head was also ruthless, and he threw a few grenades into his arms and shouted: "Cover me!" ”

The dog and the big head enlisted in the army at the same time, they are good friends, and naturally they know what this guy wants to do, and there is no time to think about the consequences at this time, so they have to shout: "Machine guns, all concentrated!" ”

In the dense rain of bullets, the big head jumped out of the trench violently, looking at his figure flashing left and right, everyone was sweating.

"Grandma!" Seeing that the machine gun of the Ford tank was turning, the big head scolded and opened a grenade, then rolled on the ground and fell down, shoving the grenade under the guy's stomach.

When he just got up and rushed towards the second car, he only heard a violent explosion suddenly coming from behind, and with the shock wave of the explosion, he once again threw himself on the ground and rolled more than ten meters away, and stuffed a grenade under the second Ford tank.

"I knew, I knew, this little fucking isn't a fuel-efficient lamp!"

Seeing that two Ford tanks in a row were enveloped in the flames, the dog and everyone shouted excitedly, and when the big head quickly ran back into the trench, there was a thunderous cheer.

But it didn't take long for this laughter to happen, and everyone's faces became nervous.

Under the graying sky, countless infantry poured out of the horizon.

You can't see the end at a glance!
