Chapter 15: The Wind Whisperer

[[[CP|W:848|H:480|A:L|U:http://file1.qidian.com/chapters/20144/17/3024026635333424106631250970633.jpg]]]] "Boom!!"

A cannonball fell, just hitting the light chariot parked at the mouth of the alley, and the ammunition in the chariot was ignited and exploded, blowing up several soldiers who used the chariot as a cover.

Two and a half hours after the offensive began, the offensive on the southern front, which had been quite smooth half an hour ago, suddenly jammed as if it had hit an iron plate.

The three infantry battalions and chariot units that crossed the river to the south bank met with stubborn resistance from the militia deployed in the city by the Gallia Army.

"Boom!!"

The sewer cover of the first underground tunnel was suddenly blown away, and dozens of Imperial soldiers and a chariot that opened the way along a street were blown to pieces.

That's what the militia sappers who planted bombs in the ground do.

"Knock!"

Two grenades were thrown out of the rubble and exploded in the formation of Imperial soldiers, and two Imperial soldiers were unable to dodge and their legs were blown off.

"Dada-da-da!!"

A hideous machine gun barrel suddenly stretched out from the direction of the counter of the abandoned clothing store, and large-caliber machine gun bullets rushed out, and a team of emperors who were lost at the corner of the street were strafed into a sieve.

The Gallia Army's counterattack had only just begun.

Gave up the opportunity for positional warfare on the Northern Front, abandoned the Reims River and the bridge.

It seems to be a stinky move, a stinky move, which makes the Galia army lose the stinky chess of two major natural dangers.

But a comparison of the characteristics of the two armies shows that there is a reason for this.

The heavy firepower of the emperor ** is too strong, to be precise, the heavy firepower of the fourth division is too strong.

The emperor has too much experience in positional warfare, while the Galia militia has too little experience in positional warfare.

In yesterday's battle, the emperor lost 1,000 people, while the loss of soldiers on the Galia side was as high as 1,500 people, although it includes those who were temporarily incapacitated due to injuries in the battle, but it is still a heart-wrenching number.

Even with the ultimate anti-artillery weapon of tunnels and the assistance of nearly 500 experienced soldiers of the Northern Army, the positional battle on the northern front still played a score of 3:2.

If Carl's purpose in this operation is only to hold on to Landobasa and wait for the retreat of the troops on the Eastern Front, then they can indeed continue to hold the high ground, but Carl's purpose is to annihilate the Sixth Division, then it is not enough to let the enemy's main force stay on the outer line for a long time, and they must be lured into the city.

Landobasa in the city was a decoy, luring the 6th Division to the bait.

To the south of the Reims River is the main urban area of Landobassa, with a large urban area and dense buildings.

Luring the enemy to the city and allowing the two armies to enter the city for street fighting, you can give full play to the terrain advantages of the Galia militia, and even the map of the city is not as stupid as the hillbilly.

And that's not what Carl is all about......

..................

"Division headquarters! Division headquarters! This is the 3rd Brigade of the 2nd Wing! We are met with stubborn resistance from the enemy in the south of the city! We are met with stubborn resistance from the enemy in the south of the city! We ask for support from the chariot troops!

"The division headquarters received, the three major teams, where is your position?"

"We ...... At...... What a map this is!"

Inside the city, the enemy did not know where his troops and even himself were.

"Squadron Leader! We have lost contact with the group! We are now surrounded by the enemy!"

"What?!How could it be?!How did the enemy make a detour behind us?!"

Within the city, the enemy did not know every alley and shortcut known to the Galia.

"Damn, damn it, where did the bullets come from?!......"

"Smack!" ”

Inside the city, the enemy did not know where the gunners of the Galia were hidden.

"Listen to my orders! Wait for the enemy's chariot troops to press the intersection and detonate again...... Three...... Two...... Explode together!"

"Boom!"

Inside the city, the enemy did not know that the bombs of the Gallian army were buried under the ruins and stones.

............

"Report to Your Excellency the Division Commander! The captain of the 1st Brigade was sniped by the enemy's snipers! The formation of the 3rd Brigade was disrupted by the enemy's interspersed and requested to suspend the attack and reorganize the troops!"

The enemy's advantage lies in the overall deployment of brigade-level units, while squads and groups are king in urban warfare.

............

"Dada-da-da!!"

"Hold on! The engineer troops hurry up and build fortifications! The enemy rays here are so good, we have all become targets!"

"Report to the captain! Most of the stones and things that can be used as cover here have been cleared, and it will be difficult for us to build fortifications comparable to those of the enemy in a short period of time!"

Moreover, the area of the bridgehead controlled by the enemy is also a pit carefully dug by Karl and his enemies.

"The Galians have cleared most of the fortifications and stones in the area that could be used as hiding points and bunkers, and to the south of the bridge is a clearing with a wide view, and we have no place to hide!"

"Then dig the trenches!"

"No way! It's all asphalt and concrete!"

The entire Lando Barcelona city has long been set up as a killing trap for the emperor, waiting for the emperor to drill into it.

Galia occupies a geographical advantage.

"Listen, everyone, this time no one in our team wants to overturn a god! Otherwise, don't tell me you're from Lando Barcelona!"

"Oh!!"

occupies the people

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

And it also occupies an absolute advantage of the time

"Order the 3rd Brigade to advance immediately to the Eastern Zone! Detour the frontal line of the Gallian Army from the flank - the headquarters of the 6th Division"

"Bluna, the Third Imperial Brigade will flank from the East! Get Carl ready!"

After the secret telegram sent by the headquarters of the Sixth Division of the Empire was broken, Ellen immediately told Bluna

"Carasti, the 3rd Enemy Brigade is ready to detour from the East, you are ready, the Enemy Brigade is on the 12th Sector!" (Rhinelander)"

"Roger! (Rhinelander)"

"Karl, a battalion of the enemy is preparing to make a detour to the front, and the radio of the enemy brigade has reached the twelfth district. ”

After receiving Carrasti's report, Karl picked up the phone in one hand

"Artillery Headquarters! The enemy is in the 12th district! Immediately open fire...... Is it the 32nd Squadron of the 12th Sector? At one point, a large group of Emperor ** will come over and set up machine guns and prepare to meet the enemy! I will contact the 30th, 31st, 33rd, and 34th squadrons in my friendly neighborhood to deal with you...... Hey, the 30th Squadron, immediately go to the 12th Sector to support ......"

"Headquarters! An enemy squadron is surrounded by two of our squadrons in the 8th District!

"Got it! I'll contact the 3rd and 4th Volunteer Squadrons of the 7th District!"

"Commander! The enemy's chariot troops have assaulted our 16th district! The brothers can't hold on!"

"Calm down, I'll contact the Independent Tank Squadron to support you......" "Wilkin, get all your cans moving!" Go to the Sixteenth District......"

The entire city of the Galia Army was connected by a network of telephone lines, and each squadron did not fight alone, but supported and assisted friendly forces with its own defense area as the core. The militia of Gallarondo BarΓ§a, who fought in their native city, were united by orders from the headquarters and under the command of Carl and Lilia.

With good communications and the overall command of the core, the problem of the militia's lack of leadership and experience in coordinated operations has been greatly reduced.

"Damn, where are we now?"

"It seems to be behind the 3rd Squadron!

"Then hurry up and catch up with the group!!

"Dada-da-da!"

"Report! Gallia Army spotted ahead!"

"What?!Isn't it the 3rd Squadron ahead?!"

"No! It's the Gallia Army! Your Excellency the Captain, we're surrounded!"

And the emperor who only distributed the radio station to the brigade level, the emperor who did not have the defense map of the city carefully drawn by Carl and Lilia, and the emperor who did not have local guides and acquaintances who could not even distinguish between east, west, north and south in the middle of the night, fell into chaos.

........................

"Target Zone 12! Coordinates 80! Little ones, pick up your arms and reload me!"

Hearing the firing coordinates calculated by the artillery summary center, the captain of the Shchervana artillery shouted loudly

"Coordinates eighty!

"Rapid Shooting!"

"Rapid Shooting!"

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"............

........................

"Whoosh--boom!"

"Whoosh--boom!"

"Captain! Rapid enemy fire!"

"How so?!"

"Report to the captain, our left flank and right flank have discovered that the Drum Gallia Army is outflanking our two flanks in a roundabout way!

The third brigade of the Gallia Army, which had just arrived at the designated area and was preparing to make a detour, had just started its formation when it was bombarded by artillery from the eastern highlands

"Damn, why are you so unlucky?!Retreat!Temporarily retreat to District 11! Send a telegram to contact the 2nd Brigade of the 3rd Wing!Let's go and join them!"

"Yes!

............

"Bluna! Sector 11! The enemy has withdrawn to Sector 11!"

"Carrasti, Carrasti, Target Turn, Target Turn, Latest Target, Sector 11, Sending Coordinates...... (Rhineland)"

"The enemy's target has been moved to Area 11 with the intention of converging. ”

"Tessa, the enemy is going to the 11th district, correcting the coordinates of the shelling!" (telephone)

"Got it, brother. "Captain Shervana, new firing coordinates 75, the enemy is on the move, three rapid shots!"

"Got it! Little ones! Move quickly! The latest coordinates are 75! Three shots are not corrected!"

"The No. 1 gun position has been adjusted!"

"The second gun position has been adjusted!"

"The No. 3 running position has been adjusted!"

"Shoot now!"
