In the past two days, the Zhenjun army still did not show the slightest intention of launching an attack on Navia, and the whole army was building temples with great fanfare. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The actions of the Jungjun army, who were both cutting wood and gathering stones, largely paralyzed the defenders of Navia, believing that the Wind Army would not attack Navia until the temple had been built.

The miscalculation of the Besa army led to the sudden attack of the Zhenjun army, and the Besa army was unprepared and was caught off guard.

Two days later, in the morning, without warning, the Zhenjun army launched a ferocious artillery bombardment of the outer defense line of the city of Navia.

In this shelling, the four legions of the Zhenjun Army, almost all of their artillery, launched a wanton bombardment of the eastern defense line of Navia City.

A salvo of 2,000 guns can be called a carpet attack. In the camp of the Zhenjun army, the sound of artillery roared continuously, and the earth was constantly trembling.

The first line of defense of the Besa Army, which was within range, was blown up in thick smoke and bloomed everywhere, and there was no place to find any intact.

At the end of the hour, the horrific artillery bombardment of the Zhenjun Army finally came to an end, and the 1st, 2nd, and 4th Army Corps advanced forward, divided into three routes, and launched a full-scale assault from the eastern defense line of Navia.

The 3rd Army Corps, as a reserve for the Wind Army, was in the rear. The 18th Army Corps of the Besa Army was stationed on the eastern line of defense of Navia, and the 5th and 6th Corps of the 18th Army Corps were stationed in the first line of defense. héiyaпgě

When the main force of the Zhenjun army advanced up, the Besa army, which was hiding in the trenches and almost buried in the mud, stood up one after another, and the people no longer bothered to pat off the dirt on their bodies, and they all picked up their guns and fired at the wind army approaching step by step outside the defense line.

With the sound of bangbangbang, the Zhenjun army in the front row was knocked down. The officers and men of the Zhenjun Army also reacted quickly, the first platoon immediately fell to the ground, the second platoon knelt on one knee, the third platoon shot upright, and the salvo of the third platoon shot projectiles overwhelmingly forward.

Projectiles hit the edge of the trenches, crackled, hit people's helmets, and tinkled incessantly.

One by one, the Besa soldiers in the trenches fell backwards, their bodies all shot in the head and their helmets pierced. Seeing that the two corps in front could not support it, the commander of the 18th Army Corps urgently transferred three more corps to support the first line of defense.

It's a pity that the reinforcements of the three corps of Besa have not yet arrived, and the first line of defense has been broken through by the Zhenjun army one after another.

A large number of wind troops, armed with swords and firearms, jumped into the trenches and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Besa army.

The current Besa army did not have a melee weapon such as a sword, and in the face of the swarming wind army, they had no power to fight back, and were killed in groups, and the few remaining soldiers lost their fighting spirit, gave up resistance, jumped out of the trenches, and ran back desperately.

The wind army in the trench took advantage of the situation to remove the sword, reload the ammunition, and use the trench as a cover to launch a volley at the defeated army of Bessa. Bang, bang, bang! The sound of the fire crackles was incessant, and the defeated officers and men of the Besa Army fell to the ground one by one.

When the three corps of Bessa's army came to reinforce them, they were crashing into the muzzles of the wind army's guns.

This time, the Wind Army relied on the trenches as cover to occupy favorable terrain, while the Bessa Army was completely exposed to the guns of the Wind Army. The Besa reinforcements of the three corps did not take advantage of the slightest advantage, and were all repulsed by the fierce fire of the wind army.

They had just retreated to the second line of defense of the Besa army, and the wind army had already advanced their artillery and was ready for it. It wasn't long before the wind army began to bombard again, this time targeting the second line of defense of the Besa army.

For a moment, the second line of defense of the Besa Army was plunged into a sea of fire, explosions everywhere, screams of people everywhere, and clouds of blood mist dispersed in the air.

The shelling lasted for two quarters of an hour, and when the shelling stopped, the wind troops occupying the first line of defense rushed out from behind their bunkers and attacked the second line of defense of the Besa army.

At this time, in the second line of defense of the Besa army, as far as the eye could see, there were all the corpses of the Besa army, as well as fragmented corpses.

The remnants of the Besa army did not put up a decent resistance, and they retreated one after another. The front army of the Wind Army took advantage of the situation to occupy the second line of defense.

Up to this time, the battle of the Zhenjun army was smooth, and the ill-prepared Besa army was defeated and retreated, and three lines of defense, two of which had been lost in two hours.

But just when the officers and men of the Zhenjun Army thought that they could penetrate the enemy's third line of defense in one go, the artillery counterattack of the Besa Army began.

The artillery counterattack of the Besa Army was the first line of defense that directly suppressed the occupation of the Wind Army. At the same time, all units of the 19th Army Corps of the Besa Army gathered on the eastern defense line and joined forces with the 18th Army Corps to resist the attack of the Wind Army.

Under the artillery attack of the Besa army, the wind army occupying the first line of defense also suffered heavy casualties, and because of the suppression of the Besa artillery, the artillery of the wind army could not advance into the first line of defense at all, and could not form an effective blow to the Besa army.

The first line of defense was suppressed by the Besa artillery, and the troops behind could not advance, and the wind army that broke into the second line of defense became a lone army.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Besa Army launched a full-scale counterattack, and the 18th and 19th Corps, with a total of five corps, divided into five lines, broke through to the second line of defense.

Although the wind army put up a desperate resistance, they were outnumbered in the end and defeated, and the soldiers in front retreated one after another.

With artillery suppression and infantry advances, the Besa army finally recaptured the second line of defense.

The artillery of the Wind Army could not reach the third line of defense, but it could reach the second line of defense. Hearing that the second line of defense had been lost and had been snatched back by the Besa army, the artillery phalanx immediately launched a salvo and bombarded the second line of defense.

Now the east defense line of Navia City, the battle between the two sides has entered the white-hot level, the Besa army shelled the first line of defense occupied by the wind army, and the wind army shelled the second line of defense recaptured by the Besa army, the dense shells continued to explode in the positions on both sides, the roar came and went, endlessly, to the end, the barrels of the artillery on both sides could not stand it, a large bucket of cold water was poured up, and it was immediately evaporated.

By the afternoon, most of the artillery on both sides had been muted, and only sporadic shelling remained, and the ensuing battle was really a needle-to-needle battle against Maimang.

The Wind Army in the first line of defense launched a fierce attack on the Besa Army in the second line of defense, and after being repulsed by the Besa Army, the Besa Army launched a counterattack, but the counterattack of the Besa Army was quickly pushed back by the fierce counterattack of the Wind Army.

The offensive of both sides was a wave of you and a wave of me, but in the end they were all in vain, and the battle came to a stalemate.

Shangguan Xiu, who was watching the battle with a telescope in the back, saw that the soldiers in front of him could not open the situation for a long time, and he frowned. At this moment, Zhao Chen walked quickly to Shangguan Xiu's side and said, "My lord, I just received the defeat of Tulana City!"

"Read. Shangguan Xiu held the monoculars, stared at the battlefield ahead, and said without looking back.

"Just now, Ningnan's Zhengxi Group Army has broken through the outer defense line of Tulana City, and is currently storming the main city of Tulana!"

"So fast!" Shangguan Xiu muttered in surprise, put it on the binoculars, and asked, "Aren't the two legions of Besa stationed in Tulana?"

"It's two legions, but the main defense line of the Besa Army is located in the south of the city, and a part of the Zhengxi Army quietly went around to the north of the city, successfully attacked the northern defense line of Tulana, and opened the gap in the northern defense line. The Ningnan army that attacked the northern defense line was led by Xin Jiyao himself. It seems that what Ji Zheng said is right, Xin Jiyao's injury is really fine!"

Shangguan Xiu's brows tightened, whether Xin Jiyao's injury was good or not, it had nothing to do with him, the key issue was that the three legions of the Zhengxi Group Army had now broken through the outer defense line of Tulana, and the four legions of his own side were still fighting the outer defense line of Navia, which was too much to say.

He stamped his feet, turned over his horse, and said in a deep voice, "I'll go ahead and see!"

Shangguan Xiu asked Meng Qiuchen to sit in the rear on his behalf, and he went to the front battlefield under the escort of an elite military policeman.

At this time, Luo Ren, Zhan Xiong, and An Yifu were all here in the artillery position, and when they saw Shangguan Xiu coming, the three of them hurriedly stepped forward with their respective subordinates, and everyone intervened to salute and said in unison: "My lord!"

"Our three legions, fighting the enemy's two legions, why has there been no progress until now?" Shangguan Xiu turned over and dismounted, stood still in front of Luo Ren and the three of them, raised his eyes to look at the battlefield in front of him, and his brows furrowed even tighter.

An Yifu hurriedly explained: "My lord, the eastern defense line of the Besa army is extremely strong, the ravines are vertical and horizontal, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the resistance of the defenders is also extremely tenacious, and the enemy's artillery suppresses the first line of defense, and our army's artillery cannot advance......"

Before he finished speaking, Luo Ren turned his head sideways and shouted, "Someone!"

"General!" a general on the side hurriedly stepped out of the column and intervened to give a salute.

Luo Ren said in a condensed voice: "I have ordered our army corps to fight in the front, within half an hour, must break through the enemy's second line of defense for me, and if it can't be defeated by then, let their three corps commanders come to see me!"

"Yes, General!" the general agreed, pulled over a warhorse, and ran past the front position, conveying Roshino's order.

There is no need to explain anything now, because the operation is unfavorable, that is, the operation is unfavorable, and no matter how much explanation there is, it is just making excuses for oneself; instead of doing so, it is better to arouse the enthusiasm of the officers and men at the front and strive to break the current deadlock in the shortest possible time.

Luo Ren's direct order made An Yifu pause in the middle of his explanation, and the rest of the words were swallowed back into his stomach.

Shangguan Xiu's gloomy face softened a little, nodded to Luo Ren, and then, he got back on his horse and said, "You continue to command here, I'll go to the front and have a look!"

"My lord, the front line is dangerous—"

"It's because of the danger at the front that you have to stay here!" Shangguan Xiu didn't want any of his legion commanders to be killed by Besa's spear shooters, repeating the mistakes of Ningnan Zuo's general Chang Yong. "However, if the Besa Army wants to hurt me, it's not that easy!"
