Chapter 1550 Another Son of a Dog (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
With an order, under the cover of artillery fire, the 5th and 6th divisions of the Free Army turned into company-based combat units, alternately covering and rushing up the collapsed city wall east of Bitburg, and then quickly crossed the city wall and rushed into the city.
I saw that these soldiers were skillful in tactics and movements, and the offensive organization was very smooth.
They first found cover in the rubble of the ruins of the city wall, ascended to the high ground, and then set up machine guns and mortars to disperse the approaching thunderbolts with a network of fire to cover the forward rush of the rear team.
Once you encounter a strong fortress or obstacle, you will hide in place and call in the rear artillery to solve it. In this way, casualties can be minimized.
If the artillery is not up to the target for the time being, then under the cover of the infantry, sappers with explosives will rush forward and blast it.
This siege battle is fought in a decent way, and it has a bit of the demeanor of the Naian Security Army. It can be seen that these soldiers have undergone hard and serious training.
Unlike other Free Armies from local units, the 5th and 6th Divisions were formerly known as the Janissary Guards, the most elite units of the Spirit.
Although one-third of the recruits have been replenished, in terms of soldiers' combat quality and officer ability, they are all among the best in the Semitic tribe, and they are very good.
And as the Praetorian Guard, they are very close to Merlot.
General Mellot was originally the commander of the 5th Division, and the 6th Division was a brother unit.
Because they also came from the Praetorian Guard system, the status of these two divisions is quite unique in the Free Army. In the past, and now, their relationship with the rest of the Free Army is very unharmonious. In particular, it is known as the Caribbean Division of the Imperial Forest Army of the Republic of Lingshan.
In the eyes of these Foil elites, the damn fruit vendors of the Caribbean Division are all a bunch of scum with a combat strength of only six. At most, it is to bully and bully the unarmed people.
If you talk about real skills, those clay legs in the Caribbean don't even deserve to lift their shoes~!
It's just that relying on Lorraine's nepotism, he got the best and most advanced weapons, and the level of equipment is almost the same as that of the world-leading security army.
This upset them. Why do good things always fall on the heads of these Caribbean pups?
Even they privately lamented that the only thing General Melo is worse than Brad is that he can't have a daughter. If you also give birth to a beautiful daughter who is like a flower and jade, when the time comes, it will be washed white and fragrant, and put it on the bed of Lord Luo's hooligan. Everyone has a new type of weapon.
The position of the president is naturally in the pocket of General Melo, and there is no need to jump up and down like now, and there is not much benefit even if you try your best.
The battle went smoothly, and in just half an hour, the Free Army captured several blocks of the eastern city and established a strong defense.
At the same time, they also encountered their first difficulty.
The people of Bitburg had long expected that the walls would not be able to stop the Psies, and they would eventually have to fight the enemy in the streets. Therefore, they built strong barricades in the city.
The barricades were all made of stone and thick timber, which could not be penetrated by rifles or machine guns.
The Free Army was constrained by dense buildings and narrow aisles, and had to engage in melee combat with the Pitburgers, and the close-range street fighting made their firepower advantage impossible to play at all, but instead gave the Thunderbolt bow and crossbow room to play, and the offensive was immediately blocked.
When the news from the front came back to Melo, the two major generals of the coalition forces secretly laughed gloatingly: the free army has no problem fighting in the field, fighting street battles, it is technical work.
Especially in cities that are tightly sealed by barricades, it is like a labyrinth with too many obstacles.
There is simply no good way to deal with this kind of troublesome street fighting.
Either that, like ants gnawing on bones, gnawing forward little by little. Either that, close the door and let the dogs go...... Uh, no, it's on the war fortress. Clear the way with a bombshell.
In command of the Seventh Flying Group of the Coalition Forces were young mages from the second Maple Leaf Danlin Flying Training School, Joseph and Sabo.
He folded his hands and leaned back in his chair leisurely, waiting for Merlot to beg him to let the flying troops come up and help.
This is not his pride, but his self-esteem as a human alliance, after all, everyone is invited foreign aid, and it is not his own father, so he can't be guilty of stammering.
If you don't put on a show at this time, but take the initiative to jump out and ask for battle, then your posture is really too low.
Looking back, it is not impossible to be sprayed by colleagues and even scolded as 'betraying the country for glory'.
But Melo didn't look at Sabo, and said without hesitation: "Clear a road, drag the cannon into the city, and shoot at close range."
What a bunch of rubbish, you won't blow up a road without a road, and I still need to teach you this kind of little thing?"
The commander of the 5th Division, who came back to ask for instructions, was scolded by Merlot, ran back in dismay, and then sent someone to help drag the cannon into the city.
Major General Saab of the Flying Brigade flattened his mouth, then moved a chair, sat outside the tent, and began to bask in the sun.
Amid the angry shouts and curses of the officers, the artillerymen stripped off their shirtless shoulders one by one in the weather at the end of October, and then shouted trumpets and pushed the cannons towards the city.
Thanks to their efforts, a cannon weighing nearly two tons was forced into the city.
The cannons were placed in the streets, their muzzles almost flat, and they bombarded the barricades of the Bitburgers incessantly.
At the same time, the infantry hiding on both sides began to break down the walls, or simply blew up the houses, broke into the courtyard of the thunderbolts, bypassed the main road, and made a detour from both sides. Then use grenades and shotguns to eliminate the Thunderbolts hiding behind cover.
The Heavy even managed to place the machine gun on the roof of a building and fire at the Thunderbolts.
The frontal was bombarded with shells, and from time to time there were bullets, grenades in the overhead and sides, and even in the rear, the morale of the Pitburgers suddenly collapsed, and many of them were not even soldiers, but ordinary citizens.
Although these people have a high enthusiasm for defending their homes and country, not many of them have undergone strict military training, and once they see the people around them being smashed in the head by bullets flying from the opposite side, or the flesh and blood blown up by grenades, they suddenly find that "life is so beautiful" chicken soup for the soul, or think of life aphorisms such as "it is better to die than to live".
Immediately, these people shouted and turned around and fled.
Driven by them, even the soldiers who had been holding their positions turned around and fled.
When the officer in charge of the battle saw this, he immediately tried to stop him, but he was immediately overthrown to the ground, and then countless pairs of big feet stepped mercilessly on the officer's body.
The collapse of the eastern defenses of the Pitburgers had a knock-on effect, and the entire defender began to retreat, retreating in the direction of the inner city lord's mansion.
Seeing this, Merlot took advantage of the situation to throw in more troops, and sent two more divisions to join the battle, surrounding the inner city from three sides.
At half past five in the afternoon, seeing that it was about to get dark in a short time, the Free Army blew through the walls of the inner city from three directions at once, and smashed into the last line of defense of the Bitburgers.
Eventually, four divisions of the Free Army squeezed the tens of thousands of remaining defenders in Fort Bit into less than a square kilometer between the Lord's Mansion and the two surrounding streets.
When the Free Army pushed dozens of artillery pieces into the streets, and the black hole of the guns was facing the last barricade of the Pitburgers, the lord of Pitburg finally couldn't bear it anymore and raised the white flag to surrender.
The Free Army ordered all the Pitburgers to lay down their arms and gather in the square outside the City Lord's Mansion to be disposed of.
Merlot swaggered into Fort Bit before dark, while the generals of the Free Army swaggered on their toes, and the two major generals of the coalition army simply fell last, looking at their smug faces.
At this time, Fort Bit, which once had nearly 150,000 inhabitants, was like hell, and the entire Dongcheng district had been completely razed, with walls falling to the ground, houses collapsing, or large holes exposed, and streets filled with rubble, without even a clean pavement.
The roadside was littered with the bodies of the slain Lei Shan, and many women and children cried bitterly as they clung to the mutilated corpses.
Thunder's wounded were lying on the rubble, and the Free Army didn't bother to take care of them.
Frightened by the war, the dejected Thunderbolt wandered like ghosts over their bombed-up homes, at a loss.
Seeing the swaggering of the Lingshan people, they were so frightened that they fled away like rabbits, or hid in the ruins and did not dare to show their heads.
Major General Saab saw half of the human body exposed in many of the rubble, apparently thundering civilians buried in the collapsed buildings.
He couldn't help but glance up at Merlot at the front of the team, at this time, it was not time to rescue civilians, clean up the battlefield, or to destroy the country and exterminate the species, speaking of which they were still a clan, but Merlot said nothing about it.
In fact, Merlot was smiling with satisfaction, examining the effect of his men's creation, and was pleased with the appearance of the Free Army in battle.
It took less than four hours to capture a well-fortified city of the Thunder Lightning people, which is the fastest in the world, and Lord Lorraine has never been so fast in beating Haddou.
It is believed that whether the news reaches Akadrin or Rayburg, it will definitely cause a sensation.
Under the triumph of the spring breeze, Melo kicked the horse's belly and trotted all the way to the inner city.
The destruction of the inner city is not much better than that of the eastern city, but it is all large households, and the buildings are wide, and it does not look as miserable as the eastern city.
The weapons dropped by the people of Bitburg faced five tall metal mountains in front of the City Lord's Mansion, and tens of thousands of young adults sat on the ground, staring uneasily at the Lingshan General who appeared in front of them.
The soldiers escorted the surrendered lord of Fort Bit, as well as the officers and officers, to Meloma.
The clothes on these people were in disarray, and it seemed that they had been thoroughly searched by the Free Army soldiers, and of course, some of the things on their bodies that would glow with gold also fell into the hands of the Free Army soldiers.
This kind of robbery is already the rule on the battlefield.
Merlot was immediately high, smiling and looking down at the group of thunder people who had been defeated under his hands, and was in a very happy mood.
At the head was the lord of Bitburg, a royal nobleman from the Zatan clan, but his appearance was very miserable at the moment, his clothes were violently torn, revealing white and fat skin, his hair was unkempt, and his face was sticky with dirt.
But he was full of momentum, and he looked up and glared at Merlot without showing weakness.
Merlot took out a note and read it on, "Go back to your hometown, well, the handwriting is pretty good, who wrote this note?"
The city lord of Bitburg raised his head, snorted coldly, and said, "I wrote, what's the matter, if you want to kill or chop, whoever you want." ”
Merlot held out a finger and pointed at him, and with a "uh-huh" sound in his nose, one of the guards took a note, walked up to the Lord of Bitburg, and looked at him with a sinister smile.
The city lord of Fort Bit struggled twice, but he was caught by the soldiers on both sides, so he could only lean back as much as he could, and asked sharply, "What do you want to do?"
The attendant grabbed the castle lord's fat chin and squeezed it so hard that the castle lord opened his mouth, and with the contempt characteristic of the victor, he said, "Our commander said, who wrote to eat this." ”
Then he forced the note into the mouth of the city lord, the action was very rough, half of his hand was forced into the mouth of the city lord, and the city lord couldn't help but whine.
Seeing that their city lord was so humiliated, the Lei Shan people showed an angry look, but they were afraid that the Ling Shan people would see it, so they could only lower their heads, and some people couldn't help crying.
And the Lingshan people laughed heartily when they saw the comical appearance of the castle lord of Bitburg.
The reporters accompanying the army rushed to record this funny paragraph, and prepared to go back and write an article to make a good joke and laugh at Lei Shanren.
Major General Sabo looked at it in his eyes, and was quite concerned about this Merlot's expression, because there was no need to insult Lei Shanren so much.
And the other artillery major general was already thinking about how to write a report to Lord Lorraine, he was a member of the security army, and Lord Lorraine sent him to spy on Merlot.
Melo took the reins and rode around the city lord of Bitburg, and then looked at the thunderbolts gathered in the square, and suddenly beckoned to his opponent and said in a loud voice: "Drive all the thunderbolts out of the city." ”
This brainless order made Lingshan and Lei Shen people stunned, not knowing what he wanted to do on a whim.
Merlot looked at his subordinates in a daze, and shouted with a straight face: "What are you still doing in a daze, execution, I will drive them to the west of the city before dark." ”
A division commander was the first to react, and then sent an order downward, ordering the soldiers to assemble and escort the prisoners out of the city, and at the same time search the whole city, driving everyone out, and the city was immediately in chaos.
Melo looked at the soldiers of the Free Army who were still puzzled, looked at the tall and gorgeous City Lord's Mansion in front of him, sneered, and said, "Now, burn the entire Bit Castle for me, starting with this City Lord's Mansion." ”
The general of the Fifth Division looked at his colleagues on the left and right, stepped forward, as if he had misheard, and asked, "General, are you letting us ...... Burned here?"
Merlot nodded affirmatively and said, "Not only do I want you to burn down every building in the city, but I also want you to fill every well in the city and destroy all the surrounding towns and farmlands.
In short, I want you to turn Pitburg into ruins. ”
The lord of Fort Bit struggled violently, and yelled at Merlot fiercely: "What do you want to do, you devil, we Thunder Lightning people will not give in, if you have a kind of you, you will kill us." ”
The Thunderbolt captives, who were being driven out, also became agitated, and they rushed to the wall of the Flash's soldiers, waving their fists and yelling at Merlot, and the scene was about to get out of control.
"Bang bang bang ......" There was a loud gunshot sound.
A group of Free Army soldiers opened fire into the air, then leveled the smoked muzzles and pointed them at the thunderbolt captives.
Then there was a messy metal crash, and the surrounding machine guns also pulled their bolts and aimed at them.
The soldiers behind the machine guns looked at them coldly, and when anyone dared to move, they immediately beat him into a sieve.
Under the threat of death, the Thunderbolts quickly calmed down, but still glared at Merlot fiercely.
Merlot looked at the city lord who was held down by several soldiers, still struggling and scolding, gave him a disdainful look, and said, "If the killing works, I will kill you all without hesitation." ”
The cold light in Merlot's eyes made the Lord of Fort Bit feel like a cold water, and he fell silent, knowing that this hateful creature was telling the truth.
Merlot turned his horse's head, looked at the generals under his command, and said in a loud voice: "There are 30 million people in Thunder, and we can't kill them anyway."
For the sake of a unified Semitic race, we must conquer them, not only from **, but also from the soul to make them kneel and make them fear us.
If necessary, I will command you to burn their cities and villages, destroy all their farmlands and wells, and kill everyone who dares to rebel against us, until their fear of us sinks deep into their souls, until they are obediently tamed.
I'm going to make them never dare to read again, even if they just want to, and I'm going to make them tremble with fear.
We are not for ourselves, we are for the future of the whole Semitic race. ”
The generals of the Free Army quickly grasped what Merlot meant: the deterrent power of terror.
Warn the Thunderbolts of the brutal truth, this is the price of daring them to oppose the Thunderbolts.
If they dare to oppose the Psychics, they will do the same.
During the night, a fire broke out in the city of Bitburg, and the flames began to spread outward from the city lord's mansion, burning the entire city in a short time.
The raging fire rushed up dozens of meters into the sky, and the light of the fire illuminated the sky above the city, which could be seen clearly from forty miles away.
At this time, there were still many citizens in the city who were reluctant to leave Bitburg.
The fire burned all night and showed no signs of abating.
The smoke from the burning Fort Bit billowed and flew into the sky, forming a cloud of smoke that obscured the sky, and even the sunlight was blocked, and the surroundings of Fort Bit were like night, and even the war fortress had to move and take shelter.
More than 100,000 civilians fleeing the fighting rushed back to Fort Bit, only to watch their homes burn down a few miles away.
The Free Army faithfully carried out Merlot's orders, and after Merlot said that he would defeat the Thunder Lightning from the soul, the soldiers' respect for him quickly increased, and no one doubted Merlot's orders anymore.
They burned all the hundreds of villages and towns around them, forced the people of Thunder to fill their wells, trampled the farmland on horseback, and killed all the livestock, cows, horses, donkeys, pigs, sheep, and even chickens.
While brazenly preventing fires and slaughtering animals, Merlot strictly restricts the military discipline of the Free Army, not allowing them to attack the unarmed Thunderbolts.
The human soldiers sent by the coalition to support them were dumbfounded, even the Rumans, who were eager to take revenge, had never treated the people of Haddou's city of Haligard in this way.
The two coalition major generals changed their perception of Merlot, and at the same time affirmed that this guy was a ruthless man, and a clever and cunning ruthless man.
Having him commander of the First Expeditionary Force may have been a mistake that did not serve the interests of the coalition forces.
They all sent a secret letter to Lord Lorraine, and they all wrote a sentence with the same meaning at the end: Beware of this son of a bitch~!
