Seeing Pang Lei get a sniper rifle, other people's eyes were filled with envy. Lu Xing smiled and said: "Don't be jealous, this thing is for us guys, if you need it, just grab it and it will be done. If you really have it in the future,

Once we gain our own territory, we will fully arm ourselves.”

Qiao Fengtao is the oldest among this group of people, and he also takes a more long-term view of the problem.

"Platoon commander, what news did you tell me?"

"Oh... despite what he said, the previous special forces team and the current reconnaissance company are here to detect the specific coordinates of the second line of defense. The purpose is to provide detailed strike coordinates for the 502 artillery unit. There is a very important thing. It is estimated that

The entire private army of 258 was kept in the dark. Now the entire Yuzhou area has been unified by the 'Shancheng' group. Their strength is at least 300,000, and they have resumed mass production of howitzers. It is said that the No. 1 defense line has not been able to move for a day.

He didn't even make it through, and he was completely captured."

"Ah... Then aren't we just like them, still holding Mao's position!"

This is what almost everyone is saying. Their second line of defense even has two battalions less troops than the first line of defense, and their weapons and equipment are not much better than the opponent's. Obviously, their fate is the first line of defense.

With a heavy heart, Lu Xing led the investigators back to the second line of defense at dawn. In Liu Zhansheng's command post, seeing them returning, several company commanders and adjutants crowded in.

Liu Zhansheng looked at Lu Xing: "How about Lu Xing, what's the situation at 502?"

Lu Xing smiled bitterly: "Haha... Battalion Commander, our brothers are in big trouble...!"

After listening to Lu Xing's words, Liu Zhansheng said with a gloomy face: "Damn it, there's no way to survive at all!"

"Report to the battalion commander, the base communication is coming!"

Suddenly, the battalion headquarters correspondent ran over with a communicator on his back. Liu Zhansheng took the receiver and put it to his ear to listen.

After dozens of seconds, his gloomy face looked a little better: "It's still a little bit humane. Let's hold on until nine o'clock tonight and we can evacuate the defense line. But the boss said that the way back is probably not going to be easy. He also said

You can’t advance even one minute, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences, which is really inexplicable!”

A company commander said: "In today's wilderness, when the road is easy to pass, it will be good if you can avoid death. If you are not allowed to evacuate early, I'm afraid the third line of defense is not ready yet!"

Liu Zhansheng frowned: "No, no, no, this must mean something else!"

"Boom, boom, boom...!"

Suddenly, there was a slight vibration in the ground, and it seemed that there were huge serial explosions happening in the distance.

Several company commanders all looked in the direction of settlement 258. Someone suddenly changed his face: "It's a big trough. In all likelihood, the roadbed to return was blown up?"

Liu Zhansheng almost went crazy: "Nah... the road is not easy to walk on, so this is what he meant. The front foot just said that we should hold on until the evening and then we can evacuate. Before he could say this, the roadbed was blown up.

This is because we are afraid that the enemy will catch up with us as we evacuate. How afraid are these cowards of the 502 settlement..."

Lu Xing looked at the defense line opposite the roadbed and suddenly asked: "Batalion Commander, do you want to inform them that there is definitely no way to defend here. The opponent's grenades are coming overwhelmingly. We are very likely to be finished with the position!"

"No, they must have been notified. At this time, they can only kill fellow Taoists rather than poor Taoists. You company commanders, please notify and let the soldiers move to the ridge behind. If the opponent launches a range bombing, where will it be estimated?"

Not within the bombing range, the soldiers should be able to escape."

As several company commanders secretly issued orders, the soldiers of the third battalion began to move quietly towards the ridge behind the defense line. Lu Xing sensed the friendly troops on the opposite side and flanks, and found that the entire defense line was enveloped in a peaceful atmosphere.

middle.

Lu Xing was a little speechless: "I feel so good even though I'm doing such a dangerous job.

It was dusk in the blink of an eye. In the clearing of the No. 1 defense line, the first self-propelled howitzer drove over. Behind it, there was a long line of howitzer convoys, like an extra-long train.

The adjutant breathed a sigh of relief and murmured in a low voice: "The engineering department is good, it actually connected the road. Mr. Zhang is right, there must be brave men under the big reward."

At this time, a correspondent came over with a piece of paper and saluted: "Adjutant Yu, Mr. Zhang gave me the coordinates for the grenade bombing. After all the grenade trucks were in place, they started the first round of bombardment directly. Without his order, even if they were all fired,

Don’t stop until the last grenade!”

Yu Yang took the note, which contained the bombing coordinates that Zhang Zhengli had someone carefully calculate based on a detailed map.

Yu Yang held the note and walked towards an off-road vehicle on the side of the grenade truck matrix. At the same time, Hu Jiali, the commander of the howitzer regiment on the off-road vehicle, also saw Yu Yang and quickly got off the car. Although Yu Yang was an adjutant, Zhang Zhengli's adjutant was facing him.

As the leader of the group, he didn't dare to be careless at all.

Hu Jiali saluted: "Hello, Adjutant Yu, what are your instructions from Mr. Zhang?"

"Haha, old guard, we brothers don't have to be so polite and salute!"

"We are marching and fighting at this time, so the military etiquette cannot be revoked!"

"It's up to you. These are the bombing coordinates given by Mr. Zhang. Once the grenade truck is in place, the first round of bombardment will be launched immediately. Without Mr. Zhang's order, the bombing will not stop even if the last grenade is empty!"

"Yes, tell Mr. Zhang and just wait and see!"

At this moment, on the second line of defense, Lu Xing's third battalion had withdrawn to the ridge behind the line of defense. It was about two thousand meters away from the line of defense. Even if the 502's grenade unit wanted to conduct a range bombing, they would never be able to cover this place.

Liu Zhansheng looked at his watch: "It's eight o'clock. We can retreat in one hour."

A company commander asked: "Battal Commander, what kind of evil do you think the higher ups are doing? They let the brothers work so hard to build fortifications, and then suddenly gave up!"

"Who knows, maybe the plan changed temporarily. The first line of defense collapsed after holding on for less than a day. If the higher ups couldn't contact them, they might have guessed the outcome."

Lu Xing turned to look at him: "Batalion Commander, maybe you should tell the friendly forces to withdraw from the defense line so that they don't hide behind the fortifications and get bombed?"

"Don't talk nonsense, what's the point of bombing? We are still lying in the fortifications at the moment!

"Yes, yes, that's right...!"

"Whoosh...boom!"

Just as several company commanders and Liu Zhansheng were chatting, the sound of artillery shells cutting through the airflow suddenly sounded in the sky, followed by a grenade that hit the place where the third battalion originally stayed.

The violent explosion kicked up dust dozens of meters high, and rock fragments were thrown in all directions. Everyone saw clearly that the shell directly overturned a section of the trench more than fifty meters long, and the sacks containing sand and gravel were overturned.

High in the sky.

"...Boom...Boom!"

Immediately afterwards, artillery shells rained down towards the second defense line like rain, and the ground shook violently. Four to five hundred people from the third battalion lay on the ridge, all staring at the doomsday-like No. 2 defense line in stunned silence.

The bombardment area of ​​the grenade directly covered the entire area of ​​the second line of defense. The dense artillery shells overturned the trenches, traffic trenches, ear holes, etc. on the defense line over and over again as if they were free.

After the natural disaster, all the settlements were almost at the same starting point, and everyone's weapons and equipment were not much different. Not to mention Lu Xing's group of recruits, even veterans like Liu Zhansheng and several company commanders had never seen such bombings.

Scenes.

"I...fuck!"

"Oh my god, luckily we have the information returned by Axing's investigation, otherwise we would be just like those friendly forces now!"

"Isn't that right? Ah Xing is simply our lucky star!"

Liu Zhansheng looked at the entire defense line with a telescope, and his scalp went numb: "Damn it, if this round continues, not even half of the friendly troops will be left!"

Five minutes later, the explosions stopped. Lu Xing roughly counted that in the round of bombing just now, at least hundreds of artillery shells landed on the five-kilometer-long and one-kilometer-wide defense line.

Based on the fact that the explosion radius of a 203mm self-propelled howitzer shell is close to 500 meters, hundreds of shells would almost hit the entire line of defense bombers five or six times.

After the artillery fire stopped, the smoke began to dissipate. Everyone looked at the defense line in the distance, and their jaws dropped, because at this moment, there was no trace of fortifications on the entire defense line, and more than 1,500 people in the three battalions could see it.

There were only a few soldiers crawling out of some shell holes that had not completely collapsed. Liu Zhansheng saw through the telescope that their seven holes were bleeding, which was caused by the violent explosion.

The eardrum or the capillaries in the eyes and nostrils are damaged.

Liu Zhansheng knew that although these people were not dead at the moment, they were definitely not much better. Several company commanders holding telescopes were also confused. This round of bombing was too shocking. Without the intelligence brought back by Lu Xing

, they will definitely not have a second result at this moment.

Lu Xing turned to look at Liu Zhansheng, with some indescribable anger in his heart. If the previous intelligence could be shared with these friendly forces, how could their entire army be wiped out?

Liu Zhansheng felt a little embarrassed when he felt Lu Xing's gaze: "I didn't expect that the 502 grenade would be so powerful."

In fact, if the No. 1 defense line had open areas and anti-gun holes, this round of bombing would not have caused such heavy losses. The bad thing was that the terrain of the No. 2 defense line was too narrow, and it looked like an obvious eye shape on the map.

Zhang Zhengli calculated the coordinates based on the map alone, providing a precise strike range for these heavy firepowers.

"Yeah, who would have thought that the 502 grenade would be so terrifying. If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have believed that this thing was made by humans!"

"Axing, I can't blame the battalion commander for this. The private armies these days have no faith at all. If they don't undermine each other, they are doing their best. Who would think about the safety of others!"
