Chapter 253 Test

With the order from Major General Yang, the Pioneer Brigade, which had been resting for half an hour, immediately began to assemble before the war. The artillery squadron of the Pioneer Brigade also began to prepare for artillery fire. Although the two artillery brigades had arrived, they were unable to participate in the artillery attack because there were not many flat areas in the mountains and had not yet built artillery positions.

In fact, Major General Yang did not mean to let the artillery brigade start shelling now. After all, it was just a tentative attack, and finding the firepower points of the defenders of the Kingdom's defenders was the purpose of this attack.

More than 1,000 people from the Pioneer Brigade bypassed the Gushan Mountain and rushed straight towards the main position at the Anwupo Pass. Zhou Shiyu, who had already entered the position, looked through the telescope at the Black Eagle Army trotting forward only 1,000 feet away from his side.

Gan Yuanfeng, a veteran who was platoon leader from a sergeant, licked his dry lips and murmured: "Be good, many people, the company commander, would you order the machine cannon to sweep a few shuttles? You can definitely kill more than a dozen of them."

The range of 1,000 feet is a little far for light machine guns, but for the MG42 with a lengthened barrel, this distance is not an out of reach. It is not too good to shoot such a dense Black Hawk Army troop with the terrifying rate of fire of MG42.

"You are so naughty that you can't get on the table. Just a dozen Black Hawk Empire people are nothing. Not to mention a dozen Black Hawk Empire people, even this brigade, the commander didn't take it seriously. The commander was going to deal with the Black Hawk Empire people. If you pass the order, no one can shoot without my order. If anyone fires a gun without my order, I will deal with the military law. Let me tell you that since I went up to this mountain, my military merits have been the first in the independent regiment and no one can take it away. As long as I fight with the Black Hawk Empire people, I will ask for merit for my brothers after this battle." Zhou Shiyu turned around and glanced at his trusted subordinate and said coldly.

Without Zhou Shiyu's obstacle, the Pioneer Brigade easily stood at 700 feet below Anwupo Mountain.

As the infantry attack formation unfolded, the four Type 92 infantry artillery of the artillery squadron of the Pioneer Brigade fired first. In just over a dozen minutes, hundreds of shells were fired at the forward company's position, causing the entire position to rush into the sky and mud to splash. However, more than 100 officers and soldiers in the first company were prepared and all hid in the individual gun hole dug in advance and reinforced with bricks and stone cement.

Liu Langhe Xiangqian was naturally as stable as a company reinforced with steel plates and logs. Liu Lang didn't take the cannon fire all over the sky seriously. He also looked at the 92 infantry cannons that were spitting out projectiles 1,000 feet away, making an idea.

"This guy is a good thing! But today I will be from my independent regiment." Liu Lang murmured at the infantry cannon in the camera.

As the most equipped Type 92 infantry cannon in the Black Hawk Army infantry unit, it can actually be regarded as an extremely excellent weapon. Although its caliber is only 70MM, the shell is not light. A high-explosive shell weighs 3.8 kilograms, which means its power is still quite large.

Of course, the excellent cannon does not mean how powerful it is, because the initial velocity of the projectile is low, and in fact it does not damage the steel and cement fortifications very much.

But this guy weighs less than 500 kilograms, and two or three strong soldiers can push it and go away. The shooting range is very good, with a horizontal shooting range of 90 degrees and a high and low shooting angle of 90 degrees. Flat shooting can be used as cannons, curved shooting can be used as howitzers, and large elevation shooting can reach more than 80 degrees and can also be used as a mortar.

If in this era, that kind of cannon is the most suitable for mountain combat, it is undoubtedly the Type 92 infantry cannon used by the Black Hawk Army now. This cannon has been used a lot in the famous Huagaoya defense battle in the Principality.

To a certain extent, on a more special battlefield like Anwupo, the 92 infantry cannon is more useful than the Bofos cannon.

Taking advantage of the shelling, the two infantry squadrons of the 4th Squadron belonging to the Pioneer Brigade quietly began to climb up the mountain and reached the forefront of the position.

This infantry team is really cruel. It actually pushed the attack starting point to a distance of less than two hundred meters from the front of the forward company. At such a close distance, if the artillery of the Black Hawk Empire fails, the shells will most likely blow up their own people. However, from this we can also see that the legendary Black Hawk Empire's awesome infantry and cannon coordination is really not a boast.

?There were rumbling guns on the independent regiment position that was only more than 200 meters away from them, but the members of the four light machine gun teams of the two infantry squads were not idle. They were working in the field quickly with engineer shovels in the shooting position.

Each standard squad of the Black Hawk Army is equipped with a platoon similar to that of the Kingdom Army. A total of 54 people are equipped with 2 machine guns. Each machine gun has one commander, one shooter, two deputy shooters carrying ammunition, and four people dig a simple machine gun trench very quickly.

When the artillery nearly stopped, the four machine gun bunkers were basically completed. Liu Lang couldn't help but sigh, not knowing what would happen to the Black Hawk Army in five years, but from this period, the Black Hawk Empire Army was indeed the number one in the East Continent, with strong individual soldiers and discipline, and good cooperation between the units. Coupled with the absolute advantage of firepower, no wonder the Kingdom Army could not defeat it.

As soon as the shelling stopped, more than 100 Black Hawk Empire soldiers immediately rushed out from the starting point of the attack with bayonets.

When the officers and soldiers of the 1st Company on the position drilled out of the anti-cannon hole and rushed into the trenches and foxglove pits, the Black Hawk Empire soldiers were already within fifty meters! In this way, the company that Xiangqiu was quite quick to react. If it were the Kingdom Army before, when they entered the trenches, they would be afraid that the Black Hawk Empire soldiers would have already reached the bottom of their eyes and noses!

Xiang Qian, who rushed out of the command center and took out his pistol, was immediately scared and covered in white-haired sweat. Now, he had a personal experience of the "powerfulness" of the Black Hawk Army.

Liu Lang was still staying in the company's army, and he didn't even have the intention to take the sniper rifle around him. If only these hundreds of Black Hawk Empire people were going to send him, he would be too despised.

More importantly, this is the first battle between the Independent Regiment and the Black Hawk Army. Even if it is just a tentative attack by the Black Hawk Empire, they must solve it themselves. What Liu Lang wants is the elite on the battlefield, not the elite on the training ground.

However, the forward company was indeed worthy of the title of the first company. In an instant, fierce gunfire sounded on the 1st company's position.

The two light machine guns at the forefront fired at the same time. Several of the Black Hawk Empire soldiers were immediately piled up. Seeing that the situation was wrong, the remaining Black Hawk Empire soldiers immediately fell to the ground, looking for cover on the spot and shooting in a row.

The four wicked light machine guns, which were 200 meters away, also opened fire at the same time to suppress several fire points in the company.

A little further apart, several groups of Black Hawks set up grenade launchers to clear several light machine gun firepower groups exposed in a row.

The Black Hawk Army's grenade launcher was very accurate. After two consecutive shots hit about ten meters next to the machine gun fire point, the third shot hit the machine gun position of three rows and one squad.

Fortunately, the machine gunner was not too stupid. As the sand and gravel splashed from the second grenade of the Black Hawks hit his body, he rolled into the trench that was dug deep enough with the machine gun.

His keen battlefield intuition saved his life and machine gun.
