Chapter 299 Battle of the Ancient Mountains (3)

A squadron of Black Hawks quickly retreated.

The firepower of the Kingdom defenders was much stronger than they thought, even though they were already very careful. However, the firepower of the two MG42s on the left and right sides of the position was still beyond their imagination.

The smoke still shrouded on the battlefield blocked the vision of the soldiers of the Death even covered the eyes of the Black Hawk Army. It was not until more than 100 Black Hawk Army rushed to more than 50 meters from the main position that both sides began to shoot.

The distance between hand-to-hand combat is almost a few seconds later, so that the artillery soldiers on both sides can only watch from the wall. A castle arranged on the right side of the position of the Death Company was not destroyed, and one of the MG42s that entered it unfolded its firepower without any scruples.

The terrifying speed of fire suppressed more than 100 Black Hawks and could not move around 50 meters away. The Type 92 heavy machine gun located behind it had no choice but to use the solid castle. The grenades that had been prepared hundreds of meters away could only blindly throw grenades at the Death Corps position in the smoke of gunpowders. If you want to hit the dead mouse, you will naturally not get much effect.

On the contrary, the Black Hawk Army regretted that it ran too fast and was too close to the Kingdom defenders' positions. It was condescending, and a distance of 50 meters was enough to kill several large and round soldiers who threw grenades from the trenches.

As nearly a dozen grenades exploded in the middle of the Black Hawk Army, more than a dozen lying Black Hawk Army were bombed and flew up in the air. Captain Zhou, the captain of the Black Hawk Army squadron behind the position, sent a signal to retreat.

This first attack was a firepower reconnaissance itself. The kingdom defenders had extremely strong firepower. As the front line commander, Zhou Wei would not lose his troops to this offensive that was not of much significance.

The Black Hawks alternately covered and retreated quickly.

The platoon leader did not order a counterattack because he knew very well that the Black Hawk Army's shelling would come soon. This time, the surviving Burrow will be difficult to save. The Black Hawk Army, who has already discovered the location of the Burrow, will definitely not allow it to exist.

Two observation posts were left again, and a row of suicide companies quickly retreated through the already broken traffic trench into the tunnel behind the mountain.

As expected, in just two minutes, the heavy artillery brigade, who had received the report on the situation ahead, opened fire again, but this time it only took five minutes to finish.

The two observation whistles were very lucky this time, and survived the crazy shelling of the Black Hawk Army. When they heard the footsteps of the Black Hawk Army's heavy leather shoes stepping into the mountains, they immediately blew the bamboo flute hard.

The row of people was ready to rush into the position again. In the short battle that had only been more than ten minutes, they miraculously lost no one.

"Wait." Zhou Shiyu suddenly waved his hand and frowned and said, "Wait for another half a minute."

Undoubtedly, this is a very difficult decision. Half a minute is enough for the Black Hawk Empire to rush to the main position. Although there is still a second line of defense, the Black Hawk Empire can easily occupy the first line of defense, and the entire mountaintop defense war will fall into a passive position.

"Company Commander..." The first platoon leader obviously knew the result, and looked very anxious.

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a harsh whistle from far to near.

"Boom, boom" a row of mountain cannon shells exploded on the position, and another swayed, shaking the soldiers who had already walked out of the tunnel.

Another shelling attack lasted more than 5 minutes.

"The Black Hawk Empire is so cunning." A row of white-haired sweat grew.

If the company commander Zhou Shiyu had not had an idea and asked them to wait for another half a minute, the row that hurried to the position would definitely suffer heavy losses, and luck would almost have been a team-destroyer.

Zhou Shiyu also secretly said he was lucky. If he hadn't had a sudden idea just now, he remembered some of the methods that the enemy would use in the tactics of the reverse slope tunnel when Liu Lang gave lectures to them, the most powerful row under his command would have almost disappeared.

Of course, Zhou Shiyu did not think of this on a whim, but because his vision was blocked and the distance from the observation whistle was limited. The reason why he played the bamboo flute was mainly to listen to the movements of the Black Hawk Army opposite.

The shelling on the opposite side stopped for only a minute and they heard the movement. It was too fast unless the commander of the Black Hawk Army on the opposite side ignored the lives of his soldiers.

But obviously, this was just a second attack, and it was far from the moment when the Black Hawks charged to the death.

What an excellent commander does not need a superman's first-class smart mind, but more importantly, he can make the most correct judgment based on the battlefield situation. Zhou Shiyu may not be considered an excellent commander now, but the battlefield is allowing him to grow.

Fortunately, his judgment this time was extremely accurate.

Not only did it avoid major losses from our side, it also caught an opponent off guard.

The Black Hawk Army infantry squadron, who thought the Kingdom defenders suffered heavy losses under the tricks played by their artillery, ran towards the main position of the Death Company with a charge formation.

However, the MG42 was beaten to the face of peach blossoms blooming after being roared again.

At least a dozen Black Hawks fell on their charge.

However, this time the Black Hawks' attack was much more resolute. Although the losses were considerable, they still stubbornly advanced towards the position. Moreover, the firepower of the heavy machine gun hiding behind suddenly increased. The MG42 machine gun, which lost the cover of the castle, was much more difficult than before, which could shoot without any scruples.

At the moment when the breeze blew away the smoke, the Black Hawk Army's ten grenade-bolt teams hid five hundred meters away and began to bombard several firepower points on the position that dared to open fire.

Because the distance is too far, the five or six precise shooters who were specially prepared in a row of specially prepared grenade launchers were helpless. Moreover, the Black Hawk Army's grenade launchers were very cunning. After being attacked by several grenade launchers in a row, they all shot and changed places, which made the three grenade launchers in the row of death teams in the row of death and had no choice but to bombard the Black Hawk Army's light and heavy machine guns, trying their best to relieve the pressure on the fire point.

However, the firepower points gathered by the Black Hawk Army still suppressed several main firepower points of the Death Company, and the Black Hawk Army infantry crawled forward gradually approached the main position of the Death Company.

"Okay, the kingdom people can't hold on anymore. Continue to invest in their troops and take down the position for this attack. The division commander is no longer anxious." Major General Yu Jia, who put down his telescope in the temporary command center of the 3rd Battalion of the 16th Brigade, showed joy and said with a smile to the major beside him.

"Yes." The 3rd Battalion Major bowed to his immediate superior and turned to the commander next to him: "Order the 1st Squadron of the former Lieutenant to join the battle, tell him and the Captain, and I and the Brigade Commander are waiting for their good news here. The Division Commander will be very happy to see the flag of my 3rd Battalion in thirty minutes later in the kingdom."

The addition of more than 100 Black Hawk Empires made the already extremely stressed row of positions even more exhausted. In just thirty minutes of battle, the row actually lost fifteen soldiers, five of which were killed, and eight of them were seriously injured. Two soldiers who were slightly injured and unwilling to go down could only help hand over grenades and bullets.

The casualty rate in the row was as high as 30%.

"Reinforcement, I need reinforcement." A platoon leader pulled the trigger hard at the Black Hawks, roaring.

"Company Commander, let's fire! The first platoon can't hold on anymore." Hearing a row of communication soldiers hurriedly running to Zhou Shiyu for reinforcements, the machine cannon platoon leader couldn't help it.

"It's not time to be urgent, you have to hide it for me." Zhou Shiyu mercilessly refused the request of the cannon platoon leader.

He frowned and walked back and forth for two steps, and his brows spread out, "Communication Soldier, ordered Zhan Datong to lead his row for another five minutes, and then abandoned the No. 1 position and retreated into No. 2 position."

Then he looked at the cannon platoon leader and said, "Old Zhang, how did you do the big slingshots you have made these days? Can you use them?"

"It works. I've been experimenting for two days, so I'm sure I'll be inseparable!"
