Nine hundred and sixty-first chapters use ice to destroy the enemy
"It's a rocket, try to dodge and keep charging!"
A captain with sharp eyes spotted the flying object and said without fear.
They have a numerical advantage. Besides, after being hit by a rocket, unless it is fatally injured, they only need to fall to the ground or roll, and the cold ice will be enough to extinguish the fire without causing any harm.
serious injury.
The general leading the team thought that nothing would happen, and thought that the rockets released by the Chinese army were just an emergency measure. Little did he know that the reason why the rockets appeared here was just to light up the ice. In fact, there were more powerful ones.
The backhand is waiting for them.
"The enemy is found, the bombardier is ready, throw it!"
"cast!"
The voice of a famous battalion company commander sounded like a shout, and he pulled the grenades that he had obtained from the 1st Firearms Brigade and put them to use, throwing them towards the ice in the darkness by the light of the fire.
The South Vietnamese army, who didn't know all this, was still rushing forward. The closer they got to the other side, the closer they were to success, and they rushed harder. It seemed that victory was waving to them, waiting for them to reap the fruits.
Already.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden sound of something falling to the ground, but it was not very loud and did not seem to hurt anyone. But in the next breath, loud explosions suddenly sounded, causing what seemed to be an explosion.
The earth shook like a mountain.
Hand grenades are in the early stage of research, and their lethality is still limited. But please don't forget that they are now falling on the ice. And this ice was broken by Liu Chen and his army two days ago.
.
It's just that the weather has been cold and it has frozen again in the past two days. It's just that compared to before, the ice is not as strong. Now suddenly encountering a violent explosion, the somewhat weak ice has the tendency to break away.
.
"Vote again!"
In the darkness, another burst of grenades flew through the air and landed at the same point again. At this time, the thousands of South Vietnamese troops rushing at the front had already landed on the opposite side of the Fourth Army.
"Come on, victory is right in front of you." The first person to rush ashore was a South Vietnamese captain. He had just brought his men over on the body of his comrade, so he was a little faster. Now he saw the target right in front of him.
He was extremely excited and felt that he had to take the first credit.
However, just as he was shouting excitedly, there were waves of splashing sounds behind him. Needless to say, the ice layer was finally exploded.
Once the ice surface opened a corner, it began to expand rapidly. The South Vietnamese troops who happened to be standing nearby were not prepared at all. They just felt their feet loosen, and then they fell into the cold lake water.
It was still around 17 or 18 degrees above zero at night, and the temperature of the lake reached more than 30 degrees below zero, which was absolutely bone-chilling. If a person falls into it, unless he can be rescued immediately, otherwise, it will take a while.
Time will make your whole body stiff, and then you will lose consciousness and wait for death.
The ice surface suddenly cracked, and then broke through. Groups of soldiers fell into the lake. This scene was seen by the South Vietnamese army coming from behind. Under the strong inertia, some people could not stop the car at all and stepped forward.
Entered the lake.
But they were somewhat prepared after all. As soon as people entered the water, they instinctively wanted to climb out by pressing on the ice. Others stretched their hands upward, waiting for their colleagues to rescue them.
But they had no idea that after the ice broke, it was no longer as tough as before, especially since Liu Chen led people to break the ice as far as four miles away. Otherwise, where did the lake water on the ice come from?
Woolen cloth?
As long as it is within four miles, the ice surface is fragile. It is simply not strong enough to support people pressing their hands on it. In this way, the more they want to save themselves, the more ice they will break. Especially
Those who were kind-hearted and wanted to save their comrades were soon implicated, and the ice beneath their feet was broken, and more and more people fell into the lake.
If it happened during the day, everyone would just need to keep retreating when watching this happen. But this was at night, and the field of vision was limited. People coming from behind had no idea what was happening in front of them, and they were still constantly retreating.
The crowds came, which made the number of people who fell into the water increase.
In ancient times, there were seven armies that were flooded, but now there are frozen alien armies. This can be regarded as creating a history of war.
The scene that happened here was clearly seen by the captain of the South Vietnamese army, and his whole body became cold at that moment. Looking at the people around him, there were only a thousand people, and this was the final strength. Under such circumstances
It's impossible for anyone to come to support them.
Looking around again, more and more soldiers from the Quartet Army gathered around. Some of them held bows and arrows in their hands, and some held broadswords and spears in their hands, with smiles on their faces like clowns.
"No... don't kill so-and-so, so-and-so has surrendered." Seeing that the number of the Quartet Army was more than ten times, dozens of times greater than his own, the commander had no courage to fight again, so he immediately took the lead and threw his weapons.
On the ground, he chose to surrender.
The enemies on the shore were eliminated, and the war officially came to an end.
Finally, when more and more people fell into the water and the ice surface was opened wider and wider, finally reaching a distance of nearly four miles, the ice-breaking movement stopped.
There were a total of 20,000 South Vietnamese troops and 20,000 Dianzhou troops. In the end, only 10,000 people survived. About 5,000 people from each army fled backward quickly.
Just throwing some grenades and tens of thousands of bows and arrows, they killed nearly 30,000 enemies and captured a thousand authentic South Vietnamese. However, the Fourth Army itself did not even have a single injured soldier. This can be said to be
It is a miracle in the history of war.
In the big tent, Lei Ming and Liu Chen, who were playing chess, seemed not to hear the excitement outside. They were still concentrating on using their thoughts on the chessboard until the soldiers below came to report that the battle was over and the enemy was unknown.
, but at least not less than 20,000 people, and when they captured a thousand South Vietnamese soldiers, the two division-level officers put down the black and white chess pieces in their hands, looked at each other and laughed.
"Okay, well done. I'll send a letter of victory here to His Majesty right away. Also tell the First Firearms Brigade to let them fight with confidence." Liu Chen laughed.
Lei Ming also smiled and acknowledged all this. Then, he turned around and walked towards the wooden bed in the tent. Don't look at the fact that he didn't show any nervousness on his face, but in fact, he had been there since he accepted this task.
Never relaxed.
Now that he is better, and during the day, he has destroyed nearly half of the enemy, and he can finally have a good rest. Next, with the enemy's small strength, even if he does not use any strategies, he is not afraid of fighting openly and openly. Kishi
There was a sound of joy here, but on the other side, there were bursts of silence and speechlessness.
Thirty thousand people were lost in one fell swoop. Adding in the losses during the day, only half of the 100,000 men were left. So even if the capital city was captured with these troops, how could it still be defended?
After losing in a row, some people had lost their fighting spirit and were already considering whether to retreat. However, when they looked at Qie Keming, who was still half lying on the wooden bed, they still did not dare to say these words.
Now their general has fallen into a state of madness and is only thinking about revenge. Now whoever dares to stand up and propose withdrawing troops may be pulled out and executed next.
No one spoke, and Qie Keming was so angry that he couldn't speak. All he could do was grit his teeth and bear the pain of both mind and body. Then he waved his hands helplessly, with a picture of you all.
The look of retreating.
Qie Keming's heart ached more and more. He already had a feeling that the Fourth Army in front of him was very difficult to deal with, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to get revenge. But the obsession in his heart still made him unable to let go. He just wanted to
If you still have a breath, you will not give up even the slightest chance.
...
Under the city of Shangdu.
It was already past midnight, and it was about to get brighter. This was the dark time before dawn.
Seeing that the new day's attack was about to begin, Brigadier Shen Ping'an got up early and looked deeply into the darkness ahead, which was the Shangdu City shrouded in black.
Today is the fifth day, and it is also the last day he promised to the Fourth Army.
In other words, after today, the Fourth Army will have completed its mission, and if it still cannot capture the upper capital, all the mistakes and problems will fall on itself.
But can it really be captured?
Shen Ping'an did not have full confidence in his heart. Until last night when the army stopped attacking the city, Shangdu City had no intention of being broken. The Qingzhou soldiers' determination to defend was beyond his previous expectations.
And after four consecutive days of siege, the soldiers were also very tired. I don’t know how many thunders were struck. The upper capital seemed to be crumbling, but it did not collapse. It is indeed the first place of Qingzhou, and the city is very solid.
It makes people feel even more depressed.
"Are you up so early?" At some point, Chief of Staff Sun Zhuo stood beside him.
"Well, I got up when I couldn't sleep." Shen Ping'an nodded and replied.
"Are you worried about not being able to capture the city, whether the Fourth Army can hold it, or whether it will implicate them?" Sun Zhuo opened his mouth and asked a series of questions, which were all on Shen Ping'an's mind now.
"Yeah." After thinking for a while, Shen Pingan nodded and admitted.
"Haha, the battle has reached this point. We have no way out. We can't retreat now, and it's too late. It's better to attack the city with all our strength. In any case, our decision is not wrong, and we have worked hard.
, that’s enough. Even if you die in battle, there’s nothing to regret, right?”
Listening to Sun Zhuo's voice of enlightenment, Shen Pingan's body trembled first, and then he nodded thoughtfully, "Yes, we have no way out, so let's attack the city with all our strength."
