Xiang Ziyu pointed his assault rifle at the Mirage soldiers in the distance and emptied his magazine, then turned around and waved to the soldiers behind him: "Retreat!"
"Thud, tug, tug!" After hearing the order, the light machine gun team behind him fired up the remaining half of the ammunition chain and immediately began to move its position.
"Smoke bomb! Use smoke bomb!" He pulled a cylindrical grenade from his chest, pulled off the ring, and threw it out. Xiang Ziyu ordered loudly while flipping out from the other side of the trench.
road.
He tried his best to let everyone hear his orders. At this time, he didn't care whether any Mirage soldiers could hear his voice.
The paratroopers threw smoke bombs one after another, and the white smoke dispersed on the battlefield, seriously affecting the sight of both sides. For the paratroopers, this was also a signal to retreat. They turned out of their hiding places and fled towards the ruins of the village.
.
There are friendly forces there to support them, and theoretically they can rely on the ruins of the village to hold on for a while. But speaking of it, it is already their last line of defense.
"Bang!" A Mirage soldier chased out of the smoke, raised his gun and was about to fire at the retreating paratroopers, when a Tang Empire paratrooper sniper ambushing in the ruins of the village shot him in the head.
The second Mirage soldier who rushed out of the smoke was also hit by a sniper, and then the remaining Mirage soldiers stopped rushing out of the smoke. They were busy occupying the positions vacated by the Tang army and consolidating their victory.
.
They have occupied this place, and as long as they stabilize their position, it means they are only one step away from capturing Leping. Therefore, from inside the smoke, the crazy cheers of the Mirage soldiers can be heard.
After running all the way behind a collapsed wall on the edge of the village, Xiang Ziyu saw his deputy company commander. He was panting. After all, escaping was not an easy task: "When the smoke clears, I guess the other party will try to come over."
.”
"Don't worry, company commander, we are all ready." The deputy company commander has arranged everything in advance. They also have two RPG rockets and several anti-tank grenades, so they can still hold on for a while.
A while.
"The battalion commander just sent someone here. He said that there will be airdrops of supplies at around three o'clock in the afternoon. We must hold on." The deputy company commander handed Xiang Ziyu a kettle, and Xiang Ziyu took the rest of it.
Drink all the water in one gulp.
He wiped his mouth and said to the deputy company commander: "If we continue to fight like this, we will probably die here before the afternoon."
"I hope none of us will die." The deputy company commander took the empty kettle from Xiang Ziyu and screwed on the lid: "I heard there was a good fight on the beach."
"That's good, at least our sacrifice is meaningful." Xiang Ziyu finally heard the good news: "Spread out as much as possible, the other party is really good at bombing villages."
If the attack on the beach does not go smoothly, then the persistence of these paratroopers in Leping is meaningless. Now that they know that the attack on the beach direction is good, it at least proves that they are sacrificing for the victory of the entire battle.
Among the ruins, a Tang Army sniper wearing a ghillie suit remained motionless, waiting for the target to arrive. There was an observer beside him, helping to guard the area directly ahead.
Yes, their position is on the flank of the main position. It is slightly higher here, and there is a ruins of a house to hide.
Seeing the figure of a goblin soldier becoming clearer in the gradually dispersing smoke, the Tang Army's sniper did not hesitate and pointed his sight directly at the unlucky man.
He steadied his breathing and pulled the trigger with his finger. At a distance of about eighty or ninety meters, the shot penetrated the mirage soldier's helmet very accurately.
The bullet penetrated the opponent's helmet, bringing out blood and brain matter. The goblin crooked and fell beside the trench. Next to him lay the body of a Tang Empire paratrooper.
Yes, this goblin was just rummaging through the corpses of Tang soldiers, but before he could find anything, he was killed by a sniper.
Immediately afterwards, the Tang Army's snipers once again aimed their guns at a goblin who was climbing out of the trench and preparing to follow an advancing tank.
With a crisp gunshot, the goblin fell directly next to the tank, his helmet rolling on the ground like half a ball.
"Thirty-five!" Pulling the bolt, the paratrooper sniper let out a soft grunt. This was the 35th target he had killed. This number gave him a sense of accomplishment.
A metal cartridge case fell next to him. He pushed the bolt, loaded a new bullet, took aim again, and pulled the trigger.
"Bang!" Once again, accompanied by sharp gunshots, a goblin soldier was shot and fell to the ground. He seemed to be struggling to get up, but the blood on his body could not be stopped. He struggled twice and finally fell to the ground.
There was no movement on the ground.
"Thirty-sixth!" The sniper pulled the bolt again and found that his magazine was empty. He had to take out the bullets and load them into the magazine one by one.
The new sniper rifle is good in everything, with high accuracy and good ballistics, but the loading method really makes people complain: sometimes they really like semi-automatic rifles like the G43, although the accuracy is much worse, but
The continuous shooting ability is really good.
Because there were too many people during the attack, the soldiers of the Mirage Army did not care about a few unlucky guys who died from sniper rifles. Under the urging of the officers, they launched a new round of attack, trying to take advantage of the Tang Army's paratroopers' unstable foothold.
Drive the paratroopers out of Leping Village.
However, they soon discovered that they had made the wrong calculation: the sound of machine guns suddenly sounded, and the attack was thwarted again. After more than forty corpses were left behind, the Mirage's attack was repelled again.
But this time, the mirage army did not retreat too far. They only retreated to the trenches left by the paratroopers and stopped.
Then more Mirage soldiers came to the front line as reinforcements, and seven or eight tanks came over at the same time.
"They must have guessed that we have no more artillery shells." Seeing that those tanks were within the range of the mortars, Xiang Ziyu complained with some regret.
If they still had seven or eight rounds of artillery shells, the Mirage Army would probably lose several more tanks in one round of shooting. Their mortar shells would have been exhausted more than an hour ago.
Not only the mortars, but in the fierce battle just now, they also used up all their explosives before retreating.
"Someone is coming with a white flag!" The sharp-eyed soldier shouted to Xiang Ziyu: "Company Commander! Look over there! There is a goblin coming with a white flag!"
"Ha! You can't beat us, surrender?" The deputy company commander immediately became energetic. He really saw a Mirage officer, waving a white flag in his hand, walking towards him one step at a time.
"What a beautiful thought. If you were the commander of the other party in this situation, would you surrender?" Xiang Ziyu sneered.
Sure enough, after the Mirage officer was brought to Xiang Ziyu, he explained his purpose: "Your tenacity has left a deep impression on us. In fact, you are already very brave. We admire..."
"If you just came to praise us, you can go back now. We know how powerful we are." Xiang Ziyu laughed, and the soldiers around him also laughed.
"I'm here to persuade you to surrender. If you are willing to lay down your weapons, we will treat the prisoners well. If you are willing to stay and serve the Mirage Kingdom, then we will give you a price that satisfies you." The Mirage Army officer said again with great momentum.
He opened his mouth and explained his purpose of coming.
"I need to think about this. Let's do this. You guys wait for my news. I'll give you an accurate message in two hours. What do you think?" Xiang Ziyu deliberately flipped his wrist and flashed his watch.
He continued to say with a smile.
The surrounding soldiers were suppressing laughter. It was obvious that they all knew that Xiang Ziyu was teasing the Mirage officer in front of him who came to persuade him to surrender.
"I'm not joking with you, sir." The Mirage officer was a little annoyed, and he threatened: "If you reject our kindness, then only destruction awaits you!"
"Okay, I changed my mind." Xiang Ziyu nodded: "No need to think about it, I can tell you the answer now... We refuse to surrender because we are Datang paratroopers."
"Oh!" "Hahaha!" Some of the soldiers around cheered, and some laughed excitedly. They were not afraid of death because they were paratroopers of the Tang Dynasty.
"Company Commander, does your wife know you are so handsome?" A soldier asked with a laugh, holding a rifle. His shoulder was wrapped in a bandage, and some bright red blood even seeped out.
"Hahahaha!" The other soldiers laughed, and someone shouted in the distance: "I will kill you all and go to hell to repent! Bastards! Go and repent to the wronged souls of Beiyuan City!"
"Go away! You beast!" Xiang Ziyu tilted his head: "Go back before I change my mind."
In infinite fear, the Mirage officer grabbed the white flag and ran out of the village. As soon as he ran about fifteen meters away, Xiang Ziyu said to the deputy company commander beside him: "I changed my mind."
Without any hesitation, the deputy company commander raised his rifle, pointed it at the Mirage officer's back, and pulled the trigger.
"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and the Mirage officer fell to the ground, struggled a few times and then stopped moving. Xiang Ziyu hid in the ruins and shouted with all his strength: "This is our answer!
Bastards!"
"Grandpa is waiting here! Come and die if you dare!" On the position, the paratroopers shouted one after another. It was not until the mirage army's artillery shells rained down that these mocking shouts stopped.
Afterwards, the Tang army no longer cared about provocation, because they had to use all their remaining strength to deal with the tanks that were rushing forward.
