A No. 4 tank was driving staggeringly in the wilderness. The hatch cover was opened by the people inside, and an ugly orc head poked out of the tank, holding up a telescope vigilantly.
He saw the village in the distance, and also saw some seemingly invisible trenches and fortifications in front of the village.
Immediately behind the No. 4 tank was a Type 113 armored vehicle. On the front of the vehicle was a skull with fangs, which was the skull of a male orc.
Because my artistic ability is really limited, this skull is really ugly. The orc’s face is already ugly enough, but this hole looks even uglier...
Several Orc soldiers jumped out of the armored vehicle while holding on to the M35 helmets on their heads. They quickly dispersed and searched for easy-to-hidden terrain around them.
"No enemy found! It's very quiet around here." The tank commander shouted to the armored vehicle commander who had just opened the hatch of the armored vehicle and stuck his head out.
The commander of the armored vehicle gave a thumbs up to show that he had seen it very clearly. It was indeed very quiet on the other side, but it was not a good thing to be so quiet on the only way to the Mirage City.
Yes, their attacking team was the first orc force to launch an attack on the Mirage King's City. Behind them, more orc troops were following.
After compressing the goblin troops in the central fortification area into a very small area, Shanru began to deploy his troops and tentatively launched an attack on the core of the goblins, the Royal City Mirage.
The leader of the battle is still the famous 1st Orc Armored Division, but this unit is now mixed with a large number of infantry to form familiar combat groups.
Although the Tang Army did not teach this aspect of combat experience, the orcs still summed up their own set of tactics in the cruel war.
Different paths lead to the same goal. This set of tactics is almost exactly the same as the previous formation of the Tang Empire's battle group. It is also because the orcs have realized the importance of communication in actual combat.
In order to make it easier for troops to mobilize, tanks and armored vehicles carrying radios have become the communication core of each combat group.
This kind of combat team is easier to mobilize separately than infantry and armor in the past, and can respond to the battlefield situation more intuitively and quickly. It has gradually become the "killer" and "little trick" of the orc army.
A soldier walked to the side slope, raised his binoculars, and looked at the mirage army position in the distance. Outside the village, there were some fences made of wood, and he didn't know what they were for.
Ever since the goblin troops began to lack supplies, they often came up with some weird things to block the progress of the orc troops.
Sometimes there are logs laid across the road, sometimes abandoned car wrecks are used to block the road, and sometimes like now, wood is nailed into some weird obstacles, and I don't know what they are used for.
There is no way, the goblins no longer have anything like barbed wire to use, they can only use the wood that can be found everywhere, and other things to strengthen their defenses.
In a war, you certainly can't refuse to join the battle just because you don't have the weapons and equipment at hand, so most of the time soldiers can only find whatever they can find to arm themselves.
If there are no cotton-padded clothes in winter, soldiers will cut up their own military blankets and stuff them into their clothes to keep warm. Sometimes they will also use waste paper and wear more summer clothes. In short, no matter how embarrassed they are, it is better than
Better to freeze to death.
By the same token, what should we do if there is no barbed wire or reinforced concrete? Just use wood and big rocks. In short, use everything you can find to cause trouble for the enemy. This is war! Cruel war.
"It shows on the map! We are still 22 kilometers away from Mirage City!" Opening the map, the commander of the armored vehicle determined his position.
A lion-type wheeled armored reconnaissance vehicle also caught up. This was an early model that was eliminated by the Tang Empire. It was equipped with a short-barreled 75mm caliber cannon. The orcs were reluctant to use it for armored reconnaissance, so they
It was mixed into the army and used as support artillery.
Along with this wheeled armored vehicle, two cars arrived. An Orc soldier rode a motorcycle behind a truck, and behind it was a field jeep full of soldiers.
In order to bring as many soldiers as possible, two people sat on the front hood of the jeep. There were actually nine orc infantry crammed into the field jeep carrying four people.
In addition to a spare tire hanging on the back of the car, there were also two huge canvas bags containing ammunition, and a huge field tent.
The soldiers who got off the truck became even more lively. More than twenty soldiers jumped off one after another and began to organize their weapons and distribute excess ammunition.
"The enemy's situation is unknown!" An infantry platoon leader waved his arms and briefly introduced the situation to the soldiers who were checking their guns and ammunition. Now that they have adapted to the rhythm of war, they can be said to be very elite infantry.
After all, after possessing the weapons and equipment provided by the Tang Empire, the hardware of the Orc troops has been greatly improved. Coupled with the cover of the Datang Air Force, the casualty rate of the Orc troops has actually been controlled to a very low level.
If fewer people die, there will naturally be more veterans. With more veterans, tactical experience will be accumulated. As an army begins to inherit experience, its combat effectiveness will inevitably gradually increase.
The orc troops have continuously improved their combat experience and level during the war! The more their veterans fight, the more experienced the troops become.
"There is a field on the side. The terrain is too open. It is easy to be attacked from there!" A veteran gave his opinion.
"Walk along the roadbed beside the field and follow the lion stance! If you are attacked by the enemy, retreat back! Stop fighting." The platoon leader ordered to a squad leader: "Disperse the formation! Pay attention to covering each other!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Tanks attack from the front! We are following you! If the opponent has anti-tank guns, you immediately back up and retreat!" After the flank attacking infantry squad set off, the platoon leader
He quickly climbed onto the No. 4 tank and discussed the attack plan with the commander.
"Release smoke! Use rifle grenades!" After jumping off the tank, the platoon leader made a rifle grenade gesture to his two men.
The two soldiers immediately dug into their pockets and found special blank rounds for launching grenades, and then took out ancient rifle grenades from their waists.
This kind of grenade is completely different from the grenades hung under the assault rifle used by the Tang Army. They are mounted on the muzzle and fired, and are the equipment used by the Tang Army in the early days.
The two men placed their rifle butts on the ground, pointed their muzzles upwards, and aimed at the village in the distance. Then they pulled the triggers and fired two grenades.
With two muffled bangs, the grenade flew out and landed at the edge of the village, bursts of white smoke began to float out. The white smoke obscured the sight of both parties. The Orcs' No. 4 tank started and approached the quiet village first.
.
The orc troops that followed formed a relatively dispersed formation. The strong orc warriors carried the MG42 machine gun, letting the bullet chain hang on the gun and swinging back and forth, and quickly ran to a relatively good position.
.
He lay down, unfolded the bipod, set up the machine gun, and observed the presence or absence of smoke on the other side.
Suddenly, a gunshot startled everyone, and everyone was disrupted by the sudden gunshot. Some people fell down on the spot, and some hurriedly found bunkers. Only the tank was still moving forward, and a few people following the tank
The soldiers did not stop.
"Who fired the gun?" The platoon leader poked his head out from behind the tank and shouted loudly to his soldiers. No one answered, and then the roar of the Maxim machine gun, which was familiar to the orcs, began.
"Goblin!" An orc soldier hid in a pothole and loudly reminded his comrades when he felt bullets flying above his head.
Soon the gunfire on the battlefield became fierce. Perhaps because of fear, the goblins were firing into the smoke.
To be honest, the orc troops had not seen such sufficient firepower from the goblins for a long time. The goblin troops in the direction of Dingcheng did not have much ammunition before they completely collapsed.
The Lion armored vehicle on the flank fired a shot at the village, and then used the radio in its vehicle to provide good target instructions to the Orc troops attacking from the front.
The Orc troops took advantage of this field of view to bypass the opponent's machine gun point where they were firing, and approached the opponent's defense line from the side.
"The opponent's machine gun is about 150 meters in front of you! You can't see clearly what time it is!" On the radio, the voice of the commander of the Orc armored vehicle kept confirming the target's location.
Some goblin troops were trying to support the trenches outside the village, but as soon as they ran out, they were shot back by the armored vehicle's second shot.
After being hit by a howitzer and with three or four people dead, the goblin troops retreated to the village in embarrassment. At this time, they didn't seem to notice that some orc troops had already circled their flanks under the roadbed behind the orc armored vehicles.
"The opponent did not build flank fortifications! They are very amateur! Very amateur!" After confirming the opponent's position layout, the orc troops became even more excited.
The opponent was much more amateurish than the city's defenders, and their positions were too poorly laid out. The orcs, who had already gained confidence, took advantage of their weaknesses.
The orcs who were taking a roundabout way quickly reached a closer position. At this time, it seemed that the goblins discovered the Lion armored vehicle that they had been firing from the side.
They organized seven or eight people and tried to come over to see what was going on. However, before they could get close to the armored vehicle, they were hit by the orc flanking troops approaching.
Relying on the fact that they had a Thompson submachine gun, the orc troops opened fire immediately. The goblins were completely stunned by the sudden appearance of the orc troops. They abandoned their helmets and armor and fled in panic, without even figuring out how many orc troops there were on the flanks.
