"For His Majesty the Mirage Emperor! Charge!" With a hysterical cry, the Mirage soldiers came out from the deep mountains and forests and charged towards the orc troops.
The soldiers lurking nearby also screamed and got up from the ground. It was getting late. If they didn't get up quickly, they would easily be trampled to death by their comrades rushing behind them.
These troops climbed to this position little by little in order to launch a sudden attack and make the orc troops lose their firepower advantage.
But they still underestimated the preparations of the orc troops, and intensive gunfire immediately rang out, and flares flew into the sky amidst the roar of mortars.
Suddenly, the surrounding area was as bright as day, and the whereabouts of the goblins were clearly illuminated. The orc troops that were close at hand began to shoot. Those goblins who had approached the orc position immediately fell in pieces.
"Charge!" After advancing one after another, these goblin soldiers still did not flinch. This was their breakout battle. As long as they broke through the orcs' defense line, they could still return to the arms of their friendly forces!
It's just that no one told them that the Mirage troops closest to them were basically trapped beasts in another "encirclement" in the direction of the Mirage.
Although Mirage City has not yet been completely surrounded, it is surrounded on two sides and close to the sea on the other side. The city is now no different from being surrounded.
Breaking out of the fortification area in the middle to get to the Mirage City requires walking nearly 100 kilometers. Such a long distance is no longer a problem that can be solved by breaking out.
This distance is strategically considered a large-scale attack. If the Mirage troops are able to break through the orcs' defense line and advance 100 kilometers, then why not waste their time by directly choosing a strategic counterattack...
Therefore, in fact, these mirage troops that broke through the encirclement had no chance of winning. The mirage Haiping was just trying to find a way to "most consume the enemy" for all the troops in the encirclement before total collapse.
As for the so-called way out for these people... Mirage Haiping didn't consider it at all. He didn't even leave any way out for himself, so what way out would he consider for others?
The chainsaw sound of the MG42 machine gun was very recognizable when it echoed on the battlefield, and the dense tracer bullets instantly silenced the swarms of mirage troops.
There were screams and wails everywhere, cries and begging for mercy everywhere, and the mirage army had begun to collapse without even realizing it.
"General! The troops on the left have lost contact." The adjutant walked to Mirage Haiping's side and reported to his superior who was observing the battlefield with binoculars.
The army was in chaos, with broken and attacking troops everywhere, and almost no means of instant communication. Mirage Haiping basically lost control of the battlefield situation the moment the attack began.
This is the fundamental gap between garrison troops and field troops: garrison troops can set up telephone lines and have strong anti-interference capabilities. As long as there is power support, the entire mobilization command system is complete.
Field troops test a unit's battlefield awareness, adaptability, and real-time communication capabilities. Almost all units in the Mirage Army do not have field combat capabilities, so the overall performance of the Mirage Army in field conditions is very poor.
"Continue to attack! As long as we break through... we can turn to the southeast... and kill the Mirage City!" Mirage Haiping continued to paint a picture that even he himself did not believe.
Unfortunately, most of his troops could no longer hear his voice. In this case, the order could not be conveyed at all.
The attacking troops relied entirely on their own courage and determination to carry out the combat orders issued by Mirage before setting off.
The defeated troops collapsed only because they could not hold on and could not continue fighting... Everyone had a cause and effect, but they could no longer adapt to changes.
In fact, Mirage Haiping has also seen the problem: Signal troops sent out will basically never come back. Even if the signal troops come back reluctantly, they can't actually bring back any good news.
Some troops were attacking fiercely, but with little success. They asked for support, but Mirage Haiping had no reserves to send to them.
Other troops have been defeated and they are no longer able to carry out orders, but the signal corps cannot force them to order them, so they can only bring the news back to Mirage Haiping.
Under such circumstances, what does Mirage Haiping do to command the troops? Just like twenty years ago, send his own confidants to supervise the war? To force the troops to continue fighting? Are you kidding me?
So Mirage Haiping can only stand here, waiting for an ending, an ending that belongs to him, and an ending that belongs to his troops.
On the battlefield, an armored vehicle in the Orc army responsible for hauling supplies and transporting personnel relied on a machine gun with a steel plate shield to absolutely crush the attacking mirage army.
The machine gun on it fired condescendingly and continuously for ten minutes. The Mirage troops were unable to eliminate this firepower point.
There really is no good way, and things like stabbing thunder are completely useless when attacking: Do you think holding an indestructible spear on a modern battlefield is of no use?
Therefore, the anti-tank fighters who were deployed before the operation could not even get close to the defense line of the orc troops, and were killed on the way.
As for the stinging mines they threw away, no one would pick them up and use them: the reason why the death squads are called death squads is because they dare to die... those who dare to die have died, how can those who dare not die take the top?
?
From 90 o'clock to 11 o'clock, the attack continued, and the mirage army finally began to lose strength. They only had more than 10,000 people, and they could not be used up for long under the massacre of machine guns.
Although ten bullets were distributed to each of the troops who broke through, which was considered "enough" ammunition, the Mirage soldiers who had been trapped in the encirclement for such a long time were no longer able to maintain their complete victory.
Frankly speaking, the fact that they could still be organized and launch such a desperate counterattack proved that they were very elite.
As for expecting these mirage troops to be able to defeat the orc army surrounding them after being tortured for such a long time, then the requirements for them are really too harsh.
On the front line on the left side of the mirage army, the sound of gunfire began to become sparse. It was originally a feint attack direction, and the orcs also occupied a high ground and had an absolute advantage, so they naturally defeated the fastest.
Hearing that the fighting on the flanks gradually calmed down, Mirage Haiping's face paled a little. He licked his dry lips and ordered: "Move the headquarters forward 300 meters! Tell the troops that I will live and die with them!"
With no reserve and no possibility of providing more support, Mirage Haiping decided to use his own actions to inspire his soldiers.
"General!" The adjutant was a little anxious. He was not afraid that Mirage Haiping would die in the battle, because it was not unusual for anyone to die in battle at this time. What he was afraid of was... Mirage Haiping was captured!
The Mirage Kingdom only has two generals, one naval general and one army general. In this case, if the naval general Mirage Haiping is captured, it will definitely be a slap in the face of the Mirage Emperor.
"If I am wounded, you shoot me to death! If the enemy comes close, you must also shoot me to death! If the army is defeated tonight, I will seek dignity for myself!" Mirage Haiping certainly knew that his adjutant was shouting, stop.
Knowing what he was doing, he calmly appeased the other party.
After hearing what Mirage Haiping said, the adjutant also knew that the other party would definitely die, so he felt relieved and stopped talking.
Soon, Mirage Haiping's headquarters began to move forward, with guard troops guarding the surroundings. From time to time, rebel soldiers could be seen passing by them.
After some people saw the mirage subsided, they silently returned to the battlefield, while others didn't care at all and ran back with their weapons in hand.
Previously, the guard troops shot and killed a defeated soldier, but Mirage Haiping later ordered not to do so. The first was that they wanted to save bullets, and the second was because the defeat was almost unstoppable.
If we continue to crush the defeated troops, it will easily lead to internal strife, which will only make the situation worse. Therefore, Mirage Haiping just led the guard troops forward and let go of the escapees who had no intention of fighting anymore.
"Boom!" A mortar shell fell down and hit the edge of Mirage Haiping's unit. Apparently under the light of the illumination bomb, the orc troops also discovered this large group of goblin troops.
Since there are so many people, use artillery shells to greet them! There are currently no large-caliber artillery shells, but there are still many small-caliber mortars.
Several 80mm caliber mortar shells fell, and Mirage Haiping's headquarters could no longer bear it. The guard force lost a lot of people, and some officers were also injured.
Mirage Haiping glanced at his adjutant and then at the situation on the battlefield. He smiled bitterly and said, "My suicide note has been sent to Mirage City before. You can shoot."
"Admiral!" At this time, it was the adjutant's turn to be a little nervous. In his opinion, the matter has not reached the last moment... Shooting and killing the commander-in-chief of a country's navy is easy to say, but it is actually very difficult to do.
"Shoot!" Mirage Haiping emphasized his tone. Originally, he wanted to kill himself, but in the end he still didn't have the courage. So he could only order others: "Shoot!"
The adjutant finally pulled out the pistol from his waist, and then pulled the trigger on Mirage Haiping's chest: "Boom! Boom! Boom!"
He fired three shots in one go. Under the dull gazes of the guards, Mirage stumbled and fell to the ground, but he was not completely dead yet.
The admiral pointed at himself, but he no longer had the strength to speak. The adjutant nodded and fired two more shots at him.
After five shots, the commander-in-chief of the Mirage Navy opened his eyes and stopped breathing. General Mirage Haiping... finally finished his life.
