Amidst the deafening sound of artillery fire, a military truck painted in camouflage bumped in the pitted trenches and finally stopped next to Xiang Ziyu's headquarters.
This truck was fully loaded with anti-tank missiles shipped directly from Bunas Airport. The shells of the missiles still smelled of aviation fuel. This was undoubtedly a timely help for the Tang Army who was holding on to its position.
Each missile is carefully fixed in the ammunition box, like a silent steel behemoth, waiting for the moment to be released. For the defender, weapons and ammunition are a guarantee of combat effectiveness, and against steel behemoths such as tanks
, anti-tank missiles are obviously a top priority.
The Tang Army's strong logistical support capabilities were fully demonstrated at this moment. Relying on their powerful air transport capabilities, they were able to provide sufficient ammunition and various supplies for more than 20,000 troops, ensuring that frontline soldiers had no worries.
During the intermission of the battle, there was a rare calm on the position. After three hours of fierce attack, the artillery of the Lines Empire seemed to need a good rest.
Seeing his soldiers eating convenience food and checking weapons and equipment, Xiang Ziyu was still in a very calm mood. He could be sure that as long as there was sufficient ammunition, no enemy would be able to cross the defense line of their Tang paratroopers.
There are a lot of weapons and ammunition needed to hold the position, and anti-tank missiles used to deal with big guys like tanks are obviously relatively important.
The good news is that the Tang Army does have very strong transportation and supply capabilities. It can provide more than 20,000 troops with sufficient ammunition and various supplies by air transportation.
The Tang army in the position had enough convenience food and ammunition to consume, so the fierce battle was not as scary as they imagined.
On the other hand, the situation on the Lions Empire's side was a bit passive. They lost so many troops during the attack that Emperor Lions II began to feel sick after hearing the loss report.
There is no way, the attacking troops are all elites of the Lions Empire, otherwise they would not be able to maintain such high morale and have such a firm will to fight.
Now these troops are consumed in the offensive battle, losing thousands of people every day... Despite this, the troops of the Lions Empire still haven't even seen the top of the city of Bunas.
Time has passed day after day. Although the defense line of the Tang Empire seems to be shaky, everyone knows that they will inevitably grow bigger and stronger.
Once the Tang Army is allowed to calm down, things will become lively: Maybe the Tang Army, hurt by the beating, will change the focus of its strategic attack and hit the Lanes Empire hard in the direction of Yucheng first.
Over Bunas Airport, several transport planes roared past, and the air flow stirred by the propellers made the flags on the simple tarmac rustle. These C-130 transport planes are here to transport ammunition, and they have the lowest requirements for the airport runway, so
Undertaken a lot of transportation work.
In order to protect the absolute safety of these transport planes, Xiao Yun temporarily transported 4 sets of anti-aircraft missile systems to strengthen the air defense force of Bunas Airport. He knew that these transport planes sent more than just supplies to the Bunas defenders.
, and even more hope.
"Boom!" A deafening explosion sounded in my ears. A shell dragged a long tail flame, drew a death arc in the air, and hit the front of the position hard. The air waves generated by the explosion shook the soil.
Throwing it up high, it formed black mushroom clouds.
The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke, mixed with the smell of earth and burnt, which was nauseating. Xiang Ziyu dropped the uneaten hamburger at his feet, grabbed the assault rifle placed on the edge of the trench, and crouched.
Move quickly to the observation port.
He squinted his eyes and observed the enemy situation in the distance through the diffuse smoke. On the open plain in the distance, the troops of the Lines Empire were slowly advancing towards the high ground where they were located, like a black tide.
Dozens of steel behemoths were lined up in a row, forming a torrent of steel. The thick barrels shone with cold light. They were the armored troops of the Lions Empire. Under the sunlight, they exuded an icy murderous aura.
Behind the tanks were densely packed infantrymen, who were advancing slowly with rifles with bayonets inserted, like black ants, slowly but surely approaching the high ground.
This was the most common infant-tank coordination tactic in World War II. It was simple and crude but very effective, and the army of the Lines Empire seemed to only know this tactic.
"A bunch of idiots, do they think they can take over our position like this?" Ziyu sneered in his heart. As long as the enemy's tanks are destroyed, these infantrymen will become lambs to be slaughtered. This attack is destined to end again.
Their failure ended.
"Let the anti-tank troops prepare!" Xiang Ziyu gave the order to the communicator, his calm voice filled with unquestionable majesty.
As soon as he finished speaking, a section of trench not far ahead was covered by intensive artillery fire. Explosions were heard one after another, flames shot into the sky, and soil and gravel were blown up into the sky, and then fell down like raindrops.
Not only the front, but also the commanding heights behind were violently bombarded by enemy artillery fire. The deafening explosions echoed in the ears, as if the whole world was to be torn apart. Obviously, the closer to the last moment, the harder the opponent became.
It's crazy.
Obviously, the other party also gave a death order and must capture Xiang Ziyu's position in this attack. In the absence of better tactics, all the commanders of the Lions Empire could do was to send more troops.
A lot of quantity.
It's a pity that they underestimated the tenacious paratroopers of the Tang Empire after all. They huddled in foxholes and trenches, waiting for their fighting moment.
The paratroopers of the Tang Army who have gone through countless battles have long been accustomed to this situation. They were born to be surrounded, and they have been defeating the strong with the weak since the day they were born.
When the enemy was still 700 to 800 meters away from their defensive positions, the anti-tank fighters of the Tang Army had already aimed their anti-tank missiles at distant targets.
To them, these tanks were targets standing still, lambs waiting to be slaughtered on the chopping block. With a short muffled sound, anti-tank missiles dragged white smoke towards those poor targets.
They have already locked onto these Lions tanks, and no matter whether the opponent stops or turns, they can no longer escape the fate of being hunted.
Soon one explosion after another engulfed the advancing tanks of the Lions Empire, turning these steel behemoths into balls of bursting and burning flames.
