Due to the resolution of the road problem, the Sichuan Army quickly approached the Great Pass. Since the Great Pass is named after the Pass, it means that the terrain here is difficult and easy to defend but difficult to attack. The Yunnan Army invested nearly 3,000 elite soldiers from Zhao Youxin here.
.
Qiao Yu, Jiang Baili and many senior officers were sitting in front of a huge military map. Jiang Baili was explaining the Yunnan Army's defense to everyone.
"Everyone, the terrain of Daguan can be summarized as high mountains, steep slopes, dense forests, rapid streams, and crisscrossing ravines. This terrain is extremely beneficial to the Yunnan Army defending one side. Zhao Youxin put a lot of effort into defense, and used three
The defensive fortifications built on the high ground as the core are covered with trenches, and some barbed wire fences are installed outside. Moreover, Zhao Youxin's troops are well-equipped with a large number of artillery and machine guns. They can be defended according to danger. It can be said that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Moreover, our army
The pass must be taken quickly, otherwise Zhaotong and a brigade of soldiers from Luo Peijin will soon be able to assist Zhao Youxin!"
After Jiang Baili finished speaking, Qiao Yu glanced at everyone again, "Everyone, it has been mostly cloudy these days and the fog is relatively heavy, so the air force has been greatly restricted. Everyone must be prepared for a tough battle and must be quick.
After capturing the Great Pass, Shi Yi’s third division will be the main attack force this time, with Wang Zanxu’s troops serving as supporting troops!”
"Yes!" Shi Yi and Wang Zanxu saluted together. It could be said that it was a huge trust to entrust them with the task of attacking the enemy this time. Both of them hurriedly went to prepare.
At dawn, the mountains were filled with fog, and the Sichuan army's offensive began. Since aircraft could not be dispatched, the leading role became the God of War artillery. Due to transportation problems, the 155mm howitzer was not deployed.
It has not been transported. Now Shi Yi only has four 120 mm cannons in his hands. The rest are all 75 mm caliber artillery. However, artillery of this level is enough. The maximum caliber of the Yunnan army on the opposite side is
105 mm mountain gun.
Moreover, this kind of mountain cannon was introduced from Sichuan. Although the caliber is not small, it is a pity that the range of this lightweight mountain cannon is only six kilometers, less than half of the Sichuan army cannon. Even the 75mm Krupp cannon can
It is superior in terms of range. The only thing worthy of praise for this kind of artillery is that it is light enough and easy to transport.
But during this kind of bombardment, the weaknesses were fully exposed. The Sichuan army concentrated sixty artillery pieces in order to attack the gate. The black muzzles were all pointed at the Yunnan Army's position, like giant beasts, opening their blood basins.
Big mouth, waiting to devour the living beings. After everything was prepared, the Sichuan Army's artillery fired the shells frantically towards the Yunnan Army's position. The earth shook amidst the sound of the artillery, the sky was covered by gunpowder smoke, and large chunks of soil were blasted into the air. Yunnan
The military position looked like half a piece of rag, reluctantly changing its shape under the heavy blows of the Sichuan army.
Zhao Youxin was also frightened at this time. In this round of shelling, hundreds of soldiers of the Yunnan Army had been killed. The Yunnan Army's artillery fired back a few times by chance, but it immediately attracted the attention of the Sichuan Army's artillery.
The extremely precious cannons were blown into parts, so the Yunnan army could only be beaten passively and did not dare to bombard the Sichuan army again.
Although the situation is critical, Zhao Youxin still maintains basic composure. After all, he has been operating in Daguan for a long time. His position is very strong and there are many fortifications. In addition, God seems to be on his side. Now that the fog is thick, the Sichuan army is the most deterrent.
The powerful air force was unable to participate in the war, which made Zhao Youxin feel relieved. The Yunnan Army really did not have any sharp weapon to compete with the air force.
After the artillery attack, the Sichuan Army soldiers began to attack the Yunnan Army's positions. Countless Sichuan Army soldiers formed a gray wave and rushed toward the Yunnan Army's positions in strict accordance with the formation of the three-by-three system.
The army, tempered in the most difficult environment, showed its due combat effectiveness at this time.
All the soldiers were extremely calm. Relying on the solid fortifications, they began to fire at the Sichuan Army. There were also many sharpshooters in the Yunnan Army. The Sichuan Army charging at the front was hit in the middle of the eyebrow by an oncoming bullet, and his skull was immediately torn apart.
, like a broken watermelon, blood was everywhere on the brain. Before the young soldier's body fell down immediately, the camera seemed to freeze, and the smell of blood in the air became much stronger.
The other soldiers ignored this partner at all. On this smoke-filled battlefield, they quickly shed their immaturity and began to become real warriors. They became indifferent. This indifference was not a perverted animality, but an instinct on the battlefield.
Pursuing efficiency, they knew how to achieve the greatest victory with the least casualties, and they still bent over tightly to avoid being hit by bullets.
There was also a barbed wire fence blocking them. Qiao Yu focused his attention on Europe. Many Chinese in this era also paid more attention to the situation on the European battlefield. Cai E was one of them. He knew the importance of the barbed wire fence.
After xing, a lot of preparations were made for defense. This time, a barbed wire fence was put up around the Ozeki position, which caused great trouble for the Sichuan army's attack.
However, the Sichuan army was well prepared. They first threw a dozen grenades together to blow up the barbed wire fence, and then used engineer shovels to split the remaining barbed wire fence. The whole process did not take much time.
After crossing the barbed wire fence and then crossing a ravine, the Sichuan Army quickly got closer and closer to the Yunnan Army's position. At this time, all the light and heavy machine guns of the Yunnan Army also opened fire, covering them with a dense rain of bullets, as fierce as the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
Suddenly, more than a dozen Sichuan Army soldiers fell on the charging road. At this time, the Sichuan Army soldiers no longer simply charged, but covered each other and began to suppress and fire at the Yunnan Army positions. At this time, the grenade became the most powerful weapon again.
Weapons and grenades were quickly fired towards the Yunnan Army's positions.
More than twenty grenades were fired every minute, and each grenade exploded in the Yunnan Army's position, like brilliant fireworks. However, these fireworks burned life, so they looked
Even more charming and moving, all the soldiers are dominated by something called adrenaline, forgetting fatigue and fear, focusing only on the enemy's position!
The battle situation seemed very fierce from the beginning. Zhao Youxin could not sit still at first. He was entrusted by Cai E and knew very well how much Cai E valued this Sichuan-Yunnan gateway. Cai E also knew that the Yunnan army could not stop the Sichuan army, but
Time must be delayed. Cai E's minimum requirement for Zhao Youxin is ten days. It must be nailed to the barrier for ten days to buy time for the Yunnan army to mobilize further. Now, it has suffered heavy damage in less than a day. How can Zhao Youxin accept it?
"Where are the artillery, bombard the Sichuan Army quickly, bombard quickly!" A Sichuan Army soldier had already approached the Yunnan Army's position. Zhao Youxin could no longer care about anything and hurriedly urged the artillery to attack.
The Yunnan Army's artillery finally launched again. Four artillery shells fell into the charging Sichuan Army. The shells exploded, destroying all living things within ten meters around. It was as if a piece of the original charging formation had been suddenly taken away.
The Sichuan army had no choice but to retreat quickly.
The Yunnan Army's artillery was aimed at another place, but before they could fire, the Sichuan Army's artillery had already calculated their position, and dozens of kilograms of artillery shells were fired head-on. The Sichuan Army's 120mm cannon had a killing range of almost
Reaching a radius of thirty meters, the violent explosion of the artillery shells was like a muffled thunder falling on the ground. The violent air waves sent all the artillerymen of the Yunnan Army into the air. Most of them flew into the sky before
Their bodies had been turned into sieves by a single piece. Although some people had no serious injuries, the violent explosion had shattered all their internal organs and turned them into a pot of porridge.
** were fragile in front of artillery shells, and the artillery was still like this. The two mountain cannons were all turned into parts and scattered all over the ground. Fortunately, there were no artillery shells around, otherwise the Yunnan army would suffer greater losses after being killed.
Zhao Youxin's face was livid. The Sichuan Army was really nothing. The equipment provided to the Yunnan Army was all useless. The 105mm mountain cannon was a tragedy except for its beautiful caliber. But what's even worse now is that even this
The tragedy is almost exhausted.
At this time, the first line of defense had shaken in several places. The soldiers of the Sichuan Army had already rushed into the trenches. Now the two armies were fighting with bayonets. The nutritional conditions of the Sichuan Army soldiers were generally better than those of the Yunnan Army. They were tall, strong and cooperative.
In place, since the last battle between the Sichuan Army and the Yunnan Army, after the Sichuan Army suffered a loss in the bayonet fight, the Sichuan Army has made great efforts and specially hired a group of martial arts instructors to extract the most concise and effective moves from the numerous martial arts routines.
Used to fight with bayonets, the Sichuan army's hand-to-hand combat ability quickly improved after hard training.
In addition to the bayonet, the Sichuan Army also has another great weapon, the engineer shovel. Don’t underestimate this thing. It is a versatile treasure. It can be used as a shovel or a hammer. It can chop wood and peel potatoes.
, it can also be used as a flying hook to catch a hundred chain locks, and it is also unambiguous to behead people.
The Sichuan Army, which was holding back revenge, had enough fun this time. Most of the thin Yunnan Army soon fell to the ground, and the rest fled in panic. The forward position changed hands, but the battle that followed became more difficult. The Yunnan Army ended up with three
This high ground serves as the core to build a second layer of defense.
The highest relative height of these three highlands reaches 270 meters, and they are faced with a slope of more than 45 degrees. There is a river blocking the slope outside, forming an extremely favorable terrain for the Yunnan Army. From a commanding position, the Sichuan Army
Their movements can be seen clearly, and their guns and artillery can easily attack the Sichuan army.
When Shi Yi saw the Sichuan army facing a large number of casualties on the high ground from the position, he knew that he could no longer make such sacrifices in vain, so he had to temporarily stop the attack. The most advantageous weapon to deal with such dangerous situations was the air force. At this time, it was already
After noon, the fog finally began to dissipate, and the long-awaited sunshine once again shone on the earth. The Sichuan Army War Eagle, who had been impatient for a long time, immediately flew the plane into the air, roaring towards the Yunnan Army's position.
.
There were a total of four aircraft in the first batch, carrying eight 100-kilogram bombs. The Yunnan Army did not have any air defense equipment, so the Sichuan Army Air Force seemed very relaxed. It flew over the high ground and dropped all eight bombs!
I’ll add another chapter today and I’ll post it at 6pm. I beg you all to save it and recommend it. Thank you very much.dd
