Utilize all available environmental conditions to create opportunities for yourself to defeat the enemy. This is the battlefield survival rule that Zhou Jiping learned from the scout training. Now, he has brought this rule here again and taught it to the people living on this grassland.
warriors
Staying in relatively safe trenches and ambushing enemies in depressions and swamps, this simplified war mode has become extremely simple. Now that the soldiers of the Free Army are firing their guns, they can avoid being caught by enemy fire.
The impact of the attack was aimed at the Northern Army like a target.
The first targets to be taken care of are those Northern Army soldiers who dare to fight back. The consistent approach of tribal warriors to these people is to directly eliminate them. But for those Northern Army soldiers who have clearly understood the situation and understood that fighting back is tantamount to seeking death, they simply put down their weapons and no longer fight back.
Instead, the tribal warriors opened their eyes and directly passed the crosshairs over their heads, aiming directly at the gunmen behind the roaring muzzles.
The balance of victory and defeat soon appeared tilted. He hid in the bunker dug in advance and shot at the Northern Army on the opposite side who could only use the terrain and features to fight in the open. This kind of killing was almost a one-sided massacre.
At the beginning, the soldiers of the Northern Army persisted for a while relying on their superior firepower. When they found that their shooting was more effective than nothing, and their companions around them were constantly knocked down by the unhurried shooting of the opposite tribe soldiers,
The momentum of the Northern Army's counterattack suddenly weakened. The company closest to the front of the depression even showed signs of collapse.
"Incendiary bombs! Rocket launchers! Rifle grenades!" There are also experienced and tenacious people in the Northern Army. Seeing that the battle situation is unfavorable, some low-level officers began to play their role.
Not long after, rockets with incendiary warheads were hit on the tribal position opposite the depression. Then, the infantry equipped with grenade launchers began to frequently lob grenades over them.
Zhou Jiping, who was condescending, saw this scene and couldn't help but nodded at the rapid tactical response of the grassroots soldiers of the Northern Army. Even if it was the enemy, Zhou Jiping couldn't help but praise the other party's timely response and correct method. Under the current situation, incendiary bombs and
Rifle grenades are indeed the best counterattack firepower for the Northern Army who cannot cross the depression. Only this weapon and operation method can pose a threat and damage to the tribal side.
Of course, if the officers of the Northern Army are willing to transfer a sufficient number of mortars to provide sufficient firepower to the tribal defenders on the opposite side of the depression, the effect will of course be better. This is why Zhou Jiping only allows a small part of the firepower to be exposed.
The reason is because only under such circumstances, the commander of the Northern Army will focus on the tribal troops who are still "fleeing" and will not pay attention to the "very few" harassment elements on the opposite side of the depression.
"Pass my order," Zhou Jiping said to Uribe who was not far away: "Cooperate with the gentlemen of the Northern Army..."
With the deliberate cooperation of the tribal side, the Free Army's firepower weakened. Seeing this, the Northern Army, which had been panicking for a while, also calmed down. Under the command of the officer, a battalion of the Northern Army opposite the depression began to assemble towards the edge of the depression, preparing to
Adopt new tactics and tactics
This is the result Zhou Jiping wants. What he needs is this most time-consuming tug-of-war. This is the condition he must create for Francois to attack the Northern Army's baggage convoy.
On the other side, the leading battalion of the Alber Regiment has begun to exchange fire with the defenders of the second hillock. Both sides are still in the process of testing step by step. No one is willing to reveal their true combat effectiveness immediately. This will also take time.
Now, the entire battle situation is completely in the hands of Zhou Jiping. In the eyes of the Northern Army, they are still fighting against the tribal armed forces they encounter by chance. As long as they work harder, they can severely inflict heavy losses on these defeated troops who have been fleeing. As for those who accidentally encountered
The small groups that emerged to harass the enemy soldiers did not affect the progress of the entire battle at all. The enemies only dared to fire cold shots across the swamps. Using a battalion of regular troops to deal with them was a bit of a fuss.
However, the Northern Army on the other side of the depression was a little helpless. Although the firepower of the tribal warriors in front of them was weak, they could not collapse under the double attack of incendiary bombs and rifle grenades, and from time to time they defeated those who tried to pull their feet out of the swamp.
Union soldier
This made the officers of the Northern Army a little surprised and a little suspicious. Are the tribal armies really so tenacious in fighting? Why didn't they just kill the soldiers trapped in the depressions? Why did they only attack those soldiers who tried to fight?
Did they shoot only when they were escaping? Why did it feel like these indigenous soldiers were just trying to attract them? Rather, they seemed to be killing time?
Yes, these skeptical Northern Army officers guessed correctly that the tribal warriors' attention was not on killing people at all. They were strictly implementing Zhou Jiping's combat plan: to attract the opponent, kill time and the opponent's energy.
The Union soldiers who were stuck in the swamp and couldn't get out were the enemy's bait.
This situation lasted for nearly twenty minutes. The northern army in the depression once again adjusted their tactics. Their firepower weakened for a while, and then more incendiary bombs and grenades were fired towards the opposite side of the depression. Their patience was quick.
They need to rescue their surviving comrades, and then follow the group in front. The battle on the hillock has become more and more intense. Captain Alber has given an order to let them get rid of the entanglement here as soon as possible.
This time, the tribe's side fought back, but unlike the Northern Army's lively fighting style, the tribe's weapons made almost no sound when they fought, but they were just a little bit dark.
A hail of arrows rose into the sky, covering up the Northern Army who was gathering on the opposite side of the depression to carry out the "final blow" against the tribe. It wasn't until a large amount of arrow rain fell that there was a slight whooshing sound.
It only took ten seconds for it to show its terrifying side. The sound of the swishing crossbow arrows piercing the air suppressed the sound of the Northern Army's heavy weapons shooting.
In terms of volume, the sound of arrow rain breaking through the air is no match for the sound of hot weapons. However, if everyone on the position saw this dense rain of arrows, and saw the comrades around them being shot from
The crossbow arrows falling from the air were as sharp as porcupines, and anyone would stop shooting.
The rain of arrows fell unevenly. Due to the range, the Northern Army near the edge of the depression was the hardest hit. Many unlucky Northern Army soldiers were dressed like porcupines, and they looked extremely scary.
