As the news spread, all parties made different judgments
Zhou Jiping believes that this is Masu Ali's attempt to cover up the situation. The Northern Army is likely to make a big move. Masu Ali wants to solve his worries before making a big move.
Elder Muba and Zolik believed that this was probably Masuari testing the possibility of withdrawing his troops. After a day of fierce fighting, Masuari finally discovered that it was impossible for him to capture Ngro, and now he was ready
Of course, they gave up. The basis for their judgment was that they had witnessed the fierce battle at Kapa Pass and the dejected retreat of the Northern Army after its disastrous defeat.
Huang Pihu thinks...
Huang Pihu couldn't care less and thought that he had already connected with the tribal militias who were transporting heavy weapons. He was busy distributing and digesting this batch of heavy equipment, and redistributing and building new lines of defense. In his words, all predictions and analyzes were successful.
It’s not as practical as making real preparations before war.
Just when Huang Pihu was too busy to communicate with Zhou Jiping and Elder Muba, the Northern Army assembled in a grand manner at Kapa Pass. This assembly seemed to solidify the conclusion that the Northern Army was preparing to retreat.
According to the news reported by the observation post sent by the Bushmen: Perhaps due to concerns about the Bushmen's artillery in the mountain pass, the Northern Army's assembly location and number of people have changed greatly. In addition to the conventional tank and infantry offensive teams,
Outside of the model, the most eye-catching thing is that there are at least forty infantry fighting vehicles assembled. These vehicles are equipped with machine guns and are also equipped with some soldiers on board.
Attacking Kapa Pass with infantry tanks? Even a three-year-old Bushman child would not make such a crazy decision, because it is simply the same act as committing suicide.
Soon after, news came from the observation post: some officers also appeared among these station wagons. It may be that Masuari came to watch the battle in person.
Based on this situation, after analysis, Zolik and Elder Muba made another judgment: Masuari was preparing to carry out one last attack, and then he would escape. This morning, the Northern Army's attack from behind was exactly the way they would retreat.
After testing, the Northern Army finally couldn't hold on any longer, and the war was about to end...
Faced with the optimistic judgments of Zorik and Elder Muba, Zhou Jiping and Huang Pihu simply responded with silence. In their opinion, the two allies, Elder Muba and Zorik, were too optimistic, and at this time it was obviously not with them.
During the debate, looking back at Masuari, his actions seemed too weird. However, both of them believed that the answer was not far away, and they could only wait and see.
At 9:30, the Northern Army's artillery fire began again
When the first wave of artillery shells fell into the Kapa Pass, people finally discovered the difference in the Northern Army's attack - most of the artillery shells used by the Northern Army were incendiary bombs!
In an instant, Capa turned into a purgatory on earth. As soon as the terrifying napalm bomb fell, the fuel splashed out after the explosion would start burning wherever it hit. Before the fuel was burned out, it would not be extinguished. Even this
The fuel splashed on the human body, with the same result. The incendiary bomb of another chemical material exploded with some inexplicable medium. Even if this medium touches the steel, it will release high temperature and heat, splashing on other combustible materials.
A cloud of smoke will soon rise from the object, and then a fire will appear. If unfortunately it splashes on the human body, a big bloody hole will be burned out in the blink of an eye.
The artillery shells of the Northern Army were extremely dense, almost regardless of the important or unimportant. Every place that could be used for fortifications was bombarded by incendiary bombs. There was fire and smoke everywhere, and the miserable cries for help from the Bushmen defenders were everywhere.
The ground is burning, the rocks are burning, the fortifications are burning, the bunkers are burning, it seems that everything in the entire valley is burning.
There was no room for anyone in the trenches. Some soldiers wanted to hide in the hiding cave or the bunker, but the door of the hiding cave had been burned through, and thick smoke was already billowing inside. The strong heat radiation and the pervasive fire had already destroyed the hiding place.
The situation of the bunker being set on fire by the items in the hole is slightly better, but how many people can be accommodated in that small bunker? Most people have been ignited by incendiary bombs or poisonous smoke before they can squeeze into the bunker.
He fell to the ground. As for the temperature in the bunker, it was even more suffocating...
The Bushman garrison was caught off guard. For more than ten minutes, they did not react at all. What should they do? At the beginning, some low-level officers were still asking their subordinates to put out the fire. But when the garrison discovered that many people who put out the fire were burned.
After turning into corpses like burning charcoal, I realized that the situation was not good, but it was already too late to evacuate at this time.
The defenders on the first and second lines of defense had just emerged from the fortifications. Before they could determine the direction of escape, a wave of anti-personnel bombs fell. The defenders who could not hide were bombed horribly, causing heavy casualties.
The command and communication system of the defenders was also paralyzed. Zoric could only contact Dingila on the third line of defense, but his contact with the first and second lines of defense was completely interrupted. All this showed that the situation was critical.
What to do? Send troops to rescue?
No! At this time, the first two fronts are a sea of fire, and people can't even retreat. How can we send troops to assist?
Helpless, Zorick could only order the third front, which suffered relatively small losses, to be on guard carefully. Once the fire at the mountain pass weakened, reinforcements would be sent immediately. However, Zorick had a problem that he couldn't figure out. He couldn't send reinforcements because of the fire.
Can the Northern Army's offensive team enter the fire scene? He can only ask the observation posts hidden in the dark to keep an eye on it and report any situation in a timely manner.
To his surprise, the Northern Army's offensive team really moved, and they really rushed into the Kapa Pass before the fire stopped. After receiving the news, Zorik felt completely unbelievable.
In fact, the exact situation is that four Northern Army tanks rushed into the Kapa Pass, and these four tanks were all covered with thick asbestos coats soaked in water.
Not all the defenders on the first line of defense were burned to death. After all, the effect of fire is limited. Some calm and lucky people can still survive in such a fire.
When the tanks of the Northern Army rushed into the mountain pass, these surviving soldiers picked up their weapons and prepared to repel the Northern Army's attack just like yesterday. But when they picked up their guns, they discovered that there was no infantry behind the tanks.
There was no one to shoot the direct-aimed artillery that could help them knock out the tank. At this time, because the line of sight was blocked by the fire, it was unable to provide them with fire support. They could only point the gun in their hands at the tank that roared in, in vain.
with a gun fired
puff……
The tanks approaching the defense line suddenly opened fire. It wasn't a cannon or a gun, it was really "fire" - among the tanks sent by the Northern Army, there were actually two fire-breathing tanks!
ah……
After a period of miserable screams, the surviving soldiers were ignited by the fire sprayed into the bunker, and were burned alive in pain. Some bunkers that could not collapse even if they were directly hit by heavy artillery were ignited by the fire from the inside.
became a hot stove
The other two heavy tanks followed closely next to the two fire-breathing tanks, and launched attacks on the surviving firepower points in coordination. In the face of such an attack combination, the firepower points of the Bushman defenders were removed one by one. The defenders were originally
The already limited resistance is getting weaker and weaker.
The fire gradually weakened, and the visibility in the Kapa Pass gradually recovered. The defenders at some of the firepower points in the back finally passed the news through personnel notifications. At this time, the first two lines of defense had completely lost their defensive capabilities.
"Fire! Fire! All the howitzers use armor-piercing shells to drive out the Northern Army." After receiving the news, Zorik was shocked. Less than an hour ago, he was optimistic that the war was about to end, but now the Northern Army has destroyed Capa's army.
The threshold was cut open
Calm down! Calm down! After issuing the first order, Zoric forced himself to calm down while issuing the second order to Dingela: "The defenders on the third line of defense are ready for reinforcements at any time, and they will rush forward as soon as the shelling is over.
Retake the Yamaguchi position"
There was just enough time for Zoric to issue these two orders with his whole body trembling nervously. He would immediately call Huang Pihu and Zhou Jiping to quickly report the critical situation and try to get some comfort and guidance from them.
"Zorik, don't be nervous." Zhou Jiping suddenly interrupted: "You forgot, if it doesn't work, we have one last resort - blow up the mountain pass!" Zhou Jiping didn't know that Zorik didn't carry out his order. In his heart,
This is the last barrier in this battle
"No...no..." Zorick regretted that it would have been better if he had secretly planted more explosives behind Elder Muba's back. Why was he unwilling to go against the elder's wishes in the first place, and now he is in this situation...
"What's wrong?" Zhou Jiping turned around in his heart and thought to himself, "It's not good."
Zorick had no choice but to tell Elder Muba that he had prevented him from planting enough explosives. When Zorick said this, Zhou Jiping's heart suddenly sank and he was speechless for a while.
No one would have thought that the situation would change so quickly or be so bad. When Huang Pihu and Zhou Jiping heard that the situation in front of them was so ruined, they were shocked and speechless. Their brains seemed to have been lost in an instant.
ability to think
"I think... you should prepare for the worst..." Huang Pihu was the first to wake up. He said to Zoric in a solemn tone: "What if Masuari has another trick? What if he doesn't?
What if we can take back the mountain pass?”
Huang Pihu asked two questions in a row, leaving Zorik speechless. Yes, judging from the current situation, he and Elder Muba really underestimated Masu Ali. If Masu Ali really still has
If the trick is not used, it is really difficult to save the Kapa Pass. Once that happens, Engro will be in danger.
