But this is not all the disadvantages of the officers and soldiers of the 48th Regiment. They are also at a disadvantage when they are shooting against the Black Hawk Army lying on the ground. It is not that they are not brave enough. In order to choose better aiming, many soldiers bravely raised their heads and supported themselves to shoot against the Black Hawk Army.

However, under the numerous flares fired by the Black Hawk Army, many young soldiers were shot and fell down one after another. The Sixth Division is known as a side by side with the guard divisions of the 2nd Division among the seventeen permanent divisions of the Black Hawk Army. Their soldiers are far above the officers and soldiers of the 48th Regiment, whether collective or individual, and their tactical qualities are far above the officers and soldiers of the 48th Regiment. Their soldiers can only shoot more than 200 rounds of live ammunition training every month, which is not something that the officers and soldiers of the 48th Regiment can match only 20 rounds of live ammunition training every year.

If more than one-third of the 48th Regiment were not for the fact that more than one-third of the veterans who had participated in many civil wars between the warlords in Qiu Tongzhou, perhaps the continuous death of new recruits in battle would have caused the soldiers who had been on the battlefield for the first time to collapse.

In the face of terrible death, sometimes it cannot improve the psychological quality of human beings. Even if the concept of defending the country is deeper into the bone marrow, it is human instinct to save lives and survive. Endless fear may crush people's thinking, and even escaping is just a subconscious behavior.

This is an inevitable learning process. The soldiers of Qiu Tong's army, who had never dealt with the Black Hawk Army, learned with blood and sacrifice, learned how to fight the brutal and cunning Black Hawk Army, learned how to overcome the fear of death, learned to protect themselves and kill the enemy... If you can't learn, you will have to be eliminated by your opponent in the war.

Of course, the price of this learning is undoubtedly extremely heavy. Just the first round of full-strength attack and testing of the Black Hawk Army, the 48th Regiment paid 3 heavy machine guns and was destroyed, one mortar was hit by a mountain shell, and more than 150 infantry were injured and killed in artillery fire. More than 80 people were killed on the spot by bullets. Almost a half-infantry company was removed from the 48th Regiment's sequence.

Fortunately, not only the Black Hawk Army had mountain cannons, but also the 48th Regiment, Xie Yunsheng was also cruel. Although the entire regiment's defense line was firmly suppressed by the Black Hawk Army, he actually gritted his teeth and did not fire until the Black Hawk Army infantry completely entered the first line of defense, and ordered four mountain cannons to fire with all their strength 100 meters in front of the position.

That was the artillery point that he and the artillery had already agreed on. In order to ensure accuracy, after digging the trenches in front, all the soldiers and civilians retreated 800 meters away. The artillery even wasted not much shells and conducted test-fires in the area. Xie Yunsheng bet that even if the landing point of the mountain cannon shells was in the trenches, his officers and soldiers were still in the trenches, and the probability of accidental injury was much smaller.

Moreover, the dark night provided excellent cover for the four mountain cannons. The unraveled observation balloons and the unstoppable Black Hawk reconnaissance aircraft could not accurately locate the four mountain cannons. Even if the Black Hawk Army could calculate the approximate location of the mountain cannons soon through ballistics, it would have been a long time later. The artillery position located under the protection of the city wall of Shouhuai City had long been transferred.

I have to say that the Four-One Mountain Cannon is very suitable for mountain combat. It is not only accurate in ballistics, but also has a very light weight. With the weight of more than 500 kilograms of gun mount, the four adults can move at will. Yin Xiake never expected that the kingdoms were waiting for him here, and the soldiers who were waiting for him entered a distance that could almost charge with all their might. The kingdoms' mountain cannons opened fire.

When a harsh roar sounded, Yin Xia's face turned pale suddenly, and four fireballs suddenly bloomed within the seventy or eighty-meter area on the front position. Although they did not hit the black hawk army sequence that was still crawling and shooting against the Kingdom Guards, there were still five or six Black Hawks who rushed forward and were blown away by the air waves and then landed heavily on the ground.

At that moment, the Black Hawk Army crawled on the ground, its face was really similar to the earth that was very close to them, and its face was as color as earth. The kingdoms not only had large-caliber artillery, but also began to shell the shells when the two armies were fighting.

But the key is that the kingdoms hid in the trenches, and even if they exploded twenty or thirty meters in front of them, they might not be able to do anything, but if they fall into their sequence, then...

Then they are all finished.

This is in the southern water town of the kingdom, not the hilly mountains in the north. Especially when they arrive in the Xianlu Mountains, they can find a ravine or a rock to hide it. The largest bunker in front of them is just a small mound of soil up to 20 cm in height. That thing is even difficult to protect against bullets, and can also protect against cannons?

Obviously, this can only be a fantasy.

When five seconds later, four shells flew over again and smashed into the Black Hawk Army sequence five or six meters apart between individual soldiers, they took away more than fifteen lives. If this continues, it won't take long for this shell to wipe out all the Black Hawk Army of the two infantry squadrons.

This is no longer an awkward question or not, but a fatal question. There are only two choices in the way before Yin Xia, either, to continue to advance in the fire of artillery and maintain the previous combat plan; or to retreat, waiting for the heavy artillery of the division artillery corps to find the firing position of the kingdoms and then launch an attack again.

He believed that the commander of the wise and powerful division in the rear must have discovered their embarrassment and would find a way.

The Colonel of the Black Hawk Empire Army was right. Ding Beiwei, who had been using a telescope to observe the battle situation on the opposite side, immediately discovered that artillery fire appeared in the battle area between the two sides. After asking about his artillery corps on the phone, this person of course knew that this was the artillery of the kingdom.

According to his military order, in the shortest time, 12 howitzers of the Sixth Artillery Regiment of the Sixth Division began to prepare for firepower coverage. The artillery observers tried hard to find the approximate location of the Kingdom artillery based on the ballistics. However, in the era of artillery radar, it was not easy to find artillery positions several kilometers away in the vast night?

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Ding Beiwei, who was not good at night battles because of his anger, looked ashen at this time. No one knew whether the lieutenant general was so regretful. Everyone just knew that he did not command the command ahead to continue attacking or retreat.

Before the 6th Artillery Regiment had a difficult time finding the artillery position to counter-suppress the kingdoms, all the decisions on the battle on the river bank ahead were handed over to Yin Xia. Yin Xia could only grit his teeth and issue the military order "Let's continue to attack harder, and it won't take long to drink and eat meat."

This military order was cruel, and the soldiers on both sides had to fight in the midst of artillery fire. The shells had no eyes and landed 100 meters away. Although they could tear the Black Hawk Empire into pieces, the terrible shrapnel could also take away the lives of the soldiers of the 48th Regiment. During this period, a mountain cannon shell was even falling directly above the regiment command post in the second line trench 150 meters behind the front line position. If the soil layer was not thick enough, I would have probably died under his own artillery.

But Yin Xia was cruel enough, Xie Yunsheng, the Qiu Tongren, was also fierce enough. When he saw that the Black Hawk Army dared to continue attacking under artillery fire, he ordered without blinking: "Order, the artillery continued to shoot at the designated area. No one in the trenches could retreat without a military order. I want to see how hard the heads of the Black Hawk Empire in the 6th Division were. At the same time, I ordered all heavy machine gun groups, if the Black Hawk Army entered the 40-meter area, there was no need to be afraid of exposing the target, and I would beat me hard."

"Captain, in this way, the few heavy machine guns in our regiment may suffer heavy losses!" The chief of staff of the regiment was shocked.

It was agreed that it was just a blockade, why did it be like a decisive battle now?

"The loss is heavy? If he is a fairy, Banban, if he can't pass this level, how can I have the chance to retreat to Huangsu City? If the person is gone, he needs a heavy machine gun to use a hammer." Xie Yunsheng's eyes burst out with determination. "I informed me of the battalion commanders that the person is in the position. If they die, I and the Chief of Staff will take over and treat this battle as the last battle of the 48th Regiment."

In the sky of artillery fire, the Sichuan kids who had already gone from being nervous to being afraid later to being numb later eventually turned into a desperate situation. Many of the comrades who were with each other day fell in pools of blood, and they didn't even have time to care. They just mechanically raised their heads and aimed at the Black Hawk Army who was speeding up in the artillery fire, then pulled the bolt, aimed again, and fired again.

No one knows when a bullet or shrapnel will take away their lives.

The remaining 10 mortars in the rear seemed to know that the battle on the front line had entered a fierce attack. They no longer hid and fled, but poured the shells directly towards the heavy machine gun fire point transmitted from the artillery observers in the rear.

In addition to the four mountain cannons that are farthest away from the Kingdom, the 48th Regiment located on the river beach and the first infantry brigade of the 13th Infantry Regiment of the Black Hawk Army were almost at the moment. Even if you can kill me, I will bite you hard and tear off a long strip of meat.

I'm afraid this was something Yin Xia and Xie Yunsheng had not expected before. It was just that the development of the battle situation made both the regiment-level commanders have to make such a helpless choice.

The first battle between the two became a decisive battle that would die together.

The so-called firepower advantages, tactical literacy, and geographical advantages are no longer important at this moment.

At this moment, what supports both sides to continue fighting is courage.

That's right, when the two armies meet, the brave will win.

When neither side can retreat, the army that abandons all fears and even hopes for life can achieve the final victory.

When the Black Hawk Army spent a lot of casualties and crawled forward to more than 40 meters where they could charge with all their strength, the Black Hawk Army, who had suffered huge casualties, had already used bayonets and waited for the officers who led the team to issue a "charge" charge. As long as they advanced ten meters, they could also throw the melon grenade into the trenches of the Kingdom people. Then they would sprint with all their strength to sprint into the trenches of the Kingdom people for six to seven seconds, and defeat all the fighting spirit of the Kingdom defenders with hand-to-hand combat.

The platoon-level commanders of the 48th Regiment, who observed all this, also asked the officers and soldiers to bayonet, and they made final preparations.

But no one expected that the emergence of a weapon changed the situation where the grassroots soldiers on both sides prepared for a final decisive battle.
