Chapter 298 Battle of the Ancient Mountains (2)

Under the heart-wrenching gaze of two thousand officers and soldiers of the Independent Regiment, the nearly crazy artillery bombardment of the Black Hawk Empire Army stopped.

However, the only thing that stopped the artillery was heavy artillery, and then the mountain cannons equipped by the Black Hawk Army Artillery Regiment began to show their power, once again shrouding the ancient mountains that had not yet dissipated in the fire.

However, the Black Hawk Army, who were staying at the foot of the mountain, began to move, and a squadron began to move towards the mountain with weapons. It was still the same old method of joint combat and attack by infantry and artillery. First, use heavy artillery to open the way to destroy the fortifications and will of the defenders, and then use mountain cannons to cover the infantry assault.

Of course, the Black Hawk Army could only move to about 200 meters away from the main position on the top of the ancient mountain. If they move forward, even their own shells did not have an enemy-to-me recognition system, and they would only become a slag if they were hit by one shot.

Although Zhou Shiyu's face, located in the back-sloping tunnel, was not that bad. The Black Hawk Army's heavy artillery was very awesome. Even in the tunnel more than 30 meters away from the main position, you could feel the huge power of the explosion of heavy howitzers. The soil kept falling down, and everyone's heads and faces were covered with dust like a groundhog.

But except for the four people who stayed on the position as observation posts, it was a bit worrying that they did not even lose any loss to other officers and soldiers.

I have to say that the bandits in the Death Company have good psychological qualities. Except for a few who were pale and kept muttering "Blessings of Bodhisattvas" to give themselves courage, most of the others either smoke or silently wipe the guns in their hands.

Maybe this is also related to the fact that they have been in the bandit's den for several years and murder and setting fires as usual. Since joining the Death Company, the strict military law has effectively bound their animal nature, but no one can erase their indifference to life and death in their bones! Anyway, these three months have been a profit. At least, they are much better than the bandit brothers who were taken to the barren mountains and shot in rows. As for what they care about, they may be the wife and children who finally live a stable life with the independent group base!

Not only are the psychological quality, but the bandits in the Death Company are not worse than other troops even after the orders are implemented.

During the three-month hell training, there were not no bandits who wanted to run, but they were basically hung on the flagpole. Zhou Shiyu, who was like a white-faced scholar, was no worse than the big brothers in the village who often lighted sky lanterns. He used fifteen of the twenty death places given to him by Liu Lang within half a month. In the remaining two and a half months, no bandit dared to disobey the military law of the Death Company.

It can even be said that the entire independent regiment is the most abide by military law, and it must be a company that dares to die. Zhou Shiyu used the lives of the bandits who dared to test the law with his own strength to restrain the bandits within a controllable range.

At first, it was not that no one wanted to attack Zhou Shiyu and several harsh squad leader's black gun after getting the weapons, but Zhou Shiyu and the veterans used their superb individual skills and the coldness of hanging the deserters who wanted to escape on the flagpole without mercy, telling them that black guns can be used, but the greater possibility is that they cannot kill them, and that terrible consequences are definitely not something they can bear.

The sharp bamboo flute suddenly rang out, and Zhou Shiyu felt a little relieved. It seemed that the observation post was still alive. Without waiting for his order, the Death Company, who was sitting at the entrance of the tunnel, rushed out with guns, followed by the machine cannon platoon.

The other three platoons continued to stand by in the tunnel, and they were Zhou Shiyu's reserve team.

Zhou Shiyu, who was born in a regular military academy, understood that fighting with the Black Hawk Army was definitely not a matter of one or two days. He could not spread his trump card on the first day. Organic cannon platoon MG42 machine guns were used for fire support. The Black Hawk Army wanted to break through a platoon of 50 people in a short period of time, even if they used heavy artillery to blow the main position into scorched earth.

The narrow front of the main position of Gushan is impossible to support a large-scale charge. If the Black Hawk Army did not care about casualties, it would have fulfilled Zhou Shiyu's wish. The terrifying firing rate of the MG42 machine gun would definitely repeat the incident a few days ago, causing the 8th Division to hurt the marrow.

In this first battle, Zhou Shiyu even dispatched only two MG42 machine guns and a row of three light machine guns, and several mortars were just on standby and were not allowed to use them until absolutely necessary.

The only lieutenant who survived the 4th Brigade's offensive and defensive battle in Anwupo brought back the news that the Kingdom Guard had a heavy machine gun with a very high rate of fire. Although it was difficult for Xiao Qing to believe that the Kingdom people surpassed the Imperial Army in infantry support firepower, the body of the Imperial soldier who was lifted from the Anwupo battlefield was quite complete but almost made into honeycombs told him that he had to accept this fact.

The kingdoms did have a new weapon that could completely suppress their own Type 92 heavy machine guns. Therefore, before the attack, they specifically warned Yu Jia, the commander of the 16th Brigade, who was on the front line to supervise the battle, not to charge on a large scale and intensive manner to avoid the nightmares suffered by the 4th Brigade again.

The heavy artillery bombardment of up to twenty minutes was not only for demonstration, but also for the destruction of the fortifications of the Kingdom defenders. Only in this way can the grenade launchers of the infantry squadron destroy the enemy's fire points without fortifications one by one. As long as the fire points are destroyed, the Kingdom defenders will become lambs to be slaughtered.

It can be said that for the small position of Gushan, except for the absence of dispatching chariot brigades and using aircraft, Xiao Qing almost used most of the combat power of the Eighth Division.

The distance of more than 30 meters was only nearly ten seconds, and the Death row rushed to his position.

The position was shrouded in strong smoke. On this clear spring day, the visibility was only more than 30 meters, and the shadow of the Black Hawk Army charging up the mountain was not visible at all. The position was full of big pits, and some of the bullet craters could almost be placed in a car.

The trenches are no longer coherent, and there are many places that are bombed and collapsed by artillery shells. To describe them as being naughty, it is considered to be a good idea.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind!" "Everyone, enter the position, hurry." A row of long and short orders were given, and then ran to the castle where the observation post was.

The observation posts that were staying in the castle were his ranks of soldiers, so he was of course worried.

However, after only a few steps, the long row stopped. The two castles on the left were no longer there. The two huge craters and the twisted steel plates inserted into the ground were proved by the Black Hawk Army's 240MM caliber heavy howitzer.

If someone stayed in the castle, I'm afraid he would be ashes with the castle, and even saved the issue of collecting corpses.

A trace of pain flashed in a long row of eyes.

No, someone else was blowing the bamboo flute just now, and there must be an observation whistle alive, "Tiger Head, where are you hiding?" The roster leader shouted the name of a sergeant who had been in the same class as him for three years.

The sixteen veterans, except for five who became platoon leaders, all eleven became sergeant squad leaders. This time, they acted as observation posts. The leader was Wei Hutou, the squad leader of the third squad, and the veteran with the closest relationship with the first squad leader.

No one answered, the hearts of a row of leaders sank. Before the battle started, just a bombardment, did he lose his best brother?

"Platform leader, platoon leader, squad leader, here is the third squad leader!" A shout from the soldiers came.

After taking two steps at a time, a long row ran over, and the joy that had just appeared on his face turned into pain.

Wei Hu, who was lying in the crater, spitting blood in big mouthfuls. The large black blood clot on his chest and clothes were clearly fragments of the internal organs. They were shocked by shells. The leader of the ranks who had experienced the Battle of Haicheng knew very well.

The veteran who did not represent the last words that the justice side had to confess before his death, and did not even have time to take a look at his brother, and the veteran who squirted blood and vomited his last breath died silently.

After he completed his mission.

No one understood what kind of perseverance he used to blew the last bamboo flute, and no one knew why the veteran who died silently had to hold his chest tightly at the last moment of his life.

Because, the Black Hawk Empire is coming.

"Machine gun, shoot me, shoot me..." A platoon roared, looked deeply at the brothers who had lived and died for three years, and then turned around and rushed into the position.

Someone rushed up and raised Wei Hu's head, the only body could be found, and the other three had already merged with the position.
