"I just received additional troops, and I haven't had time to recognize my face. Why is there a new mission?" Li Yuan heard Liu Wenxiu assign the mission, and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Generally speaking, you have to wait for three or two days after taking over new recruits.

It was never like this. The new soldiers were brought in in the morning and the new combat mission came down before the noodles were finished.

"No need to worry, the whole group is the same. Go back and prepare, we will set off at noon.

This time we don't have to rely on two legs, there are many tractors equipped for us.

Don’t say I didn’t remind you, bring as much ammunition as you can, especially mortar shells and plastic mines.”

"Captain, don't I need your approval for how much I have?"

"The order has been sent to you. Go to the logistics department and get it from the regiment's ammunition depot. You can move as much as you can."

"Captain, are you so generous this time?"

After hearing Liu Wenxiu's words, Li Yuan felt a chill go down his spine.

If it's not a fierce battle, why send so much ammunition?

From the bottom of his heart, Li Yuan likes to fight. After all, the more battles he fights and the more enemies he destroys, the greater his military exploits will be.

After returning to the Ming Dynasty, the rewards he received would naturally become more generous.

Although Li Yuan doesn't care about the reward, those Mongolian brothers still care.

After all, most of them have committed crimes.

Military merit can either absolve or exonerate one.

Just like Bayan, what he committed was a capital crime.

After calculation, he should not be in danger of his life now that he is back in Mongolia.

But this guy still likes to fight. Li Yuan feels that this guy is born to like fighting.

From his body, Li Yuan saw the shadow of his Mongolian ancestors.

No wonder those Tatars were able to occupy the Han Dynasty for nearly a hundred years.

When I got back to the camp, I immediately organized people to move the arms to the regiment.

Especially mortar shells, you can carry as many as you can.

The original lunch was not eaten. The cooking team made dry food and everyone ate it on the tractor.

To be honest, the tractor ride experience was not good at all.

Apart from being faster, there is no benefit at all.

People were swaying left and right inside the car, and they were bumped up from time to time.

Those recruits who had eaten noodles in the morning were now lying on the railings and vomiting so hard that they almost vomited out gall.

Seeing their sallow faces, Li Yuan was worried about whether they could still fight.

Li Yuan felt that he and his soldiers were a bit like Yuanxiao.

A huge airship flew by in the sky, and Li Yuan looked at the airship.

It's better to ride on that thing, although it's a bit bumpy. The large cargo airship also makes a lot of noise!

But at least they are fast!

Li Xiao sat on the airship and looked at the "motorized" troops below.

Although the soldiers pulled by the tractors were a little miserable, there was nothing they could do about it. The road conditions were so bad that the trucks had no use at all.

In this damn place like Russia, tractors are far better than trucks.

When transporting troops, soldiers suffer more.

Large airships can carry an infantry battalion, but large airships are very popular now.

All transportation capacity is used to transport supplies and reinforcements from the country!

The French army attacked Tsaritsyn with a total of 800,000 troops, while the Ming army continued to transport troops from the interior.

It took half a month to barely increase the number of Ming troops on the front line to a little over 190,000.

The combat effectiveness of the Russian army is just that. Don't expect too much from them!

The good news is that the fighting capabilities of the Romanians, Italians, and Spanish beside the French are also the same.

The French's numerical advantage was too great, and the Ming army could only take a defensive stance.

Use field fortifications to kill a large number of enemy troops, and then drag the French into street fighting.

Li Xiao clearly knows that as long as we fight in the streets, it won't matter how many troops you have.

Because of the ruins after shelling and bombing, no matter how many troops you have, you can't expand.

A squad can block a company without any problems.

The airship landed, and Li Xiao stepped off the airship and looked at the sun above his head.

Maybe it's because it's cold, but the sun is bright and white, not as dazzling as it is in summer.

This is Svet Loyal!

Thick smoke can be seen in the distance, which is caused by the Russian army setting fire to the dry reeds along the Volga River.

"Idiot!" Li Xiao cursed.

The thick smoke became the best cover, helping the French avoid the Ming army's aerial reconnaissance.

Amidst the rumble of cannons, the ground trembled slightly.

This is the Russian army attacking the French position. They lost their position and allowed the French to cross the Volga River.

Kutuzov looked a little worried, and issued a death order this morning, asking the Russian army to regain the positions on the east bank of the Volga River and drive the French back to the west bank of the Volga River.

And he gave an order similar to that of coming to see him in person!

The Russian generals are now leading their men to desperately attack the small 50-meter-long bunker occupied by the French army.

Li Xiao has no confidence in the combat effectiveness of the Russian army!

Even if Kutuzov gave the death order, the Russian army would get nothing but huge casualties.

Svetlojar is a plain, with unfrozen swamps on both sides.

If you want to launch an attack on the Ming army from here, you must occupy this place.

God gives me a chance!

Li Xiao only hoped that the Russian attack would last two days.

Give the Ming army sufficient preparation time to build field fortifications.

Five planes flew over the sky, and a huge roar resounded throughout the sky.

Li Xiao shook his head helplessly, worried about his pilots.

No wonder it is said that pilots need to take a day off after a flight.

This kind of working environment is really too bad.

Soon, Li Xiao heard the unique ghostly cry of Stuka dive bombing.

No explosion was heard and no smoke was seen.

All I could see was that many black spots suddenly appeared in the sky.

Li Xiao felt nervous. Years of military experience told him that it was anti-aircraft artillery firing.

War will give birth to all war-related technologies. The French are not stupid, they will also improve fuses.

Sure enough, a Stuka fell downwards with thick smoke.

As the Stuka fell, a white parachute suddenly appeared in the sky.

Soon, black spots appeared around the parachute.

Li Xiao's eyes shrank to the size of a needle nose!

These bastards actually attacked the pilot!

Pilots are precious, they are all transferred from airship pilots.

The training cost for each pilot is almost as much as the weight of the pilot's body in gold.

Seeing the explosions exploding around the pilot, black smoke soon came out of the parachute.

Through the telescope, you can even see the flames coming out of the parachute.

The pilot fell into free fall and fell into the Volga River under Li Xiao's watch.

"Hiss!" Li Xiao took a deep breath, but the cold air failed to calm the anger in his heart.

Judging from the explosion point, there are probably a lot of anti-aircraft guns, and they are all large-caliber anti-aircraft guns.

This large-caliber anti-aircraft gun can easily shoot down flying objects at an altitude of five to six kilometers.
