Chapter 464: Frontier War (1)
In less than half an hour, more than a thousand devils quietly crossed the river.
The devils who crossed the river scattered in all directions, quickly found cover, and aimed their guns at the forward positions of the 18th Brigade.
When these devil soldiers had established defensive positions and firing points, the devil commander gave the order to start shelling.
"Tom !!"
"Tom !!"
The sound of shelling in the woods continued, and dozens of field and mountain guns of various calibers opened fire at the same time.
The flying shells, with tail flames, quickly swept across the river and continuously bombarded the forward positions of the 18 Brigade.
"Boom, boom, boom!!"
Suddenly, an explosion broke the dead silence around the riverbank.
At this time, the officers and men of the 18th Brigade were all resting under the trench fortifications, not knowing that the devils would launch a night attack.
The enemy's artillery attack was so sudden that some of the soldiers who were resting on the positions did not even have time to hide before they were killed by the artillery fire of Lierao.
In just a few seconds, dozens of bloody corpses were added to the position, and more than a dozen soldiers were wounded.
The soldiers woke up one by one when they heard the sudden explosion.
"Enemy attack, heart artillery fire, concealment, quick concealment!!"
The soldiers hurriedly took up their weapons and went into the bunker fortifications to hide from artillery fire.
"Hurricane, hurricane, hurricane!!"
Rows of shells streaked across the night sky, smashing all over the forward positions of the 18th Brigade with a screaming sound.
Shells exploded everywhere, and the flames of the explosion shone in the dark night.
The fire of the devil artillery was very fierce, and in a moment, nearly a hundred shells poured down on the position.
The defenders of the 18th Brigade were caught off guard by heavy artillery fire, and more than 100 soldiers on the forward positions were killed and wounded by artillery fire.
"Ahh......h
"My eyes hurt, damn devil!!"
"My leg is gone, uh-ah!!"
Shouting, screaming, shelling, all kinds of sounds mixed with the position.
The defenders caused so many casualties at once, and the medical soldiers were so busy that they couldn't be treated.
Artillery shells on the other side of the river rained down on the positions of the 18th Brigade intensively, destroying many fortifications and fire positions of the defenders.
The positions of the 18th Brigade were hit by artillery fire, the bunker fortifications collapsed, and many soldiers were buried in the cool bunker Zheng
The devil artillery suppressed it with artillery fire for more than ten minutes, and then the devil artillery fired another volley of flares.
The flares flew over the positions of the 18th Brigade, and the illuminator of the shells slowly fell, blooming into clusters of scorching light.
As a number of flares rose into the air, the dark places everywhere instantly became bright and clear.
At this moment, the devils occupying the shore took advantage of the fact that the defenders in the forward positions were suppressed, and launched an offensive charge from several directions at the same time.
"Imperial soldiers, charge forward, duck and chicken give !!"
"Imperial soldiers, charge forward, duck and chicken give !!"
More than 1,000 devil soldiers bent over, scattered in a straggler formation, and bravely rushed to the defenders' positions.
The commanders of the 18 brigade, seeing the devils swarming up, shouted battle orders.
"The devil is attacking, everyone quickly enter the combat position, hurry, hurry !!"
The soldiers threw down the dirt and gravel that fell on them, and rushed out of the bunker fortifications with their hands and feet, and they hurried into their respective combat positions under heavy artillery fire.
"Brothers, fire !!"
The order to open fire was given, and hundreds of guns in the forward positions opened fire together, and a burst of fire flickered.
"Bang Bang !!"
"Da !!"
The sound of machine guns and rifles on the position rang out, and countless bullets mixed with the line of fire fired at the devil soldiers who pounced.
The bullet flew hundreds of meters away and whizzed past the devil.
"Ahh......h
The devils who rushed to the front bore the brunt of the shooting, and dozens of devils were shot and fell to Lin.
Although the enemy attacked with some casualties, the casualties of the devil's attacking troops were not large.
The officers and men of the 18th Brigade were shelled, and many soldiers were confused, and the marksmanship of the soldiers who were in a hurry was naturally affected, and the defenders were not good at night fighting.
The other devil soldiers have a quick ability to respond to the battlefield and the enemy has to find a hidden spot nearby, avoid the flying bullets, and reduce the bullet surface of the body.
The hundreds of devil soldiers in front of them lay on the ground in a lying position, or knelt on the ground and raised their guns to shoot at the firing point in front.
"Mortar suppression, machine gun suppression, duck chicken to !!"
Hearing the commander's order, the devil machine gun groups and mortars around the shore immediately launched fire suppression.
"Sudden !!"
"Tom !!"
The shells and bullets of the devils fiercely covered the forward positions of the 18th Brigade.
Bullets flew sideways over the positions, shells bloomed everywhere.
Most of the fortifications on the forward positions were destroyed by the enemy's heavy artillery fire just now, and the defenders who held the positions were very embarrassed, and the casualties of the soldiers continued to increase.
The hundreds of attacking devils in front slowed down the charge, and the devil soldiers, under the cover of artillery fire and machine guns, pulled the bolt of their guns and opened fire while moving.
The Chinese commanders in the forward positions took the lead in guarding their positions and led their soldiers to fight the attacking devils.
"Brothers, hold your ground, you must not let the devils rush to the position and beat !! fiercely"
Although the weapons and firepower of the defenders were inferior to those of the devils, the Chinese soldiers fought very tenaciously, and everyone held on to their fighting positions to resist the enemy.
The 8th Wing of the Devils is very flexible, worthy of being an elite unit, and between artillery and infantry, the night tactics are very well coordinated.
With the help of tracer bullets, the infantry frequently fired at the dense fire points of the defenders in front.
Tracer shells can correct the trajectory of the Devil Infantry, and can also provide guidance on the direction of fire for the Devil Artillery in the rear.
According to the direction of the tracer attack in front, the devil artillery immediately changed the direction of the shelling, aiming at the dense points of the defenders' fire and opening artillery strikes.
Even at night, the shells and bullets of the devils have a high hit rate.
"Da !!"
"Boom, boom, boom!!"
As soon as the defenders' machine guns and mortars fired, several grenade grenades would immediately fall down, and the fire hit rate of the devils was simply terrifying.
After fighting for half an hour, the heavy firepower of the defenders in the forward position was completely destroyed, and the devil's firepower was so fierce that the defenders on the position could not resist the enemy's attack with only some light weapons.
The casualties of a regiment of the 18th Brigade guarding the forward position have reached half, and most of the remaining soldiers are wounded, and basically have no combat effectiveness.
A colonel of the garrison, stumbling into the regimental headquarters.
The colonel shook the phone several times, but the brigade headquarters on the other end of the phone did not respond at all.
The devil's artillery fire is so fierce, the communication telephone line has long been blown up.
