Chapter 106: Platoon Guns
In a sharp whistling, in the southern area of Tashan, a signal flare rose into the air, issuing an order to the Kingdom Army within a radius of 5 kilometers.
At the same time, the vanguard of the Kingdom, which had advanced 300 meters in front of the enemy camp, immediately attacked.
The continuous sound of "tom, tom" was also constantly emitted, and one after another smoke bombs were fired by grenade launchers, and smashed on the enemy positions that had been reconnoitred before.
Immediately afterward, the albatrosses, who had already circled in the sky three or four times, had figured out the situation below, and one by one they swooped down towards the place where the smoke was rising.
The smoke obscures the view of those below, making it impossible for enemy troops in the smoke to see what's going on in the sky.
Taking advantage of this good timing, the first albatross "Red Baron", as the head bird, reduced its altitude to the greatest extent and released its claws when it entered the air about 100 meters away from the enemy.
In the sound of breaking the air, a 25-pound bomb broke away from its sharp claws and fell with air insurance.
The safety rope in the air quickly pulled closer and straightened, and after the bomb reached about 50 meters away from the albatross, the "Red Baron" seemed to be stunned, and the rope seemed to be pulled from the middle area of the bomb to the edge of the bomb.
Once here, the rope was between the bomb and the albatross, completely straightened, and some of the force was overwhelmed.
But after all, when it was manufactured, the structural strength was increased at the edge of the monomer on the side of the bomb, and the strength of the fixed position on the albatross leg ring was consciously controlled.
So, the rope was disconnected on this side of the albatross.
The "Red Baron", who was free from the shackles, immediately rose up.
The aerial bomb, in the process of diving, had already corrected its course and rushed straight to the location of the smoke on the ground.
After a violent explosion, a large crater was blown out of the originally flat ground.
Around the crater, in addition to the bloody bones, a completely deformed cannon barrel can be found.
300 meters away, in a hidden lurking location, an officer stepped out of the crowd, and when he ran two steps, he shouted, "One shift, follow me." The order reached the ears of the warriors lurking around.
This kind of thing of officers taking the lead abounds in the kingdom's military, which is already the most basic common sense. The slogan "Rush me" in the Kingdom Army is absolutely not allowed to appear.
As a national armed force transformed from a revolutionary army composed of slaves, the soldiers of Huaxia have never lacked subjective initiative, especially officers, who have always been the leading models in the army.
The bombardment eliminated all the artillery arranged on the periphery, and the soldiers who fought in the vanguard did not have the greatest threat, and their mood was much lighter, and they naturally rushed much more briskly.
Most of the enemies on the outer defensive line fled in the midst of the huge explosion just now, and the few who remained, except for those who were frightened, were stupid and bold.
The warriors of the kingdom who dare to fight the vanguard are naturally good at military skills, and when the pump-action rifle sleeve is pulled, one by one single-headed bullets or deer bullets are accurately hit on the enemy's body.
18.5mm caliber rifle bullets, hitting the human body, no matter what part, will make the enemy unable to move, and completely lose combat effectiveness.
And, most of the time, the fighters hit the torso with their shots.
After hitting here, even if it didn't touch the key internal organs, the powerful impact of the soft lead bullet completely released all the kinetic energy on the body in an instant, and immediately caused the person who was hit to die on the spot.
And because the kingdom army had already sent sharp soldiers to eliminate the sentry horses outside the enemy camp before the attack, the attack was very sudden.
The enemy met in a hurry, and most of the arquebuses had not yet been lit, and even the bows and arrows at the waists of some good hands had not yet been hung.
Therefore, it is simply impossible to fight back in time.
With the first round of bombardment and charge, the forward fighters of the 1601st Battalion easily occupied the enemy's outlying positions on the north and south sides.
However, after arriving here, the soldiers and officers who had led the charge just now stopped together.
In the enemy camp, there are at least more than 3,000 horses, although most of them are logistics baggage soldiers, but the matter of ants biting elephants to death has not happened in history, and the kingdom is not afraid of death, but it will not deliberately send it to death.
In addition, the commanders at all levels had repeatedly given orders before the war that the vanguard squad, after occupying the enemy's outlying positions, should wait for the arrival of the large army, and after everyone formed a dense gun formation, they would advance together.
All the officers kept in mind everything that had been said at the pre-war briefing.
Therefore, next, the soldiers of the 1601st Battalion Headquarters Company, the First Reconnaissance Company, and the Second Reconnaissance Company of the 1601st Battalion in the eastern, southern, and northern directions began to cooperate closely.
"Rely on the crater bombed by aerial bombs as a bunker to form a defensive line on the spot."
"Chief, the enemy is coming."
"Shoot as fast as you can and break them up."
"Bang ······"
"Stop firing and hurry up and reload your ammunition."
"Lao Li is on alert to prevent the enemy from counterattacking, and the rest of the people continue to rest the defensive line and wait for the arrival of the large army."
"Beard, fire a smoke bomb at the assembled team over there,"
"One o'clock direction, high-explosive grenades, one, fired."
"At three o'clock, a platoon of guns fired, a round, fired."
The officers who took the lead organized everyone to shoot at the enemy camp with the most fierce firepower, and at the same time seized the time to build a defensive line when the enemy troops were repulsed.
Two kilometers away from the enemy's camp, the large troops of the 1601st Battalion, which were hidden, were already rapidly approaching their respective forward units at this time.
Before the arrival of the large forces, the duty of the forward troops is to hold the existing positions as much as possible, and to do their best to delay the enemy's build-up.
"Chief, look, the enemy has re-chosen the rendezvous point at 12 o'clock."
"Distance."
"More than 500 meters."
"I'm the next Ao, the Tartar is smart." The officer thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, and gave the order, "One shift, rush with me and advance 200 meters." Provides an effective range for grenade launchers. ”
After that, he once again took the lead and rushed to the front.
Having encountered a small group of enemy troops on the way, the officer did not make any stops, shouting orders, and continued to move forward: "Platoon guns, rounds, shooting." ”
"Bang ······"
A volley of guns completely broke down the enemy troops blocking the road, and the forward troops advanced again.
After breaking up the enemy forces in the second group, they finally moved to a distance of 300 meters from the enemy troops.
"12 o'clock, smoke bombs, one shot, fire."
Five seconds later, the place where the enemy's assembly was smoked and shed tears, again hit a 25-pound aerial bomb.
In the midst of the flying flesh and blood, the enemy army was defeated by another large-scale assembly operation.
