Chapter 483: It's all hard bones
Ali Jean had no idea that all of a sudden, the Federation army would launch such a sharp and ferocious offensive! Completely caught his soldiers off guard, in just a few minutes, hundreds of corpses have been scattered on the battlefield between the two positions, this one is too explosive!
What's the deal, the other party is pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger!
I was asked for a bite by the spears and cannons of the federal army!
Ali rang so angry that he swung his fist fiercely, and the first attack was in vain! I didn't expect that after two hours of wild bombardment, the other party didn't receive much of a blow, just now they were just waiting for the opportunity to fight back!
Ali rang picked up the binoculars and carefully watched the two positions of the Sixth Army in the distance, only to see that the trenches on the positions were staggered, in addition, there were a series of earthen ramparts, covering the bodies of the soldiers of the Sixth Army tightly, their own infantry can at most rely on rifles to suppress the opponent's firepower, but it will never hurt the opponent's body, unless every soldier has the ability to shoot the head, otherwise it is absolutely impossible!
Artillery, only by using artillery to constantly exert pressure on the opponent, can the opponent's defensive fire be suppressed, and then under the cover of artillery fire, the charge can be successful!
"Order the artillery to attack the position in front of you again, suppress the opponent's fire, and order the 20th Brigade and the 21st Brigade to attack the opponent's position again!"
Ali Jean was still unwilling to give the order to attack again!
The sound of artillery on the Confederate positions shook the sky again, and this time, not only the infantry positions of the Union Army were covered, but also the artillery positions behind were completely enveloped!
However, this time the Union Army was not passively beaten, an artillery battalion, twenty guns began to launch a counterattack against the Confederate Army! At this time, the federal artillery was specially deployed positions, and the artillery was all under the cover of sand and gravel, and some ensured the concealment of their own firepower points, while the Confederate army suffered a loss, without any cover, all the artillery was on the ground, and the most unfortunate thing was that they were under the hills, while the federal army was on the mounds, condescending, and had absolute superiority!
Although the artillery strength of the Union Army is inferior to that of the Confederate Army, it is condescending, and it actually fights with the opponent with great sound, and does not fall behind at all!
Hundreds of shells flew up and down the sky, constantly causing violent explosions, and the turf on the ground had already been blown away without a trace, and turned into a scorched earth!
Two brigades of Confederate troops, under the cover of artillery, once again launched an attack on the Union Army!
This time, the officers and men of the Southern Army were a lot more cautious, and they no longer dared to charge forward in such strides, one by one they bowed their waists and touched the top of the mound, and the rifles in their hands continued to shoot, suppressing the firepower of the officers and men of the Federal Army.
However, it is not so easy to suppress the firepower of the Federation soldiers, the bodies of the Federation soldiers are all within the fortifications, only the heads are exposed, and it is not so easy to hit with one hit, after all, not every soldier has the excellent marksmanship of the Scout Special Forces!
The soldiers of the north and south sides began to face each other at the front of the position, the bullets rained down, completely enveloping the entire battlefield, and the federal army wanted to retreat the advance and attack of the Confederate army like last time, and it became a lot more difficult, the soldiers of the Southern Army were in the rain of bullets, and they could only move forward slowly, for more than an hour, the strength of the two brigades of the soldiers of the Southern Army was only advanced to a position of about 100 meters, but it became more and more difficult to take a step forward, after all, the closer the distance, the higher the shooting hit rate of the federal army, The chances of casualties among the officers and soldiers of the Southern Army will also become much greater!
The Southern Army launched several charges, all of which were ruthlessly beaten back by the officers and soldiers of the Federation Army, and the distance of 100 meters became a barrier of death.
After several charges, the vain officers and men of the Southern Army had to retreat back again!
After a few hours of testing, Ali Rang already knew that the officers and soldiers of the Federation Army on the opposite side were definitely in their own Southern Army in terms of command of the battle, or in terms of individual soldier quality, even if they were their most elite descendants, they were definitely not opponents!
That's natural, Gao Qi led the most elite first division, which is built with a large number of coalition troops and the elite of Baoding Town as the backbone, and the combat power is far stronger than the second division and the third division, which is definitely not comparable to the elite of the ordinary federal army, even the Confederate army of Ali Rang is definitely not their opponent!
Since this bone is hard to gnaw, let's change it and gnaw on it!
Ali made his heart indignant, he actually met such a hard bone here, and he was considered unlucky, of course, what he didn't know was that there were more people who were more unlucky than him! For example, Morris, the general of the Rangers, and Sturridge, the general of the confederate government, were more unlucky than the other, and they were all worse than Ali Jean, which one was not a big defeat, or even almost wiped out.
"Order, adjust the direction of the attack, order the artillery position to launch a tentative attack on the right side of the Union Army position, the 26th Brigade and the 27th Brigade are ready to charge towards the right position, pay attention to be careful, the opponent's firepower is no worse than ours!"
Ali Jean once again launched a sharp attack on the right position of Wang Haonan in charge, one by one the shells fell on the position that Wang Haonan was responsible for, Wang Haonan led the strength of the second division, this army had just participated in the battle of the assault Sturridge, a battle completely beat the spirit of the second division, in the face of the elite Confederate army, the sixth army fought smoothly, just one day, the Sturridge was beaten to the ground, the soldiers of the second division not only accumulated practical experience, This morale is at a high time!
Looking at the officers and men of the Southern Army who charged over in the distance, Wang Haonan gave an order, the guns and cannons rang out in unison, and the bullets rained down, rushing straight to the Southern Army, and the two sides once again launched a tug-of-war at the front of the position, I have to say that the artillery of the Southern Army is stronger than the artillery of the Second Division, not only is there a large number, but also the technology of the artillery is not comparable to the recruits of the Second Division, and the shells of the Southern Army continue to fall on the positions of the Second Division, if it is not for the tunnel fortifications, it will definitely suffer heavy casualties.
But now, the Second Division has trenches and fortifications to help, no matter how fierce the artillery fire of the Confederate army is, in a short period of time, it will definitely not be able to help the soldiers of the Second Division, and can only occupy the advantage on the surface, but even so, Wang Haonan will not do it, specially, Gao Qi is so powerful, it will not work when he arrives at Lao Tzu? I can't afford to lose that person!
