Chapter 481: No Way to Defend
In the command room of the Eight-Nation Alliance Army in the eastern city of Krasnoyarsk, the army commanders of several countries who received battle reports from their positions outside the city could not help but show helpless wry smiles to each other.
The commander of the British Army, Collenhardt, held the battle report in his hand, and said with a sigh: "This kind of battle is too difficult, it has only been one hour since the battle, and we have lost nearly a quarter of our positions outside the city, and if we continue like this, we may not be able to lose our entire positions outside the city by noon, alas-"
The commander of the French Army, who is also the commander of the entire coalition army, Joyce shook his head and said: "This is not enough, the positions that are lost now are all captured by the Dingbei Army a few days ago, although they have been repaired by us, but the solidity of the fortifications has decreased a lot after all, and the terrain of these positions is relatively gentle, it is understandable that they were lost so quickly, but the positions behind, the Dingbei Army should not think about it so easily." ”
The commander of the 3rd Army of the Russian Army, who is also the commander of Dongcheng Russia, Nika Noorrovich, nodded and said: "The rear position is not only conducive to defense, but also our fortifications are relatively strong, which should be able to resist the Dingbei Army for a longer time, but the attack of the Dingbei Army's aircraft, artillery and tanks, we are really difficult to resist, and if we want to hold the position, we can only fill it with human lives." ”
As soon as Nikanorrovic's words fell, the commanders of several other countries sighed again, the Dingbei Army's offensive method, not to mention that there are 300,000 troops in the positions outside the city, even if it is doubled, there may be no change in the positions outside the city, and the officers and soldiers of the armies of the countries of the Eight-Nation Alliance can only resist with their flesh and blood, and no matter how many people there are, they can't stand it. But their commanders had nothing to do about this situation, and they were really very depressed.
This time compared to the eight-nation alliance command with a sad face. At the headquarters of the five field armies of the Dingbei Army, more than 20 kilometers east of Krasnoyarsk, the atmosphere was much more relaxed.
Wang Hongjun, commander of the First Field Army, said with a smile to the other four commanders of the Field Army: "It's only been one hour of fighting. I took down the results of the battle a whole day a few days ago, and at this rate, I can take down the position of the Eight-Nation Alliance outside the entire city today. ”
Deng Zichao, the commander of the Third Field Army, said with a smile: "Lao Wang, you are thinking about good things, if it weren't for the fact that these positions in front of us were more severely damaged a few days ago, the army of the Eight-Nation Alliance would have been rebuilt, and it was not as strong as before, plus the terrain was not complicated and relatively gentle, so we took it down so quickly." It's also reasonable, but the position behind it is not necessarily so easy. ”
Wang Peng, the commander of the Fifth Field Army next to him, said approvingly: "The position of the Eight-Nation Alliance outside the city is much more complicated, not only is the terrain much more complicated, there are many hills and peaks that are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the fortifications on it are also stronger, and our attack troops are about to start gnawing hard bones." ”
Wang Hongjun waved his hand and said heroically: "Even if it is a hard bone, we have to gnaw it down, as long as God gives face, the weather will not change again." We will definitely take Dongcheng in 3 days. Order the follow-up troops to follow up quickly, be ready to support the attacking troops at the front at any time, and let the artillery and air force not spare shells and bombs, and it is better to blow up the positions of the Eight-Nation Alliance to me. Try to give full play to our firepower superiority and provide adequate support to the infantry. ”
The offensive of the Dingbei Army outside the eastern part of Krasnoyarsk continued, but it was not as strong as it had been at the beginning. However, the mechanized attack of aircraft, artillery and tanks still left the armies of the Eight-Nation Alliance helpless. Although relying on complex terrain and strong fortifications, the progress of the Dingbei Army's attack was suspended. However, the positions were still encroached upon and conquered little by little, and the casualties of the armies of the countries of the Eight-Nation Alliance were skyrocketing.
Zhao Daneng's company has always been one of the front-line attack forces, but as they get deeper and deeper into the positions of the Eight-Nation Alliance, their casualties also increase, and one of the light Black Wolf tanks that cooperated with their attack was destroyed by the Eight-Nation Alliance's battle defense artillery.
Zhao Daneng was placing his heavy machine gun on a dirt bag and firing fiercely at the enemy in a trench on the hillside, and their company was stopped at the bottom of the hillside.
However, the slope of this hillside is not very large, and the heavy Panther tank that has been following them is "suddenly" driving towards the hillside, and as it advances, it uses tank guns and equipped machine guns to fire at the enemy in the trenches on the hillside, and the tank is followed by more than a dozen officers and soldiers of the Dingbei Army, on the one hand, they are to follow the tank into the trench on the hillside, and on the other hand, to protect the tank from being blown up by the enemy's infantry with explosive packs.
At the same time, there are also 2 Yellow Sparrow fighters in the sky constantly diving and strafing the trenches on the hillside, and then pulling the planes up, turning around in the sky, and then diving and strafing......
These two Yellow Bird fighters are not the two that originally cooperated with Zhao Daneng and his company to capture the hills, and the last batch of more than 100 Yellow Bird fighters and more than 60 Blue Eagle bombers of the Northeast Air Force, except for one Yellow Sparrow fighter and one Blue Eagle bomber shot down by the blind cat of the anti-aircraft gun, have all flown back to the temporary airfield more than 100 kilometers east of Krasnoyarsk to replenish ammunition and fuel.
At the same time, the second batch of more than 100 Yellow Sparrow fighters and more than 60 Blue Eagle bombers flew to the sky above the positions outside the city, taking over the task of air support, and the two batches of fighters were in the sky above the battlefield outside the city, completing the handover of the air, so that the air support of the Dingbei Army has not stopped.
The officers and soldiers of the Eight-Nation Alliance on the hillside are a group of Austro-Hungarian army officers and soldiers, although they also have some anti-aircraft guns and battle defense guns, but in the face of the extremely fast Yellow Sparrow fighters, as well as the heavy Panther tanks with thick skin and flesh, these anti-aircraft guns and battle defense guns have become decorations, so when the heavy Panther tank approached the trench on the hillside less than 100 meters, the remaining Austro-Hungarian officers and soldiers in the trench suddenly seemed to have made an appointment, whether it was an officer or a soldier, they all turned around and left the trench at the same time and fled to the back. So 1 heavy Panther tank and more than a dozen officers and soldiers of the Dingbei Army advanced all the way to occupy this hillside.
Zhao Daneng heard the company commander shouting to continue advancing, and immediately leveled the bracket of the heavy machine gun, and was about to follow the troops to continue to attack, at this time Zhao Daneng's face suddenly became nervous, and he found that a small half of his sub-machine gunner Brother Zhang's upper body had been stained red with blood.
"Brother Zhang, are you injured? What's going on? Someone! Medic! Someone is hurt here! Zhao Daneng shouted in a panic.
Brother Zhang's cold sweat came out of pain, but he comforted him and said: "Big one, it's not a big deal, or your Brother Zhang's life is that he was hit by a bullet in the shoulder, and it seems that he has to go to the hospital to enjoy it for a while." ”
Zhao Daneng also found out that Brother Zhang was indeed only hit in the shoulder at this time, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a relaxed tone: "I'm scared to death, then Brother Zhang, you can go to the field hospital and enjoy the care of those beautiful nurses!" Maybe there's something else going on! ”
Brother Zhang wanted to laugh when he heard this, but the wound hurt, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice, "But, big man, I can't help you carry the bullet next, you must be careful when fighting, Brother Zhang doesn't want to be a patient with you." ”
A medical soldier had already come to Brother Zhang's side at this time, checked the condition of the wound, and immediately shouted to the back: "Come here on a stretcher, carry him to the armored car, and send him to the field hospital in the back quickly, he needs to be operated on immediately." ”
Zhao Daneng saw that this medical soldier knew him, so he hurriedly asked, "Brother Ren, does Brother Zhang's injury matter?" ”
The medic said: "There is no injury to the bones, but there is a lot of blood, so it is good to take out the bullet in the back hospital and recuperate for a while." ”
Because a large number of anti-aircraft guns were placed in the positions of the Eight-Nation Alliance, the Dingbei Army did not send armored vehicles to charge with the tanks, otherwise the losses of armored vehicles in the face of a large number of anti-aircraft guns would definitely be very large, and the gains would definitely outweigh the losses, but some armored vehicles were not idle, and were put into the task of transporting the wounded and transporting ammunition to the attacking troops in front.
After Brother Zhang was sent away, Zhao Daneng hurriedly hung two chains of 300 rounds on his body, and then ran to the hillside, and the rest of his comrades in the company had already rushed in front of him.
There are also a lot of unusually strong fortifications in the positions of the Eight-Nation Alliance, such as on another hill, the Russian officers and soldiers in the Army of the Eight-Nation Alliance hollowed out the top of the hill to form a strong bunker group, the Dingbei Army's 155 mm caliber howitzers, and the Air Force's 100 kg bombs, all of which were helpless against this bunker group, and the infantry launched an attack with the cooperation of the tanks, but the result was in vain, losing dozens of people and 1 light black wolf tank.
It's a pity that the Russian army officers and soldiers on the hill didn't be happy for long, 2 formations of 12 Blue Eagle bombers flew to the top of the hill again and began to drop bombs, but this time the Blue Eagle bombers dropped not 100 kg of bombs, but turned into 300 kg of armor-piercing bombs, these armor-piercing bombs were prepared by the Northeast Air Force to deal with strong enemy fortifications, and there were even 800 kg of armor-piercing bombs!
After a violent explosion, the top of this hill became a ruin, 300 kg of armor-piercing bombs penetrated the top of the bunker group, and the explosion even detonated the mountain of ammunition in the bunker group, and none of the Russian army officers and soldiers in the bunker group survived, and this hill was also occupied by the Dingbei Army.
In this way, the Dingbei Army moved forward firmly little by little, while the position of the Eight-Nation Alliance was constantly encroached upon. (To be continued......)
