Chapter 84: Overplayed
In fact, Liu Bei also entered the blind spot, he had more than 50 artillery pieces but forgot to use them.
How to deal with a very strange position, that is, of course, to bombard with artillery. Although it was a bit wasteful, after Xun You put forward this opinion, Liu Bei also felt that this was indeed the best means.
Of course, he had another option, and that was to spare this line of defense. However, this is equivalent to admitting the fact that there are more than 20,000 of them, and they can't help this mere 100 people......
At least no general dares to ride a horse now, and unless a general on a horse leaves the range of fire, the opponent's cold gun will suddenly come out, and then harvest the general's life.
Three high-ranking officers have already been killed, one of whom is Xiahoushang, Xiahoushang's nephew. Although the other generals have dismounted, there is always the shadow of death hanging over them, and they are not at peace.
"Strategist, do you say that the other side deliberately arranged this kind of position, intending to consume our shells?" Liu Bei suddenly thought of a possibility, and then he looked at Chen Gong.
In terms of staff skills, Xun You's family education is more abundant, but Chen Gong is his cronies, so he is more trustworthy.
"My subordinates have also thought about this possibility, so I don't dare to say more." Chen Gong returned with his hand, thinking that he had also considered Xun You's suggestion, but it was precisely because he was worried that the other party would have this plan, so he could only think of other ways.
"It's just a round of shelling, so what's there to be afraid of? This position was bulldozed, and there was no danger along the way! No matter how big it is, we'll take a detour. "Xiahoudun didn't want to waste too much time here.
Having seen Fang Yunjun's strength, he was naturally very worried about the situation on Cao Cao's side. What I hope most now is to end the matter here as soon as possible, and then go over to help Cao Cao deal with Fang Yunjun's headquarters. If it's really hard here, just give up!
Liu Bei also felt that it was only like this now. Immediately ordered an artillery attack.
The artillery was quickly calibrated, then fired, and a large number of shells landed in the middle of the position, and then quickly exploded. This move is indeed very powerful, and it directly hit all the spiritual explosive bombs in the ground. Fortunately, the principle of the spirit explosive bomb is completely different from that of a firearm, and it is not detonated by gunpowder. So there was no martyrdom, otherwise it would have been worse.
More shells fell into the trench, but fortunately, Huang Xu had already prepared and had already dug an anti-artillery hole, and when he saw that the other party was preparing to shell, he immediately ordered the soldiers below to hide in the hole.
Fortunately, the artillery of the combined forces is a relatively primitive type, so the power is not great, and after a bombardment, this kind of anti-artillery hole made of cement and concrete. The warriors were not harmed except by the dust they were all over.
Seeing that the artillery bombardment was over, they quickly walked out of the anti-artillery hole, continued to hold their positions, and then carefully checked the enemy's situation.
"Charge!" Seeing that the other party was no longer moving, Liu Bei and the others also thought that the artillery had already had an effect, and quickly issued the order to charge. However, for insurance, 500 soldiers with thickened shields were wielded. Rushed to the forefront.
Seeing the rapid advance of the large army, Liu Bei and Xiahoudun could already predict the demise of this position. It's just that I feel that so much time has been wasted in such a small place. It's really not worth it.
But I didn't want to, but at this time, there was a muffled sound from the front line, followed by a miserable scream from the soldiers under his command, and finally a large number of soldiers fell to the ground and died. Before I understood what was going on, the situation was still expanding.
"Stand back. Hurry back! Liu Bei couldn't help but shout, and the commander of the front line quickly gave an order.
The soldiers quickly retreated, and at least a thousand people lay on the ground in front of them. The bad luck has been but the sieve has to be reached, and the good luck is just the final **, maybe the latter is unlucky. After all, no one was going to save him.
No one could forget what had just happened, only five machine guns were rapidly strafing, and those but as if it were pouring rain down on them. The ammunition penetrated the shield, at least in the second shot, and sent the soldiers behind them into a sieve.
The bullets are further harvesting the lives of their comrades, and they can only find ways to advance, after all, the military order is like a mountain. Fortunately, the Lord's conscience was discovered and they retreated, otherwise they don't know how many lives they would have to fill in before they could advance to the opponent's position.
At the same time, the snipers also began to shoot, specifically looking for the opposing officer.
From the lowest-ranking commander to the highest-ranking commander, as long as they were found to be officers, they were all shot one by one. The bullet pierced the heart or head, but in an instant, a life was harvested.
Without the command of the officer, the non-commissioned officers below were completely in chaos. Even if they return to their home camp, they don't know what to do next. They stood there confused, as if they had not yet recovered from the previous shock, and they waited for the arrangement of their superiors, or to elect an officer to be the temporary commander.
"Artillery, shoot! The infantry took the opportunity to advance! Liu Bei thought about it and gave the order again.
This time the artillery again poured shells and hit the enemy positions directly. This arc-shaped attack is indeed very suitable for dealing with the soldiers in the trenches. But fortunately, the soldiers quickly hid in the anti-artillery holes, at least avoiding most of the shelling, and even so, the first casualties appeared!
A shell fell directly in front of the anti-artillery hole, and the fragments after the explosion directly took the lives of three soldiers.
The infantry began to advance a second time, presumably under the cover of artillery, so they had nothing to fear. Before they knew it, they were advancing to within seventy meters, not far from the enemy's position. They seemed to see hope, so they picked it up.
The artillery shelled for the second time, and this time they had experience and carried out targeted bombardment. The result was the taking of the lives of seven soldiers. More than a dozen of them were out of the way, braved the artillery fire and returned to the position with heavy machine guns, and began to strafe the enemy soldiers.
There was not much time left for them, but the proximity of the other side also had the advantage, that is, the artillery troops did not dare to shoot at the moment.
They quickly strafed and gained valuable preparation time for the rest of the heavy machine gunners to follow. At the same time, more than 30 soldiers took out grenadiers and fired spirit bombs at the most dense places of the enemy.
These Psychic Bombs have a certain delay, about three seconds. It is the latest product of the Lingwu Military Factory. With the help of the grenadier, it flew out of a distance of more than 70 meters, fell into the crowd, and finally exploded.
The intense flames lasted for more than twenty seconds, and the heat of more than five hundred degrees scorched all the soldiers within a radius of ten meters. The use of spirit explosives bought valuable time for the machine-gun troops, who quickly strafed them. Further expand the results.
Liu Bei and Xiahoudun were also red-eyed, where would they retreat at this moment, and they killed the enemy position like this.
After a while, the two of them worked together to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and slammed a nirvana towards the position, and suddenly the smoke and dust billowed out, and everyone's sight was temporarily deprived.
At this moment, Huang Xu is barely alive, but it is definitely not much better. It's just that he is a first-class general, and he is not comfortable at the moment.
As for the other comrades-in-arms around him, almost all of them were either dead or wounded. Fortunately, they quickly fled along the trench, which avoided directly dealing with the bombardment of the two special moves.
Before retreating, they carried out a simple treatment of the part of the weapon that was left behind, and after thirty seconds, all the spiritual energy in the spiritual martial arts would pour out for the first time, and at the same time, with the help of the burst spirit and flame transformation spirit in series, it would turn into a monstrous fire wave. Cover this area.
All the machine guns and explosive shells in it will be completely burned. Don't think about anything from the enemy! But the question is, how are they going to get out of here! The enemy will not give up the pursuit of them!
At this moment, more than 20 shells fell in front of them and exploded in the enemy's position, and then flames rose one after another, scorching Liu Bei's soldiers.
Liu Bei and Xiahoudun were also in the burning range. The two of them were not afraid, and suddenly burst out with powerful true qi, and directly extinguished these flames with special skill-level moves. For this reason, they can consume more than fifty percent of their True Qi!
Who knows that a wave of unevenness will rise again and again. When the time arrived, the entire position was suddenly surrounded by flames. With a high temperature of more than 500 degrees and continuous burning, even if the two of them tried their best to put out the last true qi, they might not be able to extinguish the fire.
They can only choose to retreat, and as for those soldiers who are already in the flames, they can only express regret.
The fire lasted for more than three minutes, during which time Huang Xu and the others had quickly fled under the cover of armored vehicles. What was left for Liu Bei was just a position that had been almost destroyed.
In just such a moment, in more than an hour, Liu Bei's troops directly killed 15,000 people, and only killed less than 100 enemy troops. Even if they finally won this position, they would have lost more than they gained.
At this moment, they can't even think of a decisive battle with Xu Lebu, they just want to leave this ghost place as soon as possible!
Huang Xu came to the second line of defense, Xu Le personally greeted him, and offered him the most sincere congratulations. 100 people killed 15,000 people on the other side, and it was a myth that less wins more!
It's just that they don't know that in real history, Zhang Liao once repelled Sun Quan's tens of thousands of troops with hundreds of cavalry. However, considering that one is repulsion and the other is elimination, Huang Xu's results are still very dazzling!
"The last general did not hold the first line of defense, please punish the division commander!" Huang Xu was the first to confess.
"Eh, what are you guilty of? I'm still worried, what will happen if you hit too hard and the other party scatters like this! It's just right now, so that they don't lose the courage to attack, and don't let them have a good time. Rest well, I'll help you replenish your soldiers, and then let the other fighters get better! Xu Le was relieved.
"Whoa!" When Huang Xu heard this, he was a little better, and he gave up his hand and retired, and then left with the remnants.
Looking at Huang Xu, who was leaving, and then at the position of the enemy in the distance, Xu Le couldn't help but be entangled at the moment. The second line of defense, is it to let the other party taste some sweetness? Otherwise, I'm afraid there is no way to drag the enemy here...... (To be continued.) )
PS: After the birth of the Maxim heavy machine gun, it has created countless miracles of war. And Fang Yun's side is equipped with heavy machine guns, and only five of them are needed to create an iron wall. It's not that I don't want to equip more, but this thing consumes not gunpowder but heaven and earth aura, and it's Lingwu instead of fire, so too much will affect the function, and even make it so depressed that I can't shoot in the end.
