Macho Wars

There was chaos in the trench for a while, screams and curses one after another, and the bewildered soldiers looked at the same dizzy officer without waiting for them to figure out the fucking situation in front of them, countless stiff, cigarette-drawn bars Things suddenly fell from the sky, and they fell all over the trench...

Chapter 436

The Northwest Rebel Command, Commander-in-Chief General Harov looked at the roaring south of the artillery without expression. He had just learned through the radio that the two infantry regiments that had been thrown into the first round of offensive had been defeated by the defenders at the front. In forty minutes, more than 1,000 people and 27 tanks and armored vehicles were lost.

Judging from the feedback from the frontline commanders, the defenders prepared a very special "trap" for them at the front of the position-a trench with a depth of nearly three meters and a width of about one and a half meters. Many soldiers did not jump down. Can climb up.

As for the real line of defense of the defending army, fifty meters away behind this trench, as soon as the attacking force jumped in, the opponent immediately greeted them with a grenade.

The attacking troops who were bombarded immediately called for tank reinforcements, but these iron bumps were also overwhelmed at this time.Although the off-road capability of the track is stronger than that of the wheel, it does not mean that there is no problem with any kind of road.The attacking troops underestimated the muddy degree of the ground. Many tanks only drove out less than 300 meters, the tracks were blocked by the sticky mud, and the speed of travel was greatly reduced. They were left behind behind the charging infantry.

And when they finally drove up, they realized that the situation was not right.

Although there are plain terrain within dozens of kilometers around the fortress of Mount Doro, the ground is not like high-quality steel plates, and there is no ups and downs at all.

The trench dug out by the First Marine Division was just a small soil slope with a height of up to two or three meters. The slope on the south side was deliberately increased by the soil that the engineers used to dig the trench. The tanks of the rebels only needed to be opened up. , It just happens to reveal his weak "crotch", and the defender's war defense guns are waiting for this moment!

As the main armored unit with the largest number of equipment in the empire at present, the Tusk tank adopts a first-on-one design.In theory, the hardest parts of the front can effectively defend against 75mm tank gun attacks, but this does not include the lower part of the chassis.

Many experienced veteran armored soldiers know that this place is vulnerable to the focus of the enemy's attention, so they often press on spare tracks or scrap tires that come in from other troops to increase additional defense.But even so, it is still easy to be easily penetrated by the 37mm anti-aircraft guns equipped by second-line troops.

Dragoon, who was born in armor, was naturally aware of this weakness, so he made good use of the terrain. As soon as the tanks of the rebels went uphill, they were immediately targeted by the anti-aircraft guns waiting for the battle. The ultra-close range was 40 to 50 meters. , Really cannonball!

The first round of the rebel offensive was easily defeated by the First Marine Division, but Admiral Kharov didn’t care at all. The first wave of attack was just a test, and the loss of thousands to 800 people was like drizzle in his eyes. , It's not worth mentioning at all.

"Huh! He is indeed capable, but he picked the wrong opponent!"

In Kharov's view, although the First Marine Division had gained a little advantage by relying on those new aerial weapons and cleverness, it was not enough to reverse the huge gap in military strength between the two sides.In addition to the two regiments in his hands, there is also a reserve regiment that has just completed the recall on the way behind him, and is expected to arrive on the front line in three days.

And he has already given Dragon a chance to surrender and save his life. Since he himself doesn't know how to cherish, then it is no wonder that Harov is cruel!

"Order the artillery to suppress the fortress and concentrate a division to attack their left flank."

"But Commander, our current stock of shells is seriously insufficient..."

"You don't need to save as much as you want! When the cannonballs are out, please ask your Majesty (Filawi). Our primary goal now is to cut off the retreat of the pseudo-imperialist and rebellious party. This is the most important strategic goal. No matter how much sacrifice is made, it is worth it!"

"Yes!"

After the first round of offensive was frustrated, Kharov immediately made tactical adjustments.This time he concentrated on a division and stormed a point of the defending line. At the same time, the artillery took out all the ammunition on hand and used it to output the maximum firepower.

Since the first round of tentative attacks did not find the weak point of the first Marine Division's defense line, Kharov directly selected the most ideal attack condition based on the terrain.Dragone naturally knows the terrain well, so the troops deployed in this position are the most independent regiments in the division.

Taking advantage of aerial reconnaissance, Dragon, who was in the fortress headquarters, quickly identified the enemy's main attack direction.And seeing the momentum of the other party, Kharov didn't even want to move slowly with him. He raised his hand and shot it up with the troops of a division.

What is the opponent's tactical level, Dragoon is not easy to evaluate, but this strategic intention is very clear, that is, to fight through as quickly as possible.

Soon, the position of the Independence Regiment was on fire with the enemy.The opponent's offensive is extremely fierce, showing a very good level of infantry coordination.

But the Independence regiment was a troop brought out by Dragon, and the second regiment commander, Colonel Shatz, was not a general one. Using the advantages of semi-automatic and fully automatic weapons in short-term engagement, he just blocked the enemy's massive onslaught. .

On this 1,800-meter-long battle line, the light gray representing the Northwest Military Region and the dark brown representing the Marine Corps, like two distinct tides, slammed into each other fiercely.

On the position of the second battalion, Frank, the battalion commander, also took his rifle and came to the front line, shooting at the rebel soldiers who were about to rush to his face.The rain of bullets flying across the battlefield kept reaping the lives on both sides. Frank’s comrades continued to fall by his side. The officers and noncommissioned officers were roaring hoarse and trying their best to maintain the line of defense.

With a crisp sound of "ding", Frank finished playing the third magazine, and a rebel soldier who was already less than twenty meters away fell to the ground.The bullet pierced his chest, and Frank saw the unwilling face when the opponent fell.

"Fifth! Grass!"

Frank, who had been retracted into the trench, was changing his bombs while cursing bitterly. He had just killed the enemy, but they were all his own not long ago.Compared with the simple-minded big-head soldiers, Frank, who has received elite education since childhood, understands politics, but because of his understanding, he hates this damn civil war more than others.

Obviously he was fighting in the same room, but he had to fight for survival and the so-called honor. This made him feel that his mind was about to become chaotic.

"Fuck it, what an honor!"

After changing the fourth magazine, Frank catted to his waist and quickly moved to another shooting point in the trench. As a result, just after he was together, he found a rebel tank 30 meters away from the front, and the black hole's muzzle was just facing Yourself.

In an instant, Frank thought he was over, and he was about to die on the battlefield in a very miserable way "honorably".But at this moment, a cannon came from behind Frank, and an armor-piercing projectile accurately hit the turret seat of the early Tusk tank, and the violent explosion instantly threw the tank’s turret high. To the air.

Frank looked back with lingering fears, the reinforcements of the armored regiment arrived in time when they needed it most!

Chapter 437

Howard, who had been in a coma for three days and two nights at the Imperial Naval Hospital in Horn Harbor, finally escaped from the ghost gate and opened his eyes on the hospital bed.

In front of his bed, the empress dowager Susan was looking at him with concern.These days when Howard was seriously injured and unconscious, for the first time in her life, she realized what it means to be isolated and helpless. Faced with the sudden turn of the war, the officials could not come up with any countermeasures and would only shirk each other.And the third brother Levins, who was once high hopes by her, was completely unreliable.

These noble bureaucrats who have been in the center of the empire for a long time are indeed good at fighting factions, but the eldest prince Felavi never thought of following their rules of the game, so Howard fell, these people It's all messed up.

Now that they have fled the imperial capital in a hurry, they are about to be forced into the sea, and some people's minds have begun to move their best to watch the wind.

Susan hates the disloyalty of these people, but there is nothing to do with them.

After all, this "Vase Queen" really doesn't understand anything, except for the most respected eldest brother Howard, she doesn't know who to trust.

"Brother, you finally woke up!"

"Um... how long have I lie down, where is this place?"

Although his mind was hazy and he hadn't fully awakened yet, Howard had not forgotten the most important thing. Despite the dissuasion of Susan and the surrounding medical staff, he struggled to sit up, but immediately noticed the strange numbness of his legs.

Howard's face sank, then took two deep breaths, and told others.

"Get me a wheelchair...no! Directly ask my adjutant to call all the main persons in charge of the headquarters. I need to understand the current situation immediately, immediately!"

Under Howard's repeated insistence, the nurses had to follow his instructions and ask the guards outside the door to follow suit.They saw Howard's current emotions were very excited, who didn't dare to tell him the bad news, his adjutant had sacrificed on the spot to protect him.

Soon, a group of officers hurried to the hospital with maps and documents, and then at Howard's request, hung a huge strategic map on the wall of the ward.

When Howard saw the situation of the enemy and us marked on the map, even if he had already prepared mentally in advance, he couldn't help but feel dizzy.I've only been in a coma for a few days now, and I was chased and beaten into this virtue!?

Howard stared at the map for a long time, pointed to one of them and asked.

"Which unit is currently stationed at the Fortress of Mount Doro?"

"Chief Hui, it is the First Marine Division, commanded by Brigadier General Li. They have been holding on for a day and night, and the Northwestern rebels have not been able to move forward.

"Huh! Finally there is something reliable."

Hearing that the strategic point was that Dragon and his troops were defending, Howard could not help but nodded. This is the only good news he has heard since he woke up.As long as the Duoluoshan Fortress is still there, the life channel from the imperial capital to the coast will not be cut off, and they will also have time and space to regain their strength.

Howard has figured it out at this time. He no longer feels confused. Firavi may indeed be a talented and ambitious and excellent prince, but a monarch who purges dissidents by massacre, his rule will only Bringing disaster to the people of this country, Howard can hardly agree with these practices.

However, as far as the current situation is concerned, Firavi has the advantage, and it is impossible for Howard to reverse the occupation with the existing power at hand.

For the present, he can only save his vitality as much as possible for the future.

And first, they need a stable rear, with rich product and population resources, and a comprehensive and complete industrial base.But at the moment there is no place in the empire that meets the conditions. The rebel forces are scattered all over the country, and their people are moving everywhere, and there is almost no quiet place.
