Chapter 760: Battle for 760 factory

 Chapter 760 Battle for 760 Factory

The sky has completely darkened. Under normal circumstances, the Tang Army would temporarily stop attacking at this time, because night fighting has too many disadvantages for the Tang Army and is far less comfortable than during the day.

 But this time, the Tang Army fired flares and began to launch a frantic attack on the Dahua Army's position in the darkening evening. The Dahua defenders were caught off guard and even lost their outer positions in the southern part of Fengjiang City.

Amidst the continuous artillery fire, the vanguard of the Tang army's attack rushed into a house on the edge of the city. There were also various ammunition boxes piled on the ground that had not been taken away, and there were some dishes and chopsticks on the table in the room. It seemed that some Dahua soldiers had dinner here just now.

"Check the ground carefully! Don't be fooled by booby traps!" The squad leader carried his assault rifle behind his back, grabbed a piece of tissue paper from the table, and looked at the words on it with the help of the light that was not completely dark outside. Word.

 Nothing important, just a list of using ammo and replenishing ammo. This seems to be a small arms storage point near the front line, and there probably won't be any important maps or documents.

"Safe!" After checking the entire yard, a Tang Army soldier walked into the house and said to his squad leader: "Everyone ran away, no one was left."

 Due to the shelling, the courtyard walls here have collapsed. There are two huge craters on the edge of the courtyard. The huge shock wave even destroyed the shack next to it along with the walls.

Not far away you can still see the trenches built by the Dahua troops, but there is no one there now. Another infantry squad had occupied the place and was consolidating the line there.

Further ahead is a wall that looks stronger. On the other side of the wall is a factory, which is now abandoned, and half of the chimney can still be seen vaguely.

"This time the commander feels comfortable. We have already touched the edge of the Fengjiang River." Through the window, the squad leader looked at the wall, his face filled with the joy of victory.

Their 7th Army was very brave this time. They fought for nearly ten kilometers in one breath, broke through countless enemy defense lines, and finally reached here!

The factory wall was actually riddled with holes and collapsed in many places. You can guess without any investigation that Dahua's troops must have organized a new line of defense based on the outer wall, but they don't know exactly how many people the other side has deployed.

While he was observing the fence, a No. 4 assault gun supporting the attack of the 7th Infantry Army also parked on the side of the small courtyard. Another infantry squad that followed found some bunkers and began to rest. Many People took out biscuits and broken instant noodles to satisfy their hunger.

 There is no chance to eat hot meals or dishes on the battlefield, so we can only use the simplest method to replenish our physical strength. The Tang army was quite good in this regard, but the Dahua army did not have such a wide variety of food.

The squad leader of the infantry squad who arrived later walked into the room carrying a rifle and greeted the squad leader who came first: "How are you? Have you gone to the front to have a look?"

"No, the wall over there looks very quiet. I guess there are at least two machine guns." Pointing to the factory wall in the distance outside the window, the squad leader who came first said.

His infantry squad had only 7 people left in the battle. He did not want to continue to lose troops here, so he slowed down the attack.

"Let's go first. Do you have machine guns? Can you provide some firepower on the flanks?" The squad leader who had just arrived approached the window, looked at it, and then retracted his head and suggested.

"Okay, I'll lead people to set up machine gun positions on the flanks to cover your approach!" The squad leader who was here earlier nodded and agreed to this arrangement.

"Do you have grenades? Lend me some." The squad leader who came later continued to make his request: "When I go back, I will give you a share of the credit."

"No need, Zhang Kai. Put away everyone's grenades and use them for our brothers to attack the enemy." The squad leader who came first waved his hand boldly. He really deserved the credit for his collaborative efforts all the way.

　　When they attacked the Qin Army's position before, as long as half of the battle merit was calculated accurately, their unit could also get collective merit, and it was certain that each person would receive a White Blade Medal.

 “Thank you!” The squad leader who came later nodded and called for people to come get the extra grenades and ammunition. They fought all the way to this position, and most of the ammunition they replenished was actually borrowed from each other.

It is not easy to keep up with the ammunition replenishment during the attack, so it is necessary to rotate the troops. Let the main attacking troops wait for the subsequent troops to come up, and then exchange combat positions or simply let the subsequent troops hand over their ammunition to the main attacking troops for continued use.

Soon, a new round of attack began. Under the cover of the No. 4 assault gun, the Tang Army's troops began to attack towards the courtyard wall.

Here, the squad leader of the Tang Army who arrived at the flank position with his machine gunner saw the Dahua troops moving near the courtyard wall.

The opponent doesn't seem to have many people. A machine gun has exposed its position and is firing in an attempt to drive back the Tang Army's assault gun.

"Did you see that machine gun? Suppress it!" Pointing to the enemy machine gun that was spitting out tongues of flame in the distance, the squad leader ordered loudly.

 The shooter who set up the machine gun pointed the muzzle at the enemy machine gun in the distance, then pulled the trigger and started firing.

Due to the pulling force, the bullet chain hanging on the side of the machine gun jumped, and several bullet cases fell down, making a clanking sound when they hit the soil. As soon as the unique sound of the tearing machine sounded, the machine gun on the Dahua troop position immediately stopped moving. The bullet hit the spot where the machine gun had just fired, causing a cloud of white smoke to fill the area.

Soon, Dahua's defenders discovered a Tang Army machine gun position on their flank. Seven or eight soldiers tried to get close to this side to remove this threat.

They carried weapons and approached along the base of the courtyard wall, but were suppressed by the firepower of the assault rifle in the hands of the squad leader on the way.

The other party did not expect that the firepower of the Tang army could be so fierce, and retreated in embarrassment, leaving only two or three shot corpses on the way.

The battle in the distance continued. The rolling track in front of the Tang Army's No. 4 assault gun smashed a section of the courtyard wall, scaring the surrounding Dahua defenders into running away with their heads in their hands.

The Tang army that followed began to throw grenades at the other side of the courtyard wall. A series of explosions raised smoke that covered the sky, and the defense line of the Dahua defenders began to collapse.

 Some soldiers dropped their weapons and knelt down to surrender, while some soldiers started to flee into the factory with their weapons in hand. Then the fleeing defenders were knocked to the ground by the bullets coming from behind, and they lay down next to the factory.

 Other lucky Dahua soldiers ran around the corner and hid behind the factory building, but the battle on the side of the courtyard wall continued.

The remaining Dahua defenders who did not surrender or escape were still fighting. They relied on their incomplete positions and fired wildly at the No. 4 assault gun.

　　A bullet hit the armor of the assault gun, splashing a cloud of sparks. The Tang Army soldier following the assault gun seemed to be hit by the ricocheted bullet, and he turned over and fell to the ground.

The comrades behind him immediately stepped forward and dragged him to a relatively safe place. Only then did he see the ricochet hit the unlucky comrade's arm, making a **** hole.

"You're okay! I was just shot in the arm!" Seeing the comrades on the ground screaming, the comrade who rescued him shouted loudly.

Following his shout, the assault gun in front of them fired a shell, making a loud bang that made everyone temporarily unable to hear any sound.

The machine gunner following the tank lay down next to the ruins of a bunker, and then pointed the machine gun at the enemy position that was still resisting.

 The secondary shooter holds the ammunition chain and waits for the shooter to be ready to fire. The sound of the tearing machine sounded again, and the dense tracer bullets looked like laser beams against the gradually darkening sky, looking particularly dazzling.

"Over there! Over there!" The deputy shooter had a relatively good vision and saw Dahua soldiers trying to retreat. He pointed at the distance and loudly reminded his shooter.

The shooter adjusted the firing angle of the machine gun and directly knocked down the Dahua soldiers who jumped out of the trench bunker.

The battle was still going on. The Tang army that followed had already crossed the factory wall. They rushed into the factory, and fierce gunshots were heard inside.

 The Dahua troops had to abandon these useless abandoned factories, leaving behind some damaged machines and some ammunition stored here, and rout towards another factory in embarrassment.

Before they could escape into another factory, the No. 4 assault gun fired a new shell, which directly penetrated the wall of the factory and collapsed a section of the factory.

The Dahua army, who thought they had found a new bunker, were even more embarrassed. They exited the hiding factory in disgrace. As soon as they came out, they were knocked to the ground by the Tang army soldiers waiting outside.

Intensive gunfire continued. When the Tang army thought they had captured the factory, the Dahua troops organized a large-scale counterattack.

This time, it was the Dahua troops who began to attack, while the Tang army defended the factory that had become half a ruin.

The two sides fought fiercely for this unimportant place, and gunshots rang out throughout the night. In the middle of the night, the Tang army also carried out a covering artillery bombardment on the outside of the factory. The momentum was simply earth-shattering.

The offensive of the Dahua counterattack force became weak after the artillery bombardment, probably because they were worried that if they continued to increase troops here, they would be blocked by more intense artillery fire.

 Finally, when the next morning arrived, the factory was still under the control of the Tang State's 7th Infantry Army. They invaded the urban area of ​​Fengjiang City, and they fulfilled their promise.

 Although during the whole day of fighting, more than 1,000 Tang army soldiers were killed on the offensive road. But the Tang army's overwhelming offensive also completely made the Qin and Dahua armies realize that the enemy they faced was a powerful monster armed to the teeth with steel.
