Chapter 1549: 1550 The **** battle east of Benn
Chapter 1549 The **** battle east of Benn in 1550
“Bang!” A flare exploded in the sky, illuminating a nearby position that was already full of craters. Under the cold-toned light, a paratrooper of the Tang Army aimed his rifle grenade at the location where the illumination bomb flew.
He aimed very calmly, and the place full of dwarf soldiers was blown up by a rifle grenade.
Before the dwarf machine gunner had time to place his weapon, he was hit by shrapnel and fell on the path forward.
The positions of both sides were too close, and the dwarves did not expect that the Tang paratroopers would dare to put them in such a close position before they started to fight back, and they fired so fiercely.
As if touching the flaming plastic, the vanguard of the dwarf army melted away. Hundreds of soldiers were killed by the Tang army before they could figure out what was going on.
Several Black Hawk helicopters that came from nowhere poured their rockets on the dwarf troops. Explosions were heard one after another. Even some dwarf tanks were directly hit by rockets and turned into wreckage.
Immediately afterwards, the dwarves had to allocate part of their troops to cover their flanks in the south: the Tang Dynasty's Marine Corps, which occupied position 6, mobilized some troops to go north, which seriously threatened the flanks of the 1st Army of the Ice Empire.
At about 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, when the 2nd Army on the west side was already trapped in a tight encirclement and had to fight for its own survival, the 1st Armored Division of the Dwarf 1st Army began a real attack.
A Type 10 tank staggered over a crater, drove past the burning wreckage of a friendly tank, and drove towards the Tang Army's position.
In the trench, a Tang Army paratrooper inserted the rocket into the front end of the launcher, and then pulled the safety on the warhead. Putting the prepared rocket launcher on his shoulder, the soldier loudly reminded his comrades who were firing: "Rockets!"
"Boom!" A huge explosion sounded, and in the thick smoke, the figure of the Type 10 tank gradually became clear. It continued to drive forward for about ten meters before stopping, and then it became paralyzed motionless. In situ.
A rain of bullets hit around the position where the Tang Army's anti-tank fighters were hiding. They discovered the enemy and desperately hoped to kill the guy who had just destroyed their tank.
“Hoo!” The airflow from the rear blew up the dust behind him, and with a bright fire, the rocket rushed straight towards the majestic-looking Type 10 tank.
Everyone subconsciously shrank their necks. The paratrooper stood up, took aim at the approaching tank in the distance, and pulled the trigger.
“I X!” The soil splashed by the dense bullets fell down and hit the helmet with a dull sound. Some dirt rolled in along the collar, causing the Tang Army soldiers who were loading rockets to curse.
"Fifty meters! They are about to throw grenades!" the platoon leader not far away reminded his soldiers, then picked up his assault rifle and fired wildly into the distance.
"Boom!" As expected, some dwarves threw grenades eagerly, but due to the distance, these grenades exploded in front of the Tang army's position and did not cause many casualties.
It's just that the explosion drove back the Tang Army soldiers who were shooting, and the dwarf offensive force finally found the opportunity to make a big leap forward. "For the Empire!" A dwarf stood up with a rifle equipped with a bayonet and loudly encouraged his companions. There is also a medal hanging on his chest, which is proof that he participated in the war against the Yangmu Empire.
"Long live His Majesty the Emperor!" A group of dwarf soldiers shouted. They clamored to get up from the ground, and then took heavy steps and rushed towards the Tang Army's trenches that were close at hand.
“Thud, tug, tug!” The machine guns of the Tang Army ambushed on the flanks suddenly roared, and a row of tracer bullets instantly knocked down scores of dwarf soldiers. These soldiers were cut down by sickles like ears of wheat in a wheat field, and twenty or thirty of them were killed in just an instant.
“Side! Side!” The attacking dwarves discovered the deadly machine gun on the side and loudly reminded their comrades to pay attention. A bullet struck, interrupting his shouting. He clutched his chest and fell down, but the surrounding dwarf soldiers had already discovered the hidden Tang Army machine gun team at his reminder.
"Hurrah!" While shouting, some dwarves changed the direction of the attack. They looked for temporary bunkers, pulled grenades from their bodies, and threw them near the Tang Army's machine gun position.
“Boom!” A grenade exploded in front of the machine gun, and the mud stirred up caused the two Tang Army machine gunners to narrow their eyes.
“Boom!” The second grenade exploded, almost knocking over the two machine gunners. Their bodies were covered with flying soil, as if they were about to be buried.
"Boom!" The third grenade exploded in their trench, and two Tang Army machine gunners were penetrated by the incoming shrapnel. Blood and torn cloth were flying everywhere, and the machine gun lost its balance and fell to the side.
Seeing that an exposed machine gun position was taken out by themselves, the dwarf soldiers who dropped the bombs let out bursts of cheers. They get up from the ground, keep moving forward, and then are knocked down by bullets coming from the front...
The Tang Army's position is still rock solid, and the attack of the Ice Empire's 1st Armored Division still failed to open up the situation. As one tank after another was destroyed, the first attack seemed to have reached a stalemate.
The Tang army has never encountered an opponent who was unwilling to give up despite such a huge sacrifice, and the dwarves were also shocked by the unrelenting fighting will of the Tang paratroopers.
Both sides seemed to be angry. After Xiang Ziyu saw the news that 17 people in his battalion were killed, instead of ordering to shrink the position, Xiang Ziyu personally led his men to launch a local counterattack.
The dwarves put in 20 new tanks, ran over the corpses of friendly troops, drove past the wreckage of previously destroyed tanks, and launched another charge.
The battle between the two sides lasted until about 0:40 before they stopped fighting: a battalion on the Tang Army's side that held its position lost about 30 people and consumed a lot of ammunition; almost an armored battalion and an infantry regiment on the Dwarf side had to withdraw. out of battle.
What stopped the two sides from continuing the **** battle was the roaring of 50 H-6 bombers from the Datang Empire Air Force. These planes dropped bombs behind the Dwarves, bombarding the unfolding follow-up forces of the 1st Army of the Ice Empire.
The dozens of tons of bombs calmed down the dwarves. The precision-guided munitions dropped by the intruder attack planes that followed caused the dwarves to lose a lot of heavy weapons and equipment. They had to pause the attack and think about what they were going to hit. when.
