Chapter 249 249 War makes people growOn the silent streets, rubble and bullet craters are all over the field of vision. The competition for Kaunia became very fierce as the station changed hands. Neither the Holy Demon Emperor nor the puppet empire was willing to accept this fact. They hoped that they could retake the station and stabilize their position.
However, after a day of intense fighting, both sides were exhausted. The puppet empire lost a full 13,000 soldiers near the station, and still could not regain the lost positions.
"The puppets are gathering in the vicinity!" Behind the rubble, a commander issued a telescope in his hand and said to his comrades: "There may be a fierce battle in a while."
"It doesn't matter, the reinforcements above have arrived, we are not afraid of them." His colleague glanced at the new weapon behind him and said triumphantly.
They really should have such confidence, after all, the replacement of heavy weapons in army equipment is not fast. What can be called a new weapon is definitely a very terrifying killing machine.
"Drive that guy over here! Deploy here! Wait if the puppet empire attacks! Fire here to suppress their main attack direction!" The officer who put down the telescope ordered loudly.
On the other side of the ruins, Alanhill's soldiers have taken the high ground, and they have established a machine gun position in a mage tower that is not completely collapsed, and there are erected two MG-42 machine guns .
The Defensive Array then stretched all the way to the front of the position, with about 100 soldiers deployed along the rubble, and supported by mortars, the entire position overlooked the direction of the enemy's attack.
After going through city battles, these soldiers have accumulated rich experience in urban street fighting. Now they deploy the Defensive Array, which is a typical urban street fighting position to deal with the puppet soldiers of the puppet empire. Counterattack is very effective.
Hearing the commander's order, the crew member over there gave a thumbs up, the tracked armored vehicle started, the tail section spewed a black smoke, and then began to move forward Move slowly.
While moving, several nearby soldiers helped to find a suitable position. In a place where most of the car body could be hidden and the firepower could be exerted, this mighty-looking armored vehicle stopped. down.
Its front is very crowded, because of the splicing angle of the steel plates and other mounted items, even the magic defense barrier cannot be arranged. Such a strange-looking guy just became quiet again, lying on his own position, waiting for the battle to break out.
A battle soon kicked off, and the soldiers of the puppet empire launched a sea charge without being prepared for artillery bombardment: because the artillery couldn't really beat Alanhill's artillery, these puppet empire's 130 mm The caliber artillery didn't fire much for a long time.
"Bah!" On the position, the first Mauser 98K's gunshots echoed abruptly, and then the gunshots gradually intensified as if they had heard a signal, breaking the calm nearby. Countless puppet soldiers began to advance along the street, and the densely packed sea of people became the best targets for machine guns.
This time, the puppet troops also used puppet tanks, as well as a rare giant puppet puppet.
The huge doll is about 3 meters high and wears heavier armor, which can resist the attacks of many light weapons. However, these dolls are often the target of bazookas in the hands of Alanhill soldiers, so their actual effect is not very good.
Without any preparations, the puppet empire's attack just started. After a volley of Alanhill mortars, the puppets under fire approached the Alanhill defender's position.
The crew members were ready for battle on the new Alanhill weapon that was ambushed on the side of the road and was ready for battle. They pointed their weapons in the direction of the puppet attack, two slender barrels aimed at the enemy's vast crowd.
ZSU-57-2 is a new type of self-propelled anti-aircraft artillery that Alanhill serves. The number of equipment is not large, but this anti-aircraft artillery is powerful and has a high rate of fire, and has temporarily become an anti-aircraft weapon for many troops.
It's a pity that, because Alanhill's air force is really strong, for a long time, Alanhill's anti-aircraft artillery unit could not find a target to kill. The Dragon Knight, who used to be somewhat afraid, is now reappearing on the battlefield less and less often.
Therefore, more and more troops use the self-propelled anti-aircraft guns issued to them as a kind of "large-caliber machine gun war chariot" against infantry. Anyway, the enemy does not have any decent anti-tank means. This self-propelled anti-aircraft gun can act as an armored vehicle most of the time.
"Fire!" After aiming at the target, the commander gave the order to fire, and the two 57mm caliber slender artillery began to spit out flames violently. Large-caliber artillery shells rampaged through the crowd, knocking countless puppets into parts.
The large-caliber artillery shell hitting the puppet tank can also have a penetrating effect. The two advancing puppet tanks were paralyzed on the road, and thick smoke covered the puppet soldiers behind.
After this violent strafing, the soldiers of the puppet empire rushed up like a tide and receded like a tide. Within one minute, almost 100 rounds of 57mm caliber artillery shells hit the crowd of puppet soldiers in a storm, and the damage caused can be imagined.
Alanhill's soldiers burst into cheers from the position, and they fought back the counterattack of the puppet soldiers at almost no cost.
Unfortunately, their cheers did not last for ten seconds before the puppet empire's retaliatory shelling began. A 130mm howitzer shell landed on the position held by Alanhill soldiers, followed by a second and third.
"Damn it! When did the puppet empire learn to fight like this?" Seeing that his position was covered with artillery fire, the Alanhill battalion commander who was in command of the battle turned around angrily and asked his deputy beside him. .
The puppet empire has always ordered artillery to attack before the battle, but at this time, it is often suppressed by Alanhill's artillery fire, which has no effect.
Later, the troops of the puppet empire simply stopped firing, so as not to signal to Alanhill that they were going to attack, and risk being counterattacked.
However, today, the puppet troops have learned to fire at Alanhill's position immediately after retreating, which can effectively kill and injure Alanhill's active forces still on the position.
"The more experienced they are, the smarter they are." Another officer looked at the dozens of shells that fell and said in admiration.
It's not just Alanhill that has progressed, the puppet empires are also learning war in war. The puppet soldier, who was originally stupid and stupid, has also summed up many useful skills in countless failures.
While these skills are not yet comparable to those mastered by real humans, they do improve.
"Whoo!" Just as everyone was shocked, Alanhill's artillery began to fight back. The larger-caliber 155mm howitzers, as well as the 203mm howitzers reinforced for street fighting troops, began to fire where the puppet imperial artillery might be.
Dozens of shells roared past Alanhill-controlled positions and landed in the far-flung block. The explosion instantly destroyed many buildings there, and with a deafening roar, another collapsed. Halfway through, the chimney-like magic tower collapsed in the sound of gunfire.
I don't know if it was really hit or frightened, and the shelling of the puppet empire stopped. Only Alanhill's shelling continued, as if tirelessly.
"From now on, after repelling the attack of the puppet empire, be careful to keep the soldiers hidden." The battalion commander ordered the officers behind him while climbing up the smoking Defensive Array. .
"Yes! I will write a report later and send it to the Army Headquarters... This kind of thing should be notified to the whole army immediately." The officer who followed behind the battalion commander nodded, Walking on the anti-slope of the ruins with one foot deep and one foot shallow, he bent down and agreed.
Before it was too late to retreat, the ZSU-57-2 self-propelled anti-aircraft gun that had just established its merits was hit by a shell and was scrapped in place. Three members of the crew were killed in action, and even 8 of the soldiers were killed in action, which became the total loss of Alanhill in this partial battle.
The sudden shelling made Alanhill's troops feel the brutality of the war and realize that the enemy they faced was not as easy to deal with as they thought.
"Om..." Before the shelling was over, the four Il-2 attack planes swept past the War Zone where they had just exchanged fire with bombs at a low altitude. As soon as the battle broke out, the Air Force dispatched its own aircraft, but unfortunately the response speed was not so timely.
In pursuit of the rout puppet, the Il-2 attack slaughtered, and the planes dropped bombs over the heads of the puppet Empire soldiers, blowing the rout puppet to the side.
Although the model is very old, these Il-2 attack aircraft are still very useful when attacking the ground. At least compared to jet fighters, they are durable and require ground equipment. very low.
"Let the troops advance 50 meters! Take control of the building over there! Set up a circular Defensive Array there! Check all the places! Don't let the puppet soldiers infiltrate!" The battalion commander counted the loss of the troops After that, he ordered with hatred.
After sorting out their weapons and equipment, a company set off first. The soldiers carrying weapons and ammunition passed by the bodies of fallen soldiers that were placed in a row, and saw their companions lying on the ground silently, the smiles on the faces of these soldiers had long been disappeared.
