Chapter 485 The Significance of the 486 WarThe 201st Armored Division also seemed to have entered a dead zone. Tony even a little bit nostalgic when he was blocked by refugees the other day as he looked at Bojost from his tank.
Now, he can't see any human beings alive. After advancing 30 kilometers, in addition to the bones, there are only occasional appearances, trying to sneak attack their demon dog troops.
Because the reconnaissance troop is very far ahead, the sneak attack is basically impossible. Most of the demon dogs will be directly destroyed by Alanhill's air force, and the remaining few will be in contact with the army troops. You can imagine how much waves they can make.
As the vanguard of the flanking assault on Bamyhir, Tony's 201st Armoured Division had used a pontoon bridge to cross the Franno River. They tried to surround Bojost from the flanks, but they reached the outskirts of Bojost without encountering any decent resistance.
The demonic forces seem to have retreated south after attacking the humans. They left a mess, swept away almost all food and supplies, and burned most of the town buildings.
The puppet empire was set on fire by Alanhill, here is the devil himself who set a fire to burn down all the once brilliant civilizations.
Beyond Bojost, in front of him, is in ruins, and the quietness makes people feel terrified. It just waited here quietly, as if waiting for someone to wake it up and save it again.
"I'm really fed up with this kind of silence..." Tony looked at the burning city not far away, and there was no black smoke coming out, and complained, "It's been three days. , I've never seen a living Bamyhir."
"At least we don't have to worry about people getting stuck on the road...but the roads here are really bad." The same goes for the gunner. Leaning out of the turret, looking at the quiet town in the distance, he said to Tony.
Since the loader has been removed from their tank and there are no electromechanical operators, chatting can only be narrowed down to three people.
Tony is the captain, he is fine, he can use Wireless Electronics to find other captains to make fun of. The rest of the gunner and the driver can only seize every opportunity to chat and speak.
Looking at the tragic situation along the way, Tony was not in the mood to joke. He hopes that he can liberate these places occupied by demons and save the civilians of Baamehir who are still alive.
It's just that he's used to seeing life and death and the damn war in front of him. He's not the TV salesman anymore, he's a Lieutenant Alanhill, a real tank commander.
"Forget it, let's wait for the feedback from the reconnaissance troop." No matter how he got used to it, he was unwilling to continue to look at the lifeless city in front of him, especially after he took a vacation and returned home. After arriving in Naru.
The current Naru is so prosperous that people can't recognize him, but he hasn't gone back in just two years. Tony, who was born in Naru and grew up in Naru, can't even recognize his own. hometown.
There are so many people there that it is crowded, the streets there are flat and straight, the cars are parked on the side of the road one by one, the high-rise buildings in the streets and alleys stand in great numbers, and the neon lights at night make it difficult to distinguish the day from the day Still night.
When Tony walked down the street like this, he realized that the war he was participating in was different from the previous wars.
The past wars are despairing, and the consumption of the future cannot be seen. It's just a contest of desires between lords and lords, emperors and emperors.
But the war he is participating in is a war of freedom to defend human civilization, a meaningful war, and a war that must be fought to the end.
Normally listening to those preachers talk about this, Tony didn't understand what it meant. But after comparing with his own eyes, Tony understands: his battle is not meaningless, he is doing the right thing, he is doing something that a man must do!
An AC-130 air gunboat hovers in the distance, seemingly looking for a target. The absence of living people in the city does not mean that there are no demonic troops stationed there.
In order to cover their main force retreating south, the demons still left some cannon fodder to guard the city and the only way to block Alanhill's troops.
The city in front of me was not completely burnt down, and the reason was that the demons hoped to use the ruins and street battles to hold back Alanhill's army's southward footsteps.
After all, if the two sides really compete for marching speed, the devil has no chance of winning.
"sou!" A whistling passed overhead, and Tony subconsciously shrank his neck. The gunner's reaction was the same, and then both looked involuntarily into the sky in the distance.
That's a 155mm howitzer shell! Two experienced people can identify this classic weapon by listening to the sound.
The M109 self-propelled howitzer is the backbone of support firepower accompanying tank operations, and it is also the most equipped self-propelled howitzer model of Alanhill.
The shell roared past the armour, swept across the clearing, and crashed headlong into the silent city.
Then, the next second, a loud explosion resounded through the empty city. Inside the dilapidated city wall, a black smoke rushed to the sky, expanding and rolling in all directions.
"I'm much more comfortable now." Finally hearing the familiar sound of explosions, the gunner's mood seemed to have improved a lot all of a sudden.
Tony also felt that the familiar battlefield was back again, and took up the telescope to see where the shell fell.
This bombardment was a mere warning, an aimless attack without correction or direction.
It's just to tell the enemy that we're here, get out and surrender, or continue to hunker down and wait to die!
So after this lonely shell fell, there was no subsequent shelling to follow.
"I didn't see a demon army garrisoned on the city wall... It's the same as the city before! They have learned to be smart and know that standing on the city wall is no different from suicide." Tony is holding a telescope , while observing and complaining.
At the same time as he complained, the AC-130 air gunboat hovering like a vulture in the sky opened fire, and the dense ammunition poured down. For a time, Berjost became lively again, No more silence.
A few minutes later, Tony's earphone sounded an order from the battalion commander: "Stand on standby! Rest for two hours! Let the infantry go up... Demon troops have been found in the city, and there are still quite a few!"
