Age of Rebirth

After Shang Jinzhu fired a rocket, he immediately put away the bazooka, took the medicine hand, and immediately moved to another pit, set up the bazooka steadily, and aimed at the target. Another British tank was covered in black smoke. Smoke and flames.

Just after Shang Jinzhu fired, when all the British tanks stopped, another bazooka group fired at the same time, and several British tanks were hit. However, Shang Jinzhu also exposed his position and was not caught. When the British tank hit, a burst of flames spewed out from the gun barrel, "Boom boom boom!" A few low-pitched cannons exploded at Shang Jinzhu's position.

Yaoshou was shaken so that his head was buzzing. When he woke up, he found his platoon leader lying in the pit covered in blood. Yaoshou crawled over. Shang Jinzhu was already unconscious. , disappeared without a trace, I don't know how many wounds I have on my body, and I still tightly hold the blasted rocket launcher in my hand.

Adams was startled by the sound of several huge explosions, and hurriedly raised his binoculars. In the camera, the tanks participating in the first wave of attack ignited raging fires, and the explosives burned the invulnerable steel The fortress exploded into balls of fire, which were extremely dazzling in the night.

Adams sighed, and murmured in an inaudible voice: "It's finally started!" Then, he closed his eyes and waited quietly for the cannon that fell from the sky to send him to heaven. [

However, after a few minutes, nothing happened. The sound of guns and shells on the battlefield was still intense. Adams could hear that none of them was the sound of heavy artillery shelling. He was puzzled and asked several senior staff officers around him, "You guys?" Can anyone tell me what is going on here? Why didn't the troops of the Independent Division use artillery, and how did our tanks get destroyed?"

No one could answer it, and Adams himself was even more confused.The commander of Xiduo's independent division puts heavy artillery aside, what exactly does he want to do?I will never be able to figure out the thoughts of the insidious and cunning Chinese.

The command post of the Tenth Brigade of the Sulu Mobile Corps.The brigade commander, Major General Wang Yiwu, put down the phone with an ugly face, and said to the chief of staff: "Tell me, what kind of battle is this called? The British tanks came up, and most of the bazooka squads of our companies had casualties. I received two A phone call from the head of the regiment. Shang Jinzhu, the gun platoon leader of the third company of the first battalion, lost a leg and is now undergoing first aid! Whether he can survive or not is up for debate!"

After finishing speaking, like a trapped animal, he played a few turns in the command post, and then said: "No, I have to ask the division commander, our artillery. Is it okay to fight tanks instead of British and Indian infantry? I can't let my soldiers take their lives to exchange for a few British tanks, right?"

The Chief of Staff smiled wryly and shook his head.Said: "Brigade Commander, don't worry about it. I just saw the division commander's order. The two artillery brigades, as well as the heavy artillery regiment of our brigade, have been transferred to the direction of East India. No, the order is in my hands." here!"

Wang Yiwu snatched the order, and after reading it, he patted his forehead and said in distress: "What is the commander doing? Transferring the two artillery brigades does not count. I also transferred my heavy artillery regiment. Could it be that you rely on these guys to deal with the tens of thousands of British and Indian soldiers on the opposite side? This battle is really boring!"

Then, he said to the chief of staff: "Order the forward troops. Without my order, don't attack, just stick to the position. The regiment suffered heavy casualties, and the regiment leader came to me to explain!"

Along with the tanks of the British and Indian Army, they all became a pile of burning scrap iron. The soldiers of the British and Indian Army who lost their cover were beaten up and down by a burst of mortars and heavy machine guns. Half an hour later, the soldiers who attacked Xiduo The British and Indian soldiers left behind thousands of corpses and dozens of burning tanks and had to retreat.

The soldiers of the British and Indian Army did not have the fierceness from the bottom of their hearts like the Japanese soldiers. Fighting such battles, especially at night, was not what they were good at. The mortars that kept screaming and falling, drew dark red paths in the night, and exploded into deathly puffs and flames.

Even if you have the courage, the companions around you will become fragmented corpses with the exploding smoke, screaming, or bloody men covered in holes, and their lives will disappear before your eyes. The confidence of the soldiers was shaken, and the aggressiveness that had been built up at the beginning disappeared long ago after losing the cover of tanks and artillery fire.

Seeing the soldiers retreating like a tide, Adams went crazy. He kept ordering the troops, attacking or attacking, combining the disabled troops, and then attacking again. He wanted to fill the land of Sido with the corpses of his soldiers. With blood, the soldiers of the Independent Division were drowned, and the bloody battle lasted all night, and the sound of guns and guns rang all night.

The British and Indian troops fought very hard. In contrast, the five brigades of the Sulu Mobile Corps of the Independent Division fought very easily. After destroying all the tanks of the British and Indian troops, the blocking battle became easier. With the armored assault force, it became very easy to repel every attack of the British and Indian troops.

Because of the limited terrain conditions of Xiduo, and in addition, it is only necessary to defend the eastern part of the Hukang River Valley. Each brigade can only put one regiment's troops on the defensive position at a time. Each brigade has four regiments, and they take turns to fight. After an attack was repulsed, they took a rest and took a rest. The guns and guns were rumbling here. Behind Xiduo, the troops who had been rotated out, the soldiers finished their meals and went to sleep when they should. They were not affected by the battle at all.

At three o'clock in the morning that night, Tang Qiuli got up after a good night's sleep, and got up refreshed. He did some activities around him, and walked out of the house. Hey, floating in the night, on the streets of Xiduo, there are groups of soldiers running past from time to time, but there is no tense atmosphere at all.

Hearing the fierce gunfire in the east of Xiduo, watching the flames that lit up half of the sky, and the huge explosion echoing in the night sky, Tang Qiuli shook his head involuntarily, thinking to himself, "When will Alexander, It has become so crazy, what stimulated him to lose his mind? It has been almost ten hours since the British and Indian troops started attacking at around [-] o'clock yesterday evening, and the attack has not stopped."

For Alexander, this was an attack that had no chance of winning. His own troops, with five brigades of nearly [-] people, were defending against danger, and they were waiting for work at leisure. They had sufficient medicine and supplies, and they just kept fighting For three days and nights, the troops did not have to worry about the lack of medicines, and Le Yiqin's transport plane troops could carry out aerial supplies at any time.

And what capital does Alexander have?Troops retreating after a big defeat, marching long distances, soldiers who have been repeatedly attacked by air, their physical strength and morale have dropped to the lowest point, and they have lost all their artillery and tanks. What is the point of attacking Xiduo like this?Could it be that he couldn't see that his troops in Xiduo were just to block his retreat, so how could he give up lightly? Tang Qiuli couldn't help but feel unworthy of Alexander's actions.

Hearing the sound of guns and guns, Tang Qiuli's heart began to heat up. He turned his head and said to Shanhu who was following him closely, "Huzi, take a few special guards, how about we go to the frontier? Also go to the Tenth Brigade Wang Yiwu There! We fought almost all night, and that guy doesn't know what he's doing?"

Shanhu grinned happily and said, "Xiaoqiu, my heart is itching again? How about we go directly to the front line? Take part in the battle. If you are lucky, you can fight for a while. How enjoyable it is!" [

Tang Qiuli glanced at Shanhu vigilantly, and said, "Huzi, don't tempt me. As soon as I leave, you will go to Brother Qiusheng to inform me, right? You, when did you learn Are you cunning?"

Shan Hu rolled his big eyes, assuming you were smart, and the two were bickering over there. Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe came over and said, "Master, I received a telegram from Deputy Commander Tang, directly under the [-]th Brigade and the [-]th Brigade of the Corps. The two leading regiments of the brigade have already arrived at Xiduo, and the follow-up troops will arrive at their current position at about [-]:[-] this morning."

Tang Qiuli said: "You came here very quickly. Xiao Jinshan and Fang Yuanshan heard that Xiduo was playing lively. These two people may be in a hurry. What plans does Deputy Commander Tang have?"

Zhao Yuhe replied: "Deputy Commander Tang said in his telegram that he planned to attack the British and Indian troops first with a sudden movement at around [-]:[-] a.m. with the two leading regiments of the Ninth and Tenth Brigades. Its rear wing, in order to reduce the pressure of Xiduo's blocking battle, and at the same time, oppress Alexander, and ask for help from the Indian army as soon as possible."

Tang Qiuli shook his head, and said affirmatively: "This is not what Brother Qiusheng himself meant, it must be Xiao Jinshan and Fang Yuanshan. Seeing that Xiduo was fighting fiercely, and their hands were itchy, they would have such an arrangement if they were soft and hard, Brother Qiusheng. Otherwise, with Brother Qiu Sheng's stable personality and style, he is directly under the main force of the Corps, and he will never launch any attack before it arrives, and he also knows that Xiduo has no pressure."

It really made Tang Qiuli guess. Just less than ten kilometers away from the Xiduo battlefield, Xiao Jinshan looked in the direction of Xiduo while talking with Fang Yuanshan, the commander of the [-]th Brigade on the other side of the Hukang River Valley.

"I'm talking about Lao Fang. I don't know if the battle plan we submitted to the newspaper was approved by Deputy Commander Tang. Xiduo was fighting in full swing, and the two of us just watched helplessly, panicking when we had nothing to do. There are nearly 9000 people in our two reinforcement regiments." , taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the British and Indian soldiers, and stabbing them in the back, tell me, the effect is not better than fighting in Sido for half a day?"

In a jungle on the other side of the Hukang River Valley, Fang Yuanshan drank water and said slowly: "Old Xiao, don't be too optimistic. Deputy Commander Tang and Commander Command have different styles of commanding and fighting. Please be safe. Our battle plan is different. It will definitely be approved, just wait and see, even if it is a fight, I guess I will have to wait until the troops behind arrive."

Xiao Jinshan was in a hurry and said, "When they catch up, the cucumber dishes will be cold." Just as he was speaking, the sound of gunfire from Xiduo's direction suddenly weakened and gradually subsided.
