Rise of the Overlord

Chapter 300 Bloody Battle in New Market Town
The first attack on Xinji Town was the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment belonging to the 48th Division of the Imperial Guards of the Ice Lions. The first round of the attack of this mechanized infantry regiment had just begun, and it was attacked by the Temporary Independent Regiment of the [-]th Division of the Great Qin Army. Head on.

The head of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment of the Ice Lions Imperial Guard had just issued an order for his own artillery to suppress the enemy's forward positions. Ten 59mm self-propelled howitzers launched a storm.

In the end, the two special operations teams of the guard company of the Independent Regiment blew up seven 122mm self-propelled howitzers at the cost of more than half of the loss, making the remaining artillery of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment unable to suppress the firepower of the independent regiment's forward positions at all, forcing The first wave of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment's offensive ended dismal.

The 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment lost 21 Silver Lion medium tanks, 122 armored vehicles, and more than 59 officers and soldiers in the first wave of attack, and nine 59mm self-propelled howitzers were also blown up. The head of the [-]th Mechanized Infantry Regiment was shocked, but also very distressed. Since the [-]th Mechanized Infantry Regiment entered the Great Qin Kingdom, it has never suffered such a big loss.

The head of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment had to report the situation to the brigade headquarters of the 20th Brigade of the Ice Lion National Guards and the division headquarters of the Seventh Division of the Ice Lion National Guards, and requested the Ice Lion National Air Force to report the situation to the new The Daqin Army in the market town started bombing.

The 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment is part of the 20th Brigade of the Seventh Division in the Imperial Guard of the Ice Lion Kingdom. Each division has three main brigades, and each brigade has three main brigades Three main groups.

At noon on December [-]th, eight bombers of the Ice Lion Air Force, escorted by six fighter jets, flew over Xinji Town, preparing to bomb the Daqin Army stationed in Xinji Town.

The fighter jets and bombers equipped by the Ice Lion Air Force are piston-type propeller aircraft. They are all designed and produced by the Ice Lion Country. The overall performance is very good. The speed of this fighter is 25 kilometers per hour. It is equipped with a 12.7mm Cannon and two 430mm machine guns, this bomber has a speed of 12.7 kilometers per hour, a bomb load of two tons, and is equipped with four [-]mm machine guns.

However, the six fighter jets and eight bombers of the Ice Lion Air Force had just flown over Xinji Town when they encountered intensive anti-aircraft fire, including individual air defense missiles that the pilots of the Ice Lion Air Force had never seen before. In just a few minutes, all fourteen Ice Lion Air Force fighter planes were shot down, and even eight of the bombers did not have time to drop aerial bombs on the ground.

After six fighter jets and eight bombers of the Ice Lion Air Force were shot down, a deputy commander of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment walked up to the head of the 95th Mechanized Infantry Regiment holding a Type 59 automatic rifle. Beside him, "Regimental Commander, we seem to have encountered the most elite troops in the Great Qin Kingdom. The rifle equipped by the enemy soldiers is very advanced, and it turned out to be an automatic rifle!"

The 95-type automatic rifle in the hands of the deputy head was obtained from the sacrificed soldiers of the independent regiment guard company. The three special operations teams of the guard company launched two attacks on the 59mm self-propelled howitzer of the 122th Mechanized Infantry Regiment. More than 20 officers and soldiers were sacrificed. In addition to the Type 95 automatic rifle, the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment also captured a dozen Type 92 pistols and several 60mm mortars.

Only the Type 88 sniper rifles and individual anti-tank missiles equipped by the special operations team of the Guard Company of the Independent Regiment have not fallen into the hands of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment for the time being.

The head of the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment took the Type 95 automatic rifle over, studied it a little, and his face suddenly became a little dignified, "Why does the Great Qin State have such an advanced automatic rifle? We must report this situation to the superior immediately." Make a report!"

It easily repelled the first wave of the Ice Lion Army's attack and shot down more than a dozen fighter planes of the Ice Lion Air Force. This boosted the morale of the officers and soldiers of the 48th Division's temporary independent regiment. The faces of the group leaders Sun Guodong and He Zhihong did not reveal any relaxed look.

Su Yi said to Sun Guodong and He Zhihong in a deep voice: "This group of enemies should only be the vanguard. Although our independent regiment has suffered a lot from this vanguard, more and more Ice Lions will arrive soon. Outside the town, it is time to test our independent regiment. The most important thing now is that our independent regiment has no effective means to deal with the enemy's large-caliber artillery, and only relies on a few special operations teams from the guard company. After the army arrives, it will be very difficult to pose any threat to the large-caliber artillery of the Ice Lion Kingdom."

Sun Guodong said with a wry smile: "We have anticipated this situation before, and we can only rely on the dug out air-raid shelters to reduce the losses caused by the large-caliber artillery of the Ice Lion Kingdom to our independent regiment, but we have to do a good job in the whole Preparations for Xinji Town to be blown into ruins by the large-caliber artillery of the Ice Lion Kingdom."

He Zhihong followed Shen Sheng and said: "It's also thanks to the regiment leader who brought so many weapons and equipment, otherwise the enemy's vanguard should have already invaded Xinji Town. Anyway, those of us who stayed in Xinji Town are ready to sacrifice , if you can kill one more lion clansman, kill one more lion clansman."

Su Yi has no solution to the difficulties faced by the 48th Division temporarily forming an independent regiment. The most direct way to deal with the large-caliber artillery of the Ice Lion Army is to launch suppressive bombardment with larger-caliber artillery. Unfortunately, the interstellar The height of the door is two meters, and the width is only one meter. Su Yi cannot transport large-caliber artillery from the world of the Tang Empire or the Han Kingdom.

Su Yi shook his head helplessly and said: "Anyway, it's already like this, so we can only take one step at a time and let each company prepare for the next wave of attacks from the Ice Lion Army."

On the night of December [-]th, the Great Qin Army stationed in the east and west of the Yueyang City area also abandoned their positions and hurriedly withdrew to Yueyang City. This also made the periphery of the Yueyang City area, except for the south , have all fallen into the hands of the Ice Lion Army.

Early this morning, Marshal Kayano, the commander-in-chief of the Ice Lion Army's attack on Yueyang City, issued an order to march into the urban area of ​​Yueyang City. Hundreds of thousands of Ice Lion Army troops came from east, west, and north in a menacing manner. He threw himself down to Yueyang City.

When Marshal Kayano learned that the vanguard of the northern attack was blocked by the elite troops of the Daqin Army in Xinji Town, and even destroyed six fighter jets and eight bombers of the Ice Lion Air Force, he immediately ordered the Ice Lions to ban them. The Seventh Division of the Guards had to clear the north road to Yueyang City before [-]:[-] p.m. on December [-]th. The Seventh Division provided air support.

For a small town with only a few hundred households, the Seventh Division of the Ice Lion Guards did not go all out at the beginning, but mobilized the 20th Mechanized Infantry Regiment belonging to the 58th Brigade, and Together with the 59th Mechanized Infantry Regiment, they launched an attack on Xinji Town again.

The second wave of the Ice Lion Army's attack on Xinji Town, in addition to sending two mechanized infantry regiments and more than 155 fighters, the Seventh Division of the Ice Lion National Guard also dispatched a team with eight [-]mm self-propelled howitzers. Heavy Artillery Battalion, providing stronger fire support for the two mechanized infantry regiments.

Under the bombardment of more than a dozen 122mm self-propelled howitzers and eight 155mm self-propelled howitzers from two mechanized infantry regiments, the entire Xinji Town was almost reduced to ruins. When it was the icing on the cake, it was once again dazzled by the anti-aircraft firepower of the 48th Division of the Great Qin Army temporarily organized as an independent regiment. Not only did it fail to achieve any results, but it was quickly shot down more than 30 fighters, leaving more than 20 remaining. The fighter plane had to flee the sky over Xinji Town in a hurry.

Although the ice lion country's air force did not play a role, the two mechanized infantry regiments of the 20th brigade of the ice lion country army, still under the cover of artillery, launched a fierce attack on Xinji Town, and soon broke through the north of Xinji Town. In the forward position, they broke into the inside of Xinji Town and started the most brutal street fighting with the temporary independent regiment of the 48th Division.

"Boom—" A Silver Lion medium tank of the Ice Lion Army was hit by an individual anti-tank missile, detonating dozens of shells inside the tank, and even the turret of the Silver Lion medium tank was blown away. Now, more than 20 Ice Lion army soldiers who followed this silver lion medium tank became the funeral objects of this silver lion medium tank, and none of them survived.

Although the temporary independent regiment under Su Yi's command is not superior to the two mechanized infantry regiments of the 20th Brigade of the Ice Lion Army, even if more than 3000 seriously wounded are subtracted, the strength of the temporary independent regiment will be reduced. It is still at a great disadvantage, but because Su Yi moved a large number of advanced weapons from the world of the Han Kingdom, it brought very heavy casualties to the two mechanized infantry regiments of the Ice Lion Army who invaded Xinji Town , especially the tanks and armored vehicles that the two mechanized infantry regiments entered Xinji Town, were quickly lost.

The commander of the 20th Division of the Imperial Guards of the Ice Lions had no choice but to send the remaining 60th Mechanized Infantry Regiment of the 20th Brigade and the troops directly under the [-]th Brigade Headquarters to the battle in Xinji Town as soon as they saw the battle in Xinji Town. .

The 20th Brigade of the Ice Lion National Guard has more than 9000 people. When the 20th Brigade was fully deployed on the battlefield in Xinji Town, the pressure on Su Yi's temporary independent regiment suddenly doubled. At [-] o'clock in the afternoon on the [-]th, there was only one hour left before Marshal Kayano gave the Seventh Division of the Praetorian Guards to capture Xinji Town. The battle in Xinji Town was still very stalemate. There is no way to completely occupy the new market town within the stipulated time.

The commander of the 40th Division of the Ice Lion National Guard is named Bode. He is not yet [-] years old this year. The rank of the Imperial Guard of the Lion Kingdom is only a major general, and Bode can be said to be the leader of the young and strong faction in the Ice Lion Kingdom military.

The Seventh Division of the Imperial Guard Army under Bode's command has made great achievements since the war between the Ice Lion Kingdom and the Great Qin Kingdom. Once, the Seventh Division of the Imperial Guard Army defeated the Great Qin Dynasty in a single battle. The three armies of the country laid the foundation for the ice lion country's army to win this battle.

However, after entering the Great Qin Kingdom, the Seventh Division of the Imperial Guard Army, which had been invincible and invincible all the way, encountered a big nail in Xinji Town, a small town with only a few hundred households.

Bode asked Im, the deputy commander of the Seventh Division of the Imperial Guard with a gloomy face: "How long will it take for the 20th Brigade to wipe out the remaining enemies in Xinji Town? Now, the last time given by Marshal Cayano is only left. It's been an hour!"

The deputy division commander Im said with a wry smile: "The Daqin Army defending Xinji Town is very tenacious. It can be said that our seventh division has never seen it since entering the Daqin Kingdom. Many seriously wounded soldiers in this Daqin Army even They adopted the method of killing each other and launched an attack on the officers and soldiers of the 20th Brigade, and this Great Qin Army was also equipped with many advanced weapons, especially a linear artillery shell launcher that can destroy tanks, which caused heavy losses to the armored troops of the 20th Brigade."

The division commander Bode frowned: "A linear shell launcher? What is that?"

In fact, the linear shell launcher mentioned by the deputy division commander Im is an individual anti-tank missile. The temporary independent regiment under Su Yi relies on a large number of individual anti-tank missiles to make the tanks of the 20th Brigade of the Ice Lion National Guard After entering Xinji Town with the armored vehicles, they couldn't play much role at all, and were destroyed one after another.

The deputy division commander Im shook his head and said: "I have never seen this kind of weapon before. One person can carry this linear shell launcher and fire armor-piercing shells at tanks or armored vehicles. It may be a new type developed by the Great Qin State. Anti-tank weapons."

Teacher Bode pondered for a while and asked again: "What does the 20th Brigade say? Can it completely occupy this small town before four o'clock in the afternoon?"

The deputy commander, Im, said with a sigh: "Sandro, the brigade commander of the 20th Brigade, hopes to let the 20th Brigade withdraw from Xinji Town for rest. Sandro made it clear that it is impossible to wipe out the Daqin defenders in Xinji Town at [-] pm."

After a pause, deputy commander Im continued: "Master, I think it is better to let the 20th brigade withdraw from Xinji Town first. Now the 20th brigade is already injured. If you continue to fight, the 20th brigade will have to recover its strength." It will take a long time."

Commander Bode nodded slightly: "Then let the 20th Brigade withdraw from Xinji Town first, let the 19th Brigade prepare to take over the 20th Brigade, and eliminate the remaining enemies in Xinji Town as soon as possible, and report the situation encountered by the 20th Brigade to Marshal Kayano in detail .”

The Seventh Division of the Imperial Guard of the Ice Lion Kingdom has three mechanized infantry brigades under its jurisdiction, namely the 19th, 20th and 21st Brigade of the Imperial Guard. Each mechanized infantry brigade has more than 9000 people, and the seventh division is directly under the There are about [-] troops.
