Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

The negotiation finally broke down. When Xiao Letian turned around and jumped back into the trench, although he looked relaxed on the surface, his heart was filled with worry.

Would he really be able to withstand the attacks from the Austrian Army behind him? Even if they were afraid of Viscount Ah Lan's life and did not use artillery, how could they defend against an enemy that was ten times stronger than normal?

Maybe the ordinary soldiers could not feel Xiao Letian's worry, but the officers of the New Army who had followed him for a long time could guess it. Xiao Hexin and Sima Yun saw an opportunity and blocked Xiao Letian's path and held a small talk with him.

"Since the lord has made up his mind, then there is no need to hesitate. It's not like we don't have a chance. Before the expedition, we brought three times the amount of ammunition, twice the amount of grenades, and a lot of bulk explosives … "We have plenty of supplies, and with the intensity, we can last for at least five to six more hours …" Xiao Hexin encouraged them with great effort.

However, Sima Yun was more cautious when he thought about it, "We do not need to worry about the ammunition, but we do not have enough troops.

At this time, the King Yi who had been silent all this time also spoke up, "If we don't have enough troops, we can shrink the defense line. Don't we have three trenches, this level of troops to guard the outermost trenches is definitely not enough. Let's retreat and push all of our forces into the innermost trenches."

"That's right, as long as the enemy doesn't use cannons, we can defend them. "My lord, you see, we are hiding in the third trench, and the two trenches outside have become natural obstacles, so the enemy's cavalry cannot break through them. All the soldiers will have to dismount and fight inside, and at that time, we will encounter a group of infantry soldiers …"

While they were talking, Xiao Letian's foster son, Bing Tai, and his son-in-law Yepingtai also walked over. The two of them held onto the handle of the Katana, there was no fear in their eyes, there was only desire for battle and slaughter.

"Master Father, we heard your conversation in front of the formation just now. We only wanted to speak up on behalf of all the warriors of the Foreign Legion to express our stance to Master Father … Our Foreign Legion only has soldiers who die in battle, no escaping soldiers, if you want to fight, then fight, no need to hesitate! "

Xiao Letian was now incomparably gratified. Since ancient times, it had always been a situation where one cannot bear to see the truth, and the brotherly brothers' encouragement caused his heart to be filled with courage. At this time, he once again cast a questioning gaze at Jonas and Lei Ao.

Jonas didn't need to say anything to know what Xiao Letian meant. He smiled and said to the people inside the trench: "Prime Minister, this is a battle of life and death for our Prussian Kingdom. Do you think our morale needs any encouragement?"

Xiao Letian followed his gaze and looked, and immediately his heart relaxed. He saw that not a single Prussian soldiers was idle, everyone was anxiously preparing for battle.

The leather magazine on Si Diwen's body had long been emptied. He took out shiny bullets from the ammunition box, and carefully checked them before pressing them into the magazine. His hands were so gentle as if he was caressing his lover's hands.

There was also Dan Nier, beside him laid many hand grenades, the release mechanism had already been checked, the ropes were neatly tidied up, and the young man's face was abnormally calm.

Looking at Grant, as the steadier one among the three, he had already checked all the equipment and was now pulling out a piece of dried meat to chew on, saving his energy for the upcoming battle.

Right now, the trenches were abnormally quiet. The soldiers who had been massacring the entire morning had now lost their zeal and become abnormally calm. Even the wounded soldiers rarely cried out in pain. They just quietly rested in the trenches, accumulating their stamina.

King Yi couldn't help but twitch his nose, "Good boy, I smell the scent of the Veterans of the Hundred Wars. I have experienced countless great battles, and only the Veterans of the Hundred Wars who have walked out from the mountains of corpses and the seas of blood have this kind of calmness. "If we can bring these good soldiers back home …"

He also knew that this kind of thinking was extremely unbelievable. In this era, the Europeans were the higher races on Earth, and their pride was unimaginable to the Asian. Hence, he decided not to open his mouth and try to recruit them.

Xiao Letian shook his head as if he was trying to shake off all distracting thoughts, clapped his hands and said loudly, "Do it! What's the point of thinking so much? People die like birds in the sky, and if one didn't die after tens of thousands of years, how many would live past a hundred years? If they were afraid of dying, then they wouldn't die. It would be better for everyone to just be a bastard … "Hahaha, let's gather! Let's gather at the last trench. Even if we die, we die together …"

"Fight!" Fight! "Fight …" All of special mix camp's soldiers only had one voice, they began to gather under the Blood Red Army's banner. At this time, waves of bugle calls and dense footsteps came from the Prussian army's position outside the trench. The final battle had finally arrived.

Any soldiers who could fight had put Mauser on the ground and were vigilantly watching the people outside. However, this time, the situation was not as tense as it had been in the beginning of the war. Everyone looked at the enemy with a heavy expression, waiting for the order to shoot from their superior.

Xiao Letian stood at the high point in the open air command post, holding his binoculars and looking around the battlefield. When he saw the figures of enemies and riders appearing from the north side of the high ground, he sighed out loud and said, "This time Tapris is really angry, he didn't even leave a path for us to escape to, he's going to fight us to death!"

At this moment, the enemy's slow advancing crowd suddenly trembled. With an earth-shattering roar, everyone began to accelerate. The decisive moment had finally arrived.

"No cannon fire? The enemy really didn't have cannons! No, no, no, they were definitely not worried about the life of Viscount Ah Lan. Hahaha … Brothers, the Austrian Army's artillery is out of ammunition, our biggest threat is over! "

Xiao Letian was jumping around in excitement in the headquarters room, but the soldiers in the trenches didn't have the time to bother with him, as all of their gazes were focused on the black mass of the enemy.

"Two hundred meters of preparation …" Prepare 150 meters... Prepare 100 meters... "What are you panicking for? The position is already so narrow. No matter how many people there are, it's a fixed number to face us head on. Don't be afraid, just hold on tight …"

"Eighty meters ready …" Fifty meters of prep work... Handgrenade Preparation... Blast them to death! " Along with the loud commands from the military officers, a lump of iron suddenly rose into the air and flew straight towards the crowd.

Boom! Boom! Boom! A cloud of dust rose from the crowd of Austrian Army. A distance of fifty meters was the result of Prussian army throwing grenades, and there was no chance of failure at this distance.

"The enemy is near the first trench …" Fire! Fire! Kill them! " Amidst the rumbling of the grenade, the sounds of several hundred Maoists firing continuously sounded like a clap of thunder from afar.

The bullets flew all over the battlefield. The Austrian Army soldiers were knocked down like cut leek. The most densely packed area of the crowd was where one bullet could penetrate two or three soldiers' bodies.

These Austrian Army who had just reached the edge of the trench stood on top of the piles of soil, looking like wooden puppets on a shooting-range. This type of target did not even need to be aimed at, as long as you silently reloaded and pulled the trigger, the problem of hit rate would not even be considered.

Austrian Army's body fell into the trench like a dumpling, causing the battlefield to be filled with wails and cries. Xiao Letian was a little confused at first, he didn't know where the's crazy assault was coming from, but when he heard the officers in the group shouting, he finally understood.

"Charge..." Damned trash, hurry up and charge … You guys eat the best military rations in the empire, have the highest military pay, and get the best weapons. Why is this all happening? "

"Remember this, it's because the thornbush gardener has the highest proportion of nobility in all the troops in the empire! It is because of us nobles that we give you such generous conditions! Right now is the time for you to repay your gratitude, rush forward to save Viscount Ah Lan! "

"No one is allowed to retreat! Those who retreat are to be executed immediately!" "Don't even think about being a deserter. The gate of the Imperial Military Court is wide open, and only death awaits deserters!"

Amidst the shouts of countless officers, the last bit of Austrian Army's morale was squeezed out. Relying on the illusory sense of security brought about by having more people, everyone frantically rushed forward.

Xiao Letian was very clear that since the battle had reached this stage, there was no need for the strategist to be in charge of things in the headquarters. Right now, it was just a battle of wills, a game of life and death, a method to increase or decrease the intensity of fire.

"Maintain the density of your firepower, and don't let anyone who escapes the net get away with it …" And the knife drawing team? Dragon Lord, you brought knife drawing team to the battlefield to save my life.

Xiao Letian bellowed so hard that his vocal cords were about to tear. He didn't have the ability to fight hand-to-hand, but he had never left his practice area before.

The ruthlessness of modern war was evident from this charge. The density of the charging crowd and the firing of bullets became a cold and merciless mathematical formula. The firing of bullets was greater than the density of the firing crowd, so your position could hold.

However, the real war was not acting, nor was it a Hollywood movie from the future, nor was it the computer game that Xiao Letian liked to play the most in his previous life. In a real war, you face life after life, and all you do is try to end the other person's life and survive.

Countless Hamburg recruit had already gone mad from the attacks. They mechanically reloaded and fired, looking at the corpses that fell into the trenches layer after layer. They even let out wolf howls, and some even cried while killing people.

Everyone's eyes were red from killing. Behind the group of people charging in, Ta Bulisibojue and Peng Ka led their respective guard company's soldiers and galloped forward.

"Charge!" Everyone charge! No matter how much of a sacrifice it is, we only want the Shiqiao uplands! "

"Soldiers, retreat! I'll shoot the class monitor, and the class monitor will withdraw! I'll shoot Queue length, Queue length will withdraw, I'll shoot Company Commander!" Until I do, the king himself will shoot me, the count! If I don't win, I might as well die! "

This time, the thornbush gardener was in earnest. Under the supervision of all the high-ranking officers, the soldiers that were threatened by death started to rush towards the high ground one after another. Corpses fell into the trenches one after another, and the two meter deep trenches were about to be filled up.

There would always be a moment of relaxation as there would always be some lucky soldiers who would dodge the rain of bullets and jump down from the trenches alive. They would hide among the corpses to gather their strength, and after four or five people in a group, they would suddenly rush into the trenches and charge towards the second and third trenches.

"It's broken through! The first trench has been broken through!" The entire army will go up, and annihilate the enemy in one go! "
