Chapter 478 Distressed

Chapter 478 Heartbroken

Author: Uncle Long Legs

Chapter 478 Heartbroken

When I heard a burst of footsteps coming from behind me.

Fan Zhu, who originally had messy hair and a stubble on his face and looked quite tired, turned around and saw that the person was Xu Feng, and his whole body was immediately refreshed.

Immediately, with a look of expectation on his face, he asked:

"Xufeng, what did Lao Hu say?"

After hearing this, Xu Feng took off the stainless steel helmet on his head and threw it on the ground with a bang. With a livid face, he gritted his molar teeth and replied:

"What else can I say? He told me about the one who threw himself into the street. Don't talk about the withdrawal. There are no windows.

We have only reached the primary stage now. How could we start using the reserve team so quickly?

Later, he asked the two of us if it would work? If not, he would ask someone else to lead the third division; because he felt that even if a girl like the imperial concubine came in, she would be more capable than the two of us."

Upon hearing this, Fan Zhu, a rookie from New Oriental, asked with the last glimmer of hope:

"Since the reserve force cannot be used, that's fine! But in terms of artillery support, the independent artillery division can always open fire with all its strength, right?

There are also barbed wire, landmines, and heartless cannons that should be usable."

"Hu Biao said, it's not the right time yet. None of the above will work. Let's wait for a while."

Xu Feng answered this while skillfully rolling a trumpet cigarette for himself. After lighting it, he burned most of it with one strong puff.

This is a way to express my extremely depressed mood.

After Fan Zhu heard this sentence, his last hope was shattered, and he immediately cursed:

"Hu Biao is a deadbeat, I will xx him (the following 200 words of unique personal guard greetings are omitted)..."

Such a crazy greeting to Hu Biao is not Fan Zhu, but the rookie cook who was summoned for this mission. After following the team for more than 9 months, he is already a little drifting.

Or maybe it was because he was so angry that he was like an old bird, always greeting the commander Hu Biao cordially.

The key reason is that this rookie is too impatient.

Why? Today is already the fifth day of October in the first year of Maode, which is the fourth day since the Jin soldiers officially arrived at the Zhuxian Town battlefield and launched their attack.

On the second day of October, after the Jin people failed in their initial attack, because they needed to make some large wooden shields, there was no movement for the whole day, which allowed them to spend the day easily.

However, starting from the next day, their life became more and more difficult day by day.

Especially all the officers and soldiers of the first, third, and fifth infantry divisions who were blocking the front of the town.

In every attack of the Jin people, because they had an outrageous strength advantage, there was no feint attack or main attack direction in every attack.

It was basically a team of at least 30,000 people. They just pressed forward like this, and every position was the main attacker.

After a hard fight between the two sides, when their own morale was about to collapse, the thieves had to abandon many corpses and retreat.

Regarding the defense of the 1st Infantry Division of the Chinese Army, and the 5th Infantry Division currently defending the left wing, what are the thoughts in the minds of all their officers and soldiers until today?

He doesn't want to take care of Fan Zhu, and he can't.

What he is most concerned about right now is whether the 3rd Infantry Division that is defending the right wing can be withdrawn at this point, even if it is not for a long time, as long as it takes a day's temporary rest.

The reason for this is that in the Third Infantry Division, the division commander was a veteran, Xu Feng, and the deputy division commander was a rookie.

To be more specific, more than four months ago, under the entrustment and appointment of the team, the two of them brought together tens of thousands of officers and soldiers of the Third Infantry Division.

They were selected from the recruit camp one by one and then formed this army.

In order to form combat effectiveness as quickly as possible, the two of them spent more than four months living together, eating, sleeping, and fighting.

Human hearts are made of flesh.

After putting in so much effort, it can be said that Fan Zhu, a rookie, completely regards the Third Division as his own home, and all the officers and soldiers of the division also regard him as his own family.

Then, there are these members he considers family.

In the past few days, I had to face the Jin people at least five or six times every day, and even launched attacks like wheel battles at night.

Relying on the advantages of weapons and camps, the Third Division's casualties each time were not many.

But after several consecutive days, the four regiments of their third division were divided into two groups, and they continued to fight in alternation.

As of the statistics just now, the number of casualties is still almost over 20%.

And after a long period of high-intensity combat, everyone is extremely tired physically and mentally; if they don't get any rest, the casualties will only get bigger and bigger.

So at noon today, I took advantage of the golden people’s meal time.

When the division commander Xu Feng was notified and went to the New Army headquarters in the town for a meeting, Fan Zhu encouraged Xu Feng to ask Hu Biao.

Should we let the 2nd and 4th divisions, who are currently staying behind the town and recuperating, come in and replace them, even if it only lasts a day?

If it really doesn't work, then let the independent artillery division provide full fire support.

Or start using barbed wire, landmines, and heartless cannons

Instead of hiding it like in the current battle, there are Napoleon field guns with more powerful firepower, but they are hidden and not used.

Only the small cannons of the Folan machine were used, and the number was only a small amount.

So when I learned from Xu Feng's mouth that the above two expectations were shattered.

Fan Zhu couldn't hold it in any longer, and 'Lao Hu' also turned into 'Stop on the Street' and sent a cordial greeting.

Of course, Fan Zhu and Xu Feng can also understand the reason why Hu Biao is not using the reserves and artillery and some combat methods now.

Who said they are all infantry? Their mobility is really poor?

In case of full firepower, one guy beats the golden man unconscious.

Then the Jin people left tens of thousands of cavalry to contain the New Army troops, and the remaining army swept across the south of the Yangtze River. What should they do then? The system's mission requirements, what should they do?

You know, if all three requirements of the second stage are not met, but the mission is directly judged to have failed, everyone will be wiped out.

This battle was so frustrating that there was nothing Hu Biao could do.

But understanding is understanding, and it doesn't affect the one they say hello to at all.

****

Fan Zhu's cordial greetings to Hu Biao stopped after a minute or two.

It wasn't that he had scolded enough, but just after he started, loud horn sounds were heard from the golden soldiers' formation on the opposite side.

Without thinking too much, Xu Feng and Fan Zhu knew that after the Jin people had finished their lunch and rested for a while, a new attack started again.

Like a conditioned reflex, Xu Feng spit out the butt of his cigarette, picked up the dirty stainless steel helmet, and jumped up from the ground.

And Fan Zhu's mouth was still greeting Hu Biao one second, and the next second it changed to:

"First and second regiments, prepare for battle immediately. Third and fourth regiments, you don't have to worry about anything. Just wait and have a good rest. The next attack will be your turn.

The guard battalion, communications company, and logistics battalion are ready for support.

Attention, hunters, give priority to killing those golden officers~"

Shouldn’t it be said? The battlefield is truly the best place to temper one’s skills. In just a short period of time, a modern cook from a different plane can already command an army in battle.

Under such an order, I don’t know how many soldiers of the third division were still lying on the ground like a big character, as if they had no strength at all.

As if he was resurrected with full blood, he suddenly stood up from the ground.

Taking their battalion and company as a unit, they formed a neat battle line at the edge of the camp that was stained with blood stains, and then began to skillfully load their muskets.

The only thing I can feel happy about now is the fight.

That is, after a large number of soldiers were killed and injured, their muskets were still usable, after being picked up by other spearmen and sword and shield hands.

The overall firepower of the Third Infantry Division is actually not that much weaker...
