This is just a microcosm of the entire battlefield.

In fact, the National Salvation Army, which is in a defensive state, is at a disadvantage, even if 170 regular troops are assisting, it is useless.

The Black Hawk Army had at least twenty sets of grenade launchers staring at the MG42 machine gun five hundred meters away. As long as the MG42's flames spewed for more than thirty seconds, grenades would be projected, so the machine gun shooters would also change their battle positions for twenty seconds, and they could not form firepower to continue at all.

Although the eight mortars are far more powerful than grenade launchers, their quality cannot completely make up for the shortcomings of quantity. This time, the seventy grenade launchers of the Black Hawk Army are very flexible and scattered. For a moment, the mortars can't do anything to them.

Liu Dazhu could only ask the temporary mortar platoon to mainly support the front line positions. He would support wherever the situation was critical, and finally resisted the crazy attack of the Black Hawks.

If there were no eight mortars, the Black Hawk Army might have rushed into the trenches for hand-to-hand combat. At this time, the role of the mountain cannon was shown. If the National Salvation Army had mountain cannons, it could blow 500 meters in front of the position into a sea of ​​fire, and the Black Hawk Empire Army would not have the courage to spread so many troops out at once.

"Teacher Commander, the Black Hawk Empire people are completely crazy. The brothers are suffering heavy casualties! They can't hold on anymore. Let's retreat! If they don't retreat, my regiment will be almost wiped out." Wang Lin, the new commander of the first regiment of the National Salvation Army, rolled and crawled over from the front line, almost begging Shang Wenqing to cry.

Shang Wenqing looked at Liu Dazhu, who was holding a telescope and staring at the battlefield. His muscles on his face trembled and shouted loudly: "You can't withdraw if you wipe it all. My old Shangwen and you and your old Wang have promised Commander Liu to withstand the Black Hawk Empire for half an hour. Brothers have all your old Wang and you wiped it all over. If you wipe it out, you will have to fight this half an hour for me."

"I am the Black Hawk Empire man raised by a bitch, then I will fight you." After hearing what Shang Wenqing said, Wang Lin, who had a few traces of despair, threw his hat to the ground, turned his head and rushed back to the position.

Seeing that the old brother was like this, Shang Wenqing, who already knew that he was determined to die, also bit his cheeks and tried hard not to let his tears flow out.

How could he not know why Wang Lin would come over to beg him? The group of brothers under the front position was under the greatest pressure. In just half an hour, more than 300 brothers were gone. Those were nearly one-third of the soldiers! But only half an hour had passed, and another half an hour had come. How many people could a group of brothers with one thousand be left?

"Company Commander Liu, you continue to be in charge of the overall situation. I will take my guard platoon to reinforce Lao Wang. Damn, I won't believe it anymore. I can't withstand the attack of the Black Hawk Empire for an hour." Shang Wenqing probably also had a temper and was about to leave with a pistol.

However, Liu Dazhu grabbed him and advised: "Ship Commander Shang, you are the commander of the army. If something happens to you, the national rescue army will collapse immediately. The situation is not at its most critical moment. You must not be impulsive. The Black Hawk Empire's offensive will not last long. They will retreat immediately and accumulate energy to carry out the next round of attacks. Niu Er and the others will also cause some trouble for them there. We can hold on until the regiment commander and others come."

Before he could finish his words, a fire suddenly appeared on the periphery of the Black Hawk Imperial Army's position in the distance, and a "cracking" sound came from afar.

Xu Haiming, who was watching the battlefield with a telescope, frowned and asked the staff officer beside him: "Gunshot?"

But in a moment, a Black Hawk Army lieutenant came to report that a team of enemies were launching an attack behind the position side, with extremely strong firepower, with a number of about 1,500 people, and fifteen imperial soldiers had already died on the spot.

Xu Haiming was not surprised at all and sneered, "Order the Seventh Infantry Brigade to attack and block them."

Guo Jin, who was standing beside him, looked at the lieutenant of the Black Hawk Army and left, and a trace of admiration surged out of his face and looked at Xu Haiming: "Chief Xu is indeed as expected. Guo Jin is deeply impressed by this group of bandits in the kingdom.

"Guo Jinmi praised the kingdom people just a trick. They wanted to attack the east and west again, learn the tactics of the ancient city regiment, use the main force to attract our army's attention, and then attack with a team of side-level attacks, trying to disrupt our army. However, they miscalculated their strength. Even if they had the help of the regular army of the kingdom, they still could not change the fact that they were not a real army." Xu Haiming's face showed a hint of pride and said proudly.

Yes, it is not easy for Xu Haiming to be the chief of staff of a division? Although he is not a division commander, his head is still enough.

If the kingdoms wanted to pick up the advantage of the Eighth Division, then he should have come to attack. But the kingdoms had no intention of attacking at the beginning, but instead built trenches in front of the position. Is it meant to fight a protracted war with him? Just the mortars in their hands? I have never heard that mortars alone can defeat an army. They have heavy artillery, or they can also have enough mountain artillery.

But obviously, they didn't.

Moreover, their tenacity was completely beyond Xu Haiming's surprise. The "Kingdom Bandits" in the telescope were seriously injured, but they still carried it back and refused to retreat. What was their purpose? What were they waiting for? Xu Haiming immediately thought of the damn ancient city regiment in Anwupo, and the damn ancient city regiment used their defensive positions to firmly attract the attention of the entire division, but ambushed an elite soldier who entered the division with one blow when the division was most unprepared and destroyed the division's heavy artillery, which eventually changed the end of the entire war.

If the artillery troops were fine, why did the 8th Division fall to such a point?

Moreover, after half a day of observation, Xu Haiming was sure that there were not only bandits on the opposite side, but also regular troops of the kingdom. Otherwise, if a group of bandits who even had to pull the bolts for a long time would have suffered so many casualties?

After two rounds of attacks, the three infantry brigades killed many enemies, but they actually died in battle and injured more than 300 people. This is almost the number of casualties in fighting a brigade of the Kingdom people.

Therefore, Xu Haiming made a quick decision and immediately sent two of the three infantry brigades as the reserve team to the left and right wings of the main position to prevent sneak attacks by the kingdoms.

Sure enough, in just five minutes, the sneak attack from the kingdom people came.

"Guo Jin, the kingdom people cannot have too many troops. The 1,500 people appearing here are their limits. I want to command the attack of the frontal position, so please Guo Jin." Xu Haiming turned his eyes to the frontal battlefield where he was fighting a thousand meters away.

There is the real battlefield to decide the outcome.

"Yes!" Guo Jin accepted the military order in conscience and went to the left wing of the position.

That's right, a team of troops led by Shi Datou and Niu Er was indeed "sneak attack", and also fired a lot of guns. They even used two machine guns to sweep the Black Hawk Army's positions for a while, and at least a dozen Black Hawk Empires were swept down.

However, it was slightly different from what Xu Haiming thought.

They were not the estimated 1,500 people by the Black Hawk Army, nor did they intend to rush into the enemy camp. Shi Datou and Niu Er each brought a company, and the two peasant army recruit companies had only about 300 people in total.

If the Black Hawk Army of the 7th Infantry Brigade 300 meters away had a better eye, they would see the sound of thousands of people firing. In fact, it was just dozens of iron buckets and firecrackers exploding inside.

The movement was earth-shaking, and it was really no smaller than shooting thousands of rifles together. Even the frontal battlefield thousands of meters away could be heard.

As Liu Dazhu said, the Black Hawk Army on the front battlefield retreated to 600 meters away for a brief revision after the attack was fruitless. The National Salvation Army finally gained valuable breathing time.

The casualties reported by the three regiment commanders in the battle intervals made the iron-blooded soldier like Liu Dazhu shocked. In just over half an hour of battle, the National Salvation Army actually killed more than 600 people, injured more than 400, and the casualties rate was as high as one-third.

The reason why fewer injured than those who died was because the Black Hawk Army's shooting skills were really accurate enough. They either hit the head or the chest, and they could not save them even if they wanted to save them.

Maybe he thought he had guessed the trick of the bandits in the kingdom, or maybe he thought that the kingdom people on the opposite position were at the end of their strength. Xu Haiming ordered another increase in troops to the front battlefield. In addition to the two infantry brigades on the left and right wings, the last infantry brigade was also sent to the front battlefield by him.

The number of Black Hawk Army on the front battlefield is as high as four infantry brigades and nearly 4,000 people.

Through the morning mist, I looked at the shadows of the Black Hawk soldiers on the opposite side with countless shadows. Only more than 2,000 people stayed in the trenches with a length of two kilometers. The muscles on the faces of the National Savior Army were almost stiff, and the air in the trenches seemed to have suffocated.

The next moment is the final battle.

However, how many of the 2,000 people here can live to see the dawn?

The nervous soldiers did not notice that the last trace of darkness before dawn was quietly retreating, and the whiteness of the fish in the east had already begun to appear.
