On the silent streets, rubble and bomb craters are scattered throughout the field of vision. The battle for Kaunia has become very fierce as the station changes hands. Neither the Holy Demon Empire nor the Puppet Empire are willing to accept this fact. They hope
You can take back the station and stabilize your position.
However, a day of continuous fierce fighting left both sides exhausted. The puppet empire lost a total of 13,000 soldiers near the station, and still could not regain the lost positions.
"The puppets are gathering nearby!" Behind the rubble, a commander lowered his telescope and said to his comrades: "There may be a fierce battle in a while."
"It doesn't matter. The reinforcements from above have arrived. We are not afraid of them." His colleague glanced at the new weapons behind him and said proudly.
They should indeed have such confidence. After all, the heavy weapons equipped by the Army are not updated very quickly. Any weapons that can be called new weapons are definitely very terrifying killing machines.
"Drive that guy over here! Deploy it here! Wait if the puppet empire attacks! Fire here to suppress their main attack direction!" the officer who put down the telescope ordered loudly.
On the other side of the ruins, Airan Hill's soldiers had occupied the high ground. They established a machine gun position in a mage tower that had not completely collapsed, and set up two mg-42 machine guns there.
Then, the defensive position stretched to the front of the position. About 100 soldiers deployed a defensive line along the ruins and rubble. With the support of mortars, the entire position could overlook the enemy's attack direction.
After experiencing urban battles one after another, these soldiers have accumulated rich experience in urban street fighting. The defensive positions they have deployed now are typical urban street fighting positions. They are very effective in dealing with the counterattacks of the puppet soldiers of the puppet empire.
After hearing the commander's order, the crew member over there gave a thumbs up. The tracked armored vehicle started up, sprayed out a stream of black smoke from the rear, and then began to move forward slowly.
While moving, several nearby soldiers helped find a suitable location. At a place where most of the vehicle body could be hidden and firepower could be unleashed, this majestic-looking armored vehicle stopped.
The front of it was very crowded, and because of problems such as the splicing angles of the steel plates and other mounted items, even the magic defense barrier could not be arranged. Such a weird-looking guy calmed down again and lay on his back.
position, waiting for the battle to break out.
Soon a battle began. The soldiers of the Puppet Empire launched a sea of human charge without any preparation for artillery: because the artillery could not defeat the artillery of Alan Hill, the 130 mm caliber artillery of these Puppet Empire was very difficult.
I haven't fired much for a long time.
"!" On the position, the first Mauser 98k gunshot echoed suddenly, and then the gunfire gradually became more intensive as if hearing a signal, breaking the calm nearby. Countless puppet soldiers began to advance along the street, densely packed
The sea of people became the best target for machine guns.
This time, the puppet army also used puppet tanks and a rarely seen giant puppet.
The huge dolls are about 3 meters tall and wear thicker armor that can withstand attacks from many light weapons. However, these dolls are often targeted by rocket launchers in the hands of Airan Hill soldiers, so their actual effect is not good.
.
Without any preparation, the attack of the Puppet Empire began. After a volley of mortars from Eiland Hill, these puppets who braved the artillery fire approached the position of Eiland Hill's defenders.
On the new weapon of Alan Hill that was ambushed on the side of the road and was ready for battle, the crew members were already ready for battle. They pointed their weapons in the direction of the puppet's attack, two slender barrels
Aiming at the enemy's huge crowds.
The zsu-57-2 is a new type of self-propelled anti-aircraft artillery in service with Eiland Hill. The number of equipment is actually not large, but this anti-aircraft gun is powerful and has a high rate of fire, and it has temporarily become an anti-aircraft weapon for many troops.
It is a pity that because Airan Hill's air force is so powerful, for a long time, Airan Hill's anti-aircraft artillery troops could not find a target to kill. The Dragon Knight, who was originally so feared, now appears again.
The number of times on the battlefield is getting less and less.
Therefore, more and more troops are using the self-propelled anti-aircraft guns issued to them as a "large-caliber machine gun tank" to deal with infantry. Anyway, the enemy does not have any decent anti-tank means. This kind of self-propelled anti-aircraft gun
Anti-aircraft guns can serve as armored vehicles most of the time.
"Fire!" After aiming at the target, the commander gave the order to fire. Two slender 57mm-caliber cannons began to spit out tongues of fire violently. The large-caliber shells rushed through the crowd, beating countless puppets into pieces.
The condition of the part.
Large-caliber artillery shells can also penetrate the puppet tanks when they hit them. The two advancing puppet tanks were paralyzed on the road, and thick smoke emitted, obscuring the puppet soldiers behind them.
After this violent burst of fire, the soldiers of the puppet empire rushed up like a tide, and then receded like a tide. Within a minute, almost 100 rounds of 57 mm caliber artillery shells hit the crowd of puppet soldiers like a storm.
, the losses caused can be imagined.
On the position, the soldiers of Eiland Hill cheered. They repelled the counterattack of this group of puppet soldiers without paying any cost.
Unfortunately, their cheers did not last ten seconds before the puppet empire's retaliatory bombardment began. A 130 mm caliber howitzer shell landed on the position where the Airan Hill soldiers were stationed, followed closely by the third
The second and the third.
"Damn it! When did the puppet empire learn to fight like this?" Seeing his position covered by artillery fire, the Airan Hill battalion commander who was directing the battle turned around angrily and asked his deputy.
The Puppet Empire has always ordered artillery attacks before battles, but at this time, it was often suppressed by the artillery fire of Elan Hill, which had little effect.
Later, the troops of the puppet empire stopped firing artillery altogether, so as not to send a signal to Elanthir to prove that they were going to attack, and risk being counterattacked, which might even lead to a lot of artillery fire.
However, today, the puppet troops actually learned to open fire and attack Ailancier's position immediately after retreating. This can effectively kill Ailancier's active forces who are still on the position.
"The more they fight, the more experienced they become, and the smarter they become." Another officer looked at the dozens of falling shells and praised them.
It's not just Airan Hill who has made progress, the puppet empire is also learning war in the war. The puppet soldiers who were originally stupid and dull have also learned many useful skills through countless failures.
Although these techniques are not yet comparable to those mastered by real humans, they are indeed improving.
"Huh!" Just when everyone was shocked, the artillery of Ailan Hill began to counterattack. The larger 155mm caliber howitzers, as well as the 203mm caliber howitzers strengthened for street fighting troops, began to attack the puppet empire's artillery where they might be.
Fire in the direction.
Dozens of artillery shells roared past the positions controlled by Eiland Hill, and then landed in a distant neighborhood. The explosion destroyed many buildings there in an instant. Amidst the deafening sound, another one collapsed in half, as if
The chimney-like magic tower collapsed amidst the sound of cannons.
I don't know whether he was really hit or was frightened, but the bombardment of the puppet empire stopped. Only Elanthir's bombardment was left on the battlefield and continued, as if it was tireless.
"From now on, after repelling the puppet empire's attack, we must pay attention to keeping the soldiers hidden." The battalion commander ordered the officer behind him while climbing up the smoking defensive position.
"Yes! I will write a report later and send it to the Army Group Headquarters... This kind of thing must be notified to the entire army immediately." The officer following the battalion commander nodded.
Walking on the reverse slope of the ruins, he bent down and agreed.
There was no time to retreat. The zsu-57-2 self-propelled anti-aircraft gun that had just established its merits was hit by a shell and was scrapped on the spot. Three members of the crew were killed, together with 8 infantrymen who were killed, which became the center of this local battle.
Total loss of life at Eiland Hill.
The sudden bombardment made Eiland Hill's troops feel the cruelty of war, and they also realized that the enemy they faced was not as easy to deal with as they thought.
"Buzz..." Before the bombardment ended, four Il-2 attack aircraft carried bombs and flew over the war zone where the exchange of fire had just occurred. The Air Force dispatched its own aircraft as soon as the fighting broke out, but unfortunately the response speed was not that timely.
Chasing the defeated puppets, the IL-2 attacks started a massacre. These aircraft dropped bombs on the heads of the puppet empire soldiers, blowing up the defeated puppets.
Although the model is very old, these IL-2 attack aircraft are still very useful when attacking the ground. At least compared to jet fighters, they are sturdy and durable and require very little ground support equipment.
"Let the troops advance 50 meters! Control the building over there! Set up a circular defense position there! Check all places! Don't let the puppet soldiers infiltrate!" After counting the losses of the troops, the battalion commander ordered with hatred
.
After sorting out their weapons and equipment, a company took the lead to set off. The soldiers carrying weapons and ammunition passed by the bodies of fallen soldiers arranged in a row and saw their companions lying quietly on the ground. The faces of these soldiers
