heavy weapon is king

Chapter 138 Heavy Machine Gun Position
Under Nie Zheng's order, the five thousand dragon and tiger bandits deployed on the south bank soon took action.

Standing by the river, Shi Zheng ordered everyone to take back the seventy Maxim heavy machine guns deployed on the shore, while Niu Meng ordered a group of bazooka launchers and mortar launchers to quickly put the ammunition and equipment into boxes one by one. Moved to the riverside.

Xu Shijie, Su Dongshan and others had already pushed all the remaining rafts into the water.

Since the raft can only carry ten people and some ammunition and equipment at a time, Nie Zheng ordered everyone to cross the river in batches.

While everyone was busy preparing to cross the river, Nie Zheng also ordered Chen Shou to lead a group of sharp-sighted snipers to the upstream and downstream of the south bank respectively, in order to observe the enemy's situation and give an early warning.

According to Jia Xiufang's reminder, tens of thousands of soldiers of the Song Dynasty were stationed hundreds of miles downstream from the south bank, and on the other side of the river from the camp of the Song Army, there were also tens of thousands of allied troops of the Da Viet tribe stationed there.

Just now after Nie Zheng and the others disabled the water ghost fleet of the Da Yue people, they used depth charges to wipe out the water monkeys hiding at the bottom of the river. It is estimated that the Da Yue soldiers and horses stationed a hundred miles downstream have already received the news. Should be on the way.

The distance of hundreds of miles, within a few hours, the gang of Dayue tribal coalition forces simply couldn't keep up.

Therefore, Nie Zheng must lead his troops and deploy them across the river in advance before the troops of the Da Yue natives in the downstream reach the other side.

Thinking of this, Nie Zheng made arrangements for the people crossing the river on the spot.

First of all, the first batch of troops to cross the river were mainly elite military personnel. As for the logistics, food and supplies, they would slowly ferry them over after they reached the opposite bank and deployed their defensive positions.

If the logistics materials are transported across the river first, I am afraid that the enemy's brigade will kill them, and it will be difficult to deal with it.

Although the seventy Maxim heavy machine guns have an effective range of more than 1000 meters and can suppress the enemy across the Yuanjiang River, I am afraid that those cunning Da Viet natives will resort to some sinister tricks to burn Nie Zheng their food and supplies, this is not the result that Nie Zheng wants.

At least two hours have passed since Nie Zheng led the troops to appear on the south bank of the Yuan River.

Looking at the sky, the sun has already passed noon and is gradually slanting westward. In a few hours, the sky will be dark.

According to Nie Zheng's judgment, those Da Viet troops stationed a hundred miles downstream should have been on their way long ago. It is estimated that before dark, the enemy's large army will definitely appear.

Once the large army of Da Yue natives arrived here, the two sides would inevitably have a fierce battle.

In this way, under the command of their respective leaders, all bandit minions started to implement the plan of crossing the river in an orderly manner according to the plan designated by Nie Zheng.

…………

At this moment, Nie Zheng and Jia Xiufang were looking at the map of Annan County and discussing the battle plan after crossing the river.

At this moment, Niu Meng led several powerful leaders to the front, and they all bowed their hands and saluted: "Master, the raft is ready, let the subordinates and others escort you across the river."

Nie Zheng glanced at them, nodded, and said to Jia Xiufang, "Xiufang, let's get on the raft first, and we'll talk in detail after crossing the river."

"it is good."

After Jia Xiufang put away the map, Nie Zheng, with the support of everyone, hurried to the riverside, and carefully boarded the wobbly raft.

After boarding the raft, several leaders who were in charge of pole and paddle stretched their arms, controlled the raft, and rowed towards the opposite bank with all their strength.

It didn't take long for everyone to reach the other side of the river at a distance of about 300 meters.

After reaching the opposite bank, Nie Zheng quickly jumped onto the bank with Niu Meng's support.

At this moment, the first batch of military elites crossing the river also landed one after another.

Just as Nie Zheng and others were crossing the river, the natives of Dayue in the watchtower on the opposite bank screamed and abandoned the tower and fled. Facing this gang of murderous Han people, they dared not run out to intercept and fight back.

Seeing this scene, Nie Zheng called out to Shi Zheng who was directing the crowd to carry the heavy machine guns: "Master Shi, follow me ashore to observe the terrain."

After hearing the leader's call, Shi Zheng immediately put down the work at hand, quickly ran to Nie Zheng, and asked respectfully: "Leader, do you want to take your subordinates down to pick the location where the heavy machine gun is deployed?"

Nie Zheng nodded, and said: "The enemy's large army will probably arrive soon, we must deploy all the heavy machine guns in advance, and when the time comes, when the tribal coalition forces of the Da Yue natives arrive, give them a Head on."

Hearing this, Shi Zheng's eyes lit up, he laughed loudly and said: "Wonderful, wonderful, leader quickly take the subordinates down to choose a position."

"go!"

With a big wave of Nie Zheng's hand, Niu Meng, Shi Zheng, Jia Xiufang and more than a dozen leaders followed behind and headed straight for the slope on the bank.

Everyone left the river and climbed over the slope on the bank. Suddenly, the vision in front of them was wide open.

It turned out that on the slope of the opposite bank, there was an extremely wide plain.

Everyone looked around, and the field in front of them was flat and flat.

Seeing this scene, Nie Zheng couldn't help laughing and said: "Good terrain, God help me!"

"Leader, let's deploy all the heavy machine guns on this field?"

"That's right, this kind of flat terrain is most suitable for heavy machine gun shooting."

Nie Zheng pointed to the end of the wilderness in front of him, and said in a cheerful mood: "As long as we deploy all [-] heavy machine guns in this area, no matter how many troops the Da Yue natives come to There is only one dead end."

Hearing this, Shi Zheng took a deep breath, cupped his hands and said, "This subordinate, go down and get ready."

Nie Zheng nodded, and said: "I order everyone to move quickly, and we must hurry up and deploy."

"Yes, lord..."

Looking at the back of Shi Zheng leaving excitedly, Niu Meng who was standing by the side couldn't help asking: "Leader, wait for our bazooka launcher, how should we deploy it?"

Nie Zheng turned his head to look at him, and said calmly: "You just need to load the ammunition and listen to my orders at any time. However, in this kind of terrain, those Da Yue natives can't rush over at all. I guess they don't need rocket launchers to help them out. .When the time comes, you can just assist with light machine guns."

Niu Meng nodded, and said: "Okay, later we will cooperate with Master Shi and the others to shoot and kill the group of Da Yue monkeys."
