Battlefield of All Sides

Chapter 203 Tanks!

This heavy rain was not a timely rain, because it rained continuously all night, and the accumulated water in the tunnel had overflowed to the ankles, and the deeper bunker was dug at the moment, and yellow muddy water flowed in, and the entire tunnel The place is full of the earthy smell of loess, and everyone's body is more or less wet.

This situation makes everyone feel very uncomfortable, but they still maintain vigilance in such weather.

Because yesterday's British attack was so unusual, it was so weird that it was hard to think that what these people launched was just an ordinary attack, and it was finally interrupted by a sudden rainstorm.

But the strange thing is that the British army really didn't launch any more attacks. After the rainstorm ended, everything seemed very quiet in the dark night, and the British army's position did not move at all.

Li Mu didn't rest all night because of this. The abnormal behavior of the British army yesterday made Li Mu feel that there must be something wrong, but at this moment he couldn't tell what the problem was.

So on the battlefield, Li Mu waited until dawn with deep exhaustion, but when the sky was slightly bright, it began to rain again in the sky, and the rain gradually increased, and it seemed that there would be no more problems up.

Li Mu hurriedly found a place to rest, but felt that he hadn't rested for a while, but a sound came suddenly.

It was the explosion of artillery shells, but the explosion was far away from him, and the direction seemed to be the British army position in the distance.

Li Mu crawled to the edge of the trench and poked his head out to look. Seeing the earth flowers blooming in the British army's position, he felt very relieved at the moment. He smiled and lay in the wet mud, but he finally let go of his heart.

The German artillery fire is raging on the opponent's position. At this time, the opponent will not get out anyway, but this belated revenge also tells Li Mu and others that the safety of this area is now guaranteed.

The other soldiers who poked their heads out to check also looked relaxed, and they were no longer suspicious. Immediately, Li Mu sat up and asked his subordinates to have breakfast immediately to replenish their physical strength, and then dry their boots.

Everyone started to deal with their own affairs, and the position was relatively brisk. However, this atmosphere did not last long. When Li Mu was still eating breakfast, a soldier suddenly exclaimed.

"Those Brits are on the attack!"

The weather at this moment is still gloomy, and a large field of gray soldiers sprang out from the scorched land, the number is no less than yesterday's!

Li Mudang threw his lunch box on the ground, took a look through the binoculars, and immediately gasped.

These Brits are stubborn.

Li Mu yelled to get everyone ready to fight, but there were screams in the sky, and the artillery fire from the British army hit violently again. Li Mu had no choice but to order the soldiers to look for cover immediately, but it didn't take long for them to wait. , the sound of the artillery disappeared, Li Mu rushed to the trench, and loudly ordered the soldiers to start fighting back.

But it didn't take long before all this happened, suddenly a soldier stood up and pointed to the far side and shouted loudly.

"What's that? The Brit pushed the cannon up?"

As soon as the words fell, the soldier was knocked down with a single shot. Some soldiers rushed to treat him, but Li Mu immediately looked up. This was a terrible sight.

The soldier's so-called cannon was not a cannon pushed by two wheels at all, it was a vehicle's cannon.

In other words, the British pushed the tanks into position!
At this moment, Li Mu finally understood what was going on with yesterday's attack. These British troops were only trying to find the way for these tanks. The reason why they retreated after the attack was to wait for the arrival of these tanks!

"Where is Hans! Quickly find Hans!" Li Mu shouted loudly, looking for Hans on the battlefield, and many people have basically seen the appearance of the steel monster at this moment. I haven't seen such a weapon before, and I don't know what it is.

Hans was also lying on the trench, frowning and watching the situation, until Li Mu pulled him over, and then he saw Li Mu's anxious expression.

"Take your people, go to the back and take out all the cement cones that were originally cast, and carry them to the position, to the position in front of us. Quick!"

Li Mu shouted loudly, Hans was also awakened by Li Mu's words at this moment, although he didn't know what those British guys did, but now it seems that his battalion commander has given a method of fighting.

Hans immediately called a group of soldiers to go to the concrete cone, but Li Mu boarded the trench again, and saw more than a dozen very tall, square No. [-] tanks walking on the tracks gradually appearing in the distance At the moment, the soldiers are asked to bring all the weapons, and the grenades are tied into bundles, and then they are asked to cover the actions of Hans and the others.

Those tanks are still some distance away from the second-line positions. At the moment, the British troops are crazily gnawing at the first-line positions. I have to say that the presence of these tanks on the frontlines is a great deterrent. Those German soldiers found that they had no way to kill them. The humming monster was even more terrified at the moment.

The first-line position was crumbling, and Li Mu and others in the second-line position were naturally also battered.

Fortunately, most of these tanks were refitted from tractor bases, with pieces of iron plates hanging on them, with machine guns and small cannons, but they couldn't move fast in such a loose position. a bunker.

But this is enough. Although Li Mu has already prepared for this, the expressions of the soldiers when they looked at this unprecedented weapon have proved their fear.

It took some time for the cement cones to be transported to the battlefield. Hans and the others completed the task despite the hail of bullets. Li Mu asked everyone to regroup their firepower and prepare to watch the cement cones make it difficult for the tanks to move, and then launch a violent attack.

But all this is just Li Mu's own imagination. Seeing those rumbling tanks contacting those cement cones, Li Mu waited for those tanks to stop, only to find that those tanks easily crossed over. The cement cone was pressed into the soil together with the barbed wire and the wooden stake.

The soil on this field is too soft, and the cement cones have instead become a stepping stone for the tanks, allowing them to drive faster!

The soldiers looked at Li Mu unanimously. Li Mu's face was sinking, so he had to order the soldiers to launch an attack immediately, telling them that these enemies must not be allowed to cross the second-line positions.

The gunfire suddenly intensified again, and the soldiers began to fight back again, while Li Mu rushed to a machine gun position and directed his firepower directly at the tanks.

To put it bluntly, this first-generation tank is a tractor with iron armor hanging on it. It is very easy to lie down, and the bullets of the heavy machine gun should be able to break its armor very easily.

The ammunition belt of the heavy machine gun was shot out, and the hot stream of bullets bounced off the tank, some of which also penetrated into it. The machine gun bullets attacked continuously, and indeed the tank stopped.

But this kind of firepower immediately attracted the attention of these tanks. Several tanks lowered their barrels towards the machine gun position. Li Mu felt bad. The impact of one of the tanks, followed by the sound of gunfire.

Li Mu saw that shell exploded in front of the machine gun position, but these small-caliber shells did not seem to be powerful enough for the sandbag-covered position, and the machine gun position still existed.

Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief, but ordered the other soldiers to attack violently, launching intensive attacks on the soldiers and tanks that rushed up.

The battle on the battlefield became more and more anxious. The gunshots on the first-line positions had begun to become quieter. Standing on the second-line positions and looking around, what I saw were countless British soldiers and tanks. This time the battle, perhaps It is a decisive battle.
