The end of the military era

Then Liu Erga shouted: "Wang Gousheng, Sun Tieniu, and Liu Achou, the three of you are now squad leaders, hurry up and pick someone, and the remaining brothers will reorganize into three squads."

Wang Gousheng was at a loss and said, "Brother Erga, how can I be the squad leader!"

Liu Erga patted Wang Gousheng on the shoulder, "Brother, I don't know how to be a platoon leader, isn't it just to drive ducks to the shelves!

Besides, being a squad leader is not a disadvantage, and the pension is 3000 silver coins! "

In the front headquarters of the 32nd Marine Brigade of the Silver Wolf Empire Navy, the brigade commander Nikka said to the division commander Rofer with a look of frustration: "At present, the combined losses of the three infantry regiments have exceeded 3 people. too big."

Rofer's face was very ugly at this time. Not only did the three infantry regiments participating in the attack suffer heavy losses, but the heavy artillery battalion belonging to the division headquarters also lost four 3mm large-caliber howitzers in the confrontation with the human artillery.

Rofer did not expect that the artillery equipped by Zhou's army, although not as good as the 130mm howitzer of his own side in terms of caliber, was comparable to the 130mm howitzer in terms of range.

As a result, the heavy artillery battalion suffered a loss in the artillery battle between the two sides, and was unable to suppress the opponent's artillery at all. This is also one of the reasons why the three infantry regiments participating in the attack suffered heavy losses.

Rofer pondered for a while and said: "The human army on the opposite side can be said to be an elite force with very strong combat effectiveness. It is not only equipped with a large number of repeating rifles, heavy machine guns and artillery, but also possesses tenacious combat effectiveness.

Our Third Marine Division has met our opponent this time.

Suspend the attack first. Tomorrow morning, I will report the battle situation here to the commander to see what the commander means. "

In the early morning of the 27th, Longela, the commander of the Third Fleet of the Silver Wolf Empire Navy, received a telegram from Rofer, the commander of the Third Marine Division, and even wondered if the telegram was mistranslated by the telegrapher?

The Third Marine Division, known as one of the elite of the Silver Wolf Empire, was blocked by a human army.

Even overnight, it brought more than 32 losses to the 1800nd Marine Brigade of the 1rd Marine Division, almost losing the strength of an infantry regiment.

Longela asked Deputy Commander Gore in a deep voice: "Is the information we got wrong before?

Is it true that the Zhou family in Ganyang has less than 6000 people in Xiangshi Island? "

"Commander, this information has been confirmed by many parties, and there should be no mistakes."

"Then how do you explain what happened with the 32nd Marine Brigade?

Could it be that the combat power of the Zhou family army in Ganyang is already comparable to the elite troops of our Silver Wolf Empire? "

Gore shook his head, "It's really unbelievable, but judging from Rofer's telegram, the Ganyang Zhou family's army is equipped with a large number of repeating rifles, heavy machine guns and artillery. , It is indeed not weaker than the [-]rd Marine Division.

In addition, there are 10,000+ humans on Xiangshi Island, and the Zhou family's army in Ganyang can also recruit many recruits from them. "

"Is there any new news from Yerk?"

"Last night, Yerk did not allow the sortie fleet to fight overnight.

But this morning, Yerk will continue to command 10 battleships to bombard Xiangshi City and several warships of the Zhou family in the port. "

"Is it possible for the battleship commanded by Yerk to provide long-range fire support for the [-]rd Marine Division?"

"The blocking position chosen by the Zhou family's army is very ingenious. Even if the main guns of the battleship with all main guns can barely shoot the shells to that area, it is unpredictable which side of the army it will eventually fall on."

After a moment of silence, Longella said, "Send a telegram to Rofer and tell him that I don't want to hear the process, I just want to hear the result.

If he feels that there are not enough troops, he can transfer all the remaining troops of the [-]rd Marine Division on Pusa Island.

Also remind him that the number of casualties of the [-]rd Marine Division must be controlled. If it is too ugly, I can't protect him. "

Rofer, the division commander of the [-]rd Marine Division, after receiving the call back from the Commander of the [-]rd Fleet, Longella, couldn't help cursing inwardly: This fat pig calls him a brother when he collects money.

Now I have a problem, but let me solve it myself!

If I can solve it myself, what kind of telegram will I send you!

Nichka, the brigade commander of the 32nd Marine Brigade, glanced at the telegram in Rofer's hand, and then asked cautiously: "Master, what should we do next? Continue to attack?"

There was a glint of fierceness in Rofer's eyes, "Also transfer the 33rd Infantry Regiment of the 3rd Marine Brigade, and the 4 infantry regiments will attack in turn.

Break through the front positions at all costs before dark! "

When Nikka heard this, he couldn't help showing a surprised expression, "Master, didn't the commander tell us to control the number of casualties?"

Rofer curled his lips, "If you can't win, what's the point of having a small number of casualties?

Didn't the commander also say that he only wants the result, not the process! "

"Master, if there are too many casualties, will the Admiralty and the Governor's Office think about you?"

"Opinion? The Admiralty and the Governor's Palace will not have any opinion of a general who has won a victory!"

Chapter 99 Military Song

As the four infantry regiments of the 4rd Marine Division of the Silver Wolf Imperial Navy took turns attacking, the pressure on Zhou's army's line of defense was increasing.

Some companies even engaged in brutal hand-to-hand combat with the wolf clansmen who rushed up.

"Kill!" Xie Dong yelled, splitting a wolf soldier's bayonet that was stabbing him, and then took advantage of the situation to cut off the wolf soldier's head.

Even though Xie Dong was originally a dude, he was much better than Zhou Rui in some respects. At least Xie Dong had already been promoted to a low-level warrior.

In the past, the "Four Overlords of Ganyang" had an appointment with Cui Xu and his group, but Xie Dong has always been the main force of the "Four Overlords of Ganyang".

At this moment, there was a sudden gunshot, and Xie Dong turned his head to see that a wolf soldier who appeared behind him and was about to attack him was shot dead by Liu Erga with a Type 54 pistol.

Xie Dong didn't have time to say thank you to Liu Erga, so he shouted and rushed towards another wolf soldier.

The soldiers under Xie Dong's command, even the so-called "veterans", have only joined the army for a few months, and many more recruits were just ordinary people in Xiangshi City a few days ago.

Hand-to-hand combat with well-trained wolf soldiers is actually quite a disadvantage.

Fortunately, Xie Dong's company was equipped with quite a few Type 54 pistols, which played a very important role in hand-to-hand combat.

If Liu Erga hadn't killed the wolf soldier who suddenly appeared behind Xie Dong with a Type 54 pistol just now, Xie Dong might have been picked by the bayonet.

When hand-to-hand combat broke out in several positions, thousands of officers and soldiers of the Zhou family army suddenly came up from behind to support them, and quickly cooperated with the defenders to beat down the attack of the wolf tribe.

"Company Commander Xie, the next position will be managed by our 7th Battalion and 3st Battalion. Your [-]rd Battalion and [-]rd Company can go down to rest."

Tian Dacheng, the company commander of the 7th Battalion, and Xie Dong knew each other, and when he heard that his company could finally go down to rest, Xie Dong couldn't help saying sadly: "Company Commander Tian, ​​the position will be handed over to you.

More than 400 brothers have fallen on this position, and these many brothers must not be allowed to sacrifice in vain. "

Tian Dacheng said with a serious expression: "Commander Xie, don't worry, as long as there is one person alive in the 7th Battalion and 7st Company, the position will not be lost in the hands of the [-]th Battalion and [-]st Company!"

After Xie Dong led the entire company to withdraw from the position, Xie Dong counted and found that there were only 52 people left in the entire company, including veterans from the 3rd Battalion and 13rd Company, including himself, there were [-] more.

Even including those who were seriously injured and carried off the position, the company originally had 138 officers and soldiers, and less than 30 people were alive.

Supplementary recruits, more casualties.
