The end of the military era

After speaking, Liu Erga took another puff of cigarette, but this time Liu Erga didn't choke on the smoke.

Xie Dong also showed a sad look on his face, "We are facing an army group of the Silver Wolf Empire after all, and sacrifices are inevitable.

What is worthy of pride is that the casualty ratio of our battalion exceeded 80.00%, but there was not a single deserter. The brothers are all doing well. "

Liu Erga's eye circles were already red, "Brothers are indeed doing well.

Yesterday morning, a group of wolf soldiers rushed to the battlefield. The brothers couldn't fight those wolf soldiers with bayonets. Many brothers rushed to the wolf soldiers with grenades, and they frightened the remaining wolf soldiers. escaped from the position.

My guard also rushed up with a few grenades strapped to him. That silly boy was just now, hard-working, and went to school, but unfortunately he was gone. "

Xie Dong patted Liu Erga on the shoulder, "Erga, don't think too much.

After all, the brothers died on the battlefield against the invasion of the Silver Wolf Empire, so it was a worthy death! "

"By the way, how is Hei Wa?"

Song Heiwa, the leader of the guard platoon, was seriously injured by a shell during the fierce battle and was carried off the position.

"Heiwa was seriously injured and is still unconscious.

But the doctor said that he was able to save his life, and that he was lucky to have no missing arms or legs. "

When Liu Erga heard that Song Heiwa was still alive, he finally had a smile on his face, "Battle Commander, I have made an agreement with Heiwa.

When I return to Ganyang City and go to Wanhualou to be cool, I will be counted as Heiwa! "

"No problem. When I return to Ganyang City, I will take you two bumpkins to see the world!"

Then Xie Dong changed his voice, "Erga, the regiment asked us to temporarily merge the third battalion and the fourth battalion into one reinforced battalion. The battalion commander, deputy battalion commander, and several company-level officers on the fourth battalion side all died. So I am the battalion commander of this reinforced battalion.

I am going to let you temporarily serve as the deputy battalion commander and the commander of the second company.

We must set up this reinforced battalion as soon as possible. With the current level of fierce offensive and defensive battles, our reinforced battalion may soon need to go up again. "

Liu Erga knew that the deputy battalion commander and other company-level officers of the third battalion had also died. Now, apart from the battalion commander Xie Dong, Liu Erga was the only company-level officer left in the third battalion.

"Okay, I'll listen to the battalion commander.

Battalion Commander, how many fighters are left in the Fourth Battalion? "

"There are 57 left in the fourth battalion, and 66 left in our third battalion. In addition, the regiment will strengthen the battalion tomorrow and allocate 500 recruits."

The joint headquarters of the three brigades of the Zhou family army was located in a cave in a mountain depression in the central area of ​​Xiangshi Island.

At around 30 o'clock on the evening of the 10th, Ma Tiezhu, the commander of the No.20 Second Independent Brigade, said: "It seems that the enemy will not attack again tonight."

Wang Biao, commander of the second infantry brigade of the garrison division, yawned and said, "That can't be careless. Let the troops in the first positions on the eastern and western fronts still have to strengthen their vigilance tonight to guard against the enemy's sneak attack."

At this time Li Shengjun, commander of the Xiangshi Garrison Brigade, said to Wang Biao: "Biaozi, you should sleep for a while.

You haven't closed your eyes for three days. You don't know how long this battle will last. You can't do it all the time. We have to be prepared for a protracted war. "

Wang Biao nodded, "I really need to sleep, my eyelids are fighting now.

By the way, how many recruits have been recruited from the people of Xiangshi Island? "

Li Shengjun said: "At present, more than 2 recruits have been recruited, and almost all males above and below the age of 45 have been recruited as recruits.

In addition, some officers and soldiers were sent to start military training for women, old people and young people among the common people.

When necessary, these women, old people and young people will become supplementary soldiers for our three brigades! "

Ma Tiezhu then said with a smile: "If we look at the current battle situation, there is only the No.14 Army of the Silver Wolf Empire, and we won't be able to send women, children, and the elderly to the battlefield."

Wang Biao sighed, "There is only one No.14 Army of the Silver Wolf Empire, so I'm not worried.

In the past few days, the combined casualties of our three brigades are less than 6000, which should be much less than the No.14 Army of the Silver Wolf Empire that attacked, and we can completely consume this No.14 Army.

The problem is that the Silver Wolf Empire does not only have this army group, and Xiangshi Island is the nearest port to the Silver Wolf Empire's mainland, and it only takes half a month by boat. "

Ma Tiezhu patted Wang Biao on the back, "Biaozi, I think you can't sleep because you worry too much.

Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover, even if the Silver Wolf Empire sends another group army or several groups of troops to land on Xiangshi Island, so what?

If you want to eat our three brigades, you have to be prepared to lose your teeth! "

Li Shengjun followed up and said, "I think you, Biaozi, are thinking too much.

Don't forget, the major general has added a lot of cards to the coastal defense fleet. If the coastal defense fleet can seize the opportunity, it can severely damage the naval fleet in the Silver Wolf Empire Expeditionary Force. Maybe the No.14 Army has to run away . "

In the middle of the night on the 30th, Zhou Rui had been watching the battle report from Xiangshidao, and did not sleep after midnight.

And just after midnight, the lottery system gave Zhou Rui a two-star lottery card for March.

After Zhou Rui used this two-star lottery card, he got two more battleships.

The British Huza-class battleship has a full load displacement of 25870 tons and a top speed of 21 knots.

装备了5座双联装45倍口径343毫米主炮，16门五十倍口径102毫米副炮，3具533毫米鱼雷发射管。

舷侧装甲带178毫米到305毫米，主甲板装甲44毫米到102毫米，主炮塔装甲279毫米，舰员满额为752人。

It is obvious that these two British Toza-class battleships are also all-main-gun battleships. The caliber of their main guns is comparable to the latest Fire Pigeon-class full-main-gun battleship of the Silver Wolf Imperial Navy.

If the coastal defense fleet's main force on Crescent Island can add these two Huza-class battleships with full main guns, then the chances of winning against the expeditionary force of the Silver Wolf Empire will increase.

Now in Jingsheng Port, there are the only two remaining large armored cruisers Ping Hai and An Hai in the second formation of the Coastal Defense Fleet, and the light cruiser Fei Rong of the special mixed formation.

There are also six ironclad battleships of the fourth formation, Zhenjia, Zhenyi, Zhenc, Zhending, Zhenwu and Zhenji.

As well as the armored battleships General, Mengjiang, and Jin Yuanbao of the sixth formation, the light cruisers Shuguang and Purple Eagle, and the offshore gunboats Jinlong and Yinlong.

So at this time in Jingsheng City, there is no shortage of naval officers and soldiers.

Zhou Rui felt that he could extract the two British Huza-class battleships with full main guns, deploy naval officers and soldiers from those warships gathered in Jingsheng Port, and fully staff the two British Huza-class battleships with full main guns.

Then let the two British Huza-class battleships with full main guns rush to Crescent Island by themselves to join the main force of the coastal defense fleet.

Moreover, Zhou Rui had already prepared to let Pinghai, Anhai and Feirong, these three relatively new troops, leave Jingsheng Port.

After all, with the combat effectiveness of these warships in Jingsheng Port, there is no way to compete with the navy of the Silver Wolf Empire.

Once the expeditionary force of the Silver Wolf Empire attacked Jingsheng City, Zhou Rui could only let all the warships in Jingsheng Port rush to the shallows and use them as fixed forts.

With the performance of Pinghai, Anhai and Feirong, it is a bit wasteful to serve as fixed forts.

Now that there are two more battleships with full main guns, five warships can form a temporary fleet and rush to Crescent Island together.
