Chapter 522 Chapter 522 What are you waiting for
Sometimes things are so strange. In the most noisy area of ​​Bunas Yucheng North Ridge, several 100,000 people have already begun to move, but in fact no one is ready to fight here.

But on the border between Tang and Qi, where the war was really being prepared, the silence was terrifying.All trade ports have been closed, envoys between the two countries have been recalled, and everything seems to have come to a standstill.

On both sides of the boundary markers, the two sides dispatched troops and generals, and they were already looking like they would never stop. At this point in the matter, even if the Qi State didn't want to fight, it had to continue the war.

No one would dislike their trenches being too deep and complicated before the war came, and no one would dislike their ammunition reserves too much.

Qi State, in a hidden position, a group of soldiers are carrying boxes of bullets. The commanders have already smelled the smell of war, so the bullets have already begun to find ways to distribute to the soldiers on the front line.

These ammunition must be stockpiled in well-camouflaged, concealed and strong fortifications on the position.

The Qi State soldiers wearing soft hats are carrying Cyric 1 bolt-action rifles on their backs and guarding the distance. In front of them is a barbed wire fence, and a little bit of mound on the other side of the border can be seen in the past.

Compared with them, it seemed that the soldiers of the Tang Kingdom were not prepared for war at all, and they could not see the thin barbed wire fences on the opposite side, nor could they see the laborers digging trenches.

Although the commanders warned everyone over and over again that the enemy's fortifications might be behind the mound, no one wanted to believe such nonsense.

If the opponent builds a defense line, how can the commanding height of the mound not be used?At least one company of soldiers should be deployed here, right?At least there must be three trenches and one trench in front, right?

But there was nothing on Tang Jun's side, only some patrolling Tang Jun soldiers passing by regularly - they wore steel helmets and gray-green military uniforms, and hurried past with bags and weapons on their backs.

Logically speaking, today is probably still a peaceful day with no waves.Everyone still dug trenches, repaired fortifications, ate some military rations that no dog would eat, and turned off the lights to rest at night.

But on such a peaceful day, there was a sudden disturbance—the loudspeaker placed on the battlefield for broadcasting suddenly sounded, and a news that surprised everyone began to reverberate in the battlefield.

"The enemy is firing! Fight back! Fight back!" The loudspeaker's voice continued to blare along with the interfering sounds, and then the sound of machine gun fire really sounded on the position not far away.

The battalion commander rushed out of his command bunker angrily without even putting on his pants, and asked loudly what happened.

But no one knows what happened, no one knows what happened.Everyone just heard the sound of machine guns firing, and the news of the outbreak of war echoing from the loudspeakers.

"Who the hell ordered the fire? Who is it!" The battalion commander who heard the gunshots not far away finally put on his pants at this time, and then rushed to the position not far away aggressively with his guards.

That was the position of the Second Battalion next door. Although it was not under his jurisdiction, it obviously didn't matter if he went over to see what happened.

But he had just taken two steps when the sound of howling shells scared him so much that he shrank his neck and stopped cursing.

He could tell that it was the sound of the Cyric 130mm caliber howitzer deployed on the front line, and it was the sound of flying from Qi State to Tang State!
"What's going on... Didn't you just finish emphasizing it yesterday, don't shoot the first shot?" The battalion commander was a little confused, and he didn't know what to do.

He has been in a dazed state until now, and he himself doesn't know what happened.Why did someone shoot, and why did the artillery behind them start shelling inexplicably?

Does the head know?Does the teacher know?Commander... Commander definitely doesn't know, this guy is probably in the concubine's bed in the city behind and hasn't gotten up yet...

"It's not right! Something is not right..." He was keenly aware that this was completely different from the spirit explained in the previous meeting, and there must be something wrong with it.

But as a small battalion commander like him, how could he know what the problem was?He could only stand there blankly, watching the war in front of him expand little by little.

At the very beginning, it was a 130mm howitzer, followed by a 130mm howitzer company. Everyone didn't know what happened, so they started their respective performances.

The machine guns of the next-door battalion just stopped firing, but then sporadic gunfire came over.Immediately afterwards, it seemed that a bullet flew from the opposite side, and someone fired back at the position where the battalion commander of the Qi army was located.

A war seems to be breaking out, if not, how could it suddenly become so lively?

Soon a signal soldier passed by, and he came to ask if there was any Tang army attack here.Some people said they heard the gunshots from the other side, while others said they didn't. In short, there were all kinds of opinions. Even the battalion commander himself wasn't sure if he heard the sound of the other side's firing.

Because until now, it seems that the Tang army has not carried out effective artillery fire, and can only hear the cannons of the Qi army roaring from time to time.

This signal soldier hadn't left yet, but another new signal soldier arrived. He was here to convey the order, ordering all the troops to prepare for battle, and if the Tang army attacked, they would resolutely fight back.

The voice in the loudspeaker had changed, and it began to broadcast the news of the Tang army's attack in a loop. It said that the Tang army was attacking a position more than ten kilometers away, so this side fired back.

Soon someone discovered that although his side was fighting in full swing, Tang Jun's side didn't seem to have any decent counterattacks.

Originally, everyone was guessing that behind the mound on the other side of the border must be the defensive position of the Tang army, but now it seems that this is not the case.

The artillery fire just now basically hit the other side of the mound, but Tang Jun was obviously not hurt, otherwise it would be impossible to remain silent until now.

The gunshots that lasted for more than two hours, as well as the sparse sound of cannons, were almost all fought by the Qi army, and it seemed that the Tang army did not exist at all.

At this moment, even the soldier who had sworn at first that he heard the gunfire of the Tang army's counterattack was not sure if he really saw the incoming bullet hitting the front of the position.

Up to now, no one knows whether it was Tang Jun who fired first from their side, or Tang Jun made the first move.Everyone was at a loss, followed by a series of dumbfounding operations.

Tang State issued a statement condemning Qi State for causing disturbances on the border, invading Tang State territory, and attacking Tang Army patrols.

Qi Guo immediately returned his color, accusing Tang Jun of taking the lead in attacking his defensive positions and destroying regional peace and stability.

As if everything was taken for granted, Tang State declared war on Qi State, and Qi State declared war on Tang State a few minutes later.The two sides didn't even seem to be in the mood to worry about who fired the first shot first, and they had a showdown without even going through the process.

The development of the matter to this point seems to be within the scope of everyone's understanding, but what happened next is a bit unclear.

After the two sides declared war, the border fell silent: Qi State did not continue to waste shells on Tang Jun, but Tang Jun did not launch follow-up actions.

Because the Qi army had no way to break through, they could only stand on the ground and wait for the Tang army's attack. After all, their previous plan was to defend.

After all, the impression that Tang Jun left on Cyric before was that his tactics were unpredictable, flexible and sharp, so the military advisory group on Cyric's side drew up tactics for the generals of the Qi army to stick to their positions.

Moreover, the experience left over from the last war shows that the defensive side has an advantage no matter what, and the offensive side is prone to suffer losses even if it invests in new weapons.Under this major premise, it is understandable that the Qi army is not willing to take the lead in launching an attack if it sticks to its position.

As for the Tang army, because Tang Mo was not yet fully prepared, his follow-up troops were still gathering along the railway line, waiting for the follow-up transportation.

These newly formed troops were used to fill the defense line. In addition, Tang Mo's air force had not yet arrived in the theater and needed a few days of rest and adjustment, so he was not in a hurry to launch an attack.

The day after Tang declared war on Qi, the Great China Empire condemned Tang for its arrogance, and then Chu also condemned Tang.

Amidst the hysterical condemnation of these countries, the B-17 bomber unit of the Tang Army arrived at the front line and began to rest and maintain.

Another day later, the two newly formed infantry divisions arrived at the front line, and the follow-up heavy weapons and equipment began to be put in place one after another.

In the afternoon of this day, the Lions Empire announced that it would condemn the Datang Group for its support of the Tang Kingdom, and demanded that the Datang Group stop its arms trade with the Datang Kingdom.

Subsequently, Dorn and Suzas also called Datang Group, hoping that Datang Group could reconsider the relationship with Datang Kingdom, and at the same time emphasized that if Datang Group insisted on going its own way, it would affect the relationship between the two countries and Datang Group. business cooperation.

On the fourth day after the declaration of war between Tang and Qi, the battlefield was still calm. This silent war, which opened the eyes of the whole world, seemed to make everyone feel that the once invincible Datang security force also But that's all.

On the morning of the fifth day, when the first ray of sunlight hit the land, Tang Mo received a telegram from Tiger and Redman, claiming that he was ready to attack.

"Order Tiger and Redman to start attacking...don't let our enemies wait for too long. It's been so long, they seem to have forgotten that Datang...haven't been defeated yet!" Putting down the message paper, Tang Mo said to himself in a voice that no one could hear: "I'm waiting for the tanks and planes to arrive... What are you waiting for, Jiang Xian?"
