African Nationhood

On August 8, more than ten days had been spent outside Vienna. Nanhua's defense line advanced 2 kilometers and more trenches were dug.

The two sides engaged in fierce collisions in various aspects such as sniping, artillery attacks, aerial combat, and sneak attacks.

Generally speaking, Nanhua Army has the upper hand.

In terms of sniping, both sides were similar, with similar numbers of casualties, both around 300.

As for the artillery battle, it was because Zheng Tong's troops cut off the railway transportation lines between the important northern towns of Prague and Vienna four days ago, and invaded Prague two days ago and captured the Skoda Arsenal.

Without the supplies from this arsenal, Vienna's ammunition supply was unsustainable, the frequency of artillery bombardments dropped significantly, and the South China Army finally won the artillery attack.

Thanks to the obvious advantage of Nanhua's aircraft, the Nanhua Expeditionary Force controlled the air superiority in this battle.

The German planes did not dare to take off, and even their proud Zeppelin airships became decorations.

The German Zeppelin airship was burned to ashes by French arson rockets in front of the British and French forces.

Nanhua has special rockets on the plane. Once encountered, a few rockets can make the airship explode in the air and fall.

800 rockets soared into the sky and exploded when they hit the ground.

After receiving permission, Shi Honglian immediately ordered the military police to prepare. This time he would continue to set off "fireworks" outside Vienna.

The German and Austrian allied forces huddled in the trenches and did not dare to show their heads. Nanhua's armored vehicle troops moved decisively, and the assault troops followed the armored vehicles to attack.

And Nanhua's night battle training was not in vain. After more than ten days, the two sides conducted more than 4458 sneak attacks. Nanhua killed 1241 Austro-Hungarian troops and suffered casualties.

Qu Sanggan agreed to the request of the three Shi Honglian people, asking them to kill as many enemies as possible and control the situation in Austria.

……

Large-caliber artillery shells are low in unit price and have reliable accuracy, making them much more reliable than this rocket.

Then came the bombing show of Nanhua aircraft. The artillery's 105mm howitzers and 120mm field guns also opened fire in unison, blowing up the positions of the German and Austrian allied forces and causing chaos.

With this cost, it is better to spend the money on large-caliber artillery.

In the previous battle in Budapest, Britain and France had thought about introducing this kind of weapon, but they heard that a launch vehicle cost 8 pounds and a rocket cost 100 pounds. This price made them give up the idea.

The entire artillery position was covered with black smoke, and the artillerymen were howling and running around, not daring to stay on the position. Nanhua's rockets were powerful, but had poor accuracy, and were abandoned by the European powers.

In addition, both assault troops and armored troops need to be prepared in advance.
After all departments were ready, at 8 a.m. on August 3, more than 5 rockets flew across the sky with a scream and a long flame tail toward the artillery positions of the German-Austrian Allied Forces.

Some even fell to the edge of the city of Vienna, causing fires.

After so many days of consumption, Shi Honglian felt that the vigor of the German and Austrian forces on the opposite side had been almost worn away, and it was time to launch a general attack.

A vehicle can fire 8 rockets at a time. If the quantity is small, the effect will not be seen at all. The cost of 100 rockets for 800 vehicles is too high.

As for the sneak attack operations, the two sides went back and forth. The Nanhua Army had a greater chance of winning, mainly because Nanhua's individual soldier equipment was more luxurious, and special warfare equipment such as flash bombs and smoke bombs were more abundant than the German army.

The launch vehicle was a one-time expense and I gritted my teeth and bought it, but I couldn't afford the rocket.

After discussing with his colleagues Shi Quan'an and Hong Haifeng, he made a request to Commander Qu Sangqian.

With this kind of rocket-bashing fighting method, only Nan Hua can afford it.

Today, the city of Vienna is in a state of disarray, and the positions of the German-Austrian Allied Forces are also in devastation.

The mushroom cloud that erupted after the rocket landed directly destroyed the artillery positions of the German and Austrian Allied Forces.

……

"Da da~~"

The German-Austrian Allied Forces' MG08 machine gun opened fire, making a clanging sound on the armored vehicle.

Qin Wang, the commander and artilleryman sitting in the armored vehicle, used the periscope in front of the vehicle to pinpoint the firing point of the heavy machine gun attacking his side, then took a long 47-caliber explosive shell and opened the breech of the gun, and stuffed the shell.

The next step is to shake the handle urgently, adjust the muzzle, and use the optical sight at the muzzle to confirm that the adjustment is in place. He pulled the cannon rope directly, "Let's go!"

"boom."

The car body shook, and smoke filled the armored car body. Qin Wang was choked by the smoke and coughed, but he was used to it.

Holding back the discomfort in my throat, I leaned over to observe through the periscope.
The enemy's firepower point misfired, he hey, continued to observe the enemy's firepower point in front, waiting for the next launch.

……

An Yiguo held a semi-automatic rifle and followed the armored vehicle carefully with his waist crotched. Behind him were more than 60 brothers. Everyone was holding their breath, waiting for the confrontation with the German devils.

"Da da~"

An Yiguo immediately dodged behind the armored vehicle. The clicking sound in his ears was replaced by the clanking of the armored vehicle. He spat, "Go and get a few people to destroy the enemy's firepower point for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a squad leader immediately answered, "Class 1, Platoon , follow me."

After saying that, the young squad leader took his soldiers and left.

An Yiguo watched his soldiers leave, and then turned his attention again to the trench he was about to pass.

There are often enemies hiding in the trenches, so it depends on who can react faster.

Nanhua's semi-automatic rifles, submachine guns and flamethrowers are the most convenient to deal with such enemies, while the Germans only have hand grenades in addition to Mauser rifles. Their individual equipment is too far behind and they are no match for Nanhua.

"Dong Dong~"

After the explosion in the distance, the sound of machine guns stopped. It seemed that his soldiers were finished.

The semi-automatic rifle in An Yiguo's hand had already completed a trench clearing. All the bullets in the rifle in his hand were emptied, and more than a dozen Japanese were eliminated in the trench.

An Yiguo quickly changed the magazine, and then continued to move forward.

……

"Battalion Commander, be careful!"

Amidst the fierce shouts, a soldier rushed over and directly knocked down the enemy who was trying to sneak attack.

The two men fell in the trench and fought fiercely. Gu Dazhen looked out of the corner of his eye and realized that his own soldiers had already fallen into a disadvantage during the struggle because they were too small.

He shouted loudly, used more force on his hands to swing away the enemy on the opposite side, and then continued to stab at the enemy with his bayonet.

"clang clang"

The enemy tried hard to block several times, but in the end Gu Dazhen caught the opportunity and stabbed him in the stomach.

His stomach was ripped open directly by the bayonet, and scarlet blood and intestines fell from the abdominal cavity with a crash.

Gu Dazhen clearly felt that the opponent's strength was weakening. He fiercely drew his bayonet, ignoring the enemy who had lost his fighting power, and then turned around to rescue the young soldier.

The two men were fighting at a critical moment. Gu Dazhen raised his bayonet and stabbed.

"Pfft"

The tip of the bayonet penetrated directly into the enemy's chest, and hot blood fell directly on the face of the young soldier who was pressed below.

Gu Da summoned up all his strength to stab upwards, and the enemy on the tip of the bayonet was directly pushed aside by him. The young soldier below had lost strength and was no longer in danger. He suddenly fell sideways on the ground and vomited violently.

Gu Dazhen looked at his men, smiled, and then continued running towards another enemy.

The young soldier who vomited on the ground quickly got up, found his rifle from the side, checked it and continued to follow the battalion commander.

The sun has risen, but this land is already soaked in blood... (End of this chapter)
