It's broken, and was picked up by a femme fatale

Niuxing Town is not very big, with only a few hundred houses and no tall walls.

According to the expectation of the bald Qianzong,

A battalion of the Far East Army has more than 400 men at most.
Defending on three sides, even if the enemy strengthens the frontal defense, there are only 200 people.
Six hundred vs. two hundred, the price is more than a hundred casualties.
As long as we rush into the town, even if it's one for one, we will definitely be able to crush them.
"Clap clap clap..."

The defenders began to fire in three stages.

"Boom bang bang..."

Five or six grenades landed in the middle of the charging column, causing fireworks to rise.

Many people fell down screaming.

More death squads shouted slogans to boost their courage while rushing forward desperately.
One hundred and fifty meters,

The first group of brave warriors, in less than a minute,

They rushed to the entrance of the town and swarmed in along the main street.

The bald Qianzong was very satisfied.

The commandos finally broke in.

There are still four or five hundred people, enough to deal with the close-quarter street fighting.

He put down the telescope.

He casually said to the captain of the third squadron:
"Watch both wings. If you miss a single rebel, I'll skin you alive!"

"Yes! I guarantee that not even a fly can fly out!"

Gather three thousand elite warriors and rush into the town.

They were under fire from all directions.
I stumbled across two street corners before I realized something was wrong.

No matter whether it is a residence or a shop, all doors and windows are closed.
It seemed like they were blocked from the inside, and they couldn't get in at all.
However, gunshots were heard everywhere, at the door, behind the window, and behind the wall.

They were so numerous and powerful, their formation was too dense, and they were separated by a wall, so almost every bullet hit the target.

They wanted to use a ladder to climb over the wall, but they were just sitting ducks for the firing holes on the opposite side.

Soon, the first group of brave warriors were almost killed or wounded.
Almost all the squadron leaders, garrison commanders, and platoon leaders were killed, and the corpses and wounded soldiers covered the road.
The remaining twenty or thirty soldiers huddled in a corner, firing randomly in panic.
When the second group of brave warriors rushed into the town, they experienced the same fate as the first group.
In less than five minutes, one third of the troops were killed, and the squadron leader was also dead.
Fortunately, there was a village chief who was quite cunning and hid behind his subordinates, thus saving his life.

Seeing that the situation was not good, he did not dare to rush into the town again, but ordered the capture of the houses and shops on both sides.
At the cost of 10 to 20 people, we finally occupied five or six houses and shops.

However, they had opened all the houses and shops, and they could not find even a ghost.
The village chief was so angry that he shouted, "Chase them! Kill these stinking rats!"

As a result, several team members had just drilled through the hole in the wall.

There were several crisp gunshots from the other side, and the pursuers lost their lives without knowing what was happening.
Shit, are these rebels in the next yard?
The head of the garrison immediately mobilized a dozen men to attack and assault.

But when they managed to rush to the opposite passage,

But then two... smoking grenades were thrown out from inside!
"Boom!"

The seven or eight brave warriors in the front,
He didn't even have time to make a sound before he fell into a pool of blood.

Oops!

These people are so despicable!

The headman was so angry that his lips trembled. He counted the men and found that there were less than a hundred of them...

After being silent for a long time, he gave the order in a frustrated manner: Defend on the spot and wait for reinforcements!

Regardless, both sides of the first block are temporarily under the control of the Liangjiang Army.
The third group of brave soldiers rushed into the town and were shocked by the scene before them.
I found the head of the second echelon and learned about the situation. I was a little speechless.

What the hell is this fight?
Ahead, at the corner of the second block, dozens of brave warriors were trapped.
Even though they were dozens of meters away, they didn't dare to go over to rescue...

Because no one knows how many gunmen the rebels have ambushed.
If you act rashly, you might not be able to save others, but end up getting yourself into trouble...

There was no other way, they could only fight while reporting the situation to the rear.

The bald captain was in a good mood and was happily sipping the wine in the kettle.

Hearing about the situation in the town, the "kettle" fell to the ground.
What?
These rebels blocked the streets.
Close the doors and windows, dig holes in the walls to "shoot from behind", and there are many "bombs"...

More than half of them were killed or wounded...those were the three hundred most elite warriors!
It is impossible to retreat.
After all, Commander Wu's butcher knife had already been placed on his neck.

He immediately called the one-eyed and crooked-mouthed generals to discuss the matter.
"Now...what should we do?"

After hearing this, One-Eye and Crooked Mouth also felt their scalps tingling.

For every block they took, they lost three hundred men;

To take over the entire town, wouldn't it be necessary to fill in all three thousand-man teams?
Seeing that the time limit is approaching,

The three of them racked their brains and came up with many clever ideas...

Finally, it was the crooked-mouthed commander who had an idea and came up with a perfect solution.

"Brutal action is not the solution.
I think we should ask the commander-in-chief for reinforcements.
Why not just bring in the cannons and blast the rebels out directly? "

The bald man and the one-eyed man's eyes lit up.
This is a good idea!
With cannons, these "ground rats" have nowhere to hide!
So he sent a messenger to ask Wu Ziyu for help.
Wu Ziyu's nose was crooked with anger.
Three thousand men against four hundred, with reinforcements and artillery...

It's really a rare event that will be remembered forever!
However, the general offensive to annihilate the rebels was imminent, so he had to hold his nose.

Another team of a thousand men was sent out, carrying an "Italian field gun", and hurried to Niuxing.

The cannon went up and fired at the second block, causing dust to fly, walls to fall down, and houses to collapse.
The new scarred man is Wu Ziyu's direct descendant, and his tone is very arrogant.
"Tsk, that's all!
A few hundred rebels scared us to death?

Feel your crotch and see if your eggs are still there?"

The faces of "Liangjiang Sanbao" turned green immediately.

However, a defeated general cannot talk about bravery, he can only keep his face down and look ashamed.

Too many fleas won't itch. The bald captain twitched his mouth and pointed at the town and said:

"Brother Scarface has a strong army and horses. We are certainly inferior to him. Please come in!"

The strong never bow to adversity. Scarface took the lead and said with a smile:

"I'll do it, you guys learn from me!"

He turned around and gave orders to his 1st and 2nd squadrons.
"Ten minutes to capture the second block and wipe out the rebels!"

Seeing the power of the cannon, the captain of the first and second squadrons was full of pride.

"Yes! I will never bring shame to the commander! Go!"

Four hundred men rushed forward, brandishing swords and guns.

Just three minutes after entering, there was a burst of gunfire, grenades and grenade launchers flying everywhere.

The two squadrons were immediately covered in smoke and dust, and screams, wailing, and crying were heard...

A hint of surprise flashed across Scarface's eyes.
Then, the smoke cleared, and one or two hundred grey figures retreated in panic.
"Report to the commander, the rebels are fierce, our troops are overwhelmed and more than half of them are killed or wounded..."

At this time, no more, no less, exactly ten minutes,
Scarface's scar became darker, and his chin fell to the ground and broke into eight pieces.

Suck~~
Are the rebels so awesome?

The stomach of "Liangjiang Sanbao" almost hurts from laughing.
Without investigation, you have no right to speak. As soon as you get off the car, you start yelling and yelling... It's the most annoying!

But, big brother, don't talk about the second brother.

The bald man pulled Scarface into the "Two Rivers and Four Treasures Group Chat"
"Brother! If it weren't hard to fight,

Why would we ask for reinforcements... Let's use the cannons to clear the way!"

Scarface restrained his arrogance and followed the advice.
Losing two hundred men in ten minutes is such a pain in the ass... Fire! Bomb, bomb, bomb!
"Boom boom boom!"

After dozens of shells, the second block was reduced to rubble.
When the brave warriors occupied the ruins,
However, they are faced with the "cold guns and cold artillery" from the other two adjacent blocks at any time and anywhere.
However, the entire cattle row, at least a dozen blocks,
The Italian field artillery brought a base of sixty shells, but there were only a few left.
Scarface had no choice but to bomb the neighborhood while asking Wu Ziyu for shells.
To completely occupy the town, at least three more bases are needed.

Wu Ziyu threw the lunch box away.

A small animal like Niu Xing actually needs four basic shells?
Do you know how much silver it costs to buy a cannon shell from a foreigner?
Ten British pound...how much is a human life worth?
Then again, Wu Ziyu also knew that
Scarface would never come to me to complain and ask for help unless it was absolutely necessary.
After all, they are my brothers... If their morale is low, it will be hard to lead the team in the future...

Just give it to me if you want to show off your wealth!
The battle situation in Niu Xing was at a stalemate.

Scarface's furious bombardment also caused casualties to the Far East defenders.
However, before the street fighting,
The First Battalion of the Second Regiment has been broken up into smaller units, with each combat team consisting of only three to five people.
Therefore, this round of bombardment,
Their casualties numbered around a dozen, and the medics and medical team did their best to treat them.

Zhuang Hua is still in the ancestral hall.
But I didn't stand on the roof, that would be too obvious.
If it was the enemy's gunner, he would launch a shot without anyone noticing and you would have no place to cry.

Deputy Battalion Commander Xiao Yue felt that the Italian artillery of the Liangjiang troops was too threatening.
"That cannon must be taken out!"

The third company commander Yun Fei said: "It's not easy.
These bastards parked their cannon outside the village, and there are hundreds of people guarding it!"

Second Company Commander Cheng Wan smiled and said:
"It's already afternoon. Let's launch a surprise attack at night and get the cannon back!"

It's a little after 1pm now. In another three or four hours, it will be dark.
The company commander, An Lan, shook his head.
"These Liangjiang soldiers are fairly well-trained. They will definitely take strict precautions, and it will be difficult to leave the town."

Cheng Wan had fought with them before and knew the details of the Liangjiang soldiers.

He said nonchalantly:

"What are you afraid of? They are just a bunch of paper tigers. I can lead a platoon and kill them in minutes!"

Xiao Yue kicked him:
"You haven't drunk yet, what nonsense are you talking about?

If you continue in this state, I will disqualify you from participating in the war!"

"No! Deputy Battalion Commander, I didn't mean it, I was just joking..."

"You speak without thinking, and you don't think clearly. I'm afraid what you say is not what you really think, right?"

Seeing the deputy battalion commander's serious face, Cheng Wan quickly corrected his attitude:

"Deputy Battalion Commander, I was wrong. I promise I will never underestimate the enemy again!"

Zhuang Hua nodded and said:
“The commander-in-chief did say that the enemy is a paper tiger!

However, his original intention was to "strategically despise the enemy".
But in terms of specific tactics, he repeatedly emphasized: We must take the enemy seriously!

If we treat the Liangjiang soldiers as paper tigers, we will suffer losses and even die...

You three are the commanders, and every soldier is your father or mother, raising you with great difficulty for 10 to 20 years.
If he died or became disabled so easily, how are you going to explain to his family when you return?"

The three company commanders remained silent.
Xiao Yue added,
"The battalion commander is right.

Moreover, the commander-in-chief also said,

Who dares to take the lives of soldiers?
Don't take it seriously, it doesn't matter,
He is the sinner of the common people!

This sentence is from the commander-in-chief to all of you,
Remember what every Far East Army officer said? "

The three company commanders were shocked and answered in unison:

"Yes!"

At this time, a sentry reported that several trucks of artillery shells were being transported from the opposite side.

As soon as the words fell, the Italian cannons began to explode again.
When the cannon is fired, a fortune of gold is won.

Wu Ziyu only gave two basic shells and told Scarface to use them sparingly.

After getting the shells, Scarface’s confidence and strength surged in his heart again!

"Blow up blocks three and four for me!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang..."

A sharp whistle cuts through the air.

It smashed into houses and shops, with shrapnel and flames, raging wildly...

The Far East defenders were unable to resist and hurriedly evacuated two blocks.

In this way, the Liangjiang soldiers easily controlled the four blocks in the southern part of Niuhang, occupying more than 20% to 30% of the territory.

It is two blocks away from the ancestral hall in the core of the town.
Scarface Qianzong's goal is very clear, first occupy the "Tianyuan" position, then it will be easier to fight.

In the face of absolute firepower, the Far East Army is nothing!

At this time, the regiment was besieged by the main force of the Liangjiang Prefecture troops, and both sides suffered heavy losses.
The two sides of the Second Regiment were also besieged by a large number of enemy troops, and they had no time to rescue Niu Xing's First Battalion.

Not only that, in order to seize this strategic location,
Wu Ziyu also arranged two sniper teams to prepare to kill rabbits and surround the point to provide reinforcements.
Lu Yuan looked at the overall situation and, based on the advice of the General Staff,

He personally gave orders to the first and second regiments to hold their ground.

Especially the troops defending Niuxing Town, they must "fight to the end without giving up an inch"!
Although the first and second groups are currently unable to create clones,
After a short break,
The vanguard of the 356th Regiment is getting closer and closer. If things go well, they will arrive tonight.

Although the Liangjiang Army cut off the communication between the First and Second Regiments,

But before the battle begins,

Lu Yuan’s order to the two regiment commanders was: If attacked, hold on for two days.

why?
Because only in this way can we buy more time for military mobilization.

In "Wind, Forest and Mountain Fire",

Standing still like a mountain is the highest level of defense.
Overall, the first and second groups did a good job.

After firing dozens of artillery shells, Block No. 3 marked by the Liangjiang soldiers was also abandoned by the Far East defenders.

At this time, Liangjiang Sibao became a little excited.
If we move forward and capture Block No. 5, the ancestral hall will be exposed to the swords of the commandos.

At this time, the number of Liangjiang soldiers entering Niuxing Town had exceeded a thousand.

They reversed their decline and their morale was high.

They all headed towards the ancestral hall, pointing at the brightly colored military flag flying high.
Just get close, bomb and occupy.
The Far East rebels had almost no room for maneuver and thus won the battle.

But, ideals are full of hope, but reality is very hard...

Just as the Italian artillery was bombarding Block 5, Zhuang Hua unexpectedly launched a counterattack.

The captain of the first company, An Lan, raided the No. 1 block occupied by the enemy and blocked the opening.

Two or three consecutive combos are interspersed left and right.
Divide the enemy forces in the town into two and annihilate them one by one.

Xiao Yue touched his chin and asked worriedly:

"There are thousands of them. Isn't it a bit risky to do this?"

Zhuang Hua laughed and replied:
"Haha, that's true. Street fighting is always risky.
But I believe that the soldiers are more familiar with street fighting and will definitely defeat the enemy!"

The three company commanders were all very angry, and now they finally had a chance to fight.

"Don't worry, Battalion Commander. Our company will never embarrass you!"

"Everyone in our Second Company is not a coward!"

"The Third Company has nothing else to do but one thing: Complete the mission resolutely!"

Xiao Yue asked again: "So, we should just give up the two wings?"

Zhuang Hua nodded and said:

“If people survive and land is lost, both people and land will be lost!

Let them all come in, and their cannons will be useless!"

Xiao Yue thought about it and agreed to this combat operation.

When facing superior forces, you must not fight according to the opponent's thinking.
Zhuang Hua's plan, although a bit risky,

But, perhaps the surprise attack can disrupt the enemy's plans and deployments.

The five officers agreed.
The counterattack officially begins... (End of this chapter)
