Chapter five hundred and fiftieth chapters hope in vain

.    Chapter 556: Hope is lost

"You can't stop, you must maintain sufficient formation and impact strength!" Crower stood in front of the team and shouted loudly, encouraging the pieced together troops to continuously attack the Chinese defense line.

Before Craul led everyone to attack, he chose to quietly sneak into the front of the Chinese position 700 meters, and waited for the large troops attacking the main position to launch an attack before launching an attack.

In terms of grasping time and distance, it should be quite good. The Chinese people's attention is attracted by the large offensive forces in front of the main position. However, the support and even defensive forces that can be provided are somewhat insufficient for these defense lines far away from the main battlefield.

These are one of the main reasons why Crower chose this place as a breakthrough point. More importantly, it is not suitable for blocks of defense, but belongs to an enclave in a Gaole defense zone.

It has to be said that although the military rank is not high, Craul has the talent to become an excellent commander, has an extremely keen sense of touch and perception in military struggles, and can see the enemy's weaknesses at a glance and use them.

Due to the terrain, this defense zone only used a high terrain to condescend to block the passage of the Australian and American coalition forces, and did not form layers of mutual support fire points and defense lines like other main positions.

Judging from the difficulty of the attack alone, this is indeed a good breakthrough.

It was just that Crowel overestimated the combat quality of the Australian and American coalition forces, especially the American soldiers. Even though the members of the entire team wanted to return to their hometown, they were slow to take one step and three steps when attacking the Japanese devil positions that could only shoot alone. After firing a large amount of ammunition, the American soldiers who waited for the other party to advance without ammunition now do not have enough basic ammunition.

The usual practice of using a large amount of ammunition to kill the opponent or even to kill the opponent by luck is simply not working. I just launched the first round of attacks, but before I could advance three hundred meters, I was suppressed by the Chinese machine guns and rifles and retreated.

"Clauer, we can't rush over without the cover of tanks or armored vehicles! The Chinese machine guns are quite terrifying, and we can't even lift our heads!"

A sergeant ran to Corrower in a dusty face. In the battle just now, the Chinese machine guns gave a deep impression. The powerful torrent ii machine guns made a sound like the whimpering sound when tearing apart the oil cloth, and the whistling sound of the whistling sound of flying over the heads of the American soldiers when they tear the air through the heads of the American soldiers, making it impossible for them to stand up and move forward.

Just like the name of this machine gun, the torrent formed by bullets could not even be able to fly over safely in front of it.

"If you can't lift it, you will climb over, and you will have to climb over for me!"

Crowel looked anxiously at the soldiers in front who were lying on the ground without moving. It was useless to lie down like this and could only allow the Chinese machine guns to continue to fire.

Looking behind me, because I was worried that the engine sound would expose the target too early, the only motor vehicles were slowly catching up from behind.

Crowel looked at the sky again, and there was a bright color on the edge of the sky. He knew that if he didn't rush up and snatch it with the Chinese, then the Chinese air force would feel that even if you drilled into the soil, you would not be able to reach the Chinese bomb!

"Everyone, don't stop moving forward. Even if you crawl, you have to climb forward. Stay here and wait for death. If you want to go home, follow me!" Seeing that the situation was really bad, Crower couldn't help but be anxious. He threw down the last load on his body and crawled forward with a few of his closest fellow villagers and friends around him.

Crowel was very leader in doing this. Seeing Crowel crawling forward with people, many American soldiers who were still hesitating or fearing continued to swing their bodies and limbs again, and although they were slow, they were approaching the front one foot.

Crower's concerns were correct. Although it was not dawn yet, at the airport behind China, fighter jets had begun to enter the runway and start to take off the ground in turn under the command of the tower. A large amount of fuel and bombs were hung under the belly and under the wings.

Since the Chinese Air Force has firmly grasped air supremacy, all kinds of fighter jets can carry more bombs and ground attack weapons to concentrate on attacking the enemy on the ground, this is definitely not good news for the Australian and American coalition forces.

Just as Crower and a group of pieces of scattered soldiers crawled over to the defensive position ahead, a sudden sound of shelling suddenly came from the rear of the position, which was in the south towards Adelaide.

Then, waves of shells exploded on this unknown small high ground.

"Brothers! It was the reinforcements from Adelaide! General Patton did not forget us. He sent reinforcements to save us! Work harder, and we can join us and go home after breaking through here!"

The sudden shelling was like a powerful shot of a cardiogenic agent, which excited the attacking American soldiers. Even though they had not been able to leave here, everyone seemed to feel as excited and exciting as having one foot stepped into the threshold of their homes.

Although the bullets flying above the head still couldn't make people stand up and speed up the attack, everyone seemed to have crawled much faster under the stimulation of this excited news.

The troops called Erqiqi Highland actually only have two squads of soldiers from the Third Battalion. In addition, there are two squads of soldiers from the kitchen squad, the regiment headquarters' automobile company and other non-combat units. That is, a platoon of troops defended here.

From the perspective of military strength, there is indeed a little less here, but from the perspective of defense, there is indeed no need to deploy more military strength on this hill.

Because the mountain is really small and lacks enough space to deploy more troops to enter, there are too many people placed. If the opponent has artillery and a shelling fires to cover it, the loss will be too great for the troops.

However, placing such a small amount of troops does not mean that the place Americans could think of using was not noticed by the commander of the assault regiment. Since the capture of Gaole, everyone, especially Chen Lixin, has put forward opinions and warnings here to pay special attention to this place.

This is exactly the opposite of the main defense area of ​​Galle. This is a place that is easy to attack and difficult to defend. If the Australian and American coalition forces concentrate their troops and equipment and concentrate a little on the attack, it will be difficult to defend here.

Therefore, it is precisely because of this that although the assault regiment placed its main combat forces on the main defense points of the highway and railways, the assault regiment still had a hand on the Erqiqi Highland. As soon as it was attacked, the defenders defending the Erqiqi Highland immediately notified the regiment headquarters.

"The latest situation is that the Erqiqi Highland is attacked on both sides, and the form is very critical. The troops coming from the north are basically infantry, and they can defend them before. However, from the south are the main forces of the First Armored Mechanization Division of the United States, including tanks, artillery, and armored vehicles. They were being bombarded during the communication just now. The situation is very serious. Be mentally prepared and combat preparation!"

On the temporary apron of the school court in Gole, a lieutenant ran over to explain the latest changes to the soldiers who were boarding the plane quickly.

"Don't worry, we have received it. The soldiers of the Guards Division are mentally prepared and combat ready at any time!"

In the central cockpit of the helicopter, a veteran of the main division pointed to the earplug communicator in his ears, indicating that the latest situation mentioned by the lieutenant just now had been quickly conveyed to all the first batch of reinforcements through the individual communication system of the main division.

When other troops and even the main combat units simply delegated slightly portable communication equipment such as walkie-talkies to platoon-level units, the troops of the main division have begun to use regional small individual communication systems.

Under the lieutenant's surprised and envious gaze, the helicopter quickly left the ground one by one, and while watching, it left the apron and flew towards the Erqiqi Highland.

In the temporary command center of the assault regiment, there was also a man staring at these helicopter groups that took off, and he was Mo Xiong, the commander of the assault regiment.

Although Mo Xiong was preparing to send four of the most powerful troops out to fight at the beginning, in the end, the main division did not choose to go out to fight, but chose to stand by in Gaole to put out the fire. Many people were quite surprised at the time, but in the end Mo Xiong's old commander, Lu Xincheng, the former coach of the special forces, told him the answer.

"Kurch, for the main force, one can be used by three people. For this reason, we prefer to go to the most dangerous and urgent places that need us. For the Erqiqi Highland, the veterans among us can see its importance and danger at a glance, so we decided to choose here."

"I also believe that the other party will not be blind, but did not see the importance and Yigong of the Erqiqi Highland. Although our battalion does not have many troops, if it performs well, no one can pass through the place we defend!"

When Mo Xiong asked whether it was too extravagant and wasteful to use the main division of a battalion to defend, Lu Xincheng smiled and said: "People who can accurately judge the most suitable escape route need to have a calm and smart mind. The troops composed of these people are the elite among the elites. And our main division is the elite of the opponent!"

At the end of the conversation, Lu Xincheng patted Mo Xiong on the shoulder meaningfully and told him: "I know that you let us freely choose the combat mission to send us veterans to other places to bully the rookies of the Australian and American coalition forces.

"It's just that we, the people of us, have handed over our youthful years to the army in this life. In the past ten years of the army, we have no other survival skills in society except killing people."

"For us, the most severe challenge at any time is the meaning of our existence! And the country sends us veterans here, not to let us come for tourism!"

The sky gradually became brighter. With the help of the light, Crower finally saw the Chinese position layout on the Erqiqi Highland. The time was very short, and the fortifications built were a little rough and simple, but each firepower point was distributed quite effectively.

Not only can they provide fire support to each other, but they can also quickly transfer positions after shooting for a period of time to avoid being shot and killed in an exposed position for a long time.

It can be seen that being able to set up such a position within a period of time not only requires solid local work, but also most of the time it is a veteran in terms of experience.

Seeing this, Crower also understood the reason why he couldn't attack just now. Many of the defenders here were veterans. Not only were the firepower fierce, but the guns were accurate. The bullets that were released were basically aimed at people. Even if they couldn't hit people, they could try their best to hit the target.

The shooting technique is not only accurate, but also very particular about shooting with each other. Shooting at one position is usually covered by another position. From the gun, aiming, and shooting can usually be basically completed within one second. This speed makes it difficult for American soldiers to adapt and capture the target.

However, slowly, Crower discovered a weakness, that is, among the defensive forces, about half of the more than 30 people were responsible for the side direction of the defense, and these people's marksmanship was not as accurate and powerful as the other half.

Moreover, judging from the posture and position of the gun, these people should be other professional soldiers, and they are not as pure and sophisticated as professional combat soldiers in terms of killing skills and tactics.

It was much easier to do if you judge the rest of the matter in your heart. Crower immediately led a group of people to go around the side under the cover of mutual support. At this time, the tanks and armored vehicles that were slowly moving from behind finally arrived on the battlefield. Their appearance also shared some of the Chinese's defensive attention.

It seems that the road ahead has become less difficult than it used to be...

At the same time, the attack from the south became more and more fierce, and dozens of Sherman-style tanks rushing in front kept firing. In the eyes of Chinese tank soldiers, the shells with short-barrels smashing cannons were not very powerful, but the tank soldiers were hiding in the thick tank protection wall and talking.

Infantrymen are hiding behind sandbags and soil, and it is difficult to fight against tanks with armored protection in the field, so they can only be suppressed and unable to raise their heads.

The shells that kept landing on the Erqiqi defensive position immediately became severe. The firepower of the Chinese soldiers' defense was affected by artillery fire. The American soldiers in the two directions gathered enough courage to climb up from the ground, and rushed towards the Erqiqi high ground with their bodies.

"It's almost time! I'm going home!"

Seeing the position getting closer and closer to the front, Crower became more and more excited. Like him, all the American soldiers thought so. As long as they could rush to this position of the Chinese, no matter how powerful these Chinese defenders were, with so many of them rushing over, they could crush them alive to death like football!

Moreover, in Crower's eyes, the Chinese also noticed this problem. They were shrinking their troops and concentrating their defense, constantly flashing through simple bunkers and positions.

This made Crower even more excited. Now the Chinese artillery can no longer fire at this distance and cause accidental injuries. The plane did not dare to dive and strafuse at such a close distance. Its own tactics finally played its due role, and it was only one step away from the road home!

But many things in the world can be accomplished in just one step, which will make many people return with hatred and even regret for life.

"For freedom!"

Crower shouted loudly, and the slogan of freedom made all the American soldiers look excited. Yes, you can move towards freedom by rushing through here, you can return to your hometown by rushing through here, and you can escape from hell!

Craul's slogan resonated with all the American soldiers participating in the war. They shouted, roared, vented, and began to accelerate frantically. At this time, there was no need for any hidden cover. All of them spread their feet and rushed to the Erqiqi Highlands desperately.

They were going to rush up here, pull out the damn Chinese from the trenches, and stab them hard with bayonets thousands of times to vent the humiliation and endless anger given by the Chinese over the past period of time.

Everyone's eyes are now blood-red, and adrenaline gushing and secretion stimulated by slogans and deafening shouts. Everyone has changed their previous timid performance, and they are as charged forward as the bravest warriors.

Suddenly, a dense wall of sand appeared in the front of the team that was only less than twenty meters away from the Chinese defensive position.

In fact, it is not a real sand wall. Experienced people can tell at a glance that this is the dust and debris that splashed on the ground during the intensive and rapid launch of ammunition. It is just that the dust column that continues to extend past is like a sand wall that appears out of thin air.

However, in addition to the yellow sand, this sand wall is also mixed with the blood of the human body. Being hit by a large-caliber projectile hit from a high altitude can easily cause huge damage. The blood from the broken torso and limbs quickly formed black and red scenes on the yellow sand wall.

"At such a close distance, the Chinese planes dare to dive and strafuse?" Crower was extremely shocked. This was very different from his original one.

Not only that, the plane dives fast, and when it is an irregular curved defense zone like the mountain, pressing the trigger finger a little late, the bullet has already flown to his own position after a half second. Now, from the perspective from behind, it is shot along the Chinese defense line.

"What's the one who beats so accurately?"

This is what Clauer and other veterans judged in the moment they saw the sand wall rising in their minds. However, before Clauer and the others could find what was attacking them, a dense rocket was descending from the sky. Combined with dense machine guns, machine cannon projectiles formed a fire blockade line in front of these American soldiers and Chinese defensive positions.

"Oh, shit!"

Crowel cursed desperately at the buzzing helicopters that appeared in the sky.

The extremely powerful firepower that blocked Klauer and his team's attack just now was done by these helicopters. Klauer finally understood why the rapid-fired machine gun and machine gun could extend along the Chinese's irregular curve defense line and shoot.

Things that fixed-wing aircraft cannot do can be easily accomplished in front of such helicopters that constantly rotate the fan wings overhead.
