1540 Hold It Before Throwing It Away
Time passed by every minute and every second, and the defense line of the Alan Hill Empire was eroded by the watchman's troops little by little.
The sky is gradually brightening, and a brand new day has arrived-the watchmen have been fighting here for more than a day, and they have also broken through many defense lines of the Alan Hill Empire.
To the embarrassment of these watchmen's forces, despite their many advances, the more they attacked, the more cunning they discovered the enemy.
After they have broken through an enemy line of defense with all their strength, they will be pleasantly surprised to find that their two wings are ring-shaped independent fortifications that have been arranged long ago.
These ring-shaped independent fortifications were sandwiched between the two sides of their attacking troops, making them uncomfortable like scissors.
It is a tragic attempt to attack those ring fortifications with great effort. After charging under the artillery fire of the core forts of the ring fortifications, after paying a terrible price and capturing a ring fortification, they found that they just filled up an obstacle.
Behind this ring of fortifications, there are more such fortifications, mixed in the trenches, supporting the entire defense line.
Compared with the Alan Hill Empire, the defense of the Heavenly Sword God Sect is almost like a child's play. In terms of killing ability, the ten Heavenly Sword God Sects cannot be compared with the Alan Hill Empire in front of them.
The guards even felt that compared to the killing technique, even the opponent was not inferior to their side!
At dawn, on the defensive positions that had been fighting fiercely all night, the watchmen's forces once again launched a fierce attack.
The night is no longer an obstacle for the two sides to fight, and it is impossible for the watchman to stop his attack just because of the night.
Both sides have night vision capabilities, and the vision of the watchers at night is almost the same as during the day-the night vision system of the Alan Hill Empire has also been distributed to every soldier, so there is no obvious discomfort in night battles .
The soldiers of the Alan Hill Empire have enough rotation reserves, so after a whole night of hard fighting, the soldiers who slept all night were rotated to the front line, and everyone once again joined the battle of killing each other full of energy.
In places with a good view, the Alan Hill Empire has deployed a large number of concealed forts. These forts are of different models, and most of them are temporary, built directly according to the needs and the existing equipment in hand.
For example, in some mountaintop areas, the Alan Hill Empire will deploy the kind of fort that overlooks the entire foot of the mountain, using a 155mm cannon or a 105mm cannon to point at the preset bombardment area.
As long as it is not suppressed by the enemy's direct firepower, such a fort can keep firing, putting ten times and a hundred times the pressure on the enemy.
Encountering such a firepower point, the guardians can only wait for the elite conquerors to step forward and destroy it with direct energy attacks.
In the process of waiting, the attack of the Alan Hill Empire will continue, and the huge army of sweepers will be wiped out.
As the battle progressed, some strange weapons and equipment of the Ellandhill Empire gradually appeared. Many of these weapons and equipment were invented temporarily, and many of them were even modified by the frontline soldiers themselves.
Even some "outdated" weapons and equipment have been used,
The most effective one turned out to be the Type 63 rocket launcher...
This kind of weapon with simple results has few failures and light weight, and is easy to move in the fortifications. The instant burst of firepower is very fierce, and it is simply an artifact of defensive warfare.
After many expensive weapons were destroyed by the opponent's air force, this cheap weapon often provoked the mainstay of fire support and received unanimous praise from frontline officers and soldiers.
A clone officer with sleepy eyes brushed his teeth back and forth, walked to a main bunker on the top of the hill, and asked, "How's it going?"
"Sir! The enemy has started to attack again... We have a battalion of supplementary soldiers here, they are all puppets, and their combat effectiveness has been weakened a lot..."
"Well, there are reinforcements, which means the situation is not that bad..." The officer said optimistically, grabbed the binoculars on the table, and looked at the world outside the bunker.
The dense woods have been shattered beyond recognition by the brutal battles. The explosions have caused the trees to fall, and all kinds of bushes have been burned to blackness. You can see exposed abandoned trenches and bomb craters everywhere.
Compared with yesterday, this place has completely changed, from a tree-lined area to a devastated area.
No one was surprised, because everyone knew it would end like this from the beginning. Everyone knows that this is a battlefield and what it will look like in the end.
"Tut, chug, chug!" The sound of dense machine gun fire suddenly sounded in the jungle, and the tracer bullets came out of the bushes and penetrated into the crowd of sweeper soldiers.
Immediately, the sweepers fell down, and more sweepers overtook the corpses of their companions and continued to advance up the hillside.
"Thuk Thu!" The sound of the assault rifle also rang out, and the puppet's counterattack also started on the frontal position.
Next, there was a series of explosion sounds. The attacks of the sweepers fell densely on the defense line of the Alan Hill Empire, and the smoke from the explosion was everywhere.
Seeing that some trees fell down, the shelling of the Alan Hill Empire also joined the performance at this time.
Rows of explosions submerged the attacking Sweeper troops. In the telescope, a Destroyer tank was directly hit by a shell and turned into a pile of food in the mouth of the Sweeper.
Also becoming food, there are the puppet robots of the Alan Hill Empire, the concrete in the broken trenches, and the fragments of bullet casings or guns scattered on the battlefield.
Of course, there are also ammunition in the destroyed bunkers that have not had time to pour out, as well as machine guns, machine guns, and corpses in the bunkers...
The sweepers, just like their name, are sweeping up all the rubbish on the battlefield, and the last remaining are only the living sweepers and the waste soil that has returned to nature.
On the ground, the puppet soldiers of the Alan Hill Empire were still fearless. They kept firing with their weapons, pouring ammunition on the heads of the enemies.
The downed sweeper soldiers rolled along the mountain, and more sweepers continued to advance against the hail of bullets.
As a powerful attacking force, these sweepers would stop from time to time and fire at the positions on the mountain. The projected energy clusters exploded near the positions of the Alan Hill Empire, setting off smoke columns one after another.
The mud was blown up and flew everywhere, hitting the puppet robot of the Alan Hill Empire wrapped in thin metal, making a tinkling sound.
Just behind these combat puppets, the logistics puppets are bending over to pick up the discarded magazines and shell casings.
They quickly sorted the bullet casings into the sacks beside them, and at the same time sorted the magazines into the empty ammunition boxes on the other side.
Behind these trash-picking puppets are the logistics support puppets responsible for distributing ammunition. They quickly stuff the magazines full of bullets into the magazine pockets behind the combat puppets, waiting for the combat puppets to use them.
The whole coordination was very smooth, until a puppet was hit by the black energy shell and flew away, turning into a pile of damaged wreckage.
This battle started at dawn and continued until noon.
The black eagle flag is still flying above the defensive position of the Alan Hill Empire. New reinforcements have arrived at the position, strengthened the defense line and are ready for battle.
After a short pause of less than an hour, the watchman's troops started to attack again, this time the attack was more violent than the previous attack.
Already accustomed to the enemy's fierce artillery fire, the Ellandhill clone grenadiers shuttled among the damaged trenches, looking for opportunities to give a fatal blow to the enemies who rushed into the position.
It is still a large number of puppet battle robots that maintain the entire defense line. These puppets fight day and night, do not need to rest or eat, and can continue to fight just by replacing the energy batteries.
"Boom!" At around two o'clock in the afternoon, the Sweeper troops, who had accumulated enough troops, finally blew up a bunker that had repeatedly hindered their progress.
The main bunker was destroyed, and the front of the entire Irish Empire defense line lost a strong support.
The sweepers who made a breakthrough began to charge to both sides along the trenches full of gunpowder smoke, and the defense line of the entire Ireland Hill Empire began to become precarious.
In the trench, a puppet soldier had just knocked down several sweepers rushing from the side, and was smashed by the sweepers who rushed into the trench from the front.
And the puppet soldiers on the other side were just about to adjust their guns when they were hit by the black energy group attacking head-on, leaving only their lower body and sitting on the bottom of the trench.
Once there is a breakthrough in the complete line of defense, the entire battlefield will begin to develop in a direction that is not conducive to the troops of the Alan Hill Empire. Attacks from all directions made it difficult for the already unintelligent puppet battle robot to cope.
In a simple circular trench, several puppet robots were suppressed by the firepower of sweepers from all directions, and they were all destroyed without even a chance to shoot.
In a bunker not far from this circular trench, several puppet robots that had run out of bullets had no logistics robots that could wait to replenish their ammunition.
The trench passages have been lost, and it is impossible for logistics robots to pass through the trench area occupied by the sweepers and transport the bullets to where they are needed in time.
As a result, the puppet battle robots, which were out of ammunition and food, could only choose the most primitive bayonet battle, and then they were killed one by one by the sweepers like garbage, and became their food.
Before retreating, the two clone grenadiers released the safety of a grenade and crushed it under the corpse of a companion.
The two of them hung the electromagnetic rifle of their still intact companion on the side of the backpack behind them, then raised their own weapons, and retreated further along the trench.
At the other end of the trench, a few puppet combat robots were desperately taking out grenades from the ammunition box, pulling out the safety and throwing them out.
The enemy is close at hand, all they can do is throw as many weapons as possible in the shortest time to kill the enemy. Because if the enemy rushed in, they would be destroyed in no time.
In the underground headquarters, the officers who are preparing to counterattack are busy back and forth. They have to allocate resources and arrange the cooperation between the arms. There are many problems that need to be resolved through communication.
Andre stood beside the map table with his hands behind his back. He had been standing like this for more than two hours. In fact, Andre is thinking about whether it is necessary to weigh this counterattack.
"Sir! In the past 4 hours, we lost at least 11,000 puppet battle robots, and killed more than 3,100 clone grenadiers... Our loss rate is increasing exponentially." The adjutant came Behind General Andre, he opened his mouth to report bad news.
Because more and more positions were breached, the losses naturally increased. The number of enemies has not been reduced too much by nuclear weapons, and the pressure on the front of the position is naturally much greater than estimated.
This kind of increasing loss is actually very common. As the battle continues, the loss of the Irish Empire will become faster and faster.
First of all, the wear and tear of combat robots, including wear and tear, will begin to appear frequently. At the same time, the wear and tear of fighter jets and other weapon systems will also begin to intensify.
Obviously, it seems that the watchman troops who don't need to worry about this kind of attrition are much more advanced than the Alan Hill Empire in this respect. Their similar losses are almost negligible, and no matter from which point of view, the replenishment speed of their troops is much faster than that of the Alan Hill Empire.
"80% of the captured positions are useless... Our counterattack, the best result, is to wipe out some of the enemy's vital forces..." Andre turned his head and said to the adjutant.
"So, General, what do you mean...to cancel the counterattack?" The adjutant was taken aback and asked.
"No, what I mean is, order the counterattack to start immediately!" Andre gave the opposite answer: "Since the position is taken back, it can't be used anymore, then we should hold it before losing it!"
...
"Brothers! It's time for us to go! Let them know what a torrent of steel is! For Alan Hill!" While closing the hatch above his head, the tank commander cheered his companions up loudly road.
The chariot has already started. Because of the use of all-electric propulsion, the tank no longer has the deafening roar of the diesel engine.
The only thing left is the sound of the tank's tracks rolling, and the almost inaudible rotation of the motor. The electromagnetic tank troops of the Alan Hill Empire tore off the camouflage above their heads and began to advance.
"Our air support is only 5 hours! We are safe until dark! Make good use of these 5 hours! Make a deep impression on our enemies!" Inside the headset, the voice of a tank commander sounded stand up.
"Be careful of those sweepers who look very tall, their attacks are very powerful! Keep in formation and cover each other!" The voice of another tank commander reached everyone's ears through the earphones: "Be vigilant! The enemy is always on the alert! It may appear!"
