Two Hundred and Forty-Eight Small Stations
"RPG!" An Alan Hill soldier shouted loudly to his comrades behind him, his reminder made everyone down. Directly in front of him, an Alan Hill shooter with a bazooka pulled the trigger.
A rocket flew towards the target, and the huge tail flame blew up the surrounding dust. Everyone narrowed their eyes, waiting for the loud noise of the rocket hitting the target.
The rocket flew into the window of the waiting hall opposite, and then exploded inside with a deafening sound. The whole house was shattered by the explosion, and the glass that had long been shattered was now more thoroughly shattered.
All the puppet soldiers in the building were blown up, and only a few could continue to fight. These puppets continued to fire with their weapons, only to be shattered by the tracer bullets that hit them in the face.
Under the cover of the MG-42 machine gun, the Alan Hill soldiers who rushed through the pre-war square of the railway station with their weapons bent over, leaned against the wall of the outer wall of the railway station, gasping for breath.
They rushed all the way, braved the hail of bullets, and it was very difficult. Above their heads, there are puppets that are constantly shooting.
Bullets hit the wall, and the rubble splashed people's eyes. The Alan Hill soldiers who crossed the line of fire were also afraid that the puppet would drop the grenade, so they could only bite the bullet and rush into the building.
For them, standing in place and waiting to die is obviously not a good choice, so they climbed over the outer wall that had been hit with bullet holes long ago, and jumped into the interior of the building from a collapsed window sill.
The remains of some puppets were lying on the ground, and most of these puppets were destroyed by rockets in the room. Stepping on these wreckage, the soldiers of Ailan Hill carefully walked to the door with the weapons in their hands.
Suddenly, a puppet ran past outside and found the enemies in these houses who were ready for battle. The puppet stopped and was shot in the head by an Elan Hill soldier as he turned his gun.
When a puppet falls, the surrounding puppets discover the situation. The densely packed puppet soldiers charged towards the lost house with bayonets.
The soldiers of Ireland Hill, armed with STG-44 assault rifles, were guarding the door of the house and kept firing at the outside of the house. One after another, the puppets were shot down, and a parapet of puppet wreckage was piled up in the corridor.
Relying on such a parapet, the puppet soldiers were able to control the situation, but as more and more Ailan Hill soldiers entered the building, the defense line here was in jeopardy and could collapse at any time.
"Grenade!" Outside the wall, more Ailan Hill soldiers who had rushed through the line of fire took out oval grenades from their pockets, pulled the ring safety pin, and made a throwing action.
Under the cover of machine guns and assault rifles, a row of grenadiers raised their grenades sideways and threw them into a row of windows on the second floor.
The soldiers then retracted under the wall holding the helmets above their heads, waiting for the grenades they threw to explode. In fact, when they throw the grenades, they delay the time to avoid the grenades being thrown back by the enemy.
In the next second, there was a violent explosion in the row of windows, and the airflow rushed out of the window, tumbling into the sky with dust. The huge vibration raised a piece of gravel, which fell and smashed on the M42 steel helmet, crackling and clinking.
In the sound of the explosion, on the other side of the square, an M4 tank drove out of the alley, and soon the second tank showed its slender barrel. More Alan Hill soldiers joined the attacking sequence,
Heavy weapons are also in place.
"Tutu! Tutu!" On this side of the square, a puppet tank suddenly rushed out of the bunker, and the six-wheeled tank, which had been hidden behind the wall, used the 30mm anti-aircraft gun installed on it to violently face the love that was taking the lead. Ranhill M4 tank strafing.
The shells hit the armored steel plate of the M4 tank densely, and some even left deep craters on the steel plate because of the distance. A shell hit the tank's crawler chain, making a crisp sound, and the tank's crawler snapped, and was soon paralyzed in place.
Seeing that the leading M4 tank was destroyed, the M4 tank that followed immediately fired a shot at the puppet tank. The powerful armor-piercing bullet pierced through the magic defense barrier on the puppet tank at once, pierced through its thin armor, and directly detonated the magic energy inside the puppet tank.
The huge explosion blew up the turret of the puppet tank, and even blew up the surrounding puppet soldiers. The thick smoke rising from the wreckage blocked the sight of most people, and the firepower of the puppet was weakened.
The members of the tank crew whose tracks were interrupted jumped out of their tanks under the cover of the infantry and the M4 tank behind them. They stooped and retreated to the alley behind them. The remaining M4 tank bypassed them. The wreckage of the companion continued to drive towards the station.
Following this tank was another M4 tank that drove out of the alley, as well as an armored personnel carrier. More Ailan Hill soldiers surrounded these heavy weapons and equipment, and killed Kaunia Railway Station, which was already in ruins.
"Long live His Majesty the Emperor!" In a wave of shouts, Ellen Hill's reinforcements took over from the 121st Division and continued to attack the station. This time, all those who entered the battle came from the rear. Supplementary soldiers, they have high fighting spirit and energy, and they are simply not capable of competing with the puppet troops that have been reduced to the end of the force.
The newly reinforced troops rushed into the train station with weapons, and the defense line set up by the puppet empire here almost collapsed. The puppets were cleared from house to house, and in the surrounding streets, the puppet soldiers were still desperate to reinforce the train station, hoping to curb the attack of Alan Hill.
The remains of the puppet were piled up everywhere, and the army of the Holy Demon Empire launched a symbolic counterattack in the evening. However, their efforts were really limited, and they were forced to stop just after regaining part of the factory area and warehouse area.
They lost about 10,000 puppet soldiers and about 200 soldiers of the Holy Demon Empire, but they still failed to hold the Kaunia Railway Station. It is now occupied by the soldiers of Elan Hill, and a temporary line of defense has been established.
"The troops of the 211th Division have gone up..." Putting down the phone, the chief of staff walked in front of Walter and said lightly, "They have taken control of the station, and we are trying to find a way to clear the surrounding enemies."
"So, keep this offensive until the evening. Tomorrow, we can dispatch sappers to rebuild Kaunia Station?" Walter also breathed a sigh of relief and asked with a smile.
"Yes! General! We finally got through the westward railway within the time requested by His Majesty! The 9th Army is saved." The chief of staff replied with a smile.
The atmosphere in the headquarters of the 121st Division was very relaxed. After all, being able to take down the Kaunia Railway Station was almost equivalent to rescuing the 9th Army, which was surrounded by divisions in Ireland Hill.
Not only that, but from the overall strategic point of view, after Alan Hill reinforces the 9th Army, it can not only increase the defense of Greiken, but also open up the route of reinforcements to the Eternal Empire.
As long as Alan Hill is willing, they can transport weapons and equipment, even personnel and supplies, directly to the Eternal Empire. The situation where puppets are rampant in the Eternal Empire will be largely contained.
The penetration of the westward railway also marked the geographical connection of Alan Hill, Greiken, and the Three Kingdoms Alliance of the Eternal Empire.
In short, this battle determines the strategic situation of the countries in the future, and it is a very important battle.
Over time, the 1st Army Group's full-scale capture of Caunia can be said to be the overall situation. After the occupation of Caunia, the westward group of Ailan Hill has completed its first strategic task.
The three armies of the 1st, 11th and 12th who have withdrawn will receive a strategic option. They can continue westward, into the Eternal Empire, and help the retreating Eternal Empire hold its ground.
You can also head south directly to Caunia, which is not far from the capital of the puppet empire, Bellevue, and can be reached with just two dashes.
Although Bellevue can be said to be in ruins now, it is the capital of the Holy Demon Empire after all. If Alan Hill can occupy this place, it will undoubtedly be a major blow to the Holy Demon Empire.
In this way, the 1st Army with the highest degree of mechanization and the strongest combat capability, as well as the following 11th and 12th Army, will be given to the puppet empire and the Holy Demon Empire and other countries, whether it is going west or south. cause enormous pressure.
With these pressures, whether it is the puppet troops in the Eternal Empire, or the local troops of the Holy Devil Empire and the reinforcements of the puppet empire that are stubbornly resisting in the Holy Devil Empire, they all need a large number of reinforcements to stabilize their defense lines.
If you increase your troops in several directions at the same time, even a puppet empire will feel the pressure!
"Let the troops clear the surrounding enemies as soon as possible! Go south and take back the warehouse area and the original Ireland Hill Street!" Walter stared at the map and commanded: "Isolate the factory area! Look at these puppets, and the Saint Guys of the Demon Empire, dare you stay there and wait to die!"
"Follow your orders! I will order the artillery to block and shoot all nearby areas... The rainy season is coming soon, and I will secretly order all troops to strengthen their defenses as much as possible." The chief of staff agreed.
Walter nodded: "We can't let the puppet take back the train station! We can't lose it! Prepare a telegram and tell His Majesty the Emperor the good news right away!"
