The Mage in the Late Qing Dynasty

Chapter 1109 Military Prodigy

From ten o'clock in the morning to about 10:30, the first wave of attacks by the six battalions of the Greek army had not yet begun, and they hurriedly abandoned dozens of corpses and retreated temporarily.

The Bulgarian soldiers in the trench looked at the man on the bunker in awe and asked who he was.

The first level asked the first level, and at each level, they got to the command post Kliment Boyajiev.

Kliment Boyajyev thought for two seconds and ordered the adjutant: "Tell them the truth."

The adjutant was stunned: "What if Zhao Chuanxin is unhappy?"

"Telling the soldiers the truth can boost morale. I've already paid the money. Who cares if he's happy or not? Besides, he didn't prohibit me from telling the soldiers the truth."

The adjutant told the soldiers that the truth was out.

It turns out that the man on the bunker is Zhao Chuanxin, a legend in military circles, the butcher who made Europe and the United States blush.

Kliment Boyagiev’s timing was perfect.

Zhao Chuanxin showed up first, trying his best. At this time, his identity was revealed, and the morale of the defense line 123 troops was indeed greatly boosted.

"He is Zhao Chuanxin!"

"It's really amazing."

"I heard that he led the cavalry and stopped two regiments of soldiers from the Greek Second Division at the Galikos River."

"Hopefully he lets me survive."

"Surviving this kind of thing has always been dependent on yourself..."

Zhao Chuanxin glanced around the battlefield. He didn't think the Greek army would stop because of some minor casualties.

Sure enough, he didn't understand until he saw the armored truck.

This is a tracked armored vehicle, open-top style, with tires on the front and tracks on the back, with a unique shape.

There are bulletproof plates, perforations, and heavy machine guns installed.

The soldier hid behind the car, occasionally turning his head to take a quick look at the road, and then continued driving.

Rows of infantrymen hid behind the armored vehicles and advanced forward with their waists bent, trying to use the vehicles as cover to advance.

Although it's tiring, it's still more cost-effective than getting shot.

This kind of armored vehicle was used by the British in the Russo-Boer War from 1899 to 1902.

It's more of an armored tractor than an armored vehicle, and it's far from a tank.

During the First Balkan War, Zhao Chuanxin not only saw one, but also snatched one, disassembled it on the spot, and asked Xingyue to memorize the drawings and show them to the students of King Juan Technical College for study.

Therefore, war can make the people of one land miserable and nourish the development of the other land.

Zhao Chuanxin counted them and found that there were ten in total.

The armored vehicles seemed to move slower than humans, so it was no wonder they were forced to enter the scene.

He flashed to five hundred meters away, flashed again to five hundred meters, and then squatted on the side of the road with a loitering missile launcher.

The tail flame is ejected from the launch tube.

Whoosh...

boom……

boom……

After Zhao Chuanxin destroyed five vehicles in a row, the remaining five hurriedly turned around.

But they are too slow.

The soldiers behind the armored vehicle ran away first, while the soldiers who stayed in the vehicle panicked.

"Jump out of the car."

Even the driver ran away.

Zhao Chuanxin sighed: "The 1,000 big eyeball gold coins are gone."

The Bulgarian army cheered.

Some people got carried away and jumped out of the trench, raising their hands and jumping to celebrate the grand fireworks.

At this time, the Greek cavalry roared in, and the man was shot dead on the spot.

The others were so frightened that they huddled behind the trench and fired back at the cavalry.

The cavalry was the vanguard, and soon the two regiments of the Greek 2nd Division, which had been blocked by Zhao Chuanxin at the Galikos River, arrived.

Fortunately, Zhao Chuanxin allowed the 600 Bulgarian cavalry to retreat first.

The Greek troops of these two regiments were blocked, and they quickly contacted their cavalry by radio to come back to support them.

Whenever the Bulgarian cavalry retreated straight back, they collided head-on with the Greek cavalry.

Seeing that the encirclement was approaching, the Greek side's morale was greatly boosted, and both sides marched together to charge.

Zhao Chuanxin heard the gunfire and hurriedly teleported to Bunker No. 4.

Once the number of people exceeds 10,000, there will be no bounds and a sea of ​​people.

This kind of positional warfare is different from Zhao Chuanxin's personal guerrilla warfare. The battlefield is cruel.

Line 123 was protected by trenches, and the Greek army suffered heavy casualties during the roundabout encirclement.

The mountain artillery rear group of the Greek army in the west fired at the 123rd line of defense.

Mountain cannons are not very accurate, but they are very powerful in deterrence.

Zhao Chuanxin was using Maxim to shoot, and Xingyue suddenly issued a warning. Zhao Chuanxin hurriedly showed up at the No. 6 bunker, and the No. 4 bunker where he was originally located was blown up on the spot.

Zhao Chuanxin was furious and immediately took out his mountain cannon to fight back.

Zhao Chuanxin specially set up a Kakrupp M1904 mountain gun turret next to it.

With an elevation angle of 3°12 minutes and the height of the turret, the range is 1380 meters.

boom.

The horizontal shooting range is fine-tuned by 0.6 degrees.

boom……

Zhao Chuanxin and Xingyue had already recorded the elevation and horizontal angle data of this cannon when they were fighting against the Tsarist Russians in Lubin Mansion.

Zhao Chuanxin fired the artillery smoothly, and the second shot destroyed a mountain cannon and artillery piece of the Greek army, killing them.

The adjutant reported to the command post Kliment Boyagiev: "The battle was fierce and the Greek army was attacking fiercely. But the 123rd defense line was impregnable. Zhao Chuanxin destroyed the enemy's armored vehicles and mountain artillery positions..."

Kliment Boyajev's eyes were bright, he clapped his hands together and said excitedly: "This money is not wasted at all..."

Ah...it smells so good!

The reaction of the Greek army was exactly the opposite.

King Constantine of Greece received a forward radio at the command post.

The military newspaper said: The Baojun Defense Line 123 is stubbornly resisting. They have special artillery that can destroy armored vehicles and aircraft. During the mountain artillery bombardment, we were also at a disadvantage. At this time, the total number of casualties on the front line exceeded 900...

Constantine I received military training in Prussia in his early years. In the 1897 Rare Earth War, he led the Greek army to a disastrous defeat, but he performed well during the First Balkan War and won many battles.

He is the kind of person who becomes more courageous as he fights and will not give up easily.

This time, under his command, everything went smoothly until it was blocked in Kilkis.

Constantine was shocked after reading the telegram, and hurriedly adjusted his strategy and issued an order: bypass the 123rd defense line and attack in a roundabout way to outflank.

He guessed that the Bulgarian army placed its most elite troops and most powerful weapons on the front line of defense No. 123.

In Kilkis, more and more Greek reinforcements arrived, and other regiments of the 2nd Division arrived one after another.

Zhao Chuanxin wore a telescope and shot, and after emptying a bullet feed plate, he blinked and felt something was wrong.

He immediately flashed to the command post and told Kliment Boyajev: "The Greek army is trying to bypass the 123rd defense line and attack other defense lines. You should be prepared in advance."

Just now Kliment Boyajev received a telegram from his adjutant saying that Zhao Chuanxin was on the bunker, and the next moment Zhao Chuanxin appeared at the command post.

Kliment Boyajev opened his mouth and was about to speak when Zhao Chuanxin disappeared on the spot.

After another fifteen minutes, the security soldiers in the trenches of Line 123 also saw the clues.

They were fighting fiercely, but the 4567 defense line seemed to be showing signs of being breached.

This made them very uneasy.

On the battlefield, the psychological activities of soldiers are directly reflected in shooting accuracy, speed, and rhythm.

Dogs and chickens are buzzing in the trenches, and when adrenaline surges, people's powers of observation are particularly strong, and panic spreads horizontally.

Zhao Chuanxin cannot be distracted and does not deliberately observe the soldiers' reactions.

But Xingyue scored on the display mirror based on the intensity of the rebuttal fire between the two sides.

The Greek side has a large number of people, and the Bulgarian side has the advantage of trench positions.

The original scores of both sides were: 14679-VS-15846.

At this time, the scores of both sides are: 16328-VS-13262.

Zhao Chuanxin occasionally glances at the data.

After reading it, he was slightly stunned.

It was clear that he was working hard to put out the fire, but why did the situation suddenly change?

As expected, he still lacked battlefield experience.

In the distance, the adjutant watched the battle with a telescope.

He saw that the defense line after No. 4 showed signs of collapse, and the defense line No. 123 was also unstable, so he hurriedly asked people to report the battle situation to the command post.

But looking again, he found that no fire was fired at bunker No. 12356, indicating that Zhao Chuanxin had left the bunker.

He wondered, did Zhao Chuanxin run away when the situation turned bad?

You know, just now the Greek soldiers set fire to the bunker. The fire was flying and stone chips were flying. Zhao Chuanxin's firepower didn't even stop for a moment.

At this time, Zhao Chuanxin flashed into the trench. He did not lean down and just ran behind the soldiers: "Cheer up, cheer up, I will fight with you to the end, cheer up..."

He flashed frequently in the trench, repeating the same words repeatedly with his vocal organs.

After listening to his words, the Bulgarian soldiers felt confident again when they saw his face, which was also blackened by gunpowder smoke.

Zhao Chuanxin inspected for a week, wiped the outer lens of the head-mounted telescope, came to the trench of No. 2 position, pushed aside two soldiers and set up a machine gun.

Others dare not show their heads, but he dares.

Tata Tata...

At this time, others were just shooting back and forth.

Zhao Chuanxin's strafing efficiency was extremely high. The Greek soldiers would be shot even if they were lying low, and they would not be able to escape by crawling on their knees.

Suddenly Zhao Chuanxin lowered his head, and a rifle bullet hit the trench wall behind him, creating a smoking mud pit.

The people around were dumbfounded.

Wow...did you dodge a bullet? Did you read that right?

Zhao Chuanxin held a cigar in his mouth and said to the people around him: "You guys take a break and smoke a cigarette. I'll take over for a while. When you come up later, I'll take over the other lines of defense."

As he spoke, he continued to sweep, sweeping smoothly and smoothly, with high winds and clear clouds, as leisurely as if he was working in his own backyard.

This atmosphere is also contagious.

Line 123 was instantly stabilized.

In the distance, the adjutant was shocked when he saw this scene: "Zhao Chuanxin is really a genius in war."

Let him play with you quickly.

With the defense line stabilized, Zhao Chuanxin felt more relaxed.

He teleported to Bunker No. 5, hid behind the stone wall, and rested against the wall.

Greece VS Bulgaria = 12538-VS-18341.

The data is limited to the comparison of the battle situation of the 123rd defense line.

This was when Zhao Chuanxin did not fire.

A strange scene occurred in the Kilkis defense system. The defense systems on No. 4 and behind were about to collapse, but the No. 123 defense line was as stable as a rock.

Xingyue reminded Zhao Chuanxin, but Zhao Chuanxin was unmoved: "I only care about defense line 123."

By the time he finished his cigar, the data had become unstable again: 15373-VS-13491.

Zhao Chuanxin popped the cigar out of the bunker, twisted his neck, put on Chaos Armor and flashed to the No. 1 defense line.

"Don't worry about others, mind your own position."

A young-looking Bulgarian soldier next to him asked Zhao Chuanxin: "Mr. Zhao, can we hold on?"

Just as Zhao Chuanxin was about to answer, the young man kept talking and had to show his head, but his skull was blown off by a gunshot.

Old Zhao calmly took out a rag, wiped the red and white stuff on the Chaos Armor mask, pointed at the body with half of its head broken into pieces, and said, "Defense Line 123 can definitely be defended. You can go with peace of mind."

The rest: "..."

Zhao Chuanxin bent his bow, nocked an arrow, and shot an explosive arrow outward.

boom……

He walked and shot, and leisurely shot to the No. 2 defense line, which gave his arm some buffer time.

"Not bad, you see, the Kilkis defense system has collapsed across the board, and we are the only ones still fighting."

He said the panicking words in a calm tone, and everyone didn't know whether to cry or laugh, most people were numb.

One effort, another effort, and then numbness.

It's good to be numb, forget fear, and listen to whatever you say.

At this time, a battalion commander crouched and ran to Zhao Chuanxin: "Mr. Zhao, the command post asked us to involve the enemy and let the main force retreat. Kilkis can no longer be defended."

The people around heard it, and there was a trace of sadness in their numb and empty eyes.

The last ones are always cannon fodder.

In fact, the pressure on the defense line here is already very small, and the enemy is just bluffing to make a feint to the east and attack the west.

Zhao Chuanxin even stopped shooting and leaned against the wall of the trench to smoke.

Of course, if the Greek army came out empty-handed, they would turn around and clean up the most stubborn No. 123 defense line.

"Oh? Then just defend it, it's not a big problem."

"..." The battalion commander was a little excited: "Isn't this a big problem? Mr. Zhao, tell me, do we still have a chance to survive?"

Zhao Chuanxin bared his teeth, and only his teeth were white on his face.

"I just warmed up, and you asked me if I have a chance to survive?"

At this time, a team of Greek soldiers close to the trench threw grenades here.

Zhao Chuanxin took his time to take out the Ares M1907 submachine gun and fired.

Tut tut tut...

Boom boom boom...

This row of grenades was actually exploded by him in the air.

The battalion commander stared with his eyes wide open.

That team of Greek soldiers was immediately killed by the concentrated fire from this side.

Zhao Chuanxin put away his gun and flicked off his cigarette ash: "Don't panic, we're just getting started."

When the other soldiers on the defense line began to retreat, Kliment Boyagev ordered the 123rd defense line to retreat, which was equivalent to spending money to use Zhao Chuanxin to death.

Zhao Chuanxin thought of the future battle.

He laughed: Just consider it as building a good reputation for myself.

He first teleported to the bunker, climbed up to the height and looked around the whole place, then returned to the trench and told the regiment commander in charge of the No. 123 defense line: "Don't retreat directly to the north, take people to the south, leave a battalion of troops for me, I will help you cover."

The main force had retreated to the north, but Zhao Chuanxin asked the regiment commander to go south. The regiment commander asked with a stern face: "Mr. Zhao, the south has been occupied by the Greeks. If we retreat to the south, won't it be a trap?"

Zhao Chuanxin frowned: "If you want to survive and want to save the remaining large forces, then you listen to me. Go south for 4 kilometers and go north along the mountain. Someone will pick you up."

"Who will pick us up?"

"You will know when you get there."

Out of trust in Zhao Chuanxin's ability to lead the group, the regiment commander led his people to retreat.

The 1,500 soldiers left behind waited anxiously for Zhao Chuanxin's order.

Zhao Chuanxin took out two bamboo poles wrapped with a piece of white cloth from the secret realm. He wrote on the spot, in Greek: request for negotiation.

Then he was lifted up from the trench.

The battalion commander who stayed with Zhao Chuanxin was buzzing: Is this the rhythm of surrendering and becoming a prisoner?

Not bad, at least he doesn't have to die now.

Half of the Greek column went to pursue Kliment Boyagiev's defeated troops, and the remaining half prepared to encircle and suppress the soldiers of the 123rd defense line.

They were impressed by this unit.

Originally, the Greek side suffered more than 5,600 casualties in this battle.

But because of Zhao Chuanxin's existence, their casualties were close to 10,000, or even more...

Seeing them holding up a white cloth with "Negotiation" written on it, a Greek officer rode up on horseback soon: "What do you want to talk about?"

Zhao Chuanxin asked the soldiers who knew Greek to come forward and talk: "Our superior said that his name is Zhao Chuanxin, you can ask him. If you let us go, we will say goodbye forever. If you insist on annihilating this 1,500-man team, you will have to pay at least three times the price!"

The other side was a huge army, but there were only 1,500 people on their side.

So the soldier's legs trembled, fearing that the other side would kill him directly and then launch an attack.

Fortunately, the Greek officer looked at him deeply and turned back.

The soldier came back.

The battalion commander asked Zhao Chuanxin nervously: "Mr. Zhao, will they agree?"

"Well... it's hard to say." Zhao Chuanxin couldn't help but light another cigarette: "Anyway, you should be prepared to die in battle."

Everyone: "..."

Can't you just tell a lie to comfort us?

Zhao Chuanxin simply took out all the cigarettes in stock and distributed them to the people around him.

1,500 people, but they actually distributed more than 1,200 cigarettes, and some people smoked one cigarette for every two people.

This directly emptied Zhao Chuanxin's stock.

He hoped that the Greeks would not be ungrateful, otherwise he would only have two cigars left to smoke.

Without firing a shot, a large cloud of smoke floated in the trench...

After a long time, the Greek officer just turned around and shouted: "Mr. Zhao, our commander wants to see you. As long as you agree, we will let you go."

Everyone was excited when they heard this and cast their eyes on Zhao Chuanxin.

Zhao Chuanxin replied through the megaphone: "Deal."

Battalion commander: "?"

That's it?

One person's reputation earned back more than a thousand lives.

Really awesome!

Zhao Chuanxin hung a copper eye on the neck of the dazed battalion commander: "Please don't touch this, I'll be back in a moment."

If he moved, Zhao Chuanxin might not come back, haha.

With that said, Zhao Chuanxin teleported the Daniel Zhivkov Cavalry Battalion in place.

The cavalry battalion received the news of the retreat, but did not join the main force and waited blankly for the follow-up order, because that was what Zhao Chuanxin had given him.

Zhao Chuanxin suddenly appeared in front of him. Daniel Zhivkov, who was originally unconvinced by Zhao Chuanxin, became excited at this time: "He's finally here."

Zhao Chuanxin saw that they were making a fire to cook, much more leisurely than the soldiers on the front line.

"Hurry up and eat. After eating, take the people along the mountain to the southeast. You will meet soldiers from about two regiments. Help them reconnoiter and retreat to Petrich. Leave one company behind to welcome the soldiers from the following battalion. , take them to Petrich as well.”

Daniel Zhivkov took the order and took action.

Zhao Chuanxin took his copper eye away and teleported him back to the trench.

The battalion commander was relieved, fearing that Zhao Chuanxin would never return.

Zhao Chuanxin walked slowly along the trench, glanced at the remaining soldiers, and said passionately: "After this battle, you have been on the line of death. You can be regarded as one of Bulgaria's elite troops. But I, Zhao Chuanxin, have something to say first. I will be responsible to you to the end. Now that the negotiation with Greece has been successful, I will give you a way to survive. See you soon!"

Everyone's numb faces changed.

They gradually became excited and their eyes turned red.

It is said that if they carried guns together on the battlefield, it would be considered a life-long friendship.

Zhao Chuanxin jumped out of the trench and landed more than ten meters in the air. The Greek officer on the other side looked in disbelief.

At first, he didn't understand why Constantine I used the lives of these soldiers in exchange for seeing Zhao's salary.

Now he understands.

Zhao Chuanxin jumped and stood in front of the Greek officer the next moment: "Lead the way."

In the trenches at the rear, the Bulgarian soldiers shouted in unison: "Zhao Chuanxin, Zhao Chuanxin, Zhao Chuanxin..."

It seemed to be sending him off respectfully, and seemed to be expressing the joy of surviving a desperate situation.

Just calling Zhao Chuanxin's name was distorted and deformed, making Zhao Chuanxin dumbfounded.

At this moment, Zhao Chuanxin's name completely shined on the European battlefield!

The Greeks pursued the Bulgarian army and gained little. Bulgaria was the defender and had more energy when running. The exhausted Greeks did not catch up, but let Kliment Boyagiev cut off the communication between their departments.

The Greek side did not dare to continue the pursuit, for fear that Bulgaria would counterattack and make it impossible for them to take care of both ends.

Besides, they didn’t have the energy to chase.

Soon, Kliment Boyajev received a radio and learned that the soldiers of the 123rd Defense Line had successfully escaped, with an appallingly low number of casualties. It was a miracle!

"Zhao Chuanxin is really a military wizard!"

He made a decision and proposed to Nikolai Ivanov, the commander-in-chief of the South Macedonian battlefield, to pay more money to hire Zhao Chuanxin to help Bulgaria...
