Warlords: Conquer the world from the county magistrate

Chapter 230: Bloody Battle on Xinyuan Front Line

"I wonder what Commander Shi thinks?" asked the commander of the 20th Division.

The commander of the 313th Division laughed and said, "I am going to send a death squad to break into the enemy's position from both wings."

There are three regiments of troops to tie down the front. Once the suicide squad rushes into the enemy's position, the entire army can charge and seize the Nanshan Army's position.

"Commander Shi, isn't it a bit risky to do this?" the commander of the 20th Division asked worriedly.

The commander of the 313th Division said disdainfully: "There is no such thing as fighting a war without taking risks. We are now betting on whether the enemy still has reserve troops on the outer positions."

"If we lose the bet, we will only lose one or two thousand people. If we win, it will be a great achievement. What do you think, Commander Qin, do you want to do it?"

"Okay." After thinking for a moment, the commander of the 20th Division agreed to this strategy.

The 313th Division and the 313th Division each sent a regiment to approach the Nanshan Army position from the left and right wings respectively, with the th Division approaching the south side and the th Division approaching the north side.

As the two regiments slowly approached, the soldiers of the 204th Regiment soon discovered them and reported to the commander of the 204th Regiment.

Seeing this situation, the regiment commander sighed. There were not many people left on the battlefield to guard against these two troops.

"Send a telegram to the division headquarters, requesting support."

The 204th Regiment encountered successive attacks from four divisions of the Northern and Southern Armies, causing heavy casualties to two divisions. At this point in the battle, their performance was already very good.

Li Zhongwu in the rear had discovered the situation at the front through a telescope.

Li Zhongwu secretly thought that this was not good, and immediately instructed the division chief of staff: "Let the firepower battalion and the special forces battalion support the front-line positions. After repelling the enemy's attack, immediately lead the 204th Regiment to withdraw from the front-line positions."

The situation was urgent, and the chief of staff immediately notified the two battalions to assemble and personally led the team to support the front-line positions.

After the chief of staff left, Li Zhongwu took out the telescope again to observe the battlefield situation. During this period, Li Zhongwu would observe the battlefield from time to time and pay attention to the enemy's dynamics in order to respond.

"Division Commander, the 204th Regiment has sent a message." As soon as I took out the binoculars, a communications officer came up and reported.

After putting down the telescope and reading the telegram, Li Zhongwu ordered: "Tell the 204th Regiment to hold on. I have sent reinforcements."

When the two regiments of the 313th Division and the th Division were less than meters away from the Nanshan Army's position, the two platoons of the Nanshan Army guarding the north and south flanks began to shoot at them crazily.

After being attacked, the Northern and Southern armies accelerated their march and set up heavy machine guns on the spot to fight back.

Under the cover of heavy machine guns, it took the two regiments five or six minutes to rush to a distance of 300 meters from the position. At this time, light machine guns were also set up on the ground and fired fiercely at the Nanshan Army's position.

The Nanshan Army, located in the center, was constrained by the troops in the trenches of the northern and southern armies and could not withdraw to support the two wings, making the situation of the Nanshan Army increasingly critical.

Ten minutes later, the two regiments of the Northern and Southern armies finally broke into the Nanshan army's position after suffering heavy casualties.

Seeing this, the regiment commander had no choice but to draw hundreds of men from the center and said to the chief of staff: "We will each lead a team to drive the enemy troops on the north and south wings out of their positions."

"Yes, Commander." The chief of staff responded and led more than 200 people to the north wing.

The captain did not hesitate and led the remaining two hundred people towards the south wing.

The regiment commander and his two hundred men soon encountered the headquarters of the 313th Division. The sudden attack by submachine guns caused hundreds of casualties to the 313th Division.

The commander of the 313th Division was also a man of courage. He shouted, "Brothers, if we retreat, we will die, but if we advance, we will live. Follow me and charge forward."

Led by the regiment commander, the soldiers of the 313th Division were in high spirits and rushed towards the Nanshan Army without regard for their lives, leaving behind hundreds of corpses, and finally came into close combat.

The enemy was already close in front of them. After the Nanshan Army ran out of bullets, it was too late to change magazines and they had to fight with the Southern Army with bayonets.

The AK47 gun body is shorter than the Daxin -type, so it is relatively disadvantaged in bayonet combat, but the elite troops of the Nanshan Army have undergone rigorous bayonet combat training. They are divided into groups of three, with two people blocking and one person stabbing.

Caught off guard, the Confederate Army lost dozens of lives.

"Those equipped with submachine guns retreat, quickly change magazines and shoot." The regiment commander led the soldiers with submachine guns to retreat, quickly change magazines and shoot.

Submachine guns could not be equipped with bayonets, so they could only use bullets to kill the Confederates from a distance. Under the attack of submachine guns, the Confederates left dozens of corpses.

The soldiers armed with AK47s immediately adjusted their formation and launched another round of attacks on the Confederate Army, which was thrown into disarray.

The commander of the Southern Army shouted, took back the broadsword from the guards, and rushed towards the Southern Mountain Army: "Brothers, if we kill these Southern Mountain Army, we will win."

"Charge." Encouraged by the regiment commander, many Southern Army soldiers shouted and rushed forward.

The two armies started a new round of bloody fighting, and the fighting situation was extremely brutal for a while.

As the number of Nanshan troops in the center decreased, the Northern and Southern armies in the trenches seized the opportunity to jump out of the trenches and rushed towards the Nanshan army's position.

Seeing that the balance of victory was gradually tilting towards them, the commander of the 20th Division said happily: "Commander Shi, send the remaining troops up."

Although the 313th Division and the th Division achieved considerable results, both divisions suffered heavy casualties.

This made the commander of the 313th Division very sad, while the commander of the th Division was so happy about the victory that he had no time to care about the casualties of the troops.

In this battle, the two divisions have deployed 313 people. In order to avoid failure, the commander of the th Division agreed to continue sending troops.

"Okay, we'll each send another regiment to join the battlefield."

After the order was conveyed, the two main regiments immediately rushed towards the Nanshan Army position.

Half of the more than 204 support troops brought by the commander of the th Regiment have been lost. Of course, one regiment of the Southern Army now has less than people left.

The commander of the Southern Army continued to encourage the soldiers, saying, "Brothers, the enemy is about to give up. Try harder and destroy the enemy to avenge Commander Lin."

"Avenge Commander Lin." Many people shouted and rushed towards the Nanshan Army.

When the commander of the 204th Regiment was about to give up, the Firepower Battalion came to support from the rear. Under the powerful firepower attack of the Firepower Battalion, the Southern Army suffered heavy losses. The commander of the Southern Army was also killed in the chaos, and the Southern Army immediately scattered.

After being rescued, the commander of the 204th Regiment collapsed on the ground. The fierce battle had just exhausted most of his strength.

The remaining soldiers of the 204th Regiment also slumped on the ground, breathing in deep gulps of fresh air to regain their strength.

The firepower battalion that was chasing the enemy returned. The commander of the 204th Regiment supported his exhausted body and came to the battalion commander: "Thank you for saving my life."

"You're welcome." The battalion commander waved his hand.

The two were about to exchange pleasantries when a messenger came up and reported, "Captain, the enemy is rushing in from the center."

The regiment commander's face changed, and he looked at the fire battalion commander and was about to ask him to support the middle route. The fire battalion commander said, "The division commander has ordered us to cover the retreat of the 204th Regiment."

"Okay, let's lead the central troops to withdraw first." The regiment commander sighed helplessly, reluctant to give up the position. But now the difference in strength was too great, so he could only retreat to preserve his strength.

On the north side, under the leadership of the division chief of staff, the special forces battalion drove the Northern Army out of its position and quickly returned to support the retreat of the soldiers of the 204th Regiment in the middle.
