Chapter 593: Defend first

"Hold it. Keep it all to me." A major walked back and forth to let the soldiers shoot from the shooting hole. Fortunately, Qin Jun. They are equipped with valve rifles. The reloading speed has increased a lot. And the power of the rifle has also increased a lot. Although the shoulder hurts. Mainly because the recoil is somewhat large. But it can shoot farther. There is no problem after a hundred steps.

"Aim. Release." A platoon leader directed two shifts to shoot. This platoon tactic is very effective. When the enemy was approaching, the infantry of the two squads took turns firing more than twice. Basically it can repel the enemy's offensive charge. The necessity of platooning tactics still exists because of the small number of machine guns. Qin State equipped most of the new machine guns to the offensive troops. The defense forces had only a few revolver guns. And because of its cumbersome relationship. Can only be placed on defensive support points. Rather than a general outpost. usually. Only one battalion’s defensive support point is equipped with four revolver guns. The quantity is very small.

"Papa." Two revolver guns were temporarily adjusted from one end of the trench to the left wing of the support point. This direction. The opponent used a large number of infantry. Snow combat. Horses cannot ride at all. The thick snow will sink the horse's legs deeply. And the goal of action is very big. It is very helpful for the soldiers of the Qin Army to shoot and kill with the rifle in their hands.

So the Western Region infantry began to charge. They babbled and charged. In a sense, they have a great deal of justice. and so. They are very brave. The Qin army and a large number of security forces that belonged to the nature of employment are a special kind of expansion and plunder. One is justice. One is the primitive accumulation of capital. One weapon fell behind. Although they think the iron weapons in their hands are very advanced. But in front of Qin's rifles, machine guns and cannons, they were only beaten.

"Papa Papa." The two revolver guns rotated fifteen degrees left and right to shoot the two machine guns back and forth, forming a crossfire. The rate of fire of the machine gun is only about 200 rounds per minute. And it is limited to the person's turning speed. But this is enough to stop this wave of offense. And paid huge casualties.

"We need to push away the corpses piled up in front of the barbed wire. There are too many dead." said the sergeant commanding the machine gun. The snake-shaped barbed wire set fifty steps away from the Qin army has been crushed by the killed soldiers of the Western Regions.

"Wait. I need firepower to repel the opponent's follow-up force." The lieutenant called. Then he dragged a person to the rear turret and let the artillery fire grenades at the opponent's follow-up force. Then repel the opponent. Only in this way can people be sent out.

The artillery equipped by the defensive force is still old artillery. Although the breech block has been improved. Can be loaded from behind. But the recoil problem has not been resolved. For this reason, only granular black powder can be used. No new charge can be used. The new artillery is mainly in the hands of offensive forces. The number of them is not very large either. There are only dozens of new artillery pieces.

"Huh." The cannonball whizzed past. Directly smashed the soldiers of the Western Regions who followed and turned them into a cloud of black and red mist together with the smoke. The red is the blood mist of the opponent. Many people were killed by shrapnel flying nearby. Qin Jun used a cone-shaped bullet. And also used a new type of fuze. It will explode on the ground. Cut with scissors without measuring the distance.

The firing of artillery made the Western Region coalition retreat and stop the offensive. Countless corpses fell down in the white snow. They shed red blood. Red and white look very dazzling.

After the offense stopped. Qin Jun had to hurry up to eat. The supporting point stocked a large amount of various materials. Gun bullets, food, clothing, medicine, and various equipment. These materials have been equipped for a year. So in the face of such a large-scale invasion. Qin Jun could still be nailed to the spot.

"It's the **** canned food again. Can you change it to something else." Qin Jun was still able to accept this kind of canned beef at first. However, those in charge of logistics only one-sidedly believe that a large area should be supplied. Because there is a lot of writing on the front-line material requirements. then. A large amount of canned food is provided to the front line. This is something that is not stingy with ammunition. The rear of this stuff is very productive. Weapons need to be purchased. The price is expensive but this kind of thing is very cheap.

The boss gave each other a disdainful look. Then leave. This thing has a lot of stock. It's too wasteful not to eat. But it can't be provided for three meals a day. Qin Jun has been looking forward to vegetables for a long time. They don't even like canned fruit anymore.

that's all. Qin Jun's support point was surrounded. But the other party can't eat these points. What's worse. These points are on the traffic arteries. Especially the simple and partly asphalted roads built by the Qin Army. This prevented the Western Region Allied Forces from advancing forward forces quickly and effectively.

And thirty miles behind. The Qin Army's offensive force temporarily converted into a defensive force. They were formed into defensive positions. Resist the allied forces from the Western Regions who sneaked in. The coalition forces of the Western Regions actively launched an offensive but failed. On the other hand, the Three-Power Allied Forces is actively defending. There is no intention to attack the opponent. Because they are making a new combat plan. according to rules. Li Xin will have an offensive force of 20,000 in his hands. but now. He actually arrived with less than 10,000 troops. Most of the army is cavalry. Now they are fighting infantry. This number sent six thousand people. Together with the local garrison and other armed forces, it forms a defensive force of 10,000 people. There are still more than three thousand cavalry in their hands that are not used. This is for counterattack. Only an attack can stop the opponent's attack.

Li Xin's plan is. Let the opponent attack first. Attract the opponent's forces with great defensive power. Then organize counter-offensive forces to boldly attack the other side. Eliminated in one fell swoop. This time will take about one and a half months. that time. The forces from the rear can be fully reached. Only with sufficient forces can a large-scale counterattack be carried out.

This idea was approved by all the staff. The defense force of the Qin Army has attracted a large number of allied forces from the Western Regions. Qin Jun happened to be able to solve them once and for all.

And at the rear. The large forces of the Three-Power Allied Forces are slowly advancing. Many roadside camps have been established.

"Mother. What the hell. It's been a few months now. It's still so cold." Fan Kui complained.

And Liu Ji was drinking wine around the stove. "Come on. It's done." As he said, he picked up the wine and said.

I don't know how to fight this battle. I have been walking for more than half a month and haven't reached the ground yet. Liu Ji's heart. That itch. I saw other people's cows along the way. Sheep ran all over the floor. It can be like this anytime! If so, return to Zhongyang. that. It's more comfortable than that of Master Hou. Thinking about it. Liu Ji fell asleep.

And behind their camp. Li Zuoche was eating canned food. While looking at the exotic style. This desert Gobi gave him the feeling that a good man was on the battlefield.
