Chapter 619: Rumble

The artillery rumbling. The offensive of the Western Region Allied Forces was easily dismantled in an instant. For the first time, the coalition forces of the Western Regions suffered such a heavy artillery attack, and the coalition forces' offensive formation was suddenly collapsed by the double blow of artillery and machine guns. The corpses of those guards who were supervising the battle were also covered by artillery fire.

After continuing to shoot very quickly. The front line entered a relatively quiet environment. The battlefield was quiet and terrible. The war was only temporarily subsided.

"Yes. Yes. I understand. Sir." Commands at all levels have been ordered to launch a major counterattack.

"Order all the reserves to enter the forward positions. The offensive is launched at seven o'clock in the morning." The order was issued in this way.

After receiving the order. The reserve team rushed into the position. The original troops began to be replaced. There was an urgent change of defense in the narrow trenches.

"A company withdrew to the rest area to rest and eat. The third company entered the position." The officer continuously issued adjustment orders.

Two rows of people in the trenches were walking in different directions.

After spending an hour and a half. The change of defense is finally over. To save time. The offensive troops will eat breakfast on the spot. Breakfast is milk, bread, canned beef. These foods are easy to transport and distribute.

And in the artillery position. The carriage carried various artillery shells to the artillery positions. Ten minutes of firepower shooting is just the beginning. They will begin a violent bombardment of 25 minutes at 6:30. The duration of this shelling will be longer than before.

On the other hand, the space army began to enter the airship on a large scale. The bombing airship squadron began to take off. The paratroopers boarded the boat. Everything is going on intensely.

"Didi." The telegram beating continuously. As the war unfolded. The communications force has been busy. They not only have to accurately issue the latest orders. At the same time, tell the rear about the recent battle.

"Sir. Look at this." Qin State Xianyang Staff. A staff officer handed the telegram just received to Yang Duanhe on duty.

Yang Duanhe took a quick look at the telegram. "Hurry up and let all the combat staff be in place. Inform General Wang. General Li. It is said that the war is urgent." Yang Duanhe said eagerly.

Soon all the combat staff began to enter their positions. The map has also been replaced with a combat map of the Western Regions. The staff officers are arranging the war chess of each unit on the map according to the information provided by the battlefield.

At the same time, it is also communicating the latest situation on the battlefield.

"What happened?" Wang Jian walked over and asked.

"Look at this." Yang Duanhe handed Wang Jian a telegram.

"What's the matter? Could it be..." Li Mu came over as the representative of Zhao Guo and asked.

Wang Jian handed it to Li Mu after reading it.

"The latest battle report. The frontline shelling is over for ten minutes. The artillery unit is preparing ammunition. The infantry reserve team enters the trenches." The staff officer used a microphone to urgently notify the latest battle report.

On a large battle map. The staff are marked with various pieces. The changes on the battlefield are clear at a glance.

"Have you notified the palace?" Wang Jian asked.

"It has been notified by phone. The king will wake up in an hour and a half," a staff officer said.

"Very good. Do you have a detailed plan?" Wang Jian then asked.

"This came from before. The paratroopers began to board the boat. The airship bombing squadron is taking off. The landing force is boarding the airship. It is estimated to be completed now." The staff officer said.

"When will we leave?" Wang Jian asked.

"The bombing of the airship is at six o'clock. It will be bombed within 20 to 50 miles behind the coalition in half an hour. The airborne troops don't know. Their time has not yet been determined." The staff officer replied.

"Yeah. The planning time is a bit messy." Wang Jian said.

"The key to success or failure lies in whether the airborne troops can land safely." Li Mu said. Wang Jian nodded.

And at the frontier airport. The paratroopers have entered the airship. Many people are very nervous. Five large airships carry a company of paratroopers. There are a total of twelve large airships arranged in an offensive direction. Thirteen large airships will be arranged in the other direction. A medium-sized airship. One or two ships in the middle will have their supplies in place. And behind them. Will follow more than eighty to ninety airships of various types. The two directions combined put more than two hundred airships into combat.

"We were very nervous at the time. It didn't say when we took off. It just let us get on the airship. Really. The airship was very quiet at the time. Everyone didn't want to talk. The atmosphere was very nervous. I was so nervous that I swallowed my saliva. I can hear it." An airborne paratrooper recalled.

"I don't know what was going on at that time. The pilot of the airship didn't show up for a long time. I wanted to scold them. Because we were so nervous. The guy next to me kept trembling. He was trembling like an infectious disease. I was shivering too. Another companion next to me said jokingly."

"I said, did you drink too much soda?"

"I said no."

"Then why are you trembling all the time. It's just like urgency."

"I thought it was funny at the time. In fact. Many of my companions laughed at me. The soldiers in our airship laughed. The atmosphere relieved the tension at the time." Zhao Han, who was parachuting at the time, parachuted in the second row and two rows. The soldier of the squad said.

Just as the paratroopers were waiting. Wang Ben and Li Xin discussed the specific combat time of the airborne troops.

"The white sky is very good. But isn't it a little dangerous?" Wang Ben is the Marine Corps after all. There is nothing if a small team airborne at night. But so many troops. It's really tricky.

"How about after the bombing of the airship?" Li Xin asked tentatively.

"If this is the case. Will it bring great vigilance to the other party? Our bombing airship can drop bombs. In that case, they..." Wang Ben imagined his own speculation. If the opponent endures less than one round of air strikes, escape early. Then the whole plan may fail. Although the existing troops can easily defeat the opponent. But it is very regrettable that it cannot be wiped out. do not know why. After the Qin Army equipped a large number of new weapons. There are a lot fewer cases of annihilating the opponent. After this reformed tactics. In particular, the application of airborne troops of new types of arms will well solve the problem of siege and annihilation. The Allied forces can no longer fight the rout.

"I understand what you mean." Li Xin knew Wang Ben's thoughts. But security. It really worries him.

"It will take two hours to reach the destination. If you take off now." Wang Ben took out his pocket watch and looked at it. The time is displayed at 4:32.

"How about taking off at 5:15?" Wang Ben asked.

"Arrive at the destination at 7 o'clock in the morning?" Li Xin said while looking at Wang Ben.

"Yes." Wang Ben nodded.

Li Xin thought for a while. Now is the crucial moment to determine the course of the war. The biggest highlight of this war is the use of airborne troops. This is a war with the style of a future war. Two people bear great responsibilities.

"Just do it!" Wang Ben said decisively.

Li Xin nodded.

"Order the airborne troops to take off at 5:15."

"Fifteen minutes later, the descending troops took off. * Li Xin ordered the Chief of Staff.

Orders are randomly issued over the phone. At this time. The attack time sequence table of all time arms is arranged.

But the last service. Cavalry units that complete their attack tasks and advance their forces quickly need to postpone their attack.

Follow the schedule set by Wang Ben and Li Xin. The first round of ground attack will be launched by infantry. Instead of cavalry. This is mainly due to the large number of obstacles set up by the ground forces. These obstacles form a narrow terrain invisibly. This is very difficult for the cavalry to deploy. Cavalry lies in quick mobility. Allied forces are generally equipped with light cavalry. The protection is weak. But it is very mobile. This was taken into consideration when the plan was made. The first round of infantry attack will occupy the opponent's forward positions. These positions are made up of gullies. It is troublesome for the cavalry to advance. After the infantry destroys all this. There will be the starting position of the cavalry. Quickly interspersed to the enemy's rear. Divide and encircle, intersperse in roundabouts, and merge with the airborne troops that have already airborne. Complete the final task of completely destroying the coalition forces.

The cavalry unit has withdrawn from the previous battle. And completed the refurbishment. The number of cavalry is more than 13,000. In addition, there is a special cavalry of two thousand men. They are equipped with local camels. Not a horse. This mainly deals with the local desert terrain. Such cavalry units also exist in the Western Region Allied Forces. However, their use is mainly for transportation. Rather than the rapid offensive of the Qin army. After these unfold. Logistics transportation vehicles will also move forward. The engineers spent countless brain cells for this.

A simple grid pavement woven by barbed wire is laid on the road along the way. This kind of road can prevent the wheels of vehicles from sinking into the gully of the Gobi Desert. This kind of wire mesh can be driven as long as it is slightly hardened. The most important thing is the simplicity of laying. The speed is also very fast. Very conducive to rapid establishment of channels. This will help the rapid deployment of Qin's supply.

"The timetable is here." Yang Duanhe handed the telegram he had just received to Wang Jian.

"The parachute troops took off at 5:15. They arrived about two hours later. Next came the boat troops. Six o'clock exactly. The bombing of the airship squadron. At half past six, the shelling began. Twenty-five minutes." Wang Jian looked at the list. The order of attack.

"Sir, the king is calling." A correspondent stepped forward to report.

"I'm here." Wang Jian handed the timetable to Li Mu.

"If you have anything you need to add, you can give an order directly." Wang Jian then answered the call from King Qin.

Li Mu took over the timetable to check.

"How is the situation?" Qin Wang asked.

"The situation is very good now. The timetable has been laid out." Wang Jian replied.

"Very good. The widow will check it out now. Have you informed the Prime Minister?" Qin Wang asked.

"The secretariat has been notified." Wang Jian replied.

"Very good. That's it. The widow has hung up." King Qin hung up after speaking.

"Did the king say anything?" Yang Duanhe asked.

"The king is coming over." Wang Jian said.

"It's five and three o'clock now." Wang Jian looked at the clocks placed in the staff and said.

"The parachute troops will take off in a few minutes," Wang Jian said.

"My lord. The staff just called. It said that the timetable has been lined up." Shang Wen's secretary of the prime minister came in and said.

"Let me see." Shang Wen said.

"Something telegram." The secretary took out a telegram from the folder. The perforated strips are glued on for easy reference.

"It will take off at 5:15 Xianyang time." The first thing Shang Wen saw was the first article of the telegram.

Shang Wen looked up at the clock. The time has come to ten. There are still five minutes.

"Boys. I've been waiting for a long time." The pilot of the airship boarded the airship. His co-pilot. The technician has already begun an intense inspection. And all the paratroopers looked at the pilot with all kinds of eyes. It means we have been waiting for a long time. See it.

"Okay. Let's take off." The driver also felt embarrassed. But there is no way. The guys above don't give orders.

"Happy journey everyone!" After saying that, he turned and entered the cab.

"Good luck to us. Good luck to those guys," the driver said to himself.

"The airship in Area One starts the engine. The cable loosens." shouted loudly from the loudspeaker.

With a shake. The cable of the airship loosened. then. The paratrooper felt that he was walking up slowly. this moment. Everyone relaxed during the tense moment. They finally embarked on their journey.

One airship after another took off. The sun in the east is shining. Shine them into an unknown area. That area is full of mysteries, miracles and risks.

"Take off." Wang Ben said while looking at his watch. While King Qin looked at the time on the carriage and imagined that the troops had taken off, Shang Wen raised his head to pay attention to the time.

After the airship formed in the air. Separate the two waves and fly to their destinations.

"Attention boating troops. Attention boating troops. You are about to take off in five minutes. Make the final preparations." The loud speaker warned. All the descending soldiers began to check their weapons. Carry-on equipment. Then fasten your seat belt. Everyone's expressions are unnatural. His face is very solemn.

"We are about to take off," the sergeant said silently.

The cable loosens. The airship shook. Then it rose slowly. After lift-off, the formation will be carried out according to the original plan. The huge tinfoil number will give them an indication of the number represented by the airship.

Temporarily install ground lights to help them illuminate the friendly aircraft in front of them.

Nearly two hundred airships just lifted off and left in groups. The airport personnel looked up at this spectacular sight. War photographers used only a little oriental light to shoot this spectacular scene. The airship was shot from a personal angle.

The reporters were excited to report this historical moment.

"This is our history falling from the sky. People in the Western Regions would never imagine. Brave Allied soldiers will come from the sky. Block them behind them." The reporter reported. They will use the commercial telegraph line to send the information. Then publish it in the newspaper. If used. It will be sent to various local newspapers for printing by telegram. In this way, the newspaper achieves the purpose of simultaneous distribution.

The front line is still very quiet. What is not quiet is the Allied Forces of the Western Regions. They were tortured enough by the emotion of failure. Many people involved in the attack died under the opponent's artillery. The war is so cruel. They want to go home. I don't want to fight anymore.

But the Allied side has already sharpened the bayonet.

"Brother. What are you doing with your bayonet?" a Korean infantryman asked Sergeant Zhao Jun.

"Don't you feel something is wrong today?" The veteran continued to sharpen his bayonet.

"What's wrong. I don't feel it!" The South Korean soldier did what he said strangely.

"Hey, nothing." The veteran smiled slightly. Then he said nothing. The South Korean soldiers were surprised. But I know everything.

"5:56" Wang Ben looked at his watch.

And at the airport. A large number of bombing airships have begun to loose their cables. And the airport on the side. Some fighters from both sides have started their engines. They will be the first to attack. They installed two half-stone bombs at their opportunity. They will drop the bombs into the coalition assembly camp in a low-altitude flight. Their goals are small, scattered goals. The airship bombing targets are all nearby important camps.

"Take off." The commander waved. The ground crew removed the wooden cheque. The engine roared. The first plane took off. Followed by the second one. The third frame.

The airship on the other side has also taken off. They will be arranged in a certain formation into the depth of each other.

"Heart 2." Wang Ben and Li Xin spent this difficult time playing cards. Both of them know as local commanders. My heart is more nervous than anyone else. Playing cards can only suppress tension on the surface.

"Look at it. Heaven." At this time, the Army Air Combat No. 1 Brigade. Thirty-six planes flew over the Allied forces in a large triangle formation.

The sound of "buzzing" broke the temporary calm.

The Western Region Allied Forces can only look at the sky numbly. Their chief also realized the abnormality. Such strange things that can fly often appear. But what happened today. How come there are so many.

Soldiers on both sides looked up at the plane in the sky. After the planes left, there was a huge formation of airships for a while. Two bombing groups. Plus a special bombing airship squadron. Nearly a hundred airships flew above them.

At this time the sky is clear. So many planes. airship. Let everyone feel shocked.

"Blow up you bastards." The pilot in the sky looked at the ground and cursed.

"So many airships. Airplanes. Cannons," a technician looked at the position below. The artillery positions are busy. The ground soldiers waved at them. The coalition soldiers didn't know what happened. Their opponent is too strange. They know nothing.

It's six thirty. After the airship of the plane flew away that day. The calm broke again. The artillery bombardment began.

"0180. Shoot quickly." The shooter yelled.

"Let it go." "Boom." The first shell fired. Then countless cannons began to roar.

"Huh." The "Boom Rumble" coalition position was suddenly in flames. There are explosions everywhere. The earth kept trembling. Even the Allied positions felt that the artillery was extremely powerful. Everyone can only stay in the trenches and wait quietly. The order has come down. Everyone will rush out of the trenches. Shelling for twenty-five minutes.

Some courageous lie out of the trenches to check the situation on the opposite side.

"How is it?" a recruit asked curiously.

"Here you. See for yourself. There are explosions everywhere. It doesn't mean anything." said the soldier.

There were explosions everywhere in the opposite position. The billowing smoke will bury everything.
