The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince
Chapter 612: Tunnel Warfare
Although the artillery fire did not reach them, the sound of the artillery still almost made them deaf or even unconscious.
However, everyone had experience with the second artillery bombardment. When the artillery stopped, the enemy would attack, and they had nearly a few minutes to react.
During this time, it was too easy for them to rush out of the tunnel and attack the enemy head-on.
Under their shooting, nearly 1,500 of the 3,000 vanguard troops were killed. The rest fled and met the 2,000-strong army, and the two sides collided with each other.
In the end, they fled back in disgrace. They didn't even have the courage to seize the position again. They were really scared and had a psychological trauma.
We wasted countless shells, and it seemed that no enemy had died, while we had lost more than 10,000 men. When the 50,000-man army attacked together, nearly 7,000 men died.
Adding the 2,000 who died in the attack after the first bombardment and the 1,500 who died just now, a total of more than 10,500 people died.
As for the Tehran side, I am afraid that not even one person was killed. After all, except for the first shelling, they had a chance to engage in close combat, and the rest were all one-sided pursuit.
Eisenhower was so angry that he was shaking all over. He had lost more than one-tenth of his 100,000-man vanguard army, and not even one-third of the artillery shells he brought were left. How could he fight the rest of the battle?
He knew that if he continued the attack, it would be fruitless. His army had already been demoralized due to the heavy losses it had suffered, and there would be no result if he continued to fight.
Eisenhower had no choice but to rest and see if he could launch a surprise attack at night. If the attack was successful, as long as he could capture one position, he would be confident that he could capture the rest of the positions.
Under Eisenhower's order, the army quickly began to rest. Jiang Fan looked at the resting enemy troops with a smile on his face.
He gave orders to his subordinates to launch a surprise attack at night. There was no need for a frontal attack, just occasional harassment to make the enemy restless.
He also knew that the enemy might launch a surprise attack on them at night, so he had to strike first. Although he was not worried about the enemy's surprise attack, now was the best time to launch a surprise attack on the enemy.
The enemy's fighting spirit is low now, so it's a good time to attack.
As time went by, night soon fell. Eisenhower had already issued orders to wait until midnight to attack. That was the best time to attack.
It is also the time when the enemy's defensive will is weakest, and the chance of success is extremely high.
But not long after he gave the order, suddenly, there was a fierce gunfight from the left side of the camp, accompanied by the sound of artillery fire.
Suddenly, the left side of their camp was in chaos. Other places reacted and quickly sent troops to support. However, just as the support was sent out, the right side of the camp was attacked again.
The Tehran army suddenly appeared and fired at the Hebrew coalition forces who were resting. The assault rifles stunned the Hebrews.
The entire camp was in chaos. Not only that, at the artillery position, the Tehran army rushed out from nowhere and blew up all the shells in the artillery position. The artillery suffered heavy losses.
Eisenhower reacted at this time and was shocked and angry. He never thought that Tehran's army would dare to attack them at night. He couldn't believe it was true.
You have to know that he has nearly 90,000 people, and the other side has only about 20,000 people at most. With such a small number of people, they dare to attack them. It is simply too much.
However, Eisenhower also found an opportunity. As long as they could withstand this round of surprise attack and send troops to fight back, they might be able to take advantage of this opportunity to capture the position.
He instinctively felt that the enemy's position might be empty, which was the best opportunity to seize it.
Then, he issued an order to counterattack and waited for the Tehran army to retreat. Sure enough, after an hour of fierce fighting, the Tehran army retreated quickly.
Eisenhower quickly ordered his men to assemble their troops. The 20,000 men who had been prepared rushed out of the camp and chased the Tehran army in three directions. Then the assembled army was also ready to charge at any time.
Seven thousand men were sent in three directions. They rushed towards the three positions.
Eisenhower looked at the retreating Tehran army with a look of ecstasy on his face. He felt that his guess was correct. In order to surprise them, the Tehran army sent out large troops from all three positions.
If they counterattack now, as long as they catch up with the Tehran army, they will not have time to return to their positions to snipe.
As the two sides got closer and closer, he couldn't help but smile, and the telescope in his hand couldn't help but tremble. He felt that he saw the dawn of victory.
However, just as the army was about to reach the foot of the mountain in front of the three positions, suddenly, countless huge tongues of fire appeared in front of the three positions.
Then, accompanied by a series of tapping sounds, this sound was like the devil's sound from hell, flashing with devilish light that devoured people in the moonlight at night.
Although it was night, Eisenhower could still see clearly under the moonlight. He saw that his army was falling down like wheat being mowed.
He watched all this in horror, unable to believe it was true. He didn't know what weapons the Tehran army had in their hands, but the horror of those weapons made him shudder.
Although the rifles made by the Hebrew people no longer had to worry about changing ammunition, they still had to change ammunition after every shot.
However, the weapons used by the Tehran Army do not require reloading, and the weapon in front of him is obviously also a gun, and it can fire continuously, which is more terrifying than the assault rifles used by the Tehran Army.
A fear welled up in his heart. The Tehran army had such weapons. As long as they lured the enemy a few times, their army would be sent to die.
He really wanted to order his men to withdraw, but it was too late to give the order, and he could only watch his men rush forward to their deaths.
After the battle lasted for half an hour, the Hebrew coalition forces realized that something was wrong. They looked at the corpses in horror and were too scared to chase them anymore. Instead, they turned around and fled.
They were able to hold out for half an hour, and they really had to thank the darkness for preventing them from seeing the brutality of the battlefield. Otherwise, they would have collapsed long ago.
Just as the Hebrew coalition began to retreat, Jiang Fan, who was standing on one of the high grounds, saw this scene, his eyes flashed, and a sense of surprise surged in his heart.
This is a perfect opportunity to counterattack. If it is seized, the 100,000-strong Hebrew coalition will collapse in an instant.
He gave the order to counterattack again, and as the horn sounded, the Tehran army immediately launched a charge as the Hebrew coalition forces retreated.
The moment the sound of charge and killing rang out, the Hebrew coalition forces were frightened out of their wits by the deafening shouts and screams.
