The Republic of China: A Letter of Appointment Creates the Most Powerful Warlord

The defensive position on the northwest side was indeed quite difficult for the Independence Army. The difficulty mainly lay in its extremely tricky geographical location.

There was a long slope in front of the position, and there was no shelter on this slope.

The enemy held on to the top of the slope, enjoying an excellent visual advantage, with perfect shooting angles and attack range.

Not only that, this area is also filled with various crisscrossing trenches and tunnels, which can effectively resist the artillery bombardment of the Independence Army.

In this situation of one side gaining while the other loses, this position naturally became the last tough nut to crack on the battlefield.

The Feng faction had obviously realized this, so they decisively issued an order to transfer all artillery forces in the rear to the northwest, concentrate firepower to defend tightly, and do their best to prevent the independent army's mechanized forces from launching an attack.

They knew very well that if even this last position was lost, the entire battle would fall into a desperate situation of total defeat and total loss.

At this moment, due to the limitations of terrain conditions and the enemy's tight defense, the mechanized troops were unable to exert their due combat effectiveness. Faced with such a difficult situation, Zhang Beifa could not think of any other effective response strategies for a while.

Although there were still more than twenty hours left before the scheduled combat time, Chang Rui's previous words hit him like a heavy hammer in the heart, deeply irritating his nerves.

There are no cowards in the First Corps, and there is no position that they cannot take over, so even if their superiors give them enough time, they are unwilling to drag it out to the end.

Da da da da da…

The deafening sound of gunfire broke the silence of the battlefield!

The soldiers of the 29th Regiment were like tigers descending from the mountains, tightly gripping the submachine guns they had just been issued, taking vigorous and powerful steps, and charging forward like a gust of wind.

At this moment, they have only one belief, that is to seize this key position in front of them at all costs!

The commander said that as long as they could take down this tough challenge, their 29th Regiment would be the group that made the greatest contribution in this battle. They could ask for any reward they wanted. Even if they wanted the sun in the sky, we would find a way to get it down for them!

"Fuck it! I'm really impressed! Are these people crazy? They're willing to sacrifice their lives just for those two military salaries!"

Inside the Feng blockade line, a group of officers and soldiers just raised their heads and saw the officers and soldiers of the independent army charging again. Their speed was beyond their expectations, and they were about to arrive in front of them.

Faced with such a desperate criminal, even a veteran who had participated in many battles could not help but feel a chill in his heart and a tingling sensation on his scalp.

What do you fear on the battlefield? It's those reckless, reckless people who are only interested in killing you.

Artillery fire, bombs, none of it has anything to do with them. As long as they are still alive and can continue to charge, they are ruthless killing machines, completely dominated by the excitement in their brains, and they want to kill you with all their might!

"Fuck, what are you standing there for? Fire now!"

A battalion commander at the front was the first to react. He climbed out of the pile of dirt and shouted to the mortar unit in the rear.

"Fire, fire! The enemy is right under our noses. What are you doing? You are all blind!"

Little did he know that the shelling from the opposite side had just ended and most people had not yet climbed out of the anti-artillery pits. If he hadn't shouted, the people behind would have had to hide for a while.

Soon, when the soldiers of the 29th Regiment rushed into a range of one kilometer, the mortars on the opposite side were ready.

Bang bang bang! !

The unique launching method allowed the missile to be carried far away against the wind and was discovered by the charging team before it reached mid-air.

"Disperse the formation! Get down, everyone get down!!"

"Watch out for the shells, everyone get down!"

The regiment commander grabbed the soldier next to him and pressed him to the ground. While dodging the artillery attack, he continued to crawl forward.

Time is short and the task is heavy. They must break through the blockade within two hours.

Moreover, after a night of fighting, the 29th Regiment had lost one-third of its troops. If it could not rush to the enemy positions as soon as possible, I am afraid that this number would continue to increase.

Boom boom boom! ! !

Explosions sounded all around, and broken shrapnel instantly covered an area of ​​20 meters. Some soldiers who did not have time to lie down were hit by shrapnel and immediately fell silent.

Seeing more and more soldiers suffering varying degrees of damage, the regiment commander gritted his teeth, looked at the battle line of less than one kilometer, and roared angrily.

"Brothers, this is the only chance to make a difference between life and death. If you lie down again, you won't have a chance to stand up. Take advantage of the gap between shots and charge!"

The next second, the regiment commander jumped up from the ground, holding up a submachine gun and taking the lead to face the enemy artillery fire.

With his leadership, more and more soldiers responded. For a moment, the remaining 1,900-odd officers and soldiers of the 29th Regiment roared and rushed forward desperately like wild beasts that had lost their minds.

Even in the face of artillery fire from the sky, they had no intention of stopping and continued to stride forward. As long as they were not dead, they would never retreat.

……

At this moment, at the forefront of the opposite position, Feng's troops, who had never seen such a scene before, were shocked as if they had seen a ghost. Their eyes were filled with horror and they were completely stunned.

They simply couldn't imagine what kind of power could make these guys charge forward mindlessly as if they had lost their minds, not even caring about their own lives.

At the same time, they were also thinking about how to fight such an enemy?

If someone doesn't even care about his own life, what can he use to fight?

"These guys have gone crazy. We can't fight them at all. Let's retreat, brothers, retreat quickly!"

Someone in the crowd shouted tremblingly, bringing the stunned people back to their senses.

The battalion commander turned his stiff neck, glanced at the heavy machine gun on the left, gritted his teeth, and shouted an order.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. We have the advantage in position, and they can't rush over."

"Brothers, this is a great opportunity to make a contribution. As long as we defeat these guys, we will definitely be rewarded by our superiors!"

While encouraging his men, the battalion commander quickly ran to the heavy machine gun, took control, and fired a burst of fire below.

When an Independence Army soldier was shot and fell to the ground, a ferocious and happy smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he couldn't help shouting loudly.

"Look, look carefully. They are human too, and they are afraid of bullets and artillery shells. We are in a high position, and we have artillery support. We can easily withstand this wave of attacks. As long as we can stop their attack, the superiors will definitely give us a big reward!"

"Why did we join the army? Just to make some money. Now's the opportunity. If you miss this opportunity, you'll never get it again!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the soldiers who had been shouting that they wanted to run away all stopped. After a brief thought, they looked at each other and saw the same greed in each other's eyes.

The battalion commander was right. This opportunity was really rare. In the past, whenever the independent army appeared, there would be mechanical troops following. It was almost impossible to achieve large-scale killing.

Now, it is the enemy's turn to counterattack. They still occupy such an important terrain. It would be a shame not to take advantage of this opportunity to make a comeback.
