Alien Arms Empire

 Chapter 603603 Kick

Not every corner of this world is so peaceful. After Tiger's troops got close to the southern defense line of Beiyuan City, he ordered his artillery unit to start a tentative attack.

The Tang Army was not wealthy enough to replace all the artillery of its troops with self-propelled artillery, so the artillery in Tiger's hands was actually relatively backward.

 In order to support the assault of the armored group on the west side, the Tang Army concentrated almost all its self-propelled artillery into Redman's troops. This leads to the fact that the artillery in Tiger's hands are actually towed.

Heavy and clumsy towed howitzers are not very fast, but they are reliable and cheap and can fill the gap left by self-propelled howitzers.

When Tiger's troops pushed 100 155mm-caliber howitzers to the front line, the artillery fire of the Tang army made the mirage troops on the opposite side very uncomfortable.

The shells fired by these heavy artillery fell like raindrops on the position of the Mirage troops, reminding them of the horrific scenes half a month ago.

 The Tang Army not only has 155mm caliber howitzers, they also have 105mm caliber howitzers and smaller 75mm caliber field guns.

 Such a large number of artillery pieces are enough to form an artillery group, which can suppress the Mirage's positions with intensive firepower. Soon the Mirage Army abandoned some less important first-line defense positions, and then returned to their core defense zone with everything they could take away.

 …

 In the trenches that had been almost flattened by artillery fire, the soldiers of the Mirage Kingdom broke out of the floating soil. He gritted his teeth and pulled his hand out of the soil. This was definitely good news for him.

 Because many of Mirage's soldiers have been reduced to parts, he can still find his own arm, which is definitely something to be thankful for.

He struggled to free himself from the mud that was lifted up by the shells and covered him, and then he stuck his head out from the edge of the trench and looked at the Tang Army tanks in the distance.

The opponent was about to rush over, so he quickly picked up a rifle produced by Cyric from the corpse next to him, pulled the bolt, and loaded a bullet.

Although this bolt-action rifle has a slow rate of fire, it is not without its advantages: at least it is reliable and will not be damaged easily.

This mirage soldier squinted his eyes, aimed at the Tang Army tank in the distance, and pulled the trigger in despair—he really had no other weapons and could only use his rifle to deal with the enemy tanks.

Sometimes things are so extreme: the weapon in your hand may not always be able to destroy the enemy in front of you. When the weapon is not up to the battle, you still have to fight to the end! This is war!

Do you think that when the enemy tanks come up, there must be an anti-tank gun next to you? No! You may only have a dagger! Do you think you must have a shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missile when the enemy aircraft starts to dive? Come on, you're probably digging a hole with an anti-tank mine...

"Bang!" A gunshot broke the brief calm on the battlefield. The bullet hit the thick armor of the tank, and only a crisp sound was heard in the distance: "Dang!"

The Mirage soldiers retracted their heads and breathed slightly nervously. He could smell the unpleasant smell of corpses, the choking smell of earth, and the smell of gunpowder smoke.

More Mirage soldiers opened fire. They used various weapons in their hands to pour ammunition at the tanks of the Tang Army.

 The most common sounds were the Cyric Type 1 rifles, the Maxim machine guns, and some Mauser pistols.

These pistols were obtained from the Qi army. They were small in number, but they were very useful. Mirage soldiers lack automatic weapons, and it is actually not easy to find alternatives like Mauser pistols.

They even thought that this kind of pistol was quite easy to use, so they sent samples back to Mirage Country, hoping to imitate them and solve the problem of soldiers lacking automatic weapons.

 “Side! Side!” Suddenly, there was a loud sound of gunfire in the trench on the side, which scared the mirage soldier to shrink his neck. The soldiers nearby shouted loudly, reminding everyone that their flank seemed no longer safe.

With the shouts, some Mirage soldiers began to rush along the trenches towards the side where the gunfire was intensive. As they ran, they drew their bayonets from their waists and inserted their rifles.

I have to say that compared to Zheng and Qi, the soldiers of Mirage have higher willpower. They have more perseverance and determination, can withstand more casualties, and at the same time have excellent combat qualities.

 The battle has been fought like this, and there are still very few soldiers from the Mirage Kingdom escaping. One by one, they rushed along the trenches towards the fiercest part of the battle.

“Click, click, click!” The Chicago typewriter in Tang Jun’s hand made a crisp sound every time it fired, which was highly recognizable.

　　With the sound of such gunshots, the soldiers of the Mirage Kingdom will fall one after another. It was not that the soldiers of the Mirage Kingdom had not struggled, but no matter what they did, under the continuous gunfire of the Tang Army, the heavy casualties of the Mirage Army seemed unavoidable. "Ah!" The Mirage soldier just now took out the bayonet from his waist, stuck it on his rifle, shouted and rushed along the trench to the flank.

He could hear the intensive gunshots coming from in front of him, and he could also hear the screams and wails of the fallen Mirage soldiers.

To be honest, he had heard shouts like this before. They were the cries of the civilians begging for mercy when their Mirage soldiers killed Qi civilians who were repairing trenches.

At that time, he ignored the cry, and now he doesn't feel scared or worried. He was already numb, he was already numb when he killed those civilians.

Turning a corner, he saw the Mirage soldiers crowded together, struggling to advance in the narrow trench.

 He shouted loudly with his bayonet in hand, and then moved forward with the soldiers around him. He stepped on the bodies of his companions, and with the encouragement and threats from the officers, he walked forward step by step regardless of the situation.

Soon, he could see people in the front row falling, and bullets flew towards them like raindrops, stirring up a mist of blood in the crowd.

The mirage soldier was aroused by the flying blood and became violent in his heart. He held a rifle and looked ferocious. The moment his companion fell, he started running forward.

 He wants to close the distance as much as possible, and then stab with the most fatal knife! He wants to kill these **** Tang people and leave no one behind!

 While he was thinking this, the soldiers of the Tang Army in front of him also saw the enemy rushing over. He was changing the magazine and saw the bayonet pointing over. This sudden change startled him, and then in the next moment he remembered the posture he had trained repeatedly before.

I saw him using his gun to push away the opponent's long bayonet, then stretched out his leg and kicked the opponent's stomach.

It was only then that the Mirage soldier, who was about 1.45 meters tall, remembered how tall he was. In front of this Tang Army soldier, who was almost 1.85 meters tall, he was no different from his son who had just entered the first grade.

These days, goblins are generally between 1.4 and 1.5 meters tall, basically no different from children. This powerful and heavy kick made the Mirage soldier realize the difference in size. He flew out in a way that was pleasing to the eye.

 It was like a high school student bullying a child who was only in the first grade of elementary school. This scene was quite shocking.

　　At the moment of the kick, the Tang soldier even had a strange and sinful word pop up in his mind: child abuse! If you stop this moment and take an X-ray, you can even clearly see that the mirage goblin who was kicked up and flew up has several broken sternums.

He really wanted to complain: Is it still possible? Even the girls from Bunas are taller than these Mirage dwarfs!

The goblin soldier who fell on the ground finally realized that he had been kicked down, so he tried to struggle to sit up, but because there were too many corpses under him, he couldn't sit up for a long time.

 Finally, he finally sat up, but he was greeted by a barrage of bullets! This Tang soldier had already replaced his magazine, so naturally he would not be stingy with his bullets.

The Mirage soldier who finally sat up looked down at the bullet hole in his chest. He saw blood spurting out of the hole uncontrollably. He reached out and touched it.

 Then, he looked carefully at the blood on his fingers, and fell straight down in the next second.

This time the counterattack of the Mirage Army started like a tide and receded like a tide. With the crisp sound of Chicago typewriters, all the Mirage soldiers fell to the ground. The flesh and blood of these shouting goblin soldiers are still no match for bullets.

The Tang Army's tanks, which were not far from the Mirage Army's position, had already passed through the Mirage Army's trenches and rushed onto this small high ground.

 Following this tank was another tank. Further behind are the soldiers of the Tang Army who have begun to jump into the trenches.

Less than two hours after the battle started, the Tiger cluster, which was mainly infantry, had already captured a considerable part of the positions where the Mirage army was stationed.

Now, Beiyuan City, which is close to the sea on one side, is being beaten in both directions to the southwest. Mirage Takesaburo, who is responsible for commanding the battle, is even more distressed.

He has already pressed up a lot of reserves. If he still cannot stop the Tang army's attack, then he will have to consider a plan to shrink the defense line.

But some people are not satisfied with this plan: the Mirage Base Camp feels that this is not necessary at all, and they will soon provide new supplies and support troops. And Mirage Takesaburo's plan to shrink the defense line, doesn't that bring shame to Mirage?

So, after two days of hard fighting, the Mirage troops still stood on the dilapidated position, waiting in fear for the Tang Army's follow-up attack every day.
