super god warlord

There are still more than 4 Messina government troops in the city of Messina, but all the elite soldiers of the government army have already gone to the front line, and most of the rest are old and weak soldiers. The Hualan Army of the Army.

Regardless of whether they can win or not, the government forces must fight. The garrison commander, General Guktan, had no choice but to take out the most elite tank brigade and attack Su Jiye's troops.The tank brigade is the most elite of the troops defending the capital. Although this tank brigade is only equipped with the Mark IV tanks used by the Saar Empire in the late World War I, it is already considered a strong army in the New World.

These tanks, which were used as surplus after the war and purchased by the Messina government at a very low price, can at least be operated after so many years. In terms of parts matching, at least it has done a good job.

Using these tanks, the government forces strangled domestic revolutionary uprisings time and time again, winning easily every time, so this tank brigade was also dubbed the name of the ace army.As the strongest barrier of the capital, even in the most difficult moment of the front line, they were not mobilized, because this army was the last barrier of the government and Cardenas' greatest reliance.

General Guktan, the commander of the garrison, also felt full of confidence. He believed that as long as these iron guys entered the battlefield, they would be able to wipe out all the enemies, just like how the Saar Empire used them against the Teutons in World War I. .

Admiral Guktan didn't know how the world's technology had advanced by leaps and bounds during the 20 years since the end of the First World War. Anti-tank weapons had also developed from anti-tank guns and small-caliber anti-tank guns to large-caliber anti-tank guns. Tank guns, anti-tank assault vehicles, recoilless guns, and even Hualanguo's unique shoulder-fired rocket launchers.

When the group of the self-proclaimed elite Messina government army drove their old tanks slowly crawling on the plains outside the capital, and rushed towards the position that the Hualan Army had just built, they believed that victory would be doomed.Many people were whistling, as if they wanted to celebrate their victory in advance, but when their tanks were 700 meters away from the Hualan Army's position, recoilless guns of various calibers began to speak.

Su Jiye did not carry any heavy equipment, nor mechanized equipment such as tanks, because they were advancing lightly and crossing the mountains. Their anti-tank weapons with the longest range were recoilless guns.This sharp weapon, which the Hualan army has equipped for more than ten years, quickly demonstrated its strong combat capability.

With the muffled sound of the recoilless gun, a dozen tanks rushing to the front were shot and exploded one after another, and the Messina tank soldiers behind were shocked.However, they also have their own pride as the trump card army. Seeing the tragic situation of their comrades-in-arms, they still gritted their teeth and continued to move forward, trying to rush into the opponent's position to exert the power of tanks in melee combat.

The Messina tank soldiers did not know what kind of opponent they were facing.The flexible and maneuverable recoilless guns have long been practiced in the Hualan army. The artillerymen immediately moved after firing, which made it difficult for the slow-response Messina tanks to hit the target.

Fortunately, there are not many recoilless guns, which makes the people of Messina feel a little relieved.However, this comfort soon disappeared, because immediately after the distance between the two sides was reduced to within 400 meters, the Type [-] and Type [-] rocket launchers of the Hualan Army began to show their power.

These rocket launchers divided by caliber are extremely mobile, and usually only need an anti-tank team composed of two soldiers to easily carry the rocket launcher and at least eight rockets.They can move flexibly between trenches without being restricted by any terrain, and the shooting preparation time is extremely short. Usually, the operator only needs to carry the rocket launcher to aim, and the ammunition hand pushes the rocket from the rear and pulls out the safety. The whole time does not exceed five seconds.

At the beginning, the Messina tank soldiers didn't pay attention to the infantry carrying the small pipes. As a result, when the rockets flying with flames easily pierced the armor and killed all the tank soldiers, they knew that the opponent was absolutely Not to be trifled with.

Under the heavy anti-tank weapons of the Hualan Army, the soldiers of the Messina Tank Brigade finally became terrified. For the first time, they discovered that their seemingly indestructible tanks had such a vulnerable side.The Messina tankers turned their vehicles around and retreated one after another, but the clumsy Mark IV tanks were too slow. Once the wide side armor was exposed, they would be attacked by the Hualan army on the ground.As a result, the Messina tank brigade had no chance of escaping back at all, and they were all reimbursed on the battlefield. Only the last dozen or so tanks managed to escape back to their own positions. It can be said that only one charge, the only tank brigade of the Messina army It can be undone.

The tank brigade suffered a catastrophe, but Admiral Guktan discovered a situation. The opponent did not have large-caliber artillery.After discovering this problem, Guktan thought he had found the opponent's death spot. He ordered the whole army to stick to the positions at the edge of the city.

The field guns carried by the Hualan army were too small to reach the opponent's artillery positions, which allowed the Messina army to cover with artillery fire unscrupulously, forcing the Hualan army to postpone the attack.Seeing that the opponent did not launch an attack, Admiral Guktan thought he had a plan, and he commanded several artillery positions to shell in turn to block the opponent's possible charge route.

The first thousand and 370 chapters nine to reduce losses

The shelling of the Messina army did bring some troubles to the Hualan army, but it was a big mistake for Guktan to think that such a method could stop the Hualan army from attacking.With Su Jiye's record, if it was difficult to overcome just because of such a small obstacle, he would not personally lead the team to attack the city of Messina.

More than half an hour after the Messina army had the upper hand and bombarded the Hualan army with artillery in turn, a large fleet came from far to near. It was a H-4 tactical bomber with a double release layout.Originally, the Hualan Dispatch Army did not have an air force, because the air force needed space and had high requirements for logistics. Zhao Shouhong believed that it was worthless to deploy an air force there when the White Eagle Kingdom blocked Colombia.

However, after the situation in the Eastern Ocean reversed, the logistics supply situation in the Columbia area improved rapidly, and the Hualan Air Force quickly dispatched a powerful air force there.After this front-line air force went into battle, it bombed the White Eagle Army and the Messina Army violently, causing heavy losses to the opponent, and the White Eagle Army had to decide to deploy the air force to participate in the battle.However, the air force of the White Eagle Army is now participating in the war on the islands in the Eastern Ocean or the Saar Empire, and it is difficult to draw out troops for a while, so the air force that has entered Messina is still being formed locally.

It was difficult for the White Eagle Air Force to enter Messina for a while, and Messina did not have an air force, which made the Hualan Air Force even more rampant.This time, after receiving Su Jiye's order, several frontline airfields of the Hualan Air Force responded quickly, dispatching more than 40 H-4 bombers to assist in the battle, and even did not send escort fighter jets.

Seeing the approaching bomber fleet, Guktan's expression changed drastically. The eye-catching red five-star aircraft emblem reminded him that these were all Hualan Air Force aircraft.Guktan really wanted to give an order to make the artillery evade immediately, but the speed of the plane was too fast, and it was too late for him to give the order.

According to the order when they took off, these bombers focused on taking care of the artillery unit of the Messina Army. A series of cluster bombs fell into the artillery positions, blowing up the majestic cannons just now into a pile of scrap metal.The Messina artillery also suffered heavy losses. They had never experienced bombing and did not know the meaning of the arrival of the plane, and the artillery received the order to retreat too late, and it was too late when they planned to retreat.The result was a massacre of valuable artillery, nearly torn apart by cluster bombs.

For the country of Messina, where the literacy rate is extremely low, it is not easy to train these artillerymen. They need to learn at least geometric knowledge such as ballistics to meet the standards of artillerymen. This is not something that illiterates can do.On weekdays, these Messinian artillerymen were regarded as treasures, and they refused to take them out easily. That is to say, Admiral Guktan thought that there was no danger today, so he sent the artillerymen to cover the Hualan Army with firepower. It turned into a pile of corpses in an hour.

There is still an artillery warehouse in the city of Messina, and the artillery and ammunition are very sufficient. Unfortunately, they no longer have artillery to operate.Naturally, it is impossible for bombers to only attack the artillery. A large number of cluster bombs also caused heavy damage to the infantry. Although the Messina army learned about the trench warfare in the western continent from intelligence, it did not study it carefully.

The so-called details determine success or failure. The trenches in the Western Continent are usually dug in zigzags, with a right-angle bend every few meters, in order to block the flying shrapnel and shock waves.However, the Messina army only knew the general outline of trench warfare, but they were not clear about these details. As a result, the trenches they dug were long and straight, and they could not stop the bombs falling into the trenches at all.

Such negligence caused a large number of casualties. When the cluster bombs fell on the positions of the Messina army, the bombs that exploded in the trenches set off a violent shock wave.The shock wave raged in the trench with a large amount of shrapnel wrapped around it, and bones and tendons were broken wherever it went, and the soldiers of Messina suffered huge casualties.

After the bombing, the Hualan Army's artillery fire followed. Su Jiye's artillery position bullying Messina had been taken away, and he ordered the whole army to push the field artillery to the forward position, and bombarded the Messina Army's defense line, blowing the opponent's back. .The Messina army had never encountered such a fierce fire coverage, and the officers had no experience in anti-cannon, so they could only watch their soldiers being bombed.

In desperation, the Messina army could only take the last step and withdraw the troops to the city to prepare for street fighting.From the perspective of the Messina Army, street fighting is no problem for them who are familiar with the geography. Besides, they have prepared in advance. Not only are there temporary sandbag positions and barbed wire fences in the city, but some sturdy buildings have also been repaired as firepower points.Each department of the Messina army has its own defense area, and each branch takes its own responsibility in a battalion unit and sticks to its own position.

The Hualan army quickly entered the city, but just after attacking half a street, they were beaten back by the opponent's intensive firepower.The three-dimensional firepower network upstairs and downstairs made up for the lack of firepower of the Messina army's rifles, and the too narrow reception was not conducive to the deployment of troops. The Hualan army withdrew to avoid casualties.

Seeing that the attack was blocked, Su Jiye ordered the whole army to rest in the defense line outside the city. He personally went to the front line to observe the enemy's situation.After inspecting it, Su Jiye sneered and said, "The people of Messina want to fight with us in the streets. They really blinded him. We have no obligation to keep the city intact."

He turned to Zhou Yu, the commander of the artillery regiment, and said, "According to the agreement, the city of Messina will be handed over to the new government, and we will not stay here for a long time. It is not advisable to sacrifice our soldiers in vain for a city that is not ours." ,Do you get me?"

"Understood." Zhou Yu's eyes lit up, he turned and walked along the traffic trench.

Su Jiye said to the staff officer next to him: "Convey the order to encircle three and one missing, and give up the north side for the Messina army to escape."

"Understood." The staff officer also left quickly, but Chen Shijun frowned and said in a low voice: "Old Su, are you going to destroy this city?"

"Brother Chen, we are soldiers. What we need to focus on is how to achieve the greatest victory with the least cost. This is what the principal taught us." Su Jiye said with a smile: "Leave others to worry about other people's cities. I just need to win." That's enough." Chen Shijun is also a graduate of Zhongchuan Army University, he also received the education of doing everything for victory, and he did not refute what Su Jiye said.

"Ruler [-], Xu Jin shoots, two bases shelling, start." Zhou Yu gave an order, and a large cloud of smoke immediately rose from the artillery unit, and the shells came out one after another, flying towards the vast city of Messina .Soon those strange red warhead shells fell into the city, making a dull explosion sound that was not too loud, and then large clouds of smoke rose, and the soaring flames immediately ignited everything around them.

The first thousand and 380 chapters burn the city

The blazing flames ablated everything, thatch, dead branches, door panels and even walls, anything that could burn or couldn't burn, all of a sudden began to burn.The soldiers of the Messinian army who were hiding in the houses and waiting for the opponent to attack suddenly found that they were surrounded by flames, and when they wanted to retreat, it was too late.

The blazing flames were thousands of degrees high, with the power to burn everything, and burned rapidly along the wind direction, while the shells that continued to shoot in a gradual manner continued to add new ignition points, making it difficult for the Messina army to defend against.The white phosphorous incendiary bomb finally revealed its ferocious face again, and the Messina army also saw this indescribable horror for the first time.

The artillery brought by Su Jiye was insufficient, and it was impossible to surround the city and fire incendiary bombs on all sides, so he just chose the south of the city as the artillery firing position.In fact, even with enough power, Su Jiye would not be able to order incendiary bombs to be fired from all sides. After all, such weapons are harmful to the peace and cannot be used easily.And once it is used, it has to leave a trace of life for the other party, especially when there are still millions of people in the city.

This time the artillery was only fired from the south of the city, and the greatest effect could be achieved by taking advantage of the south wind that was blowing.In addition, the flames can also drive the soldiers and civilians in the city to retreat northward, allowing them to leave the complex and fortified city, which can reduce losses caused by street fighting.

The power of the white phosphorous bomb was really strong enough, and those Messinian soldiers who stood in the south of the city and prepared to resist soon couldn't stand it anymore.Except for some unprepared soldiers who were burned to death in the early stage, others evacuated early when they saw the flames from far to near.

Just as waves of white phosphorous bombs extended towards the center of the city, the south wind suddenly became stronger and stronger, and soon surpassed the level of a sixth-level wind.The wind assisted the fire, and the fire borrowed the power of the wind. The overwhelming fire instantly accelerated the trend of spreading. When the artillery regiment stopped shooting, the fire was already difficult to stop.

The fast-spreading fire raged in the city of Messina. The city of Messina, mostly low thatched houses, was a good firewood pile, which was quickly ignited by the hot flames.The situation that was still under the control of the government soon collapsed, and the people began to retreat to the north with the old and the young, and the soldiers were not easy to stop this.These are all my father, brothers and sisters. How could the soldiers of Messina, who were born in the local area, stop their relatives and watch them burn to death.

A large number of civilians broke through to the north, but the expected massacre did not occur, and the people who supported the old and the young quickly left the city of Messina and entered the wilderness.Compared with the fleeing civilians, the soldiers of the Messina army were not so free. In order not to be wiped out in the wild by powerful enemies, the Messina army ordered the soldiers to fight the fire.

At this time, the Hualan Army's artillery fire had stopped, without the support of the white phosphorous bombs, the flames were no longer so raging, but because of the increasing wind, the fire was still difficult to control.The Messina army tried their best, but only slowed down the spread of the fire, but could not completely stop the spread of the fire.It wasn't until experienced military officers proposed to establish isolation zones to prevent the spread of the fire that the top military officials suddenly realized.

The Messina army hastily destroyed some residential buildings and established a isolation zone without fire starters, which gradually extinguished the fire. However, at this time, the burned area of ​​Messina City had exceeded [-]%, and the remaining blocks were not enough for them. It's street fighting.

Stepping on the slightly warm embers, the well-armed Hualan army began to do so. They quickly advanced among the ruined walls, and soon approached the isolation zone.Facing the Hualan army rushing up, Gu Ketan seemed to order to continue to stand firm, but he knew in his heart that the opponent dared to bombard the city with incendiary bombs, so he had no intention of accepting it completely.In other words, the strategy of the scorched-earth war of resistance is useless to the enemy, because the enemy will not cherish their own cities and civilians, and all they want is victory.

After communicating with the government department, Guktan finally decided to surrender, using the surrender of the army to attract the attention of the Hualan Army and cover the retreat of the government department.Knowing that nothing could be done, President Cardenas had to order government officials to disguise themselves as civilians and flee northward with the retreating people.

The Hualan army did not stop the fleeing people, which gave government officials an opportunity to take advantage of it, but it was difficult for the army to escape.Gu Ketan led the remaining more than 1 Messina officers and soldiers to declare their surrender and accept the opponent's disarm. Su Jiye was able to quickly occupy the city of Messina.

The capture of the capital was a huge psychological blow to the Messina army. President Cardenas, who had escaped from the sky, knew very well that if the city of Messina was not recovered, his side would be completely passive.Once they suffer several defeats due to low morale, the Messina army will inevitably collapse completely, and the situation will be irreversible by then.

In order to prevent the army from collapsing, President Cardenas had to mobilize a large number of reserve troops from the north to fight in the city of Messina, hoping to recapture the city. General Patton on the southern defense line was also forced to mobilize an army. Together with the six divisions of Messina, they encircled the city of Messina, hoping to use the advantage of the north-south attack to eliminate the lone army that conquered Messina and capture Su Jiye, who made it difficult for them to defeat.

Regarding the approach of the White Eagle Army and the Messina Army, Su Jiye naturally considered it before attacking.The reactions of Patton and Cardenas were all in his calculations, so when he got the exact information and the enemy army dispatched a large number of troops to the city of Messina, the Hualan Army began the next step of the battle plan.

Churumuko is a small city on the banks of the Balsas River, with an area of ​​only a dozen square kilometers. There is nothing surprising about it, not to mention foreigners, even if the natives of Messina do not live nearby. Difficult to know about this place.But starting today, this place will become a famous historical node, a place where the famous general Patton was defeated.

At four o'clock in the morning on December 1941, 12, the White Wolf Mercenary Group suddenly launched an attack on Churumuko, which was jointly stationed by the White Eagle Army and the Messina Army.After preparing for the shelling of thousands of artillery pieces, more than 7 tanks and assault guns belonging to the White Wolf Mercenary Regiment rushed out of their positions and charged towards the positions of the White Eagle Army and the Messina Army.

Soon the Japanese army followed closely behind, launched a full-line counterattack against the enemy's positions, and used almost all armored vehicles.After Su Jiye attacked Messina, in order to strengthen his offensive capabilities, among the three major mercenary regiments that had been fighting in the south of the New World, except for the Gurkha brigade who was good at mountain warfare, they were left in the south to encircle and suppress the remaining White Eagle Army squads. In addition, both the Japanese Army and the White Wolf Mercenary Group participated in the battle in the north with the Hualan dispatched army.

The first thousand and 380 chapters of the mercenary breakthrough

In this battle, the Hualan Army undertook the violent attack of the White Eagle Army on the eastern defense line, while on the relatively relaxed western defense line, the two mercenary troops fought mostly against the Messina government army.Su Jiye resorted to tactics in response to this situation. He used his personal risk to attract most of the enemy's attention. After mobilizing the enemy's attention, he chose this weak link as the breakthrough point.

Button is not a fool, on the contrary, he is a person with all the qualities of a famous general. If he is exposed to flaws, the only thing he can take advantage of is his fixed thinking.In the eyes of people in the Western Continent, mercenaries are a group of troops who fight for money and don't risk their lives.When fighting with the wind, they can advance triumphantly, and once they are in a deadly battle, they will quickly withdraw, because they fight for money. When money conflicts with life, they will not hesitate to give up money for life. If you lose your life, no amount of money will help.
