Warlords: Rise of the System
Chapter 57: Defeat Again
The bandits' attacking forces, risking being bombarded by their own artillery shells, advanced quickly toward the frontier positions guarded by the warlord's troops.
Although the bandits' move was risky, it achieved remarkable results. They were not ambushed along the way and quickly arrived not far from their position.
After seeing all this, several commanders who had been watching from behind became extremely anxious.
"As soon as the enemy's artillery fire stops, send the second echelon to take over immediately. We must not let the enemy occupy the position."
The order was quickly passed down, and all that was left was to wait for the bandits' artillery fire to stop.
The bandits' attacking forces were also waiting for their artillery fire to stop.
Many of the bandits were injured by their own artillery fire because they advanced too far.
This time, the bandits bombarded for 20 minutes before stopping.
As soon as the bombardment stopped, the troops on both sides immediately started a fierce battle.
The second echelon of the warlord troops had been prepared long ago and launched a fierce attack on the bandits' attacking forces.
The bandits' attacking force had been waiting at the edge of the position for a long time. As soon as the artillery fire stopped, they rushed directly into the position.
The two sides engaged in close combat in the positions.
The battle was extremely brutal, with people falling every second.
The soldiers of the warlord's army did not retreat, and used their flesh and blood to resist the attacks of the bandits.
However, the bandits had the cover of tanks and armored vehicles, and their weapons and equipment were also relatively sophisticated.
For a moment, the bandits' attacking forces gained the upper hand.
However, the warlord's troops did not retreat at all.
With a fearless spirit, they fought a life-and-death battle with the bandits.
Many soldiers directly carried explosives and launched deadly explosions on the bandits' tanks and armored vehicles.
The bandit soldiers were equally ferocious and fought fiercely with the warlord troops without fear of death.
They also fought hand-to-hand with the warlord's troops without fear of life and death, and the battle was fierce!
The bandits' follow-up troops were also advancing forward, and the situation became increasingly tense.
Several division commanders who were observing the battle situation in the rear were extremely anxious and worried.
"Convey my order immediately! Let all the people in the third echelon go up and drive the bandits out of the position!" Several division commanders gave the order decisively.
The order spread throughout the battlefield as fast as lightning. The warlord soldiers of the third echelon moved upon hearing the order and rushed to the place of fierce fighting like a tiger descending from a mountain.
With firm belief in their hearts, they threw themselves into this life-and-death struggle without hesitation.
The battle became fierce, people kept falling down, blood dyed the whole ground red, and corpses covered the entire battlefield.
The addition of the third echelon boosted the morale of the warlords. They fought a desperate battle with the bandits, and everyone tried their best to defend their positions.
The bandits' attack was gradually hindered; they did not expect the warlord troops to be so tenacious.
However, the bandits would not give up easily. They adjusted their tactics and tried to find a breakthrough.
With the addition of the third echelon of soldiers, the warlord's troops had a huge advantage in numbers.
At this time, many warlords' soldiers moved light and heavy machine guns out of the air-raid shelters, set them up on the front lines, and blocked the bandits' follow-up troops.
Without the reinforcement of follow-up troops, the bandit troops that broke into the position were being eliminated bit by bit.
As time passed, the bandits' follow-up troops were completely suppressed and could hardly move forward.
After unremitting efforts and a lot of casualties, we finally wiped out all the bandit troops that had advanced into the position.
Dozens of tanks and armored vehicles that rushed into the position were all destroyed.
The bandits' fierce attack ended in a disastrous defeat.
The system's voice also sounded in Lu Tianhao's mind.
"Ding! Kill 68 bandit soldiers and get double reward of 1400 points.
Friendly forces killed 135 bandit soldiers and received 1350 points.
The bandits did not launch a fierce attack on Lu Tianhao's defensive position, but instead fired back from a distance.
In order to kill the bandit soldiers and gain points, Lu Tianhao sent Wei Wuwei's sniper platoon to the front line and asked them to snipe the bandit soldiers.
I didn't expect the bandits to hide so well. I only shot and killed 68 of them, and there should have been a junior officer among them.
In today's fierce battle, quite a few bandits died, but Lu Tianhao did not get the corresponding points.
According to preliminary statistics, the total number of casualties in Jun Kuo's troops exceeded 10,000.
After counting, the number of bodies left by the bandits on the battlefield actually reached over ten thousand.
In this fierce battle, both sides were almost evenly matched.
This was also the first time that the warlord's troops achieved such brilliant results.
In the battle with the bandits, the casualty ratio is almost the same. If the fight continues like this, the bandits will definitely not be able to bear it.
When the battle report from the southern front reached the Marshal's Mansion.
Jiang Guangshi and his men were also shocked. Not only did the southern front repel the bandits' attack, but they also made the bandits pay such a heavy price.
This is definitely a great victory.
The Secretary General said, "When did the troops on the southern front become so powerful?
They were actually on equal terms with the bandits' troops.
The ratio of casualties is almost 1 to 1, which is really not easy.
Alas, our northern frontier has a poor defense. "
The slight joy that Jiang Guangshi had just felt disappeared in an instant.
The Secretary General continued, "Although we have provided a lot of weapons and ammunition to the troops on the northern front, the gap between their weapons and equipment and those of the bandit troops is still too great.
The soldiers on the northern front are now basically fighting for their lives just to hold their positions.
A large number of soldiers fell every minute and every second, and the battlefield almost became a meat grinder.
The battle is not over yet. According to reports from our observers, the number of casualties on the northern front has far exceeded 10,000.
If the number of casualties continues like this, all the reinforcements on the northern front will be wiped out within three days.
Once the outer positions on the northern front are captured by the bandits, the next step will be a battle between us and the bandits to defend the city."
Jiang Guangshi sighed, "It's not easy to fight a city defense battle, our people are everywhere in the city.
Once they break into the city, we will be in a passive position in the fight.
The bandits can attack at will without caring about the lives of the people.
But our soldiers are different. They will consider the safety of the people and will have many concerns when fighting.
The outer positions had to be defended, and the people in the city began to ask them to move westward.
Once our outer positions can no longer be defended and there are no civilians left in the city, we can fight with all our might."
The Secretary-General and other generals knew very well that once the people in the city were allowed to move westward, it would mean that the Marshal would give up Kyoto Prefecture.
An adjutant said, "The situation on the southern front has now stabilized.
Can we transfer Lu Tianhao's troops and have him reinforce the northern front?"
