Romanian Eagle

Sackdorf, who launched the charge, shouted to the soldiers behind him as he charged forward.

Come on, don't stop.

Near the rifle range of the position, Sackdorf continued to command his own soldiers.

Bend down and pay attention to the front position.

Despite the command of the company commander Sackdorf, some soldiers were still being hit, and he was worried in his eyes, but this time Osman's position was too powerful, and they rushed to a distance of 200 meters from the position. Can't move.

Lule Burgas commander Alsa Pasha, who was watching the battle behind the Ottoman positions, nodded with satisfaction when he saw that the Bulgarian army was blocked in front of the position. Before the 1st Army attacked, he had already transferred the troops in the rear to be supported. Now that there are nearly 50,000 people in Lule Burgas, it is of course impossible to attack the divisions in turn.

The first division commander, Major General Toshewei, who was watching the battle, saw that his troops were blocked from attacking, and picked up the phone next to him and ordered the artillery commander. The artillery can suppress the second and third-line positions with all their strength, and they cannot be reinforced. The task of suppressing the Ottoman artillery is left to the military artillery. You only need to suppress the infantry in the position.

Under the constant attack of the artillery of the first division, the second regiment barely reached the front line and could not move, and had to retreat.

In the headquarters of the First Army, Lieutenant General Sirkutinchev also saw the plight of the First Division in his eyes.

The Ottoman position on the opposite side is still very strong. We will suffer a lot from this fight. Major General Kazdius said that he was in the predicament of the first army's offensive.

Hearing the words of his chief of staff, Lieutenant General Sirkutinchev said. I have seen that Osman's deployment is to strengthen the empty rear of the first-line positions. If it weren't for the terrain constraints, I would have let him know the end of this.

Major General Kazdev also saw it, but in Lule Burgas, the place is stuck in the mountain pass, with mountains on both sides blocking the battalion company because of its small size and the lack of heavy weapons such as artillery. Over the mountain, the defending army has been waiting in front of you for a long time. In addition, the artillery is now weak to suppress the defenders who have positions, so Alsa Pasha dares to put a large number of troops on the first and second line positions.

Although the Ottoman army is still defending well, I already have a way to break through their defenses.

Hearing that the commander-in-chief, Lieutenant General Sirkutinchev, had a solution, Major General Kazdius asked curiously. What are you going to do?

Facing the question of his chief of staff, Lieutenant General Sirkutinchev said his own way.

Tomorrow I plan to concentrate the troops of the first and third divisions. Except for the necessary defensive troops, all the others will be put into the battlefield. The artillery is also doing its best to ensure the suppression of the opponents. I plan to attack the front-line positions on the opposite side. Fighting is much better.”

Hearing Lieutenant General Sirkutinchev's one-shot deal, Chief of Staff Major General Kazdev asked worriedly. Is this in a hurry?

Lieutenant General Sirkutinchev heard the intention of the chief of staff, and used such an extreme method from the beginning. If they did not break the defense line, they would be greatly injured, and the casualties of this attack mode would not be small.

He explained to his chief of staff. This is the best way I've come up with, and there's nothing more effective than this.

Then do as you say.

Major General Kazdev accepted his proposal after a moment's thought.

Soon telegrams to change the attack pattern in the First Army were sent to the headquarters of the two divisions. Faced with the orders of their superiors, the two division commanders had nothing to say, and both were preparing for tomorrow's attack.

The second regiment of the seventh company only retreated at 5:00. The seventh company lost 57 soldiers in the previous attack. , and sat down to the side to rest.

Second Lieutenant Bodnov also sat down beside him and said to his company commander. The firepower on the opposite side is too fierce, and we have lost a lot of money.

Faced with the situation Bodnov said, Sackdorf had no good solution. After all, the loss was so big this time, and only 182 of the 9 people returned to their positions when they attacked, so I had to say. There's no way to do this, I hope I can lose a little less.

Captain Sackdorf is on the yard?

While the two were talking about the loss of the Seventh Company, the regiment's messenger came to the Seventh Company to look for him.

Suckerdorf stood up and spoke to the messenger. I'm here, what's the matter?

The regiment commander ordered that the entire regiment attack the left-wing position early tomorrow morning.

Captain Sackdorf replied after hearing the order it was the regiment commander. Okay, our Seventh Company will be ready tomorrow morning.

After seeing the regimental commander leave, Lieutenant Bodnov came over.

It looks like there will be a big move tomorrow.

It seems that Lieutenant Bodnov heard it too, Captain Sackdorf said to his deputy with a stern face. Okay, don't talk about the actions above, or you will suffer.

After a night's rest, the First Army was ready for battle the next day.

At 8:30 in the morning, with the order of Lieutenant General Sirkutinchev, the commander in chief, the 267 artillery pieces of the First Army opened fire on the front-line positions.

This fierce artillery fire caught the Ottoman troops on the front line by surprise, and the casualties soared. The Ottoman artillery, unwilling to be attacked by their own army, also joined the counterattack. As a result, the Bulgarian artillery did not care about their own safety at all, and kept shelling the defensive positions, which confused the commander of the defense.

After a flurry of shelling, Bulgarian artillery was now bombarding between the first and second line positions, intercepting possible reinforcements. The 1st and 3rd Divisions charged, except for one regiment's strength. Seeing the actions of the Bulgarian army, Alsa Pasha was greatly surprised and cried out.

It turned out that some of the troops in the front-line positions were withdrawn by him last night, and he planned to give these soldiers a good rest. Now facing the decisive charge of the First Army, the troops who stayed behind could not be transported at all. Now he can only order the troops that returned last night to be strengthened to the second-line positions. At the same time, he ordered the artillery to give up the counterattack against the Bulgarian artillery and to bombard the first and third divisions that were charging.

After being intercepted by artillery fire, the Bulgarian army that launched the charge appeared in front of the first-line position, and the Austrian soldiers on the position were also fighting back with all their strength. However, there were too many soldiers in the charge, and they were completely unable to counterattack. The Bulgarian army suffered casualties and rushed into the position.

A Bulgarian soldier roared with a ferocious face, restrained the Austrian soldier in front of him, and stabbed the bayonet into the stomach of the Austrian soldier with a thrust. The Austrian soldier who was stabbed by him fell softly into the trench, his eyes gradually losing color.

Just when the Bulgarian soldier was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen. It turned out that another Austrian soldier took advantage of his unpreparedness and stabbed his lower abdomen with a bayonet from the side. In the trenches, next to the soldier who was stabbed to death by himself.

From the moment the Bulgarian soldiers rushed into the position, a hand-to-hand battle began. However, in the face of a steady stream of defenders, the Ottoman troops on the front lines also began to show their lack of support.

This made Alsa Pasha secretly anxious at the headquarters behind the position, but he could not do anything in the face of the intercepting fire of the Bulgarian artillery. In addition, sending troops to support now is a fueling tactic, and it is impossible to be an opponent of the Baojun. He can only hope that the second-line positions can be defended.

The Ottoman army, who could not get reinforcements, began to flee back after struggling for a while.

Don't stop, keep charging.

Following the orders of the various commanders, the Bulgarian army followed the retreating Ottoman army and launched an attack on the second-line positions. The Ottoman troops in the second-line position saw the Bulgarian soldiers who were following the retreating friendly forces and fired snipers. However, due to the cover of their own people and their concerns, few Bao soldiers were hit.

Get out of the way.

The Ottoman troops on the ground shouted.

The retreating soldiers who had recovered their senses began to retreat to both sides, revealing the guards who followed them. This increased the casualties of the Bulgarian army a lot, but the distance between the two was already very close, and the Bulgarian army broke into the second line of defense despite the casualties.

The 7th Company also followed the main force into the position. Captain Sackerdorf's pistol had long since been lost while attacking the first-line positions. He waved his saber and shouted to an Ottoman soldier in front of him. Go to hell. The Ottoman soldier facing him raised his rifle and blocked his slash. Sackdorf kicked him down with a kick, and again swung the saber, killing the Ottoman soldier. After Sackdorf defeated the soldier, he rushed into the fray again.

In the hand-to-hand combat, Bulgaria's training advantages gradually emerged, and they often attacked each other in small groups. The disadvantage of the Ottoman army's lack of training was also magnified, and they were not as high morale as the Bulgarian army, and they were gradually at a disadvantage.

Alza Pasha, who was watching from behind the defensive position, was very anxious. He had already put all the troops he could draw into the second-line position. Now the third-line positions are almost empty, and now he can only pray for the protection of Allah.

Unfortunately, this is the world of science, and neither Allah nor God can bless him. The Ottoman army in the second-line position also showed a lack of support, and Alsa Pasha knew that he had no choice at all.

Sure enough, the Ottoman army had begun to flee under the pressure of the Bulgarian army. This made the other Ottoman soldiers even more demoralized, and the Bao army saw this phenomenon and the attack became more violent. By 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the Ottoman army was finally unable to return to the sky and the whole line collapsed. Seeing the Ottoman soldiers fleeing all over the mountains and fields, the guards shouted loudly. Ulla

In the battle that decided the ownership of Western Thrace, Bulgaria invested 190,000 troops, while the Ottomans invested 140,000. After a few days of fighting, the Bulgarian victory ended. Of these, the Bulgarians suffered 27,000 casualties, while the Ottomans suffered 56,000 casualties (23,000 were lost in the retreat). And the Ottoman army's ordnance was also lost a lot, Bulgaria just captured 134 artillery pieces, which effectively supplemented their losses. Now, except for Adrianople, which is still in the hands of the Ottomans, the rest of Western Thrace will not be able to withstand the Bulgarian attack.

PS Mantou didn't expect that people don't like to describe the battles of other countries. Next time, I must briefly talk about it. It's still various requests. The uncles are pitiful for the poor steamed buns, so let's count the tickets and subscribe.
