Chapter 98: The Extremely Difficult Battle (4)

  The enemy swarmed in like a tide at the gap, and all the automatic weapons opened fire almost simultaneously, killing the crowd of enemies rushing to the front in an instant. The enemy immediately began to panic and scatter in all directions.

  Unfortunately, their speed was not as fast as bullets, and many people had not even taken three steps before being directly hit and falling to the ground. Some enemies were still able to use their companions' bodies to cleverly avoid the automatic weapons' attacks.

  At this time an enemy shouted loudly: "Don't move, none of you move!"

  This person is very familiar with our automatic weapons and knows that as long as they don't move, they won't be attacked. His shouting actually made many enemies listen to him, and for a while, most of the enemies were lying on the ground motionless. A few who were thinking of escaping were quickly eliminated by the automatic weapons, but most of the enemies still hadn't been annihilated.

  Upon seeing this situation, I immediately said to the row of soldiers: "The enemy does not dare to move, immediately use rocket projectiles, indiscriminately attacking the enemy at the gap."

  As soon as my order was given, dozens of rockets flew out. The evidence had long been prepared for the rocket, just waiting for my command to be issued, and immediately gave the enemy a non-discriminatory cover attack. Most of the enemies at the gap were blown away, and the remaining enemies were either dead or injured. Three or four hundred enemies were defeated by our indiscriminate attack.

  I watched as the rocket-propelled grenade blasted our enemies into the air and thought to myself: "This time, see if you dare attack us from here again."

  "Comrade instructor, this time we've given the enemy a blow that's enough to make them drink a whole pot of wine. I think they're almost completely wiped out. We've held our ground and we've won..."

  I frowned slightly and shouted loudly: "The enemy has not been completely eliminated, it's too early to be happy now."

  A row of eyes suddenly fell silent, looking at me with a hint of discontent in their gaze.

  "I patiently explained: 'Just now our strategy was successful, although many enemies were killed, but can you guarantee that there are no more enemy troops outside? Don't be careless and don't underestimate the enemy. Now let the soldiers divide into two teams, take turns resting, and prepare for the next battle.'"

  The squad leader responded with a loud "Yes" and turned to make arrangements. I then observed the enemy at the gap, making sure that not many of them could move, before saying to the squad leader: "Closely monitor the enemy's movements, once you discover the enemy's follow-up troops, use our previous tactics to annihilate them at the gap."

  A burst of laughter, and he said: "I know what to do now. The instructor's tactics are truly unbeatable, the enemy is not even a match for you!"

  I shook my head: "If the enemy uses the kind of weapon that destroyed the courtyard wall and gate to attack us, we will also suffer heavy losses. Fortunately, the enemy's goal is not to destroy this place, otherwise our tactics would not have been effective. Don't be careless, keep a close eye on the enemy's every move."

  "Yes, instructor!"

  I turned around and left the first row of positions, came to the second row of positions to take a look, felt that it was still relatively stable for the time being, and then directly arrived at the third row of positions.

  The third row of leaders is taken over by the original deputy leader, and it will be a bit unfamiliar to command, so I need to take a closer look at the situation here.

  The enemy's offensive intensity here is far less than that of a defensive zone, but I estimated that there are at least 300 enemies outside the courtyard wall.

  Only twenty or so of the three rows of warriors who could still fight were left, relying on the advantageous terrain and those "robots", as well as new-style weapons, to barely hold off the enemy outside the courtyard wall.

  I observed the situation here, and at the moment of secretly worrying, I suddenly heard a buzzing sound coming from the sky. I immediately looked up to see three small black dots flying towards us. I was overjoyed, knowing that the warplanes Chen Lao had mentioned were arriving, so I quickly contacted Ding Hui to ask him to indicate the priority targets for the warplanes to attack.

  The priority targets for attack, of course, are the most difficult defensive zones to defend and also the densely packed enemies on the periphery. The warplanes almost started dropping bombs as soon as they received the target, and in the deafening explosion, several originally very dangerous peripheral enemies were blown up with countless casualties. The remaining enemies could no longer attack us and began to flee in all directions.

  The bombs were dropped, and the machine guns on the plane began to roar, targeting our peripheral enemies with a fierce attack. Many enemies were killed under my eyelids, with blood splashing high into the air.

  However, some enemies were very clear that escaping was not the best option at this time. On the contrary, counterattacking was the ultimate way to save lives. So many rockets flew towards our fighter jets with long tails, and some enemies directly used machine guns to sweep the planes, trying to shoot down our planes.

  Fortunately, our fighter jets are not the kind of completely defenseless forces during World War II. The enemy's rocket shells flew into the high altitude and were all avoided by our fighter jets. If the enemy had portable anti-aircraft missiles for individual soldiers, our fighter jets might have to fly even higher to avoid being hit. However, the rocket shells currently used by the enemy are completely impossible to concentrate on our fighter jets. On the contrary, our fighter pilots were enraged and kept shooting at these enemies who launched rocket shells, almost pressing them down while fighting.

  Only three fighter jets brought great damage to the enemy and relieved our pressure. Taking this opportunity, I decisively ordered a halt to all "mechanical" operations, and all personnel who could still fight immediately went up to the wall to annihilate the enemy's living forces as much as possible.

  The final victory of the war still depends on human efforts. So, our Long Dragon Company warriors, as long as we can still fight, will launch a full-scale attack, search for enemies in the courtyard and conduct precise shooting to try to eliminate as many enemies as possible.

  The enemy is now suppressed by our warplanes and has no more energy to attack our Dragon Protection Regiment. This is the moment for our Dragon Protection Regiment to counterattack. The planes are fleeting, and we must seize the opportunity to strike back quickly.

  With the coordination of us and the fighter jets, we who were originally at a disadvantage suddenly turned the tables and suppressed the enemy. The weapons in our hands killed one enemy after another, and although the enemy was numerous, they could not withstand such consumption, and soon some people began to retreat, wanting to leave our attack range.

  Unfortunately, they come easily, but it's hard to leave. Our weapon attack distance, from a few meters to several thousand meters, they want to escape our attack range, very difficult, very difficult.

  Upon witnessing this situation, I immediately issued an order: "Everyone, launch a segmented attack at once. Attack the enemy within your weapon's range according to your own weapon's range."

  The warriors heard my command and immediately began to adjust their tactics, firing in sections, trying to annihilate the enemy as much as possible here.

  Seeing that we were about to win, I slightly put my mind at ease. A row of long calls came to me: "Instructor, the enemy has started attacking again, should we retreat and use 'robots' to block the enemy?"

  I frowned and said: "Now that our warplanes are covering us, it's just right to attack the enemy. How can we retreat? Is the enemy's offensive too fierce?"

  "One of the veterans spoke up loudly: 'The enemy probably has around two hundred men, and they seem to have just arrived. Their combat strength is very strong. We are too few in number, I'm afraid we can't withstand them.'"

  I hesitated for a moment, knowing that the enemy was still using a row of array as the main attack direction. I calmly said: "Immediately use incendiary bombs to stop the enemy's advance. Then give me all your artillery shells and absolutely do not let the enemy break through your defensive area."

  One of them hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "Our warriors are too few, there is no one to open fire..."

  My heart skipped a beat, and I immediately said: "Then first give me all the incendiary bombs to stop the enemy's advance."

  A row of long-standing "yes" ended the call. I took a look at the three rows of array that were not enough, and sighed silently, shouting loudly: "Comrades, our reinforcements should be here soon, everyone will hold on for a while, and when the reinforcements arrive, we will win."

  Many warriors didn't even have time to listen to me, they were busy blocking the enemy. I also knew that my words were of no great use at this time, so I turned around and ran directly to a row of trenches. At this time, there really weren't many warriors left on the row of trenches who could still fight, I took a rough look, and the personnel who were still holding on to the battle were less than ten people.

  Fortunately, we had a lot of special incendiary bombs. The warriors abandoned their guns and other weapons, and with all their might, they threw the incendiary bombs at the enemy in front of us, making it impossible for the enemy to advance even half a step, temporarily blocking the enemy's advance. However, the range of the incendiary bomb launch was limited, and many enemies avoided our incendiary bomb attack.

  The laser gun that I didn't want to use for now was also taken out by two warriors and is being installed and debugged.

  I knew this was the most critical moment, so I also defaulted to the warriors' actions, went forward to help install the heavy laser launcher, and immediately let the warriors start attacking the enemy.

  The laser launcher, after a period of charging and startup, quickly began its attack. The laser beam that was fired out directly killed an entire row of enemies. As the warriors operated it, the laser launcher continuously attacked the enemy, amazingly annihilating many enemies in a very short time.

  The warriors let out a collective sigh of relief, each using their own weapons to counterattack. I also pulled out my laser gun, taking aim at the remaining enemies and firing in succession, killing more than a dozen of the surging foes.

  The enemy's bullets and rockets flew past my side or exploded, but I was also injured by them. Fortunately, these injuries were minor and did not truly affect my combat ability.

  A row of warriors were killed or wounded, and the remaining few people, although brave and counterattacking, still could not really stop the enemy. The enemy was blocked by the laser gun for a short while, and then reorganized personnel to launch another charge against our position.

  This time the enemy learned a lesson, no longer charging in groups of people and horses, but completely dispersed, single soldier assault. I also saw an enemy opening a small car and rushing over, don't know where he got that car from.

  I took aim at a sedan and killed the enemy inside with one shot, only to find more of these civilian vehicles heading towards our position.

  The warrior operating the laser cannon immediately defended against a lone enemy attack, targeting civilian vehicles, each hit capable of destroying one vehicle and killing all enemies inside.

  Inspired, many warriors began to switch weapons and use more powerful ones such as rocket propelled grenades, aiming at the enemy's vehicles was a barrage of crazy bombing. The enemy's vehicles were numerous, but they were no match for our Hu Long Brigade's ten soldiers with excellent handheld weapons, in just a few minutes, they were forced to start retreating.

  I am very satisfied with the performance of the warriors. Taking this opportunity, I loudly said: "The enemy has retreated, we will hold on for a while longer, and reinforcements will arrive soon. The final victory belongs to us..."

  I hadn't finished speaking when a row of people suddenly shouted: "Look quickly, it's a tank!"

  I hastily turned my head and was shocked. I don't know where the enemy got a tank from, but it's now heading towards us. The barrel of the tank is also slowly turning in our direction, apparently preparing to attack us with its cannon.

  The battle has reached this point, the enemy is also blinded by rage, regardless of whether it will harm their target No. 1 Xinxing Energy and the manufacturing technology of laser guns, they have begun to use more powerful weapons to attack us.

  This way, our chances of holding out here are too slim. With no other choice, I loudly shouted: "Retreat, immediate retreat!"

  As I shouted, the enemy's cannons opened fire and ran. In the midst of the loud noise, a shell hit the wall of the courtyard which already had a gap in it, creating another hole. However, this time the power of the shell was much smaller, and since the wall was originally sturdy, only a small hole was blasted out.

  Because we retreated in time, there were no casualties. We came to a small building near the wall of the courtyard, and immediately used each window as a shooting hole, preparing to block the enemy again when they attacked.

  I glanced at the row of warriors beside me, now reduced to just ten people, and my heart felt a pang of sorrow. I couldn't help but think to myself: "This battle has cost us dearly, yet the enemy continues to attack us relentlessly. Although it's still uncertain who will emerge victorious, if things continue like this, we'll eventually be wiped out by the enemy..."

  At this time, a row of long suddenly came before me and whispered: "Instructor, you...you leave here and go to the underground base."

  I was taken aback, and then I said seriously: "What are you talking about! Deserting at the critical moment is the most shameful thing! Can I do that? Listen to me, everyone, we will face our enemy together, we are the Dragon Guard, an integral whole, sharing life and death!"

  Including a row of ten warriors who were slightly stunned and then shouted in unison: "Born to die together! Born to die together......"

  I stood up, looking at the courtyard wall blown open by the enemy, and said loudly: "Today is the day we dedicate ourselves to our country. If anyone has anything to say, speak out now. Don't wait until you face the enemy and still have something left unsaid. I only have one sentence, that is - even if I die, I will make the enemy pay a sufficient price!"

  One of them stood up and shouted loudly: "I have nothing to say, I'll follow the instructor!"

  A warrior also shouted loudly: "Swear to defend the base with our lives and never let the enemy enter our base!"

  The remaining warriors shouted in unison: "Loyal dedication to the country, sworn to fight to the death!"

  I was slightly moved and said loudly: "Everyone in their positions, prepare for battle."

  The warriors quickly found their positions, with various weapons aimed at the gap in the courtyard wall 100 meters away.

  A few minutes later, the enemy's tank first appeared in my line of sight. It seemed that they were also scared by us and no one dared to walk in front of the tank, so I could only see the tank but not the enemy.

  I know that facing a tank, we few people are not opponents at all, unless we have more powerful weapons. Thinking of this, I secretly became anxious, earlier in the moment of anxiety, forgot to bring back the laser gun, otherwise, wouldn't this tank be easily solved?

  One of them suddenly thought of this and slapped his thigh loudly, saying: "Our laser launcher, who's going to get it back for me?"

  "I said immediately: 'We can't go now, the enemy tanks have no targets and we can't go to die.'"

  "What's the plan for dealing with this big guy?"

  I frowned and said: "Our yard is full of traps, this tank will fall in by itself."

  A row of people suddenly laughed and said: "I forgot... But the pit we dug is a bit too small, will the tank..."

  "Don't worry, our trap has a lot of anti-tank mines specifically designed for this kind of iron thing. As long as the tank falls in, its tracks will be blown off and it won't be able to fight anymore."

  One of them nodded and said sincerely: "It turns out that the instructor had been prepared, I thought we would be beaten if we encountered a tank."

  I nodded slightly: "Everyone checks their weapons and prepares to intercept the enemy at any time. Our battle may last a very long time... until we all die in battle."

  A row of frowning faces said: "Don't worry, instructor, we will persevere. Unless... we all die in battle, otherwise the enemy won't even think about entering our base."

  I sighed secretly and said in my mouth: "Then prepare, the enemy may launch an attack on us at any time."

  A row of warriors immediately began checking their weapons and ammunition, preparing to meet the enemy's attack once again.

  Originally, there was a warrior who had a laser gun, unfortunately, this warrior has already sacrificed. So our row of laser guns only have four that can be used, and one is lost at the position just now.

  I know that even if someone else gets their hands on this laser gun, they won't be able to use it because it doesn't have fingerprints or a serial number. However, in a world with so many experts, it's inevitable that someone will figure out how to crack the fingerprint and serial number codes. So I thought to myself: later, I'll find an opportunity to go retrieve the lost laser gun.

  At this time, a row of tall men shouted loudly: "The enemy has entered!"

  As I looked up, a group of enemies were charging towards us from the gap. I didn't have time to think much and said decisively: "Don't shoot yet, let them taste our trap."

  A row of warriors all looked at me, seemingly not very reassured by just using traps to intercept the enemy. I slightly furrowed my brow: "Don't worry, keep an eye on the enemy, and as soon as any enemy evades our traps, immediately open fire to block them."

  The warriors finally felt at ease, each taking aim at the enemy and ready to fire at any moment. After all, there were only a few of us in this row, and if the enemy got too close, they wouldn't stand a chance - their concerns were reasonable.

  The enemy was very cautious this time, advancing step by step, and no longer rushing towards us in a swarm.

  I watched the enemy's movements, seeing them slowly enter the trap group we had set up in advance. Suddenly, my heart moved and I shouted loudly: "Open fire!"

  The warriors immediately took action, and bullets flew towards the enemy like rain. The enemy was suddenly in a state of great disorder, running around in all directions. At this moment, many enemies did not have time to distinguish whether there were traps or not, and they fell down as soon as their feet touched the ground. Then various landmines and bombs were detonated, and the enemies cried out in agony as they died. In the blink of an eye, more than half of the enemy who had charged forward were killed.

  The warriors of the Hu Long Lian took advantage of the situation to attack the enemy, with a feeling of adding insult to injury. However, this move really worked, and soon the enemy was basically eliminated by us. The remaining enemies outside the courtyard wall were also scared out of their wits, and no one dared to rush into the courtyard again.

  "A loud voice from the row said: 'This trap is really useful, we've eliminated fifty or sixty enemies at once, it's so cool...'"

  I looked at the warriors with excitement all over their faces and said loudly, "Now no enemy will dare to rush in casually. We'll take a temporary break for now. There may be more tough battles later, everyone hurry up and rest, send two people to pay attention to the enemy's movements."
