Chapter 977: Defending Xiaotupo
Chapter 977: Defending Xiaotupo
The mortars hit the position, and the defending row immediately hid.
At this moment, the second platoon leader was still arguing with the officer.
The deputy company commander asked him to go to the rear to support the company commander, but the officer chose to leave the second platoon in the northwest defense line for his own safety.
The second platoon leader didn't want to argue with the officer at first.
After all, the company commander Olivier was still waiting for him to go for support, but when the officer saw that the second platoon leader ignored him, he immediately put on airs.
"I was sent here to enforce military discipline! You are disobeying orders! You will be court-martialed!"
Seeing the officer speaking with a ferocious look on his face, the soldiers present clenched their guns tightly.
The second platoon leader also looked ferocious.
The officer was very arrogant at first, but later he realized that the atmosphere was gradually becoming strange.
Then he looked at everyone with some vigilance and realized that something was wrong with them.
"What are you doing? I'm warning you! I was sent down from above!
Do you know who my father is?"
The officer spoke as he stepped back because the platoon leader was approaching the officer step by step.
Looking at the tall and strong platoon leader in front of him, the officer stuttered for a moment.
"What are you going to do... I'm telling you... If you touch me, I'll make sure you don't get hurt..."
Before the officer could finish his words, he was kicked to the ground by the platoon leader.
"I've been annoyed with you for a long time. You've been wearing the skin of a military discipline officer all day, pointing fingers and saying this is wrong and that is wrong. Do you want to challenge the authority of the company commander?"
The platoon leader will not indulge such a spoiled young master.
These words completely confused the officer.
The officer was kicked to the ground, but he did not dare to confront the platoon leader head-on.
Because people like him are typical bullies who only bully the weak and fear the strong.
If the platoon leader had shown any fear just now, he would have been ridiculed and targeted by the officers.
To deal with those who bully the weak and fear the strong, you must use your fists to break their teeth!
The platoon leader led his troops directly to the southeast defense line to rescue his company commander.
There is a row of people defending in the front. Although there are still more than 100 orc soldiers on the other side, it is not a big problem.
The most critical issue now is the southeastern defense line...
After the battle just now, the Orc Empire lost more than 20 soldiers and more than 30 soldiers were injured.
Overall, there are still more than 400 soldiers capable of combat.
But here in Oliver, there are only 23 soldiers who are still capable of living.
Five people were injured in the recent battle, hit by fragments of grenades thrown in.
After a short respite.
The two sides soon began fighting around the small mound.
The orcs had no skills at all and just rushed up the small slope with bayonets drawn.
He wanted to climb into the trench and engage in hand-to-hand combat with these orcs.
Because the half-orcs' physical strength is far inferior to that of the orcs, once in close combat, the orcs are able to gain the upper hand.
At the beginning, the reason why the Holy Empire was able to win the Western Expedition was due to the powerful equipment of the Holy Empire Army.
Heavy armored infantry and heavy armored knights are enough to make these orcs wearing leather armor cry out in pain.
But now, both sides have entered the era of hot weapons and no longer have the armor they were armed to the teeth with in the past.
Basically whoever gets shot has to fall to the ground...
Oliver saw the orc soldiers about to charge up and immediately started shooting at them with the AK47 in his hand.
The rest of the soldiers did not hesitate and took out their weapons.
Do your best to intercept these charging orcs.
But more than 400 orcs were not so easy to intercept. In less than five seconds, these orcs rushed into the trenches.
Olivier and his men used AK47s to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy in the trenches.
The orc on the opposite side roared and rushed up, and gave him a peanut directly.
Why not use a knife when you have a gun? What kind of fool is this?
In order to prevent accidental injury to friendly forces, Olivier chose to take out his pistol and fight the enemy.
It was not until the Hundred Blades War began that Olivier realized the convenience of the pistol.
In the trenches, an inch shorter is an inch stronger!
Although the orcs had the upper hand in physical strength, at the beginning, Oliver and his soldiers were at their physical peak.
The two sides fought fiercely for a while.
Soon, the third platoon that arrived saw the two sides fighting in the trenches.
Join the battlefield without hesitation.
However, the platoon leader ordered the machine gunners to set up machine guns on both wings to shoot at the orcs who were still climbing the slope.
There were no more than 100 orcs rushing into the trenches now. After the third platoon leader ordered the machine gunners to assume the machine gun position, he led the third platoon and rushed directly forward, joining in the hand-to-hand combat.
On the northwest defense line, although two platoons were withdrawn, one platoon still withstood the enemy's attack and repelled the orcs' two attacks.
After raising the purple flag, the orc officer launched a direct charge towards the northwest position.
But twice in a row, they were beaten back by the first platoon.
When 300 people are reduced to less than 50 in the end, even the strongest army will be defeated.
The orc officer could only lead the remaining soldiers to evacuate.
The commander did not blame the officer, because the orc officer had done a good job up to this point.
He launched four rounds of attacks in one go, but they all failed. However, not everyone can launch four rounds of attacks under the enemy's attack...
Now the orc commander can only place his hopes on the southeast defense line.
I hope the 500 orcs over there can achieve brilliant results...
With the orcs evacuating from the northwest, the deputy company commander finally had time to go to the command center.
Arrived at the command center and began to contact his superiors.
Due to the special circumstances, the deputy company commander called the division headquarters directly.
This is also due to the special location of the village. The division headquarters gave Olivier and others the power to contact the division headquarters directly.
As soon as the call was connected, the deputy company commander immediately reported the situation.
At least 800 men launched the first attack.
And it seems that the other side has extra troops.
The division commander was very worried when he learned about this situation because other troops were also under attack.
In other words, all the villages where the division was stationed were under attack.
The division commander was already extremely anxious, and he also wanted to mobilize troops to launch a counterattack.
But almost no company was idle, all of them were in combat.
The situation of the remaining divisions was not optimistic either, as they were attacked almost at the same time.
The Qingchi Kingdom deployed a total of two divisions on the front line.
With a total of less than 100,000 people, they were naturally beaten hard by Bachmut's 100,000-strong army.
The Qingchi Kingdom still has 20 troops in the rear.
They believed that there were already 100,000 people on the front line, and if they went up to join in the fun at this time, not only would they not be able to drink any soup, but they would also be disliked by the brother troops.
But now, the 20 people on the front line were under fierce attack, and the people in the rear could not get quick reinforcements.
The earliest support troops will arrive at the front line is at dawn tomorrow...
And what a coincidence, a transport troop will pass by the village where Oliver is tonight...
(Good night (>﹏<))
