Chapter 1788 The Longest Day (4)
“Ahem——”
After retching and spitting cleanly, the Armageddon officer turned around and frowned. , pointed at the map and said:
“It should be accurate, maybe two hundred meters further back.”
As he said that, he paused, as if recalling something terrible, his face became bloodless.
"These bastards are very accurate with their marksmanship and can play dead. Many of our good soldiers have been killed by their traps. You must pay attention."
"I will."
Arni He answered the other person in a relaxed tone, then turned around and looked at one of his military advisers.
"How?"
The military adviser with only one eye stared at the map for a while, and then drew a line.
"The enemy's fortifications are a typical cross-fire deployment. In conjunction with the arc-shaped defense line, if you rush into a large force, you will be attacked by enemy fire from three directions. Therefore, I suggest launching an attack from both ends. Send two battalions first and let them cover each other alternately. , thoroughly understand the enemy’s firepower distribution, and then organize a commando team to use artillery cover to destroy the enemy’s heavy firepower fortifications first.”
Although the Abu Bakari 310th Infantry Regiment is a cannon fodder regiment, it has a large number of people. , the entire regiment has 6 infantry battalions, each battalion has 500 people, plus other battalions, the total number is close to 6,000 people.
The military adviser's statement was very euphemistic, but Arni could generally tell that he was probably using a battalion to conduct a probing attack and then make plans.
A very safe plan, although it does not suit Arni's taste. After all, what he wants to hear is the kind of "magic touch" that can instantly eliminate the enemy, such as tunnel digging and disguised infiltration. But considering that it is him In the first battle, it seems that there is no problem in playing it safe.
“Okay, let’s do it like this and let the Second and Third Battalions go.”
Boom——
The artillery fire continued to hammer the ground, but Hayes began to get used to this huge roar. He raised his head slightly and looked at the dust fountain tens of meters high that was lifted up by the explosion, and murmured to himself Said:
"No one can survive in this situation."
"Yes."
Hachet said lazily on the side ：
"Because those heretics are not human at all."
"Then what are they?"
"They are monsters, demons, garbage that will make you sick to your stomach just by looking at them, but their vitality is very tenacious. "
"Assemble!" At this moment, their company commander roared. It was only now that Hayes saw a real commander for the first time. This man was also recruited by the Morales family. The two intertwined scars on his face are very intimidating to the veteran, not to mention his strong and beast-like physique, combined with the murderous intent visible to the naked eye. In just a few hours, the entire company was stunned. Be obedient to him.
"Get ready to go in five minutes!"
At this time, they were already covered by the steel dome of the hive city, but this dome had been riddled with cannon fodder and was riddled with holes. The huge cracks caused by the orbital bombardment made some The dim sunlight shines on this area close to the bottom nest.
Hayes followed the team carefully. They needed to pass through a defensive area first. Under the fire of the war, there was basically nothing left except ruins and rubble. The troops stationed here dug a large number of trenches and fortifications. They Looking at the Abubakari 310th Infantry Regiment walking forward, they all whistled and laughed a little mockingly.
“These bastards from Armageddon, how come the greenskins didn’t eat their mother.”
Hayes heard Hashet curse in a low voice.
After walking for more than half an hour, the presence of friendly forces gradually disappeared, and they entered an even more chaotic area.
The rubble is piled up like a hill, probably formed by the collapse of some huge buildings. Large craters with a diameter of six to seven meters can be seen everywhere on the ground, and they are even steaming. The shelling has turned a large area into a sea of scorch and warmth. Exploded landscape, corpses and body fragments can occasionally be seen scattered among the ruins, many places are still burning, poisonous yellow mist and thick black smoke envelope the cursed ground.
Then, Hayes seemed to see their target, which was a dark outline with many jagged protrusions, extending toward the steel dome of the hive like teeth.
No. 9 Water Supply Station is a solid building. Although its main body has been razed by cannon fodder, the lower part is still standing because it is made entirely of steel, and there are a large number of water supply pipes distributed around it. The water pipes were as tall as two men, allowing enemy troops to maneuver quickly through them, so the area was always a focus of attack.
Of course, the enemy knew this very well, so he built strong fortifications and deployed a considerable number of troops here.
All the buildings around the water supply station have collapsed, forming a terrain similar to high ground. The 3rd Battalion first stopped briefly behind the original fortifications left by the Armageddonians. After allocating the troops, the recruits were divided into groups under the leadership of veteran officers. Two groups surrounded the water supply station from the left and right directions.
Hayes's company belongs to the right attack group. He is bent over, wearing a gas mask, holding a laser rifle, carefully following behind his teammates, and looking around warily from time to time, Fish Head Brother Fitz walked on his left, doing almost the same thing. The big man Cabri walked behind the two of them. He carried a heavy logging gun on his shoulder. He was followed by the loader "Bean" Scheffen, a bigger man than Hai. Si was a short boy who was only two years older. He was the only heavy firepower in their company.
For some reason, after the shelling stopped, the entire battlefield became unusually quiet.
This kind of silence is like death itself, and it also means that the breath of death is everywhere.
Hayes's heart beat even harder. He kept panting and sweating, making the gas mask sticky and uncomfortable. But he didn't dare to take it off because the monitor, Hachet, said , he will die if he takes it off, so he must never take off the mask randomly.
Because there is no terrain that can be called a "road" here, everyone can only trek among the ruins. Occasionally, someone falls down because of missing the ground, and they dare not make any sound. Although there is no order, silence has become everyone's wish. With a consensus, everyone traversed this rugged journey in silence.
Suddenly, someone let out a muffled scream. Hayes stopped and tried to raise his gun, and then he screamed too.
In the ruins ahead, many corpses were lying twisted on the icy ground, or strung on rough metal rings, with brown blood stains around them, and leftover weapons sandwiched between Among the rocks or half-buried in loose gravel, a battle flag belonging to an unknown regiment still stands. The broken flag flutters in the wind, but the eagle emblem on it has been replaced by a roughly painted eight-pointed star. , with obscene insults scrawled on the surrounding rocks.
Many corpses had their armor, boots and even clothes stripped off, some were headless, and others were brutally chopped into pieces, with limbs lying like discarded toys in the slaughterhouse, rotting corpses The scene turned into a smelly, rotting morgue.
