Chapter 34 Blood in the Trench

The fierce artillery fire continued to destroy, and the fourth line of defense, the soldiers of the Wuwei Front Army in the defense line lowered their bodies, fearing that the shell would be affected by the bad luck.

The iron-blooded army opposite the Wuwei Front Army also lowered their bodies and waited for the end of the artillery fire. The other part of the people began to dig three or four meters of soil while taking advantage of the sound of artillery bombardment. [bsp;   The artillery lasted for a full half hour, and hundreds of shells fell, most of which fell at the back of the fourth floor trench. A very small number fell into the trench and took away a piece of life. Now the artillery fire stopped, the soldiers of the Wuwei Front Army have also begun to slowly recover and prepare for defense.

"Ding Ding Dangdang..." The soldiers of the Wuwei Front Army who were lying in the shooting position suddenly heard the sound, became surprised, and hurriedly ran to the guard commander.

"Oh no, the Iron Blood Army is digging the passage. Hurry up, call out the passage to block it." The commander of the Second Regiment of the Wuwei Front Army was shocked and understood. It turned out that the enemy's guns and cannons last night were just to cover up the sound of their digging passage.

"Here..." A soldier from the Wuwei Front Army sided his ears and confirmed a passage.

“There are also…”

"There are also... here..." After a while, several other places were also discovered. Rows of soldiers from the front-line military soldiers of the Wuwei Army were gathered in these five places, ready to fight against the rushing iron-blooded army at any time.

"After the tunnel was excavated, the charge was immediately blown, and the upper and lower levels attacked at the same time, annihilated and defeated the enemy regardless of casualties." At the most critical moment, Wang Meng's palm was covered with sweat, and he could see that he had issued a military order.

"Digging..."

"Kill..." As the passage was dug, the trumpeter raised his neck and blew the charge, and shouted loudly for a moment.

"Stop them..." The shouts of killing in the sky made the commander of the guard beat. He secretly estimated that the opponent would definitely not be less than two thousand people, so he hurriedly ordered the soldiers to strengthen their defense.

"There are also above the regiment commander..." Just as everyone was waiting for the Iron Blood Army to rush out of the passage, the Iron Blood Army also appeared on the edge of the trench, and the heavy machine guns on the fifth line of defense also began to make a big splash.

"Fight with them, everyone will hear me. Those who retreat will die..." Although Jia Zhenming added more than a thousand people to the Second Regiment here, he also issued a death order, that is, he was not allowed to retreat. As long as he turned around, he would be shot dead by the army behind him, which means that they had no way out.

"Kill..." Facing the supervisory team behind, all the soldiers chose to fight against the enemies in front of them, so the Iron Blood Army soldiers who had just rushed in were instantly surrounded. No matter how high their morale was, they could not defend against the other side's three-sided bayonets.

"Push..." The comrades above their heads were charging at the enemy's bullets, rushing down the trenches one by one like dumplings, and the iron-blooded army in the passage below also began to have the final impact.

"Pu..." Two Iron Blood soldiers pushed hard to the soil layer that was only a little thick in front, stirring up a burst of smoke and dust, and rushed over in an instant.

"Kill..." The Wuwei Front Army, who was originally waiting outside, was instantly covered by dust. Before he could figure out the situation, the Iron Blood Army soldiers rushed in had already pierced the chest.

"Kill..." The soldiers of the Wuwei Front Army must still have the advantage of military strength in the passage. Although the Iron Blood Army rushed over unexpectedly, the soldiers of the Wuwei Front Army also fought with them under the command of the commander.

There were bloody battles in the trenches. Nearly 100 iron-blooded troops at the entrance of a passage were divided into two trajectors to rush and advance to both sides in order to expand larger space and accommodate companions in the rear. The front army of the Wuwei was desperately suppressing them, wanting to annihilate them or return to the passage.

"Captain Wang, we are fighting with each other! In just ten minutes of attack, our fourth regiment has lost a battalion!" Liang Shunjie looked anxiously at the soldiers passing quickly in front of him. Since the passage was opened, teams of soldiers fought life and death with the enemy in order to expand the passage entrance. However, in this narrow and dense trench battle, the battle in the trench was completely fought against us. The dense crowd could stab a person even if they threw the bayonet over. Therefore, hundreds of soldiers fell down on both sides in a short period of time.

"What can I do? The trench is small and I can't use guns at all, and the heavy machine guns mixed with enemies and us are completely useless." Wang Meng was also anxious when he saw the stalemate of the war.

"Report to the regiment commander, our army is willing to defeat the enemy soldiers for the vanguard." While the two were discussing, Cao Qi, who had suffered too much losses in the last battle, came to the two to ask for a fight.

"The last time your battalion suffered heavy casualties, with less than 200 people remaining for more than 600 people. Now that the soldiers have just been added, how can we charge again?" Cao Qi is Liang Shunjie's capable general, brave and good at fighting. The military achievements of the third trench this time depend on this person.

"Don't worry, the leader of the regiment, our department will definitely guarantee to complete the task." Cao Qi's tone was firm.

"I don't think that if Captain Liang, it would be better to let Cao Qi go and try it. Maybe it would be like the third trench, the enemy would be defeated by Captain Cao!" He also admired Cao Qi and Wang Meng very much. Yesterday's hand-to-hand battle, Cao Qi's first battalion was almost the sharp knife of the entire army. Wherever he went, the enemy fled.

"Brothers, we are going to rush up again this time! Like yesterday, we used our bayonet to pierce the enemy's liver and gallbladder, hey...Dunson, long live the Iron Blood Army, long live the Han people!" Cao Qi brought more than 600 people from his camp to gather at a passage entrance and on the gentle slope around the passage entrance, ready to attack forward at any time.

"Long live the iron-blooded army! Long live the Han people..." The soldiers roared, saying that one soldier would win a nest. Cao Qi, as the battalion commander, was not afraid of death, and his soldiers dared to fight for their lives even more.

"Stop them!" The battle was going on fiercely. The casualties of the Wuwei Front Army were even greater than those of the Iron Blood Army. More than 1,000 people had been lost. Nearly half of the casualties were still in danger of defeat even if the supervisor team in the rear was in danger of defeat, but the guard commander still had to stand here.

"Captain! No, no! The Iron Blood Army is too strong, we can't stand the fourth level of defense at all! I think we should retreat!" Without firm belief, maybe the Beiyang Army is a little stronger than the Revolutionary Army in the battle again, but they cannot hold on to the last soldier like the Revolutionary Army.

"No, now we have just blocked the attack of the Iron Blood Army. Wouldn't it be useless to escape now? Besides, with one effort, if we can defeat him this time, the brothers will have a bright future!" Fugui asked in danger. As an officer of the Wuwei Front Army, the commander of the Weiwei regiment knew that as long as he blocked the attack, Zhang Xun would give him many benefits. He wanted to take a try.

"But the regiment commander, if the enemy charges fiercely again, our soldiers will... be dispersed!" The Wuwei Front Army has not been subjected to any fierce battle since its establishment. Now it is under fierce attack by the Iron Blood Army, and everyone from the officers to the soldiers is confused and uneasy.

"Kill..." Just as the adjutant was discussing with the commander of the guard, a sudden shout of killing sound suddenly broke out, and another team of iron-blooded troops rushed over with bayonets. The Wuwei Front Army, who had just gained a little advantage because of the advantage of numbers, instantly lost all the advantages.

"Kill..." Cao Qi's soldiers fought to the death like other Iron Blood Army soldiers, but their battles were traceable. Usually, they attacked a target at the same time, and then the third person was alert and killed in one go. They almost didn't drag on the mud. They stabbed one person and drew their swords in an instant. After a word of killing broke out, everyone fell silent again. The expressionless face of the black helmet face and the killing of a knife gave people a mechanical feeling. Even some veterans would not scream when they died. This state made the Martial Guard Front Army on the opposite side fall into fear. They don't understand why these people are so unafraid of death and why they don't feel pain at all. These people are like devils walking out of hell, taking away the lives of their companions around with one knife, and then stepping over their companions' corpses without any expression, killing them again.

"Kill..." There were too many shouts of killing. Most of the soldiers of the Iron Blood Army had already had their throats dry and could not speak. The word "kill" sounded so low, giving people a feeling of a beast.

"Don't kill me, I surrender!" Cao Qi led his men to kill all the way. After leaving behind a corpse, many soldiers from the Wuwei Front Army put down their bayonets and raised their hands. Cao Qi and the others ignored it and walked directly past him, leaving the surrendered person sweating all over.

"Escape! Escape quickly!" Commander Wei just wanted to encourage his soldiers, but when he saw the Iron Blood Army soldiers who were like wolves and tigers who were killing without blinking, he suddenly lost all his courage and ran away with his subordinates. Many soldiers also followed him and fled.

"Captain Wang, the place has retreated." Liang Shunjie and Wang Meng have been observing the situation on the battlefield. Cao Qi really did not disappoint them. A fierce charge instantly defeated the enemy's courage to resist.

"I finally broke through!" After more than three hours of fighting, it was already nine o'clock in the morning. The intensity of the battle was beyond their minds. Moreover, the fighting style of the soldiers in the army also made them look bad. Although these troops did not have a long training time, some basic tactics have been learned. However, on the battlefield, there are still many soldiers fighting on their own when fighting hand-to-hand combat.

"The training is still too little!" The major problem facing Dengsen's Iron Blood Army is time. The soldiers are brave enough, but they are not trained enough, and there are still many casualties in combat.

"Go away..." In the trenches, the Iron Blood Army soldiers were escorting groups of prisoners. When each Iron Blood Army was reprimanding, these people lowered their heads in fear of seeing the eyes of these madmen.

"Captain Liang, you report this battle to the head of state after returning. I am responsible for sorting out military affairs and ready to attack again at any time..." Wang Meng didn't know that Deng Sen just hit the fourth floor and felt that it was almost done, so he thought Deng Sen would attack again, so he began to sort out the troops' armed forces. His face turned bitter. Since the beginning, more than 5,000 people in the two regiments and the one thousand people who were added later, a total of 6,000 people are good now with 4,000 people! The loss is so huge that the Iron Blood Army has an absolute advantage in weapons and equipment.
