Yes, hold on.
There is a gentle hillside behind the camp, and it is almost impossible to retreat to the top of the mountain despite the rain of bullets, and the rescue teams operate separately and cannot receive reliable support in a short period of time. When the situation is extremely unfavorable, sticking to this place is the only way to cause the greatest damage to the enemy at present.
After all, the difference between the number of people on both sides is too great, and everyone’s backpacks are filled with food, clothes and other supplies, and they don’t even bring a heavy machine gun, which makes the weapons on both sides basically at the same level, and it is difficult to rely on it like in the past. Long-range firepower to make up for the lack of numbers.
Fifty to one thousand, fish balls can already predict the result.
When he admitted that this thought came up, he was still a little scared, but he was no longer the coward who only held his head and flinched in the past, and his fear would not affect his responsibilities as the monitor.
Even if he dies here, he has to make the other party pay enough price!
Obviously other teammates are also thinking the same at this moment, otherwise they would not deliberately suppress the shooting speed and put the enemy within 200 meters.
The bullets everyone carries are limited, and the best hit rate can only be achieved in medium and close combat.
Of course, the enemy's aim will also be improved due to the shortening of the distance. This is a double-edged sword, and will will determine everything.
The hillside delayed the opponent's movement, and Yu Wan waited for nearly a minute before seeing someone entering the 100-meter circle. He was able to see the attacker's face with a lookout mirror. And this once again confirmed his previous speculation that most people's faces were clean, not like refugees who came and went in the wind and rain, and their actions and expressions showed no signs of being forced.
He no longer has to worry about killing innocents by mistake.
Fishball aimed at the enemy who was at the forefront and pulled the trigger.
The teammates around him also chose to fire at this moment.
For a time, the sound of gunfire on the camp suddenly made a loud noise, instantly overshadowing the movement of the other party. The attacker who was charging at the front fell down in the blink of an eye, and the offensive momentum suddenly stagnated. The surrounding enemies fell down one after another and fired back at the First Army. I don't know if they had figured out such a confrontation method in the past battle, or had been guided by the devil, and the situation turned into mutual shooting. .
Just as the two sides were deadlocked, the enemy behind pushed several cloth-covered two-wheeled scooters to a position close to the front line.
This kind of fish balls is not unfamiliar. Compared with carriages and mules, trolleys that are pushed and pulled by humans are more suitable for ordinary people to use, especially when the family moves and needs to carry a lot of goods. He thought it was just a prop used by the enemy to disguise his identity, but he didn't expect that after starting the charge, the other party still did not give up these cumbersome scooters.
It was not until the cover was opened that Yu Wan found out that what was being hauled on the trolley was actually a Mark 1 heavy machine gun!
"Da da da"
The rapid burst of fire immediately suppressed the firepower of the First Army, and the bullets it was equipped with had a tracer effect, and the accurate head was much better than the bolt-action rifle. The front of the camp seems to be boiling, and the grass and soil full of wildflowers are splashing. If there are still camps to resist, I am afraid that this wave will make them lose their ability to fight back.
Fortunately, the enemy did not set up a machine gun position at the farthest distance, but put it into the charge together. Now the distance between the machine guns and the defense line is only about 200 meters, and the First Army is scattered enough, which gives them a chance to breathe.
"Hansen!" Yu Wan shouted.
The latter made a clear gesture and ran all the way to the edge of the fort with his rifle in hand.
The First Army rarely encountered a situation where the firepower was at a disadvantage. According to the regulations in the operation manual, once it fell into the disadvantageous situation of weak firepower, it should call the rear artillery as soon as possible for support, or specifically target the enemy's firepower to implement countermeasures. Obviously, the only action the rescue team can take at this time is to use efficient and accurate sniping to deter the momentum of the enemy's attack.
Taking advantage of the neutral position of the machine gun reloading, Yu Wan and his teammates raised their heads and shot fiercely, attracting the opponent's attention as much as possible to themselves. And Hansen did not let him down, and two shots knocked the shooter on the trolley to the ground. Subsequent people who wanted to follow to climb on the scooter were also called one by one.
Without the suppression of the machine guns, the enemy who took advantage of the momentum to charge was repelled by a round of swarming shots before they took ten steps, and the battle situation returned to its original point.
…
"Damn it, why haven't these wastes captured the camp yet?" Ma Weien looked up at the sun that was gradually sloping west, and stomped impatiently. "Viscount Nanos, aren't your people too cowardly, they can't even take down a flank! If it is delayed until night, the people of Greycastle will run away!"
As commanders, they naturally don't have to rush to the front line like entourages and mercenaries. Moreover, these Greycastle people never pay attention to the nobility's rules of engagement. They deliberately keep their hands, and keep them for ransom after being captured... None of them exist. They had already seen the attitude of the people of Graycastle towards the nobles. They would not gain any honor and respect for leading the charge as in the past, and would only be beaten into a hornet's nest by the first one.
"They've done their best, and your men aren't doing much better," Nanos said dissatisfiedly. "It's clear that the number of people is the largest, but the front line is the most backward. If your central force can advance a hundred paces, the camp will be better. Got it already."
"You" Ma Weien was speechless, so he could only stare at the front line, but wrote down the hatred in his heart.
When I become the King of Eternal Winter, I must make you look good!
But the most important thing now is to win. Without victory, the Lord of the Vault of Heaven will not look at him differently.
It's just that he doesn't understand why the situation has become so anxious
Everything went smoothly as planned. In order to prevent the people from Greycastle from discovering flaws, they did not choose to set up an ambush in the small town, nor did they choose to outflank each other in this valley in advance. He carefully considered the details that led to the exposure. As for those townspeople who might leak the news, he didn't spare any of them.
And the fact is the same. When the people of Greycastle noticed the difference, the distance between the two sides had already narrowed to hundreds of steps. With far more muskets and more people than the opponent, the battle should be over soon, but why are they still unable to enter the camp after the stalemate
Even if the other party has one gun per person, there are only fifty or so, and the noble coalition has as many as two hundred!
In Ma Weien's imagination, the people of Graycastle should have been frightened and collapsed in the face of such ferocious firepower.
But what he saw seemed to be the other way around.
The coalition forces were pinned down on the hillside, unable to move, and several charges were repelled by intensive shooting, but the counterattacks organized here were painless, and they had not been able to weaken the defensive strength of the people of Greycastle, as if the enemy had With three heads and six arms, it can control several muskets at the same time.
The bursting musket that he had placed high hopes on before was even more pitiful. Not only did it fail to destroy the will of the people of Greycastle, but instead, it swept away his own people when he charged several times. Looking from the foot of the hillside, I saw a circle of corpses lying around and in front of the bursting muskets that were finally transported up, and no one dared to touch it anymore.
If things continue like this, wouldn't the bright future that he was looking forward to come to naught
You must know that Yongdong can't produce bullets. If he fails to capture enough ammunition in this battle, how can he have a chance to take another bite of the Greycastle's flesh in the next battle
"Don't be impatient, my lord," Fowler comforted. "According to my observation, the sound of the enemy's gunfire has become much sparser than before, and it can be seen that they have run out of ammunition. As long as we persist, we can use the best method to obtain it. Victory. After all, they only have muskets, and we have everything."
But in that case, it would be impossible to capture more bullets, Maveen thought bitterly. Forget it, the bullets can be requested from the Vault of Heaven Lord later, and the top priority is to completely annihilate this team of Greycastle people! He called a guard, "Send my order on, the promised reward will be doubled, and the first one to rush into the position will be rewarded with 100 gold dragons!"
