Chapter 54: Difficulties

bullet.

Small artillery shells.

Even anti-tank missiles were deflected.

"boom!!"

A rocket was twisted in direction and landed on the side of Li Xin's mecha. The explosion did not cause any attack on the mecha except for causing flames.

Not far away was an infantry group, hiding in a depression.

An infantryman looked up at Li Xin's mecha and said with envy, "This mecha is so cool!"

"Luckily we weren't standing nearby, otherwise we would have been hit by that rocket!"

His team leader was half lying in the pit, not even sticking his head out, and said lazily: "Have we eaten?"

"It must be because we ate so much and were so full!"

"Remember this, kid. Mechas are great, but when they appear on the battlefield, we infantrymen should stay as far away as possible!"

"I understand!" The recruits nodded repeatedly.

"Don't you think about it? Are we capable of interfering with the attacks that the mecha can withstand?"

Another veteran poked his head out, looked at the firing point in the warehouse ahead that had gone silent, and said, "Look at the other side, it's terrible!"

"Let's just fire a couple of shots, it's worth the pay!"

"Unless it's our turn to be the vanguard, otherwise, hurry up and finish your get off work!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

After saying this, the veterans around couldn't help but laugh.

Of course, Li Xin, who was on the mecha, did not notice this scene. He waited until the enemy's heavy firepower was fully released, pushed away the shield and continued to fire.

“Squeak!”

A plasma cannon fired at the firing point of another warehouse, followed by intensive machine gun fire.

However, this time the attack was different from the first one.

On Milda's side, all the soldiers on the first line of defense heard the orders from commanders at all levels: "Everyone retreat to the second line of defense!"

These infantrymen evacuated the first line of defense in a hurry, ready to let the enemy in to fight.

After the second round of shooting, Li Xin's results were relatively much smaller.

Looking at the enemy firepower points that had been silenced one by one, Li Xin began to report: "03 report, the enemy firepower points have been temporarily eliminated!"

"01 received."

"Retreat and restock your ammunition first!"

Jiang Lou replied, and then he continued to upload orders to the command center.

Soon, a new combat order was issued, but this time it was not directed at Li Xin and his men, but at Heng'an Defense.

An infantry company commander issued an order to his platoon leader: "Send your platoon forward to scout the enemy!"

At the same time, the armored force on the other side, three Deer Hunter tanks, also received the order.

The commander, who was originally standing on the turret, quickly put on his helmet and nimbly got into the tank.

"boom!"

Three Deer Hunter tanks drove out from behind the bunker and drove along the road to the front of the warehouse.

"Fire a flare first!"

The commander gave orders from inside a Deer Hunter tank.

"Bang!"

A flare flew into the warehouse. Although the effect was very poor inside the warehouse, it at least allowed the members to see the situation inside the warehouse clearly for a short time.

At the entrance of the warehouse, it was almost blank, with only some broken bricks and stones.

It can hardly be called a bunker. Basically, all the things piled up in the warehouse have been piled up at the back.

It was obvious that the enemy had established a new line of defense here.

It is not easy to win this battle.

Li Xin's mecha retreated a little to the rear, where he reloaded ammunition while observing the situation ahead.

In front, the infantrymen have been advancing cautiously and are now staying outside the walls of the warehouse.

There was no way. Now they were all worried that they would face heavy firepower from the enemy once they entered.

"Throw some fluorescent light in there!"

The leader of a combat team spoke to the soldiers.

Then, one by one, the infantrymen took out their military fluorescent sticks, twisted them open, and threw them into the warehouse.

Although there was light, no one dared to go in.

Everyone saw that there was no shelter inside the warehouse, so which infantryman would dare to go in?

Not to mention infantry, even armored vehicles and even mechas would not dare to go in under such circumstances.

But the battle cannot be stopped just because it is difficult. After a quick communication among the commanders, the action began at the front.

A team of infantry quickly passed through the passage between the warehouses and came to the back of a row of four warehouses.

They set up a simple defense line here to guard against enemy support from the two warehouses in the rear.

If they had a plan, they would even want to attack the four warehouses in front from the rear.

"Fire a smoke bomb!"

The commander gave the order.

Soon, the two howitzer companies in the rear loaded special ammunition, and huge smoke bombs were fired into the passage behind the warehouse.

Isolate the two warehouses in the back row from the four warehouses in the middle row.

In the passage, an infantryman quickly came to the warehouse gate and threw a fluorescent stick in from behind.

As a result, when he saw this, he suddenly felt a little overwhelmed.

"Report!"

"The enemy's defenses are also behind the second row of warehouses! They're not easy to defeat either!"

When the commanders heard this information, they immediately felt uncomfortable.

Originally they were thinking of attacking from both sides, which would certainly disperse the enemy's defensive firepower, but now they saw that attacking from behind was completely impossible.

Unless you continue to attack backwards and launch an attack directly from behind the third row of warehouses.

But in this case, the front line is too long, and an infantry battalion plus the current armored forces are completely unable to do this.

The enemy has mechas. Once the battle line is stretched too long, the most likely scenario is that the enemy will assemble mecha troops, and one assault may eliminate the troops in one attack direction.

"What should we do?" The commander of the infantry battalion communicated with his staff.

Everyone felt a little confused.

The situation inside the warehouse is far more complicated than what appears on the surface.

Although the first row of warehouses had been occupied by Heng'an Defense, this was also deliberately abandoned by Milda's attendants.

Although they needed to use this warehouse group for defense, time was limited and they could not utilize all three rows of warehouses, and they did not have enough troops.

However, the two rows of warehouses at the back are being utilized quite well.

It's not just the defense line on the surface. Underground, these warehouses also have interconnected passages where infantry can change positions, and even tanks can move back and forth.

Whether the enemy disperses their forces to attack these warehouses or concentrates their forces, they will have to face intensive firepower attacks.

Unless the entire warehouse is demolished, there will definitely be huge casualties.
