"Do you know why you have to stay here?"
Cole asked, licking a piece of paper and lazily rolling it into a cigarette.
Brownie pushed his military cap up so that he could look at Cole from under the brim.
"If we don't hold on here, all of Australia will be taken over by the Empire."
Cole forced a smile, revealing his smoke-yellow teeth, and drew the bayonet from his waist.
"If a Ming Dynasty devil appeared in front of me now, I would use my bayonet to cut him into pieces and would never let those people of color occupy Australia."
"But……"
Brownie said.
"I heard that the rule of the empire is pretty good. Everyone there has pension insurance and medical insurance, and they only need to work five days a week..."
“Don’t forget, they are people of color!”
Cole retorted, flicking the stubbed end of his cigarette toward a lizard in the sun.
"My friend, maybe the empire is good, but they are people of color after all, not white. What if they just want to occupy Australia and are unwilling to give us any benefits?"
Brownie adjusted his hat and licked his cracked lips.
"I would rather die here than become a prisoner of the Ming devils."
Cole's words fell into Brownie's ears. He opened his mouth but did not continue. He looked out from under his hat at the vast grassland in the distance, where he could vaguely see some sheep and beef cattle.
This shelter located on the rocky hill faced the grassland. Apart from them, there was no one else on this vast grassland.
Ten months ago, the Australian Front sent by the Ming Empire unexpectedly landed in the Great Australian Bight, and then launched an attack directly westward. They fought all the way to the Eyre Peninsula, and then occupied Port Lincoln and Spencer Gulf, and then occupied Port Augusta and Port Pirie... Now, they have occupied the York Peninsula and are rushing towards Adelaide.
God bless, we must stop them here, otherwise they will occupy South Wales and all of Australia, but what can we use to stop them? There are only less than 30,000 defenders in Adelaide.
"Once our troops in the north withdraw, we will definitely be able to defeat them. We just need to hold on to this place..."
As Cole spoke, he glanced at the Maxim machine gun next to the fortifications. Next to it were boxes of ammunition. If they were attacked, they would use machine guns to repel any attack.
Their rifles were leaning against the wall, their bayonets gleaming coldly in the sun, and they waved their hands to shoo away the buzzing flies.
"We hold this place!"
Cole said as he threw a small stone at the lizard, but it still didn't seem to be moving.
"Buy some time for our army. They are rushing over from the north at full speed. By the time the army there returns, the imperial invaders will definitely not be our match..."
At this time, a broadcast with exciting music came from the radio - in the past ten years or so, radio and broadcasting have been promoted all over the world, and even here, there is a radio.
However, they did not buy it, but "picked it up" from a nearby house. The owner of the house fled to an unknown place to avoid the war, and many things were left in the empty house. This radio was a bargain for them.
"The U.S. troops led by General MacArthur are still resisting the invasion of the Ming Empire in the San Francisco Bay area. Hundreds of thousands of U.S. troops have built an indestructible fortress there... We will resist the invasion of the Ming Empire in Australia. We will fight side by side with our allies to smash the cruel and ruthless imperial invaders! Shatter the Ming Empire's dream of occupying the world!"
Shatter the Ming Empire’s dream of conquering the world!
This is what the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany and other countries are all saying now: "The Ming Empire intends to occupy the world!" and "intends to destroy Christian civilization." Although this is a hat for the empire, it is also right to wear this hat.
At this moment, a sudden loud explosion was heard from outside the shelter. The lizards were blown to pieces, and several soldiers were pushed hard onto the machine guns and rifles.
"Damn it, where did the shells come from?"
Cole grabbed the rifle and looked into the distance through the telescope.
"Oh my God! Tanks! So many tanks! It must be...it's...the Third Tank Division!"
The 3rd Tank Division was the elite of the Imperial Army. After landing, the 3rd Tank Division rampaged all the way and defeated the Australian army's defense.
On the horizon where yellow smoke was rolling, the dust raised by the tanks almost blocked the sun. Biplanes could be seen in the sky. The red Suzaku flag looked extremely eye-catching in the rolling smoke.
tank!
Tanks of the Imperial Army!
Just like that, it came into people's sight. Planes roared in the sky and dropped bombs on the defense line. In the violent explosion, the seemingly solid trenches collapsed, and the Australian soldiers in the trenches also flew into the sky.
The outcome of this battle was doomed from the beginning. Although the Australians resisted tenaciously, they were simply no match for the impact of tanks and bombing by aircraft. After the tank troops tore through the barbed wire in front of the Australian line of defense, the attacking infantry easily crushed the Australian defense. The tanks repeatedly rolled over the trenches, causing them to collapse directly. Countless Australian soldiers were buried alive underneath.
As the Australians tried to escape, tanks, machine guns and artillery fired wildly, driving them away. At this moment, suddenly, a thunderous sound came from the front.
It's the sound of horse hooves!
Thousands of cavalrymen came straight from the flank, waving their cavalry swords, screaming, and rushing towards the imperial army. Of course, they were not attacking the tanks, but the infantry behind the tanks. These cavalrymen launched the charge bravely and fearlessly.
The earth was shaking with the sound of horse hooves. When the cavalry launched an attack, the artillery of the imperial army reacted first, and fired shells at the Australian cavalry.
Accompanied by fierce explosions, the cavalry were blown to the ground. Although shells continued to hit the cavalry, they could not stop the Australian cavalry that was like a tide.
They rushed towards the infantry behind the tanks without hesitation, and at this time, most tankers did not notice these cavalrymen...
