Chapter 1547 Chapter 1548 Fighting Ben again

In fact, the situation of the Tang army was not as good as they imagined: after taking control of Benn, there were more than 15 civilians here, nearly 1 prisoners of war, and at least broken troops remaining in the city. disappear.

The Tang Army's troops, which attacked very quickly, controlled most of the city, but they still couldn't solve all the troubles in the first time.

In order to capture the dwarves, the Tang army had to detach a part of its troops to supervise and guard the soldiers who had surrendered their weapons. Of course, this group of people also has another mission, which is to annihilate the dwarf troops hiding in the city.

In addition, the Tang Army also needs to transport subsequent supplies to Benn for consumption by the nearby Tang Army troops - the weapons and ammunition of the two sides are completely different, and the Tang Army does not like the dwarf junk left in the warehouse. .

The food prepared by the dwarves for the soldiers was of very poor quality. It was impossible for the soldiers of the Tang Army to eat those rotten potatoes and moldy bread unless they had to.

As for other things, probably no Tang soldier would want to try on the dwarf’s trousers – the crotch position is different…

Therefore, almost all supplies had to be rushed from the beach to Benn City, which was a great test of the capabilities of the Tang Army's logistics troops. The good news is that the Tang Army's logistics force is the best in the world, but the bad news is that they can barely get one-tenth of what they have into Benn City despite all their efforts.

At the same time, the Tang Army used the short rest time to change defenses, moving the 2nd Parachute Division with higher combat effectiveness to Benn City, and also moved the 1st and 1nd Regiments of the 2st Parachute Division, which had been fighting before, to the opposite side. Talk about the calmer east side of the city.

It's just that this change of defense happened to move the tired soldiers of the 1st Paratrooper Division to another direction where the dwarfs were preparing to counterattack. Moreover, they are facing more elite and more ferocious enemies.

Xiang Ziyu, who had been fighting for more than 40 hours continuously, came to the position where their battalion was located. It was much better than expected. There were underground bunkers for sleeping, and bunker fortifications that could be used for warning and combat.

They are paratroopers, a unit born to fight among the enemy. They are preparing for battle at all times. This is their exclusive glory.

The dwarves built their defense lines so completely that the Tang army could take advantage of them immediately after occupying these fortifications.

The roar of anti-aircraft guns in the distance and the explosion of bombs hitting the ground hardly disturbed anyone. The too tired Datang paratroopers didn't pay attention to the noise at all, and they all slept peacefully at their positions.

Xiang Ziyu also fell asleep in a daze. He didn't even know when he closed his eyes. A wave of sleepiness came over him, and then he fell down on his bed.

"The armored reconnaissance company at the headquarters of the 1st Regiment of the 1st Armored Division has been dispersed, and our own security posts have also been arranged." After the deputy battalion commander finished speaking, he snored and didn't even have time to lie down.

Rubbing his dry eyes, Xiang Ziyu sat on his own bed. The heavy tactical backpack was at his feet, and the weapons were placed in the most convenient position.

On the other side of the battlefield, the 2nd Paratrooper Division, which was pushed up to continue fighting, was still busy. They wanted to establish a line of defense along the edge of the city and resist the enemy's attack.

If the dwarf troops are allowed to re-enter the city, the opponent is likely to use the familiar terrain and the broken troops in the city to make some fuss, and it will definitely be quite troublesome for the Tang army to deal with it.

These elite Tang Army soldiers used ruins and buildings to build their own defensive positions. Their machine guns were well equipped and various firepower points were clearly arranged. They are veterans of countless battles, and they have probably parachuted more often than their opponents have done live-fire training.

After giving orders one after another, around eight o'clock in the evening, the western troops of the Tang Army were ready for battle, but the dwarf troops preparing to attack them did not know that their actions had been exposed long ago.

The communication was intercepted and the operation was discovered. The Dwarf 2nd Army Reserve, which had almost marched in openly, with two divisions and one regiment of troops, was not fully assembled.

In fact, it is impossible for these troops to fully assemble and launch an attack: the Tang army has air superiority, and it is impossible to fully expand the scale of so many troops assembled.

Therefore, if you look at the map, these dwarf troops are almost connected in a line. The armored troops opened the way, followed by infantry on both sides, and the frontal width was only less than one kilometer.

At about 9 o'clock, a fierce battle broke out in the ruins on the west side of Benn City. Only then did the dwarf troops finally hit the real opponent who intercepted them.

An hour ago, they were still congratulating themselves on how lucky they were. General Harf even thought that the Tang Army did not fully control Benn City at all, and his troops could easily break into the city.

However, it turned out that he was too optimistic. After encountering the Tang Army's defense line, his troops immediately reported heavy losses: they lost at least 10 tanks in the first wave of attacks, and the battlefield was full of burning fires. The attacking infantry battalion almost completely lost its combat capability.

The firepower of the Tang Army's paratroopers was so fierce that the dwarves could not believe it. The tanks were destroyed by rocket launchers, and the following infantry were suppressed by grenades and mortars. The entire battle was a one-sided massacre.

Harf realized his recklessness. After hitting the iron plate, he truly understood how the turtle tactics formulated by General Moss fit the dwarves' situation.

Unfortunately, it was already too late: at about ten o'clock in the evening, the dwarf counterattack force on the west side of Benn City was attacked by the Tang Air Force and the Naval Air Force.

The troops originally invested were not lost on the offensive battlefield, but were destroyed on the road while waiting in line behind them.

The cluster bombs dropped by the Tang army were extremely effective when attacking cluster targets. After several rounds of air strikes, the dwarf offensive troops were almost paralyzed on both sides of the road.

This is no joke: the heavy equipment that was not destroyed was blocked on the road by the debris of the bombed equipment, and the troops who left the road had to face the Tang Army's subsequent air attacks at a slow marching speed.

Because it was night, the dwarves' own anti-aircraft artillery was just a display, and those so-called anti-aircraft concealment measures were completely useless. From the perspective of the pilots of the Tang Air Force, the long dark red dragons of the dwarf troops stood out in the dark night, even clearer than the targets they used during training.
