The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 374 Fighting

"Where is Mr. Caliput? Where are the other cavalrymen? Why didn't they come?" Some people said in panic. They are about to face an overwhelming opponent, but reinforcements are few and far between. "Are we abandoned?" Sometimes unknowns and rumors are more powerful than bullets! \u003c/p\u003e"Shut up, you coward." Pershing jumped off his horse, and then kicked the yelling Boer to the ground! And such a rough and simple behavior caused a commotion, and almost everyone focused their attention on this! \u003c/p\u003e"You gringo, what are you doing! Let go of my brother!" A Gundam Boer rushed through the crowd, trying to push Pershing away, but in the face of this professional soldier, this Kong has muscles and no brains The guy couldn't watch enough, and Perxing's simple movements made him kneel to the side while clutching his stomach! \u003c/p\u003e "Brothers, comrades! We are from the United States, on the other side of the Atlantic. Before this, I never thought that I would come here and fight side by side with a group of Boers! More than 100 years ago, for the United States Born, your ancestors fought side by side with us and taught the British a lesson. Now, it's time for us to repay our debts! We are fighting like you, and in times of crisis, we come to help! said Pershing loudly. \u003c/p\u003e"The enemy is now, my companions and I did not evade, but came from a safe place to help everyone. We used our own lives as a guarantee, but I don't know why in this situation, we still Does anyone think the Legion has abandoned you? You should have seen me and know who I am, I pledge my life and my dignity as a soldier, Mr. Caliput and the rest of the brothers are preparing for battle! They need a The right opportunity to defeat the opponent, and all we have to do is hold on for a while! That's all!"\u003c/p\u003ePershing's encouraging words stabilized the residents, and under the command of officers at all levels, those who did not have to go to the front line The logistics force also started to move. They began to deploy the defense line along the terrain. The artillery and machine guns were placed on two high grounds not far from each other, and the mortar was placed in a pit in the rear. Soldiers began to prepare their own single-man bunkers, and then quickly expanded to connect with each other. \u003c/p\u003eThe coachman placed hundreds of carts of various types on the periphery of the front line, considering that the opponent might use cavalry to charge the battle. These vehicles should be considered as temporary refusals. The engineers chose flat terrain, which is the most suitable place for large troops to attack, and some people even hung a few suggested booby traps near the carriage. Already amazed them! \u003c/p\u003e"The two wings of the position are heavy firepower. There are two lines of defense in the front and mortars in the back. We have 15 artillery pieces of various calibers and no less than 25 machine guns. It should be all right?" The commander said with some concern. \u003c/p\u003e"Sure, even if your artillery and machine guns are not enough, don't you still have ours? My people are the most elite fighters, and they use the best weapons in their hands. We can definitely stop the British Yes!" Pershing loaded the semi-automatic rifle in his hand and put it aside. When necessary, he and everyone in the entire headquarters must charge forward like an ordinary infantryman! \u003c/p\u003e"The British have completed the encirclement of the artillery unit, and they began to shrink the encirclement. If nothing else, all of them are here! A full 5,000 people, the strength of a cavalry division!"\u003c/p\u003eIn On a hill, Caliput and others can overlook the entire battlefield, and the three British detachments have closed their formation. The army of thousands of people pressed up from the side and surrounded the Boers on the opposite side.

They began to deploy machine guns and artillery, while another part of the cavalry dismounted and prepared for infantry. The battle location is close to the river, the soil humidity is relatively high, and it will be a little muddy. It is not a good choice for cavalry to charge. Especially when the Boers also deployed machine guns and artillery on the opposite side. \u003c/p\u003e"As long as the defending troops can block the opponent's two rounds of attacks, we can rush down from behind and kick their asses hard. The British dropped a lot of artillery. Apart from their numbers, they have no firepower advantage." Will Jon said in a very relaxed tone. \u003c/p\u003eThe 5,000-man British army is terrifying, but they are now in a state of defense with a strong attack and a large number of artillery defenders. The casualties must be heavy. When they are exhausted, it is time for the Boers to launch a counterattack! Caught off guard, 1,500 elite Boer cavalry can pierce through the opponent's fragile rear! \u003c/p\u003e "It's not that easy. I have always wondered about a problem. Our position is in front of the artillery. Why can the British cavalry pass through the artillery behind us and miss us? This is unscientific! It's like you saw the gold coins in the box but didn't see the box." Caliput frowned. \u003c/p\u003e "You mean it's a trap?" Will Jon said suspiciously. \u003c/p\u003e"I just suspect that another group of people found the mobile artillery, yes, it must be like this, otherwise, how could the cavalry who had thrown away most of their heavy weapons attack a force with a large number of artillery and machine guns ? That's courting death! The British must have reinforcements!" Caliput said with certainty. \u003c/p\u003eAnd an hour later, another unit appeared in the sight of the Boers. The front of this unit was a row of trucks and tractors, guarded by cavalry on both sides, and they rushed to the battlefield with a large number of artillery. Then blocked the retreat path of the mobile artillery from the other side, and the two British troops finally joined together. They were like a huge pincer, clamping the walnut in front of them fiercely! \u003c/p\u003e"Hiss, it's too bad, the enemy's situation has changed!" Will Jon gasped, the situation in front of them was completely beyond their expectations. The number of British troops more than doubled that of the Boers! Even if you launch an assault yourself, I'm afraid it may not be effective! \u003c/p\u003e"The First Cavalry Regiment should be nearby, send someone to look for them." Caliput said. \u003c/p\u003e "What if you can't find it?" Will Jon asked. \u003c/p\u003e "Then we can only go up, even if we run out, we must not let the British evacuate their front-line defeated troops!" The British army of about 7,500 people is already a very powerful force , Enough to stabilize the ground for the retreating British army on the front line! And if the tens of thousands of British troops withdraw, then the efforts of the Boers for several months will lose half of their value! \u003c/p\u003e"Well, the roulette wheel of war has begun to spin, let fate decide everything!" Let's wait and see! \u003c/p\u003eThe second update is ~~~, please subscribe\u003c/a\u003e~~~! \u003c/p\u003e\u003c/div\u003e
