    ? ___________

    Now it¡¯s General Ben Weihao¡¯s turn to be troubled.

    He could endure the casualties, but the heavy casualties were so shocking that even a general like him, who didn't care much about casualties on the battlefield, began to feel chilled.

    The number of light and heavy machine guns on the opposite side and the fierce firepower have reached a frightening level, and there are actually tanks and mortars to help.

    Now, he finally began to understand why the Skeleton Commandos were called "the best of the best."

    The entire 79th Infantry Brigade was crippled. The faces of the French soldiers who were constantly attacking under the guidance of their officers were filled with panic and fear!

    That is not a war that humans should have

    Perhaps the most frustrated person was Colonel Crowell, who commanded the 79th Infantry Brigade. When he arrived in Reims, he was full of pride.

    He once participated in the Battle of Verdun with General Ben Weihao. At that time, he was still a lieutenant colonel. The general gave him the most difficult task. A regiment under his command suffered more than two-thirds of the casualties.  But still completed the task.

    But this time, he couldn¡¯t see any possibility of victory

    An atmosphere of sadness enveloped the 79th Infantry Brigade, and it also enveloped Crowell.

    At this point, General Ben Weihao seemed to have no better way. Apart from continuing to exchange human lives for victory, he really couldn't think of anything else.

    The 21st Infantry Division was thrown into the battle in advance

    This was originally a trump card reserved by General Ben Weihao in order to win the final victory, but now it seems that the battle cannot be resolved without using it.

    There are not particularly many enemies, about 600 to 800 people, but such a troop with an absolute disadvantage in numbers stands in front of the French like an iron wall.

    Now, General Ben Weihao appeared at the front of the position in person. He didn't believe that the Germans on the opposite side were really iron-clad. He didn't believe that the troops under his personal command could not break through the enemy's obstacles!

    Since the establishment of the 21st Infantry Division, the most brutal offensive and defensive battle broke out on April 19, 1917. The fully prepared 21st Infantry Division, under the personal command of Romand Benweihao, launched successive attacks on Cinohi.  Wave after wave of offensives

    In two days, no matter how many tactics General Ben Weihao changed, the final outcome was the same:

    Cinoxi is like an indestructible giant!

    That skull battle flag always stands on the German position!

    At the same time, the German Air Force also increased its dispatches. German fighter planes frequently appeared in the sky, providing all possible support to the army again and again.

    That big red fighter plane is the most conspicuous no matter where it is placed. Every time it appears, it always attracts cheers from the Skeleton Commandos.

    The man on the plane is named Manfred von Richthofen - the Red Baron!

    The French Air Force is also working hard. In terms of aircraft type and pilot quality, they are far from being the opponent of the German Air Force.

    One by one, French Air Force fighter planes were shot down. When the wreckage of the plane fell to the ground, the French infantry sighed. They suffered a disastrous defeat on the ground, and they were also failing in the sky.

    Not only in Zinochi, but also in the entire Reims-Soissons battlefield, the progress of the French was seriously unsatisfactory.  The Germans firmly defended their positions and continuously defeated enemy attacks.

    Even if some positions fell into the hands of the French with great difficulty, the German army would counterattack as soon as possible and then recapture the positions.

    The Spring Offensive broke out on April 6, 1917, and for a full twenty days from April 6 to April 26, the French suffered nothing but casualties.

    Now, their morale is declining sharply

    The French army in Reims-Soissons has suffered a total of 50,000 casualties. France cannot bear such casualties. However, if the battle ends, it means that the French "Spring Offensive" has completely failed.  This will only make the government more passive.

    Faced with a dilemma, the French Supreme Command made a desperate move, concentrating all the forces it could and launched the most ferocious and cruel attack on the Germans on the three main battlefields along the Reims-Soissons line.

    This is called the "Ten Days of Madness"

    Facing the surging French army, the German army fell into a bitter battle. Similarly, in ZinohijianThe Skeleton Commandos, who had been on guard for ten days, also fell into a bitter battle.

    The French Supreme Command made a desperate move, and General Ben Weihao also made a desperate move. He put all the troops in his hand that could be put into battle into the battlefield!

    At a glance, we can see that there are densely packed French people in front of the position. There is no formation at all in the attack. They just hold their guns and charge forward numbly, driven by the officers' whistles and shouts.

    Once, twice, three times

    The Cinuoxi position is like a small boat in a big wave. It is constantly pushed to the top of the wave, and then falls down heavily. There is a danger of being shattered to pieces anytime and anywhere.

    But every time there was an impact, there was no danger. This small boat, personally helmed by Lieutenant Colonel Ernst Brahm, fought tenaciously against the strong winds again and again!

    All the mortar shells were consumed within three days, and there was no time for replenishment. The barrels of the machine guns were red-hot, but the machine gunners still fired wildly regardless of the situation.

    In front of the position, the corpses of the French were almost piled up into hills, but they had no intention of retreating.  Once they were repulsed, before the members of the Skeleton Commando had time to breathe, a new attack began again.

    Everyone is working hard, everyone

    The war has progressed to this point, and everything has become so mechanical.  The fear of death is simply negligible because no one has time to think about such a thing.

    The number of casualties in France continues to increase, and the casualties of the Skeleton Commandos are also gradually increasing.

    Ever since Wang Weiyi became the commander of the third company, he has always been accustomed to achieving the greatest victory with the smallest casualties, but this time it was different. He had to watch with distress as the soldiers he selected and trained continued to fall to him.  on the position

    This is war, this is war

    No matter how brave a person is, he cannot escape the threat of death. The God of Death flying in the sky does not care whether those fighting on the ground are his vanguard. Whenever a life is lost, the God of Death will happily regard their souls as his own.  spoils of war.

    God is powerless at this time. He can only watch the human tragedies happening on the ground.

    As the 27th, 28th, and 29th passed day by day, the bodies could not be cleaned up in time, and the battlefield became a horrible hell.

    The team members who were still counting how many times to repel the enemy's attacks at first, now have no intention to care about these things at all.  They only knew to take advantage of the short period of time when the enemy temporarily retreated, and quickly took the time to take a good rest.  And once the officers' whistles sound, they will mechanically jump onto the trench and fire bullets from the barrel of the gun as quickly as possible.

    The nerves of both sides have reached a critical point about to collapse. Now, it depends on who can't bear the horror first and collapses.

    At the headquarters of the French 2nd Army, General P¨¦tain was anxiously watching the front line. At the headquarters of the German 2nd Army, General von Galwitz was anxiously watching the frontline.

    The French are waiting and watching, the British are waiting and watching, the Germans are waiting and watching

    "General, the Skeleton Commando has been holding on in Zinoxi for twenty-eight days." Colonel Rohr felt that he had to tell the general about this situation: "Almost all the troops on the front line have been rotated, and only En  There is no one to replace St.'s troops, General, you see."

    "It's almost over, it's almost over." With his keen sense of the battlefield, General Galwitz murmured: "The French can't hold on any longer. Their casualties are close to 100,000. This is a terrifying number.  We don't have the troops to replace the Skeleton Commandos, and maybe they don't want to be replaced and let them hold on for a few more days, the last few days."

    Colonel Roll nodded silently

    General Galwitz was silent for a moment: "Did Ernst request reinforcements?"

    "No." Colonel Rolle smiled bitterly: "Baron Skeleton and his men are all lunatics. God, what they are facing is an enemy division and a whole brigade attacking in turns. Although they have sophisticated weapons,  But God knows how they persisted. It seems that once, the enemy had rushed to the position, and officers such as Ernst, Rommel, and Manstein personally led all the team members to fight back the French.  Crazy, they really are crazy.¡±

    "Are there many casualties?" General Galwitz asked.

    "Based on the battle reports sent back from the front line, the casualties were very high. They were facing an enemy dozens of times their own, and the enemy's commander was 'General Gangdan' Ben Weihao, a man who never read casualty reports.  Francepeople.  "

    "Ben Weihao? He is an outstanding officer, but it is a pity that he met the Skeleton Baron who is even more outstanding than him." General Galwitz said in a daze: "When the French spring offensive is crushed, we will give priority to  Supply the Skeleton Commandos and give them whatever they need!" (To be continued.
