    Chapter 257: Battle of Yaoguang Star (7)

    Not only were the soldiers tired, but the ammunition and energy reserves were also almost exhausted. The officers had to gather all kinds of materials and deploy them uniformly. Heavy weapons were also seriously damaged under the attack of the Imperials, and there were more and more Imperials.  , the offense is getting more and more crazy.

    Zhang Zekai and other Commander Charno knew very well that the crazier the Imperial people's attack, the closer their reinforcements were.

    They kept cheering for the soldiers, persisting, persisting, and persisting. As long as they persist, they can survive!

    At this time, this war is no longer for Charno, for the motherland, they are just fighting for their own survival.

    The tired soldiers mechanically shot at all moving targets outside the position. Sometimes their minds went blank and shooting became an instinct for them.

    Zhang Tailai, the commander of the 130th Division, would order the artillery to organize artillery support for the trench area defended by Zhang Zekai and the others every once in a while. This was the only support he could provide to Zhang Zekai and the others.  He knew and understood that Zhang Zekai and the others were under a lot of pressure. They had no reinforcements and no coordination from friendly forces, and Zhang Zekai also had a group of alliance soldiers whose will had been broken by the cruel war.

    The electronic suppression by the Imperials is getting stronger and stronger, and now the 130th Division cannot even guarantee internal communications.  Almost all positions are fighting independently. Every time Zhang Tailai needs artillery support, he needs to send out communication troops to run and notify. There are not many of the more than 30 communication troops in the division left, and most of them fell down during communication.

    Zhang Zekai watched coldly as several soldiers dragged the body of an Allied soldier aside. The soldier's eyes were wide open and he looked lifelessly at the dark sky. His expression was very peaceful and calm.  .  But just now, this young soldier who had completely collapsed wildly brandished his gun and injured three soldiers, two of whom were still his comrades.  This is already the fourth Union soldier who collapsed. The other Union soldiers also looked at their killed comrades coldly, their eyes were very complicated, showing both disgust and pity. Perhaps even they themselves could not explain clearly what they were feeling at this moment.  What does it feel like in my heart.

    For more than ten hours, Union soldiers wearing sky-blue Union uniforms fought side by side with Charnow soldiers wearing khaki combat uniforms. They experienced fear, panic, and numbness, and finally began to get used to the rhythm of war, and began to get used to the cruel and cruel  A bloody battlefield.  But not everyone can do this. Some young Union soldiers did not survive this test. They were overwhelmed by tremendous psychological pressure and fear of death.

    Zhang Zekai turned around and focused his attention on the imperial attack again.  This was not the first time he had seen such a thing. In the early days of the war, the same thing happened to Charno soldiers, but he still felt a dull pain in his heart.  If it hadn't been for this damn war, maybe this wouldn't have happened.

    The figures of the imperial soldiers are getting closer and closer, and dozens of mechas and tanks are still driving at the forefront of the skirmishing formation.

    "Call artillery support!" Zhang Zekai said,

    "Yes!" Rabbit took out the flare gun from his waist and fired three red flares into the air. Since the Imperials suppressed all wireless communications, Zhang Zekai and the others have been using this method to communicate with the headquarters in the rear.  After so many years of war, the Charno people have developed an effective signal communication method from the war.

    Three minutes later, intensive artillery fire enveloped the Imperial formation. Under the cover of artillery fire, dozens of soldiers holding shoulder-fired attack missiles rushed out of the trenches. They ran forward quickly until they reached the  Not far from the artillery attack range, their target was the Imperial mecha.

    Zhang Zekai no longer has any mechas in his hands that can be put into the battlefield.

    The last two mechas were blown to pieces by Imperial fighter planes in the previous wave of attacks.  The thirty-six mecha warriors of the mecha detachment and the remains of their mechas stood quietly on the battlefield, corresponding to the fifty-seven burning remains of the imperial mechas.

    The desperate Charno soldiers braved their own artillery fire and destroyed seven mechas in the thick smoke of the explosion, before being beaten into pieces by the imperial mecha's machine cannon.  After the fierce long-range artillery strike, only six Imperial mechas were left in this attack.  The ground roared, and the huge losses seemed to anger the imperial mechas. Their strong steel bodies began to accelerate. Behind them, the four heavy tanks that had survived the gunfire also made a rumbling roar and accelerated towards the trench. Rapid fire on the turret  The cannon kept spraying flames, and the thick main gun muzzle kept rotating to find a target to attack.  After the steel body, a tide of Imperial Marines also began to charge.

    With a bright smile on his face, Zhang Zekai leaned against the side of the trench with the last cigarette in his mouth.  war?At this point, he no longer needs to command anything. Just now was his last fight.  If he could eventually destroy all the Imperial mechanical armor, he and his soldiers could still hold on until the next wave of attacks.  Unfortunately, his combat goal was not achieved.

    Zhang Zekai took a greedy drag on his cigarette. There was no one around him. "Rabbit" took the initiative to join the death squad. He said that his runner was faster, and the smile on his face was so bright.  When he thought of this, Zhang Zekai felt a dull pain in his heart.  What a fine young man!  Zhang Zekai felt as if a ball of water mist was blocking his sight.

    "Thirteen is such an unlucky number," Zhang Zekai muttered softly. "Rabbit" Liang Shaoguang was his thirteenth correspondent and the last one.

    Zhang Zekai heard sparse gunshots in his ears, and his soldiers were still fighting back.  He wiped his face vigorously, "Are you still breathing? Get me a gun!" No one answered, only scattered gunshots.

    A dazzling beam of light fell from the sky, and a loud noise was made not far from the front. This is the starship cannon of the starship!

    "Grandma, at this time, the people in the empire must be in trouble." Zhang Zekai was knocked to the ground by the air wave mixed with thick smoke and dust. He kept coughing, holding one hand on the ground and pointing outwards.  Spitting out the mud in his mouth.

    He raised his head and looked at the sky, and more beams of light were falling from the sky.

    Suddenly Zhang Zekai seemed to think of something. He climbed up with all his strength and threw himself to the edge of the trench. There was another huge roar. The ground seemed to be shaking in pain, and the dust raised up almost covered half of the battlefield.  The target of the starship cannon is not them, but the attacking Imperials.

    Zhang Zhekai raised his head again in surprise. The flash of light in the area where the imperial fleet stayed in space seemed much more intense than before, and from time to time there were beams of light streaking through the air.

    "Our reinforcements have arrived!" Zhang Zekai shouted loudly.

    In the dense gunfire, not many people could hear what he was shouting, but he didn't care, he just wanted to shout loudly.

    Zhang Zekai stood on a high slope. The dust raised by the explosion had not yet dispersed. He could vaguely see the looming figure of the Imperial mecha, and the Imperial people were retreating.

    There was a loud bugle sound faintly behind him, and Zhang Zekai felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling. It was the horn of charge, and it was the signal of counterattack. The bugle sound was getting closer and closer, and there was a rush of gunfire coming towards him.  The wind smelling like the battlefield brought the roars of the comrades.

    Several fighter planes roared past the sky, with Charno's battle flags flashing on both wings of the fuselage!

    Zhang Zekai jumped out of the trench, holding the Charno battle flag high in his uninjured right hand, and the military flag fluttering in the wind was flying above the defense line.

    Zhang Zekai rushed towards the imperial position alone. The battle flag seemed to have infinite magic power. Exhausted figures jumped out of the deep trenches. Many soldiers did not know what happened. They only knew what the battle flag meant.  Means, if you advance, never retreat!

    The earth was trembling, shaking, and a wave of silver-gray steel surged behind them. More and more battle flags appeared on the battlefield, and the roar of the sea echoed with the loud charge. They  In front of them were imperial soldiers fleeing in panic.

    After experiencing a hard battle, they finally ushered in the dawn of victory.

    In the sky, the Charno fighter planes forming a tactical formation and the Imperial fighter planes were fighting each other in the air. From time to time, fighter planes with black smoke from their tails fell from the sky. After a stalemate for three to five minutes, the Imperial fighter planes began to evacuate.  The landing craft also left the ground and headed towards the mothership in space.

    The Imperial fleet retreated, and the Imperial soldiers who had not had time to board the landing craft helplessly dropped their weapons and raised their hands high.

    A few Earth hours later, images of the battle were spread to the public Internet by some radical war reporters.

    Both sides invested a total of 400,000 troops in the battle of Yaoguang Star, including 27,000 troops from the Charno 130th Division and 30,000 from the Alliance Army. Almost all the 30,000 troops from the Democratic Alliance Army suffered casualties after the battle. The 130th Division also  The casualties were huge, and more than 13,000 soldiers lay on Yaoguang Star forever.

    The Empire invested a total of more than 300,000 troops, including 100,000 starship troops and more than 200,000 ground assault troops. At least 70,000 Imperial Marines died in the battle.

    If you look at the numbers alone, this should be a rare victory.  However, Douglas, who had just arrived at the capital star, could not laugh no matter what. The uncensored battlefield video that had been circulated on the Internet faithfully recorded the chaos of the Alliance Army in the early stages of the war and how it manifested itself in the later battles.  The disadvantage of low combat effectiveness.

    The helpless cries of young soldiers who suffered mental breakdown made the entire Democratic Alliance media collectively lose their voice.  This isAre we proud soldiers?  All the easy war predictions made by pre-war military analysts collapsed in the face of hard facts. As a senior commentator said, in this battle, the truly vulnerable ones are not the Imperials, but the Democratic Alliance.  Own.
