Chapter 255 The Second Echelon

The third round of artillery fire came.

These shells that had completed parameter correction did not fully cover the enemy's positions, but instead targeted all the marked firepower points.

It must be said that the exploratory reconnaissance of 100,000 people was very valuable, and those deeply hidden firepower points were dug out one by one.

Several shells first smashed the bunkers and explosion-proof layers above, and then more shells were embedded in them, sending the personnel inside to the sky in the fire that ignited everything.

One by one, the hidden bunkers were smashed, and the infected Leman Russ tanks that were still wandering on the positions were also destroyed in such firepower.

This bombardment lasted for an hour, and then Grenadier 19 began to hold the breastwork with one hand, ready to turn over and move forward when he heard the whistle of the charge.

Beep!

The long-awaited charge whistle finally sounded, and all the second-tier offensive personnel on the entire position quickly entered the battlefield.

No war cry, no fear.

Breathing is war, silence is the horn.

Apart from the sound of boots hitting the ground, there was no extra movement on the entire battlefield.

When Grenadier 19 and his men charged to half the distance from the enemy line, they heard the whistling of the fourth round of shells piercing the sky.

These shells followed the soldiers' charge and fell 500-800 meters in front of them. This was the maximum distance that their coats and built-in ceramic armor could resist the shell fragments.

The coordination of the Kriegs' infantry charge and artillery fire can be said to be flawless.

The artillery hit the heart of the enemy's attempt to counterattack, and the infantry charge would crush the enemy's last hope of resistance.

In rounds of artillery cover and attack, the remaining combat personnel who could stay in this first line can be said to have been completely wiped out.

Tens of thousands of people fell into the trenches that had lost their supporting structures after being bombed. They quickly used the engineering tools in their hands to dig and rebuild.

They needed to establish a new front-line command post to provide more accurate parameters for the artillery in the rear.

The grenadiers did not stay with the engineers. They followed the barrage and attacked the second group of bunkers caught in the melee.

It seems that the first wave of personnel have not been killed yet. They are still demonstrating their loyalty to the emperor in the enemy's line.

What an honor!

Grenadier 19 moved around in the craters, and his subordinates were also scattered in the land full of craters to avoid the enemy's fire.

A frontal charge is useless except for consuming the enemy's bullets. As elite grenadiers, they must drag more imperial traitors to hell before they can die peacefully.

Quickly pulling out several grenades from his waist, Grenadier 19 threw these fragmentation grenades.

His behavior is not the only one among all the charging grenadiers. Almost all grenadiers will throw half of their grenades into the enemy's trenches within the maximum distance they can throw.

Bayonets, cannons, grenades.

These weapons that can be deployed on a large scale are the key to the Kriegs' breakthrough of the trench defense system.

The grenades were thrown into the trench accurately, falling on the enemy's heads like rain. Grenadier 19 could even hear the panicked rebels inside trying to throw the grenades out.

A hand just stretched out from the trench, and it seemed that it was about to throw a grenade that was about to explode. Then the exposed arm was pierced by Grenadier 19, and the remains without bone and muscle support fell with the grenade.

The whole trench was burning! It was all exploding! It was like a whole line of 1,000 firecrackers were set off at the same time, and flesh and fragments, with all kinds of fragments, tore everything in the trench apart.

Grenadier 19 stood on the trench and watched their combat results. The entire trench was full of metal fragments inserted into the wall, and there were pieces of meat stuck on the ground and the wall.

But this does not mean that all the defending enemies were killed.

Those rebels who reacted quickly and were closer to the bunkers and tunnels rushed out from behind their shelters.

Grenadier 19 relied on the defense of his heavy armor and did not look for any shelter at the first time. He quickly cleared the enemies who tried to fight back with the powerful hell gun in his hand.

These rebels who were a little confused by the rain of grenades could only hide behind a low wall with their heads down under the suppression of the hell gun, and just stretched out their weapons to fight back.

The suppression shooting of the hell gun was somewhat unbelievably accurate. Those weapons that just poked their heads out were pierced through the barrels by a series of rapid bursts.

Some of the refraction of the burning beams on the metal even caused some rebels to be traumatized.

The hell gun was still suppressing them, and these people heard the sound of the heavy military boots getting closer and closer to them.

A rebel who was suspected to be the captain, his rubber gas mask had been attached to his flesh, and the hose for filtering air stretched out from his throat.

The captain dropped his automatic rifle, took out a light chain saw axe, and weighed a smoke grenade in his hand.

He kicked one of his men hard, causing the poor guy to break out of the bunker and be turned into a burning ash by the firepower of the hell gun.

The captain took advantage of the short time for the hell gun to change its target and threw the smoke grenade.

Grenadier 19 quickly caught the grenade flying from behind the bunker, and the hell gun shot hit the small dangerous object.

The explosion did not occur, but the thick smoke obscured Grenadier 19's vision.

Grenadier 19, knowing that the situation was not good, pulled out the engineer shovel on his waist, and he saw the smoke surging.

Is it the wind? The wind should not be so violent.

With a clang!

A chain saw axe that broke through the smoke collided with the engineer shovel in his hand.

Then more enemies rushed from both sides, holding bloody and poorly maintained bayonets. These weapons were completely incomparable to the engineer shovel that Grenadier 19 carefully maintained to a shine.

But these weapons are still threatening to the gaps that are not protected by heavy armor.

I will not die in such a place, you are not qualified to make me willingly atone for my sins.

Grenadier 19 thought that these enemies in front of him were too weak and useless, and dying in their hands was really an insult to his road to atonement.

He used his engineer shovel to resist the suppression of the rebel captain's chain saw axe with one hand.

He pulled out another bayonet and determined the specific position of the enemy's weapons through the flow of smoke. While deflecting the enemy's bayonet attack, he also successfully cut off their wrists holding the bayonets.

Seeing the failure of this surprise attack, the rebel captain raised one foot and kicked Grenadier 19 in the chest.

The iron boots made of various steel scraps did nothing except scratch the heavy armor.

Grenadier 19's body did not even lose balance due to such a strong kick. He took advantage of the situation to hold the leg that had not been retracted after kicking, and lowered his head.

The chain saw axe that broke through the engineer shovel failed to chop off Grenadier 19's head, but only cut the embossed double-headed eagle on the forehead guard of his helmet.

Grenadier 19 watched the forehead plate of his helmet fall to the ground, and directly smashed the thigh that was grabbed with his elbow.

The completely broken thigh made the rebel captain scream in pain, but this was not the end.

Feeling angry and guilty, Grenadier 19 used the engineer shovel in his hand to chop off the head of the enemy who rushed towards him. Then he gave up using the sharp shovel blade to end the life of the rebel captain, and chose to hit his head hard with the back of the shovel.

With the ruthless slap, the head began to bounce and twist like an inflated ball.

Grenadier 19 silently picked up the forehead plate that fell on the ground, wiped off the dirt on the double-headed eagle relief on it, and reinstalled it on his helmet.

He held the hell gun and the engineer shovel and continued to clean up the remnants of the rebels who were not yet dead.

No one will believe you now
