C2870 Young officer

"First Battalion of the Third Guard Infantry Regiment." "Assault!"

In the nick of time, there were suddenly shouts of war from the next block, followed by two explosions. A large portion of the buildings close to the French machine-gun positions collapsed.

Broken pieces of bricks and tiles flew all over the place. Machine gunner who was just about to shoot was suddenly smashed into a pile of bricks, causing the shooter who was about to pull the trigger to faint immediately.

"Enemy attacks from the side …" The French army roared, and a very young officer jumped out of the gap left by the ruins. He waved his banner, and behind him, hundreds of Prussian army infantry roared, each holding a bayonet in their hands, causing the sky to tremble.

At the very end of the line, the cannon muzzles of two field gun s were emitting smoke while the gunners were busy loading up the ammunition!

This officer was only in his twenties, but he already had the rank of lieutenant on his military uniform. His well-ironed military uniform set off his age, making him look unbearably imposing.

The Prussian army that had barged into the battlefield very quickly submerged Flosad's machine gun position, the archers immediately turned into spirits of the dead, the remaining Prussian army turned their machine guns around and started firing at the French side.

"Da Da Da …" "Da Da Da …" Bullets rained down on the charging French troops, and these crazy veterans were swept down like cut leeks.

"Damn it!" Flosad cursed angrily: "Whoever guards the flank deserves to die! Reserve Force... "Prepare to attack!"

Clatter clatter clatter * The bugle horn sounded, and the sounds of horses' hooves could be heard from behind Prism Castle # 5. Flosad's last thousand riders were also pushed onto the battlefield!

"First Battalion …" Scatter Hold... "Set up a shooting cover …"

The young officer did not panic at all, and he began to order his men to use the inexhaustible materials from the ruins on the street to build a temporary shooting bunker.

The entire wooden beam, tattered sandbags, half of the brick wall, and even some broken furniture were piled up on the street!

This officer seemed to be very knowledgeable about the Chinese soil and timber operations. Even the temporary fortifications built for field operations had eyes and noses. In the middle of the three short walls, there were even trenches that were cut off from each other.

One by one, the soldiers crouched behind their bunkers, sticking their guns through the cracks in the bricks to fire at the French.

By this time, the thousand cavalrymen had already completed their acceleration, and the ground under the trampling of the horses on the street began to tremble. Very soon, the cavalrymen had reached the front of the fortifications.

The war horses could regroup the human army, but they could not break through the cover of broken bricks and wood. One by one, the cavalrymen used their war horses to leap into the air, but as soon as they jumped up, they realized that something was wrong.

This group of Prussian army were too cunning, the entire area more than 10 metres behind the shooting bunker was filled with junk, the war horses had no place to land.

Miserable screams could be heard as the warhorse stepped on the trash. The crisp sounds of bones breaking could be heard, and the leading riders, along with their horses, fell into the Prussian army's camp.

At this time, the Prussian army who had hidden away all jumped up one by one, raised their bayonets and stabbed the armored cavalry to death!

Wang Chen had already merged with the Prussian army soldiers who were helping him, his bayonet was already broken. Right now, he had obtained two miners' shovels from an unknown place, if he swung them it would be like Li Kui's axe, sweeping away the lives of French cavalry soldiers that were rushing at him.

"Which unit are you from?" Wang Chen asked with an accent.

"First Battalion of the third Infantry Guard Regiment." The young officer was hiding behind his bunker with a flag in his hand, dodging the enemy's bullets.

"What?" "Say that again …" Wang Chen asked loudly.

The battlefield was in complete chaos. Neither of them could understand what the other two were saying. In addition, both of them spoke English with accents, so the result was the same as a chicken and a duck.

"Forget it, I'll remember you anyways. I'll definitely celebrate with the leader later. I remember your banner and how you looked …"

"What …" The Head of State … Has the Führer come to the battlefield himself? "

"How many soldiers do you have? How much longer can you last... We need 20 minutes... "

"Where is the Führer? Do you need my help? "

What the two of them said wasn't on the same channel at all. It was quite lively outside of the city when you shouted at each other.

But these two troops who had never cooperated with each other before were firmly blocking the charge of more than a thousand French cavalry!

Wang Chen praised the young officer's well-conducted, beautiful temporary shelter, and the young Prussian officer also sighed at the unique equipment that the Chinese soldier was wearing, as well as his extremely sharp street fighting tactics.

Rankers and rankers would always appreciate each other, and in the end, Wang Chen even gifted the young officer a set of shotgun s with large caliber as well as dozens of ammunition.

"Keep it to protect your life! "It seems like this kind of thing is more useful in the chaotic army. Every single attack is a big wave!"

"Thank you …" I still want to know where the Führer is? Can I have an autograph? "

"No matter what you say, I still don't understand. Let's first beat back the enemy before talking about anything else! We have to hold on for 20 minutes... "Until our artillery reinforcements arrive!"

"Cannon..." I have a cannon here... "But there are only ten bullets left …"

Boom! Boom! Boom! The explosion interrupted their shouts, the Napoleon Cannon on the Prism Castle was currently firing at them, the cannonball exploded at the nearest distance, and the dust and broken bricks rained down on them.

"Damn it!" How to tear down this fortress... Why is it so strong that even the cannons cannot penetrate through! " Wang Chen shook the dust off his brain, then looked at the seven meter tall Prism Castle and cursed.

"That is a Prism Castle … It's specially used to defend against artillery shells. Didn't you notice the prism on the side of the fort? "It can cushion the impact of a cannonball …" The young officer said loudly.

The Prism Castle was a unique fortress that appeared in the Middle Ages. Its biggest characteristic was that it had a very high defense against cannons.

It seemed that the sloping walls made it easy for the soldiers to climb, but this slant made it easy for the shells to jump, and the slant broke down most of the impact.

Furthermore, because the Prism Castle was not a horizontal wall, but existed as a star, it could easily form an angle of fire. Attacking this kind of fortress with infantry was a type of suicide.

The soldiers who attacked from the front would not only face the suppressive firepower from the front, but also the firepower from the left and right flanks. The enemies on three sides were destined to suffer heavy casualties.

The Prism Castle in Sedan City had such a sturdy defense, and such a thick wall was not something that could be destroyed by exploding artillery, but during the entire battle, the Prussian army did not have any cannons to prepare the large caliber. Facing such a tough bone that was difficult to bite off, the Prussian army could only rely on the workers to charge forward to destroy it.

Wang Chen looked at the Prism Castle that was firing its cannons, and his eyes seemed to be about to spew fire. If not for this broken fortress, we would have already killed our way in to capture French Emperor alive! "

"Haven't our artillery reinforcements arrived yet? "Clean up the broken houses around us and prepare to be bombed by engineers!"
