Chapter forty-ninth hard fight
The battlefield north of Victoria.
Under the roar of artillery fire, a torrent of steel composed of MS troops and various armored vehicles charged towards the Zaft line along the jungle on Lake Victoria.
The fifth MS Mixed Brigade is just a small part of it, and Li Boyong's third MS combat company is just a small wave in the torrent.
But even such a wave was subjected to fierce resistance.
As the first wave of offensives of the Fifth Mixed Brigade, four attacking daggers of the Third MS combat company were covered in two groups under the command of Li Boyong, and promoted alternately with shields. When approaching the Zaft army's defense line, they were counterattacked by the Zaft army.
A 500MM rear-mounted gun stood up on each of the two cliffs and fired two shells at the third MS combat company.
One shot directly destroyed an armored vehicle, and the other shot was blown on Li Boyongji's shield, and the shield was blown away directly.
"Damn it, I'll run and rush to the expected battle position."
At the command of Li Boyong, the entire third MS combat brigade accelerated its advancement.
Li Boyong operated the serpentine run with a strong attack sword. Then he avoided two shells in the cover of the dense forest and rushed to behind a rock near the cliff. The rest of the aircraft also arrived at the terrain near the cliff where it could be used as a cover.
These positions are several positions selected by Li Boyong yesterday, which can be used as cover for MS and barely confront the enemy on the cliff.
Everything was barely under the plan, but I was directly hit by a shell, not only losing the shield, but even the left arm holding the shield lost its response. It was just hanging on the left side of the body with an electric spark.
Li Boyong secretly cursed the mass production junk that cut corners and began to use a 57-caliber beam rifle to counterattack on the cliffs. After entering the pre-selected position, the rest of the aircraft also began to counterattack.
For a moment, the Zaft army on the cliff and the United Army under the cliff were fighting back and forth.
However, it is not just Li Boyong's MS team that unites here.
After Li Boyong stood firm in front, other troops from the Fifth Mixed Brigade who set out later rose one after another, the first and second MS combat companies surrounded each other.
But these two MS teams were soon attacked by artillery fire from Zaft's army. Li Boyong heard the news and should have been Zaute's cannon, and more than one.
Two MS teams surrounding the left were shelled and their momentum was blocked. Then, a long-awaited Xigu suddenly broke out in the dense forest on the left.
Compared with ordinary Xigu, this Xigu has an additional shoulder shield on each side of the left and right shoulders. He carries a 500MM rear-mounted cannon in one hand and a slashing fencing sword in the other hand and rushes into the formation of the Joint MS team on the left.
Is this a strong attack on Xigu?
Captain's plane?
Li Boyong also noticed the movement on the left, but he didn't expect that the enemy's captain's plane would lie alone in such a ghost place...
The sound of gunfire in battle sounded on the left, but before two minutes had been fired, Li Boyong noticed that there were two signals that had been lost to attack the daggers there.
Damn it, four against one, and two were killed so quickly...
This captain plane that suddenly appeared would not have done the four attacks on the other side by one, and then came over to copy the way for their own team...
Li Boyong was uneasy, and there was another noise from the MS team on the right. It must have been that he had stepped on the armored mines arranged in advance.
Listening to the messy communication over there, it seemed that two attacking daggers had their legs damaged.
Then a new Gene appeared on the cliff to suppress the fire, dragged down by two attacking daggers with damaged legs, and the entire MS team was dragged into a terrain without cover.
Li Boyong smiled bitterly at this. Today, he was just a tentative attack, but he lost five powerful attack short swords before he could fight.
Sure enough, there is still a big gap in the experience of using MS troops between the United and Zaft Army.
Li Boyong had no choice but to do so. The left and right offensive was frustrated, but he had already entered a state of war on the front line, so he had no time to support both sides.
Fortunately, the Fifth Mixed Brigade had more than this force. After the offensive was blocked, two MS teams were dispatched to support the left and right sides respectively, replacing the two MS teams that were so heavy that they didn't do anything, fully reflecting the advantage of large people and large forces.
The attack type on the left faced the newly added attack dagger team, and then retreated back into the dense forest. Although he still injured a attack dagger with a back seat-free cannon before leaving, he still could not stop the advance of the Fifth MS Mixed Brigade.
Unfortunately, before the United side was happy for a minute, the roar of heavy artillery sounded from behind Zaft's defense line.
But it turned out that there was a medium-sized land warship of the Zaft Army, hidden in the dense forest behind the cliffs.
The Zaft army continued to attract but did not trigger it until after the battle was cleared, it used this killing move.
The follow-up troops of the Fifth MS Mixed Brigade were constantly being accurately bombarded by heavy artillery, and in just five minutes, they lost three more attacking daggers.
The Brigade Command had no choice but to issue a retreat order.
"Damn, how can I remove it when I ask me to..."
Li Boyong complained a lot, but he still had to execute the order.
It seems that today's tentative offensive ends here, and the Zaft defenders on the opposite side have a much larger force than expected.
"Bob and I cover up, and the other two retreat first."
I don’t know if it’s because of the commander’s skills. The three rookies who went to the battlefield for the first time did not make any mistakes and obediently carried out Li Boyong’s orders.
Two powerful attacks and daggers retreated first, while Li Boyong focused on the top of the cliff.
Sure enough, two Genes on the cliff began to shoot at the two retreating daggers. Li Boyong was ready and shot the other party's head with one shot.
Then Li Boyong suppressed another continuous firepower, which made Gene on the cliff unable to lift it in a short period of time, so he took Bob to retreat.
As soon as the Zaft army showed a trace of pursuit, they joined forces with the artillery fire support from the rear and successfully covered Li Boyong and others to retreat to a safe position.
After half an hour of war, the first wave of offensive of the Fifth MS Mixed Brigade was repelled, with a lot of losses, but he could barely find out some of the military configurations on the opposite side.
The MS troops, including Li Boyong, participated in the first wave of offensives, temporarily retreated and repaired, and the damaged body was undergoing emergency repairs.
The Fifth MS Mixed Brigade called for a wave of air support, suppressed the opponent's wave, and then asked the remaining dozen other strong attacks to launch a second wave of attacks.
After the first wave of attacks, the second wave of attacks was not that hard, and it lasted for quite a while, but it still failed to attack two cliffs. Three attacks were injured and attacked the daggers and retreated.
This wave of offensive lasted quite a long time, giving Li Boyong time to command the preparation team to repair his body's arms and have lunch.
