Chapter 553 Fighting to the death
After Allen gave a speech in Nanxun City, it gave a shot in the arm to the morale of the entire Dayan.
The people suddenly stopped worrying too much about the war and instead began to actively engage in production.
On the other side, the Holy Empire Front assembled 20 troops and put together an infantry army to support Dayan.
And just as Allen was giving his speech, they had successfully crossed the border of the Violet Principality and entered the territory of Dayan.
The 20-strong army did not stop at all. After a simple breakfast at the border train station, they hurriedly boarded the military train.
Heading towards Sin City...
These crusaders have no idea what awaits them...
Originally the Crusaders made adequate preparations before the war, but now the Holy Empire has completely abolished the sects.
As a result, all the spies planted by the Church in the Holy Empire were caught in one fell swoop.
The Papal States had lost control of intelligence on the Holy Empire, and even knew very little about the true situation in Da Yan.
All we know is that the National Defense Forces currently have only about 100 million active troops, and they have also stationed troops in the Holy Empire.
Prevent the Holy Empire from rising up in rebellion...
But what they didn't know was that these garrisons were almost all recruited locally.
Rather than being responsible for suppressing the rebellion, it is better to protect yourself...
The 20-strong Holy Empire Army marched to the City of Sin without any hesitation.
On the train, these soldiers had no fear of war.
Because in their eyes, they were going to defend their leader, who was the emperor in their eyes, Leon!
Leon: Emperor? Who is the emperor? The golden toilet emperor?
In the eyes of these soldiers, Lyon gave them a chance to be reborn.
It not only gave them the opportunity to protect their hometown, but also allowed their families to live a life without going hungry.
Although the Holy Empire is still in a state of depression, it has begun to rise steadily, and everyone is working together.
Because of Leon's appearance, they once again saw the hope of rebuilding the glory of the empire...
Even putting all that aside, Lyon managed to get them enough food to eat.
If not for anything else, just for this, Lyon must be protected!
On the other hand, the Crusaders learned that reinforcements from the Holy Empire were on the way.
The Crusaders launched an even more frenzied attack.
The inner three-ring defense line is in danger...
There is a most important place in the entire inner three-ring defense line.
That's a school.
This school connects the second ring road and the third ring road, and because its area is much larger than other buildings, if it wins, it will gain a front-line node.
The view is wide and the buildings are far apart.
The school became an excellent strategic location.
As long as a few machine guns are set up on the upper floors, the dense machine gun fire network will tear apart any enemy who wants to pass through the school.
And the school is the only place where armored forces can be deployed...
The terrain is open and the armored troops can roam freely on the playground.
Elsewhere in the city, armored units always had to be careful to guard against the Sixth Man in the buildings lining the streets.
After all, if you were given a round of anti-tank gymnastics, you would be carried out along with your tank...
On the other hand, the Crusaders also knew the importance of this school and gathered more than 10,000 soldiers to attack the school.
In order to save the school, the Guards Division sent the 4th Regiment over...
However, the leader of this regiment was William!
William never expected that he would be transferred to the Guards Division, but within a few months, the war would break out...
And this time the war broke out directly in front of me...
That day, after receiving the order, William immediately advanced towards the north of the city at high speed.
The Fourth Regiment successfully stopped the aggressive Crusaders, but its own casualties were also huge.
The Fourth Regiment lost 3000 of its 500-plus soldiers on the first day of fighting.
As the street fighting intensified, William's regiment suffered increasing casualties.
Today, there are less than 1200 people left in William's regiment.
The commander of the Guards Division initially wanted to ask William for some people.
Because the situation of other groups is not optimistic either...
However, since William had to garrison this strategic location, the division commander ultimately did not separate troops from William.
William's 1200 men also became the largest defensive position in the Guards Division's defense position...
Inside the school gymnasium.
William was discussing with several battalion commanders how to strengthen the defense.
The Crusaders' attacks for several days continued without any results.
They fled in a hurry, leaving behind thousands of corpses.
At first, William thought the Crusaders were going to give up the attack here.
But with the frequent reports of victory on other fronts, William knew that the Crusaders would definitely attack here again...
If they can't break through other lines of defense, they will definitely have to try here...
Sure enough, just as William was discussing with the battalion commanders, a sentry hurried in.
"Captain, the Crusaders are coming!"
William immediately went to the observation window and picked up the telescope beside it.
The Crusaders were seen gathering their forces outside the school, and in order to attack the school, they took out their long-forgotten large shields.
Stacked together, they form a turtle shell.
Just walked slowly towards the school.
William felt a little embarrassed when he saw this scene.
Because the school is located in an open area, the Crusader Knights of Light have to walk a long distance to reach the building.
This distance is enough for anti-tank guns to kill.
Therefore, the Guards Division left few anti-tank guns for the William Regiment, and most of the anti-tank guns were allocated to friendly forces.
But William encountered this situation today...
A Pak40 anti-tank gun fired directly at the turtle shell.
The shell hit the turtle's shell, but after a flash of light appeared on the shell, the shell fell directly to the ground.
Looking at the bullet dropped on the ground, the gunner and other soldiers were stunned.
What he just fired was not an armor-piercing bullet, but a real high-explosive bullet!
When William saw this, he immediately requested artillery support from the division headquarters.
If this turtle shell gets close, the school's defenses will collapse at any moment...
The soldiers immediately picked up their RPGs and fired at the turtle shell.
The RPG warhead was the same as the anti-tank gun warhead. It was about to hit the turtle's shell, but suddenly it failed and hit the ground directly...
William looked at the turtle shell getting closer and closer, feeling like an ant on hot pot.
William looked at the Crusaders getting closer and closer, gritted his teeth and gave the order.
"Everyone wear gas masks!"
The soldiers put on their gas masks without hesitation.
Just as I put it on, several shells with green exhaust fell on the playground...
