The poor Ruan Army wants to attack again and pray not to be bombed by the Tenglong Army.
Also praying not to be bombarded by French artillery would be too hard.
No matter how inaccurate the artillery of the Tenglong Army is, they will not hit the position because it is from the side.
Although the Tenglong Army faced the French bombardment and the Nguyen Army's attack, they still chose to stick to their position and resist tenaciously. They did not flinch.
They only have the desire for victory and the pursuit of glory in their eyes, and they cannot let the French team step beyond the position under any circumstances.
Intensive gunshots rang out from the Tenglong Army's position.
Light machine guns and heavy machine guns continued to kill the Nguyen soldiers on the opposite side.
It seems that everyone on the Tenglong Army is a sharpshooter. Every time a gun is fired, a Ruan Army soldier will fall down or be injured.
This was fed by a lot of bullets from the Tenglong Army.
The Ruan Army's attack did not stop because of this. They also used light machine guns to suppress the Tenglong Army's firepower points, and then continued to advance.
It's just that the quality of the light machine gun studied by France is really incomparable to that of the Tamron Army.
They were urgently developed and manufactured in China after suffering losses at the hands of the Tenglong Army.
There is a rough feeling when you hold it in your hand.
In actual combat, it either jams or explodes.
Fortunately, the cost is low and cheap, which is better than nothing.
The lethality is still more powerful than their rifles.
The casualties of this round of attack on Tenglong Army gradually increased, but Ruan Army still failed to rush to the position.
Ruan Jun lost another three to four hundred people in this round of attack.
Adding up the two rounds, the Nguyen army suffered nearly a thousand casualties, and not a single French soldier appeared.
France has only one battalion of soldiers here, about 1,300 people.
François returned to Jacques.
He was scolded severely by Jacques.
"Didn't you say that your method is feasible?"
"But we still couldn't capture the opposite position."
"Your Excellency Captain Jacques, you can't blame me for this. Although we did not capture the opposite position, the Tenglong Army suffered considerable casualties in this round of attack."
"Have you ever thought that our shell losses are not small? When we attack other colonies, these shells are enough for us to conquer a large colony."
"Now we haven't been able to capture a position on the opposite side."
"It is very likely that the General has sent people to my position. How do you want me to explain to the General?"
"Our future promotion paths will be cut off in your hands, do you know, you bastard?"
"Captain Jacques, why don't I send a report to the general again, saying that the Tenglong Army from the opposite side suddenly arrived with a support force, and the position we finally occupied was recaptured by the opposite side."
Jacques thought about it for a while. This broken method can be said to be full of flaws, but it is also a way to solve the current problem.
"Okay, you go and send the report, and I'll go and boost the morale of the soldiers."
"yes!"
Francois immediately sent someone to send a report to Charles, saying that they had finally approached the enemy's position, but the enemy came with reinforcements and took their position back.
Jacques came to France and the Nguyen soldiers.
"The brave soldiers of France, the soldiers of the Ruan Dynasty, I saw them clearly in the telescope just now."
"Our First Army's attack caused heavy losses to the Tenglong Army on the opposite side."
"You almost took this position, but the Tenglong Army suddenly came with thousands of reinforcements, and they repelled your first wave of attacks."
Jacques brainwashed them, talked nonsense, and had a translator to translate for Ruan Jun.
Jacques himself almost believed it.
Ruan Chao and some French soldiers really believed it.
It turns out that the Tenglong Army on the opposite side is not invincible.
After the Nguyen Army and the French soldiers had lunch.
Prepare to attack again in the afternoon.
After Charles, who was far away in Lao Cai, received the content of Jacques's first telegram, he sent someone to send a message to the secret garrison at Baima Pass, asking them to give up the sneak attack on Baima Pass and go to reinforce Jacques.
As a result, the intelligence agent he sent out had not been gone for long.
Jacques and the others sent another message that the position would not be taken down for a while.
Charles felt that Jacques was playing tricks on him, but he couldn't provide any evidence.
He also sent someone to send information, and asked a group of surprise troops outside Baima Pass to continue waiting for the opportunity to make a sneak attack.
Charles was so angry that he wanted to cut off the telegraph line between him and Jacques.
Jacques and the others started a new round of attack.
The French soldiers finally appear.
Half a battalion of French soldiers and two battalions of Nguyen soldiers began to attack under the cover of a new round of shelling.
Cheng Punan was in the trench, watching the situation on the battlefield with firm and profound eyes. In the two rounds of attacks in the morning, they lost more than twenty brothers.
He looked at the Ruan army and the French army outside, who were preparing to attack, and shouted loudly: "Stick to your position! For the sake of the country, for our brothers and sisters!"
Other soldiers also shouted loudly: "Hold your position! For the country, for our brothers and sisters!"
The morale of the Tenglong Army rose instantly. They puffed up their chests one by one. Facing the charge of the Ruan Army and the French Army, they continued to hold on to their position with their lives.
Cheng Punan's marksmanship is the best in their group, and his gun is also equipped with a double scope.
He aimed his marksmanship at the commander of the Nguyen Army. Now because of the addition of the French army, the Nguyen Army was at the forefront of the attack, and their commander also came to the front.
Cheng Punan had spotted this person in front of him, but he had been hiding at the end and it was difficult to attack.
Now there is General French commanding the rear, and General French is another second lieutenant.
He hid well and it was difficult for Sung Punan to hit him.
Nguyen Army General Li Xiujun was hiding behind two of his cronies at this time.
Cheng Punan killed his guard on the right front with one shot.
When this person died, Li Xiujun was so frightened that he immediately hid behind another person.
Cheng Punan fired another shot.
The bodyguard in front of Ri Soo-jun was killed by Seong Punan again.
The two people in front of Li Xiujun were killed.
He was so frightened that he immediately fell down.
Then he called for help in Ruan Jun’s language.
None of his other cronies dared come near him.
Because several of Li Xiujun’s close friends have died, whoever is next to him will die, and whoever dares to go,
Cheng Punan pulled the gun bolt again. This time, his target was Li Xiujun, the commander of the Ruan army.
After taking aim, he pulled the trigger, and the sound of gunshots echoed across the battlefield. The commander of the Ruan Army, Li Xiujun, just got up, and then fell down. The Ruan Army, which had lost its commander, fell into chaos instantly.
The French army worked hard to control the Nguyen army from behind and prevent them from causing chaos.
The Tenglong Army took the opportunity to launch a counterattack. The horn sounded, and they jumped out of the trenches, holding light machine guns in their hands and charging together.
Other Tenglong Army soldiers kept aiming and pulling the triggers.
The shouts of the Tenglong Army, the screams of the Ruan Army, and the scolding of the French Army were intertwined together, forming a tragic symphony.
Soon, due to the complete defeat of the Nguyen army, the French army behind them was unable to control the battlefield situation.
The Tenglong Army rushed for a while and was bombarded by French artillery fire from behind.
The Tenglong Army retreated to the trenches and continued to hold on.
In this offensive and defensive battle, the Tenglong Army lost dozens of people, and the Ruan Army suffered the biggest loss. The Ruan Army may have lost six to seven hundred people in this attack, and the French Army also suffered hundreds of casualties.
