Chapter 2489: Defensive Battle

Chapter 2782 Defense War

Li Wei looked at a group of people who were placing some broken glass in the base outside the city. There were basically very few weapons and ammunition in the city. Li Wei asked many people to break the windows in the city and began to place some broken glass in the base outside the city wall. .

Some nails were also taken out, bent randomly and scattered in some trenches. Many people still looked worried. Li Wei smoked a cigarette and looked at the soldiers who looked better.

After eating a meal, these soldiers felt a little more comfortable. Some of them also drank wine, and their psychological pressure was also reduced. They were about to face rebels who were at least five times their number and had sufficient weapons and ammunition. .

Moreover, these rebels were very powerful in combat, and some of the troops who had come for reinforcements were easily killed by them.

Li Wei looked at the few explosives, and then asked the soldiers to place the explosives near some buildings behind the city wall. Many explosives were placed directly in weak places on the inside of the house.

Once it explodes, it can cause a lot of damage. Many people are puzzled by Li Wei's approach. Li Wei knows very well that on the battlefield, you must not rely on the weapons in your hands, but must do everything you can to kill the enemy. .

After all, only survival is the most important thing. It seems that many people have forgotten this. Many of them joined the army because of the very generous rewards and remuneration promised by the superiors, and many people think that the rebels are just a bunch of rabble. .

It wasn't until they actually set foot on the battlefield that they discovered that their understanding of the rebels was too narrow, because many rebels were criminals or low-level workers who had enslaved many people.

Many people have long hated the higher-ups, and it would be extremely terrifying to unleash their full anger.

This army that came to protect the small town originally exceeded 10,000 people, but it was reduced by 70% in less than a month.

Ammunition also became less and less due to their crazy shooting and attacks, and the ammunition that was subsequently replenished began to become less and less.

"Can this really stop them?"

Commander Rocco asked. He had only achieved excellent results in military training operations before being promoted to commander. However, the actual combat during this period has completely subverted Roco's perception. Before he knew it, he encountered the biggest crisis since joining the army.

The current situation was extremely desperate for Rocco. He had been obeying the orders from his superiors and not retreating from his position on the mountains. But now Roco thought about it carefully. If he had been calmer, he would not have lost so many troops.

Because the troops were too exhausted and supplies were seriously insufficient, especially after entering the city tonight, Rocco was hopeless because the place had been abandoned.

Workers in the city are placing explosives that can be controlled from a distance. Li Wei has asked them to wait for the opportunity, light the explosives and then run away. Li Wei also made it very clear where they gathered.

It's in the residential area of ​​the city, where the houses are very crowded and the terrain is narrow, which is very conducive to defense.

Many soldiers only have a few dozen rounds of ammunition in their hands. This makes many soldiers feel insecure. Li Wei has told them that they must shoot again in the narrow alleys and streets of residential areas. The hit rate will be higher.

Only the congested western residential area of ​​the city has defensive significance, and some workers have placed supplies behind the western residential area.

What follows will be a battle of life and death. If they cannot win, they will definitely be killed by the rebels.

Li Wei exhaled a puff of smoke, smiled and said.

"If we can't stop it, we will all die."

Li Wei knew the current situation very well. It would be difficult for her to leave alone.

Time passed by, and it was already 5 o'clock in the morning. Li Wei began to set up behind the city wall, and designated several fire flanking points on the left and right sides.

Directly opposite the city gate, some teams were arranged to lure the enemy. There were not many people on the city wall, less than 100 people. They could escape along the city wall at any time after attacking.

And Li Wei has made it very clear that we must not wait for the enemy to come in and attack, but must create an illusion for the enemy, and they must run away as soon as the city gate is breached.

In this way, when the enemy pursues them and the soldiers behind some simple fortifications run away, they can pretend to retreat.

Rocco didn't quite believe what Li Wei said, because the tactical lessons in the classroom always appeared in his mind. When facing such a huge enemy, such an approach was simply hitting an egg with a stone, and the enemies were not fools.

"Listen clearly, if you want to survive, you must do what I say. I will command the people on the wall. Don't worry, as long as you do what I say, we will definitely win."

Soon everything was ready when the sky lit up. Li Wei leaned against the city wall, drinking hot soup and eating. She yawned happily. Many people around her looked nervous.

Because densely packed people were seen moving in the distance, the rebels had already pulled the cannon over, Li Wei smiled, and the people on the city wall dispersed and did not gather.

"If the enemy attacks with artillery fire later, we will take shelter in some rooms under the city wall."

The width and thickness of the city walls can completely withstand artillery fire. As long as they are not densely arranged on the city walls, they will not be hit by artillery fire.

Li Wei smiled easily, and everyone around her seemed a little scared. In just half an hour, the enemy advanced to the front base, only seven or eight hundred meters away from the city wall.

"You surrender immediately, otherwise once we attack, you will all die."

Looking at the increasingly dense enemies, Li Wei just smiled, and then signaled with her eyes, many people began to move, and after a few people showed their heads, they began to shoot at the opposite side.

Li Wei laughed, some of them couldn't wait, the cannon was pulled up, and Li Wei ran quickly.

Sure enough, in less than 5 minutes, the first shell fell on the city wall, accompanied by a deafening explosion, stones flying, Li Wei and a few people hid in a small room, although they could feel the vibration, but the room was very solid.

Li Wei also arranged obstacles and explosives on the stairs on both sides of the city wall. Even if they started to attack the enemy's subsequent troops entering the city, they would not be able to come up in a short time. They could buy time to go around the city wall to the west.

Shells whistled and exploded on the city wall, falling behind the city wall. Li Wei kept patting the dust on her body.

After a round of shelling, Li Wei soon heard shouts of killing. She looked out through the small hole for ventilation. Soon Li Wei laughed and lit a cigarette.

Many soldiers also noticed that the enemies who entered the front position screamed, and many people shouted in pain. The nails and glass placed everywhere last night played a role.

Soon the enemy's offensive came to an abrupt end, and Li Wei quickly took a whistle and blew it.

Many people left the room directly and quickly returned to the city wall. Looking at the enemy who was going to pave the road with wooden boards, they quickly started shooting.

Suddenly, there was a lot of gunfire. After a round of shooting, Li Wei blew the whistle, and everyone began to flee to the room inside the city wall again.

This time, Li Wei led the people to move, because a large number of shells had fallen where they were just now, and some rooms were penetrated. At this time, the enemy, under the cover of artillery fire, began to build a road with wooden boards, but the movement was very slow.

Gunshots continued to ring, and the enemy had approached the city wall. The people around him looked extremely scared, and Li Wei said with a smile.

"Don't worry, it's okay, I'll give them a big one later."

Sure enough, the enemy began to blast the city gate, accompanied by explosions again and again, and with a loud bang, the city gate collapsed.

Gunshots rang out, and many soldiers about 500 meters behind the city gate opened fire, but the enemy began to pour in in large numbers and began to fight back.

Li Wei showed an evil smile, she took the whistle and blew it, and the enemy had poured in in large numbers, chasing the people fleeing in front.

Li Wei held the gun, and just as she went out, she saw someone trying to clear the obstacles on the stairs, and pulled the trigger directly.

Suddenly, many people pulled the grenade and threw it directly, and some people began to shoot from a high position.

"Use all the ammunition and retreat."

Li Wei shouted, and hundreds of people pulled the trigger frantically. Sure enough, the enemies who entered the city began to flee everywhere, but with bursts of explosions, in just a few minutes, the enemies who entered the city were divided into two sections, and hundreds of enemies died.

Li Wei led people to look at the enemies below who were about to fight back, and just shouted for them to use up their ammunition.

The most common thing people on the wall took was grenades. The bulging backpacks were emptied one by one, but some people around them were still hit and died.

Li Wei grinned and looked at the people who were running away with their heads in their arms below, and then Li Wei blew the whistle.

"Retreat immediately."

As soon as the voice fell, the people on the wall began to evacuate to the left wall, and at this time the obstacles were blown up, and the enemies outside the wall also began to attack from the periphery. Soon someone rushed up the wall, and Li Wei smiled and walked past a place.

This place is not far from the corner of the city wall. Li Wei saw a red line with her sharp eyes. She lit a cigarette, then ran over, pulled the red rope, and watched the enemies rushing up the city wall in the distance. They started shooting and chasing.

Li Wei just smiled, pulled the red rope, and then quickly crouched and ran.

A few seconds later, accompanied by a shocking explosion, a section of the city wall collapsed directly, accompanied by violent screams, and many people were swallowed by the explosion.

Li Wei placed enough explosives in this place, just to cut off their way to the west along the city wall.

At this time, explosions continued to be heard in the city, and Li Wei laughed.

"The plan was successful."

Li Wei wiped the sweat off her face, and Rocco looked at the chaos in the city with a shocked face. Now Rocco has arranged people to set up defenses at several entrances to the west area, and they can't attack for a while.

After just half an hour, the enemy stopped attacking. They didn't even reach the center of the city. Li Wei looked at the wall on her left. Some enemies had already circled the northern wall and wanted to go around to the west, but it was obvious that the enemy didn't dare to get close.

"How is it? The enemy lost at least two thousand people."

Rocco nodded. Indeed, Rocco didn't expect it to be so easy, but he asked.

"What about the tens of thousands of people?"

Li Wei said leisurely.

"Can their food and drink be guaranteed all the time?"

Rocco immediately understood. Li Wei looked at the distance and said.

"I don't know how much supplies they brought, but I am sure that if they cross this mountain, the supplies will not be able to keep up in a short time, and the supplies in this city have been emptied by us, and they can't get anything."

Li Wei said, took out the telescope, stood on the city wall and observed for a while, then handed the telescope to Rocco beside him.

"Really, they are looking for food."

Li Wei laughed.

"That means their supplies are out of touch. Once their first attack fails, they will definitely take the initiative to withdraw from the city in the future."

Rocco had a smile on his face, because he really didn't expect to win such a victory so easily. Rocco felt that it was a fantasy to prepare hastily last night, but he did it because he really had no choice.

Rocco looked at Li Wei who was smoking on the side, and stretched out his hand excitedly. Li Wei just smiled.

"We still have about half of our weapons and ammunition. Tell all the soldiers that after the enemy enters the alley, they are not allowed to open fire without my order."

Li Wei knew very well that the first defensive operation later was critical. If they could kill a large number of enemies, their advantage would be established.

Sure enough, half an hour later, the enemy seemed to have checked that there were no explosives. They began to try to move closer to this side. Li Wei quickly returned to the entrance of a residential area facing a land. Nearly 300 people were arranged here, and the enemy also planned to break in from this place.

Because they had suffered from the narrow terrain before, now the enemy has learned to be smart.

Moreover, Li Wei found that many people looked very bad, and it seemed that they had no food to eat. Li Wei laughed, and the soldiers around her seemed extremely nervous.

Li Wei asked the soldiers to stay on the third to fifth floors of the house, not more than this floor, because the lethality at this distance is the strongest.

"Relax."

Rocco swallowed and touched the gun in his hand. Li Wei looked at many enemies coming from the house and still making tentative attacks.

"They are also human beings, they will get tired and hungry. Although they relied on the supplies from the previous position to replenish last night, they will also be tired after fighting for days."

Li Wei lit a cigarette. The enemy was less than 300 meters away from them, but Li Wei did not intend to order to shoot. Li Wei would only give the order when the enemy was 50 meters away from them.
