On Position Three, Zhuge Yunxue is leading her team in outdoor combat for the first ti.
Working with her is Chen Fei, the commander of the Fiery Fla Special Forces, and Liu Chengjun, the commander of the armored units.
Additionally, there are so engineer units collaborating, currently rapidly constructing fortifications and setting up defensive positions.
Since Ye Fan has upgraded to army commander, a new authorization system has been implented.
Whether it’s the arms factory or the military supply warehouse, they can be authorized to underling commanders, allowing them to directly receive supplies within the system, eliminating the need for physical transport back and forth.
Ye Fan has already opened the permissions of the military supply warehouse to the engineer commander, so engineers can collect materials at any ti from Warehouse I.
This offers enormous benefits, sparing the engineers from transport work and significantly enhancing efficiency.
Over such a long period, the Dawn Army has amassed countless resources.
Before the apocalypse, these resources had to be spread among billions, but after the apocalypse, all resources only need to be used by a few billion people.
Hence, strategic resources like steel and minerals have been collected in astronomical quantities by Ye Fan’s side, not often needed in daily use.
And such a vast amount of resources, after entering the resource recycling station, are digitally stored within the military supply warehouse.
Now, it’s incredibly convenient to access them anyti.
Under the continuous construction by the engineers, many sturdy fortifications have been built.
For example, trenches, aside from so shooting positions, trenches are covered with steel plates.
Additionally, the bunkers are directly topped with iron sheets and reinforced with concrete columns, making them much more reliable against bombings than before.
Even the dical team has quietly settled in the bunkers, ready to provide treatnt at any ti.
The soldiers are ard to the teeth, but they’ve all gone into hiding at this mont because the enemy has started shelling.
Chu Yuan has invested a considerable amount of resources to capture Position Three.
On the surrounding positions, the Alliance Army, initially in a passive state, are compelled by Chu Yuan’s command to brace themselves for a counterattack.
And the strength of the counterattack cannot be too weak; if they do not achieve significant results, at least within two hours, the Dawn Army’s other units should not support Position Three.
The other units are already at a disadvantage, and taking the initiative to attack would result in greater losses; however, Chu Yuan is indifferent to this.
As long as they can capture Position Three, any sacrifice is worthwhile.
When the brother units began their offensive, Jiangzhou’s artillery opened fire.
Over a thousand cannons bombarded Position Three from various angles.
The booming explosions seed to want to flatten Position Three.
In the distant sky, Jiangzhou’s electronic reconnaissance aircraft and nurous warplanes continued to fly over.
They haven’t joined the combat but are intimidating the Dawn Army’s air force to prevent them from rashly entering.
The situation seems like a tacit agreent; whoever’s navy or air force strikes first indicates the situation is beyond salvage.
Over the Celestial River, Jiangzhou’s cruisers and frigates, all missile defense systems are on standby, and those long-range missiles are ready at all tis.
No chance for the Dawn Army to surprise, ensuring the victory of the ground troops!
......
Dawn Island Television is broadcasting the battle for Position Three live.
This result was fiercely pursued by the television station because the nation is concerned about this fight.
A journalist from the television station settled in, carrying nurous drone filming equipnt.
Because this ti neither air force is involved, all electronic combat devices haven’t appeared, enabling smooth shooting.
.....
"Boom boom boom~~~!"
The television image shakes.
The journalist hides with the caraman in a certain bunker for live reporting; viewers watching TV see the ground shaking.
"Dear viewers! Here is Dawn Island Television, I am reporter Ye Luo."
Ye Luo seized the opportunity for this live broadcast, Ye Fan didn’t expect she would sneak over, and there’s no way to have her return now.
"Now above , Jiangzhou is continuously shelling, as I hide inside the mountain belly, I can barely stand; you can see continuous soil falling above ."
"We also use the drone’s cara to feel the density of the enemy’s artillery bombardnt."
Soon the image switches to the drone, giving viewers another kind of shock.
On the mountain ridge, explosions of fire are everywhere; there’s no good spot on the entire ridge; everything is within the bombing range of the enemy.
This bombardnt lasted a full thirty minutes.
Within thirty minutes, the artillery noise never ceased nor weakened.
People watching the continuous explosions in the image turned pale.
With such a bombing thod, even the ants on the mountain can’t survive.
The people on Dawn Island watch TV without speaking.
This battle has continued to this day, and both sides have reached a point where it’s life or death.
The importance of Position Three, many people have co to understand.
This will be a turning point in this war; whoever wins this battle will take the initiative in this war.
But with this artillery fire, can the Dawn Army withstand it?
Those who haven’t experienced war watch this kind of image, their minds are shaken, and their rationality collapses.
Especially when the shelling ended, as Jiangzhou’s troops pressed forward.
A large number of tanks and armored vehicles, shielding the advancing infantry, started their bold charge.
In the live broadcast footage, countless bullets streak through the air, and the tanks occasionally fire.
Everyone believes they will witness a tough and distinguished battle, just like a scene from a movie.
The defending side is usually the good guys, facing throngs of enemies, fighting with their lives despite hunger and insufficient clothing, battling through artillery fire while contending with issues like food and climate.
So even willingly sacrifice for victory, moving the viewers to tears.
Yet, as the battle unfolds, they realize it’s not quite as expected.
The Dawn Army’s counterattack is extrely sharp; when the enemy advances, they decisively fire back.
Ye Luo places the cara directly atop a sniper’s head, capturing the battle through the sniper’s perspective.
This sniper is indeed ruthless, shooting once or twice before changing positions, as each bullet flies out, the enemies fall one by one!
Moreover, in the live stream, enemies drop in droves, not only felled by this sniper but also by his companions.
Those tanks move forward a bit before suddenly being blasted apart, turrets are flipped over, and the chassis ignites and explodes tragically.
Seeing the enemy fall like cut grass, and tanks and armored vehicles break like toys, leaves the viewers dumbstruck.
Where is the grueling battle they expected? Why does it seem so effortless?
Did the recent bombardnt have no impact on the Dawn Army? How is their counterattack so sharp?
Not only do the viewers fail to understand, but even Chu Yuan finds it perplexing.
The Dawn Army is more than difficult to overco; they are utterly impenetrable.
Whenever his troops advance, they imdiately encounter lethal strikes.
Each soldier seems to be a sharpshooter, which he thought only appeared in lyrics, yet today it’s happening on the battlefield.
His soldiers almost lose their lives as soon as they expose themselves; a regint of over two thousand charges up the hill, and before reaching near the enemy’s position, only seven or eight hundred remain alive.
How is such a battle to be fought?
The intense bombardnt, was it all for nothing?
Chu Yuan refuses to believe and continues deploying his troops, determined to seize position three at all costs.
......
Zhuge Yunxue holds her scout’s assault rifle, finding almost no opportunity to use it.
Whether part of her Guard Corps or the Fiery Fla Special Forces, all mbers are the elite among elites.
Any of them possess shooting skills comparable to past world shooting champions.
And they’re champions of both static and dynamic targets.
She can see that the Jiangzhou forces are elite too, but it’s of no use.
Just this small hillside, the enemy must stack lives to storm it.
......
"Dee dee dee dee dee dee~~~~!"
The bugle for the charge blows and then stops; such morale-boosting tactics are useless now.
Five tis in a row...
After five charges, the corpses left on the hillside by the Alliance Army have already exceeded twenty thousand!
Including the wounded, the two divisions have already lost over half.
These are two elite ace divisions, yet they’ve lost more than half without achieving any aningful results.
Chu Yuan stares at reports pleading for retreat, feeling bleeding inside.
The battle has been raging for an hour, yet he sees no fatigue in the Dawn Army; whenever his troops charge, they erge to counter from all directions.
The fierce bombardnt seems to have little effect.
anwhile, other units, sacrificing to cover the advance of their ace divisions, have already lost over fifty thousand!
Leaders of several base cities have started to complain, and Liu Jingyan even directly questions Chu Yuan, why not deploy the air force or naval aircraft?
Against an entrenched position turned into a hedgehog by the Dawn Army, bombard the hill ten ters below to see if the people inside can survive.
Chu Yuan realizes the vast gap in combat power between both sides at this point.
If this continues, there will be no survivors left in the two ace divisions.
The commanders leading the attack on two divisions are near tears, the hopelessness of a forced assault drives them to thoughts of suicide on the spot.
"Young Marshal! Please leave so seed for our division, or we’ll be disbanded."
"Sa here, Young Marshal, the soldiers are unwilling to fight anymore; they simply can’t beat the Dawn Army. If ordered to die, I fear they’ll revolt."
Listening to the reports from the commanders, Chu Yuan feels an extre sadness in his heart.
Over sixty thousand elite soldiers, yet they can’t conquer a position defended by eight thousand, a result he cannot accept.
But there’s no solution at hand; he’s caught in a predicant, failing to seize position three could lead to even greater losses if they retreat and the Dawn Army pursues.
Chu Yuan considers for a while and finally decides.
"Air Force First Brigade, take off! Naval aircraft, take off for full bombardnt on Dawn Army’s position!"
Originally deployed to counter the Dawn Army’s air and naval forces, they are finally sent into action.
There’s so distance between Celestial River and this position, leaving their defense vulnerable when the aircraft carrier jets move over, weakening the Tianjiang Fleet’s defense a bit.
But Chu Yuan believes, with so many cruisers and frigates, it shouldn’t be a big problem.
Just as Jiangzhou Navy deploys over a hundred carrier jets to bomb position three, Ye Fan takes action.
Now is Jiangzhou Navy’s most vulnerable mont in defense; a long-awaited opportunity has arrived for Ye Fan!
