Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Just when the First Division blew down the wall of Dandong City and was about to attack the city, Captain Miyamoto Takeo who was stationed in Dandong City was a little panicked at this time.

"Bagaya Road, the four thousand Korean soldiers outside the city have been guarding for less than two hours?" Miyamoto Takeo heard the words of the messenger and smashed his fist on the table in front of him in anger.

When Ichiro Uesugi, the staff officer on the side, saw Miyamoto Takeo like this, he quickly stepped forward to persuade him.

"Your Excellency, Captain, now is not the time to talk about this. The top priority is to find a way to hold the line of defense and wait for the empire's tactical guidance." Uesugi Ichiro looked at Miyamoto Takeo and said in a deep voice.

"It's easy to say. We only have one regiment of troops now, and those Koreans can't count on them. How are we going to defend!"

"How can it be repaired! These cowardly Koreans cannot be called soldiers at all! I must report this matter to the base camp!" At this point, Miyamoto Takeo pounded the table in front of him again.

"Your Excellency, Captain, I think we still have a way! We can at least withstand it for a day!" Uesugi Ichiro looked at Miyamoto Takeo and said.

When Takeo Miyamoto heard what Ichiro Uesugi said, he immediately turned his head and looked at Ichiro Uesugi.

"What can I do? Uesugi-kun, please tell me quickly!"

"Your Excellency, Captain, we are in Dandong now. There are still many Daxia people in the city. We can ask the Koreans to come forward..."

Ichiro Uesugi didn't finish what he said, but Takeo Miyamoto already understood what he meant.

They did this kind of thing a lot in Goryeo and the four provinces outside the Pass.

To put it simply, it is to capture the local people, place them in front of the position, and use these people as human shields.

Although Miyamoto Takeo considered himself a soldier, an imperial soldier in the true sense.

In his philosophy, war is the duty of soldiers and civilians should not be involved.

However, in his philosophy, the interests of the empire are above all else. At this time, let alone the people of the enemy country, even the people of the empire need to be loyal to the empire.

Are there any contradictions?

People in Sakura Country have always been so conflicted.

On the one hand, it claims to be a civilized world, but on the other hand, it does things worse than animals.

On the one hand, they respect life and pray for a fish or a dog, but on the other hand, they pick up the butcher knife and point it at innocent people.

"Uesugi-kun, what you said makes sense, let's do what you want!"

"In addition, in order to prevent those Koreans from retreating without a fight, the heroic imperial warriors should supervise them!"

"Anyone who disobeys orders and retreats without authorization will be shot!"

"Hi!" Uesugi Ichiro replied immediately after hearing Miyamoto Takeo's words.

"Please rest assured, Captain, this time, I will personally supervise the battle!" Ichiro Uesugi bowed to Takeo Miyamoto again, and then exited Takeo Miyamoto's command post.

Not to mention these little Sakura took advantage of the fact that the first division had not yet entered the city, commanding the Goryeo soldiers to hunt down the Daxia people in Dandong City.

Let’s first talk about the first division that has advanced to the vicinity of the city wall.

At this time, the First Division had defeated half of the Korean brigade in Dandong City and was clearing the ruins from the gap in the city wall.

Since this section of the city wall was destroyed by running and bombing, a lot of wall rubble was accumulated at this gap.

The infantry had no problem climbing over these ruins.

But Lin Yi considered that with the virtue of those Sakura Country soldiers, they would definitely fight with him in the street.

After all, Dandong is too important as it is the only railway connection point between Goryeo and the Liaozhou Peninsula, which is controlled by the Sakura Kingdom.

If Dandong is abandoned, the Sakura Army on the Liaozhou Peninsula will not be able to receive supplies.

Therefore, these little Sakuras in the city must want to fight on their own in the streets to delay time.

And street fighting is indeed a method of combat that can even out the weapon gap between the offensive and defensive sides to the greatest extent.

However, such a fighting method may be a big trouble for other troops, but for the First Division, it is not too troublesome.

Because Lin Yi equipped the first division with Ehart EV/4 armored vehicles.

The front armor of this armored vehicle is enough to withstand the bullets in the hands of Sakura Country soldiers.

You know, in this era, there are no armored forces yet, so there are very few anti-armor weapons developed for armored forces.

At this stage, the only way to destroy these armored vehicles is to be directly hit by Sakura's artillery.

But the question is, will Lin Yi give them such an opportunity?

Lin Yi assigned these twenty Ehart EV/4 armored vehicles to twenty companies and asked them to serve as the accompanying infantry of these armored vehicles. Follow the armored vehicles and fight together.

This can also be regarded as preparation for the rapid formation of armored divisions in the future after tanks are available.

When the soldiers of the First Division finished clearing the ruins, the armored vehicles also drove to the gap.

Twenty companies cooperated with these armored vehicles and entered Dandong City as the vanguard.

Subsequently, a large number of infantrymen from the First Division quickly moved in to clear out the remaining enemies in the city.

These armored vehicles were cautiously tested at first, fearing that they would be ambushed by Sakura Country soldiers.

If in such an environment, an artillery piece is encountered around a corner, even an armored vehicle will not be able to withstand it.

In fact, tanks are more suitable for entering the city to clear out the remaining enemies. The armor is thicker when approaching, and the survival rate is definitely higher than that of armored vehicles.

But the premise is that tanks and armored vehicles will not be left alone. Otherwise, with the narrow viewing angle of armored vehicles and tanks, it is very easy to be attacked at close range.

As for these armored vehicles, after testing, they found that Sakura Country had nothing to do with these iron guys.

Moreover, after seeing the armored vehicles, the soldiers had a look of horror on their faces.

Although they don't know what this thing that can run is, it doesn't stop them from knowing that this thing is not something they can deal with.

The firearms in their hands hit the armored vehicle and had no effect except for sparks.

And those armored vehicles were just a shot at them, causing them heavy casualties.

Facing such a monster, whether it is a Sakura Kingdom soldier or a Goryeo soldier, there is only one thought left in their mind, and that is to run!

The soldiers of the First Division saw the enemy fleeing as soon as they made contact, and they became bold and began to pursue them.

It can be said that Daxia won this battle very easily.

At least for now, it seems that Daxia is winning.

Until one company met Ichiro Uesugi.

At this time, Uesugi Ichiro already knew that the Daxia Army had invested a new type of weapon in Dandong, a monster that could run away, but could not penetrate, and was equipped with a heavy machine gun.

Although Ichiro Uesugi was a little panicked, when he saw the people of Daxia whom he had captured, he felt confident again.

"Let the Goryeo soldiers push those Daxia people to the front of the position to block Daxia's attack!" Ichiro Uesugi immediately issued the order as soon as he saw the armored vehicle.
