Rebirth of South America as King

Chapter 86: Offensive defeat

Pu Hui and Liu Pu's Chinese army and Chinese independent army repaired for one day, and launched a tentative attack on La Paz the next day.

The city of La Paz is located on an altitude of 3640 meters above sea level. El Alto, not far from La Paz, is a satellite city of La Paz. El Alto offers a bird's eye view of the entire city of La Paz.

El Alto is an important stronghold for La Paz. After the order of Melgarejo, Palivian added troops to strengthen the defense of El Alto. Before the Chinese Independence Army began to attack, El Alto Tor ’s garrison soldiers numbered 5,000, only 3,000 fewer than the garrison in La Paz.

下 Below the city of El Alto, the Bolivian garrison set up three lines of defense on the mountainside, preparing to use the rugged terrain of the Real Mountains to block the attack of the Chinese Independent Army.

The first line of defense was 400 meters from the front of the Chinese position under the mountain. The Bolivians placed about 500 soldiers on this line.

The Real Mountain range is steep and long. The excessively high elevation angle is not conducive to attacking the position on the mountain with heavy artillery. The Chinese Independent Army can only command soldiers to climb to attack if they want to attack the enemy's line of defense.

Below Laoshan, a row of more than 700 Chinese soldiers was ready. Under the leadership of the team officers, they dispersed to launch an attack on the mountain.

When the Chinese soldiers held the shield close to a distance of 100 meters from the first line of defense, the Bolivian garrison began to use small artillery to attack and fired from top to bottom. The roaring shells kept ringing beside the Chinese soldiers. Five or six Chinese soldiers were unfortunate. He was hit by a shell and died in the first round of attack.

He led the team leader behind a stone, and ordered his soldiers to find cover separately. After the round of shelling was over, the Chinese soldiers continued to climb upward.

The Chinese soldiers who attacked were equipped with Dresser rifles with a range of 600 meters, but at a distance of 100 meters, the shooting accuracy was very poor, so the Chinese soldiers did not return fire with their rifles in the face of the artillery attacks of Bolivian soldiers.

The overall quality of Bolivian soldiers is not as good as that of the Peruvian army, and even less than that of the Chinese Independent Army soldiers. After a round of shelling, the Bolivian soldiers saw the Chinese soldiers who had not repelled the attack, so they continued to shell.

It took a certain time interval for the puppet artillery to launch ammunition. The continuous shelling caused the gun body to overheat, four artillery bombs successively blasted, and injured a dozen Bolivian soldiers next to the artillery.

四 Four successive artillery bombardments and the overheating of the gun body forced the Bolivian defensive forces to stop the shelling. At this time, the Chinese troops advanced nearly 50 meters, more than 50 meters away from the Bolivian position.

The attacking Chinese soldiers encountered a problem at this time. The mountain road in front suddenly broke off, and a steep mountain **** close to two meters was blocked between the Chinese soldiers and the Bolivian army.

There was no way to go on either side. The leader of the team led his teeth and sent a dozen soldiers to climb upwards. As a result, the Chinese soldiers were intensively fired by Bolivian soldiers as soon as they climbed the steep slope. Thirteen soldiers climbed up and killed eight. When the other five soldiers saw that the situation was wrong, they jumped in time and did not end up like them.

"Head of the regiment, it's flat and there is no cover to cover it. As soon as the brothers show their heads, they become the living targets of the Bolivians." The Chinese soldiers who jumped down reported.

After listening to the report of the soldiers, the head of the Chinese team observed the top terrain from the side and said, "Brothers, the top terrain is wide. As long as we cross this steep slope, we can kill the enemy. Everyone will work hard and wait until the enemy positions are occupied. I Thanks again for your brothers. "

The enemy's line of defense is close at hand, and the leading officers do not want to give up the opportunity in exchange for the death and injury of more than thirty Chinese soldiers, encouraging them.

明 Li Mingyuan and a group of senior members of the Chinese Independence Army watched the battle from below. The attacking Chinese soldiers did not want to humiliate the army and continued to attack aggressively.

Steep slopes are difficult to climb, and soldiers are climbing up like a soldier just now. Not only is it easy to cause huge casualties, but it is also difficult to capture enemy positions. Therefore, with the advice of the staff, the team officer led the felling of the small trees on the mountain to form a simple slope. Board, then step on the inclined board and attack forward.

With the help of inclined wooden boards, the Chinese soldiers quickly climbed up the steep slope, and they were facing the shooting of Bolivian soldiers. The Chinese soldiers continued to climb the steep slope. Within a few minutes, the Chinese soldiers on the steep **** reached more than 100 people. Machine gun platoons purchased positions on the spot to cover the soldiers' attack.

He led the officers on the steep **** and gave a loud command.

Twenty five machine guns were quickly placed on the ground. Two soldiers next to each machine gun placed ammunition, and one machine gunner aimed and prepared to fire.

"Daddy," five gatling machine guns fired five lines of fire, and the ammunition shell fell to the ground, making a jingling sound.

Twenty-five machine guns limited the Bolivian firepower,

The advancing Chinese soldiers advanced to a distance of 20 meters from the Bolivian position. A Chinese soldier "banged" and threw a grenade around his waist to solve the three Bolivian soldiers.

Close combat, the advantages of the Chinese Independent Army soldiers appeared, grenades and bayonet continuously harvested the lives of Bolivian soldiers. Finally, the Bolivian defense line was disintegrated, and many Bolivian soldiers ran out of the position and ran towards the mountains.

The Chinese officer who led the team divided half of the soldiers to besiege the Bolivian soldiers in the defense line, and personally led more than 300 Chinese soldiers to chase the escaped Bolivian soldiers, trying to break the Bolivian second line of defense in one fell swoop.

There were more than a hundred Bolivian soldiers who fled. Under the pursuit of Chinese soldiers, they desperately ran towards the second line of defense set by their side.

After chasing a distance of 200 meters, most of the Bolivian soldiers who fled were killed, and more than 30 soldiers were still trying to run forward ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ The Chinese officers led by the team were too fast and had already reached The forefront of the pursuit of the soldiers was only over thirty meters from the Bolivian deserters.

The leading officer shot and shot a Bolivian soldier. At this moment, there was a snoring sound of shells firing in his ears. I didn't think much about it. The Chinese officer leading the team quickly fell to the ground, and then a shell fell less than a distance from him. Five meters away.

With the landing of the first shell, dozens of shells landed in the team chasing Chinese soldiers within one minute, and more than 500 muskets fired from behind the megalithic bunker.

The smoke of the artillery shell shrouded around the Chinese soldiers, and the Chinese soldiers who were pursuing them were killed in a hurry. Many Chinese soldiers who were fast-tracking were directly hit by the ammunition and fell to the ground.

"Back, all back."

He realized that he was in the ambush of the Bolivians, and led the Chinese officers, regardless of safety, and stood up and shouted.

The Chinese officer who led the team was at the forefront of the Bolivian shooting. He got up and shouted that he had attracted a large number of Bolivian bullets. As a result, he had more than a dozen bullets and became the highest military officer who had died since the Chinese Independent Army uprising.

I witnessed the death of the Supreme Commander. Many Chinese soldiers tried to **** the corpse of the sergeant forward, but not only failed to rob the corpse, they lost their lives.

The situation was severe. After the leader of the Chinese team was killed, a battalion commander of the chasing unit took over the command of the unit and painfully issued an evacuation order.

In the ambush in front of the second line of defense, more than 300 Chinese soldiers only withdrew more than 80 people. Even the head of the group, more than 240 Chinese soldiers remained in front of the position, except for a small number of captives. The vast majority of Chinese soldiers died on the spot, and this battle became the first defeat of the Chinese Independent Army.
