Chapter 104 Blood-stained mountains and rivers 6
Zhang Xuewu was not surprised that the Japanese army chose the attack time at dusk, because the fierce light weapon firepower of the defenders had made me hit the south wall fiercely.
Destroying the enemy's will to resist with fierce artillery fire, Zhang Xuewu admitted that this tactic was quite effective. Whether during the Anti-Japanese War or during the later period of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, many wars proved that as long as there were enough artillery strikes to kill more than 30% of the enemy, then the enemy's resistance The will to resist will be reduced and weakened, and even collapse and give up the position.
It can't be said that there are no cases, but after all, those who can only be a few special beings, even a few people who are not flesh and blood, are not soldiers made of steel. Meaningless advocacy is a kind of irresponsibility and the greatest disresponsibility for the bleeding and sacrifice of soldiers.
In the war, the most people were killed by the ordinary people, and the children of the ordinary people who joined the army and participated in the war. However, in the face of the Dongying Japanese pirates who were immortal, it was these ordinary people who paid heavy taxes, who could not eat and were not be clothed with flesh and blood. The nation is in danger of the Great Wall of flesh and blood in the stormy waves.
Boom! A grenade exploded near the railway line no more than four or five hundred meters away from the command. The huge shock wave would instantly break all the glass of the girls' middle school. Zhang Xuewu, who had tinnitus, looked at the blood flowing from the wound cut by glass fragments behind him, and his heart tightened! The artillery of the Japanese army seems to have begun to extend?
Zhao Xinyu waved Browning's horse card and shouted, "Order all troops to enter the position!"
Under the sound of sharp whistles, the Chinese soldiers dragged the Maxine heavy machine gun from the bunker to the machine gun position, and the troops began to enter the position along the traffic trenches.
"How long has the military heavy artillery been extended?" Facing Zhang Xuewu's inquiry, Li Xinkai was slightly stunned. He looked at his watch and said, "Eleven minutes!"
Zhang Xuewu glanced at the direction of the side ridge of Majiagou and said eagerly, "Order Zhao Xinyu to withdraw the troops immediately!" Hurry up!"
"Ah?" Li Xinkai was stunned. He couldn't understand Zhang Xuewu's intention? Zhang Xuewu obviously had no time to explain anything to him. He pulled Li Xinkai away with his hand. As soon as he picked up the phone, he heard the rumble of gunfire in the direction of the side ridge of Majiagou. The phone in Zhang Xuewu's hand suddenly slipped to the ground.
After quickly walking around the sand table for a few laps, in the deafening explosion, Zhang Xuewu said resolutely: "Order the first battalion of the reserve team to go to the front line of the side ridge of Majiagou for reinforcements, and Li Xinkai, the chief of staff of the division, was in charge of the battle!"
Zhang Xuewu took a deep breath and said to Li Xin, "You can't be impatient after going up. This is my negligence. I can't blame you. Let Zhao Xinyu sit firmly. Xiao Niang was supposed to fight. In addition, he sent a few groups out at night to touch a few Japanese tongues for me. I want to know which unit the opposite Japanese army is, and the commander is Who! Do you understand?"
Li Xin nodded, put on a helmet and led the guard platoon to the side ridge of Majiagou immediately. The official tactical term of the army's surprise attack is double artillery double artillery promotion and suppression. As the name implies, first of all, use artillery to strike the enemy, relax the reinforcement of the enemy, destroy its fortification defense system, and attack the enemy's The morale, and then the artillery is extended, giving the enemy an illusion that the infantry will attack, and then with a fierce artillery attack, a large number of the living forces that kill and injure the enemy are destroyed.
This tactic is simply not worth mentioning in later generations. This tactic first created and used by the Americans in the Battle of the Marne in World War I can only be aimed at the technical arms to suppress firepower and support the party with sufficient, that is to say, it is a so-called rich tactic.
Compared with military strength and firepower, Zhang Xuewu's new first division is absolutely first-class troops in terms of training, civil engineering operations, light firepower distribution, and morale. However, in terms of technical arms, Zhang Xuewu only has 75mm mountain cannons, and there is no more than 100mm howitzer. Don't talk about the 150mm field heavy howitzer.
So Zhang Xuewu can't afford this tactic! However, Zhang Xuewu thinks that he can't afford to play several times. In that country where men can't even wear pants, how many shells can they carry with their transportation capacity? Can Chengde City be wiped out of the earth?
If the attack is the U.S. military, Zhang Xuewu will launch a decisive assault to the last soldier at this moment, because there are so many American shells to bomb Chengde on Mars, and he said that he can't. They don't have that wealth. Sure enough, the army's artillery will extend again ten minutes later.
Even if there is only ten minutes of fierce shelling, the first and second lines of defense on the side of the side of Majiagou are in a mess. The Maxine heavy machine gun, which almost turned into parts, was blown into small pieces of machine gunners, and the soldiers who were shocked to death in the firing hole. After the rest, the fortifications were completely completely penetrated by the second shelling of the army. The bottom was destroyed, and the corpses that were piled into the fortifications were blown up again. This time, they were all broken into small pieces that could not be put together.
Is this the power of heavy artillery? The survived Chinese officers and soldiers looked at each other in front of each other. To be honest, the artillery shelling of the Japanese army was also very fierce, but the brave veterans still dared to stare at the artillery fire to shoot their own cold guns, but this time it was different. A crater was at least four or five meters in size, which could blow up the hard frozen soil into a large pit at the bottom of a pot with a depth of more than meters. When people step on it, they will be loosened to the ankles.
The remaining Chinese officers and soldiers supported each other and shouted for defense, but the Japanese infantry still did not launch an attack, and the heavy artillery of the Japanese army did not carry out the earth-shaking shelling!
Muljiagou side ridge! Monk Guanfeng was systematically shelled by the Japanese army! Zhang Xuewu drew two arrows on the map with a pen. Is it possible that the army is ready to attack two support points at the same time? Or attack three support points at the same time? The Japanese military commander who can plan to use double artillery to push and suppress is not an idle person? Is it said that my interior is not an iron plate? Or are they also suspicious of each other in order to win the battle?
It must be like this. Zhang Xuewu breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that the Japanese army's attack would definitely be around four o'clock in the morning, because it was the most tired and sleepy time for the human body's biological clock, and it was the most suitable time for the Japanese army to attack, so the army was destined to be extremely relaxed in the first half of the night.
The Japanese army attacked two or three support points at the same time, which made Zhang Xuewu relieved, because doing so was equivalent to dispersing their attack power and persistence. The garrison's infantry light weapon firepower had an absolute advantage. Once the Japanese army's attack approached the garrison's position, the Japanese army's heavy artillery could hardly play a role. Moreover, the management life of a heavy gun is only 210 rounds. If it is to launch a full charge, the life expectancy will be reduced. Therefore, according to the life of the Japanese army's gun barrel, coupled with the Japanese army's logistics supply method and the road from Jinzhou to Chaoyang and Chengde, it is difficult to infer that the Japanese army is carried by a heavy artillery alliance and brigade. Amount of ammunition.
Seng Guanfeng's direction is to use double artillery to push and suppress tactics, and the main peak and two wings of Monk Guanfeng can only have up to three companies at a time, so the casualties of Wang Chuang's second regiment are not large.
Zhang Xuewu immediately ordered all the officers and soldiers to rest immediately and enter the position at 3 a.m. for defense and alert. If the Japanese army attacks, the Japanese army can only fire if it is put the Japanese army in 50 meters!
