Chapter 86: A Small Win (2)
"Your Excellency the division commander, heavy machine guns and heavy machine gun companies were attacked, and the soldiers suffered heavy losses..." Hearing the sudden sound of gunfire behind him, a major battalion commander next to Vasily couldn't help but exclaim.
"I saw that the cunning bandits must have wanted to hold us here and prevent us from returning to the aid artillery and baggage company..." Major General Vasily, who had already stopped in the direction of the artillery, immediately spoke up and analyzed.
As soon as he finished speaking, the major interrogated: "Sir, the artillery and the baggage company are in danger, and the heavy machine gun company is attacked again... Should we immediately give up the heavy machine gun company and reinforce the artillery and baggage company?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a lieutenant officer hurried over and reported with a panic look on his face: "Secretary Commander, the enemy's firepower is too strong, and there are heavy machine guns... The heavy machine gun company has lost more than half of it. The enemy seems to want to steal these heavy machine guns. All the firepower is concentrated around the heavy machine gun company. The remaining soldiers of the heavy machine gun company will be knocked into a hornet's nest as soon as they approach the heavy machine gun company..."
"Machine gun... why is it a machine gun again? How come the bandits have so many machine guns, more than the machine guns equipped by the Imperial Army..." With the reminder of his subordinates, the angry Major General Vasily immediately identified the machine gun strafing sounds among the dense guns.
I don't know if I don't listen, I'm shocked...
Major General Vasily heard at least three machine guns from these gunshots.
Even though he was shocked, Vasily did not lose his mind because of this...
Although the bandits who attacked him were equipped with a lot of machine guns, their troops would definitely not be very strong.
Otherwise, they would never bypass the main force and directly attack the heavy machine gun company, preventing their heavy machine gun company from attacking.
At this time, the major battalion commander on the side reminded again: "Grand Commander, please make a decision as soon as possible. The gunfire in the direction of artillery and baggage company has stopped..."
Faced with the reminder of his subordinates, Major General Vasily immediately decided: "We cannot give up the heavy machine gun company... The bandits attacking the artillery also had heavy machine guns, and I don't know how many people there are. If we don't bring heavy machine guns, we may be at a disadvantage in firepower and are not the opponent of the bandits..."
"Although the bandits here are equipped with heavy machine guns, they are not many, and all their firepower is concentrated on the heavy machine guns. As long as we launch a counterattack from their flanks, we can immediately repel them..."
"Order: The 7th Company of the Third Battalion, immediately launch an attack from the enemy's flanks... The Eighth Company and the Ninth Company, the nearest to the Heavy Machine Gun Company, fire cover... The Heavy Machine Gun Company is ready to regain the Heavy Machine Gun. Once the bandits' firepower weakens or retreats, immediately regain the Heavy Machine Gun, counterattack the enemy, and eliminate them..."
Soon, an old Russian from a company lined up into a paratrooper line and appeared on the flank of the reconnaissance platoon.
With the frontal fire counterattack of more than 300 rifles from two Russians, the investigation company also began to suffer casualties.
"Baoba..." At this moment, the Russians on the flank also shot.
The gunshots sounded, and the infantry squad closest to them immediately lost seven or eight brothers, including a squad leader holding a Mauser pistol...
And this is just the beginning...
Because I had no troops or firepower to fight back against the Russians in the flank direction.
As they get closer and closer to the reconnaissance company, they can be said to be more arrogant as they fight.
In a blink of an eye, two squads were killed and killed in the investigation company.
If they add the casualties caused to themselves by their head-on counterattack, in just a few minutes, the reconnaissance company's weakness has exceeded one platoon, and it also includes many veterans and squad platoon leaders.
After seeing the battlefield situation, the reconnaissance company commander Zhang Shanlin had to make a decision to retreat. Otherwise, the entire reconnaissance company would explain it here.
"Teacher Commander, your counterattack has been effective. The enemy has retreated and dozens of them have been wiped out by us... The heavy machine gun company has snatched back all the heavy machine guns. The attacking troops asked for instructions on whether to pursue the enemy's deserters..." The major, who hurried back from the battlefield, reported with excitement...
He defeated the bandits' sneak attacks, and also killed and injured dozens of people on the other side.
This was a very happy thing, but Major General Vasily couldn't be happy at all.
Because I have been delaying more than ten minutes here.
So Vasily refused without thinking: "No, artillery and baggage companies are more important than these bandits... immediately shrink their troops and continue to reinforce artillery... Heavy machine gun company walked in the middle of the team to avoid being attacked again, and act immediately..."
In more than ten minutes, the guards were able to seize it several miles away from the battlefield.
Facing the battlefield where corpses were everywhere, artillery and supplies had long disappeared without a shadow, Major General Vasily, who had been holding his aggrievance and anger in his heart, was furious and angry.
Because, from the beginning of the battle to now, Vasily has clearly felt that he was fooled by his opponent.
Since the battle in Longgangling, I have been played with by bandits.
The purpose of the opponent doing this is to use his contempt for them to divide the troops and constantly divide the troops. The cunning opponent took this opportunity to defeat them one by one.
Of course, with the so-called defeats, Major General Vasily would not care at all if he only lost some of his troops.
There are two troops in the entire Anshan territory with garrison patterns obeying their own command.
No matter how much you lose, you can replenish it from the garrison troops.
However, artillery and baggage are different, especially artillery. After the loss, there is no way to replenish it at least in a short period of time.
As for the baggage, if it is lost, it means that the encirclement and suppression operation he personally commanded will be weak due to the lack of ammunition and will have to stop temporarily...
