Chapter 854 Battle of Death Valley (4) (For Lao Qi 22/40)
"What the hell! We can't keep fighting like this. There's something wrong with fighting like this~"
With a solemn expression on his face, Hu Biao cursed like this.
Although today's battlefield is full of fierce gunfire and gunfire, Hu Biao cannot hear the shouts of "You can't fight like this" from the mouths of AT, Xu Feng, Warehouse Guan, Lao Qi and others.
.
But based on the actual situation on the battlefield, Hu Biao also saw this.
In the past, Hu Biao was the commander of the Zhongzhou team, because if he died, the entire team would be wiped out.
Therefore, in this battle, Hu Biao wisely did not continue to rush forward to fight the tank.
Instead, he stayed more than two hundred meters away from the turtle formation of the Royal Heavy Tank Battalion.
He replaced the Type 50 submachine gun with limited range in his hand with a Czech light machine gun. The twin Bren light machine gun kept firing at the position.
Back and forth, he managed to kill seven or eight opponents.
But as he continued to fight, Hu Biao cursed at the beginning.
The reason why Hu Biao had such a realization was that he synthesized the situation on the entire battlefield and found that the current situation was like this:
In general, the volunteers, as the attackers, still occupy the initiative and advantage on the battlefield.
Multiple anti-tank groups of the Zhongzhou Team, combined with some volunteer soldiers, took the initiative to attack under the cover of firepower from other personnel, and continuously destroyed the opponent's Centurion tanks.
As long as there is enough time, the first phase of the mission can be completed with acceptable casualties.
But the problem is that it can't destroy the tank fast enough.
And as the Yin troops in the formation gradually calmed down from the panic, the coordination between the infantry and tanks became better and better, and the firepower network formed became more and more fierce.
As a result, multiple anti-tank groups formed by the Central Continent Team and the Volunteer Army, although they had paid a considerable price, found that the remaining tanks were becoming more and more difficult to destroy.
But in the next time, how to change the tactics and what kind of tactics it will be?
Hu Biao had a headache for a while and didn't know how to get better.
And just when Hu Biao was worried, an even worse situation happened: a few kilometers behind him, on the 159.3 highland that Hu Biao and the others had previously captured, there was suddenly some new movement.
Suddenly there was a series of loud explosions over there, and the faint sound of gunshots reached his ears.
He turned around and took a look with the telescope. Although the distance between the two places was quite far, Hu Biao could still see fires of various sizes rising from highland 159.3.
Suddenly, there was a heavy 'thump' in this guy's heart.
As a veteran of many battles, Hu Biao could now tell the type of firepower of his opponent just by relying on the light of fire and the sound of explosions.
Now he could tell based on the firelight on Highland 159.3 that there were different types of aerial bombs weighing 250 kilograms, 100 kilograms, etc., and napalm bombs.
There must be at least a dozen planes circling in the sky to relay bombs, which is why they have such a frequency.
In addition to the planes in the sky, those smaller fires represented at least a dozen or twenty 105mm howitzers, which also joined the attack on the hilltop.
All the above situations illustrate one point:
The rescue force of the Royal Heavy Tank Battalion may have been operating in the surrounding area; so now it not only arrives very quickly, but is also very powerful in terms of firepower and strength.
In addition, there are even more than a dozen aircraft providing ground support.
Then the question arises, with the strength of a company of volunteers, how long can they persist under such a brutal attack?
Is it enough to persist until they use their current tactics to eat up this royal heavy tank battalion bit by bit?
Regarding this point, Hu Biao expressed some considerable doubts.
It's not that he doesn't believe in the fighting power of the volunteers and their quality of fighting to the last man in order to complete the mission.
But after systematic adjustments, God knows how much these reinforcements have been strengthened privately, and everything is different from the original timeline.
So the volunteers who were originally able to successfully defend Highland 159.3 now seem to be in danger...
****
The problem that gave Hu Biao a headache was finally solved in a way that he did not expect; but frankly speaking, in such a way, Hu Biao actually did not want to see it at all.
At that time, Hu Biao was frowning and thinking, but there was no good solution.
Suddenly, a group of figures moved towards this side.
When Hu Biao saw it, he saw that it was the second battalion commander of the 446th Regiment, the first battalion commander and instructor of the 445th Regiment, their second company commander, and more than twenty volunteer soldiers approaching.
One of them, a volunteer soldier in his thirties, had just chatted with Hu Biao when he was laying mines.
I know that this is the battle hero Comrade Li Guanglu who blew up three enemy tanks by himself during the battle in Death Valley in the original timeline.
After these people got closer, without waiting for Hu Biao to say anything, the second company commander said:
"Hu Bi, you still have two brushes to fight, and you are really good at fighting. The number of casualties among the soldiers in this fight is much smaller than what we expected, but we cannot continue to fight like this.
If we have enough time, we can eat them bit by bit like this.
But the movement on the 159.3 Highland is so loud, the comrades responsible for blocking must be under great pressure, and they probably won’t be able to withstand it for much longer; so everyone needs to let go of their hands and rush up now to solve these iron problems as soon as possible.”
Upon hearing this, Hu Biao almost exploded.
He pointed at some Centurion heavy tanks with a rather special shape on the opposite position, and shouted eagerly; because he was so excited, even his voice was stuttering:
"Look, look clearly, that tank that hasn't fired its gun doesn't have a broken gun barrel.
This is something you have never seen before. It is a fire-breathing model of the Centurion tank. They can spit out flames of 50 to 80 meters long, and the range is quite amazing. As long as it is contaminated, the iron man will be burned for you.
molten iron.
If you charge forward rashly like this, your comrades will suffer huge losses. I, I don't agree with such tactics."
Faced with Hu Biao's objections, several officers of the Volunteer Army had not said anything. As an ordinary soldier, Li Guanglu had already said with a smile:
"Brother Hu, we thank you for your concern, but how can there be no death in a war?
I don’t know how many comrades who have gone bald and sacrificed their lives in these years to fight the Japanese. Aren’t they afraid of death? They are all flesh and blood raised by their parents. How can anyone be unafraid?
Just to let future generations of dolls live a good life and live like human beings.
We are not like us in the past, being ridden by these Japanese and Western devils and their lackeys. If we can go to school well at home and farm with peace of mind, then we will die.
As long as the kids in the back don't have to suffer this kind of punishment."
As he said these words, Hu Biao saw Li Guanglu making an astonishing move while he was busy.
He used a bayonet to cut off a long section of the long fuse from the explosive bag he held in his left hand, and then reconnected it.
As a result, the explosive package that originally had ten seconds to explode will now probably explode directly in only two seconds at most.
In this way, this explosive package will naturally become more deadly.
Unfortunately, it is also quite deadly to those tanks and themselves.
Hu Biao couldn't help but fall silent in response to Li Guanglu's words and actions; after experiencing so many missions, he actually understood the truths of "one general can make a thousand bones dry" and "war is not a game".
But maybe he was born a loser, and even after he understood the truth, he still couldn't do it in many cases.
Especially the inability to do so, watching these cutest people die in battle when they could have survived; but now, what can he do?
For a moment, Hu Biao felt quite powerless.
So I could only see helplessly that such a tactic was quickly implemented.
During this period, the Second Company Commander patted Hu Biao on the shoulder and said solemnly: "Kid, remember this carefully. If I die in battle later, you will be in charge of the Second Company."
Battalion Commander Yang and instructors from the 2nd Battalion of the 446th Regiment loudly encouraged the soldiers:
"Comrades, knock out one tank and you will be a small merit, knock out two tanks and you will be a big merit, knock out three tanks and you will be a hero, kill these foreign sons of bitches~"
Under such a slogan, the originally high morale of the volunteer soldiers who were doing the final preparations suddenly became even higher.
To be honest! If it is before participating in system tasks.
Hu Biao saw such a scene in front of him. Some people were willing to risk their lives for some empty slogans. Hu Biao would feel that it was false.
Maybe he even wanted to laugh a little bit.
But after experiencing everything in the mission and feeling such a big era, Hu Biao actually understood...
