Chapter 93: In war, the battle is all about brains

Watergate Bridge, when the 1st Marine Division started to go to Changjin Lake, the U.S. military deployed defenses at Watergate Bridge. However, the number of enemies stationed on the Watergate Bridge was not large at that time. After all, the 1st Marine Division did not expect that it would happen in such a short period of time.

Within a short period of time, they were defeated and retreated south towards Xingnan.

Later, the Watergate Bridge was blown up twice by volunteer soldiers. After the second time, US military engineers drove engineering vehicles to repair the Watergate Bridge, leaving a tank battalion to garrison the Watergate Bridge.

Including the original assistant troops, the U.S. military's defense on the Watergate Bridge has reached a reinforced tank battalion with more than 70 tanks and more than 700 personnel. Of course, this includes all logistics personnel and combat personnel, including engineers.

.

Xia Yuan went to draw up the US military's defense plan, but he did not bring many soldiers with him, only Wu Wenxiang.

The two of them didn't even have time to eat. After checking their weapons and ammunition, they set off. They walked through the scorched earth, looking for a vantage point from which they could observe the American troops on the Watergate Bridge.

Soon, Xia Yuan found a favorable position on a hillside. It was not easy to be discovered and he could see the entire defense situation of Shuimen Bridge in a panoramic view.

Wu Wenxiang touched his head, looked into the distance and said, "Xia Yuan, can you see this position?"

While observing, Xia Yuan said: "My eyesight is very good and I can see very clearly. I will draw up the defensive map first."

The outline of the defense map is relatively simple. Xia Yuan is not professional in this aspect. He can only draw the bridge body and the US military's firepower points in detail according to the painting style of his previous life. This painting style will be more famous in the future.

The realistic style is different from the overhead painting style.

Thanks also to the drawing of U.S. military defense plans in Xinxingli, my experience in this area has improved a lot, and I seem to be able to draw with ease.

It's just that the effect of the painting is still a bit terrible.

In terms of skills, three new skills have been opened in the past few days.

[Entry-level painting (141/1000), entry-level cooking (52/1000), entry-level medical (13/1000)]

Other skills have been improved to varying degrees.

Xia Yuan stared at Shuimen Bridge and kept sketching in his notebook while saying: "The US military's defense at Shuimen Bridge is very serious. The previous bombing of the bridge reminded them that their headquarters is stationed on the mountainside north of the bridge.

On top, that’s where the tank troops are stationed. In addition, there are also a large number of U.S. troops stationed there. Its defense level is not weaker than that of the bridge deck.”

"Lao Wu, tell me how to deliver the explosive package to that bridge under such a strict layout."

Wu Wenxiang squinted and shook his head: "I can't see."

Xia Yuan turned his head and handed the book to him: "Look at this book."

Wu Wenxiang took a look and was a little surprised, "This...how is this different from the map we saw?"

Xia Yuandao: "Is this more intuitive and detailed?"

Wu Wenxiang stared at it and nodded seriously: "Yes, I believe it very much, as if the entire bridge appeared in front of my eyes."

Xia Yuan smiled: "My painting is still average. If you have paint, give me enough time, I can paint a real Watergate Bridge."

With enough time and paint, you can push your painting to the master level. Even if you don't reach Leng Jun's level, it is still simple to draw a bridge diagram on the other side's lower level. This painting method is just like taking a photo with a mobile phone.

It's a pity that what he draws now is only a rough outline, but it is still a bit novel to people today.

From the painting point of view, when comparing the Watergate Bridge, every point and every position can be seen in front of you.

Xia Yuan said: "What do you think if we send a large force to attack the enemy's headquarters head-on and send a squad of soldiers to carry out the task of blowing up the bridge?"

Wu Wenxiang thought for a while and shook his head: "Attracting firepower from the front and using detours from behind is a method that the US military will probably think of."

Xia Yuan said with a smile: "We can all imagine it, and the US military will naturally imagine it too. They are even more sensitive than us. Once there is the slightest sign of trouble, the other party will be suspicious. If we attack the enemy's headquarters tonight, as you said,

The enemy will still suspect that this is an enemy conspiracy, pretend to attack the headquarters, and blow up the Watergate Bridge, but what if we turn the fake into real and the real into fake?"

Although Wu Wenxiang is honest and honest, he is not stupid. He immediately thought of this.

"The enemy will be confused as to whether it is true to blow up the bridge or to capture the headquarters."

Xia Yuan continued to sketch and said: "Whether it is true or false, if one direction is broken through in two directions, we will make money."

Wu Wenxiang stared at Xia Yuan: "Be brave and resourceful!"

Xia Yuan smiled, what kind of bravery and strategy is this? After seeing the four crossings of Chishui on the sand table, you will realize that even if you turn on God's vision, you feel that you will lose the war, but you are forced to be defeated by that person who passed the shoddy

A map that manipulates hundreds of thousands of troops with applause.

He only scratched the surface of the art of war.

After sketching for more than three hours and evading six waves of US bombings, the two returned to the cliff in disgrace. Wu Qianli asked: "How was it?"

Xia Yuan patted the blackened book and said, "Company commander, they are all painted on!"

"Okay! Immediately call other platoon leaders and people from the Ninth Company to come over for a meeting! Discuss the task of blowing up the bridge!"

Xia Yuan walked beside Wu Qianli and said, "Company Commander, I have a half-baked plan."

"A less mature plan?" Wu Qianli turned to look at him: "What is the plan? Let me tell you."

Xia Yuandao: "When I was drawing the map, I found the US military headquarters on the Watergate Bridge."

Wu Qianli was shocked: "You want to attack the enemy's headquarters?"

Xia Yuan nodded: "Fake attack on the headquarters and seize Shuimen Bridge."

"Explain it in detail during the meeting."

In the cave, the voice of the messenger sounded: "Platoon leader, come here for a meeting!"

After a while, the platoon commanders of the seventh interleaving company and the ninth company came over, and everyone gathered around. Wu Qianli nodded: "Xia Yuan, let's start!"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Let me first tell you in detail the layout of the US military on the Watergate Bridge!"

The layout of the U.S. military at Watergate Bridge is very simple. The U.S. tank phalanx is stationed on the mountain col north of the bridge, overlooking the road below the mountain. At the same time, the U.S. military headquarters is also set up on this mountain col, with trenches crisscrossing it and many bunkers.

To the south of the bridge, there is a winding and wide road leading to Zhenxingli. The mountains are steep and rough, which is why the US military is stationed in the north of the bridge.

Through my own hand-drawn pictures, I sketched out the general layout and firepower points of the US military at Watergate Bridge.

Xia Yuan looked around them all and said: "If we want to face the US military directly and blow up the bridge with the US military's firepower, the price we have to pay is too much and it is not worth it, so I thought of a way, which is also a simple plan.

It can not only reduce the casualties of our troops, but also expand the results of the war."

He did not dare to say that he could complete the mission of bombing the bridge, but he talked about expanding the results. The so-called results were the US military headquarters and the Watergate Bridge.

After all, he was the one who cheated. On the top of the mountain, he studied the US military's defense at Watergate Bridge clearly. Which position was weak and which position was formidable. Which position was easy to attack and which position was difficult to attack. In these few hours

Not only did he draw pictures, but he also thoroughly researched them.

As the saying goes, if you are rich, you will attack with firepower; if you are poor, you will use tactics.

If firepower is not enough, then use your brain more.

The US military has heavy firepower, relying on tanks, armored vehicles, aircraft and cannons to push forward all the way. The Volunteer Army cannot do that and can only use more brains in tactics. Although the Volunteer Army suffers hardships, the Volunteer Army is also famous for its bravery and intelligence.

Xia Yuan is a person from the future. He knows this well and has thoroughly researched the US military and selected a suitable offensive plan that can not only reduce casualties but also complete combat missions.

He looked at Wu Qianli, who nodded: "Continue."

After receiving the company commander's affirmation, Xia Yuan dared to continue: "The main firepower of the US military roughly surrounds the bottom of the slope below the bridge and the road. The direction they are staring at is the Shuimen Bridge, because they know that if we want to attack the Shuimen Bridge, we can only attack it from

From the position below, attack up the mountain, break through the US military's fire blockade, and reach the Watergate Bridge."

"But if you look at the defense map I drew, the U.S. military has seven or eight firepower points on the periphery alone, not to mention the U.S. artillery positions in the rear, the U.S. tank battalions, and even the firepower from the commanding heights of the U.S. military. Their terrain advantages can overlook the entire

At the bottom of the slope, if we attack from below, we will only be beaten by them. Especially after the US military reinforcements arrived yesterday, this kind of attack is tantamount to a suicidal attack."

"So I thought of the enemy's headquarters!"

Xia Yuan reached out and pointed, and everyone's eyes fell on the U.S. tank camp at the mountain col.

"The tank battalion is an important defense of the US military. Although it has dense firepower, it also has an advantage for our army, that is, they dig more trenches."

Xia Yuan grinned, "Okay, after talking so much, let's talk about the battle plan. Attack in the southeast and fight in the northwest!"

To the southeast is Poxia and Qiaonan. To the northwest is Qiaobei Highway and the back mountain to the west.

"Attack from the southeast, attack from the northwest." Mei Sheng thought about this sentence seriously, "Fake attack on the front, and strike on the back?"

Xia Yuan nodded: "The US military knows that we are going to blow up the bridge, so we will put on a good show for them. We will attack from the southeast and shoulder the task of blowing up the bridge. We will attack from the northwest and steal the enemy's headquarters."

He pointed to the high mountain behind the US military defense and said: "I have carefully observed this position. It is above the US tank camp. There are US military scouts. Taking this position, from a high position, you can directly overlook the US military on the mountainside.

Soldiers with good marksmanship can set up sniper points here! Turn to US military firepower points, gunners, and commanders."

His finger pointed again and landed on the northwest side: "This position is the weak point of the US military's firepower and the slope is steep. The US military has only set up two firepower points here. If we take it, we can directly enter the trenches built by the US military. From here, we can enter the US military's trenches."

The tank battalion position on the mountainside! Platoon leader Yu Congrong is more suitable for this kind of chaotic battle, and Pinghe is suitable for high-point sniping."

"And I."

“Suitable for southeast top.”

Everyone looked at him.

Xia Yuan continued: "I have thought about it. Just leave the northwest top to our second platoon, and you can concentrate your superior forces to attack the US military headquarters."

Wu Qianli immediately refused: "This is not possible. The second platoon itself has suffered heavy casualties. There are only two squads left. How can it afford such a difficult task?"

Xia Yuan immediately assured: "Company Commander! Please believe me! Even if we can't take down the US military's bridge, knocking out their firepower points is enough to panic them! The so-called top does not mean the top! I have good marksmanship and good eyesight.

Sharp, specializing in hitting the US military's firepower points. The fourth and fifth squads feigned an attack, but did not charge."

"One requirement is to replace all the weapons and equipment of our second platoon with submachine guns and light machine guns. Each person is equipped with extra grenades that he carries every day. We want to create a scene of a large force attacking the bridge."

"But actually, our target is their headquarters."

"Let's fight first and fight him for half an hour. The US military will sense something is wrong and will definitely reinforce Shuimen Bridge. At this time, the enemy's rear is weak. You are concentrating all your forces to rush into the US military's mountain col and seize the headquarters."

"The enemy's reinforcements in the rear will only last for ten minutes at most, and we will support them for four to five minutes before retreating quickly. At this time, the battle on your side has also begun. When they realize that our true intention is

When we reach the headquarters, we will definitely go to support the headquarters. We will suddenly counterattack from the southeast and capture the Watergate Bridge in one fell swoop!"

After hearing Xia Yuan's plan, everyone present looked at him intently.

Xia Yuan didn't know why and said, "Is there a problem?"

Wu Qianli thought carefully: "Your second platoon may not be able to withstand it. Lei Gong, your artillery platoon leaves a squad of soldiers to hit all the artillery. When the second platoon counterattacks, concentrate the artillery fire to cover and blow up the Shuimen Bridge."

.”

He stared at Xia Yuan: "This plan seems perfect, but it actually tests the combat quality of the soldiers. Whether it's your high-point sniping, or shooting from the southeast or northwest, it's too testing, but I have to say that this plan

Very bold.”

"Even if the bridge bombing fails, it would be a good thing if we can capture the enemy's headquarters."

Xia Yuan said: "Company Commander, it gets dark at half past four, and this is just my battle plan for the first half of the night."

Everyone's expressions became condensed, and even Tan Ziwei, who was resting, opened his eyes.

Mei Sheng asked: "Do you have any plans for the second half?"

"yes."

Xia Yuan nodded and grinned, "Soldiers never tire of deceit. If the operation fails in the first half of the night, our second platoon will quickly give up on blowing up the Shuimen Bridge and quickly move to the northwest of you. You will quickly withdraw and quickly move to the southeast. Then

We will stage the so-called southeast top and northwest attack again, and the plan remains the same."

"The operation plan failed in the first half of the night, and we continued to fight like this in the second half of the night. The US military most likely thought that we would not give up on the headquarters. This time they probably would not reinforce the Southeast Watergate Bridge, but would quietly guard the headquarters for half an hour.

, I led the second platoon to attack the US military headquarters. At this time, the US military has been fooled, and you can just let go and fight."

Yu Congrong's mouth widened after hearing this: "This, are you playing tricks on your brain like this?"

Mei Sheng also had a question: "What if the enemy is not fooled? What if they think we are really Watergate Bridge this time, not the headquarters?"

Xia Yuan smiled and said: "Then you retreat, I will directly steal his headquarters."

A platoon leader of the Ninth Company said: "It depends on your second platoon? How can this be possible? If we don't succeed in the first half of the night, can we succeed in the second half of the night only on your second platoon?"

Xia Yuan grinned: "Then you are looking down on me, aren't you? Ask the soldiers of our seventh interleaved company, who doesn't know about my Xia Yuan's humanoid grenade? Let's see if I don't blow up their artillery positions and headquarters.

, don’t forget, I am a single soldier who pulled out a cart of supplies when he entered Xiajieyuli, why didn’t I steal him from a small headquarters?”

"After you retreat, don't move. When they see that I stole the headquarters, they will definitely come back to defend. At this time, you can just attack them. If they don't defend, it will be easier. Didn't Lei Gong support me?

Is the second platoon an artillery squad? I led them to the enemy's artillery position and used their artillery to blow up their men."

He looked at Yu Congrong, "Can't Yu Congrong know how to drive a tank? Drive a whole tank."

Xia Yuan had a confident smile on his face. If we were to play this kind of night attack, no one would be the opponent of Xia Yuan who had night vision turned on and it looked like it was daytime.

Wu Qianli and others, as well as several platoon leaders of the Ninth Company, only felt their scalps numb.

But I have to say, this plan is really good.

Wu Qianli thought about it seriously and clapped his hands: "That's the plan!"
