The wonderful use of refueling tactics
"Boom, boom, boom..." Although the distance between the forward corps and the main force was twelve kilometers. However, the huge explosion of artillery shells in the Japanese military camp in Datang Town still vaguely spread to Kanto.
The army's main force barracks were in the ears of all Japanese troops...
"Baga, where is the sound of artillery coming from? No, it's the sound of artillery coming from the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty. Something must have happened to the vanguard corps... Combat staff, contact the vanguard corps immediately. What's the matter with the cannon sound?
What happened to the soldiers..." Commander Mizu, General Lang, after hearing the continuous loud explosions of artillery shells coming from the direction of Datang Town, couldn't help but frowning and asked. At the same time, there was no trace of
A good premonition also came to my mind
"Ha Yi..." the combat staff responded decisively and quickly rushed out of the headquarters.
What made General Meizu feel desperate was that less than two minutes later, the combat staff officer who had just left rushed in with a panic look on his face. Then, he replied eagerly:
"Your Excellency, Commander, something happened. We lost contact with the Forward Corps... The director of the Telecommunications Division just reported that the entire Forward Corps, and all radio stations above the wing level, have lost contact with the headquarters... In addition, the Forward Observation Post reported,
The sky above Datang Town, where the forward corps camp is located, has been completely shrouded in fire, as if it has been hit by fierce artillery fire..."
"Nani, the forward corps has been hit by artillery fire. The cunning Chinese people are just lingering on Bagya Road... Since they want to come here to die, then I, Mizu, will help them every time... let me know immediately...
Order: The 102nd Division, 102nd Division, 135th Division, and 136th Division will set off immediately to reinforce the Forward Corps. They must rush to Datang Town in the shortest possible time. With the cooperation of the Forward Corps without internal or external attacks,
Surround and annihilate the Northeast Field Army that sneaked up on us..." A burst of anger hit his heart, and after a brief thought, General Mizuchiro ordered without any hesitation, with a murderous look on his face.
Although the military camp where hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops are located is very large in area and scale, the momentum of the mobilization of hundreds of thousands of troops by the four main divisions is still very huge. Just with the four main divisions,
Armed with a large number of heavy weapons, they had just left the military camp. News one after another about the mobilization of Japanese troops reached the ears of the Plateau Commander of the Third Corps through intelligence personnel...
"Commander Gao, the little devils have begun to take action. There are four field divisions in total, more than 100,000 people. What should we do next? Should we implement it according to the original combat plan..." After hearing the report from the combat staff, the guard division
Division Commander Bruce Lee's face immediately showed an excited look. He asked Commander-in-Chief Gao Yuan next to him with an eager look on his face.
"Commander Li, have all participating troops entered their combat positions as required, especially the artillery groups in our hands..." Time was running out, Gao Yuan did not hesitate at all and asked directly...
"Everything is in place..." Bruce Lee replied with certainty.
"Okay... Commander Li, the Japanese army has dispatched four field divisions with hundreds of thousands of troops. In terms of strength, we no longer have any advantage... Therefore, my opinion is that in this battle, infantry cooperation will be the supplement.
, artillery combat is the main focus. Find a way to knock out the Japanese artillery unit. Only in this way can we seize the entire initiative in the next battle. Of course, there is still no change in the original battle plan. With the help of our hands
The hundreds of thousands of troops will eat up at least one Japanese field division before dawn..." Gao Yuan pointed at the battle map in front of him and said...
"Commander Gao, just give the order... All officers and men of the Guard Division promise to obey the command..." Bruce Lee replied affirmatively, and his face was shrouded in excitement as Gao Yuan's words fell...
"Okay, according to the original battle plan, the Japanese reinforcements will launch an attack immediately after entering the ambush circle... The guard division must cut off the march of the Japanese reinforcements in the shortest possible time. Then, it was like a nail.
The same, nailed to the position until the entire ambush battle is completely over... The artillery unit, according to the predetermined combat plan, implements refueling tactics against the enemy's artillery unit. The specific battle will be commanded by Division Commander Chen Guangrong... Now I, I
Order all combat troops to enter their positions immediately and prepare for battle..." Gao Yuan ordered very decisively...
At the artillery position temporary command post, Chen Guangrong, commander of the heavy artillery division, was listening to the artillery staff in front of him with a serious face, reporting on the specific location and firepower deployment of each artillery position...
"Division Commander, as required, the No. 1 artillery position has deployed all the infantry artillery belonging to a corps of the Third Corps, a total of nine infantry artillery companies and 54 artillery pieces... The No. 2 artillery position has deployed all the remaining infantry artillery pieces of the Third Corps.
Infantry artillery, a total of 130 artillery pieces... The No. 3 artillery position deployed all the mountain artillery of the Third Corps' nine mountain artillery battalions... The No. 7 artillery position deployed the only rocket artillery regiment of our heavy artillery division, a total of 108 rocket launchers
.....Currently, all artillery units have entered their positions and are ready..." Pointing to the map in front of him, the artillery staff reported.
"Very good, order all artillery positions to be on standby at any time and prepare for battle..." Chen Guangrong nodded with satisfaction. Then, he set his sights on the battlefield not far away where a large-scale ambush was about to break out.
Above…..
Finally, while Chen Guangrong was waiting anxiously, a crisp ringtone of the phone reached everyone's ears.
"Report to the division commander, forward observation post report. The troops of a Japanese division have successfully entered the ambush position. The forward commander requested our artillery unit to open fire immediately to deal a devastating artillery blow to the enemy..." After answering the phone, the artillery staff officer
He replied with excitement.
"Okay, after waiting for such a long time, it's finally our artillery unit's turn..." Chen Guangrong breathed a long sigh of relief and replied with excitement.
However, in just a moment, Chen Guangrong's excited face was shrouded in a serious look. Then, he gave a decisive order to the artillery staff officer in front of him.
"Commander Wang, convey my order. The No. 1 artillery position is to shoot Zhu Yuan as scheduled. Open fire immediately to attract the artillery fire of the enemy's reinforcements... Order the No. 2 artillery position to prepare for battle... At the same time, order all artillery staff officers
, be prepared to calculate the specific location of the enemy's artillery positions. You must calculate the specific locations of the Japanese artillery positions as soon as possible..."
"Yes, Commander..."
"Boom, boom, boom..." A huge roar sounded from the No. 1 artillery position. Immediately after, the sky above the ambush battlefield a few kilometers away was illuminated red by the firelight generated by the explosion of the artillery shells...
One minute, two minutes... As time passed by, at the No. 1 artillery position, beside each infantry gun, there were no less than fifty shell casings piled up. Although, after ten
After minutes of continuous shelling, every artilleryman showed a look of exhaustion on his face. However, in the huge artillery position, no one took a rest. They were still firing artillery shells one after another in the cold night, shirtless.
, quickly advance the gun barrel and launch...
Of course, ten minutes of continuous shelling was enough to be attacked. The well-trained Japanese artillery troops arranged their positions and launched a counterattack...
Sure enough, just as hundreds of artillerymen tirelessly repeated their actions and fired at the target, a sharp whistle of artillery shells reached everyone's ears. Following closely behind, they were less than fifty meters away from the artillery position.
When a hill broke through, there was a huge explosion of artillery shells. It was obvious that this was a test firing by the Japanese artillery, and within a minute at most, dense rain of artillery shells would fall around everyone...
"Quick, the troops will be transferred immediately, the Japs are starting to fight back..."
The artillery commander decisively issued the order to retreat, and the entire artillery position immediately fell into chaos... Although the soldiers used their fastest speed to transfer the artillery in their hands. However, just
When the first round of Japanese artillery fire arrived, dozens of artillery pieces, together with nearly a hundred artillery personnel, were completely enveloped by the fierce artillery fire...
"Division Commander, the No. 1 artillery position was hit by fierce artillery fire from at least two Japanese artillery regiments, losing 12 artillery pieces and 132 artillerymen... At present, the staff has successfully calculated the specific location of the Japanese artillery position..." rushed in
The headquarters and artillery staff quickly reported the situation.
Looking at the No. 1 artillery position not far away, which had been completely shrouded in artillery fire. Chen Guangrong, with a serious face, immediately ordered: "The two artillery regiments, with more than a hundred artillery pieces in the No. 2 artillery position,
It’s enough for them to drink a pot...Immediately give an order to the No. 2 artillery position, and all artillery will immediately adjust to shoot at Zhu Yuan, the target, the Japanese artillery position, and immediately launch a counterattack..."
"Yes, teacher..."
Less than five minutes after Chen Guangrong's order was issued, the Japanese artillery position, which had been extremely arrogant just now, began to slowly misfire under the fierce counterattack of more than a hundred artillery pieces...
In the Japanese military camp, the artillery battle between the enemy and ourselves lasted less than five minutes. A combat staff rushed into the general headquarters panting. Then, he said with a look of panic.
"Your Excellency, Commander, urgent call to reinforce the troops in Datang Town. The troops were violently attacked by China's blocking force. Our artillery position was violently counterattacked by more than a hundred enemy artillery pieces. The troops suffered heavy losses. We request artillery support...
"
"Baga... Immediately mobilize two field heavy artillery regiments to counterattack. We must destroy the Chinese artillery positions. Quickly... order reinforcements to break through the Chinese defense lines immediately. We must rush to the mainland in the shortest possible time.
Tangzhen, join up with the forward corps. Otherwise, military law will be engaged..." General Mizuchiro ordered very decisively.
"Ha Yi, Your Excellency Commander..."
In less than ten minutes, two field heavy artillery regiments, with more than 70 large-caliber howitzers, relied on their range advantage to launch a fierce counterattack against the No. 2 artillery position...
"Division Commander, according to the forward artillery observation post report, the Japanese army assembled two field heavy artillery regiments with a total of more than 70 large-caliber howitzers to launch an unusually violent counterattack against our No. 2 artillery position... because there are too many artillery pieces on the position.
, so the loss this time is a bit big..." The artillery staff officer in the heavy artillery division headquarters said hesitantly.
"Have you found out the specific location of the Japanese artillery position? Also, is the Japanese artillery position within the range of our mountain artillery at Position 3?" Regarding the specific losses of the troops, Chen Guangrong did not continue to ask.
Yes, he asked with a solemn expression.
"It has been calculated that more than 70 large-caliber howitzers are completely within the range of the mountain guns of our No. 3 artillery position..." the artillery staff replied very definitely.
"Okay, let the little devils have a taste of our refueling tactics today... Tell the soldiers at the No. 3 artillery position to take aim and hit me. We must avenge our fallen comrades and destroy all the exposed areas of the Japanese army."
Artillery position..." A sneer flashed quickly at the corner of Chen Guangrong's mouth, and then he ordered very decisively.
"Yes, teacher..."
The No. 3 artillery position had just opened fire for less than two minutes. Just as the enemy and we were engaging in fierce exchanges of fire with more than two hundred artillery pieces, the combat staff from the Japanese Army General Headquarters once again rushed in panting.
"Your Majesty Commander, something happened..."
"Nani?" Listening to the continuous explosion of artillery shells in the military camp, General Mitsu immediately frowned, waiting for the answer from the combat staff in front of him.
"Your Excellency, Commander, two minutes ago, the Chinese once again dispatched an artillery group to launch a counterattack against our artillery position. Currently, our army's two field heavy artillery regiments are fighting very hard... However, the enemy's artillery fire
The number is really too much. With more than 70 artillery pieces from two field heavy artillery regiments, we can hold on for ten minutes at most..." the combat staff officer quickly replied.
"Bagya Road, the cunning Chinese people, and the cunning Northeast Field Army have hidden so much heavy firepower... But don't forget, I have five field heavy artillery regiments and dozens of
The division is directly under the artillery wing. Since the cunning Chinese want to have a close artillery battle with us, then tonight, let them have a good taste of the true strength of our Kwantung Army artillery force..." Mizu said every
General Jiro's face was immediately shrouded in a thick murderous aura.
"Now I order...the remaining three field heavy artillery regiments to immediately set up positions and launch a counterattack. Tell all regiment commanders to completely destroy the Chinese artillery positions...At the same time, telegraph the field artillery regiments of each division.
Team, set up positions immediately and wait for orders from headquarters..."
"Ha Yi, your Excellency, Commander, is wise and humble enough to convey the order right away..."
Time passed minute by minute, and artillery units one after another participated in the battle as the enemy and ourselves. In less than a few hours, an unprecedented artillery battle, at least on the Chinese battlefield, was launched.
Under the command of Chen Guangrong, the battle started.
However, Chen Guangrong, as the commander-in-chief, paid a huge price in the face of the fierce counterattack of dozens of Japanese artillery positions regardless of the artillery positions. As his trump card, the heavy artillery division's only rocket launcher regiment was never used...
..
Listening to the harsh whistling of artillery shells and deafening explosions in the sky. Although the face of the artillery commander Chen Guangrong looked very calm and without a trace of waves, inside he was very anxious. Because
He knew that under the fierce attack of hundreds of large-caliber artillery pieces by the Japanese army, his artillery unit would suffer a loss every one minute...
Hard work pays off, perhaps it is God's favor for the Northeast Field Army. Just when Chen Guangrong was standing at the headquarters, waiting anxiously, the figure of the artillery staff appeared in front of everyone in a very timely manner.
"Reporting to the division commander, according to the report from the forward observation post. So far, the Japanese army has used five field heavy artillery regiments, six artillery regiments, and a total of more than 400 large-caliber artillery pieces to engage in exchanges with our army..."
"Five field heavy artillery regiments, six field artillery regiments. It seems that our opponents have almost exposed all their assets... Now, it is finally our turn to have our killer weapon. Staff Wang, all of the Japanese army
Have the specific locations of the artillery positions been calculated?" Chen Chenguang asked with excitement.
"Everything has been calculated..." the artillery staff replied affirmatively.
"Very good... Immediately send all the shooting elements to the rocket artillery regiment positions. Order the rocket artillery regiment to conduct ten rounds of rapid fire on all targets in five minutes according to the daily average or force equipment of each position. Then
, immediately move the artillery position and continue to be on standby..." Chen Guangrong ordered decisively.
"Yes, teacher..."
"Swish, swish, swish..." A burst of whistling sound reached everyone's ears. The rocket launcher group, more than 100 rocket launchers, and a total of more than 600 rockets, like stars and raindrops, quickly flew towards their target.
past….
More than a hundred rocket launchers, ten rounds of firing, and almost six thousand rockets, almost all shot into the Japanese artillery position in less than five minutes... For a time, in the huge Japanese military camp, artillery pieces were fired one after another.
The position was turned into ruins under the impact of the raindrops of rocket shells...
"Order all artillery positions to concentrate the remaining artillery fire. Under the command of the forward artillery observers, launch a final counterattack against the remaining Japanese artillery positions. All Japanese large-caliber artillery must be destroyed before dawn..." Feeling that the Japanese army is getting more and more powerful.
After the weak counterattack, Chen Guangrong's face was immediately replaced by a smile of victory, and he ordered with excitement.
