Our army's plan to attack Sabah is basically implemented in the front line according to the tactical idea of "front breakthrough and two wings encirclement". This is the case in the small direction, and the same is true in the big direction.
In the small direction, our regiment used this tactic to attack these high grounds of the Vietnamese army. In the large direction, our regiment also broke through the front and the other two regiments surrounded the flanks.
This tactic cannot be said to be wrong. After all, it is a land war, and our army has the advantage of its military strength. Then division and siege are of course, which can greatly exert the advantage of our army's military strength.
But... I have to say that this tactic is still very old.
The US military had already shifted its focus to a more flexible sky as early as World War II. After gaining air supremacy... it could bomb the enemy's railways, highways, bridges, etc. at will, paralyzing its traffic, causing it to
The troops, arms, supplies, etc. cannot be supplied; they can also bomb arsenals, power stations, oil depots, barracks and other military facilities, resulting in the lack of supply of enemy supplies; they can also carry out beheading operations on important military targets to attack their command systems; they can even
Use paratroopers to airborne and occupy important military important places...
This will make the tactics flexible and changeable. If used well, it is entirely possible to attack the enemy in a scalpel style and disintegrate the enemy's defense at the minimum cost in a short period of time.
It should be said that our army also had the opportunity to develop this tactic. The reason is that during the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, our army had made great breakthroughs in equipment in both the air force and the army... If we develop in the right direction
, Then our army can surpass the United States and the Soviet Union, at least the Air Force should be available.
There are many reasons for this result:
On the one hand, for a long time, our army believed that infantry was the most important role on the battlefield.
This is related to the fact that the People's Liberation Army has mostly won victory on the ground with tenacious will since its founding. The most convincing thing is that our army can win the United** aircraft, cannons, and warships without air force and navy.
...So many people believe that as long as the army is strong enough, as long as the soldiers fight bravely and have a firm political stance, even the most powerful enemy can be defeated.
As for the spiritual atomic bomb, a considerable number of people in this era believe that brave and tenacious fighting spirit is the most important.
On the other hand, during the ten-year turmoil, our army not only made no progress in scientific research, but was regressing...
Therefore, until now, our Air Force is still not suitable for participating in combat... According to the superiors, it is to avoid the escalation of war, but everyone knows... the battle has been fought like this, isn't it enough to escalate?
So now we still have to use infantry to interweave like in the era of resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea...
When I was walking on the road, I was wondering: Why didn’t my superiors send more troops to support the besieged intersecting troops? The focus of the Vietnamese army’s attack was that I intersecting troops, right? Then their troops will definitely not be short, so we
What role can the company go up? Isn’t it a drop in the bucket?
Later I realized that not only our company was going to reinforce. The superiors also had their reasons for doing this.
Company Commander Luo said at the meeting... The interspersed troops of a battalion of our army had already suffered heavy casualties before they could be penetrated to the designated position. This battalion can be said to be the most breath-taking force on the battlefield.
, because they didn't even see the shadow of the enemy... When they were passing through a bamboo forest, most of them were killed and injured by dense bombing of long-range artillery fire from Vietnam.
Of course, the long-range artillery of the Vietnamese Japanese cannot be compared with our army on the front battlefield, but it is more than enough to deal with our army's interspersed troops... and there are many benefits to deal with our army's interspersed troops.
First, the Vietnamese artillery can bombard the target.
It is not difficult to do this. The Vietnamese army only needs to send a few observation posts to take radio stations to observe at a high place... Even the Vietnamese army does not need to send an observation post at all, just send a few steps to the people in Vietnamese villages.
Telephone...those common people will report our army's movements to the Vietnamese army in a timely manner.
So... our army's artillery can know the exact location no matter where we go.
Second, the Vietnamese artillery does not have to worry about our artillery fighting back.
If our artillery wants to retaliate against retaliation or fire suppression, we must calculate the position of the Vietnamese artillery position based on the ballistics of the artillery shells fired by the Vietnamese artillery... However, if these artillery shells were bombed and penetrated into my army...
That is, it is to bomb the rear of the Vietnamese army itself, so our army could not tell whether these shells came from our artillery or Vietnamese artillery.
Therefore, the Vietnamese artillery can be said to choose the time and place to bomb our army's interspersed troops at will.
Just like the Vietnamese army chose bamboo forest from the beginning... Anyone with combat experience knows that bamboo forests or forests can increase the lethality of shells exponentially. The reason is that those shells will explode on the target's head because of bamboo forests.
, In this explosion, the shrapnel shot from above and down like a scattered flower of a goddess, and there were also large pieces of bamboo and branches that were blown up like arrows...
So our army's first interspersed unit returned in vain due to excessive casualties. It is said that only dozens of people in a battalion could come back alive, and all of them were injured... and the Japanese devils seemed to have lost it.
There are only some shells.
Our army's second interspersed troops were much more careful. They no longer focused on breakthroughs but divided into several parts and interspersed towards the target.
But the problem is...
This tactic of interspersed is often used when the enemy does not know, or even if the enemy knows it, there is no way we will intersperse to where we want to intersperse.
At this time, the Vietnamese Japanese not only knew that our army was going to intersperse, but could even infer the location and direction of our army from the route... So the second intersperse unit was surrounded by the Vietnamese army, which was expected.
It is precisely because of these experience that superiors know one thing: the troops sent to reinforcements should not be too concentrated, otherwise they will be easily covered by artillery fire from the Vietnamese army, so they are divided into several batches in units of companies from different routes.
Go to reinforce the interlaced troops trapped in the encirclement.
However, dispersion also has the problem of dispersion...
After resting on the position for an hour, we set out before dark.
The rest time of this hour was obtained by Company Commander Luo from the regiment commander, because our army has been carrying out the clearance mission since the war started last night. Although it has not directly attacked the front line, it has never had time to rest.
Of course there will be no problem with the regiment commander, but because of the emergency situation, we are only allowed to rest for an hour... This hour may not be a big deal for others, but for us, it is to give us a person who can restore our strength.
Opportunity... I remembered it afterwards. If there were no such hour, I was afraid that our army would be exhausted in the subsequent battles.
After resting, we will replenish food and ammunition... In fact, there is no need to say much. Even the new recruits of Wu Zhijun knew that these are the most important things for interspersed troops.
Then we marched along the highway to the flank for more than half an hour. In order not to be too conspicuous, we changed to the path at Chen Yiyi's suggestion.
As we walked, the troops arrived at a small village. This village was very small, with only eight or nine thatched huts, so even Chen Yiyi couldn't call the name of this village. However, experience on the battlefield told us... Vietnam
Any village may be a trap, so we didn't dare to be careless and stopped marching outside the village.
I raised my telescope and looked at the village. I couldn't see anyone moving in the village. Only five or sixty meters behind were four Vietnamese women working in the fields. Next to them, there were three buffaloes leisurely.
Gnaw on the grass beside the field.
On the surface, there is no sign of anything unusual in the village. It can even be said that the village does not seem to be affected by external wars... like a paradise.
We are not surprised by this, it should be related to Vietnam's long-term war. The Vietnamese seem to have adapted to how to continue to live in the war years.
So... When this battle starts, the Vietnamese people who have the conditions will be afraid or have the conditions migrated south long before the war, and the Vietnamese people who are left cannot or are reluctant to leave. They will be the only way to continue working.
There is no other choice... People always have to live, right? So this land still needs to be planted. It is impossible for them to stop arable land and eat as long as the war takes place.
"Second Platoon Commander!" After observing for a while, Company Commander Luo ordered me: "You know Vietnamese, take a squad to see the situation!"
"Yes!" I responded and set off with Chen Yiyi's Class 2.
The reason why she brought Chen Yiyi was of course because she was familiar with the situation in Vietnam. I think the company commander actually meant this.
We walked into the village carefully with guns, and searched every room... We did this because we were worried that there were authenticity or hidden Vietnamese troops in the room. Although we did not have a company of people, we did not have to worry about the attack of small groups of Vietnamese troops.
, but be careful, there will always be no mistakes.
However, after searching for a while, no abnormal situation was found. Only in a thatched hut, three ordinary Vietnamese women were eating.
They seemed a little panicked when they saw us suddenly appearing in front of us. I was embarrassed to let the soldiers go in and rummaged through the cabinets. In addition, they also considered that they had to seize the time to march... so there was only this hut.
search.
Later I realized that I had made a mistake: On this battlefield, any Vietnamese who looked like a commoner was likely to be an enemy. The reason was that at this time, almost all the people were soldiers, so any one
