After taking over the command of Fakashan, the first thing I did was to withdraw a large number of soldiers... This large number of soldiers including two platoon agent companies and two platoon second battalions.
Simply put, a platoon of agents was arranged on the No. 3 position, and two squads were arranged on the No. 4 and No. 5 position respectively... This is exactly the same as the troops arranged by the Vietnamese army in Faka Mountain.
I am not saying that I follow the deployment of the Vietnamese Japanese troops...but the restrictions on conditions. The positions No. 3, 4, and 5 are so large... There are only so many people that can be accommodated. Before, we were for the offensive and charge, now
If so many troops were placed on it...the Vietnamese army was bombarded with fierce artillery fire, I am afraid that the casualties would be inevitable.
Therefore, it is wise to defend on the top of the mountain with only a small amount of troops, and more troops are built on the back slope, at the foot of the mountain or at the rear to prepare for reinforcements...
This is the so-called "fueling tactic". If one person is injured or killed on the top of the mountain, one person will be added behind us... So there seems to be so many troops on the top of the mountain.
Although this tactic is old-fashioned, it is a very practical tactic today when both sides have powerful artillery!
Then the engineer carried the cement prefabricated parts to Faka Mountain... These cement prefabricated parts were of course cement blocks that we prepared early in the morning to water with steel cement. Some of these cement blocks were used for support on the top of the tunnel, and some were also
It is used to build a castle or reinforce trenches... The benefits of doing so are obvious, which can save a lot of time on building a position.
This is very important to us... because only by building complete fortifications in Mount Faka can we stick to this Mount Faka for a long time.
Finally, I transferred a group of snipers to the position... These snipers were mainly arranged in two positions No. 4 and No. 5...
Before the Vietnamese army's artillery attack, I found that most of the artillery fired from the Vietnamese army were blocked by the slightly higher position No. 3... So although positions No. 4 and 5 are not conducive to defense, they are a good place for snipers to lurk.
... There is almost no need to worry about being hit by the Vietnamese cannons. By the way, this is the most feared by snipers... No matter how well they lurk, it is useless. The enemy does not care whether there are people here or not, and they use artillery fire over and over again.
Just cover it up. If the sniper lurks in such a position... it can be said that he was sacrificed unjustly.
My idea is:
The Vietnamese army would not have used helicopters to launch an attack from behind our army like we did...
First of all, even if the Vietnamese army now realizes the importance of helicopters on the battlefield, they don’t have that time and do not have the conditions to train a group of soldiers who can lead to a rushing and subside and air-step coordination.
Second, let’s know that this Faka Mountain is easy to attack on the side facing Vietnam, but difficult to attack on the side facing our army... If the Vietnamese army descends to the rear of our army to attack, it will be full of food...
Thank you so hard, you risked such a great danger to run to the difficult place behind our army to attack!
So the Vietnamese army should have only one way... that is, just like we often fought against the Vietnamese Japanese before... the Vietnamese army would occupy high quality and familiarity with the terrain and choose to launch an attack on our army at night.
Especially the nights a few days ago... You should know that the nights a few days ago were the time when our military fortifications had not been constructed yet. Moreover, our army had to build fortifications during the day and open their eyes widened at night to guard against the enemy's attack...
This will soon become a fatigue army.
This is what I said to Teacher Liang... The most difficult thing was the other few days, especially at night!
After a few days... with the gradual completion of fortifications and the improvement of defense facilities such as mines and barbed wire, it became more and more difficult for the Vietnamese army to attack in the darkness of the night. And we became safer!
So... the snipers arranged on positions No. 4 and No. 5 became very necessary... Their mission is to aim at positions No. 3, and everything may be the enemy's target...
Everything mentioned here may be the enemy's target... refers to the squirming black shadows, or the position that makes a little sound... If these targets are attacked by ordinary warriors, they may not only fail to hit the target, but also be exposed.
but it is different for snipers... They have soldiers who have been specially trained in this area, especially those who can listen to the voice and change position...
The ability to sniper's voice-based position comes from Chen Yiyi... She is a master in tracking. One of the key points of tracking is to judge the position of the target based on the sound, so it is normal for Chen Yiyi to do this trick.
But this made the soldiers of the sniper company suffer... They didn't know how many days and nights they had lie in the night just to hit the target where the sound came... Chen Yiyi's training method is like this,
More than a dozen targets were erected in the dark... A bell was tied under these targets, and a rope was tied to the bell, and the other end of the rope was held in the hands of another soldier... The warrior just pulled the rope,
A bell will ring... At this time, the trained warrior must be able to hit the target to be considered qualified!
This ability is generally not useful... but it is very effective when fighting night battles, especially when dealing with tactics such as enemy holes.
Because considering that the Vietnamese army is good at or that the Vietnamese army also likes to fight night battles with our army... this kind of training becomes very necessary.
The battle situation really developed as I thought... During the day, the Vietnamese army did not launch a counterattack against Faka Mountain immediately. They knew that rushing up at this time was like dying... During the day, we didn't even need to exert our strength in the defense, we just needed
The artillery observer reports the coordinates and then smashes them with artillery fire... Our artillery fire is stronger than the Vietnamese army, so it is no fool to not make full use of this!
But this does not mean that the Vietnamese army did nothing... The shells would occasionally hit the Faka Mountain, and sometimes they also launched logistics supply lines... Fortunately, we had already prepared for this, transporting supplies and prefabricating them.
The engineers also have the qualities of evading cannons. When they hear the whistling of shells, they immediately fall down and cover it with prefabricated pieces, so there is no casualties!
But the shells were not eye-catching... Under the chaotic bombing of the Vietnamese army, five engineers were hit by two shells and died on the road to transport supplies!
"Thirty-six casualties!" Zhao Jingping reminded from the side.
In the early morning battle, our army suffered 31 casualties. In addition to the few engineers who were injured and killed at this time... Although it was still a distance away from the two hundred people restricted by the superiors, this was only the first day!
