In the first exchange of fire, the Soviet army used strong firepower and precise shooting to give the Romanian army's vanguard a head-on attack.
A large number of soldiers fell down with a groan, and more soldiers looked for bunkers to hide on the spot. It must be said that Luo Jun's reaction speed was not slow, and he was also proud of the large trees in the forest. A large number of soldiers leaned against the trees, pointing their guns at
You probably aim at the enemy's position and shoot. The results of this kind of blind shooting can only depend on luck.
This behavior also exposed their position. The recoilless rifles directly bombarded them, and there were also bombardments from RPGs in between! These explosives came one after another, turning into large and small explosions. The hiding soldiers were bombed.
It was bloody and bloody, and even the pine trees were directly blown up!
On the frontal battlefield, the Luo Army encountered strong firepower, and the entire regiment's strength was dispersed, which also made their firepower intensity even worse.
Vladescu immediately ordered the two battalion commanders to retreat immediately, but without his orders, many attacking soldiers had already begun to retreat.
"What the hell! How come the Russians have such strong firepower? Is this the combat effectiveness of the 284th Division?"
Vladescu could only stamp his feet, knowing that his soldiers were blown back by other people's shells!
Could it be that each of their squads has an artillery piece? What kind of firepower configuration should this be!
He knew that relying on his soldiers, most of whom were equipped with bolt-action rifles, to attack the enemy's positions guarded by a large number of infantry cannons and machine guns was purely a death-seeking act. The battle would turn into an attack more than twenty years ago.
Fight! The infantry regiment must suffer serious casualties!
Among the many casualties of the Luo army, several soldiers died tragically.
The one who killed them was none other than Natasha. On the battlefield, this girl had a cold and capable look on her face. She was in charge of anti-tank warfare, and she fought with extravagant armor-piercing bullets! As her body trembled violently, the huge warhead flew.
The 30,000 joules of kinetic energy were so powerful that they directly penetrated the pine trees serving as bunkers and tore apart the Roman soldiers who were hiding behind them.
The enemy turned into a mass of bloody fragments, and the tree was torn into two pieces and collapsed!
Natasha's combat situation was not isolated. A large number of pine trees were blown up by artillery shells. Just a hundred meters in front of the Soviet front line, a large number of trees collapsed!
Thanks to the important cover of these trees, the attacking Vladescu had some breathing space.
His regiment was still resisting, and sporadic firefights continued. No Romanian soldiers dared to show their faces. Their situation was very bad. They could not attack if they attacked, and they would have to bear the responsibility of deserting if they retreated.
At this critical moment, Vladescu had no choice but to give it a try, hoping that his own artillery would provide strong support.
The communication with the division headquarters was quickly connected, and when he learned that the person on the other side was the division commander himself, Vladescu, not thinking about etiquette, shouted into the walkie-talkie: "Division Commander! We encountered a tenacious resistance from the Russians! The troops suffered heavy losses!"
We need fire support!"
"Okay! Quickly determine the enemy's position! I will send out artillery support immediately!"
At this moment, the division commander Grisescu was in a panic. He could clearly feel the brutality of the battlefield even outside the forest. The sound of artillery fire and explosions was too dense. It was not from our own hands, but from the Russians! It was from the swamp.
Great team coming!
Vladescu could still be fearless in the face of danger, and he quickly gave his division commander an approximate location of the enemy. This information was also quickly forwarded to the artillery regiment, and fire support was about to arrive.
Grisescu gave the final order: "You can retreat five hundred meters! Be careful of being accidentally injured by our artillery fire!"
This was a formal tactical evasion order. The Romanian soldiers finally breathed a sigh of relief. They left the current bunker and retreated, fully expecting that the artillery fire would destroy the Soviet front line.
But they also knew that the relief was temporary, and after the artillery fire passed, the attack would continue.
Grisescu's order did not stop there. Another fully-organized regiment under his command was searching the forest on the south side of the highway. Perhaps the Russians did not set up defenses there at all, and because his own side was under attack, he immediately ordered the Germans to
Mitriscu's 56th Regiment immediately made a slow search movement in the direction of the sound of gunfire.
Seeing that the attacking enemy retreated, the Soviet soldiers fighting on the defensive were very happy.
According to past experience, the enemy will definitely come back after being defeated once, and they will launch a second attack! Yang Mingzhi relaxed for a while, and the enemy would rush in anyway and add more corpses!
He leaned against a big tree and quickly took out his cigarette case. In addition to holding one cigarette in his mouth, he also gave out a few cigarettes to his guards. It is said that between fierce battles, he smoked a cigarette to calm down. No matter how nervous the soldiers were, they smoked
, his nervousness will surely calm down.
There were a lot of soldiers smoking. Only a few of them were sipping the German cigarettes they had found from the enemy's pockets. Most of them relied on paper they got from unknown sources, poured some tobacco leaves into them, and rolled their own cigarettes to smoke.
.
Abram felt a little embarrassed after smoking the officer's cigarette.
He patted his chest and said, "Commander! I guess the enemy has not only cigarettes but also lighters on him! I'll get them for you right now. I won't smoke your cigarettes in vain!"
"Oh! Don't be so anxious!" As soon as Yang Mingzhi stretched out his hand to stop him, Abram rushed out with his two brothers.
They jumped out of the defense line and headed towards the battlefield littered with corpses. Abram did find cigarettes, and even raised them over his head happily. Now, many soldiers who were watching eagerly were moved by this sight! They pursed their lips, and some soldiers restrained themselves.
I couldn't resist the urge to search for those dead bodies.
This is definitely not what Yang Mingzhi wants.
Therefore, all his anger was vented on Abram.
Yang Mingzhi took the cigarette and roared: "Look at the good thing you did! Isn't it amazing to find smoke from a dead body? Now the brothers are ready to make a move! What if the enemy attacks at this time?!"
Abram giggled, and Yang Mingzhi was too lazy to scold him. He could only sigh: "You guys! A little cigarette makes you unable to restrain yourself. What if there are bottles of vodka in front of you?"
Abram's good-tempered behavior: "Maybe we don't even care about our position and go have a drink!"
"I think so!"
It's better to talk nonsense than to wait nervously. Besides, those soldiers, after they found something useful, they returned to the front one after another. If these people who left their posts without permission had some contributions, it was that they moved some fallen trees and built new buildings for them.
The machine gunner cleared some areas of fire.
The Soviet army was preparing for the next round of attack by the Luo army, but suddenly a sharp hissing sound came from the air!
What is this sound? It’s self-evident!
Yang Mingzhi suddenly became nervous and shouted: "The shells are coming! Get down!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the shelling had already begun.
The Romanian artillery received such an order, that is, each gun fired three rounds at a very rapid rate, and then fired five rounds at a rate of one round per minute.
Therefore, the Romanian army planned to fire 160 rounds of 75mm artillery shells.
These artillery shells are fired from field artillery, which has a limited firing angle and limited power. If the target is formed into a marching column, and the artillery shells from afar hit the team very accurately, the casualties will be very fatal. Yang
In the battle a few months ago, Mingzhi used captured German artillery to accidentally bomb the German marching column.
Such a result was almost pure luck. Luo Jun's luck was not good enough. The Soviet army's current formation took into account the need to avoid artillery fire, and through reasonable geometric arrangement, possible damage was minimized.
