Four hundred and fortieth chapters luxury firepower
Even more unexpectedly, Yevlov calmly pointed out: "I must have passed the position where you blocked the 715th Division on the marching route. The five field guns were not brought back to the swamp. I took them with the ammunition. These heavy
The weapons can be pulled by the jeep, they are in the team.? ? "
"That means we still have field artillery to use?" Yang Mingzhi already looked excited.
"Yes, there are still a hundred shells. In addition, the recoilless cannon shells I provided can also greatly enhance the firepower of our army. I think it is more appropriate to use artillery fire to blast it before the general attack!"
"Yes, I think my plan needs to be slightly adjusted."
The soldiers prepared their weapons one after another, and the commanders of each battalion explained their tasks. The soldiers all knew that today was most likely the day of the decisive battle.
Yang Mingzhi hopes to kill the enemy in one go, preferably destroying the enemy's defense line within a few hours. Now Yevlov has brought a lot of heavy equipment, especially field artillery. The next battle will follow the old Soviet method, first
Wouldn't it be nice to have an artillery attack?
The headquarters was immediately established, and the chief and deputy commanders of the 284th Guards Division gathered together. At this moment, both of them had a Gold Star Medal on their chests. Yevlov received this honor for his meritorious service in defending against the enemy as the commander of the 284th Division, but he himself felt
I feel ashamed of myself.
So this annihilation battle is a huge opportunity for him to gain merit, and he will be more confident in taking the main attack direction.
He saw his deputy division commander and chief of staff Berekov, and took a pencil to fine-tune the offensive route on the map, and then asked about it.
Yang Mingzhi also explained with a smile: "I have prepared a road for the enemy's retreat in the forest. They will not be stupid to advance in the forest. They must flee eastward along the open space between the forests. If someone enters the forest, I will
The enemy just drove them back. When it comes to forest warfare, the enemy has no experience in this, but our army is simply the only strong one in the entire Soviet military system."
Yevlov nodded calmly, he was still very concerned about his frontal combat.
"The people I lead now are mainly militiamen, and there are more than a thousand female soldiers among them. I know that our women are not inferior to men in fighting, but I am still worried about whether the girls who are fighting for the first time can complete the task well.
.”
Yang Mingzhi rolled his eyes at him and said: "From the inherent prejudice point of view, women are indeed embarrassing. But with tanks and artillery to help, I think our female soldiers will fight bravely. You just need to look at their expressions
, and the performance of Camp Joshua and Camp Sashanova, you know our women are very strong!”
Yevlov chuckled, "If the two new battalions are really as brave as their comrades, I will have nothing to fear."
"Courage is one thing, and tactics are also very particular." Yang Mingzhi said: "When attacking, the tanks open the way in front, and the infantry lines up in columns and hides behind the tanks. The enemy does not have recoilless rifles, but they may have RPGs.
.So the front armor of the tank piles some sacks filled with soil and stops moving forward after marching to a certain distance from the position. The remaining tasks are left to the infantry."
"Okay, this tactic sounds effective, I will notify Chekov immediately."
Yang Mingzhi continued: "Comrade Division Commander's attack determines this battle to a large extent. We are bound to win. If you fight well, you can force the enemy to abandon their position and turn around and flee in a short period of time. Therefore, Doronin's artillery and most of the
The recoilless rifle will also be yours."
"Then you don't need these heavy weapons?" Yevlov asked in surprise.
"I need to be mobile and flexible. It is enough to equip some small-caliber mortars and RPGs. For example, I am equipping the German items captured in previous battles. You also know that thing, it shoots very fast, but its accuracy is much worse. Compared with
The performance of the Japanese grenade is much better."
"I know, Legr36, 50mm caliber, we used it during the bloody battle in Kuta Town. The maximum range is only 5oo meters. How many do you have with this thing?"
"I have twenty! Each one has twenty shells when spread out." Yang Mingzhi smiled very confidently.
Roshakov, who had been listening in at this time and was in charge of an offensive line, also agreed, "I also captured the German 50 mm cannon and 80 mm. The enemy threw away a lot of supplies and ammunition. I just
I guess Comrade Deputy Division Commander will definitely continue large-scale operations. The transportation of ammunition from the rear is too slow, and the captured ammunition will be put into combat immediately. The amount of artillery shells I have is twice that of the Deputy Division Commander."
"That's great!" An excited Yang Mingzhi patted Rosakov on the shoulder. "Now our army's firepower has been greatly strengthened. Even a frontal attack can destroy the enemy, but after the artillery blasts the infantry skirmisher line charge, there are still casualties.
It's too big, what we have to do is to wipe out the enemy with minimal casualties. Now that we have strong firepower support, coupled with smarter tactics, the battle will begin today!"
"Then let's fight! My soldiers can't wait!" Rosakov said.
Seeing this, Yevlov knew that Yang Mingzhi was determined. He stood up and said, "I agree to start a full-scale war today."
"Okay, the attack will start at 12 noon. Let's start preparations immediately. First, let's compare the watches."
The offensive route has already been planned, and then it is a matter of time to attack from all directions. Yevlov took the lead in attacking, and the artillery attack began at 11:30, and the main attack was at 12:00. The troops of Roshakov and Yang Mingzhi started from the other two
direction, starting at 12:15.
All battalion commanders were urgently gathered, and combat orders were immediately issued.
Their faces were full of excitement, but also a little nervous before the battle. In short, they felt very complicated.
As for the soldiers, they all know that they are making history. This battle that has been fought for a long time has gathered all the combat power of the 284th Division. The next battle is a decisive battle, and even if it is sacrificed, it is worth it.
As a Soviet soldier, it is common to face death, even if it means death, it is meaningful. After seeing that the army has added various new artillery pieces, and even tanks, the soldiers' self-confidence has increased unprecedentedly, and the casualty ratio in this battle is destined to be small.
a lot of.
Yevlov brought new ammunition, and Roshakov distributed the captured ammunition to the soldiers equipped with German machine guns. The RPG shooters who lost their projectiles replenished their ammunition, and the recoilless gun team also gained great confidence.
It was already half past nine, and Balzen's reconnaissance company and radio were still watching the enemy's every move, taking care of the enemies who rashly entered the forest to search. The assassination was silent, but it also began to arouse Wolf's vigilance.
Because the people who went to investigate last night hadn't come back before dawn. There was something wrong with the magnetic field they got here and they got lost?
Wolfe was very worried that the Soviets would catch up with him and fight him. The scouts he sent disappeared for several hours, and attempts to contact the radio they carried were silent. This was really an ominous omen.
So as Balzen used his telescope to detect the enemy's frequent personnel movements, he quickly reported: "The enemy may have noticed something, and they have begun to strengthen their defenses."
Yang Mingzhi realized that the enemy might be aware of the existence of the Soviet army, or was it the commander's sixth sense? In short, they were taking action, so he must take action too.
Yang Mingzhi and Rosakov immediately took action. They led their troops to say goodbye to Yevlov. All the soldiers marched in the forest in a hurry march towards their destination.
The battle situation always develops suddenly, and Yevlov has adapted to the "fast pace" of his old friend. He finally gathered his troops, and more than two thousand people began to advance along with the tank troops.
Only Doronin remained where he was. As a veteran artilleryman, he was manning five field guns. The ballistic trajectories had been calculated and the shells were flattened next to each gun position. A total of fifty artillerymen were ready to pour out firepower on the enemy positions.
.
He finally assured Yevlov: "The radio station has been prepared. We will fully obey the instructions. Wherever you point, our artillery shells will hit there."
"What I want is your confidence!" Yevlov saluted with a smile, and then moved forward thinking about the enemy's position. (To be continued.) 8
