Chapter 266 The Battle of Rice Ridge (7)
Attack, there is still a distance of more than a hundred meters, and they can't attack at all, and if they go any further, what awaits them will be a rain of grenades.
The wing commander had no choice but to give the order to retreat.
The captain of the Great Righteous Wing was born in the army and participated in all major wars. He calmed down and thought about it, as far as the terrain of Miling is concerned, it is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack, and with his own wing, without the support of the aviation unit, artillery wing, and armored fighting vehicle unit, it does not mean that he cannot capture Miling. If it is really captured, his own wing will also be disabled, how can he continue the battle below in the future.
He carefully observed the topography of Miling, and on the left flank of Miling, there was a mountain about the same height as Miling, but this hill was full of cliffs, and the mountain was full of rocks, and there was hardly a single tree in sight.
If you really occupy this mountain, you can cut off the back road of Miling and surround Miling, wouldn't Miling be self-defeating.
However, there are advantages and disadvantages, this mountain is not easy to climb, if the Chinese army really put a company or a platoon on the mountain, its own troops will only be killed.
The weight of the two benefits is the heavier, and the lesser of the two evils. After weighing it repeatedly, Dayi still felt that this risk was worth taking, in case it succeeded, it would be better than really attacking Miling Mountain!
He called Squadron Leader Oshima over and said to him, "Squadron Leader Oshima, I have given you an important task to lead your squadron to capture this rocky hill on the left flank of Miling. ”
Squadron Leader Oshima looked at the stone hill on the left flank of Miling and said, "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, you told us to attack this hill, but I don't think there is a road, how can we climb without a road?" ”
The captain of the Great Righteous Wing lowered his face and said: "What are we doing in the Imperial Japanese Army, we have to go without a road, and we have to go up the cliffs." We are just going to take the road that no one has gone before! Go and complete tasks that no one has done before! ”
Squadron Leader Oshima is a little angry, I will also say such an official word, you are forcing us to go to a dead end! However, when it comes to the reprimand of the chief, there is only unconditional obedience to the large island that is separated by a level.
He gave a military salute, then stood on his legs and said, "Hary! ”
The Captain of the Righteous Wing said to Oshima again: "In order to support your attack, the artillery of our wing will be ready to listen to your call. ”
"Harb! Thank you so much to the co-captain. "When Squadron Leader Oshima was about to die, I would like to thank the Wing Captain for his show of love.
The captain of the Oshima squadron had no choice but to look for a climbing master in the army first. Fortunately, there were more than a dozen soldiers from the mountains in the squadron, and some of them had worked as special forces, and they were also very good at climbing. Oshima told the squadron to prepare more ropes, bring weapons and ammunition supplies, and began to march towards Stone Mountain......
In the 320 regiment, there are many pairs of eyes watching the little devil's every move. More than 100 people of the devils marched towards Stone Mountain, and they had already been seen by the scouts, and they quickly reported to the regiment and Zou Jiyan's battalion.
Zou Jiyan said to Han Xing: "The little devil is red water coming out of his eyes - bad blood." To be honest, there is only one platoon on the stone mountain, and if it is broken by the devils, it will be extremely disadvantageous to Miling. ”
Han Xing said: "This stone mountain must be held, if the stone mountain is lost, the back road of Miling will also be cut off by the little devil." I see, let's go to the Southern Expeditionary Army! ”
Zou Jiyan looked at the stone mountain, frowned and said: "The stone mountain doesn't even have a road, you have to use a rope to climb up, you go up, how do you get up?" ”
"No matter how you go, you have to do it, this is a battleground for soldiers. Let's figure it out! Han Xing said.
Zou Jiyan had no choice but to say: "Thanks to the Southern Expeditionary Army, we have solved another problem." If you can, you can get up, and if you really can't get up, don't force it. ”
Han Xing called Zhang Xiaosan and said to him: "Battalion Commander Zhang, you can temporarily assist Battalion Commander Zou to defend Miling." A company of Wu Xiaoming and I went to Stone Mountain for a trip. ”
Zhang Xiaosan looked at the stone mountain and said, "Commander Han, there is not even a road on the mountain, how can you get there?" By the time we went up, this squadron of Little Japan would have gone up long ago. ”
Han Xing criticized him and said: "It's really a big girl who wants to eat--die-hard." If you can't go up, you have to go up, how did Zou Jiyan's platoon go up. ”
Zhang Xiaosan had to agree: "You're right!" However, he was also wondering in his heart, although Wu Xiaoming's company, although it was from a special combat team, it was a lot of effort to climb this stone mountain, not to mention that there was a Commander Han who was in the way.
Commander Han's three-legged cat's kung fu, I really don't dare to compliment, when you finally climb up, isn't the cucumber dish also cold!
Han Xing didn't care what Zhang Xiaosan thought, but he had an old idea in his heart, and he shouted to the side: "Director Zhang!" ”
Zhang Zuogan, the chief of operations, has been idle for a long time, and when he came to Miling, he was just like a traveling tourist, others were fighting, and he was watching the excitement. Others are resting, and he is still resting. Han Xing had already instructed him that your task is to protect the radio station and keep in touch with the Southern Expeditionary Army and the Air Force at all times.
said that it was a connection with the Air Force, but in fact, it was just a microphone for Han Xing. Only Han Xing can command the Air Force.
"Here!" Zhang Zuogan finally waited for Han Xing to summon him, and hurriedly ran to him.
"Quickly contact Xu Da and ask him to send a helicopter squadron to Miling quickly. 3 on the top of Miling Mountain, and asked the helicopter to take us up the stone mountain one by one. ”
"Yes!" Zhang Zuogan shouted and immediately used the radio to contact Xu Da.
Zhang Xiaosan was overjoyed when he heard it, so that's the case! I just thought about the artificial climbing, and I forgot about the helicopter. Han Xing also has a helicopter squadron in his hand, waiting for Han Xing's orders at any time.
There is another necessary detail, that is, Han Xing told Zou Jiyan: "Battalion Commander Zou, wait a while, our helicopter is coming, inform your troops, it is from the Southern Expeditionary Army, don't shoot in the air!" ”
Zou Jiyan didn't understand, stared at him and asked, "Helicopter?" What does a helicopter do? ”
Han Xing didn't explain too much to him, but said: "Helicopters are planes that go straight up and down, not airfields, but troop carriers, and you will know after a while." At the moment, you must not air defense, that is our own plane. ”
Zou Jiyan had no choice but to give the order first, shouting to everyone: "Wait a while, our own helicopter will come." Everyone, pay attention, put down the muzzle, don't get hurt by mistake! ”
In less than 10 minutes, 12 helicopters flew in from the western sky, huge propellers fanning the air, and the motors on the planes were buzzing, forming a long snake formation, flying quickly towards this side.
Zou Jiyan was stunned, and all the officers and soldiers of Zou Jiyan's battalion were stunned. What kind of plane is this? I've never seen an airplane before, just like a big dragonfly, with a big wing on its back, a small tail and a big belly, needless to say, it can hold a lot of things.
Zou Jiyan had a lot to ask, but he couldn't ask a word at this time. He didn't want to delay the opportunity to appreciate himself, where would he still have the mouth to ask this and that.
Of the 12 helicopters, 9 are on standby behind the mountains in Mileing. There were 3 helicopters, flying towards the top of the hill of Miling, they came to the top of the mountain, suspended more than ten meters in the air, and hung down a rope from the plane to climb the ladder.
"Company Commander Wu, go!" Han Xing issued an order to Wu Xiaoming.
Wu Xiaoming shouted to Li Dazhong: "One row, up!" ”
The guard battalion, all of whom were from the special operations battalion, of course, did not have a problem with the rope ladder of more than ten meters, and one by one, under the leadership of Li Dazhong, climbed up along the rope one by one.
Soon, all three platoons climbed up the rope to the Z-8 helicopter. Zhang Zuogan followed Han Xing's side and asked, "Commander Han, what should I do?" ”
"What to do, where I go, where you follow, and that radio. Does this need to be asked? ”
Zhang Zuogan shouted happily: "Yes!" "With this radio station, as well as the telegraph operator who operated the radio, he also got on the helicopter with Han Xing.
The helicopter put away the rope ladder, then increased the throttle and flew towards the stone mountain not far away.
Looking at the helicopter that was gradually moving away, Zou Jiyan opened his mouth and asked Zhang Xiaosan: "Is this an airplane, I look at it, your Southern Expeditionary Army seems to have gone up to the sky one by one along the rope." Is this a war, why do I think you have all become immortals one by one, going to heaven and earth! What's going on with this helicopter? How can you stay in the air and not move? ”
Zhang Xiaosan was so knowledgeable at this time, he used the knowledge he had learned with Han Xing to boast to Zou Jiyan about how to do it.
Zou Jiyan asked again: "What should I do when I get to the stone mountain, do you jump down one by one?" ”
Zhang Xiaosan said with a big grin: "Look you're stupid, you won't fall to your death if you jump!" Just like before, slowly climb down the ladder. ”
Zou Jiyan shook his head and said, "No, no, I think your Southern Expeditionary Army is quite capable, jump off the plane to make sure it's okay." ”
Miling is not far from the stone mountain, and the Z-8 helicopter has a maximum speed of 275 km/h, which is of course in the blink of an eye. The defenders on the stone mountain had already seen the situation on Miling's side and knew that this was the Southern Expeditionary Army coming to support them, so they hurriedly vacated a large area as if they were greeting the great god.
In such a complex terrain environment, the helicopter did not dare to land, so it was suspended in the air of the stone mountain.
The wind on the top of the mountain is very strong, and the stone mountain is a cliff, and the plane is suspended on the top of the stone mountain, if you look down, it is like standing on the tip of a needle.
At this time, who is the biggest enemy, it is not the Japanese devils, but the fear in his heart.
Although the guard battalion was all from special combat personnel, they were all frightened and terrified, and they couldn't wait to fly out of their bodies. But one by one, they overcame the enemies in their hearts, controlled the nerves that were about to be broken, and slowly came down.
