Chapter 039: Rush the army into the urn

The fortifications built by Ma Yao and the people have become very strong after being reinforced by the guard regiment. After several years of bombing, the Tang army's ability to repair fortifications has become more and more powerful.

The artillery preparation before the attack only injured a few people, and this time, Yi Fei's men had no way to solve the enemy's artillery position.

Last time, he was able to take out the artillery positions of the Yamada Corps, but on the one hand, the enemy's attack surface was too large and not thick enough, so Yi Fei was able to calmly arrange and destroy the six artillery positions arranged on one line in one fell swoop.

The current Miyamoto Legion, as well as some temporarily mobilized garrison troops, had 150,000 men, although some were lost along the way, but no less than 140,000.

With so many hedgehogs gathered together, there is no time for customers at all. The place where the legion attacked, there was only one point in the mountain pass of Daweng Town, and the artillery was arranged in the middle of the whole army, unless Yi Fei personally made a stealth move, no one else could kill the artillery of the Miyamoto Legion.

At this time, Yi Fei was still arranging tasks for his subordinates, arranging tactics for each subordinate according to the situation he saw at night.

In two hours, the 250,000-strong army led by the chief of staff will attack from the rear of Miyamoto's corps.

The task of the killers is to act as snipers and take out the enemy's officers and mortar positions, and as for the enemy's artillery positions, it is still the task of Yi Fei.

This time to drive out the Miyamoto Army, General Du Ji assigned 200,000 troops to the chief of staff, and he only brought 80,000 people to cut off the back road of the Austrian ~ army.

According to Yi Fei's plan, they must drive the Miyamoto Legion into the ancient city of Daweng Town before dawn tomorrow, otherwise, the Austrian ~ Army behind will work with the Gongnen Army to sandwich these 200,000 people in the middle.

The guard regiment is indeed elite, and after replacing the captured equipment, in addition to the artillery, their firepower is even stronger than that of Miyamoto's corps. Miyamoto's regiment launched two battalion-sized charges, both of which were easily repulsed.

After another baptism of artillery fire. The Guards Regiment relied on the fortifications, and after repulsing the charge of one regiment, it withdrew from its position along the communication trenches.

with them with. There was also Ma Yao's company, and when the cannon outside the mountain pass sounded, Yamada organized an army and launched an attack on the bunker on the cliff.

It's just a bunker set up by Yi Fei, it's too ingenious. Unless you are facing the gap in the bunker, you have to hit the bullet right through the gap to potentially injure the people inside.

The three rounds of attacks outside were not over, and the attacks on Yamada's side died down. Three days of military rations, to hold on for ten days, the soldiers would have been hungry and had no strength, if it weren't for the reinforcements coming, they wouldn't even have the best to attack.

Sixty heavy machine guns, completely free of dead spots blockade. No amount of people will die enough. Having lost more than a thousand men, Yamada wisely abandoned the offensive.

He reported the situation to Miyamoto, but it did not cause Miyamoto to be dissatisfied. Those bunkers are all defending in the direction of the big urn town, as long as the Miyamoto army breaks the outside defense, the bunkers on the cliff will become decorations.

It's just that they didn't expect that Yamada's attack force had just withdrawn, and the Tang soldiers who were guarding the bunker also gave up the bunker and withdrew.

The guard regiment just walked on the front foot. The overwhelming artillery fire covered the entire position, and the deputy regiment commander Ye Tianlong smacked his tongue and said: "Fortunately, we withdrew in time, otherwise." In this round of artillery fire, I don't know how many brothers will be killed. ”

The staff officer beside him smiled and said, "The plan above is too godly, how can they know that the first two rounds of artillery fire will not cause us much loss?" ”

Ye Tianlong said mysteriously: "Our chief manager has found a military god to be a senior staff, and we will fight so happily in the past few days." Anticipate the pattern of the enemy's actions. For him, it's just a trifle. ”

"Oh, who is that high staff, and how did the chief manager find it?"

"I'll tell you later, now we have to hurry up and take over the position, lest Miyamoto run away!" Ye Tianlong didn't want to say more, so he said a perfunctory sentence and walked forward quickly.

The staff officer said depressedly: "Is it interesting to always sell Guanzi like this, after this battle, I will ask someone else!" ”

Opening the passage to the town of the Great Urn, Miyamoto heard the rumbling sound of cannon before he could rejoice......

No one needs to report it, Miyamoto also realized that the Tang Army is coming. He immediately made a decision and ordered the troops in front to step up the clearing of the passage into Daweng Town and clear out the remnants of the enemy. The rear detachment defended on the spot, ordered the artillery, immediately looked for the enemy's artillery positions.

According to Yi Fei's theory of infantry and artillery coordinated operations, the offensive of the Tang Army was very fierce, and Miyamoto's army was already unstable and did not build fortifications at all.

The Datang army was completely charging on the explosive point of the cannonball, and before the soldiers in Benzhou had recovered from the artillery fire, the bayonets of the Datang soldiers had already penetrated into their bodies.

The emergency calls from the rear one after another confused Miyamoto, when did the combat effectiveness of the Tang army become so strong?

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and Miyamoto was still urging his artillery to knock out the artillery of the Tang Army as soon as possible, when he heard an earth-shattering loud noise in the direction of the artillery position.

The officers of the entire temporary command headquarters were shaken to the ground. Immediately after, the shock wave of the explosion blew the tent of the headquarters directly away, and also wrapped up two communication soldiers who did not have time to lie down.

Miyamoto stood up in shock, shook his head, shouted orders, asked everyone to find communication equipment nearby, and ordered the whole army to enter the town of Daweng.

He also had no choice, the offensive of the Tang Army was so fierce, and the artillery position exploded inexplicably, just looking at the movement just now, you can know that the artillery is over.

According to past experience, the Tang army, which can make its own soldiers unable to resist and participate in the attack, is definitely several times its own.

Without a firepower advantage, and being at a disadvantage in numbers, if you don't retreat, you can only end up with the annihilation of the whole army.

When the order to retreat was given, Miyamoto was still very sober and asked the troops to take the food with them. And the troops that were attacked in the rear had to hold on and cover the smooth retreat of the main forces.

The quality of the Honshu army was still good, and the destruction of artillery positions was equivalent to the flowering of the center, but it did not make them lose their fighting spirit.

The Tang army only attacked smoothly on the periphery, and after the panic period of the sudden attack passed, the defense of the Benzhou army also became tenacious.

In order to reduce losses, the chief of staff ordered that it would be a victory to slow down the offensive, open the way with artillery fire, and force the enemy into the town of Daweng.

On the battlefield, the two sides formed a rare tacit understanding, and at ten o'clock in the morning, most of Miyamoto's army entered the town of Daweng.

Because the walls of the mountain pass were blown down by the Miyamoto army who was eager to enter, they occupied the position of the guard regiment and blocked the Tang army outside the mountain pass. (To be continued.) )
