Chapter 434: The Battle of Yellow Cliff Cave (3)
At the forefront of Huangya Cave, the seventh and eighth companies of the headquarters special service group were constantly shelled by the devil's mortars.
In the early hours of the morning, the devils first attacked the outpost position of the seventh company in the form of a sneak attack, but the soldiers of the seventh company who stepped on the mine were detected by the soldiers of the seventh company who were defending the position, and in the face of the attacking devils, the soldiers resolutely counterattacked.
Seeing the failure of the sneak attack, the devil turned to a frontal attack, but even if the devil continued to attack the position of the seventh company, he failed to successfully take the outpost position of the seventh company. In the end, the devil saw that he could not take the outpost position of the seventh company in a short time, so he could only choose to give up and continue the attack.
After dawn, the devils launched an attack again, this time they used heavy artillery and mountain artillery to extend their artillery fire, and at the same time, they concentrated mortars and constantly launched attacks on the outpost positions of the seventh company of the special service regiment. Considering that they had not been able to take this position in the previous attack, the devils used mortars for an hour before attacking again.
The soldiers of the Seventh Company hid in the position, and every fortification in Huangya Cave was established after the deputy chief of staff of Zuo Quan personally surveyed the terrain, and there were more than 300 fortifications in the entire Huangya Cave. The fortifications were built with great care, and it was impossible for the devil to destroy all these fortifications.
Staying in the fortifications, some soldiers observed the movements of the devils, and when the shelling of the devils stopped, the fighters showed their heads from the fortifications one after another. The fighters are well aware that with the devil's combat style, the cessation of shelling means that they are going to start an attack on the position!
In the face of the attack that the devils were about to launch, the soldiers of the seventh company did not have the slightest nervousness, they believed in the fortifications in front of them.
Although due to the limited materials, except for some key points of steel and concrete structures, the general fortifications, communication trenches, and fire points in the Yellow Cliff Cave are all made of gray stone, but due to the special terrain of the Yellow Cliff Cave, these fortifications have become more difficult to capture.
The outpost position defended by the Seventh Company was made of reinforced concrete, and it was precisely because of this that it was able to successfully hold out under the constant shelling of the devils. It's just that even if it is a reinforced concrete structure, there are still some gaps in the position of the Seventh Company, but these gaps cannot have much impact on the defensive position.
After the fortifications, the 7th Company had light and heavy machine gun positions with sufficient cover on all sides, coupled with a circular defense system of defensive positions combined with communication trenches, rock masses and obstacles, so that the 7th Company could receive rapid support.
It's just that because the area where the Yellow Cliff Cave is located is not small, when the bosses arranged the defensive position of the Yellow Cliff Cave, they divided the defense area into seven garrison areas, divided the defense, and coordinated operations, so that the support that the seventh company could get was not much.
The devils have so many troops, and in the attack, they don't just use the area where the seventh company is located as a breakthrough, in other areas, the devils also carry out tentative attacks, but the area where the seventh company is located is the focus of the devil's attack.
"Damn, devils learn to be smart! Luckily, we were prepared! The commander of the seventh company looked at the devil who was about to attack, and couldn't help but scold.
The soldiers looked towards the attacking devils, and could see more than 300 devils driving the goats they had snatched from the villagers, and they were proficient in the positions defended by the Seventh Company. Obviously, these devils have had enough of the mines, and they want to use these goats to detonate the minefield set up by the soldiers of the Seventh Company.
Unfortunately, the soldiers have long been on guard, in the south entrance of the Huangya Cave where the Seventh Company is responsible for defense, the soldiers have planted a lot of mines, but these mines are all "big mines", only people and horses will be detonated, and when the goats pass from the minefield, only a few mines are detonated.
There are still a large number of mines lying under the ground in the minefield, and when the devils attack, they will definitely be able to surprise the devils.
"Company commander, these devils are so cunning that they will find goats to destroy minefields."
"If we hadn't been prepared for it a long time ago, the mines we had worked so hard to lay would be easily destroyed by the devils, and at that time, the regiment commander would definitely teach us a hard lesson." A warrior spoke.
The commander of the seventh company laughed, took out his rolled dry cigarette, and took a puff gently, without the slightest nervousness on his face.
"Wait, after these devils find that the minefield has not been destroyed, they will definitely start clearing mines, let's not worry, wait until the devils are close before fighting, save a little bullets."
"Let's get our light machine guns ready, don't reveal the location of the heavy machine guns at first, I'm going to surprise these devils!" The commander of the seventh company said with a smile.
The soldiers couldn't help laughing when they saw their company commander so relaxed, and they didn't have too much fear of devils. These devils are very powerful, but no matter how powerful they are, what can they do? It's not like they have to find a way to cross this minefield, otherwise it will be impossible to take their base area!
Soon, the attacking devils rushed into the minefield, and not long after entering the minefield, several mines were detonated, and more than a dozen people were killed and injured by the devils. The devil commander forcibly ordered the devil to charge, but on the way to the devil's charge, mines were detonated one after another.
When these devils approached the defensive position of the seventh company fifty meters, the commander of the seventh company took the soldiers to take the initiative to shoot, and the firepower of the three light machine guns was not much, even if these devils were well-trained, they still continued to suffer casualties.
In the face of the not weak firepower of the Seventh Company, the devils chose to retreat, they simply could not rush to the position of the Seventh Company, let alone successfully take down the position of the Seventh Company! One of the most helpless things for the devils is that while dealing with the shooting of the soldiers of the Seventh Company, they also need to avoid accidentally stepping on a mine.
Among them, the mines caused great trouble to these soldiers, so that these devils could not devote themselves to the battle at all, and they were shot and killed by the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, and these devils could still accept it. But if you accidentally step on a mine and get killed by a mine, it will be unacceptable to the attacking devils.
After these devils withdrew, the devils launched shelling again, only this time they targeted the minefield at the south entrance of Huangya Cave. Under the constant shelling of the devils, most of the mines laid by the soldiers of the special task force on the road to the south entrance were detonated, and only a few mines remained.
"Boom"
Suddenly, a shell sounded on the mortar position of the devil, and one of the devil's mortars was successfully killed, and suddenly, the devil artillery who was shelling stopped his movements and quickly transferred with the mortar.
This shell came too suddenly, so that the devil artillery could not easily find the location of the artillery of the Eighth Route Army, and in the case of not knowing the location of the enemy, these devil artillery chose to be cautious, they did not want to be killed by the artillery of the Eighth Route Army.
"Chaozi, good job!" Three hundred meters behind the position of the Seventh Company, Wang Chao and several other instructors of the artillery school launched an artillery attack on the devils. Seeing that Wang Chao controlled the mortar and directly killed one of the devil's mortars, the instructors present couldn't help but praise him.
Wang Chao laughed, "Let's disperse, we each have a mortar in our hands, with everyone's technology, I believe we can all make a gain!" ”
"I hope that everyone will remember what President Liu taught us, look for opportunities, and move immediately after the shelling, without any hesitation. Don't look at how easy I took out a devil mortar, but this is a devil who has no slightest defense, otherwise I wouldn't have been so easy. ”
"Hopefully, after this battle is over, we can continue to meet in the artillery school! Take care! ”
Several instructors laughed one after another, and naturally understood what Wang Chao meant, killing devils is important, but it is still important to ensure their life safety. It's just that after stepping on the battlefield, no one knows if they will be able to get out of the battlefield alive.
"Everyone take care of themselves! Stay safe! ”
"Take care!"
“……”
After a brief goodbye, Wang Chao and the others dispersed, each followed by a soldier behind them, who was responsible for carrying them cannonballs. It is also because this is an arsenal that Wang Chao and others will have enough mortars and shells in their hands, otherwise it would be impossible for each person to have a mortar in other troops.
Wang Chao took a soldier to look for an opportunity to attack again, but he could see that after receiving an attack, the devil's artillery became extremely cautious, and they all pulled away to avoid being attacked by the artillery of the Eighth Route Army again.
At the same time, when the devil artillery shelled again, it was obvious that a part of the artillery was divided to observe the movements around it. With the ability of the devil artillery, as long as you can notice the movement of Wang Chao and the others when they are shelling, you can easily find the location of Wang Chao and the others, and then quickly launch an attack.
Commander Ou, who was commanding at the front line, couldn't help but sigh a little at the excellence of Wang Chao and others after noticing that a mortar was directly killed by the devil. Sure enough, being able to stay in the artillery school as an instructor by Liu Gen, Wang Chao and others are very capable, and it seems that their decision is right.
When Wang Chao and others came to report in front of Head Ou before, Head Ou was a little helpless, and he didn't know how to arrange Wang Chao and others. If Wang Chao and others were allowed to join the artillery of the special service group, then it would be easy to have a situation where the cooperation was not tacit enough, after all, Wang Chao and the others did not follow the artillery of the special service group for training.
What's more, Commander Ou also knew that in this battle, it was impossible for the artillery possessed by the special service regiment to concentrate on the devils to shell them, which would easily attract the attention of the devils, and then be destroyed by the devils' artillery in one fell swoop.
Commander Ou is well aware of his artillery capabilities, and he has also paid serious attention to them in his daily training. As the head of the special service group, Commander Ou has done a very good job, and he has a clear grasp of the combat effectiveness of all units in the special service group.
With their help, the artillery level of the special service regiment has been significantly improved, but compared with the devil artillery, there is still a certain gap, and the number of artillery pieces is incomparable.
Once an artillery battle with the devil artillery is launched, then it is impossible for the artillery of the special service regiment to hold out for too long, and it may take a few minutes to be killed. This is not that Commander Ou exaggerated the combat effectiveness of the devil artillery, but the devil artillery is so strong, and there are too many artillery that the devil can put into battle.
The devil's heavy artillery, mountain artillery, mortar, and infantry artillery all add up, and I am afraid there are dozens of them. If it weren't for the terrain advantage and a large number of fortifications in the Huangya Cave area, then Commander Ou wouldn't know how to fight this battle!
It is precisely because Commander Ou clearly knows the strength of the devil's artillery that he chooses to let Wang Chao and the others each carry a mortar to carry out guerrilla warfare against the devils, and only in this way can the ability of Wang Chao and others be brought into full play.
Regiment Commander Ou is also ready to disperse the artillery of the special service regiment, as long as Wang Chao and others can make certain achievements, then he will definitely let the artillery of the special mission do the same! As long as he can kill as many devils as possible and help the soldiers reduce the pressure on the devils, then Commander Ou is willing to do anything.
At the south entrance of Huangya Cave, after the shelling of the devils stopped, the devil's troops launched an attack again, due to the terrain, the devils could only attack in squadrons when attacking, which reduced the pressure on the fighters to defend a lot.
If a large number of devils can come up with a large number of troops, then even if the soldiers of the seventh company are all equipped with heavy machine guns, they will not be able to defend the position at all.
"Comrades! Get ready! The devil is coming soon! Heavy machine guns get ready! Wait for the devils to rush twenty meters in front of our position, and then shoot! ”
"Taking advantage of today's good opportunity, we will kill some more devils in seven rows!" The Seventh Company Commander shouted.
The soldiers of the Seventh Company looked serious, they stared at the devils who were constantly rushing towards the position, and they held their weapons tightly in their hands! More than a hundred people of the Seventh Company stayed in the position, and no sound came out, and in this case, the fighters did not have any idea of talking.
"Fuck it! Beat! Seeing the devil fifty meters before entering the position, the commander of the seventh company shouted.
The soldiers who had been prepared for a long time opened fire one after another, shooting at the target they had already observed, and because the special service group trained the soldiers very well, the soldiers did not panic in the slightest when shooting. During the battle, the fighters were exceptionally calm, and only fired after a short period of aiming.
Maybe the shooting accuracy of the soldiers can't be compared with the devils, but compared to ordinary troops, the soldiers of the special service group are already very good.
In the face of the continuous shooting of the Seventh Company, the attacking devils kept falling, and at the same time they continued to launch counterattacks, and the skillful tactical movements of the devils gave them a certain advantage when dealing with the shooting of the soldiers. When a devil found a bunker and counterattacked the soldiers of the Seventh Company in the position, the Seventh Company inevitably suffered casualties.
After ten minutes of shooting, the devil seized the gap between the firepower of the Seventh Company and rushed towards the position of the Seventh Company frantically, and soon entered 20 meters in front of the position of the Seventh Company.
"Heavy machine guns! Fire! Kill these shitty devils! ”
In the well-concealed bunker, the prepared heavy machine gunners immediately strafed the onrushing devils, and bullets flew out of the barrels of the heavy machine guns frantically, shooting at the approaching devils.
As soon as the devils who rushed to the front showed their excitement about successfully rushing to the position of the Seventh Company, they heard the sound of heavy machine guns, and the devils could see an extremely obvious line of fire coming towards them. Suddenly, the excitement on the faces of these devils disappeared, and only the horror on their faces remained.
It's a pity that the horror on their faces couldn't let these devils survive, and the bullets from the heavy machine guns hit and directly smashed the bodies of these devils, and they could no longer rush forward, and the casualties of the devils increased rapidly!
