Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Battle of Luvanka
Regarding the deployment of the German army in Luvanka, the two German devils who were captured before said very vaguely. They mentioned barracks and warehouses and asked what was in them, nothing more than ammunition, oil and food. These are all necessities for the army's operations, Yang Mingzhi can guess.
Zero o'clock had arrived, and the soldiers on the night vigil woke Yang Mingzhi up.
He rubbed his eyes, unscrewed the kettle and drank some water, and then looked at his watch, it was already 0.5 p.m. "It's time to wake everyone up!" He ordered all the sentries to wake up the fighters and call all the company commanders to him.
It's a new day after zero o'clock, how is the war situation in Ukraine Yang Mingzhi has no time to worry, in front of him is the town of Luvanka, and tonight's sneak attack must give a fatal blow.
Yang Mingzhi's characteristic anti-tank battalion formation was made in accordance with the squad organization of the future PLA, with ten people in one squad and three combat groups. Three squads formed a platoon, and of the 500 people who participated in the attack on Luvanka, the platoon commander was only a dozen or so.
Yang Mingzhi sent the order to them, and it was clear at a glance how to attack in a while.
"Artilleryman, I order you to hide in the woods, adjust the ruler and wait for the opportunity to cover the fire."
"Yes, the artillery platoon understands."
"Second Company Commander, your task is to lead your men to attack the enemy's camp, they are very obvious, where there is no warehouse, it must be their camp, according to the pattern of attacking Moziri. You have to shoot the enemy unceremoniously and throw all the grenades. ”
The commander of the second company nodded, but he was also a little puzzled: "Battalion commander, the strength of our second company is only more than 200 people, is it too weak?" ”
"You have a point." Yang Mingzhi patted the shoulder of the second company commander, Ye Fugeni, "This is a difficult task. I led three companies to attack the enemy's warehouse, and when you hear the explosion, you must charge quickly. Remember, all of us are not allowed to shout Ulla when we charge! ”
Yang Mingzhi's battle plan was very simple, two fists attacked, the task of the second company Yevgeny was mainly to kill and injure the enemy's living forces, so that the soldiers exchanged some weapons, and the soldiers of the second company were equipped with more submachine guns and grenades.
Yang Mingzhi will directly lead more than 200 people of the third company to directly touch the enemy's warehouse, and he most hopes to attack the enemy's warehouse where diesel and gasoline are stored, blow it up and burn it in one go, and the purpose of the whole battle is almost the same.
He had said the basics of what he had to say, and the battle would begin at one o'clock in the morning, and all the soldiers were immediately preparing for battle.
At this time, Yang Mingzhi instructed the commander of the second company again: "After the battle begins, you must not fall in love with the battle, and after setting fire, you must withdraw from the battle within ten minutes." Remember, the battle was fought with the aim of destroying supplies from enemy warehouses. ”
The order was given, and all the mortars were already adjusting their firing angles. The sky is still cloudy, and occasionally the moon will emerge from the clouds. The mortars adjusted the ruler to 800 meters of the maximum firing range, which was used for cover when the troops retreated.
Yang Mingzhi looked at his watch, time passed little by little, and his fighters were ready to go.
Finally, the hour and minute hands reached one o'clock in the morning. Yang Mingzhi waved his fist: "Fighters, start acting!" ”
In this way, more than 500 soldiers hunched their backs, and everyone advanced according to the offensive mode of the three-three system. The second and third companies are going in different directions, and the battle will be officially started by Yang Mingzhi, and first they will have to solve the first obstacle - barbed wire.
Yang Mingzhi was very careful, and he saw that there was also a very primitive alarm system on these barbed wires, that is, canned food boxes.
"What a terrible thing, what about the sappers? A vise cuts the wires. Note! Do not touch the can. ”
His advice was necessary, and the sappers were extremely careful. The German barbed wire was cut through several gaps, and everyone remained silent after the success.
Yang Mingzhi was disgusted by the searchlights of the enemy towers, which shone aimlessly around the barbed wire. Yang Mingzhi, like the soldiers, buried his head in the ground and waited for the light to leave.
"Alright, now the commandos are moving forward!"
Yang Mingzhi ordered the most capable fighters to attack, and of course he claimed to be one of the best.
Carambola can't influence her husband's decision, he is her husband, and he is her own commander, and her husband's order is a military order. She had to stay with Natasha, aiming her gun at the soldier by the searchlight, and shooting immediately if there was a situation.
It's not just snipers who deal with searchlights, Yang Mingzhi's monkey version of the rocket weapon shooter has already stuffed rockets into the launch tube, and the radiant hands are waiting for an opportunity to light the fuse, and they aim at the tower.
Yang Mingzhi led more than 20 shrewd and capable commandos into the German-controlled town. They were mainly armed with submachine guns and grenades, and a dagger was even more handy. The people selected by Yang Mingzhi are very good at fighting, and many guys can easily break the enemy's neck, which is very violent.
More than twenty people were sneaking around in the night, and they had already touched the vicinity of the warehouse.
The road was actually very safe, there were German patrols passing by, but there were no Soviet soldiers hiding in the shadows at all. As for the sporadic haunts, Yang Mingzhi did not hesitate.
Five lone German soldiers were killed, all of whom had their throats slit and were stabbed in the heart. The bloodied warrior dragged the corpse away and threw it into a dark corner.
Yang Mingzhi was very satisfied. "Okay comrades, we will use this warehouse as the first point of attack, whatever it is, we will set this fire."
The warehouse was a huge wooden building that used to store timber before the war, but now, Yang Mingzhi is ecstatic, there are a large number of gasoline drums stored here, and there is oil in the barrels.
In the warehouse, five or six German soldiers were playing cards under the lamps, and they were talking and laughing. Yang Mingzhi clearly saw that these people were still drinking.
"Stupid people, soldiers, go out in a squad to kill these people, you have to move quickly."
At this moment, Yang Mingzhi very much hoped that the troops would have some silencing weapons, so that there would be no need for hand-to-hand combat with the commandos.
These ten warriors almost crawled past, and the next second they suddenly killed. The Germans had their throats cut without the slightest reaction. Although some commotion was created, it did not seem to attract the attention of other German troops.
Then, Yang Mingzhi ordered to start with these oils. The soldiers put down a few barrels, and the pungent smell of gasoline came to their faces, and the soldiers let the gasoline flow, and the more it flowed, the better.
A large number of gasoline barrels were put down, and soon a large amount of gasoline was flowing here in the warehouse. Yang Mingzhi estimated that these pungent smells would attract a large number of Germans, and the assault team quickly retreated.
A patrol team, perhaps due to the breeze, blew away the volatile gases, but they saw a strange liquid on the ground. One soldier swallowed it and asked carefully, concluding that it was gasoline. Oh no, something must have happened at the oil depot.
The team didn't think much of it, and they ended up meeting the retreating commandos. Before they could react, Yang Mingzhi immediately ordered to open fire.
The gunfire remembered that this was a signal, and the ambushed second company began to attack.
Yang Mingzhi personally picked up a grenade and pulled the fuse.
"Granada! Withdraw the whole army! ”
The fighters knew what to expect, and everyone retreated like crazy. There was an explosion over there, and the gasoline was ignited. Yang Mingzhi and the commandos ran to the barbed wire fence like crazy, and everyone immediately fell down.
A huge deflagration took place, the sound was very dull, and the earth trembled. At this moment, Yang Mingzhi found that the existence of himself and the army was a mistake, the deflagrated earth was like purgatory, there were combs everywhere, the warehouse was already on fire, and the huge heat was scorching everyone.
"Damn! We are too close to the battlefield. Berekov, you are always so crazy! Yerentina was simply swearing.
Yang Mingzhi was neither humble nor arrogant, and the deflagration would continue, and he ordered the troops to start moving.
Soon, the German town of Luvanka was in chaos. The commander of the second company was replicating what happened in Mojiri, where the German soldiers, who were aware of the accident, were still dressed, and the soldiers with submachine guns in their hands broke down the door, screaming and firing the 75 rounds of ammunition away.
On the sniper's side, star fruit and Natasha immediately shoot at the sentry in the tower, and the girls see someone falling from above. The bazooka was also launched, and the co-shooter, after lighting the fuse, waited a few seconds for the rocket to launch, blowing up the searchlight.
The battlefield was actually bright enough, and the oil depot was so bright that if it was daytime, you could see billowing black smoke.
Yang Mingzhi led the Third Company to wreak havoc in Luvanka Town, setting fires everywhere. He was really worried that the fuel in the deflagration would ignite the German ammunition depot and the consequences would be terrible if the heavy artillery shells exploded.
He looked at his watch, and the battle had been going on for eight minutes. "It's time to retreat!"
The trumpeters are not as good as the standard-bearers on weekdays, because their commanders prefer to attack quietly, and the flag language is more important.
In the chaos, people seemed to hear the call to retreat, and in order to make the retreat go smoothly, Yang Mingzhi ordered the soldiers to pass the message directly to the second company that was on a killing spree.
Thus, at the cost of some lives, the attacking troops retreated. Behind them was a blazing battlefield, and the artillerymen in the forest could already see the retreating troops.
They chose to open fire immediately, and all 30 shells were fired, so that the German soldiers who reacted later had another artillery feast.
Yang Mingzhi and his men reacted very quickly, and as long as they retreated into the woods, they could do anything. Everyone ran 600 meters into the woods, and then everyone continued to retreat the same way. They desperately fled, and Yang Mingzhi gave an order to everyone: "The enemy's ammunition depot is there, thousands of heavy artillery shells, if this is martyred, if we can't get out of the battlefield, we will be wiped out." “
Therefore, everyone has the joy of victory, and they are also eager to flee for their lives.
Suddenly, the earth shook, and a huge hot wind hit, and many warriors were blown away. A large number of leaves fell, and Yang Mingzhi almost fell to the ground.
The soldiers were stunned one by one, there was a beautiful strange flower in the distance, a dark red mushroom cloud rose into the sky, and it was a huge explosion just now.
Yang Mingzhi sat cross-legged on the ground and laughed loudly like a fool. Yerentina couldn't help but laugh when she saw him like this. The fighters knew what was going on, the explosion of the German ammunition depot had finally happened, and just now it was the huge shock wave and heat wave.
I'm afraid the German soldiers are going to suffer heavy losses.
Yang Mingzhi laughed for a while and looked at Yelenkina excitedly. "Well, we're worthy of Kirponos in this battle."
"Worthy, worthy. Berekov, you are a hero! You've got to keep getting medals! ”
"Okay, the medal, now we have to continue withdrawing! It's still too dangerous here. “
In the middle of the night, the fighters retreated slowly, and the radioman kept trying to communicate with the company, and finally completed the communication.
The commander of the first company also reported the good news, he saw the scene in the distance, and now Yang Mingzhi did not say much, he only gave an order, and the whole army advanced to the radio signal relay station outside the swamp, and then returned to the swamp.
