Chapter 201 A Different Charge
Chapter 201 A Different Charge
"Boom ......" With a burst of explosions, hundreds of 'gates' and various artillery pieces on the five heights roared in unison, plus the grenades, blasting canisters and explosives bags thrown out by the soldiers...... It was a blast in front of the position, and the roaring 'chaos' sound was like the fire of a cannonball.
However, although these explosions are numerous and dense, in fact, only mortars with a long range can reach Gushuikou, which is two kilometers away. It's ridiculous that the Vietnamese troops don't know anything at all, and the hilly valley in front of our army is full of unfinished gunsmoke, so they all crowded towards the valley mouth one by one.
&í, if we were in this situation in this valley full of gunsmoke, we might not be as confused as they are. Especially for someone like me, who has a very poor sense of direction......
So, in my binoculars, I only saw that the valley mouth was crowded with people, a few mortar shells could always set off a bloody storm and bring a burst of screams, and even those tanks turned their heads and squeezed into the canyon to fight with the infantry, and the valley mouth was crowded and 'chaotic' for a while.
&í Withdrew in the fog, leaving only a new corpse and a pool of red blood at the mouth of the valley. The warriors stopped what they were doing, and then were silent for a few moments before bursting into cheers.
Although the Vietnamese army had lost its troops on the wall of fire cast by our army's artillery fire, many soldiers were shocked by their 'spirit' spirit of bravely taking the lead regardless of life and death, and at this time, our army suddenly lost artillery assistance and had to directly face those Vietnamese troops, so most of the soldiers were a little bottomless in their hearts.
In fact, people are like this, if there was no artillery assistance from the beginning, it might be better, but before we enjoyed the powerful artillery fire of our army, seeing that the more devils rushed up one after another, and all of them turned into ashes in an instant, and after a long time, the soldiers naturally had a kind of dependence in their hearts, and at the same time, they would also think in their hearts that the more devils could fight again, what could they do? Can they still be stronger than the shells of our army?
But at this time, all of a sudden, there was not a single shell, which undoubtedly formed a huge contrast in the psychology of the soldiers from the sky to the ground, so it was inevitable that they would feel weak. \
Of course, these vain fighters do not include the special reconnaissance brigade in my hands, and they have already seen how many catties and taels these Vietnamese troops have as early as last night.
However, at this time, the soldiers saw that the Vietnamese army had caused such a large number of casualties and "chaos" and "chaos" caused by just a burst of artillery, and they couldn't help but cheer loudly, and at the same time, the fear of the quality of the Vietnamese army and the helplessness of losing the artillery assistance of the other side disappeared with it.
So at this time, I realized one point, that is, my plan to frighten the bow and bird not only killed and injured a part of the Vietnamese army, delayed the offensive time of the Vietnamese army, but also boosted the morale of our army.
Sometimes, it only takes a small stab 'excited' to make the fighters who are fighting fiercely and exert extraordinary combat effectiveness, and sometimes it only takes a small blow to make the entire army afraid and no one will come forward.
This may also be what a veteran said: "Fighting a war depends on a murderous spirit, if our murderous spirit overshadows the enemy, then we will win, if we can't cover it, then we will lose!" ”
And the more morale affects the poorly trained troops, the greater the impact, for the simple reason that veterans are 'mixed' into old fritters on the battlefield, and no matter what happens on the battlefield, they all know what they need to do to increase the chances of the whole army winning, and at the same time increase their chances of returning alive, but this is not the case with new recruits.
There is no doubt that most of the PLA soldiers are new recruits, and their oldest soldiers have at most been 'mixed' on the battlefield for a few months, so morale is very important to them. From this point of view, I think I am relatively lucky, a solution that I just came up with has inadvertently boosted the confidence of the entire army and boosted their morale.
Looking through the telescope at the Gushuikou in the distance, the Vietnamese army still did not move. But I knew that this was temporary, and the Vietnamese army was all highly qualified veterans, and just now they were only frightened away by our artillery fire with fear of our artillery fire, and when they withdrew and looked back, experienced artillerymen could even judge from the whistling of shells in the air that they had just bombed them only mortars and not long-range artillery. So I know that they will soon launch an attack on our positions, and the next attack will be a bold and all-out attack.
Thinking of this, I immediately ordered over the radio and on the phone: "All units are ready for battle, bazookas and recoilless gunners pay attention to anti-tanks, mortars are in full force at Gushuikou!" ”
"Yes!" It was not only the soldiers of my special reconnaissance brigade who responded, but also the cadres of the other highlands who accepted my orders very simply.
Then I knew that what I had gained from the battle just now was not only the benefits that appeared on the surface, but also the convincing of the highland cadres who did not like to listen to my orders very much.
"Woo...... "Just when we were waiting for the Yue devil to appear at the mouth of Gushui, we didn't expect that what we were waiting for first was the whistling of cannonballs in the sky, and I retracted my head back into the trench without saying a word, and then drilled into the anti-artillery 'hole' behind me...... It seems that we have become accustomed to the act of 'sex', so much so that there is no hesitation or pause at all.
"Boom ......" was followed by a bang, and the explosion of the shells shook the mud on the anti-cannon 'hole' like rain, and some of it just drilled into my collar and then slid down my back...... That uncomfortable feeling made me can't help but have a kind of 'jade' hope of reaching out and grabbing out the mud, but the small space of this anti-cannon 'hole' made it impossible for me to do this at all, I could only continue to curl up in it with my head down and wait quietly, as for what I was waiting for, even I was not sure. Either I just waited for a shell to blow up the anti-artillery 'hole' and bury me alive, or I waited to go out and fight the Yue devils again, which seemed to be a never-ending war!
This time, the Vietnamese artillery preparation time was very long, and after fifteen minutes of fighting, there was still no intention of stopping, I think this should be because the Vietnamese army knew that the shells of our artillery had run out, so they were so unscrupulous towards our army. It's just that although the shelling lasted for a long time, the intensity was insufficient, and the sound of the artillery was somewhat sparse, and sometimes there was even a short gap. Needless to say, it must have been because the artillery of the Vietnamese army had already suffered heavy losses under the suppression of our artillery fire.
The intensity of artillery fire like this is simply not enough to deal much damage to the fortifications of our army on the five heights, and it is impossible for the Vietnamese army, who have rich combat experience, not to know this, so I believe that the main purpose of their artillery bombardment this time is actually to cover their infantry through the mouth of the valley.
Sure enough, as I had guessed, when I braved the fire of the Vietnamese army to drill out of the anti-artillery 'hole', I found that a large number of Vietnamese troops had already taken advantage of the opportunity for our troops to hide in the anti-artillery 'hole' to avoid the shells, crossed the Gushui mouth and assembled in front of our army's position to prepare for the attack......
It's really a group of cunning guys, and when I saw this, I couldn't help but curse secretly: If I hadn't kept an extra eye, I would have really let these guys be deceived. If we continue to hide in the anti-artillery 'hole' like this, maybe we will know when the Vietnamese troops have rushed in front of us.
"All of them!" I immediately ordered over the radio: "Assign a platoon to each high ground to defend in the trenches!" ”
"Yes!" As the fighters responded, dozens of fighters drilled out of the anti-artillery 'holes' and put their guns on the trenches.
There is a reason why only one platoon of fighters is arranged, if there are too many people, it is easy to cause a large number of casualties under the fragments of artillery shells, and it is easy for the Vietnamese troops to take advantage of the situation if they are completely undefended, and the soldiers of a platoon can avoid a large number of casualties caused by artillery shells and provide a buffer time for our army.
However, the Vietnamese army did not know that we were already prepared, and they couldn't wait to pull two companies to rush to our position with the shells before they were fully prepared!
What makes me feel a little cold is ...... In order to achieve the 'nature' of concealment for the offensive, when the Vietnamese troops rushed up to the position, the Vietnamese artillery fire still bombarded our positions as usual, so that those Vietnamese infantry who charged at us fell into the shrapnel of the shells from time to time, and even a few shells directly exploded in the Vietnamese infantry group and overturned four or five people......
The devil is crazy, saying that even when the volunteers were on the battlefield to resist US aggression and aid Korea, they only used this trick as a last resort, of course, I also used it, that is, to rush to the enemy's position with the troops with artillery fire, so I know very well what this means.
In terms of casualties, this tactic may be a tactic, because most of the enemy is hiding in the 'holes' of the anti-artillery, and even if someone counterattacks, its combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced by the smoke of gunfire and the shrapnel flying everywhere. But there are pros and cons to everything, and the price to pay for this is that many Vietnamese soldiers will inevitably die under their own fire......
This may not sound like anything, casualties on the battlefield are inevitable, and some people will even say that they are all dead anyway, and it is not the same whether they die at the hands of the enemy or at the hands of their own people?
Not to mention, this is different, only those of us who face the rain of bullets on the battlefield, face life and death, can truly experience .......
