Chapter 131: The Fierce Battle of the Bank (2)
The Vietnamese army was surrounded by black and oppressive troops from all sides, and more than a dozen searchlights "collapsed" and shone at our bank building with their bright pillars of light as day.
This commander of the Vietnamese army is not simple, seeing this, I can't help but secretly praise, originally our army still has a condescending geographical advantage on the bank building, but as soon as this searchlight shines, our army is in the dilemma of the enemy's darkness and our light. And there were some searchlights that dangled in front of us, making the whole building look like a revolving ballroom.
But I didn't worry about it, the searchlight can play a role on the battlefield, but the strong light it emits also completely 'exposed' its position in front of us.
"Attention the 'shooting' team!" I didn't want to press into the walkie-talkie, "You have five minutes to turn off all the searchlights!" ”
"Yes!" With a dozen responses from the members of the 'shooting' team, the whole world seemed to fall silent.
Then, I only heard the "......bang bang" of gunshots, and the pillars of light that 'shone' from the surrounding area decreased one after another. After a while, the battlefield returned to its previous darkness.
If only before...... If our armament is still limited to the Type 56 submachine gun or the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle, then there is really nothing that can be done about these searchlights that 'shoot' at us from a long distance. But now, our army has more than a dozen SVD sniper rifles and more than a dozen members of the "shooting" team. Therefore, the appearance of these searchlights can only give the members of the 'shooting' team a chance to perform.
As soon as the searchlights went dark, the Vietnamese troops who rushed towards our troops from all sides immediately eased up. I know that they have lost their goal not only because of the darkness, but also because they know that our army has sniper rifles, and there are more than a dozen.
The veterans who have been in battle for a long time are afraid of either artillery or machine guns, but this kind of sniper rifle with a long range and high precision, so we have a bright background, so those Vietnamese troops who were originally full of confidence to attack our army panicked.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but laugh secretly, if these Vietnamese soldiers still thought that we were still like in the early days of the counterattack, and the longest 'shooting' range was only 56 and a half of 400 meters, then this would undoubtedly surprise them greatly.
There are a total of thirteen sniper rifles, including me, not to mention that we will change sniper positions at any time, even if we distribute them evenly, there will be at least three sniper rifles on each side, and the sniper rifles with high 'precision' and the machine guns with high 'firing' density, I see how you infantry can get in......
Although the Vietnamese army also took this into account, first, their offensive had already been launched, and now it was like an arrow on the string, and second, there were indeed not a few tanks left, and the offensive of the People's Liberation Army on the periphery had become more and more intense, so they still rushed towards us with guns as a last resort.
Two hundred meters!
Perhaps there is still a gap between the strength of the Vietnamese army and ours on the whole, but in this local area, the Vietnamese army does not know how many times more than us, and the poison gas bombs in the bank can be said to be their only life-saving straw, so the Vietnamese army commander has invested a large number of men and horses here in a very luxurious way, just hoping to be able to snatch back the lost gas bombs as soon as possible in the shortest possible time.
As a result, the banks were surrounded by Vietnamese soldiers jumping up and down, some of them scurrying along the houses, some using the craters, and some of them setting up machine guns or various direct-aim artillery pieces on the ruined walls. In front of the bank's main 'gate', two T54 tanks covered two groups of Vietnamese troops slowly approaching us......
One hundred and fifty meters!
The Vietnamese troops still slowly approached our battle line, and continued to show their battlefield skills like dancing in front of us, some of them ran forward for a while and suddenly fell on the ground, or when they were crawling forward, they suddenly jumped up and rushed forward, and their movements were slow and slow, and the route was also 'alternated' left and right from time to time, making it difficult to grasp their laws, and at the same time, the firepower between light and heavy firepower also covered and coordinated with each other......
I have to admit that the 308th Division of the Vietnamese Army really lives up to its name, and it is worthy of being the earliest infantry division formed by the Vietnamese Army. Merely...... Their tricks might have been useful if they were attacking a field fortification or a high ground, but they were attacking a fortress-like building...... They are still concentrating at our feet in the end, not walking in front of our guns, aren't they? Why are you tossing these actions around?
One hundred meters!
I still didn't give the order to shoot, for the simple reason that the Vietnamese army's artillery preparations had already verified how strong the walls of the bank were, so I didn't need to be anxious at all.
Seeing that there was still no movement from us, the Vietnamese army became more and more cautious, and they slowed down their advance again, and even the two tanks turned their turrets and drove cautiously towards us while on guard. But no matter how careful the Vietnamese army was, their ranks became denser and denser as the encirclement continued to shrink, which is exactly what I hoped for......
"Hit!" When the Vietnamese army approached a distance of 50 meters, I gave the order to go to war.
Instantaneous light machine guns, heavy machine guns, anti-aircraft machine guns, submachine guns...... There are also sniper rifles in the hands of the members of the 'shooting' team, and all kinds of weapons are roaring at the enemy. The bullets rained down on the enemy, only to cause the Vietnamese troops to fall in pieces like harvested rice.
Although the Vietnamese army is said to be all veterans, and all of them are very good at looking for cover, there are too few places that can helplessly provide cover for them.
Hiding in a crater? The bank building is a four-story building, and although it is not high, the depression angle formed is enough to 'shoot' the Vietnamese soldiers hiding in the crater more than 50 meters away.
Hiding behind broken walls and sandbags? The 12.7 mm caliber high-firing machine gun "Da Da Da" fired a row of bullets, easily penetrating the broken walls and sandbags, and beating the Vietnamese troops hiding behind them into a sieve. The machine gun only needs one bullet to break a soldier in two, so piercing through broken walls and sandbags is as easy as piercing tofu.
In the course of the Vietnamese army's operation, the members of the 'shooting' strike group had already written down the locations of these key targets, and at this point the fight was accurate one by one, and the Vietnamese army's bazookas and recoilless guns did not play much of a role at all. Even if a few 'doors' hurriedly fired a cannonball, it could not pose any threat to the bank's reinforced concrete walls. Moreover, after they fired a shell, it meant that they had 'exposed' the target, and they would soon become the target of sniping by the members of the 'shooting' team......
Some Vietnamese soldiers were clever enough to follow behind the Vietnamese tanks without 'exposing', thinking that our army would have nothing to do with them. But what they don't know is...... The anti-tank weapons left in the bank by the Vietnamese army were only enough to blow up their entire tank regiment......
I think the reason why the Vietnamese army left so many anti-tank weapons in the bank is probably because they also knew that the only ones who could break through the bank fortress were tanks. So in order to be able to keep the gas bombs in the bank, of course, they had as many anti-tank weapons as possible.
This is cheap for us, the 'precision' of the bazooka is not high enough? It doesn't matter! More than 20 fighters each 'operated' a 'door' bazooka, and at the same time as I gave the order, they flashed out of the window and fired 'fire' in the direction of the Vietnamese tanks...... With the sound of "chirping," the dozens of rockets were divided into several layers and flew towards the Vietnamese tanks like fireworks set off during the Chinese New Year.
There were only two Vietnamese tanks, and the T54 was still a medium tank, so the soldiers didn't even need to aim, and in the blink of an eye, the two tanks were blown into two fireballs. Not to mention the Vietnamese troops hiding behind those two tanks, who were either killed or burned to death by the flames. The other Vietnamese troops who followed behind were also blocked by the two fireballs, and they neither advanced nor retreated......
Although our number is less than one-tenth of that of the Vietnamese army, because of the favorable terrain and powerful firepower, we have completely suppressed the Vietnamese army, and the Vietnamese army has almost no strength to fight back. However, the Vietnamese army was not willing to lose, and perhaps it was also because our army was 'forced' to be anxious, so although a large number of people died under our guns, they still attacked us one after another, regardless of casualties. Even among them, some Vietnamese soldiers charged at us with explosive bags...... But the result can be imagined, there are more than a dozen "shooting" team members hiding in the bank building, and more than a dozen sniper rifles with scopes, so those "dangerous elements" are always killed without exception before rushing to the bank.
"Bang bang......" I pulled the trigger twice in succession and 'fired' two bullets, and the two Vietnamese soldiers fell in response.
The idea of these two Vietnamese soldiers holding explosives and trying to crawl to the corner of the bank building along the shadow of the house to blast was indeed very good, and when everyone was busy shooting and firing in the dark night, no one would notice that there would be two black people squirming on the dark ground.
They were very careful, and their bodies were covered in black mud as a camouflage, even the explosives 'medicine' bags in their hands. And they always keep their heads down when there is an explosion or a fire nearby. However, they still made the mistake that they should not have carried an AK47 while carrying an explosive bag......
I think this is because they have received the education that "guns are in people, guns are dead, people are killed", so they don't throw away their weapons at any time! There is nothing wrong with saying that a soldier should never leave his weapon at any time, especially on the battlefield. It's just that when they are crawling, the AK47 dangles on their backs, and occasionally the barrel of the gun will collide with the bricks or stones next to it to make a crisp "sonorous" sound.
So I found them, and the result can be imagined, they can only lie on the way forward forever with the explosive bag......
"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and a bright red and huge fireball exploded in front of the position.
A Vietnamese flamethrower approached us from the side of the bank with a flamethrower on his back. It is true that the flamethrower is a threat to a well-defended fortress, because what it shoots is a liquid, and the liquid is destined to easily 'shoot' into our windows, and it is also a burning liquid...... So just as we used flamethrowers to temporarily seal the enemy's 'shot' holes when attacking the Ghost Fort, the enemy can also use flames to suppress our 'shot' holes.
Of course, the Vietnamese soldier also disguised his petrol canister a little bit, I guess he wrapped it in his military uniform, and I don't know how he 'made' it squared to make it look a bit like a walkie-talkie. I have to admit that if he was just a radio soldier, I wouldn't have wasted a single bullet for him, because our machine guns were clattering everywhere upstairs and downstairs, and I would have preferred that the Vietnamese army would have summoned more reinforcements to our guns with rifles.
However, the Vietnamese Pyro made a mistake - all walkie-talkies had a long antenna, so I knew it wasn't a walkie-talkie, and then I looked closely at the flamethrowgun he was holding in his hand, and I was sure that he was a flamethrower.
After a bullet passed, the fireball from the gasoline canister and the nearby Vietnamese soldiers who were igniting and screaming proved that I was right.
Then there were a few "bangs", and I knocked out the last few rounds of the third magazine, and after loading the fourth magazine, I was no longer interested in raising my gun to aim, because I felt that it was not a war at all, but a massacre, and the Vietnamese troops poured up in piles and piles under our guns......
In my opinion, the Vietnamese army had no chance at all, they just proved once again that the tactics of crowds were ineffective in the face of machine guns.
However, the Vietnamese army still heeded the lives of people to pile up in the bank, and although the corpses of the Vietnamese soldiers were piled up around, they still stepped on the blood and corpses of their comrades and rushed forward.
Every window in the bank building, both frontal and sideways, was pouring bullets out of the window with a constant roar.
Does the Vietnamese army want to consume our ammunition? No way, the ammunition in the bank warehouse is piled up like a hill, and when we run out of bullets, I am afraid that there will be very few troops left. We can even place an additional 'strong' machine gun in each window, and when the barrel of this 'strong' machine gun hits red, we can move another 'strong' to shoot......
In my opinion, these Vietnamese soldiers are simply committing suicide, making senseless casualties at our guns and bullets.
This can't help but remind me of our army's attack on Tohein-ri on the battlefield to resist US aggression and aid Korea, our army surrounded a small group of American and French troops with an absolute superiority of troops, but it was also unable to fight after paying heavy casualties. The only difference is that this time it is us who defends, and it is the enemy who attacks......
But can the Vietnamese army not attack? They were already surrounded by our troops, and the gas bombs in the bank were their only hope, so they had to attack.
At this time, I couldn't help but feel some sympathy for these Vietnamese soldiers, knowing that it was useless to fight like this, but they still had to try.
Finally, the Vietnamese army ended their first charge after paying a large number of casualties. As soon as the sound of gunfire weakened, the screams of the Vietnamese troops on the battlefield soon followed.
I looked at the multi-function watch on my wrist, and in just over 20 minutes since the start of the fight, there was at least one battalion of the Vietnamese army left around the bank. If all the Vietnamese troops in this battalion are completely dead, it will be fine, and we can also end up in peace. But many of the Vietnamese soldiers here were wounded or on the verge of death, so there was a wailing around the bank like a cemetery......
Crying, shouting, screaming, groaning...... There are all kinds of sounds, and the five 'flowers' and eight 'doors' are strange. Even if we know that they are enemies and know that they are innocent of death, but people's hearts are 'flesh', and when we see this tragic scene on earth and hear these voices from hell, we will still feel desolation and unbearable in our hearts.
Therefore, the soldiers neither cheered nor applauded, but all looked thoughtfully at the pile of dead bodies and struggling wounded people outside the window, and some soldiers even threw several first-aid kits at the wounded Vietnamese soldiers......
But if the Vietnamese army were to charge us again, I believe the soldiers would not hesitate to pull the trigger on their machine guns. Either you are or I die, we are not those good men and women who can cut 'meat' and feed eagles.
"Battalion commander!" After a while, a correspondent quickly ran up to me and handed the microphone to me and said, "It's connected, it's the division!" ”
"What!" I jumped up from the ground and took the microphone to identify myself.
On the other end of the microphone came the voice of Chief of Staff Li: "Comrade Cui Wei! I'm glad to hear that you've found the gas bombs and contained them, and you're going to have to keep the bank building ......"
"Camp Commander Cui!" At this time, the microphone suddenly became the voice of Commander Wang, and he only heard him say excitedly: "You have saved the lives of thousands of our soldiers, and Commander Chu personally called and asked me to thank you on behalf of the entire army and all the officers and soldiers of Langshan!" But I have something to tell you, since we thought that the location of the Vietnamese army's poison gas bombs was in the administrative committee building, so the main force and the armor-piercing troops are all in the northeast, you must hold the bank until our reinforcements arrive......"
"Zizi ......"
The sound in the walkie-talkie became more and more indistinct, and finally it became a bunch of noises again, and nothing could be heard. But I don't think it's important, the important thing is that the gas bombs are still in our hands, the important thing is that our troops in Lang Son are safe, and the important thing is that we are all alive......
"Report to the battalion commander!" At this time, Li Shui's 'wave' report came from the walkie-talkie: "The more devils have transferred tanks again, this time it's T62!" Repeat, at ten o'clock, two T62s! ”
"T62 tank?" I couldn't help but be shocked when I heard this, and hurriedly ran to a window on the side and raised the telescope to take a look, and sure enough, the huge figures of two T62s appeared in the circle of the telescope.
It seems that the Vietnamese army has shown the guys at the bottom of the box, this T62 is not as easy to deal with as the T54, the Vietnamese army obviously wants to use it to break open the big 'door' of the bank, and then rush in and tear us to pieces......
