Although the grenadiers were not as accurate as the Japanese troops, they were also trying their best to pour out ammunition, and although the machine guns could not inflict too many casualties on the enemy, the enemy did not want to charge, and everything was stubbornly facing each other.

The gasoline transported by the division headquarters quickly entered the trenches, and three or four soldiers had a small cart, which was also covered with thick sandbags, after all, it was flammable and explosive, and the enemy's bombardment was also intensive, in case it was detonated in the trenches, it would not look good, so the precautions should still be done.

Chen Feng immediately smiled when he unloaded a barrel of gasoline, and said to the soldiers who were transporting it: "This is the masterpiece of the chief of staff, right?" There is an explosive bag attached to both ends, and this kind of ghost idea can only be thought up by him, 'Sai Zhuge '? ”

Lu Guoquan was born in the army, and the war relied on bravery, and the real advice was Wu Chaowen, the chief of staff who graduated from the second phase of Huangpu, and the two have been partners for many years, when Lu Guoquan was still the battalion commander, Wu Chaowen was the company commander under him, both of them participated in the Northern Expedition War, and made many achievements, but between 1928 and 1929, they participated in four Jiangxi crackdown operations, but they were repeatedly defeated, three of which were because of the chief of staff Wu Chaowen's strange plot to get out, so the officers and soldiers called him 'Sai Zhuge '.

When Chen Feng said this, the soldiers also laughed and praised him for having a good heart with the chief of staff. However, at this time, no one had the leisure to continue to say anything, Chen Feng immediately ordered the soldiers to adjust their firepower, vacate the defensive positions in front of the Japanese tanks, and arrange fire points on the left and right sides to attract the enemy's fire.

Set up a wooden board in the vacated area, lift the oil drum on the wooden board, one person is responsible for pushing the oil drum forward, and the two people in the middle are responsible for lifting the wooden plank, as long as the wooden board is lifted, plus a push, the oil drum will roll out of the trench, safe and fast.

The order was given, everyone was in place, a dozen oil drums were ready, light and heavy machine guns were concentrated to attract enemy fire.

Chen Feng's hand was raised high, and there was a special person in front of each oil drum to watch Chen Feng's gestures.

"Put!" Chen Feng roared with a hideous face, and his raised right hand struggled to cut it off.

Suddenly, more than a dozen oil drums suddenly rolled out of the trenches, except for one that was blown up by the enemy at the moment of pushing out the trenches, and there was a huge fire on the spot, and the explosion scene was absolutely shocking, causing a lot of casualties to the expeditionary force in the trenches, and all the trenches of forty or fifty meters were buried in the sea of fire, and countless people were burned to death on the spot. But the other dozen or so oil drums all rolled down, and the weight of the oil drums, combined with a slope of nearly 45 degrees, formed a thunderous momentum in an instant.

The oil drum rolled down against the ground, and the Japanese army had no time to adjust the angle of fire in a hurry, even if the reaction was good, it was not easy to hit the oil drum that was rolling at high speed.

Except for three or four of the dozen oil drums that were blown up in the middle, the rest managed to roll in front of the enemy's tanks, and at this time, the light and heavy machine guns and rifles of the expeditionary force all greeted the oil drums until the oil drums were burst.

"Boom, boom!"

The sound of explosions suddenly stopped, and the kinetic energy brought by the earth was absolutely shaking, and the devil's steel defense line was destroyed in a sea of fire in an instant, gasoline coupled with high explosives, bringing a terrifying scene that was unimaginable, flames splashed, and the front and rear coverage area was at least forty or fifty meters, and even the Japanese troops behind the tanks were not spared, and they were burned to death if they were not shocked to death.

When the smoke of gunpowder dissipated, more than a dozen tanks of the Japanese army retreated, and the wounded soldiers who were rolling on the ground did not care about it, and directly ran over it, and a small number of infantry also spread their short legs for two days and ran down the mountain with all their might, and many of them even lost their guns.

In the trenches of the expeditionary force, after a burst of cheers, the troops also began to withdraw from the trenches in an orderly manner, and everyone knew that the Japanese infantry could not charge, and the next thing was to be shelled.

Within a few minutes, the entire trench was basically evacuated, even the wounded soldiers and corpses were taken away, and only a small number of troops were left on the position for observation and temporary emergency treatment.

At the front line, which was still bustling just now, there were only a dozen or so tanks of the Japanese army left in an instant, and a small amount of oil fire stuck to the steel and crackled and burned.

Of course, there were still a place where the corpses of Japanese soldiers were still burning with billowing smoke, and there were even a small number of wounded soldiers rolling and wriggling in the fire, making a series of terrible screams.

Indo, Command of the Expeditionary Force.

The news of Meng Gong's victory in the first battle had reached the headquarters, and the entire headquarters was boiling.

Jiang Haoran frowned when he looked at the battle report and detailed operational layout sent by Chen Mianwu, commander of the 75th Army, in any victory, he can always keep a clear head, and the cheers in the command headquarters did not affect him at all.

Chief of Staff Huang Jie quickly discovered Jiang Haoran's abnormality, walked over quickly, and asked urgently: "What's the matter, Boss, is there something wrong?" ”

Jiang Haoran glanced at Huang Jie and said, "I overestimated Chen Mianwu's command ability, and after this battle, the problem exposed is big. First of all, at the very beginning, they left a battalion of soldiers on the position for the Japanese to bomb, resulting in hundreds of casualties before the battle began, which was the biggest failure, and they could have left only a small number of observation posts, after all, the enemy's battle line was longer than ours, even if the enemy could advance to the foot of the mountain with the help of artillery fire, there was still an uphill distance of three or four hundred meters, and the Japanese army would never dare to open fire again at this distance, and our soldiers had enough time to enter the trenches and prepare for battle. Secondly, there is no problem in building trenches on the ridge line, but it is also necessary to build a parallel trench on the anticline to station troops and also as a second line of defense, in case the Japanese army captures the defensive position on the ridgeline, it can still use this trench to engage in repeated battles with the Japanese army on the ridge line. In the end, twenty-four howitzers did not play any role and became a complete ornament. ”

Huang Jie frowned and said with a wry smile: "General seat, I think what you said makes sense in the first and second points, but for the third point, I don't think you can blame Chen Mianwu, after all, the enemy's air power is too strong, as soon as the artillery position is fired, the enemy's planes will immediately swarm in there, and the artillery position will basically have to be finished after a wild bombardment. ”

Jiang Haoran said angrily: "Finished playing? That's because he Chen Mianwu made a mistake in layout, put an artillery position in the mountain, and the Japanese army's aerial bombs could easily be thrown into his artillery position, and it was a large piece of bombing, can you not finish playing? ”

"Where can artillery positions be located if they are not located in mountain nests? Could it be that it is still located on the top of the mountain, and it will not be even more attacked by Japanese artillery fire? Huang Jieqi said.

Jiang Haoran was not in a hurry to answer Huang Jie, picked up the baton and walked to the combat sand table, and the conversation between the two had already alarmed the staff officers and generals of the headquarters, and a group of people quickly surrounded them.

Jiang Haoran waved his baton, and the tip of the stick fell on Meng Gong's defensive position, and said: "Look, this is the front of the Japanese attack, there is our defensive position on the ridge, and on this narrow slope down, as high as four or five hundred meters, several kilometers long, if the artillery position is erected on this anti-slope, the enemy's direct-fire artillery will not be able to blow up at all." According to the parabolic theory, even if the enemy's curved artillery crosses the ridge and hits the valley or on the opposite hill, it is absolutely impossible for the artillery to fall at the position of the artillery position. As for the Japanese planes, are they really unmatched? I don't think so, Menggong Mountain is connected to Bujieban Mountain, the terrain is complex and the terrain is also high, and anti-aircraft machine guns and machine guns can be erected everywhere, so I have allocated most of the anti-aircraft machine guns and machine guns transported from India to them, but they do not seem to play a normal role. As long as these weapons are used to force the enemy to carry out low-altitude dive bombing, it is impossible to accurately drop aerial bombs on this slope, at least the possibility is very small. Moreover, once the war starts, it is a question of whether the Japanese planes will dare to continue to drop bombs. Everybody look at 616161616161"

Jiang Haoran put his baton horizontally on the position of Menggong Mountain and continued: "Although the distance between the enemy and the top of the mountain is only four or five hundred meters, this is the distance up the mountain, and if you look down from above, this distance will be shortened by at least half, that is to say, the actual distance between our army and the Japanese army is only more than 200 meters, and more than 200 meters is not called distance for an altitude of several thousand meters. Therefore, once the Japanese army begins to attack, it is when we attack the enemy, and the enemy's mountain artillery and field artillery are scum in front of the 150 howitzers, and if they are well grasped, they can be uprooted in one round. ”

Jiang Haoran's words immediately ushered in an uproar at the headquarters, the anti-slope artillery position is definitely a new word in this era, and it is impossible to study who first put forward the theory of "anti-slope", but what really brought this concept into full play was our army's Shangganling Campaign, which is simply a textbook for "anti-slope" offensive and defensive warfare.

The most classic is the ridge line offensive and defensive battle that lasted for several days, the Mi army fought steadily, using the advantage of artillery fire to gradually control the ridge line, while the volunteer army stubbornly held the anti-slope position for time, and reorganized the troops at night to touch it and then recapture it, so that the whole campaign fell into repeated battles.

Undoubtedly, Jiang Haoran's tactics were combined with the tactics on Shangganling, and this brand-new theory immediately opened the eyes of the generals at all levels of the command and applauded it one after another.

Soon, Jiang Haoran's phone call also entered the headquarters of the 75th Army, and the acting army commander Chen Mianwu was first scolded by Jiang Haoran to the blood, and then he made a promise to the microphone before putting down the phone for a while.

Chen Mianwu wiped the beads of sweat from his head, and before he could speak, all the division commanders in the command headquarters surrounded him, and even Lu Guoquan, Wu Chaowen, and Chen Feng, who had just gotten off the line of fire, were also impressively listed.
