Nowadays, in the equipment system of the Chinese Revolutionary Army, mortars occupy a very important position with their flexible combat style and special ballistics. [.cc]

The 3rd Division and the 1st Cavalry Division were equipped with a large number of mortars, the two divisions together, there were almost more than 100 of them, and a large number of mortars surrounded the Japanese hills.

In just ten minutes, the two divisions fired nearly 1,000 mortar shells, blasting the hills into gravel, and the entire position was blown apart.

Dongfang Kai shouted: "Brother Zhang Yan, order the cavalry to charge, this time we must tear their last line of defense open and annihilate them all in one fell swoop!" ”

Zhang Yan on the side was also very excited, nearly a thousand shells attacked a small hill, if the fortifications they built in a short time could not be destroyed, it would be unreasonable, charge!

A cavalry battalion preemptively opened the way, flanked by infantry from the 3rd Division, with heavy fire to provide suppression, and launched a direct offensive. x full works download/

What I didn't expect was that the Japanese army at this time was all of a sudden, full firepower, although now the Japanese army suffered heavy losses, but they still have a small number of 5,000 troops, still have a lot of heavy machine guns, carelessly, the cavalry battalion was beaten by someone to a surprise attack, one after another, the infantry on both sides, was also swept down in pieces reads;! The follow-up forces had to temporarily retreat to avoid the edge of heavy machine gun fire!

Zhang Yan and Dongfang Kai jumped up all of a sudden, damn it, what's the matter, these Japanese troops still maintain such a strong combat power, could it be that their own mortars were fought in vain just now?

It's not that the mortar offensive is ineffective, but that the defensive operations of the Japanese army have improved!

Thinking about the many battles between the Japanese army and the Chinese Revolutionary Army, both sides are learning from each other's strengths, not only Zhang Yi integrated the Japanese army's stabbing technology into the white-knuckle battle of the Chinese Revolutionary Army; In order to understand why every positional war, the defense of the Chinese Revolutionary Army is so impregnable, he has repeatedly inspected the broken positions left by the Chinese Revolutionary Army, and has thought about the strength of the trench fortifications, and has restored the trench fortifications and annular tunnels according to their own understanding. But it also played a powerful role!

I have to say that this opinion Shangwen is indeed a military genius who is not much.

Zhang Yan and Dongfang Kai, seeing that the attack was blocked, had to temporarily stop the attack and think about countermeasures!

Now relying on the speed of the cavalry to launch an attack, some of them are strong, and the gains outweigh the losses, after all, the Japanese army still has dozens of heavy machine guns, and under the cover of firepower, it is really difficult to forcibly break through the past, as for the infantry, it is the same.

Dongfang Kai gritted his teeth and said: "Lao Zhang, now we have to change the way of playing, the cavalry division can't play much role for the time being, retreat first, in the middle of my main force and the seventh brigade, at any time to deal with sudden accidents, I will lead the main force here to carry out earthwork, dig tunnels, just a few hundred meters away, two or three hours, you can dig over, when the time comes, you can use grenades, you can kill them!" ”

Zhang Yan frowned and had a great opportunity to attack, he was unwilling to let it go like this, but what Dongfang Kai said now also made sense!

Zhang Yan replied: "I need to be flexible, I will lead two cavalry brigades to retreat, and the other third brigade will stay, scattered around the mound, once your attack is successful and the Japanese army is defeated, it will be time for our cavalry to exert its might, chase the defeated soldiers, you three infantry, it is not as good as one of our cavalry; ”

Dongfang Kai smiled, how could he not understand what Zhang Yan meant, such a good opportunity for meritorious service, no one is willing to give up, not to mention that Zhang Yan still has a big revenge to revenge, and what Zhang Yan said is also reasonable, once all the Japanese fortifications are torn apart, the Japanese army will inevitably be defeated and flee, at this time, it is time for the cavalry to go out.

Dongfang Kai smiled: "Okay, it's up to you, Lao Zhang, so that we can move faster against the Japanese army in front of us and turn back to defend the Yalu River!" ”

Just do it, Dongfang Kai launched an engineer battalion, feeling that the manpower was still not enough, and sent it along with his own guard battalion! A pit stretched out quickly ahead.

The Japanese army alone has fired tens of thousands of shells in the attack of one day and one night, and the entire river defense on the west bank of the Yalu River has been blown to pieces, if it were not for the fact that the Yalu River has gradually entered a dry period, I am afraid that it would have flooded long ago.

Even so, the river embankment has begun to be precarious, the seventh brigade under the non-stop powerful offensive of the Japanese army, the support is extremely hard, Xiao Kai's nine battalion commanders, now there are only four left, one of them is seriously wounded, it is difficult to persist in fighting, three regiment commanders have also been reimbursed one, the entire seventh brigade has been gradually dispersed, the main brigade of 6,000 people, lost six or seven, now there are only more than 2,000 people, two artillery battalions, together can exert combat power, but there is only one battalion of artilleryIn the loss, I am afraid that it will be difficult to cover the entire Yalu River.

At this time, it was already night, and it was completely dark outside, Xiao Kai understood that it was now his most difficult moment, and he wanted to hold on to the next night, but it was not easy, this group of little devils was best at launching a sneak attack at night, and Xiao Kai was not sure whether he could withstand the defense tonight.

Xiao Kai sighed and said: "Order, the army is temporarily resting, the last battalion is here, pull the third battalion up for me, go all out to be on guard, guard the safety of the embankment, once the enemy situation is discovered, immediately fight with all your strength, no matter what, you must survive tonight!" ”

Liu Keyu, the regiment commander on the side, said: "Brigade commander, you also go down to rest for a while, I'm here to stand, you haven't closed your eyes for two days and two nights, it's not okay to hold on like this!" ”

Xiao Kai shook his head and said, "Rest, can I rest?" Hold on, how can you survive tonight, tomorrow, I think that the second division should almost be eaten by our division commander! ”
