In a flash, it has been a week since he was transferred to the missile company. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Every day is just a step-by-step training.

According to the regimental training plan, the first week was devoted to theoretical study of officers.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, after the troops were assembled, the officers and men were divided into training, and except for the cadres on duty who were left on duty in each company to lead the teams to participate in the training of various specialties, the other officers went to the regiment to participate in the theoretical study of officers.

When they arrived at the special training room, a major officer appeared in front of everyone, and they heard the platoon commander Gao Bo say that this was the head of the training unit of the regiment headquarters, named Zhang Shengli.

The content of his lecture today is the implementation of the coastal defense operations of the T Army, which is the theory of sea-crossing and landing operations.

Hearing this topic, Yang Wenbin's heart shook, this is really to study the tactics and training methods, and he is really trying to win.

Because, in the battle to attack J Island, our army lost and lost the opportunity to take T Island in one fell swoop.

This history is that Yang Wenbin has learned.

On October 15, 1949, our army liberated Guangdong Province, on October 17, Xia Island was liberated, and at 1:30 a.m. on the 25th, I began to land on J Island.

The attacking force was the 128th Army under the 110th Corps, with a total of more than 9,000 people in three regiments.

Day 1

At 9 o'clock in the evening of October 24, the 244th Regiment of the 182nd Division of the 128th Army, the 251st Regiment of the 184th Division of the 128th Army, the 253rd Regiment of the 185th Division of the 129th Army, and the 3rd Battalion of the 246th Regiment of the 182nd Division of the 128th Army completed boarding at Aotou, Dadeng and Lianhe respectively.

Due to the westward drift of the tide, it arrived at the area of Longkou, Housha and Guningtou at about 1:30 a.m. on the 25th.

In order to cover the landing, our artillery began to bombard Guanao, Xiyuan, Guanyinting Mountain, and Guningtou on the north shore of J Island from Da and Xiaodeng, but the artillery fire from the other side was limited.

After our army came ashore, the organization was extremely chaotic and could not engage in organized battles, but it was still able to fight on its own, and they rushed to the shore one after another.

The 244th Regiment of our army, which was the first to land at Longkou, faced heavy casualties among the armored troops, the 251st Regiment broke through the landing at Guningtou, and the 253rd Regiment landed at Huwei to break through the defensive line.

At this time, the landing operation received a report of the successful landing and thought that victory was in sight, but because they were not familiar with the relationship between the rise and fall of the tide, as a result, all the beach-grabbing boats were stuck on the beach because of the low tide, so they were all stuck on the beach and could not move.

At around 3 o'clock, the 203rd and 3rd Nan'an boats of the Nationalist Navy participating in the battle violently bombarded the stranded ships and troops of our army in the sea northwest of Guningtou. After daybreak, none of the more than 100 ships returned, and the second echelon of reinforcements sighed across the sea.

Gao Kuiyuan, commander of the 18th Army of the National Army, commanded the 118th Division (owed to the 352nd Regiment) with the 3rd Company of Combat Vehicles (owed to a platoon) to attack our army; The 18th Division of the 19th Army, which had landed and was stationed in Qionglin, was also under the command of Commander Gao of the 18th Army.

The 53rd Regiment of the division, which had not yet disembarked, was transferred to Xiaojinmen and landed, under the command of Li Yuncheng, commander of the Fifth Army;

Liu Yunhan, commander of the 19th Army, contacted Shen Xiangkui, commander of the 25th Army, and commanded the 14th Division (owed to the 40th Regiment) and a part of the 13th Division to advance north from Houpu on J Island to meet the People's Liberation Army retreating south from Anqi and Putou, and actively advanced to Guningtou, and all the mortars of the 40th Division were attached to the 14th Division to strengthen its firepower.

Chen Zhenwei, commander of the chariot battalion, put two rows of chariots in reserve into Qionglin to stand by.

On the 25th, the 244th Regiment of our army once occupied Shuangru Mountain, but was counterattacked and defeated by the armored forces of the national army at dawn.

The 253rd Regiment of our army, which landed at Huwei, occupied Guanyin Mountain and Huwei Heights, and was forced to retreat by noon on the 25th.

The 251st Regiment of our army broke out of the encirclement and advanced to Guningtou, stuck to Lincuo, and counterattacked strongly with the 14th and 118th Divisions of the National Army, and the two sides fought over it repeatedly.

In fact, only one instructor and one instructor remained in the defenders on the high ground, and the rest were killed. Knowing that victory was hopeless, the two simultaneously committed suicide with a gun.

The next day

In the early morning of the 26th, our army was reinforced by two companies of the regiment and two companies of the 85th Division led by Sun Yunxiu, commander of the 246th Regiment. The 246th Regiment landed at the end of the lake; The other two companies landed at Guningtou.

At 6:30 a.m., Gao Kuiyuan, commander of the 18th Army of the National Army, commanded a counterattack, and the 118th Division attacked Lincuo from the coastline north of Putou.

At about 9 o'clock, the Nationalist Air Force took turns bombing and firing. Our army adopted street fighting, the two sides fought fiercely, the national army captured Lincuo at 12 o'clock, and took Nanshan at 15 o'clock. At 11 o'clock, Luo Zhuoying, deputy director of the Southeast Military and Political Chief's Office, and Hu Lian, commander of the 12th Corps, arrived at the J Island battlefield, and Hu Lian took over the command.

The 352nd Regiment of the Nationalist Army entered Beishan at 15 o'clock, and Li Shulan, commander of the 118th Division, replaced the 352nd Regiment with the 353rd Regiment and continued the attack with the chariot.

Day 3

At midnight, our army ran out of ammunition and food, broke through to the sea, and more than 1,300 people were trapped on the beach under the cliff north of Guningtou, and the national army attacked fiercely in the early morning of the 27th. Although our army resisted stubbornly, it was still completely annihilated, either sacrificed or captured. At 10 o'clock in the morning, the Battle of Guningtou officially ended.

At three o'clock in the morning of the 27th, about 30 people from the 3rd Company of the 259th Regiment of our army arrived at the north coast of Guningtou by motorboat, and after landing, they were all captured by the national army.

In the Battle of J Island, our army landed in three batches, with a total of 9,086 people, including about 350 boatmen and people.

Most of the landing force was killed, and more than 3,900 people were captured, including 6 battalion commanders, 5 company commanders, and 1 commander and fighter.

After our army crossed the river, the national army was defeated. The scale of the Battle of J Island is not large, it is only a division-level battle, but its far-reaching impact is far from being comparable to an ordinary division-level battle.

It is precisely because of our army's heavy defeat in the Battle of J Island and the defeat in the landing on Island B on 3 November that our army has a profound understanding of the arduousness of the landing battle, and our army has actively strengthened the building of naval and air forces, and does not dare to launch a landing operation by relying solely on the army as ignorant and fearless in the past. The national army was fortunate to have this precious victory, otherwise it would not have escaped defeat.

The defeat in the Battle of J Island made our army clear about the difficulty of the sea-crossing operation. Therefore, in the later South China Sea Island Campaign, our army greatly increased the degree of attention paid to sea-crossing operations.

There are two principles that must be followed in traditional sea-crossing operations: First, the first attack wave must have sufficient strength to break through the defense line and develop in depth, which requires very high sea-crossing tools; Second, establish a solid beachhead. If we go to the island, we must still follow these two principles. The defeat of J Island was precisely the defeat of these two items, especially the sea-crossing tools.

There are many reasons why our army failed to attack J Island with a hundred victorious divisions, and one of the most important is the confusion of command. The troops of the three regiments landed, and there was not a single division commander who accompanied the landing command. The offensive principle formulated by the 128th Army is "surprise attack and strengthened attack", which is correct, but there is no unified command, and the surprise attack is acceptable. However, the most important problem is that there is no coordination between the sea and the air, and the biggest enemy in the landing operation is first of all the enemy's navy and air force, and if our army purchases warships from its northern neighbor in advance to cooperate with the air force to cover the army's attack on J Island, the enemy may not be able to hold it.

The Central Military Commission ordered the landing operations command to sum up experience, learn lessons, and prepare for another attack. In 1950, when the United States intervened in the Korean War, the Party Central Committee and Chairman decided to stop the mission of liberating J Island and concentrate all efforts on suppressing bandits.

After nearly 50 years, has there been any change in the coastal defense tactics of the national army?

Zhang Shengli, head of the training unit, began his teaching:

"There are four main tactics of the T Army's coastal defense operations: First, to resist the enemy on the other side ---- advance surprise landing and loading troops; the second is to attack the enemy in Bandu ---- intercept the ferry and sailing boats, and surprise the transfer of the formation of the troops; the third is to destroy the enemy on the beachhead ---- the beachhead to resist; Fourth, it is necessary to annihilate the enemy in positions ---- fight on land.

Let's talk about the first tactic first: to resist the enemy on the other side ---- to make an early surprise landing and loading troops.

The possible means are: the Air Force preemptively countermeasures; naval warfare and mine-laying by the Navy; Army amphibious landing assault and fire counter-preparation.

……”

Listening to Unit Chief Zhang's lecture, Yang Wenbin felt: "If we want to win the victory in the sea-crossing and landing operation, we must rely on the strength of the navy and air force, otherwise, it will not be enough to rely only on the heroic fighting of the army."

Thinking of the decisive Normandy landings in World War II, Yang Wenbin was deeply touched.

The Normandy landings were a major Allied offensive on the Western Front in World War II, which took place at 6:30 a.m. on June 6, 1944. This combat operation was codenamed "Operation Overlord".

The Battle of Normandy was the largest naval landing operation to date, involving nearly three million soldiers crossing the English Channel to Normandy, France.

To carry out this large-scale campaign, the Allies amassed a total of 2.88 million troops.

The army has a total of 36 divisions, including 23 infantry divisions, 10 armored divisions, and 3 airborne divisions, with about 1.53 million men.

The Navy has about 5,300 warships in operation, including 13 battleships, 47 cruisers, 134 destroyers, about 1,200 destroyers, 4,126 landing ships, and more than 5,000 transport ships.

The Air Force has 13,700 combat aircraft, including 5,800 bombers, 4,900 fighters, and 3,000 transport aircraft gliders.

In the Normandy landings, the task of the Allied airborne forces was to land in shallow, near and deep depths 10 to 15 kilometers from the coast on both sides of the landing beachhead, to prevent reinforcements from enemy reserves, and to attack the German coastal defensive positions from the flanks and rear to cooperate with the sea landing.

Since in the first 1~2 days, the Allies only landed 6~8 infantry divisions, and only after establishing a large landing field for armored divisions to deploy, the armored divisions were put into operation. If the Germans broke through the line of defense of the landing force before the armored forces landed, it would bring disaster to the landing.

Therefore, the actions of the Airborne Forces in the initial stage of the landing were crucial for the success of the landing.

If you can't go ashore and don't have backup, this battle really can't be fought.

Say 1,000, 10,000, or our navy and air force are weak.

If our navy and air force were as powerful as the Allied navy and air force of World War II, then the issue of T Island would have been solved a long time ago, so why did it need to be delayed until now?

However, what is the strength of our current navy, air force, and second artillery force? ”

He fell into deep thought.

At noon, he was still immersed in the content of the morning lecture and did not come out.

Here, the company's correspondent Zou Zhengen came.

He took the notice from the regiment and said that he would be informed to go to the 446th regiment for training tomorrow, and that he should prepare his bags according to the requirements of the notice.
