Episode 42 Attack on Gu Yunji (4)
Han Xing thought about it, and said to Yin Zhaoli and to Liu Yimin, the commander of the first company: "Can we do this and do a cutting operation." ”
"What is a dicing job?" Liu Yimin couldn't help but ask. Because time is so precious, for every minute of delay, many soldiers will die innocently.
Han Xing explained to him: "The most convenient thing for the enemy is to jump back and forth in each house, we will first blow up a block, tightly surround and control this block, and then dig holes in one room after another. After this block is cleared, the next block will be moved. ”
Liu Yimin thought for a while and said: "I think this method works, it's better than us just being beaten." ”
Yin Zhaoli also said: "I can think it's okay." Company Commander Liu, let's give it a try! ”
Liu Yimin nodded, and shouted loudly: "A platoon leader!" ”
At this time, Zhang Wenlu yelled: "Here!" Suddenly stood in front of Liu Yimin.
Han Xing's heart was stunned, no, the pre-war mobilization meeting of the first company had participated in it by himself. Isn't the platoon leader Wang Yishan? Where did Wang Yishan go...... A bad omen rose in Han Xing's heart, so he asked a soldier next to him, "Where is Wang Yishan's platoon commander?" ”
The soldier lowered his head and said, "Platoon Commander Wang has died a long time ago, and Zhang Wenlu is the acting platoon leader." ”
Han Xing's heart "chuckled", at the pre-war mobilization meeting, platoon commander Wang Yishan still spoke sonorously and forcefully, why did he die at this time. Liu Yimin said just now that half of the company has been killed or wounded, and in this half of the people, how many young lives and how many images of dragons and tigers have died out in a blink of an eye.
War, an abominable war, should be avoided as much as possible if there is even the slightest possibility. The war is so cruel and terrible!
The slicing battle begins, and a platoon is responsible for blasting, which is to quickly blast continuously with explosives packs. Soon, a square of dozens of rooms was formed. Then the second platoon is responsible for guarding, that is, as long as the enemy in the block escapes, it will shoot.
The third platoon was responsible for digging holes, and the three platoon leaders led a few soldiers to quickly clean up a room. As soon as they rushed into the house, the darkness in the house had not yet gotten used to it, and the gunshots rang out for a while, and the three platoon leaders and several soldiers were all killed in the house.
"Slow," it was unfavorable to be out of the school at the beginning, and Han Xing's heart was very heavy. He said to Yin Zhaoli and Liu Yimin, "You can't fight like this." When you enter the house, throw two grenades, and then sweep them around with your assault rifle before you can enter the house. ”
At this time, Zhang Wen, the leader of the platoon, passed by and said, "Let's do this work in our platoon!" ”
At this time, Liu Yimin, the commander of the first company, had no troops to send, so he had to nod and say, "Be careful." ”
A platoon leader, Zhang Wenlu, led a few fighters, aimed at a room, and threw two grenades first. The room was small, and the grenade showed its power, "boom, boom" There were two loud bangs, and before the smoke of gunpowder had dissipated, Zhang Wenlu rushed in with an assault rifle.
"Da da......" When the bullet arrived, a platoon leader finished the magazine, and then rolled out all at once. Another soldier went up and hit the bottom of a magazine that was also "da-da...... in the room.
Zhang Wenlu listened outside the house for a while, and there was no movement in the house. After stopping for a while, I sent someone into the house to take a look, good fellow, more than a dozen people fell in the house.
A platoon leader called the soldiers, called the same method, and cleaned room by room. The situation on the battlefield began to shift from passive to active, and the recalcitrant soldiers in these houses had nowhere to run, so they could only hold on in the house, but as soon as the grenade was thrown in, it was impossible to hold on.
After the grenade exploded, a room full of people were almost reimbursed, and then an assault rifle reached in, dozens of bullets were a dozen, and the rest was quickly finished.
Finally, there was a room where the recalcitrant army could not stand it anymore, and the house shouted: "Stop fighting, stop fighting, we surrender, we surrender." ”
"Throw all the weapons out." Zhang Wenlu shouted outside.
Guns were thrown out of the house, one by one.
"Raise your hands, hold your head, and come out of the house." Zhang Wenlu shouted again.
The recalcitrant soldier in this room came out of the house, and the leader was still an officer, with a pistol, either a company commander or a battalion commander.
Yin Zhaoli said to a regimental staff officer beside him: "Do you understand this tactic?" ”
The young regimental staff officer said: "I see. ”
"Then quickly tell the second and third battalions, and tell them to fight according to this tactic. In addition, the 21st and 24th regiments were notified and told them about our tactics, and they could also refer to them. ”
The regimental staff officer shouted: "Yes!" "Swiftly carry out the order.
The street battles in the entire ancient gathering quickly turned from being turned to the initiative, and the Eighth Route Army used this tactic to begin to encircle and annihilate the enemy block by square.
The recalcitrant soldiers in another room raised their hands and surrendered, and Liu Yimin, the commander of the first company, was talking to the new platoon commander Zhang Wenlu. Maybe an officer of the recalcitrant army saw that Liu Yimin was an officer, and he had already held the pistol in his hand, so he gave Liu Yimin a shot.
This shot hit Liu Yimin's head, and Liu Yimin fell backwards.
As soon as the assault rifles of the first company of fighters rang out, dozens of bullets swept towards the reactionary officer, turning his body into a hornet's nest.
Yin Zhaoli, Han Xing, and Zhang Wenlu immediately went to Liu Yimin's side to check the injury. Liu Yimin's head was covered with blood, his eyes were closed, he didn't say a word, and he had already stopped breathing.
Such a living person, who was shouting and screaming just now, will not work in the blink of an eye, how can it not make people miserable. But this is war, a brutal war, and if you want to be sad, there is no time for it, because the battle is still going on.
Yin Zhaoli closed his eyes in pain. Han Xing looked blankly at the smoke in the distance. Zhang Wenlu shouted: "Company Commander Liu, Company Commander...... Company commander...... Woowoo woo ......"
A soldier was so angry that he was about to torture the captives with an assault rifle.
"Captive policy!" Yin Zhaoli had to let out a loud roar to stop the fighter.
Han Xing took a look at this assault company again, the company commander Liu Yimin sacrificed, and the original first platoon commander, second platoon commander, and third platoon commander were all sacrificed. The newly promoted Zhang Wenlu still replaced Wang Yishan, the original platoon leader who sacrificed.
There were only about 30 people left in the entire company, and there were four or five minor injuries, and they insisted on being lightly injured and not getting out of the line of fire.
"The company can't be without a company commander!" Han Xing reminded Yin Zhaoli and said.
Yin Zhaoli looked at the more than 30 soldiers in the company, all of them were good, although there were a few lightly wounded, but they all held their heads high, their chests high, and their pride was undiminished.
"Zhang Wenlu!" Yin Zhaoli roared.
"Here!" Zhang Wenlu stepped forward and shouted loudly.
"You're the acting company commander." Yin Zhaoli gave the order loudly.
"Yes!" Zhang Wenlu stood up and shouted loudly.
At this time, the appointment was not a peaceful era, the salary was longer, the power was greater, and the other salaries were also higher. At this time, the appointment represents a further increase in risk, a further increase in responsibility, and a further increase in the opportunity for sacrifice.
After using block tactics to encircle and destroy a considerable number of enemies, many yards and houses have been occupied by the Eighth Route Army. At this time, the bunkers on the streets are much easier to deal with.
The mortar battalion of the 771 regiment, which began to clear the streets of the bunkers.
"Boom-" "Boom-" One by one, the dark castles were blown into the sky. The corpses of the recalcitrant soldiers, the guns that were blown up, and the tattered daily necessities were scattered everywhere.
The 771st Regiment, the 21st Regiment, and the 24th Regiment are all constantly compressing forward.
The division headquarters of the recalcitrant army, about the strength of one regiment, cowered in some tall buildings in the central area of the ancient clouds. They tried in vain to rely on these sturdy buildings for their last struggle.
Yin Zhaoli's 771 regiment headquarters also moved forward, moving to a place where the soldiers could be seen charging with the naked eye.
Han Xing said to Yin Zhaoli: "According to the original plan, the battle has reached the third stage. Mortars and earth explosives should be used to get their hands dirty! ”
Yin Zhaoli said: "Yes, let Meng Zhaojin taste the power of our mortars and earth explosives!" ”
The mortar battalion began to exert its might, and in such a narrow area of the enemy, it is true that a single shell can kill a bunch of people, and there is no place to hide. And the mortar is still a curved artillery, even if you want to dodge, there is really no dead angle to dodge.
After the mortars were fired, the earth tanks also began to sort, and the wheelbarrows were covered with wet quilts, and hundreds of pounds of explosives were placed in them, and under the cover of light and heavy machine guns, they were pushed in front of these buildings.
"Boom-" "Boom-" The whole building is trembling, shaking, collapsing. First a corner of the building, then half of the building collapsed. The recalcitrant officers and soldiers inside were all buried alive, and those who were not buried alive for the time being hurriedly moved to the place, and they choked to death if they were not satisfied with the dust of the building.
Building after building collapsed, suddenly a shrapnel flew in, and Meng Zhaojin was also injured. He saw that if he continued to fight like this, one of his divisions would be wiped out sooner or later. There was no point in holding on any longer, so he had to lead his remnants to defeat the generals and desperately break through in the direction of the gap left by Gu Yunji.
Can it be so easy to break through, the 771st Regiment, the 21st Regiment, and the 24th Regiment have already formed a combined encirclement, and most of Meng Zhaojin's troops who broke through were annihilated. Meng Zhaojin's guard troops worked hard to protect Meng Zhaojin.
In fact, this fierce battle lasted for three days and four nights, killing and wounding more than 2,800 recalcitrant soldiers, and the division commander Meng Zhaojin was wounded and escaped, and our army suffered more than 500 casualties.
Our Eighth Route Army took advantage of the aftermath of the ancient gathering of the fortified position, and the Fourth Regiment of the Canal Detachment besieged Leizhuang and Zhengzhuang, and the Duan Haizhou Department fled south in a hurry. At this point, the arrogance of the recalcitrant army has been greatly reduced, and its attempt to establish a bridgehead in Puyang, Fanxian, Guanxian, and Chaocheng has been shattered.
After that, Wang Jinxiang, a diehard in the sixth district of Liaocheng, and Shi Yousan, who fled here, will talk about another diehard, Qi Zixiu.
