Chapter 157: Lao Maozi Miscalculates (Ask for Collection)

The two consecutive attacks on the Liaodong Army failed, and according to common sense, Colonel Lao Maozi must have been very unhappy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

However, the regimental commander, who had already lost three or four hundred people, was not only not unhappy, but was full of confidence.

As a fairly good commander, from the battle that just ended, he was sure.

The defenders of the Liaodong Army Headquarters, although they inflicted a large number of casualties on the officers and men under their command.

However, they themselves have lost a lot.

In the battle that has just ended, if the attacking troops under his command can increase their strength, they are likely to directly enter the headquarters of the Liaodong Army.

Since there are not many defenders left in the headquarters of the Liaodong Army, as long as you concentrate your firepower and forces and attack at most once, you can completely enter the headquarters of the Liaodong Army.

As a result, the old Maozi regiment commander, who was full of confidence in the next attack, directly pressed all his remaining three full-fledged companies.

As for his own back, he handed it over to three companies that had been crippled and had a total strength of only more than 100 people.

Soon, Lao Maozi's new round of offensive began.

Two companies of eighteen heavy machine guns, divided into three, fired dense suppressive fire at the positions of the Liaodong Army.

The three fully equipped infantry companies, under the cover of heavy machine guns, quickly advanced to the positions of the Liaodong Army.

In the first two attacks, as soon as the attacking troops rushed past the 300-meter range, the defenders' light and heavy machine guns would open fire.

However, this time it didn't.

The murderous old Maozi rushed to the position of two hundred meters, and the positions of the Liaodong Army were as quiet as death, without the slightest movement.

At this time, many old Maozi had already begun to think because of this abnormal sign, and from time to time the defenders were frightened by themselves and retreated......

Whether it's true or not, as soon as this idea appears, Lao Maozi's vigilance will be unconsciously reduced a lot.

Soon, Lao Maozi rushed to the position of one hundred and fifty meters.

And the defenders' positions were still quiet, and there was no movement.

At this time, Lao Maozi's vigilance became weaker and weaker.

Just when more and more old Maozi began to think that the Liaodong Army had been beaten away by themselves.

The piercing screech of a string of cannonballs across the sky suddenly reached their ears.

Before the old Maozi, who was barely vigilant, could react from the shock, a violent explosion sounded behind them.

Of the six shells fired at Lao Maozi's heavy machine gun, only one hit the target, blowing one heavy machine gun into parts along with three machine gunners.

But even so, the remaining heavy machine gunners did not dare to stay where they were, waiting for the next round of shells to arrive at them.

As a result, Lao Maozi's remaining heavy machine guns stopped firing one after another and began to transfer.

Lao Maozi's heavy machine gun was dumb fired, and the Liaodong Army was crushed in the trench and couldn't even lift his head.

It was as if he had suddenly found an outlet to vent his anger, and quickly set up all kinds of weapons.

Then, with his fastest speed, he shot a bullet at Lao Maozi, who had already rushed to a hundred meters away.

Especially the light and heavy machine guns arranged on the position, because there was no Lao Maozi heavy machine gun fire suppression, one by one machine gunners, as if they had eaten chicken blood, frantically pulled the trigger, and shot strings of bullets at Lao Maozi.

In the blink of an eye, Lao Maozi's three companies each lost a platoon.

In order to preserve their strength, they lost the cover of heavy machine guns, and in the face of the oncoming steel storm, they could only choose to lie on the ground and shoot at the defenders of the position.

However, because the Liaodong Army suppressed them with a large number of light and heavy machine guns, even if they were lying on the ground, they were still not the opponents of the defenders. More and more soldiers, with despair and unwillingness, are falling on the battlefield.

Lao Maozi's main position, from the moment the cannon sounded on the battlefield, the confidence on the regiment commander's face disappeared.

Because, such a fierce artillery bombardment is by no means something that a remnant of a defeated army can fight.

Since the opponent is not a remnant of the defeated army, the remaining strength of the opponent is definitely beyond his estimates.

"How can this be, how can the Liaodong Army suddenly come out with so many artillery, go check it out immediately, see if the reinforcements of the Liaodong Army have returned......" The regiment commander, whose face was shrouded in worry again, frowned, and ordered loudly.

"Yes......" a staff officer hurried away.

Just as the regiment commander frowned and continued to focus on the battlefield.

A one-sided massacre against their own attacking forces began.

Watching more and more of his subordinates on the battlefield being killed by the defenders under their noses because they did not have heavy machine gun fire support.

The regimental commander immediately vented all his anger on the heavy machine gun company that was being transferred.

The whole person was like an angry lion, scolding loudly.

"What is the heavy machine gun company doing, and immediately counterattack...... Satoshi starts now, without an order, the heavy machine gun company cannot transfer positions......"

The regimental commander's murderous order was given, but it was not easy to reach the heavy machine gun company on the battlefield where the guns were constantly ringing.

When the heavy machine gun company was chased by shells, Lao Maozi, who was attacking from the front, not only had to endure the dense bullets fired by hundreds of Liaodong troops, but also had to bear the two shells that fell from time to time on his head.

Before the regimental commander's order reached the heavy machine-gun company, they had already lost more than half of them.

In the face of the increasingly fierce counterattack of the defenders, I saw the increasingly frightened expressions on the faces of my subordinates.

The old Maozi company commander who led the team knew that at this time, even if he had a heavy machine gun to provide him with fire cover, it would be impossible for him to enter the headquarters of the Liaodong Army.

Not to mention anything else, the two shells that kept falling from the top of the bald head were enough to kill and injure the remaining dozens of people in the company.

At this time, both for himself and for everyone's company commander, he decisively gave the order to retreat.

Of course, what this company commander didn't know was that it was his retreat order that sounded the clarion call for the Liaodong Army's counteroffensive.

"Holy shit, want to run...... It's too late......" As soon as Lao Maozi showed signs of retreating, Yang Xingguo's eyes shot out two fine lights, and he scolded with a burning face.

After finishing, he said directly to Zhou Qiangsheng beside him: "Order the brothers who are defending frontally to counterattack immediately...... If you don't meet resistance, you can't listen to ...... when you fight back."

"Commander...... Fight back now......" Zhou Qiangsheng asked with a suspicious expression, afraid that he had misheard.

You must know that even if Lao Maozi's attacking troops lose more than half, behind them, there are still three or four hundred remnants. More importantly, their heavy machine-gun battery, although constantly shifting, did not lose anything.

As long as the two heavy machine gun companies reacted, they could use bullets to shred the limited counterattack troops of the Liaodong Army in minutes.

Yang Xingguo did not explain, and decisively ordered: "Counterattack now, and give the order immediately......"

After finishing, he continued to order directly to a guard behind him: "Immediately send a signal to the cavalry battalion behind Lao Maozi...... Start attacking and impact Lao Maozi's main force ......"

"Order the artillerymen, continue to open fire, chase the heavy machine guns, and never let the old Maozi heavy machine guns stop......"
