Chapter 63 Bombardment of Tsarist Russian Troops on the Harbor
"Youcai, there are a few orders that need to be conveyed immediately."
After the artillery position was handed over to Su San Artillery to make final preparations, Yue Weihua took Nie Youcai to the outside of the artillery position, because he suddenly thought that he seemed to have neglected a place, that is, Heihe Tuncheng.
"Commander, you command."
"First, send someone to Vlar Mountain, inform Yue Xiaodong, the commander of the third company, and ask him to take people to the outside of Heihetun City immediately, let him keep an eye on Lao Maozi inside, and be sure to give him a special explanation, to see if he can find the mountain road behind Heihetun City, which is the road that Lao Maozi came over when he sneaked up on Heihetun City, if he can find it, let him find a suitable place and prepare to ambush Lao Maozi." Yue Weihua said.
"Commander, do you mean that Lao Maozi will abandon the city and flee?" Nie Youcai said.
"Hehe, as far as I know, the total number of troops in Hailan is about 10,000, and last night we killed half of him, plus a fleet was destroyed, of course, there are also thirty cannons that are about to appear, Lao Maozi's battle losses will definitely rise, at least, their military port, Lao Tzu must give them a level.
So, if there are no reinforcements coming, Lao Maozi will definitely not dare to cross the river in the short term, so the hundreds of old Maozi in Heihe Tuncheng will not become a lone army, plus the artillery fire on our side is so strong, I guess they may escape. Yue Weihua analyzed, a battalion of old Maozi is two thousand merit points, of course Yue Weihua can't let them run.
"Yes, Commander."
"Second, let the first company hand over all the light and heavy machine guns of their company to the second and fourth companies, and then order the second and fourth companies to get their weapons, and immediately go to the direction of Heihe Tuncheng to meet Yue Xiaodong's headquarters, well, and then let the people of the first company and the sniper company rush to me to get their new equipment."
The third company of Yue Xiaodong's department, there are only one hundred and twenty people, plus Qiao San's men and horses, it is less than two hundred, even if it is an ambush, if you want to easily eat a battalion of Lao Maozi, I am afraid it is not an easy thing, of course, if you add the second company and the fourth company, plus the strong fire support of more than a dozen Makqin and nearly a hundred Madsen light machine guns, then it will be easy to pack up a battalion of Lao Maozi.
As for the new equipment of the first company and the sniper company, Yue Weihua has already thought about it, the merit tower is promoted to the second heaven, and it can be exchanged for equipment in the next twenty years, so the best light machine gun is undoubtedly the Browning 1918 light machine gun, compared to the Madsen light machine gun, the Browning 1918 light machine gun, which aspect of incompetence is several times stronger than Madsen, who is the world's first light machine gun.
The Heishui River is not narrow, the narrowest place is seven or eight hundred meters, and the width is more than 1,000 meters, whether it is an ordinary rifle or a Madsen light machine gun, their range is limited, and they cannot effectively snipe the old Maozi on the other side, but the Browning light machine gun, there is no need to worry about this, its effective range can reach more than 1200 meters.
Besides, there is no shortage of merit points anyway, and the change of outfit will have to be carried out sooner or later, if it weren't for the fact that considering the new gun also requires a familiar process, Yue Wei even planned to directly redress the whole army, and sniping Lao Maozi is not a good process of testing and practicing guns.
"Yes, Commander."
"Yes, go ahead."
……
In the early morning, the sun rises in the east.
In the early hours of the morning, the ambush battle after crossing the sea was a battle of annihilation, from the beginning of the battle to the end of the battle, less than a quarter of an hour, within this quarter of an hour, a fleet of Tsarist Russia was wiped out, and the officers and men of an integrated regiment carried with it suffered at least eighty or ninety percent of the battle losses.
On the other hand, on the side of the Black Dragon Army, although it was subjected to fierce artillery bombardment by Tsarist Russia at the last moment, it was only two soldiers who died in the second company, and more than a dozen light and serious wounded.
Of course, the Fei Qing division of the Qing army, which was on the same front as the Black Dragon Army, was not as lucky as the Black Dragon Army, and the steamer of Wendenigis sent out five or six rounds of artillery bombardment in a row, all of which fell on their positions, and then, the shells fired from the batteries on the opposite bank almost leveled the Heihetun wharf.
Fortunately, Fei Qing saw Yue Qingjie evacuate quickly with the team, and quickly withdrew, otherwise, it is not impossible for the entire army to be wiped out, even so, there are more than 300 people in the Qing army, and less than 200 survived in the end.
Although there were less than 200 soldiers, their faces were full of pride and pride, and their spirits were completely different from the embarrassment they had when they fled from the dock yesterday.
Therefore, when the bombardment stopped, Fei Qing took the officers and soldiers of the department back to the ruins of the wharf, there was no frustration in his heart, but he felt a burst of excitement, and the joy in his heart could hardly be concealed, recaptured the Heihetun wharf, and annihilated two regiments of Tsarist Russia one after another, plus a fleet, such a magnificent achievement, promotion and wealth, it was almost a sure thing, as for the more than 1,000 soldiers, there were only less than 200 left overnight, Fei Qing seemed to have forgotten selectively.
"Soldiers, this battle against the enemy, although our side suffered heavy losses, but the results of the battle are also great, I have sent someone to Aihui to explain the process of this battle, you are all meritorious people,......
Thundered!
It seems that some people are very dissatisfied with Fei Qing's invitation to merit, so someone interrupted his impassioned statement.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack."
"Get down, get down."
Fei Qing was almost the first to lie down, anxious like a lost dog, or, due to inertia, as soon as he heard the sound of the cannon, he habitually lay on the ground, the small two hundred good Qing army, the movements were really consistent, more consistent than the regular actions when they went out to exercise.
"Lord Biaotong, that cannon seems to have hit us from the other side of the Heishui River."
Soon a pro-soldier found out the truth of the shelling, and kindly reminded Fei Qing, but was glared at by Fei Qing, Fei Qing was very depressed, but he had to quickly stand up, and the pro-soldier hurriedly stepped forward to pat the dust on his body, when Fei Qing saw the flames of the pier on the opposite bank rolling, and the explosion was indecisive, he sighed: "Yue Weihua, this young man, is not simple, it is really generous." ”
Of course, it was a big deal, thirty cannons fired in unison, which was equivalent to the all-round bombardment of five Qing artillery teams and two and a half artillery battalions of Tsarist Russia.
"Oh my God, Lao Maozi, this military port, it seems that he will follow in the footsteps of our wharf."
"You see, Lao Maozi's forts have all been blown up."
"Haha, it was blown up well, you see, the steamer with the white flag just now was bombed, and it seems that the remnants of the army above will all be buried in the artillery fire."
……
These little 200 Qing soldiers became spectators on the battlefield, and when they saw that Lao Maozi's military port had suffered a devastating blow, they would burst into cheers from the bottom of their hearts, and of course, the admiration and envy cast from time to time for the combat effectiveness of the Yue clan's dart game.
Thundered!
Thundered!
……
Bang! Bang! Bang!
As soon as the five rounds of salvo fire ended, gunfire rang out again, and this was a company and a sniper company testing the guns of the old man.
"Oh my God, they're shooting at the other side, isn't that a waste of bullets?"
"Hey, this gunshot doesn't seem to be the sound of Makqin, well, it's not the sound of a rifle."
"Could it be that the Yue's dart bureau has got new equipment."
"I seem to have seen a few old hairy people being sniped in a row."
……
One hundred and fifty shells, almost a ton of ammunition, all fell into the port of the Russian army, only to see a fire in the military port, the sound of explosions everywhere, the scene was extremely chaotic, many old Maozi luckily escaped the bombardment of the artillery fire, the sound of artillery stopped, ready to flee the dock, but just appeared, did not run a few steps away, but was killed by a bullet flying from nowhere.
After all, since the construction of this military port and station, it has never been bombed, and although the shells have not fallen here for the time being, who dares to guarantee that the shells will not fly overhead in the next moment.
"Your Excellency Commander, please hurry into the artillery hole to temporarily avoid the enemy's artillery attack."
Gribsky's guards pleaded, although Lao Maozi was arrogant, but the army garrison fortifications were well built, and although the anti-artillery shelters were not as good as the later ones, it was still not a problem to defend against ordinary field artillery and heavy artillery.
"What's the hurry, the shells of the Qing army, haven't they fallen to the headquarters yet?"
Gribsky was so irritable at the moment, he lost two integrated regiments and two artillery batteries overnight, plus a fleet, but the result was only the empty city of Heihetun, and what was even worse was that the other party dared to bombard the military port, when did the Qing army have such strength and courage?
"What about Harabsky, how did the battery do it, when did it start to return fire?"
Gribsky shouted that Harabsky, the deputy commander, was an artilleryman, and was in charge of the battery, and as soon as the artillery fire rang out, he had already hurried to the dock battery position.
Although Lao Maozi was arrogant, and never thought that the weak Qing army dared to shoot at them, their forts were still very strong and the location was also very appropriate, so although the Su San Artillery also regarded the fort as one of the primary targets, it only destroyed Lao Maozi's two coastal defense guns, and three of the coastal defense guns were still unharmed.
"Damn Qinggou, you actually dare to shoot at the great Tsarist Russia, the gunner prepares, adjust the angle ......."
At the end of the five rounds of artillery bombardment, as soon as the sound of the artillery stopped, Deputy Commander Harabsky personally boarded the battery, and under his command, began to adjust the muzzle of the gun in an orderly manner, and only a few minutes later, two super-large caliber coastal defense guns began to roar, and shells weighing more than ten kilograms began to fly towards Yue Weihua's No. 2 artillery position.
"******, I'm good to be running fast."
Hundreds of meters away from the No. 2 artillery position, Yue Weihua was riding a horse with the artillery of the Soviet Third Artillery and the brothers of the reconnaissance company, and at this time the shells had already fallen near the No. 2 position, no wonder Yue Weihua made such an exclamation.
