Chapter 670: A dilemma
Pursued by more than 20 light machine guns, less than 10 of the dozens of Mongolian cavalry escaped the range of the light machine guns, and then fled to Tongliao City in great embarrassment. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
A few Mongolian cavalry, even if they fled into Tongliao County, they couldn't make any big waves.
Therefore, Xu Hai, the commander of the 1st Division, was very satisfied with the result of this battle, and regardless of the Mongolian cavalry that had fled to his rear, he immediately shifted his energy to the fact that the Mongolian cavalry in front of him could attack at any time.
After witnessing the annihilation of his own thousand-man army, the commander did not show much disappointment and sadness on his face.
Not only that, but the deputy general next to him even showed a little excitement on his face.
Facing the commander, he analyzed: "General, there are so many troops and firepower on the defense line of the Liaodong Army!" Otherwise, they will definitely be exposed to the attack just now. You know, just a little bit, if we break through the defense line of the Liaodong Army, the cavalry is not dozens, but hundreds. It is likely that the Liaodong Army defense line has now collapsed. ”
"Also, the attack just now made the last general see the hope of breaking through the defense line of the Liaodong Army and defeating the Liaodong Army."
"In this attack, if we can draw three thousand troops, we will definitely be able to break through the defense line of the Liaodong Army, defeat and destroy them."
The commander didn't answer immediately, and after thinking for a full two minutes, he ordered with a serious face: "I didn't find anything suspicious from the battle just now. Since the Liaodong Army has put such a big battle feat in front of us, if we eat it step by step, it will be too much to live up to the goodwill of the Liaodong Army. ”
"Immediately dispatch three thousand troops to launch an all-out attack on the defense line of the Liaodong Army. Once the Liaodong Army's defense line was broken through by us, the last thousand-man pile also took the opportunity to cover up and kill the past, striving to completely annihilate all the Liaodong Army on the defense line. ”
It took only five minutes for the 3,000 Mongol cavalry to form a powerful cavalry formation.
Then the offensive began. At the same time, 3,000 Mongol cavalry galloped wildly, raised their sabers, and rushed towards the defensive line with a roar.
The loud and roaring sound of horses' hooves was like thunder and hope sounding on the battlefield. What's more, as the three thousand Mongolian cavalry rushed closer and closer, the land defended by the Liaodong Army began to tremble slightly with the sound of horses' hooves, which was particularly scary.
"Division commander, the enemy's main force has rushed up, and there are almost three thousand cavalry, do you want to order all the light and heavy firepower to shoot!" The commander of the regiment under his command asked Xu Hai to fight with a hot face.
Xu Hai shook his head without thinking about it and replied: "It's too early, now I will expose all the capital, and I will put out nearly two hundred light and heavy machine guns at once, and I can scare these cavalry away, how can I annihilate them all." ”
"Order the light and heavy machine guns that fired just now to fire with all their might, killing and wounding as many Mongolian cavalry as possible."
"Two hundred meters, as long as they rush to two hundred meters away, all the remaining light and heavy machine guns will be laid out for me, and I will fire with all my might, and I will let the Mongolian cavalry on the opposite side know what real heavy firepower is."
"What about the artillery, our two regiments have more than 20 Guangshan guns, and nearly 40 mortars, so we can't let them be idle." The chief of staff asked.
Xu Hai didn't think about it and ordered: "After the Mongolian cavalry rushed to two hundred meters in front of the formation, all the artillery fired at the tail of the attacking troops, and I will use cannonballs to dare the Mongolian cavalry to our position and force them to die." ”
"In addition, if they want to escape for their lives, they must also be intercepted by our artillery fire, and they can only escape with our consent."
Seeing that there were still only more than 30 light and heavy machine guns on the defense line of the Liaodong Army, although the cavalry rushing in front was constantly killed and wounded, the cavalry commander was not worried at all.
He knew that as long as the strength of the Liaodong Army on the defensive line was really what he saw now, the losses in front of him would be temporary. More than 30 light and heavy machine guns on such a long defensive line definitely did not cause much damage to themselves.
As long as the troops rush over, even if they pay the loss of more than a thousand cavalry. The remaining more than 1,000 cavalry of the attacking force were still able to kill the Liaodong Army's defense line and tear it to pieces.
The battle situation was similar to what the commander expected, and the unstoppable cavalry, although they lost two or three hundred people, rushed to the position of two hundred meters in front of the Liaodong army formation.
According to the speed of the cavalry, as long as there is no accident, ten seconds into the sky, the cavalry under his command can enter the defense line of the Liaodong Army.
Just when the commander seemed to have seen the dawn of victory, more than a hundred light and heavy machine guns suddenly appeared on the defense line of the Liaodong Army.
Before the Commander could react from his astonishment, the light and heavy machine guns opened fire.
Suddenly, more than a hundred tongues of fire quickly weaved an impermeable bullet net in front of the cavalry.
At this time, no matter how the cavalry on the war horse dodged, they could only hit the bullet net.
In the blink of an eye, the Mongol cavalry that fell to the ground lost more than just now by assaulting forward a hundred meters.
What's more, with a large number of cavalry being knocked to the ground, the dense body of war horses and cavalry corpses invisibly became the best roadblock for the Mongolian cavalry to slow down the forward assault.
In order to avoid these corpses, even the Mongols, who were skilled in equestrianism, had to slow down their horses at this time, avoid the corpses of war horses everywhere, and then attack forward.
The cavalry's assault speed was slow, and the blocking fire from the Liaodong Army was impenetrable, and the entire battlefield became a slaughterhouse at this moment. The Mongol cavalry, which was unstoppable just now, now has to pay huge casualties for every step forward.
Of course, this was only the beginning for the Mongol cavalry, and as soon as nearly 200 light and heavy machine guns were fired, the artillery that had been hiding behind them also came to join in the fun. Shells with a screeching sound smashed into the middle of the cavalry as if it were raining.
The shells exploded, and all the horses and cavalry were blown up.
In addition, all of these shells were smashed at a distance of about 300 meters from the defensive line. And the tail of the three thousand Mongol cavalry rushed right here. Seeing that dozens of shells received more than a hundred cavalry lives in an instant, the remaining cavalry around them seemed to be stimulant, desperately whipping the buttocks of the war horses and rushing forward, leaving the battlefield that had been targeted by cannonballs.
The front was blocked by airtight bullets, and there were a large number of cavalry casualties in each advance. And the more corpses that fell to the ground, the slower the cavalry charged, and then more cavalry were killed, and the cycle continued, directly forming a bad cycle.
As for the back, it was not much better, one by one the shells chased after the cavalry buttocks, driving the cavalry to hit the muzzle of the Liaodong Army.
At this time, the three thousand Mongol cavalry, no, after the bloody massacre just now, there are less than two thousand left.
In the case of heavy machine-gun fire interception in front and artillery shells in the rear, they directly fell into the dilemma of not being able to advance or retreat.
