Chapter 965: The Capture of Stone (5)

Yunpan Mountain is about 15 meters above the ground, about 200 meters in radius, it was originally an ancient tomb of Zhang Er, the king of Hengshan Mountain in the Western Han Dynasty, because "looking up at the potential of even clouds, overlooking like grinding a plate", so it is commonly known as "Yunpan Mountain". However, at this time, people did not know that Yunpan Mountain was actually a Han tomb, but only knew that it resembled an arrow tower in the northeast of Shijiazhuang, which was an important barrier in Shijiazhuang.

If it is left in the mountains, Yunpan Mountain is inconspicuous, at best it is a small mound, but it becomes a commanding height on this great plain. The Shijiazhuang garrison of the Japanese army took Yuntai Mountain as an important fulcrum of the stone defense line to build, dug two ring fortifications, and there were trenches in the middle to communicate, with open and hidden forts, and a squadron was stationed all year round. The squadron headquarters is located in the temple at the top of the mountain.

After Liu Jianli and Zhao Jie led the Second Brigade and the New Eighth Brigade to arrive at the designated place in concealment, they asked the artillery regiment of the Second Brigade to quickly establish a position, and the Flying Thunder Artillery Regiment under the command of the Flying Thunder Artillery Regiment was digging a pit and burying the hair color tube at the foot of Yunpan Mountain. This time, the movement was a bit big, the little devils on Yunpan Mountain seemed to have noticed it, the sentries shot to call the police, and the soldiers were also awakened from their sleep and hurriedly entered the position.

The Eighth Route Army did not fire guns or artillery, but only seized the time to establish a flying thunder artillery position. Simply ignore the fire reconnaissance of the little devils.

As soon as the Flying Thunder Artillery Regiment had set up its position, Ding Zhuodong, deputy political commissar of the artillery brigade and commander of the Flying Thunder Artillery Regiment, received Li Chang's order to open fire. According to the battle plan, the artillery regiment of the Second Brigade and the Flying Thunder Artillery Regiment simultaneously covered Yunpan Mountain with firepower, completely destroying the little devils in the ring fortifications and pillboxes. Ding Zhuodong immediately ordered the cannon to be fired.

After all, the flying thunder cannon is an earthen weapon invented by our army, and the color speed is not as fast as that of field artillery and mountain artillery. Just when the soldiers lit the fuse of the hair color, the artillery regiment of the Second Brigade had already let out an angry roar, and the forty-eight field artillery opened fire on Yunpan Mountain. The shells exploded over the Japanese army's ring fortifications, and in an instant the position of the little devils was blown into dust. By the time the bombing of the Flying Thunder Artillery Regiment flew towards the Japanese position, the artillery regiment of the 2nd Brigade had already begun the second round of shelling.

Although the Flying Thunder Artillery Regiment has a slow color speed, it is superior in numbers. There are two hair color tubes in one class, and there are about 200 hair color tubes in the whole group, and one round of bombing is 200 fried yà packs. If you get close to the shelling, the effect is even better than that of an artillery regiment.

The Flying Thunder Artillery Regiment only had three rounds of color, and Ding Zhuodong ordered the artillery bombardment to be extended. Because the Fourth Regiment has already been killed.

Good steel is used on the cutting edge. Yunpan Mountain is the commanding heights of Shien, and the rapid capture of Yunpan Mountain is of great significance to the rapid attack on Shien City.

After accepting the task, Zhang Minsheng, the commander of the Fourth Regiment, and He Ke, the political commissar of the Fourth Regiment, combined with the experience of capturing the mast of the commanding heights of Lianyungang last time, concentrated the infantry artillery, grenadiers, and mortars of the whole regiment as the infantry support fire for the approaching artillery bombardment, and carried out a clear strike on the Japanese army's firepower points. The bazooka groups of the battalions and companies followed the infantry and were designed to deal with the bunkers that had slipped through the net after the artillery fire had covered them. In Zhang Minsheng's words, this is to arrange the artillery fire in layers, maintain the continuity of heavy firepower, and not give the little devils any respite.

Zhang Minsheng was afraid that the firepower would not be enough, so according to Liu Yimin's request, he ordered the fire support battalion to study the use of mortars to blow up the bomb, so that it would be more flexible than the flying thunder cannon and the accuracy of the strike would be higher.

The mortar itself was developed for the purpose of destroying the enemy in the trenches, and the use of mortars to blow up yà bags was an invention and creation of our Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Field Army when it captured Yunpan Mountain in history. It is precisely because of the combat technology of mortar color bombing that the Jin-Cha-Ji Field Army was able to attack Yunpan Mountain relatively smoothly.

At present, the artillery technology of our army in Shandong is much more advanced than that of the historical Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Field Army. Under the guidance of the Artillery Regiment of the Second Brigade and the Flying Thunder Artillery Regiment, this evening, the Fire Support Battalion of the Fourth Regiment of the Fourth Regiment will practice using mortars to blow up their bags.

The Japanese army in Yunpanshan has only one squadron, and if the Eighth Route Army does not have an artillery regiment and a flying thunder artillery regiment, the little devils can still hold on to the ring fortifications, and maybe they can repel several attacks by the Second Brigade. You must know that in the battle of Guanjiayuan, which was carried out in the third stage of the Hundred Regiments War in history, 500 people of the Japanese Okazaki Brigade relied on the highland ring fortifications to resist the siege of 20,000 troops of three brigades and two regiments of the Eighth Route Army under the personal command of Mr. Peng. It's a pity that it's not history, and Yunpan Mountain doesn't have the kind of dangerous terrain as Guanjiayuan. This squadron of the Japanese army was doomed to total annihilation.

When the shelling began, Teng Xinxing, commander of the third battalion and the first company of the New Fourth Regiment, led the whole company to launch an attack on Yunpan Mountain.

After Teng Xinxing was wounded in the battle of Longhai Road last year, he lay in the field hospital of the Second Brigade for three months. In these three months, Teng Xinxing thought most about how to deal with the Japanese army's ring fortifications. Because the civil engineering technology of the little devil is very advanced, there are cat ears in the ring fortifications, which can evade shelling, which is similar to the construction of anti-artillery dòng by our army. After thinking about it, Teng Xinxing felt that there were two ways to deal with the Japanese army's circular fortifications, one was to accurately hit heavy artillery shells into the devil's circular fortifications and blow up the Japanese army's cat ears. The other is to compare the speed, before the artillery bombardment begins, the infantry immediately launches an attack, and as soon as the artillery fire extends, the troops will approach the Japanese annular fortifications within 50 meters, concentrate on throwing grenades, and use grenades to kill and injure the Japanese troops in the circular fortifications, or suppress the Japanese troops hiding in Mao'er dòng and cannot come out, so as to buy time for our army to break through the circular fortifications.

Teng Xinxing wrote his thoughts into a short article called "Circular Fortification Assault Tactics", which was published in the magazine "Tactics of the Eighth Route Army" sponsored by the first branch of Kang University. After Liu Yimin read it, he also wrote a letter to Teng Xinxing, praising him as an excellent infantry company commander who was good at thinking.

Before the attack was launched, Teng Xinxing gathered the whole company and explained his battle plan to the soldiers. Teng Xinxing's request is to move in advance to meet the enemy, launch an attack when our artillery is covered, and move within 50 meters of the devil's ring fortification when the artillery fire extends. At this time, the whole company concentrated on throwing bombs, and whoever could not throw grenades into the ring fortifications immediately went to the fire support battalion to carry the shells, and the third company did not want to be a soldier like a girl. After occupying the first circular fortification of the Japanese army, it is necessary to make clear the devils hiding in the cat's ear dòng and talk to them with a bazooka. Then the whole company quickly launched an attack on the second ring of fortifications. Until the top of the mountain, put the military flag on the Yunpan Mountain.

Teng Xinxing led the three companies to move quickly towards Yunpan Mountain under the cover of artillery fire, and the soldiers worked in groups of three, with a board on their heads, and a board covered with loess for camouflage, and under the cover of night, they reached the foot of Yuntai Mountain. When the little devil was scouting, the bullet hit the loess on the top of the board, and it fluttered. Several fighters were hit, and the blood and loess were together and clotted into blood clots.

The artillery fired, Teng Xinxing threw away the plank above his head, and ordered the whole company to move forward quickly. On his left and right flanks were the first and second companies of the first battalion. Behind them was the fire support battalion personally led by Zhang Minsheng, the head of the Fourth Regiment.

At this time, it is the time when our artillery fire is covered, and accidental injuries may occur at any time. However, in order to solve the defenders of Yunpan Mountain in a battle, Teng Xinxing couldn't care so much, he also believed in our army's infantry and artillery coordination tactics, and he took the lead and led the whole company to quickly engage the enemy.

The battlefield movement of the main force is about tactical movements. If Liu Yimin was here at this time to watch the action of the Fourth Regiment to meet the enemy, he would definitely be overjoyed. The tactical movements he taught during the passage have now been used by the soldiers, and are much more practical than the battlefield movements in the war movies of later generations.

When the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army was extended, Teng Xinxing led the third company to move to the first circular fortification of the Japanese army 30 meters. A good old Balu Teng new star, shouted "throw grenades", and as soon as his hand was raised, a grenade was thrown into the ring fortification of the little devil.

As early as the time of the Red Seventh Army, Liu Yimin's requirement for the main force was that grenades should be able to be thrown 60 meters away, and for this reason, all units listed intensive physical training as one of the main subjects of daily training. The 2nd Brigade is the main force of our army, and the distance of only 30 meters is a piece of cake for the soldiers.

The artillery fire was so fierce that the first ring fortification of the Japanese army had long been blown to pieces. After only one round of grenades, Teng Xinxing jumped up and rushed into the first circular fortification of the Japanese army with his Bayi automatic rifle.

The Japanese army's ring fortifications were horrific and littered with stumps and blown guns. The artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army was too fierce, and most of the little devils in the ring fortifications on the front were torn apart by the shells before they could drill the cat's ears. Those who were lucky enough to keep their bodies intact were also shocked to death by the explosive bags that flew later.

Teng Xinxing left a squad to search for the remnants of the enemy, and he led the company to pounce on the devil's second ring fortification.

By this time, the Eighth Route Army had already torn apart the Japanese defense line at Yunpan Mountain.

Speed, speed, all that is needed now is the speed of the attack, and it is necessary to rush into the second ring of fortifications before the remnants of the Japanese army are knocked unconscious by artillery fire

At this moment, a Japanese bunker that had slipped through the net under artillery fire opened fire. Da

Teng Xinxing shouted "lie down", pounced forward, lay on the ground, handed out the Bayi automatic rifle in his hand, and opened fire to cover the troops.

After the shuttle was finished, Teng Xinxing turned his head and shouted: "Bazooka group, knock out the devil's firepower point for Lao Tzu"

A bazooka group moved up from behind, so close to the distance, a little aim, a rocket dragged a long wing of light and flew towards the Japanese army's bunker, boom, the devil's bunker flew into the sky.
