Chapter 425: Attack on the Station

Cai Yi was here at Zhangjiakou Station, waiting safely, ready to use solid defense and artillery to give the Beiyang Army a head-on attack, and the military camp of the sixth town on the other side was miserable. ~

A large number of wounded soldiers, as well as many soldiers in confusion, it can be said unceremoniously that the loss of a large number of low-level officers is the biggest loss this time, without the comfort and guidance of low-level officers, they don't know what to do, if it is not for the elusive sharpshooters, they may be outside, they may mutiny, and now like a lost dog, timidly and trembling hiding in the barracks, panic all day.

At this time, after hearing the introduction of the special forces to the sixth town, Cai Ye was also slightly moved, if a regiment was sent to carry out a sneak attack, maybe he could take all of these, but after thinking about it, he still resisted this temptation, the new army is a newly established army, even if it is the most powerful first division, they only have the habit of fighting bandits and horse thieves, bandits and horse thieves compared with the regular army, I don't know how much.

After all, the new army is a new army, I have never seen blood, I have no experience in attacking tough battles, and it is better to say a little about the downwind battle and defensive battles, once the battle is fought, a little bit unsmooth, maybe it will be a big rout, the headquarters will give him the opportunity to fight in the first place, he must win in one battle, and he cannot weaken the prestige of the three heroes.

The chaotic Beiyang military camp was not until the follow-up troops arrived, especially when Zhao Guoxian came, looking at the qi in front of him, he almost turned his back on his back, and the rear knew the situation and knew that there were heavy casualties, but he didn't expect that there would be such a big casualty. The direct casualties and losses exceeded 2,500 people, which is almost a target combat force. In particular, the almost total extinction of the rank and file officers and technical arms is essential for future reconstruction and restoration. It's a lot of pressure.

At present, the Qing government has not yet perished, and the era of warlords has not yet come, but since ancient times, the strength of China's military leaders has not been the soldiers at hand, and without the backing of military forces, the position is also unstable.

The Sixth Town didn't dare to move forward at all at this time, but just set up camp and sparkled with blood. Let them arrange the camp very solidly, from the outside to the inside, even much safer than the camp once stationed, which also makes it impossible for the special combat team members to start.

Although it is said that the special forces have undergone extremely rigorous training, even in such a situation, they can find opportunities and even kill and injure some opponents, but at such a cost. It's really too big, and with the money of special combat soldiers, it is almost equivalent to the input of 50 infantrymen, so it's good to think about it. In the end, under Lan Rongzeng's orders, only a few personnel remained. continued to monitor the Beiyang Army, and all the rest retreated.

The gunfire gradually stopped. But the spirit of the Sixth Town was tense until the Fifth Town came up. only to relax.

Zhang Yongcheng, the commander of the fifth town, when he saw Zhao Guoxian, laughed at him, he really didn't know how to fight, in the face of the rabble, he was still so hard, he lost his troops and lost his generals, and he actually used Zeng Wenzheng's moves, and the method of forming a stunned formation was already behind this era.

Facing Zhang Yongcheng's ridicule, this made Zhao Guoxian very angry, and an evil fire in his heart wanted to be sent out, but Zhao Guoxian endured it, and their morale in the fifth town had been hit.

Itself, according to the schedule, the task of the first attack is to be handed over to the sixth town, which is also Zhao Guoxian finally fought for, and now he has to hand over the task of storming Zhangjiakou to the sixth town, and the sixth town also took it over naturally, in Zhang Yongcheng's view, it was Zhao Guoxian who gave him the credit.

The small station is only 50 miles away from Zhangjiakou, and if you walk, that is, in two days, you will arrive, along the railway, all the way, almost at night, you will stop, and the special forces that have not appeared for more than a day will appear again.

The tight defense of the sixth town gave the special forces no chance to start, but the new fifth town, although it paid more attention to it and protected the special forces, but it had never suffered a loss, and it was impossible to prevent it at all, not to mention that it was a field camp, and the cold guns continued all night, which made the fifth town suffer a lot, Zhang Yongcheng only then understood what the sixth town encountered, in the dark night, in the face of an unfamiliar environment, they could only wait patiently, fortunately, in addition to not sleeping well, the casualties were not large.

It took longer than usual, and finally arrived in Zhangjiakou, and out of the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway, through guò scouts, Zhang Yongcheng knew that Baotou was waiting for him, not far away, the newly built Zhangjiakou Railway Station was waiting for him, and he walked for three days one after another, he didn't want to continue to wait for the black guns, and directly ordered the troops, rushing over there, in his opinion, except for those grasshoppers who hit the black guns, the rest were all rabble.

When Zhangjiakou Railway Station appeared in his eyes, he sighed, Zhangjiakou Railway Station is really very large, with a lot of territory, there is no attention at all, semi-permanent bunkers, Baotou bunkers, and most of the bunkers in this era are not the same, most of the bunkers in this era are higher, even spired, in order to prevent shells from penetrating the top, after all, in this era, the cement marking, relatively small, hardness or something, are insufficient, as long as there is artillery fire from above, It is easy to penetrate, so some bunkers and fixed fortresses are relatively clear.

After more than 3 years of development, the cement plant has become a huge enterprise with tens of thousands of employees and an annual output of more than 10 million tons of cement, not only with ordinary cement, but also with more than 100 types, different grades of cement, these cements have been scientifically proportioned, the finished reinforced concrete, harder than stone, in the face of this era, there is no armor-piercing shell and special shell fire, 50 cm of cement thickness is enough.

After referring to some experience of later generations, mainly the shots in some war movies, and referring to the arrangement of some dark fire points, these permanent fire points arranged in Zhangjiakou are basically semi-submersible, completely different from ordinary bunkers that are a few meters high and very eye-catching, Zhang Yongcheng only paid attention to the upstairs of Zhangjiakou Railway Station, but there were no sandbags and machine gun positions in the window, and there was no roof, he was slightly sunny, and he didn't pay too much attention to it.

As for the neat barbed wire in front, Zhang Yongcheng didn't care too much, these things, looking like graffiti, could not be a few broken wooden sticks and thin wires, it can block the army, after all, on the battlefield in China, there has never been a barbed wire, even during the Russo-Japanese War, Japan and Russia, are not extremely industrially developed countries, Japan's steel is almost half of the shape, they did not use it at all, but Baotou, has always used this flexibly.

With the help of a special winch, it only takes three or four soldiers at most, and it takes more than ten minutes to complete the laying of 3-5 kilometers of barbed wire, according to the standardization, 20 centimeters in a row, a row of 1.5 meters high, that is, 7 rows of wire, at most two oblique inserts, at least 2 kilometers of barbed wire defense line can be operated in an hour.

For the defense of a fixed position, 2 kilometers is enough to lay three or four layers of defense, the role played is absolutely huge, barbed wire, the biggest role on the battlefield, is not to kill, although there are iron thorns on it, in ordinary days, such a layer of barbed wire, even if it is a child, holding a few bricks, can also open the line of defense, but on the battlefield, it is a huge killing weapon, creatures are afraid of pain, barbed wire and barbs, will make any person who forcibly passes, suffer great pain, seek advantage and avoid harm, Barbed wire has a huge deterrent effect, not to mention a barbed wire can hinder three to five minutes, even if it is one or two minutes, or even tens of seconds, it has already adjusted the shooting of Zhuyuan, and even the Makqin machine gun that has no obstruction in front of the barbed wire will make all the enemy troops gathered in front of the barbed wire try the power of automatic firearms, machine guns, bunkers and barbed wire, it is simply a perfect match, a perfect match for killing.

Such a position that is ready to be battled and armed to the teeth, in the case of World War II, or in European positional warfare, will definitely not rush into this place, armed to the teeth, lightly fill thousands of corpses, without artillery preparation, or with the help of weapons such as tanks, no one will touch this thing.

It's a pity that Zhang Yongcheng didn't know this at all, the soldiers on this side pressed on, and the other side didn't even react at all, hiding in the building, the building could be safe, and under the bombardment of the cannon, they all fell soon.

The cannon is ready, the officers give an order, 25 Krupp 75 guns are ready, looking at these heavy guns, Zhang Yongcheng's face showed a smile of relief, compared to others, only this cannon is the best partner, 25 cannons, almost all of them sounded at the same time, bursts of gunsmoke were filled, and a base of artillery fire was ready to be completed, and then he waved his hand and ordered: "Give me a charge." ”

This is the standard Beiyang Army's fighting style, artillery preparation, Makqin presses the formation, and then the infantry group charges, and the army that is blinded by artillery cannot resist the impact of such a group at all, and most of them are defeated with one blow.

On the other side, quietly, there was no reaction, as if there was no one in it, and the gunpowder smoke had not completely dispersed, but in the gunsmoke, the Zhangjiakou Station Building, there was almost no damage, a base, hundreds of shells down, at most it shattered some glass, the main body of the building, without the slightest damage.
