Chapter 215: Battle of Bernice 1

In the eighties of the nineteenth century, there was a war between China and the United States over the ownership of Montana in Mongolia, but this war can be said to be only a military conflict between the two countries, China and the United States did not declare war on each other, and even the two countries did not report much among the people. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Info.dt does not describe it in detail in the official records of the two countries, and the exact process can only be found in the military archives of the two countries.

The war or conflict went unnoticed even in the eyes of the European powers of the time, and Chinese merchants were still active in the American market, and American merchant ships were still calling at Chinese ports.

Perhaps this was indeed a conflict, so drowned in the military history of the world.

The enemy does not enmity the local enemy, and the enemy knows the yang to take revenge

March 15, 1883, 10:12 a.m

It was the Americans who fired the first shot, and a platoon of scouts from the Sixth Division approached the American defense line southwest of Bernice to reconnoitre, when suddenly the soldiers of this platoon burst out with blood and fell to the ground. After retrieving the bodies, the 6th Division presented an ultimatum to the American troops.

The 6th Division went on a full-scale offensive at eleven o'clock.

In fact, the scout of that platoon did not die at all, it was the effect of a small amount of gunpowder and plasma, and it was this technique commonly used in later movies that detonated the battle. What really scared me was the U.S. troops on the other side, Nima, we didn't shoot at all! However, the US military was well aware of all this, and many American soldiers said after the war that it was the United States that fired the gun first.

......

"What happened to Old John? Who the hell fired the shot? Kevin Codlaire is a recruit, he has only been in the army for a year, he was dumbfounded by the scene that happened less than 100 meters in front of him not long ago, he has not seen blood in the most recruit, he really hopes that his squad leader, veteran John Charles, can tell him what happened just now, Kevin has no culture, the reason why he became a soldier is completely the result of the expansion of the US army over the years, he used to be a gangster, and he was forcibly enlisted.

"Leave that alone! The Chinese will soon attack, and the boy will live then! Old John didn't have time to explain, he was a veteran of the Civil War between the North and the South, and he was already living in Montana, and this time the U.S. Army recruited some veterans from the civilian population to serve as low-level officers in order to improve the military quality of low-level soldiers, and Old John was one of them.

"Bang!" As soon as the words fell, the shells of the Sixth Division came in, but the trench where Kevin and Old John were still a little farther away.

The enemy is in the place after the ball is made by the lonely Jitong

"Quick! Drill into the anti-artillery hole, fast! As a veteran, Old John knew that the shot was fired by the Chinese, and the next wave would be difficult. The soldiers of the U.S. Army are not stupid, they all know that this is the test launch of the artillery cannon mentioned in the army drill code, and Kevin and his comrades around him quickly drilled into the anti-artillery hole. The entire line of defense is not a permanent fortification, there is no large amount of reinforced concrete, but the US 45th Division stationed in Bernice has been repeatedly reinforcing and perfecting this line for almost a month, and has a lot of experience with artillery bombardment (trench warfare was used heavily in the American Civil War).

"Boom! Boom! Boom! A series of explosions began to fall on the position, and Kevin, like many American GIs, began to pray for God's blessing, hiding in the barrage.

......

"What about our artillery?" Like John Sr., who was dodging the shells in the trenches, Martin A. Williams, the commander of the 45th Division, asked his artillery as soon as the Autonomous Army launched the bombardment. According to the later generations of the Battle of Bernice, it is the same room because Martin Williams graduated from the Imperial Army University like Min Youpeng, but Min Youpeng is the fifth and Martin is the sixteenth, so it can be said that he is a senior and a junior.

The 6th Division of the North American Autonomous Army is the standard of the local second-class division, and the whole division is equipped with 6 100-mm howitzers, 20 75-mm field guns, 10 75-mm mountain guns, 25 80-mm mortars, and 20 40-mm mortars (the number of first-class divisions increased by 470% on this basis). The 45th Division of the US Army, stationed near Bernice, had only 23 76-mm field guns, 10 53-mm mountain guns, and 60 46-mm mortars. The reason why there are a large number of mortars is also the result of the US Congress's ruffling and self-enrichment, as for why the US artillery did not fight back, it is because they have already hit the streets.

The terrain near Bernice is generally in a "T" shape, there is a river to the north of Bernice, the US army as a whole is roughly on the right side of the T-shape, the Sixth Division is attacking from the lower left of the T-shape to the upper right, and the American artillery is placed directly above the T-shape across a river, of course, the mortars are not there, and the range is not enough. The rest of the artillery set up positions on top of this T-shape, on the other side of the river.

Sun Ke Qiu Yuan's solitary knot is a ghost of cold love

As for the reason why they hit the streets, you have to ask the wolf's tooth special forces. Attacking enemy artillery has always been a course that must be mastered by reconnaissance units in special forces and regular divisions. The Sixth Division belongs to the Autonomous Territory's national defense armed reconnaissance unit and is only formed at the regimental level, and the Sixth Division has a total of six reconnaissance companies plus the wolf's tooth special forces, a total of more than 1,100 people, and they lurked to the opposite bank as early as the night before yesterday, and it was very smooth because the artillery positions of the US army were only arranged with the strength of one regiment because of the small number, about 1,000 people (the US army, including the current army forces of the great powers, are all imitating the establishment of the imperial army), and the casualties of the frontal assault must be large, and their task is only to destroy the enemy's artillery. The 40-mm mortars they brought played a decisive role just in the game.

Sun Ke, Qiu Yuan, and the Sixth Division of the Cold Soul Ghost attacked in an all-out way at eleven o'clock.

But I have to say that Martin, who is also a graduate of the Imperial Army University, did take into account the possibility of special operations, the artillery positions of the US army were quite tightly defended, and there were more than 1,000 people in the special operations team, and large-scale operations were still discovered, and the mobility of the mortars and the individual abilities of the special forces played quite well here, but even if the artillery of the 45th division was finally defeated, the special operations team and others also paid nearly 100 casualties. In fact, if it was at night, maybe there would not have been such a big casualty, but the fleeting of the fighter plane is also a helpless thing.

In any case, the artillery superiority of the 45th Division of the US Army is gone, and Min Youpeng's Sixth Division occupies an absolute advantage on the battlefield.

The artillery bombardment lasted for an hour, and the 129th Brigade of the 45th Division of the US Army, where John Sr. and Kevin were, was facing the middle of the defensive line, and the actual casualties were not large, because the artillery of the 6th Division was mainly concentrated on the north side of the 45th Division's defensive line, and China's tactics were always roundabout operations, and the southeast end of the US defense line was not a good place to attack, and it was easy to encounter crossfire from the US troops on both sides when attacking to the middle section, so the northwest side of the defense line was the most suitable and the artillery on the other side of the river had been destroyed and it was impossible to support, and it was the best breakthrough, Of course, the most important thing is that, according to the plan drawn up in advance by the division staff, the special combat team, after cutting off the artillery positions, will attack to the east and break through, interspersed with the connecting road between Bernice and Bessen, block reinforcements and cut off the supply line.

The one-hour artillery bombardment was indeed fruitful, the US 128th Brigade in the northwest section of the defense line suffered more than 500 casualties, but Martin had already transferred the 77th Task Force Brigade stationed in Bessen to Bernice, so in fact the strength of this defensive line was still there, but it was precisely so that Bessen was already empty and William Delevingne's reinforcements would arrive in a day at the earliest, of course, Min Youpeng didn't know, the wolf's tooth special forces didn't know, Martin Williams knew, he did this because he wanted to gamble, The 45th Division was certainly no match for the 6th Division, but with the 77th Task Force having more than 20,000 people, he was sure to hold out until reinforcements arrived.

This task force is his trump card, as a cadet who graduated from the Imperial Army University, Martin is definitely not a scholar or a mediocre hand, the 77 task force is the main force he carefully trained, two infantry regiments, a cavalry regiment, plus an artillery regiment and a reconnaissance company are all built according to the standards of the Chinese Standing Army.

......

"Wolf head, isn't that right? The number of artillery in the artillery positions we just knocked out is not right! There seems to be one more regiment of artillery than the information we know? "A stout man with colorful camouflage paint on his face and a young man like himself who was marching fast.

The enemy is not a ghost, Sun Cha, and the lord of the moon school

The young man didn't seem to be under 30 years old, but he was officially the captain of the wolf-tooth special forces: "Nonsense! You've just found out! So many books have been read in vain, haven't the direction of running changed? ā€

In fact, when Wolf Fang first reconnoitred the artillery position of the 45th Division, he found that the number of artillery on the position was not large, and there was only one explanation for these excesses, that is, the commander on the opposite side brought the brigade placed in Bessen to Bernice, so Bessen is definitely an empty city now, so he decided to change the initial combat objective and decided to attack Bessen.
