Chapter 127: Prelude to the General Offensive
Soon after, Johnson received several pieces of information one after another, all of which said that traces of the Yan and Huang Army had been found in other directions, and Johnson marked the location of the Yan and Huang Army on the map, and what made him frightened was that there were all Yan and Huang Army in the four directions of the southeast, south, and northwest, that is to say, the Yan and Huang Army had surrounded the British army unconsciously, although this encirclement is still a bit big at present, but it has taken shape, as long as you are not a fool, you can see that the four armies appeared in Zhangxian, Weiyuan, Minxian, and Dingxi.
Although he knew the direction of the Yan and Huang army, but Johnson did not know the number of people in each team of the Yan and Huang army, in this Gansu, he can be described as a blind man, and now he feels that he has really made a lot of low-level mistakes, the current China is no longer the Qing Dynasty, the Chinese army is no longer holding a big knife, spears and people desperately, and the British [***] team can no longer rampage with a few hundred people without encountering too much danger.
"It's been a long time since I've fought a big battle with the Chinese [***] team, so let me see it", at this moment, Johnson's heart is still full of arrogance, after all, it is difficult to change a person's opinion for a long time, although Johnson lost one game today.
Standing on a high slope, Wu Dingbang is holding a telescope to observe the British position, the camera shows that the British army is digging trenches and building fortifications in full swing, obviously the encirclement of the Yan and Huang troops has been discovered by them, and they are buying all the time to do a good job of defense. This time, the Yanhuang Army dispatched a total of 27 divisions and nearly 300,000 people, and Wu Dingbang was appointed as the commander-in-chief, with full authority to act as the maiden battle of the Yanhuang Army, which can be said to be under great pressure, but it also shows Wei Chendong's trust in him.
Wu Dingbang's surname is relatively straight, strategic, courageous, and dares to be the first person to eat cockroaches, he is the first to dare to challenge Wei Chendong, this matter not only did not annoy Wei Chendong, but made Wei Chendong value him more, because at this time, this kind of dare to fight, dare to rush, dare to do, courageous, strategic, calm, calm people, to Wu Dingbang, Wei Chendong is not stingy with power, the current Wu Dingbang, except for Wei Chendong, is already a figure under one person in the Yanhuang Army and above ten thousand people, Including the veterans who followed Wei Chendong before, they are not as good as him, such as Chen Bingnan, who is now only a division commander of the Eighth Army, and Xu Wenqiang, although he is the boss of the Soul Thorn Group, but in terms of status, he is still one level lower than Wu Dingbang.
Wei Chendong's requirements for military discipline are very strict, some things can be accommodating, but in the army, he is absolutely not allowed, if he has the ability, he will go up, and if he is not, even if it is his father-in-law Huang Keqiang, Wei Chendong has no favoritism, Huang Keqiang can sit in the position of division commander, completely by his own ability, Wei Chendong at most in the spare time to discuss military concepts with him, learn from each other.
After observing for a while, Wu Dingbang put down the binoculars, waved to the accompanying personnel around him, and led everyone back, as soon as he returned to the headquarters, Wu Dingbang immediately took out the map, sketched it a few times, and then quickly summarized the information he currently had, and began to discuss the next offensive matters with the staff officers.
At two o'clock, with an order. More than 40 bombers and fighters immediately rushed to the British position, and when they heard the buzzing of the planes in the distance, the British put down their tools and immediately jumped into the trenches that had not yet been dug to avoid the bombing of the Yan and Huang troops.
"Woo ......" With a burst of screams, the bombardment of the Yan and Huang Army began.
There was a rumbling sound of "boom......, the earth trembled, the debris flew, the stumps and severed arms were scattered, and the corpses were immediately thrown in all directions by the air waves, and the British soldiers below tried to crawl their bodies to the ground to avoid the bombing of the bombers and the strafing of the fighters.
Dozens of minutes passed, and the planes were withdrawn one after another. The British soldiers looked at the messy position, speechless for a long time, this was originally the scene they sent to the Yan and Huang army, but they didn't expect it to happen to them completely, the soldiers climbed out of the trenches one after another, and under the urging of the commander, they were ready to continue building fortifications.
......Suddenly, another earth-shattering bang came from everywhere, and before a shovel of dirt could be swung down, many soldiers were turned into flesh and blood in this earth-shattering explosion.
"Enemy attack, lie down", the roar was heard from all sides from time to time, and the panicked soldiers had to throw down their tools and hide in the trenches again.
This is the enemy's artillery bombarding the already position, and this kind of beating is really uncomfortable.
Shells rained down on the British positions, leaving the already weak defensive positions even more in shambles, and some soldiers were buried alive by the soil kicked up by the shells, or stoned to death by heavy objects falling from high altitudes.
The British army, which was accustomed to fighting a combined war of arms, was obviously not suitable for this kind of battle that relied solely on army infantry, and the soldiers' combat confidence was rapidly declining.
It was another few dozen minutes of artillery preparation, and the entire position was almost plowed over, but fortunately, the fortifications were hastily built earlier, otherwise the casualties would have been greater.
Knowing that the attack of the Yan and Huang army was about to begin, the British army also gave up the plan to continue building fortifications, and quietly lay in the trench and waited for the Yan and Huang army to attack.
Time passed slowly, and the Yan and Huang troops did not wait, but waited for a group of planes to come, and after dropping a bomb all over the world, they flew away, and then another artillery fire was prepared.
I don't understand what the Yan and Huang army want to do, do they just want to use these planes and artillery to crush the British army?
This time again, the ground attack of the Yan and Huang Army still did not take place, and if the Yan and Huang Army did not attack again, it would be dark.
Just when the British thought that the Yan and Huang troops were going to give up the attack, at half past five in the afternoon, only a rumbling sound was heard from a distance, accompanied by dust and mist.
"Ah, armored troops", the British commanders and fighters gasped, there are no heavy weapons in their hands at the moment, what are these iron lumps used to knock out.
"Report, it was discovered that the enemy tank unit was rushing towards our army from the direction of Dongjiabao, and another tank unit was found to be rushing towards our army from the direction of Xisanlipu...... "The intelligence officer handed over the latest information to Johnson one by one.
It is said that it is an armored force, in fact, it can't be called at all, at present, the number of all tanks in the Yan and Huang Army adds up to more than 110 vehicles, this time they were all sent out, divided into two teams, attacking from two directions, each team of more than 50 vehicles, but at present, the British scouts have neither time nor conditions to reconnoiter these clearly, so under the estimate, it is considered to be an armored force, after all, the Yan and Huang Army even have air force formations, and it is not uncommon to have armored troops, in fact, the Yan and Huang Army's planes add up to more than 100, When bombing the British artillery positions, all of them were dispatched, and after they went back, they did not stop, immediately refueled and reloaded, and quickly bombed the British positions in batches, so in the eyes of the British army, there were many planes of the Yan and Huang Army, but in fact, the command of the Yan and Huang Army accurately seized the time interval, and just let the bombing complete a cycle, as if countless planes were lining up to bomb them.
Hearing that the Yanhuang Army had armored troops rushing towards the position, Johnson was really a little panicked now, after all, the tank was invented by the British, and they naturally knew the power, when did the Chinese get so many tanks and planes unknowingly? This question has always bothered Johnson, after all, he knows that China is very poor, and even Chiang Kai-shek's [***] troops are not so extravagant, how did he Wei Chendong do it, is this guy rich and rival the country? Is it really dug up from the ancestral grave of Indian Ahsan? That's, isn't it?
Not only does Johnson not know Wei Chendong's way of getting money, I'm afraid that there is no second person in the whole world who knows that he really has a few money-making projects, if it weren't for the fact that Gansu is too remote, transportation and so on are too backward, the equipment of the Yan and Huang Army will definitely be far more than these.
At present, the world knows that Wei Chendong has stolen a large number of tombs in India and obtained a lot of cultural relics, but what it is, no one knows, the captives captured by the British know only the tip of the iceberg, and some forces know that Wei Chendong has also made a lot of money in the United States, how much he has earned, and few people know, a lot of money Wei Chendong has been washed through the ** forces, and the dp business that the world does not know is also in full swing, when the Golden Triangle stabilizes, Wei Chendong immediately secretly arranged several henchmen to go to the Silver Triangle, the Golden Crescent, and the Bekaa Valley in Lebanon, so that the world's four major DP production areas were infiltrated by him, the Golden Triangle is the strongest, and the other three places are also developing strongly.
Although many countries have found out the main source of DP production, no one would have thought that the biggest black hand behind this is Wei Chendong, and there are no more than five people in the world who know that Wei Chendong sells D, including Wei Chendong's wives, and only one person who knows that the four places in the world are controlled by Wei Chendong, that is Zhang Changyun, because the people and horses in the other three places are carefully selected from the Golden Triangle. The dp business makes a lot of black money, which is a naked profiteering, and the British have made a lot of money in the Asian market, not to mention that Wei Chendong is facing the world market, maybe less than the British?
In addition, Wei Chendong also occupied the largest gold mine in Asia, Yangshan Gold Mine, because it is in Gansu, and now Gansu is the world of the Yan and Huang Army, and there should be no problem with secrecy mining, even if the outside world knows, with the deterrent power of the Yan and Huang Army, I believe that no other forces will come to rob him without a long eye, after all, the gold content of this gold mine is not known to him Wei Chendong, I am afraid that no one believes that this is the largest gold mine in Asia, according to the magic mobile phone detection and estimate, The value of this gold mine is converted into the current money, at least more than 10 billion, in this year, it is very remarkable, this gold mine alone can make Wei Chendong the richest man in the world, not to mention other profiteering projects?
Wei Chendong has never revealed these money-making projects to others in his life, so many of them have become eternal mysteries and are buried in the torrent of history.
