Chapter 290: Dig a small pit for Chairman Chiang
There weren't so many shells, and crowd tactics were the only way to crack trench warfare.
Of course, there were gas bombs, but like the chariot wing, the Black God Army had already prepared. The North China Dispatch Army has already used it, but it has no effect. It is clear that the Chinese army was trained in gas warfare.
Poison gas bombs, as long as you don't panic, are prepared, and know how to deal with them, they don't have much effect.
Therefore, there is no other way but to exchange your life.
The devils who rushed into the green gauze tent jumped into the trench as soon as possible.
They have to jump, that's the order.
The Battle of Shanhaiguan, which wiped out the entire army of Gu Shoufu's division, has become a classic battle, and the machine gun bunker is a classic among the classics.
In these green gauze tents, which were cut into pieces, only a heavy machine gun bunker was sufficient.
There were explosions everywhere.
In front of the big front was overwhelming artillery fire, and the green gauze tent that was cut into pieces was also fried into a pot of porridge.
The little devil is a grenade to open the way, and when he sees the hole, he throws it into the hole, and if he feels wrong, he throws it wherever he goes, in short, the melon grenade is flying all over the sky.
But Rao is like this, this is still called his own hell.
There were mines in the trenches, and it seemed that there were mines buried everywhere.
The mines here are not very powerful, the radius of power does not exceed a meter, and they are clearly tailor-made for trench warfare.
These mines gave the attacking army a stick.
In addition, the little devil also suffered a big loss in weapons, the spear was not allowed in the trench, and the Black God Army, except for the machine gunners hidden in the bunker, was either a box gun with twenty rounds or an imitation submachine gun.
There are many large and small holes in the wall of the trench. The large entrance of the cave is one meter in diameter, and the smaller one is no more than half a meter.
Most of these openings are dead, but a few are alive. The death hole is used to confuse little devils, and the deepest one is no more than one meter three. There are horizontal walls in the live hole, and the little devil is a blind cat who encounters a dead mouse, and throwing a grenade into the live hole will not cause any damage, at most it will blow up the live hole.
-- Liu Dali and Li Tiesheng leaned their heads against the entrance of the cave and lay on their backs on a wooden plank. At their feet, Liu Hu and Zhang Yicheng stood respectively.
There are buckles under the wooden board, and Liu Hu and Zhang Yicheng's job is to push Liu Dali and Li Tiesheng out, and then pull them back.
The entrance of the cave where Liu Dali was lying was higher, and the entrance of the cave where Li Tiesheng was lying was lower, with a difference of about 50 centimeters. They are one meter apart, and there is a small round hole with a thick bowl mouth in the middle of the soil layer to communicate them.
The entrance to the cave is closed, and from the outside, it looks like it is full of potholes. In this case, the little devil can't see anything wrong at all.
They were not idle, and they all had a small periscope hanging over their heads, and the periscope peeked through the crack in the hole to observe the situation in the trench.
The periscope is also well camouflaged, and if you don't look closely, it's just a lump of dirt. Moreover, it doesn't move much, and most of the time it's fixed.
The two have a clear division of labor, Liu Dali is on the right, and Li Tiesheng is on the left.
-- Jun Cao Lin Sangoro led more than a dozen devil soldiers, with cats bent on their waists and big guns, searching and advancing in the trenches that turned in the curves.
It's so awkward!
At first, they threw grenades into the hole with great vigor, but after a while, no one threw them, even if from time to time, their noses were swollen from grenades thrown from the hole, they didn't throw them casually, because there weren't so many grenades.
In the end, they didn't damn it, they simply ignored the holes, and only when they did see a grenade thrown out of the hole, they would throw grenades into it.
-- Liu Dali and Li Tiesheng are both in the same posture.
The periscope hung above, and when you opened your eyes, you could see that they were all holding submachine guns on their chests in one hand, and the other hand was reaching over their heads, clasping the handle of the secret door that covered the hole.
Suddenly, Li Tiesheng whispered, "One, two, three!" ”
The word "three" exited, Liu Dali and Li Tiesheng pushed the secret door up at the same time, and they were also pushed out of the small half of their bodies.
"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ......" As soon as Liu Dali and Li Tiesheng's bodies poked out of the hole, they both turned sideways, Liu Dali to the right, Li Tiesheng to the left, and the submachine guns in their hands shot fiercely.
They just inserted themselves in the middle of the dozen devils, and in just a moment, the raid was over, and all the dozen devils were killed.
As Liu Dali and Li Tiesheng's stinky feet swayed, they were slammed back to the entrance of the cave.
As soon as Liu Dali and Li Tiesheng retracted into the entrance of the cave, they both raised their hands, reached to the top of the cave, and pulled down, and the entrance of the cave was covered again.
No sooner had they done this than at least ten grenades exploded in the trench.
The little devil is really not covered, the reaction is super fast, as long as it is slow, then it will have to be finished.
After the hole was closed, a periscope the size of a beer bottle cap came out through the gap.
A large group of devils rushed over, and they threw grenades into the hole in a chaotic manner.
The ditch bends in the wind, and the section where Liu Dali and Li Tiesheng are waiting for the rabbit is fifteen or sixteen meters straight. After the last devil turned around, they opened the hole again.
This time, Liu Dali and Li Tiesheng's task was to cover.
At the same time, opposite them, a hole was also opened, and Wang Damin crawled out of it.
Descending into the trench, Wang Damin took out a bundle of grenades from the hole.
In their group, Wang Damin is a master of bomb throwing. Wang Damin threw the bomb, not only far, but also more accurately, which was not said at hand. Within 50 meters, Wang Damin would never throw a grenade outside the trench.
The strings of the grenades were pulled out, and Wang Damin arranged the grenades in a row, and then began to throw the grenades out one by one lightly.
Wang Damin threw the bomb very quickly, but that posture was so elegant.
There were eight grenades in a bundle, and they were all thrown, and there was 99 percent certainty that they would not eat the little devil's melon grenades.
It's all calculated with precision, and it's easy to make mistakes.
-- The entire Baoding defense area is divided into three parts: the outer area, the city defense area, and Baoding City.
The city defense area is the area of 20 miles around Baoding City, and is subdivided into six sub-districts, Chou District, Yin District, Mao District, Shen District, and You District, among them, the attack area demarcated by Matsui Shigen is within the scope of Mao District.
Responsible for the defense of the Mao area is the 11th Brigade of the 4th Division of the 2nd Army of the Black God Army, and the brigade commander is He Youguo.
As his strength swelled, Han Lihong's ideas also changed.
On the strategic position, Baoding is not the heart of Hebei, but the heart of North China, if the ambition is in the whole of North China, Baoding is the place to take.
At the beginning, when his strength was not good, Han Lihong's idea for Baoding City was a bit of petty theft, but with the rapid expansion of his strength, his thoughts about Baoding were changing, and every time he changed, his investment in Baoding City would skyrocket.
The latest change was made possible by a change in the vision of China's future development, and it was this change that Han Lihong's investment in Baoding reached a level of recklessness.
He wanted to turn Baoding into a nightmare for himself, at least in the short term, and completely put an end to the idea of launching a war of aggression against China.
If you can really do this, no matter what the cost, it will be worth it ten million times. To this end, with Baoding City as the core, Han Lihong ordered the construction of huge underground fortifications.
In the six districts of Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Shen and You, each district has an underground fortification.
In each of the underground fortifications, there were both headquarters and small field hospitals, which were intended for the wounded who needed immediate surgery.
In addition, the underground fortifications were also hidden soldiers' caves, and during the large-scale bombardment by the devils, most of the more than 3,000 officers and men of the brigade had to hide in the underground fortifications.
Because of such a large-scale construction, cement and steel bars are greatly insufficient, so it has to be simplified, only the central underground fortifications are built indestructible, and most of the others are earth holes.
The entire underground fortification is a big labyrinth, not to mention the little devil who breaks the underground fortification, is to find the underground fortification ten meters underground, and its possible surname is also infinitely tending to zero.
The main reason for such a complex construction is the lack of cement and steel bars, because in order to prevent the passage from being blown down, it is necessary to build several more passages leading to various positions.
Then, from this idea, in order to ensure that the soldiers in each position can safely withdraw to the core underground fortifications, is it necessary to build more passages?
This road is blocked, and there is that road; That road is gone, there is another way...... Anyway, manpower has never been a problem to consider, for this reason, the whole underground fortification is more than a spider web, and this spider web is still three-dimensional.
In the war room, it was very busy, but the atmosphere was quite relaxed.
The 11th Brigade does not have the task of having a hard surname, it has to defend anywhere, their task is to kill the little devils, and the killing of the little devils is mainly hunting and attacking, and the casualties are incredible.
The three walls of the south, east and west are all large blackboards, all painted with white, red, blue, and pink chalks.
This is a sketch of the position.
Staff officers shuttled back and forth, updating the data above.
In addition, there is also a blackboard on the north wall near the door, but it is relatively small, with rows of numbers on it.
The number word is divided into two parts, one is to determine the number of enemies killed, and the other is to estimate the number of enemies killed.
The so-called definite number was killed by gun, and the "estimate" was blown up by throwing a grenade.
Every 10 minutes, a staff officer in charge updates the numbers.
Brigade Commander He Youguo was relaxed, and the energy bubbled out from the cracks in his bones.
No matter how good things are, they will not really have a bottom in their hearts if they are not practiced, especially on the battlefield where thousands of people are fighting. Now, after most of the day's fighting, it has been clearly shown that the course of the battle is basically in line with the expectations in advance, and there are no major mistakes.
In fact, not to mention that he is the brigade commander, even the regiment commander and battalion commander are of great use, and those small company commanders at the grassroots level are basically all arranged.
Also, the devil threw 20,000 or 30,000 people down, looking not old or young, but as soon as he spilled it, it was like sprinkling pepper noodles into a cauldron.
In fact, only three of them were soldiers of the 11th Brigade in one hunting team, and the rest were auxiliary personnel, and the hunting team composed of three soldiers basically killed double digits in just a few hours.
Enjoyable!
"Old Wu, you have made a great contribution this time!" He Youguo smiled at Chief of Staff Wu Qiang.
The tone of this model of war was established by Han Lihong, but the specific content is that everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high, which is the crystallization of the wisdom of the masses.
Wu Qiang was a hunter in the mountains before joining the army, and now this hunting model is proposed by him.
-- I won't say how many people died, but most of the corpses of the dead soldiers could not be brought back.
At this point, Matsui Ishine was completely clear about the fact that it was impossible for the Black God Army's position to be conquered by infantry.
The Black God Army suppressed the attacking infantry into the trench with a machine gun bunker, and the infantry who entered the trench could not even find the enemy, so how could they kill the enemy? In that kind of terrain, there is only the share of the slaughter of the enemy.
Artillery fire, only artillery fire, is the only way to win.
Matsui sent a telegram to the base camp and asked the Empire to airlift the cannonballs to him with the power of the whole country.
Matsui Ishone's report shocked the entire book.
After 918, it has always been a society with a high fever that does not go away, although it has been poured out of the well by the Black God Army several times in recent years, but as soon as it retreats, it will be followed by a strong rebound.
But this time, Matsui Ishone's report cleared the heat and reduced the fever very well, and it was immediate.
These pillars of the empire may not be very clear about the others, but the simple fact of what their family background is is still clear.
Among the great powers, the overall industrial strength of this is the weakest, and the use of cannonballs is unaffordable in any case.
The base camp quickly reached a consensus.
There are two points of consensus: first, Baoding must be conquered, the north and south must be carried out, and the besieged Fifth Division and the 109th Division must be rescued, so Matsui Shigen's request must be satisfied.
Second, the consumption of the war far exceeded what had been originally envisaged, and local production could not be satisfied in any way on this scale, so it was necessary to speed up the transfer of industry to Manchuria and to make the maximum use of Manchuria's human and material resources.
More than 100 kilometers away from Cangzhou, the Bohai Bay gathered all the aircraft carriers of the empire, but this was only a little more than 400 aircraft, and most of them were fighters and bombers, and there were very few transport planes.
Therefore, transport planes transporting ammunition can only take off from airfields outside the Great Wall, but with so many transport planes transporting artillery shells flying to Baoding, guarding against the air force attack of the Black God Army has become an important task.
The so-called is not afraid of thieves stealing, but afraid of thieves, with the ruthlessness and deceit of the Black God Army, it is not too many planes to escort it.
It is said that it does not produce oil, and every drop of oil is precious and abnormal, but how much precious oil does it cost to do so? Invisibly, the tactics of the Black God Army not only dealt a serious blow to the army, but also dealt a heavy blow to the economy.
After receiving a reply from the base camp, Matsui Ishone's mood was slightly better.
The shelling began again.
It is true that Ben is a nation that is good at summing up lessons and lessons.
The method of shelling has changed, and fine cutting is carried out, and this time, only longitudinal cutting belts are used, not transverse cutting belts, and each longitudinal cutting belt is only about 30 meters wide.
This worked very well, and after the shelling, there was basically no more resistance, and the Black God Army simply abandoned its position.
Although the Black God Army abandoned its position, Matsui Ishone did not dare to be careless at all and ordered all the trenches that had not been bombarded by artillery fire to be bulldozed.
The fine cutting method was successful, but Matsui Shigen did not feel the slightest ease in his heart, let alone joy, he had a hunch that the most difficult bone to gnaw was Baoding City.
At this moment, Matsui Shigen seemed to have sensed the intention of the Black God Army, which not only wanted to destroy their soldiers, but also to attack their economy, and to weaken the empire's war capability in terms of both human and material resources.
Matsui Ishine has a very strategic vision, he can look beyond the purely military level, and he knows how amazing the consumption will be if he continues to fight like this.
It can be said that Matsui Shigen can now conclude that if the living forces of the Shina army cannot be completely destroyed this time, especially the combat power of the Black God Army and [***], then even if they occupy Baoding, Beiping, and Tianjin, it will be difficult for them to continue fighting.
The Black God Army is really powerful, just a motionless and silent Black God Army Air Force has made the empire bleed incessantly every day.
A North China full of the Black God Army and [***] is not only not beneficial to the empire, but a huge burden that may bring down the empire.
At this moment, Matsui Ishine was already thinking about how to end this war.
---Ranzhuang, everyone is beaming.
The devil is here, and he is not worried or afraid that it is fake, but now, after these battles, no one has to worry about it anymore.
Everyone cherishes the good life now, so no matter what they do, everyone works hard with enthusiasm.
"Lihong, this is a message from [***] to you." While Han Lihong was standing in front of the map and thinking, Deng Gong walked in and handed the telegram from the central government to Han Lihong.
Taizu is Taizu!
After taking the telegram and looking at it, Han Lihong sighed in his heart.
Taizu pointed out in the telegram that the battle has been fought so far, and victory is already expected, and we are aware of this, and the enemy may also be aware of it, so it is possible for Ben to give up Shandong.
In this way, the strength of the Yue army in Hebei will be greatly increased, and the final results may change, and in order to achieve the greatest victory, it is necessary to do everything possible to prevent the two armies of the north and south from converging together.
To this end, Taizu consulted Han Lihong's opinion.
After thinking about it, Han Lihong asked, "Director Deng, what is your opinion?" ”
Deng Gongdao: "I think [***]'s opinion is correct, and now the senior management should be able to realize that it is not possible to fight like this." ”
Raising his head, Han Lihong instructed the people on the side, "You all go out." ”
The people in the house all went out, leaving Han Lihong and Deng Gong alone. At this time, Han Lihong said: "Director Deng, I have been thinking about this question for a long time. I have an immature idea and would like to hear your opinion......"
Before Han Lihong could finish speaking, Deng Gong's eyes widened. After Han Lihong finished speaking, Deng Gong was dumbfounded: This is too demonic!
After a long time, Deng Gong said: "I have to report this to the central government." ”
Han Lihong nodded.
