Chapter 286: Exposed Soviet Artillery

The Soviet instructors, who were lying in the trenches dodging the dense bullets, watched the Soviet soldiers being killed one by one, and felt a palpitation. At this time, the military hat on his head didn't know where it flew, and he didn't care about it. He had just crossed the Grim Reaper's shoulder, and the entire position was littered with bullets flying everywhere.

Originally, when the Soviet soldiers who saw the appearance of the enemy were about to teach the other party a lesson, they found that things were completely different from what they expected. The opponent's marksmanship is so accurate that it is difficult to shoot with his head out. Because as long as the head is exposed, it is difficult for the person to stick the head back into the trench alive, and few people can hide from it.

Only then did they understand why the Chinese army was able to defeat Britain, France and Japan ten years ago. It was by no means as rumored by the army, it was because of luck or the carelessness of Britain, France and Japan. A soldier with such marksmanship is absolutely comparable to that of ordinary national soldiers.

Even they in the Soviet army, not many people dared to say that at a distance of two or three hundred meters, they hit the target's head. In the USSR, a person with such marksmanship was already a qualified sniper.

The instructor quickly touched the command room, his entire waist was almost bent at 90 degrees, and he didn't want to use his head to test whether the Chinese bullet was hard or not. The place where he stayed before was not far from the headquarters, and when he came to the headquarters, he immediately picked up the phone and said hurriedly:

"Hey, this is the front line, the Chinese army has begun to attack in a big way, our army has suffered heavy casualties for a while, and needs artillery support, and the forward positions need artillery support."

"Hold on, there will be artillery fire to support you soon, but you must hold the position, even if you have the last soldier left, you must also nail me to the position." The answer of the political commissar of the rear regiment came from the phone.

"As long as there is artillery support, we have the confidence to hold it."

The instructor who covered the phone let go of his worries a little. Then he took out his weapon and ran out of the improvised headquarters, lying on the trench outside, and through a small gap, he carefully looked at the flying fire snake in front of him.

At this time, in front of the entire Soviet position, the flares had been extinguished again, and in the eyes of the Soviet soldiers, there were only flying fiery snakes, harvesting their lives.

The Soviet soldiers who had been ordered to extinguish the flames finally completed their mission, but they also paid with many lives. Although it was almost six o'clock at this moment, the sky and the earth were still shrouded in endless darkness.

At this time, the Soviet soldiers could finally take advantage of the night to start a counterattack, but it also took guts to shoot, and if they didn't dodge in time, they were likely to be hit by the bullets that followed the fire.

The flares were once again lifted into the air, but this time by the Chinese army, and the armored infantry fighting vehicles in front fired a series of flares that slowly fell over the Soviet positions. The Soviet soldiers, who could have fought back by the darkness of the night, were once again exposed to the guns of the Chinese soldiers.

At the same time, the machine guns on the armored vehicles began to be replaced with tracer bullets to guide the direction of fire for the infantry behind, because the armored vehicles had night vision devices on them, and the night had no effect on them at all.

The battlefield was fierce for a while, bullets flew everywhere, and there were flying fires everywhere, gorgeous and full of murderous power. On one side are intermittent points of light, and on the other side are continuous points of light. The gap in equipment is quite noticeable at this moment.

And at this moment, the commander of the 2nd Regiment of the 631st Division, who had been staying in the rear, received an urgent notice. When he learned the content of the news, his face suddenly became happy, and he immediately spoke: "Order the troops to implement the third set of plans." ”

This order was quickly passed on to the forward units of the attack, and the pace of the offensive slowed down as the vanguard connected to the order to carry out the third set of plans. At that time, the whole army began to slowly retreat, and all the armored infantry fighting vehicles were replaced with backward gears, and the infantry also changed from advancing to retreating. However, even in the retreat, the troops did not stop attacking, and the weapons in their hands continued to shoot.

At this time, Li Ze and the others also began to retreat, and in the previous battle, they had already gathered the firepower of the attacking troops behind. When they noticed that the troops in the rear were retreating, they followed the slow retreat.

The third set of schemes, the term is not new to these soldiers. This is a common signal, and a plan for the Soviet forces. The Soviet Union had a large number of artillery pieces, and a set of plans was developed in order to prevent troops from attacking because of the heavy artillery attacks of the Soviet Union.

And this plan is based on many premises, the most important of which is to judge or detect when the Soviet artillery will attack. This required scouts or special forces to lurk in the rear, find Soviet artillery positions, and observe the movements of Soviet artillery.

There is another aspect, which is to rely on the most advanced electronic warfare units, by intercepting Soviet radio communications, to crack and know what the Soviet Union is going to start shelling. However, this time, it was the special forces who relied on rear reconnaissance to be the first to discover the Soviet artillery units.

If you have air supremacy and your own aircraft can support you at any time, you don't need to formulate this plan, because at that time, as soon as the opponent's artillery shows up, it will be detected and destroyed.

Scouts or special forces who infiltrated the Soviet rear would send this message to the attacking troops as soon as they learned that the Soviet artillery was about to attack. Inform them to take precautions to avoid shelling.

The Mongolian Military District has practiced this plan many times, because here, in winter, planes often fail to take off due to the weather. So they needed a plan to avoid heavy casualties to avoid Soviet heavy artillery.

Previously, because they had been worried about the Soviet heavy artillery, the three regiments did not invest too many troops, and did not take advantage of the shelling to launch a large-scale rapid charge with all armored vehicles and tanks as the lead. If they did so, they might soon be able to occupy the Soviet forward positions, but they would also expose large parts of the army to Soviet artillery fire. It is completely impossible to rely on the current fortifications of the Soviet Union to resist the Soviet heavy artillery.

The attack of a company, and the speed of the attack was not very fast, the main purpose was to attract Soviet artillery to start attacking the Chinese offensive forces. Thus to lead the artillery clusters in the rear to destroy the Soviet heavy artillery units.

Previously, because the Soviet artillery was well hidden, the reconnaissance units and special forces that infiltrated the rear did not find the Soviet large-scale artillery. This requires luring the snake out of the hole, as long as the opponent's artillery moves, it will be known by the hidden scouts or special forces. Otherwise, if the location of the opponent's artillery positions had been known, where would there be such trouble. Just end up the artillery position.

Therefore, after seeing this news, the second head of the regiment will show a joyful appeal. Soviet artillery has always been a sharp sword hanging over their heads, and he needs to be vigilant at all times. And this sword is still hidden in the shadows, and now that this sword has been found, it is much easier to pull it out, and there is no need to worry about it anymore.

Also receiving this message was the rear artillery cluster, which had been spotted by reconnaissance special forces hiding in the distance while the 13th Artillery Division of the Soviet Union was preparing for an artillery bombardment. The previously hidden artillery, when it was about to be shelled, showed its hideous figure, which could not be hidden. Because they have not yet had time to build permanent artillery camouflage bunkers, which can be shelled directly inside the bunkers.

In the message sent to the artillery cluster, there was also about the coordinates of the Soviet artillery, as well as the approximate number. At the beginning of the battle, the entire Kyakhta was cut into dozens of small pieces on the map, each of which was a coordinate, each representing a realistic area of land within a kilometer.

Su Yusheng had already woken up during the shelling, and he believed that Zhukov had also woken up, because in the face of the sudden shelling, he did not believe that there was a military commander who could sleep, especially the kind of military commander of hundreds of thousands of troops.

The details of the attack of the forward troops were simulated on the map of the headquarters, and the deployment and movement of Soviet troops were also updated in real time on the map. After learning that a corner of Soviet artillery had appeared, the location of Soviet artillery had been marked on the map where it was found, as well as the approximate number.

Su Yusheng looked at the map, and the signs on the map that were still attacking the three pioneer companies were slowly moving back in a triangular formation, and they were about to converge with the signs of the troops behind.

"How is the artillery cluster prepared?" Seeing this, Su Yusheng frowned and said.

The forward troops were less than six kilometers from the Soviet artillery positions and were completely under the cover of the opposing artillery. This is a very dangerous signal, and if the other side knows that this is a gathering point for attacking forces, then these troops are dangerous. It is necessary to destroy the opponent's artillery before they can find their troops.

"The artillery cluster has begun to prepare, and the shooting elements are being adjusted."

"Order the artillery clusters, go faster, and start shelling as much as possible before the other side opens fire." Su Yusheng frowned and said.

As soon as Su Yusheng's words fell, a staff officer in the command headquarters got up and walked up to Su Yusheng and said: "Commander, according to the electronic troops' monitoring, Zhukov ordered half an hour ago to send elite troops to form a small detachment to our side to reconnoiter the deployment of our army. ”

Hearing this news, Su Yusheng's heart moved. It seems that Zhukov still can't help it, so it's okay, lest he always be timid. But this matter will not make him happy, I want to see how many of the people you sent can go back. I've got a big gift ready.

Su Yusheng actually wanted the Soviet Union to move, although now the Chinese army took the initiative, but the Soviet Union hundreds of thousands of people tightly surrounded each other, making the appearance of being defended. Su Yusheng didn't want to waste too much energy to knock on this defensive circle. And as long as the other party moves, then things are much easier.
