Chapter 1106 - Eat Ten Soviet Heavy Artillery Brigades

The rumbling of artillery continued, and the number of artillery pieces that continued to join this artillery battle was also rapidly increasing.

The artillery command of the Soviet Far Eastern Army, looking at the losses constantly reported by the combat staff officers. Lieutenant General Vajim, the commander of the artillery, dozens of minutes ago, still had a confident facial expression, and directly turned pale from fear. On the bare forehead, on this cold and biting grassland, I couldn't help but burst out beads of sweat the size of beans......

In less than an hour of fighting, the direct loss of more than 500 large-caliber guns was undoubtedly a huge price for the expeditionary force, which had only more than 3,000 guns. More importantly, this loss continues to increase.

After an hour-long battle, Lieutenant General Wajim, as the commander of the artillery of the Far Eastern Army, had already deeply felt the cunning of his opponent Chen Guangrong. An artillery battalion against an artillery regiment of its own, which was simply unthinkable before. However, his opponent Chen Guangrong did it.......

While feeling the cunning of his opponent, another worry quickly appeared on Lieutenant General Vajim's face.

In an hour-long artillery battle, more than 1,500 artillery pieces that he had prepared for this attack had already joined the battle, and a full third of his artillery was lost.

And their own opponents, according to the estimates of Lieutenant General Vajim. With Chen Guangrong's preemptive strike again and again. In addition, the artillery positions of the opposing are all battalions, and they are scattered and scattered. If you hit the shell yourself, it will be difficult to achieve results as long as it does not hit the target directly.

And their own artillery positions, as long as the shells of the Chinese artillery fall into the positions. Needless to say, in such a dense artillery position, even if a blind cat meets a dead mouse, he can achieve more or less results.

One thing that Lieutenant General Vajim didn't expect even more was that. Shells needed by their own artillery units. At the beginning, for the sake of convenience, coupled with the confidence of their own troops, they were all stacked next to each gun emplacement. And now. These shells, instead of being convenient for their own artillery, became a source of explosion that could destroy the entire gun position at any time.

And so. The artillery position of the University of Nuoda not only had to guard against the damage of shells fired by the Chinese artillery. It is even more necessary to guard against the possible death of shells on their own artillery positions.

Eliminate the advantages of the other, calculate it like this: in the eyes of Lieutenant General Vajim, an hour-long artillery battle, Chinese artillery units. At most, the loss of more than 200 artillery pieces was directly exchanged for the huge result of the annihilation of his five heavy artillery brigades. As for the remaining 500 or so artillery pieces used by the Chinese artillery, they were also on a par under the fierce counterattack of their own thousands of artillery pieces.

Of course. And that's not the most important thing.

The fifteen heavy artillery brigades that they had prepared for this artillery battle had all taken part in the battle. And his opponent Chen Guangrong, the weak-hearted Lieutenant General Wajim, did not know how many battalion-level artillery positions there were that had not been exposed. If in the course of the next infantry offensive. These Chinese artillerymen, who were still in concealment, suddenly opened fire. The infantry of the Far Eastern Army, which was completely in a state of field warfare, would undoubtedly suffer a very heavy blow.

Come to think of it. For their own position, and for the hundreds of thousands of officers and soldiers of the entire Soviet Far Eastern Army. After a short period of shock, Lieutenant General Vajim directly showed a determined look on his face, and resolutely ordered his subordinates waiting for orders in front of him: "For the sake of the great Soviet Union and for the sake of hundreds of thousands of Red Army warriors, our artillery units must not be beaten so passively. ”

"Order, the sixteenth to twenty-fifth brigades of the Far Eastern Army's heavy artillery immediately build artillery positions. Tell the commanders at all levels that I will only give them half an hour, and within half an hour, they must be ready to counterattack, otherwise, military law will engage in ..."

When the murderous order was issued, the operational staff officer did not dare to slack off and hurriedly rushed out of the command headquarters.

And at this very moment, the artillery commander of the Chinese army, Chen Guangrong, is also in his own command, calculating his own losses and the artillery units that are still in his hands ...

"More than two hundred artillery pieces, that is, the equipment of two entire heavy artillery brigades. It sounds like a lot, but compared to the scale of the entire artillery battle, it is already a small amount ... Chief of Staff, with so many artillery losses, what about our artillery, are the losses great? Looking at the latest data in his hand, Chen Guangrong asked with a solemn face.

"Because of the fact that an anti-artillery hole was dug next to each gun emplacement, coupled with the strict orders of the command, the losses of the artillery were not serious...," replied the chief of staff.

"As long as the artillery is still alive, the losses of these two heavy artillery brigades can be replenished immediately..."Artillery Commander Chen Guangrong's face directly showed a relaxed expression and spoke.

"Just now the Commander-in-Chief sent me a telegram. Before the start of the battle, the heavy artillery that the Central Military Commission had hoarded in the major warehouses of the Northwest Military Region had already begun to be transported to the front line. So far, more than one and a half hundred artillery pieces have arrived in the rear, waiting for the troops to receive. So, immediately order these artillerymen, who have lost their artillery, to the rear to receive artillery ...

"After the reception is completed, according to the plan formulated in advance by the command. Take these new equipment with you and rush to the scheduled artillery positions for deployment ...

"Commander, I'll do it right away..."

Looking at the fast-leaving chief of staff, artillery commander Chen Guangrong, he immediately set his eyes on the operational map in front of him that marked all his artillery positions...

After an hour-long artillery battle, Chen Guangrong had already mobilized seven of the ten heavy artillery brigades that had all been in place. In addition to the losses in the course of the battle, plus the five heavy artillery brigades that were still roaring on the battlefield. In the hands of Commander Chen Guangrong, there are only three left....

According to the markings on the map, three heavy artillery brigades, that is, 27 artillery positions. Coupled with the more than a dozen artillery positions that could be rapidly deployed a few hours later, Commander Chen Guangrong's face directly showed a look of expectation, wanting to use the remaining forty artillery positions in his hand to inflict a heavy blow on the Far Eastern Army on the opposite side.

Thinking of this, Chen Guangrong immediately walked to the phone and dialed the phone number to Liu Hua, the former enemy's general headquarters.

"Commander-in-chief, I have an idea I want to inform you about......" Liu Hua on the other end of the phone, as an old subordinate Chen Guangrong, was not polite, and said directly.

"Lao Chen, what do you think...... Chen Guangrong is refreshing, and Liu Hua is also refreshing. As soon as Commander Chen Guangrong's words fell, Liu Hua's hearty voice came from the microphone...

"Commander-in-chief, the entire artillery battle has entered a stalemate stage. If you want to change the tide of the battle, Lao Maozi on the opposite side has only one way to increase the number of artillery. However, even with an increase in the number of artillery, in a short time, it will not be possible. So, I want to use the remaining heavy artillery in my hand to prepare a big gift for Lao Maozi on the other side......" Chen Guangrong replied.

"Prepare a big gift for Lao Maozi...... Lao Chen, what do you mean? Liu Hua seemed to be interested, and hurriedly asked.

"Taking advantage of the favorable opportunity when Lao Maozi's follow-up artillery units are not ready, concentrate all the artillery fire and kill all the heavy artillery that Lao Maozi has exposed. Then, quickly shift positions and continue to lurk and stand by..."Chen Guangrong said confidently.

"Are you sure?" Out of trust in Chen Guangrong, Liu Hua did not ask about the specific process, and directly asked rhetorically.

"Eighty percent sure... In 20 minutes, that is, within 20 minutes, the artillery fire was used to gradually assemble the heavy artillery positions of the entire ten brigades, and all of them were plowed. After the end of the shelling, no matter what the result is, all the artillery positions participating in the battle will be quickly transferred within 10 minutes..."Chen Guangrong replied confidently.

"Eighty percent sure, kill Lao Maozi's ten heavy artillery brigades, this deal is definitely a sure profit....Lao Chen, I believe you, you can do it yourself?" Liu Hua directly gave a positive answer.

"Thank you for the support of the commander-in-chief, I, Chen Guangrong, promise to complete the task. Otherwise, come to ......"

To shell and destroy the enemy's artillery positions, high-explosive shells are undoubtedly the best option...

With the support of the commander-in-chief Liu Hua, Chen Guangrong directly mobilized all the staff officers he could mobilize, and calculated the specific location of Lao Maozi's heavy artillery cluster, including the specific shelling area and shelling coordinates of each artillery battalion.

Soon, one by one, the data was transmitted by telephone to the remaining twenty-seven artillery positions.

Under Chen Guangrong's strict orders, 27 artillery positions and more than 300 large-caliber artillery pieces. Almost at the same time, according to the latest shooting coordinates provided by Chen Guangrong, he raised the muzzle of his own black hole......

"Report to the commander, all artillery positions are ready......" Under Chen Guangrong's anxious waiting, the chief of staff's affirmative answer sounded directly in the command headquarters.

After a quick glance at the more than 20 combat staff officers who were holding the telephone microphone in front of him. Chen Guangrong's face also showed a smile of expectation. Because this is also the largest artillery battle he commanded in his life, with the largest number of artillery.

"Now I order, all artillery clusters, to start a counterattack, open artillery ......"

As soon as Chen Guangrong's words fell, dozens of consecutive 'open artillery' orders followed, and directly spit out from the mouths of the combat staff officers in front of him.

In an instant, the battlefield, where the cannon was already rumbling, directly sounded an even more piercing whistling sound of breaking through the air.

More than 300 large-caliber shells flew into the sky at once.......

After drawing a huge arc over the battlefield where the enemy and our armies are engaged, Luo is very accurate on the side of your old Maozi artillery cluster.

......The explosion of huge shells sounded on the Lao Maozi artillery position, and more than 300 orange fireballs, like a queue, rose into the air along two straight lines, one next to the other......

The last shell had just exploded, and the second round of more than 300 shells, followed by it, flew over the Lao Maozi artillery cluster again ...

Less than twenty meters from the area of the first round of shelling, two more fireballs in a straight line rose from the ground and appeared in the position where the Lao Maozi artillery cluster was located ....

Round after round, bands of fire composed of artillery fire, in the thick sound of shell explosions. Directly like an unstoppable plough rake, the artillery position of thousands of guns was assembled towards Lao Maozi, and quickly swept over.
