234 siege 3

"Boom...", with a whistling sound like a locomotive passing by, a heavy artillery bombarded the path of the siege team. Heavy artillery is heavy artillery, and with just one shot, all the White Russian soldiers within a diameter of 100 meters around the shell landing point were brought down, and even the White Russian soldiers 150 meters away were bleeding from their ears and noses, which was miserable. The Russian artillery did not only attack those crowded places, but also occasionally hit the barrier of flesh and blood, and the flesh and blood flew sideways, trying to restore the firing range of the machine guns, and did not intend to let any attacking White Russian army escape.

"Report, enemy heavy artillery has appeared! Location, two o'clock direction, ....... distance "In the face of the seemingly endless "ant-attached" siege of the White Russian army, the rain of bullets of the Soviet Russian army began to tighten. The flickering fighter planes in the sky caused the supply of machine gun ammunition at the head of the city to stagnate to a certain extent, so Shaolin had no choice but to order heavy artillery to delay the "ant attached" tactics of the White Russian army.

Of course, tactically speaking, this trick is very effective. With just two shells, the rhythm of the third wave of the offensive was completely disrupted. A full 2,000 White Russian troops had already rushed under the city walls, while the 8,000 White Russian troops behind them were blocked by artillery fire and did not follow in time. As a result, for a time, the situation on the battlefield that was originally outnumbered by the crowd changed, and the White Russian army, which was originally weakly equipped and trained, was "slaughtered" by the condescending and well-equipped Soviet Russian army.

As for the "iron-core wooden shell cannon" equipped in the wooden shield vehicles of the two thousand White Russian troops and the German 1873 8cm light field gun that Zhao Yun bought from the Beiyang Army, it was simply an itch for the Soviet Russian army. As soon as one or two artillery pieces were fired, they became the key targets of the 75th and 76th field artillery of Soviet Russia and were destroyed one by one.

However, it was the efforts of these "cannon fodder" that immediately reported the location of Soviet and Russian heavy artillery and field artillery positions to Rokossovsky.

In fact, the five giant mortars had just been put in place, and because of the huge recoil they generated when fired, a concrete base several meters deep had to be poured, and it took six hours to place the gun emplacements alone. And since the opponent's heavy artillery never appeared, it did not fire. Now there was a target, and under the order of Rokossovsky, suddenly the artillery bunkers of the Soviet Russian army fell into the covered shelling of 420mm shells.

Consider this 7-meter-long, 420-millimeter muzzle-diameter, 120-ton gun with the gun carriage, and the ability to fire nearly 1-ton shells at targets up to 14.5 kilometers away. Each shell used up nearly 200 kilograms of propellant and required more than 200 gunners. It can also fire armor-piercing shells equipped with a delayed fuse, causing the shell to explode after penetrating the target. Under such a bombardment, including Zhao Yun, they didn't think that the Soviet Russian army still had any artillery to rely on.

But to everyone's surprise, the Russian artillery held out for a whole day. Of course, this refers to the survival of the Soviet Russian artillery cannon, as for the Soviet Russian field artillery positions, they have long been dismantled by the giant artillery. And the fortress cannon leaned on the sturdy shell like a turtle shell hidden in many buildings, and the attack of the giant cannon was ineffective.

Moreover, the will to fight of the Soviet Russian army was indeed tenacious, and under the attack of artillery fire, it held out until dark, during which the White Russian army organized a total of thirteen waves of siege, but still did not take the western wall of Krasnoyarsk. Although the last two sieges of the city, the White Russian army had already entered the city, but Shaolin calmly mobilized Soviet and Russian soldiers from other directions to come to the rescue, and simply blocked the White Russian army outside the city.

"How many enemy forces have gathered in the west of the city so far?" Thinking of the previous agreement with Zhao Yun, Rokossovsky gritted his teeth with hatred for not attacking the city before sunset, what a good fighter, but every time it came to the most critical moment, it was blocked back.

"It's already attracted 20,000 people." The attendant officer beside him looked at the observation data brought back by the fighter plane during the air raid, and said solemnly.

"There are only 30,000 in total, and 20,000 have been attracted here, and this "refueling" tactic is really appropriate! Rokossovsky's heart had already been scolded, as long as he was given another day, no, even if it was a night, even if it was a consummation, the Soviet Russian defenders in the city would be consumed on the western wall, and then the western wall of Krasnoyarsk would definitely be taken.

You must know that Rokossovsky's Western Expeditionary Army and the White Russian Army that stayed in Tengda, as the eastern barrier of Ulan-Ude, are relatively effective in the White Russian Army, and they have all had experience in fighting with the regular Soviet Russian army, and even some teams turned out to be the regular army of Soviet Russia. It's not that the soldiers don't want to fight, but it's really the result of the two armies fighting too far apart.

After collecting the cannon fodder, Rokossovsky also integrated them on the way to the march, and gradually integrated the young and strong, the old and weak, and the women and children into their respective 10,000 troops, and Timur's camp soldiers and horses and the "strict discipline" of the 40,000 White Russians also made them more and more disciplined, saying that it was still too early to say that the army was still too early, but it was still barely possible to obey orders.

This, of course, was guaranteed by the brutal military law of the White Russian army. And without the 400,000 camp soldiers in the parchment scroll that Zhao Yun brought with him, those cannon fodder would really launch a suicidal charge to the city without fear of death?

Even so, people who passively avoided the war and smeared oil on the soles of their feet still abounded, and the White Russian cannon fodder who died under the knife of Timur's camp law enforcement team accounted for more than one-third of the soldiers killed in the battle against the Soviet Russian army.

Glancing fiercely at Krasnoyarsk City, Rokossovsky threw off his horsewhip, "Order the artillery not to stop, collect the troops, and prepare to enter the city tomorrow." ”

"Into the city?" The attendant officer asked curiously.

"What nonsense, do it according to the rules!" Rokossovsky, who was in a bad mood, did not have time to explain anything, so he turned around and left, leaving a group of officers who were secretly wondering about it still in place.

Rokossovsky was in a bad mood, and Shaolin in the city was also extremely depressed, his original expression in his chest was gone, and he listened to the report in the combat conference room one afternoon, and then drank coffee with his head bored. Things had completely surprised everyone, and for Rokossovsky's lack of attack on the first day of his arrival outside the city, Saulin was grateful to Rokossovsky for holding his troops still, because it gave him another day to practice the militia in the city and calmly arrange the fire points on the streets. The tactics adopted by Shaolin were very simple, the outside of the city was clear, the city was full of hidden forts, and the complex city defense of Krasnoyarsk was used to hold back the White Russian army. After all, there are only 30,000 people under his command, and 20,000 of them are temporarily conscripted militia, if these 30,000 people are all elite Soviet Russia, then Shaolin still dares to go out of the city to fight, but now with the militia under his command, to fight an offensive war? Shaolin was afraid that he would kill him and not be able to kill him, so he could only choose defensive battles. Of course, good steel is used on the blade,

Shaolin divided the team defending the city into three waves, first divided those militias into two teams, the front and rear, and served as the defense of the first two waves, and the elite of Soviet Russia brought by himself as the reserve and law enforcement team as the third wave. There is a wall blocking, long-range shooting with rifles, artillery, and throwing grenades at close range, in case the White Russian army rushes up the city wall, these militias are in a group, and it is always no problem to fight hand-to-hand! The 10,000-strong Soviet Russian Guards Division was evenly distributed by Shaolin with 1,500 men on the four city walls, and then divided the 3,000 soldiers he carefully selected into three teams, each with 1,000 soldiers, ready to make a counter-charge as soon as there was a crisis in front of him, and support the battlefield at any time.

But no matter how carefully arranged, Saulin did not expect that Rokossovsky did not play his cards according to common sense, and without waiting for the whole army to arrive, he ordered the White Russian army, which was less than 300,000, to attack. And this charge is still wave after wave, continuous.

When repelling the first wave of the attack of the White Russian Army, Shaolin still looked down on the White Russian Army in his heart, what age, and still used ladders and wooden shield vehicles to attack the city, when the artillery in the city was a decoration? But without waiting for the residual temperature on the barrels of the defenders to dissipate, in a very short period of time, the White Russian army launched the next round of attack, and even the wounded soldiers of the White Russian army lying on the way forward did not take care of it, and launched a second wave of charges regardless of it. At that time, Shaolin was still ready to watch a good show, and Shaolin, who had experienced World War I, knew that the German army, which was known as a strictly trained army, could still launch more than three consecutive charges after suffering huge casualties, and that was the trump card army. And the White Russian army in front of him, no matter how you look at it, is not a trump card. Unexpectedly, the White Russian army fought from day to night, and did not stop until the sun set. During this period, thirteen charges were launched, although Shaolin also saw the figures of the supervision team and the law enforcement team behind them, but from the tactics of the opposing commander, Shaolin saw the determination of the other party. There is a saying among Chinese people that one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither. Did you meet a madman similar to the Japanese army Nogi Noshinori?

""Meat bomb" tactics!?" What puzzled Saulin was, when did such an outlaw army come out of the territory of Russia? And it's not the Soviet Russian army, it's the White Russian army that just threw down the hoe as cannon fodder.

But no matter what tactics it was, after the charge of a group of fierce White Russian cannon fodder regardless of casualties, the follow-up White Russian army did not spend much effort, and pushed away the obstacles on the offensive road, filled dozens of trenches, and held the ladder to kill the militia defending the city.

Fortunately, Shaolin arranged tactical reserves before the battle, although he lost a lot of losses in the air raids, but he also stubbornly repelled the attacks of the White Russian army again and again, and waited for the support of three thousand troops.

Although he held it, Shaolin's heart was cold, there were two main points, one was that the psychological pressure was too great, and such an endless "meat bullet" attack made people nervous, if the sun didn't set, it is estimated that the other party would be able to charge again, and now that the sun has set, who knows if the other party will have another night attack at night or something? This contingent can no longer be viewed as the usual White Russian army, and this spirit of seeing death as if it were home is not unique to the Soviet Russian army? Why did the White Russian Army also learn? Second, the supply of ammunition is really unable to keep up, the rain of metal bullets in the sky seems beautiful, but the use of ammunition is really huge, just one day, it is expected to consume no less than 4 million rounds of ammunition. Do you think that it is so easy to talk about "fire cover" and "machine gun suppression" that are often talked about in TV dramas?
