Chapter 317: Artillery Attack
"Oh! By the way, what about the casualties of the troops? Ren Chao smiled and nodded, and suddenly asked with a stern face.
"One person from the Dragon's Tooth Special Combat Team was killed and five were slightly injured, four from the Wolf Tooth Special Combat Team were slightly injured, one person from the Black Hawk Special Combat Team was seriously injured and three were slightly injured, and one person from the Snow Leopard Special Combat Team was killed, one was seriously injured, and three were slightly injured. In total, two people were killed, two were seriously wounded, and 15 were slightly wounded. Fan Chenglong replied loudly.
"Hmm!" Ren Chao nodded slightly, Ren Chao was still very satisfied with such casualties. As early as when he was in North Korea, Ren Chao already had the idea of forming a special forces, but it was not so easy to establish a special operations force. After more than a year of rigorous training, more than half of the more than 1,000 people have now been eliminated, leaving only 280 people, and every 70 people are divided into a squadron, and a total of four special operations squadrons have been reorganized.
"It's hard for you this time, after this battle, you can be regarded as officially graduated, and from today onwards, our Tiger Army finally has its first special operations unit." Ren Chao said to Fan Chenglong with a smile. Last night's action was actually only Ren Chao's final assessment of the special operations brigade, and the special operations brigade successfully handed over a satisfactory answer sheet, and the special operations brigade that passed the assessment could be regarded as officially becoming an army.
"Take a good rest, then we won't have any other tasks for the next two days?" Fan Chenglong couldn't help but have a look of disappointment on his face.
Ren Chao smiled slightly, stepped forward and patted Fan Chenglong's shoulder and said. "Although you have no mission in the past two days, I have a very important task to hand over to you in two days."
"A very important task?" Fan Chenglong's brows furrowed slightly. Maybe they were thinking about what important task Ren Chao was going to give them!
Ren Chao looked at Fan Chenglong, who was full of expectations and a little worried, and said with a smile. "Alright, don't think about that now, take your team back to rest! When the time comes, I will naturally inform you what the task is, but this task is quite difficult, but I don't know if you can complete it. ”
"Report to the commander, our special operations brigade is not afraid of any difficulties and challenges, and the meaning of our existence is to complete those tasks that ordinary people can't accomplish!" Fan Chenglong said loudly with a stern face.
Ren Chao looked at Fan Chenglong, who was full of confidence, and couldn't help but nod slightly and said, "Okay!" I am confident that you will be able to accomplish this task. Come to the headquarters the morning after tomorrow and come to me, and I will personally assign tasks for you. ”
"Yes!" Fan Chenglong responded respectfully. Immediately, he straightened his feet and stood in front of Ren Chao and gave a standard military salute, then turned around and strode away.
"Let's go! Go to the headquarters! Ren Chao casually commanded, and walked in the direction of the headquarters with a few personal guards.
In the next two days, the various units of the Tiger Ben Army took turns to launch round after round of fierce attacks on the Russian positions. In the face of the ferocious attack and powerful firepower of the Tiger Army, the Russian army has been beaten and has no power to fight back, and the positions have been broken by the Tiger Army one after another. The heroic soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army, stepping on the corpses of the Russian army, advanced step by step. is constantly compressing the living space of the Russian army.
Although the Russian army also launched several counterattacks, hoping to regain the lost positions from the Tiger Ben army, this qiē effort soon proved to be futile, in addition to heavier losses. The Russian army has nothing to gain. The Tiger Army is still on the offensive, while the Russian army is still constantly retreating.
By the morning of the third day, the sun had just jumped over the horizon. The artillery positions of the Tiger Ben Army resounded with the rumbling sound of artillery. This time the shelling was more intense than ever, and hundreds of guns of various types concentrated their fire. Bombarded the positions of the Russian army. The sound of explosions made the earth tremble. The Russian soldiers could only honestly huddle in the fortifications. Trembling, he prayed to God that the shells would not fall on his head, and that these hateful tigers would stop the shelling as soon as possible!
But apparently God did not take care of the affairs of these old men, and their prayers did not have any effect. The deafening explosion still kept ringing in my ears, the earth was still shaking like a convulsion, and the shells of the Tiger Army were still falling on the positions of the Russian army.
However, the only difference is that after bombarding the forward positions of the Russian army into a sea of fire, the artillery of the Tiger Ben Army slowly began to extend the artillery bombardment, gradually bombarding the deep targets of the Russian army, and the Russian artillery also thought about suppressing the artillery fire, but the Russian artillery, which was obviously at a disadvantage, not only could not suppress the artillery of the Tiger Army, but was suppressed by the artillery of the Tiger Ben Army, and could not provide any effective support to the front-line infantry at all.
"Tick tock!" The loud charge finally remembered, followed by the earth-shattering shouts of killing, and tens of thousands of tiger soldiers rushed out of their positions first, rushing towards the positions of the Russian army like tigers heading down the mountain.
"What was the sound just now, it couldn't be those damn tiger army attacking, right?"
"You're deaf! Didn't you hear their artillery and it didn't stop? ”
"It seems that the Tiger Army has really attacked!"
"But why didn't they stop shelling!"
"Oh God! These damn Qing people, they are all a bunch of complete madmen, aren't they afraid of blowing up their own people? ”
The attack of the Tiger Ben Army came too suddenly, most of the old Maozi have not yet reacted, the Tiger Ben Army has successfully rushed to the position of the Russian army, many old Maozi who hid in the artillery hole, did not even come and ran out, and the Tiger Ben Army soldiers who rushed over directly threw a few grenades, some were lucky to be killed directly, and many people were even suffocated to death because of the collapse of the anti-artillery hole.
"Don't stop the artillery! Keep stretching the shot! The infantry continue to attack, and this time we will crush these old hairy men in one fell swoop! In a forward observation post, Ren Chao shouted loudly with excitement on his face.
The "artillery offensive" tactic, which did not appear until the Soviet-German war in history, was put on the battlefield nearly half a century ahead of schedule. Ren Chao's purpose is very simple, to rely on powerful artillery as a backing, and completely defeat the Russian army in one fell swoop.
"Kill!" In the earth-shattering shouts of killing, more and more Tiger Ben soldiers threw themselves into the battle, and tens of thousands of Tiger Ben soldiers on the front line launched a comprehensive counteroffensive against their own artillery fire. (To be continued......)
