Chapter 163: Oahu Attack and Defense (11)

By noon, the sound of artillery around Ford Bridge had gradually thinned.

After repelling three successive waves of attacks by the American army, the troops defending the bridge were finally able to sit down to catch their breath and drink water.

On the roads, in the sugar fields, and in the orchards, the corpses of American GIs were scattered everywhere. Among them, there are also wounded soldiers who are not dead for the time being, shouting, rolling, and struggling in the grass, and if a brave comrade occasionally rushes up to save them, it may not be a good thing, and the bullets and grenades fired from the bridgehead do not distinguish between the rescuer and the rescued.

Liang Gensheng put down the binoculars, went into the foxhole, lit a Kirin cigarette, and took a deep breath.

So far, the situation was still as he expected, the position was impregnable, the enemy suffered heavy casualties, and his own losses were slight...... All in all went well.

But this is just the beginning, the other side may not have judged the direction of the main attack of our landing force, so it only sent this number of troops to seize the bridge, I believe that it will not be long before the other side can come to a correct judgment, and then will definitely concentrate all its mobile forces to attack it. There was a bridge in the direction of Eva downstream of the river, and the commander of the opposing side, if he had a little bit of a shredded mind, would have thought of using this bridge to detour a force back to the north of the bridge and form an encirclement posture for the troops defending the bridge.

However, it is also a matter of course - aren't the Airborne Forces a class of troops that will definitely be surrounded? In fact, from the moment it landed, Liang Gensheng's troops were already surrounded by hundreds of times the enemy's army.

Did the landing force go ashore without any problems? Where did the assault force go? Liang Gensheng looked at the foxhole where the radio station was located, and the clever communications officer shook his head at him regretfully.

No news? It doesn't matter, before midnight, even if it is all scrapped, the bridge will definitely be saved.

Look, we're definitely the elite troops!

"Sir, a large cloud of dust has suddenly been raised from behind the enemy's position." Wang Yuhan, the leader of Liang Gensheng's most important squadron, poked his head out of the foxhole.

"Reinforcements are coming, shoot a few mortars, it's a greeting - by the way, call those pilots over."

"Yes!"

Liang Gensheng took a puff after taking the last puff, threw the cigarette butt into the bottom of the pit, stepped on it, took out the compressed biscuit and gnawed it.

- came, a little earlier than expected, but it's nothing, a little earlier, a little later, it doesn't matter, in front of the world's number one special operations force, those weak and incompetent National Guards are complete scum.

Three hundred! Our three airborne squadrons, together with Fan Wenrui's guerrillas, totaled only about 300 people.

Each airborne squadron has 80 officers and men, and has two assault squadrons, an eight-man machine-gun detachment (four groups), a six-man grenadier detachment (three groups), a six-man sniper detachment, and a four-man command group. Each assault squad has jurisdiction over three assault detachments, each with nine members, and a total of 28 members. In addition, Liang Gensheng's wing has a total of six people, and two 80-mm mortar teams have a total of eight people, that is, a total of 254 airborne troops.

If Fan Wenrui's intelligence is correct, there should be a total of four regiments of enemies in Qiaonan! Even if the opponent only attacks with the strength of one regiment, it will have a tenfold superiority in strength.

How many field artillery does the opponent have? Fifty doors? Seventy doors? Even if you only take out ten old field guns from twenty years ago, they are still much more powerful than the two poor 80mm mortars in your own hands.

Comparison of forces? Firepower comparison? None of this matters, the essence of the special operations unit lies in the excellent quality of individual soldiers, in the mobile and flexible assault, and this kind of rotten thing of stubbornly defending the battle line and being bombarded has nothing to do with us at all!

Fortunately, the dense sugar cane fields and orchards on both sides of the bridge were suitable for these elite soldiers to give full play to their advantages in individual quality and infantry firepower, while greatly weakening the effectiveness of the opponent's artillery support.

In the past two hours, our soldiers have defeated the superior attacking enemy with fierce and delicate counterattacks instead of simply defending to the death, and have also captured many prisoners, and after interrogating relevant information, they have all been driven to the bank of the river to wait for Liang Gensheng's "treatment."

Forget it, I'm not in the mood to step on ants right now. While the enemy is still moving, quickly adjust the deployment.

"Chief Liang, are you looking for us?"

The woman's voice, the woman's face, and the blood on her face have been wiped clean, but her eyes are still so strange...... Cai Guolan, the name, so familiar, in the 21st century......

"Sir?"

Liang Gensheng blinked, threw a rope with his left hand to drag his thoughts back to reality, and pulled out his majestic mask with his right hand to change it on.

"The enemy's reinforcements should be gathering, and a larger attack may be launched later, I want you to contact the fleet immediately and send planes to support."

"Understood!"

Didn't drag the mud and water, didn't take a second look, it's good, that's right, don't be influenced by others, do what you have to do -

Slightly unscrewed up, watching Cai Guolan jump into the foxhole where the radio station was located, Liang Gensheng unscrewed the kettle, swallowed half a pot of water in one go, and beckoned to the adjutant on the other side of the radio: "Adjutant Wu, send someone to call the squadron leaders over." ”

A few minutes later, the three squadron leaders of the 1st, 2nd, and 4th squadrons jumped into Liang Gensheng's foxhole one after another.

"Next, I'm afraid the other party is going to come to the real thing." Liang Gensheng handed out a cigarette to each squadron leader and lit it for them personally, which was his style.

"How are the brethren feeling?"

"What else, we are the best elite troops in the world." Wang Yuhan said with a cigarette in his mouth.

Liang Gensheng put away the fireer and nodded: "Sooner or later, the enemy will think of adopting a roundabout tactic, going around behind us, and surrounding us to fight." ”

"It's okay, we're meant to be surrounded by nature." Xiao Ning, the leader of the second squadron, responded.

"That's right, so we're going to be ready to be besieged, and I'm going to adjust the deployment. At present, there is only one detachment of the 4th Squadron and a dozen guerrillas in Qiaobei, which is too weak, and I plan to withdraw the 4th Squadron in its entirety and organize a new defense line in Qiaobei. It turned out that the defense line of the fourth squadron was filled in by the first and second squadrons, is there a problem? ”

"We're on it." Wang Yuhan and Xiao Ning pounded their chests and confidently agreed.

"If our squadron is all withdrawn, won't there be a problem on the front?" Lu Bing, the leader of the fourth squadron, was a little uneasy.

Liang Gensheng patted him on the shoulder: "One of your squadrons is responsible for the defense of the entire north side of the bridge, but I'm worried about whether you can hold it." ”

Lu Bing took a deep breath of cigarette, gritted his teeth and said, "With one soldier in the fourth squadron, we will never let an enemy drill through the defense line." ”

"I've already called someone to contact the fleet, and with the help of planes, the enemy's artillery will have to be reined in, but even if there are no planes coming, we can hold this bridge, right?"

"Needless to say." The squadron leaders are all gearing up and eager to try.

"Let's do it!"
