"Kill!" With a roar, the ranks of the Red Army poured like a tidal wave towards the 323 position.

However, as the so-called "one drum, and then exhaust three and decline", they had shouted a few times before, but I paused a few times in a row as if I was a monkey and ran back and forth, at this time the shouting and killing was already empty and had no momentum.

I originally wanted to go to the front line to see the situation, after all, if I didn't see the battlefield situation with my own eyes, I would not be able to grasp some details, and besides, I, the battalion commander, also belonged to the edge of being on the front line but not on the front line...... Although the battalion commander does not require the battalion commander to take the lead in the charge, it is still normal for the front-line command or the front-line to check the enemy's situation or something, and if the cadres at the regiment commander level go to the front line, they will be criticized.

But...... Considering that I am the supreme commander of this unit, and this is still an exercise, an exercise that is obviously unfavorable to our five battalions, if I am so on the front line, the director team will judge the sacrifice of the commander...... Then I'm going to be angry.

After much consideration, I decided to stay in the rear in the anti-artillery holes improvised by the engineer company and sit in command.

"The Red Army infantry was found on the left flank, two platoons were formed, and the number is unknown!"

"The Red Army infantry was found in the front, organized into a company, with an unknown number!"

……

Every time a new piece of information appeared, Zhao Jingping pushed the red arrow forward a little bit on the map in front of me according to the corresponding position, so that I could see the Red Army's charge very vividly.

Just like I thought...... Yang Jiahao really used the old tactic of "breaking through the two flanks head-on", but their armored troops never appeared on the right flank. Instead, two platoons of infantry were used......

I was a little puzzled by this. But after thinking about it, it quickly became clear...... Chan Ka-ho is not stupid. He knew that tanks would not work without infantry cooperation, and at the same time, he also knew that armored transporters might not be useful in this open field full of craters, so he wanted the tank to have infantry cooperation and would keep up with the tanks...... Let the infantry go ahead first, so that the tanks will appear and rush to the flanks of our positions at the same time as the infantry!

This is wishful thinking...... I immediately pointed to the infantry on the open ground and said to King Chuang, "Do you have a way to use a mortar company to attack some infantry?" ”

After thinking about it, King Chuang nodded and said, "There is no problem, it's just ...... I don't know if the director team will ......"

"You just do your thing!" I said, "As for how the director team decides, that's their problem!" ”

"Yes!" King Chuang answered, immediately grabbed the walkie-talkie and began to call the mortar company.

"Shoot all!" King Chuang shouted at the walkie-talkie: "The target is the 'enemy' infantry." Grenade instantaneous fuse, charge No. 4, ruler ×××, 7 seconds apart; No. 3 charge, ××× ruler at 6 sec intervals; No. 2 charge, ××× ruler, 3 rounds landed at the same time......"

When King Chuang said "3 shots hit the ground at the same time", he deliberately accentuated his tone and yelled at the observers around him, as if he was afraid that he would not understand...... But it seems to work. When the observers heard this, they realized what King Chuang was going to do, and they couldn't help but open their mouths and couldn't close them for a long time!

At this time, King Chuang looked at the stopwatch in his hand. He shouted into the microphone, "Ready...... Put! ”

After a few seconds, he shouted again, "Release!" ”

……

I pretended to be relaxed and handed a cigarette to the observer and said, "Comrade...... You may not believe that this mortar can be fired at 3 different times, but it can land at the same time...... This is Staff Officer Li's specialty, this No. 4 charge is filled with four additional medicine packs, which can hit the shell higher and lower, and the No. 3 charge is lower...... As long as you pinch this time interval, all three shells will hit the ground at the same time! ”

I knew this principle from King Chuang before, which means that not only rifled guns can be fired like this, but mortars can also be fought like this, but there will be some differences in data...... For example, the preparation time for rifled guns is ten seconds, while the preparation time for mortars is only five seconds.

"Oh!" The observer nodded awkwardly, trying to write something down in his notebook but not knowing how.

"You might need this!" King Chuang handed the observer a piece of paper with the charge numbers, ruler data and interval time of the three batches of shells: "Report these to the director team, and let them calculate whether the three shells landed at the same time, and whether the impact point was the location of the Red Army infantry just now!" ”

"Hmm!" The observer took the data with a red face and immediately hid to the side to report to the director's team.

So the results soon came out, and the Red Army was reduced by two-thirds of the two platoons...... Immediately there was a cheer from the headquarters.

"Battalion commander!" At this time, Ding Chengdong reported to me from a few meters away: "The armored forces of the Red Army have attacked, 20 tanks and 11 armored transporters...... Tanks in front of the transporter in the back, along the open ground towards the right flank of our army! ”

"The infantry of the Red Army on the left flank and on the front also accelerated at the same time!" Zhao Jingping pointed to a few red arrows on the map and said: "It seems that the Sixth Battalion wants to put pressure on us on several sides at the same time, and how can it defeat us in one fell swoop!" ”

I immediately ordered: "The second platoon is responsible for the left flank, and the third and fourth platoons are responsible for the 323 heights!" Each platoon commanded an artillery company and blocked the Red Army's attack with artillery fire! ”

"Yes!" The order was quickly conveyed by the staff officers.

That's the benefit of our training during this time...... Each unit will undoubtedly indicate the coordinates for the artillery units, so I don't have to worry about whether the platoons have artillery observers or whether they can get in touch with long-range artillery fire...... These things have been trained countless times before, and it is undoubtedly as easy for them as pinching a snail with three fingers.

So at this time, our infantry was actually too much, and we didn't need three platoons at all...... All they had to do was use binoculars to see where the enemy was concentrated, and then direct the shells to hit that place.

That's what I said before...... The first function of the infantry should be scouts, if only some lucky "enemy" could break through the barrage...... Then they were infantry.

Of course, this is an exercise...... Therefore, we can't shoot real shells, but just give instructions to the long-range artillery units in the rear, and the observers report these data one by one. As for the quality of the artillerymen to carry out the orders given to us...... Naturally, there are also observers who report to the director's team.

It is obvious that the people of the director team only need to pair these coordinates with the coordinates of the Red Army units...... It will be surprising to find that if the Red Army infantry hides in the anticline and does not charge, it will inevitably be accurately bombarded by the long-range artillery fire of the Blue Army as soon as they rush up...... Although the speed at which our infantry observes the coordinates is not fast, these things can be prepared in advance.

And the director team should still clearly remember that not long ago, when the Red Army bombarded the Blue Army, the Red Army's long-range artillery had the means to kill more than half of the platoon of the Blue Army scattered on the 323 anticline position, so now ...... Our long-range artillery fire is hitting the Red Army fiercely, and if there are any casualties at this time...... That's undoubtedly a self-slap in the mouth, and it's too obvious.

So one result after another, the casualties of the Red Army increased with their charge...... This directly led to the fact that the Red Army was pressed on the other side and did not dare to take the lead.

"Battalion commander!" At this time, Ding Chengdong asked: "Is it time for our tank troops to do it......

Instead of answering, I asked rhetorically: "What is the condition of the armored transports of the Red Army?" ”

"Only one has a problem!" Zhao Jingping replied: "But they also seem to know the flaws of the armored transporter, so the speed of advancement is not fast!" ”

"Hmm!" I nodded and said, "Push with mortars again...... Let them drive faster! ”

"Yes!" King Chuang answered, and immediately walked to the walkie-talkie and began to command.

Now all the emphasis is on this armored unit of the Red Army...... If they can successfully eat our tank units and penetrate the flank of 323, then the Red Army still has a chance to turn around. On the other hand, if this armored force of the Red Army loses or wins miserably, then the Red Army can be regarded as losing.

But considering that there was still a close connection between the tanks of the Red Army and armored vehicles, and the number of tanks of the Red Army was still more than ours...... So this is not a good time for our tanks to strike.

Soon another mortar was reported through the observer...... In this round of shelling, the Red Army was judged to have lost two armored vehicles...... Although mortars cannot blow up tanks, they are more than enough to deal with armored vehicles, especially the armor is still notoriously thin-skinned...... The armor is thin, but there are many people in it, and an armored car can hold thirteen people. So this hit one and went to a squad of infantrymen.

So the armored forces of the Red Army were quickly in a hurry...... This is not in a hurry, and if you move forward so slowly, although the armored transporter will not have problems, I am afraid that when it arrives, it will be bombed by mortars.

This is also the weakness of the Type 63 armored transporter, the strength of this thing is mobility, it is difficult for the enemy to hit the target if it is fast, but if the armor is thin and slow...... That's actually an iron coffin.

So the armored forces of the Red Army immediately picked up...... However, problems arose soon this time, and with the report of the correspondent, the number of armored vehicles withdrawing from the exercise due to malfunction was also increasing, and the mortar company chased those armored vehicles all the way under the command of King Chuang to blow them up, only to beat those armored vehicles as if they were stuck in a quagmire in the open field full of craters.

At this time, I nodded and said to Ding Chengdong: "Do it!" (To be continued......)
