Chapter 692: Behind Enemy Lines?

"If your concentrated firepower can ensure that it will not be destroyed by the opponent, or can be outside of the opponent's firepower, then it is indeed more effective to concentrate firepower, but if you are within the range of the opponent's long-range firepower, and dare to concentrate most of the heavy weapons in your hand with open fire, it is looking for death." Afterwards, Peng Yi commented on the tactics of the Russians.

When the heavy artillery unit of the Russian army was defeated, the Russian infantry participating in the attack did not realize that the advantage of long-range firepower had been transferred to the opponent, and they still hit the opponent with heavy fire as rehearsed in advance. AND THESE WERE NATURALLY ATTACKED BY THE MOBILE AND FLEXIBLE 105MM TRUCK GUNS, AFTER THE RUSSIAN ARMY'S 152MM HEAVY ARTILLERY AND 107MM CANNON WITHDREW FROM THE BATTLEFIELD, THESE 105MM GUNS BECAME THE FARTHEST AND MOST POWERFUL EXISTENCE ON THE BATTLEFIELD, THEY USED MOBILITY TO CONSTANTLY ATTACK THE EXPOSED FIREPOWER POINTS OF THE RUSSIAN ARMY, SPARSE BUT ACCURATE SHELLING TORE THE CONCENTRATED MACHINE GUNS AND ARTILLERY INTO PIECES, AND AFTER LOSING THE LOCAL FIREPOWER ADVANTAGE, EVEN IF THERE WAS A DOMINANT INFANTRY CLUSTER, The Russians were still unable to break through the positions of the Chinese Army.

The well-placed positions put the enemy entering from any direction under the blow of circular fire. The striking effect of a weapon depends on the density, but it is definitely not determined by density alone, a machine gun has a good position, and the effect may be better than 3 or even more machine guns, which is why the British emphasized side fire in machine gun shooting! Use efficiency to compensate for the lack of quantity. At the same time, after the mortars and grenadiers have cleared the enemy's more threatening machine guns and mortars, the fire net formed by the machine guns is enough to lock any infantry unit to the death.

Part of the Russian army saw that the offensive was unsuccessful. They also tried to disperse the heavy firepower, and then used alternate cover to fight steadily. The offense dragged on for a long time. BUT IN FACT ON THE BATTLEFIELD WITHOUT THE SUPPORT OF 105MM HEAVY ARTILLERY. The Russian army, which has about twice the advantage in troops, is still unable to break through the opponent's position. The Russians, with their rough play, were never able to grasp the rhythm of the attack and faced the sudden appearance of firepower. There is only one way for them to play, and that is to hit each other hard until the Madsen machine gun runs out of bullets, and then change to a new magazine and continue firing until ....... Until a grenade or mortar shell fired from a grenadier is sent to the western sky.

When attacking, the Russians were too rigid in their tactics, and they rarely took the initiative to change positions. Expect to be able to rely on the machine guns and mortars in their hands to defeat the opponent. But alas, they were inferior to their opponents both in terms of weapon performance and in terms of the level of shooters, and the magazine of the Madsen machine gun was too small. It may be okay to use it for burst suppression, but if you continue to strafe, you should wash and sleep, and the smallest drum of the Type 1902 general-purpose machine gun on the opposite side has 75 rounds. The machine gun, which is usually used to maintain continuous suppression, is equipped with a 250-round chain. The Maxine machine gun would have worked. But the huge muzzle flame and volume made them the preferred target for mortars.

Relatively speaking, the heavy firepower of the Chinese Army is always changing, and a machine gun crew rarely runs out more than one bullet chain in one place. The Type 1902 general-purpose machine guns, equipped with 75 rounds of drums and bipedal mounts for light machine guns, were more nimble, and their task was to swim on the flanks, rarely strafing, but rather with accurate burst fire. Between squads, the cooperation of the Huaxia Army is also very delicate. It is rare for two machine guns to run out of ammunition at the same time. Everyone tried their best to ensure the continuity of firepower and not give each other a chance.

And in the back, grenadiers and mortars are mainly responsible for counter-fire points. They use artillery crews as units to find the opponent's heavy fire points, and then use bursts of fire to destroy the opponent in the shortest time possible. The position was then shifted and the artillery was re-set in a new place. The grenadier group consisted of only two people, and the 60 mortar group consisted of only 3 people, so they moved very quickly. In the eyes of the Russians, they are like swimming deaths, unpredictable but will give you a fatal blow at the critical moment.

But even so, the Russians, relying on their huge numerical superiority, are constantly using flesh and blood to wear down their opponents' defenses little by little. In the rain of bullets and flames, the Russian infantry involved in the attack was already numb. When they saw a point of fire spitting tongues of fire, they hurriedly gathered all the machine guns and mortars they could find to cover it, and several Madsen light machine guns hit sandbags or mounds of dirt, and the scattered sand and bullets forced the machine gun crew to take shelter. Then the Russian infantry rushed forward with their bayonet-mounted rifles, as if they had seen an opportunity.

When they approached about 100 meters, two figures flashed by, and two light machine guns fed by drums fired a fierce side fire at the attacking Russian infantry. Two drums of 100 rounds were poured out in 15 seconds, and nearly a squad of Russian infantry was swept down like wheat harvesting. After being hit by a Dahm bullet, fist-sized blood holes appeared in the Russian soldiers' bodies, and the blood quickly flowed out of their bodies under the pressure of their hearts, and their lives were lost with them.

The sudden turn of events did not deter the Russians, and after shooting and killing the two submachine gunners indiscriminately, the remaining Russian soldiers moved on. And when a Russian soldier jumped into the trench, he suddenly felt that his calf touched something, well, it should be a relatively tough wire such as iron wire, and when the Russian soldier reacted, a few black guys jumped out from the bottom of the trench, these things jumped about 2 to 3 meters high, and then bloomed a flower of death composed of steel balls. "Is it a thunderbolt?!" In the stunned gaze of the Russian soldier, a steel ball formed a funnel-shaped killing area from top to bottom, sending him and his comrades into the arms of death. In this war, there is no heavy artillery rhythm as the Russians imagined, and it is rare to kill and injure a large number of troops at one time, but the ghost-like machine gun crew and curved fire have been entangled in the Russian army so that they cannot continue to attack, and in this deadly struggle, the Russians' offensive ability has been consumed little by little until it collapses.

Just when the battle situation at the breakthrough gradually became clear, Zhang Tianyi found that something was wrong, they had been looking for the nearest enemy and then annihilating them, but they didn't even know where they were now, and as night fell, Zhang Tianyi and his troops took advantage of the last trace of sunset to rush into a defensive support point with semi-permanent bunkers. WITH THE SUPPORT OF 3 ASSAULT GUNS EQUIPPED WITH 75MM SHORT GUNS, AFTER SUCCESSFULLY KNOCKING ON THE CANS ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE, ZHANG TIANYI AND THE OTHERS QUICKLY PASSED THROUGH THIS AREA, AS FOR WHO THE ENEMY WAS, HE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY, THE ONLY THING THAT WAS CERTAIN WAS THAT THERE WAS AT LEAST A BATTALION-LEVEL HEADQUARTERS HERE.

When night fell, Zhang Tianyi's armored battalion went to an unknown place, after arranging sentry posts and defenses, he took a squad of infantry to start searching, he felt that he had already principled the battlefield, and from time to time there was a cannon sound behind him, the night battle should be continuing, but he was now in a fairly quiet environment, which made him feel a little uneasy in his heart.

"Look, there's a lake there." Following the direction pointed by a soldier, Zhang Tianyi saw an area that looked like a mirror in the moonlight, there was a lake, and around the lake, there seemed to be some shadows, if I guessed correctly, there should be some vehicles and horses. "Maybe we'll run into something of value." Then the moonlight, Zhang Tianyi said in his heart. This must be the emperor and queen, and it is impossible for his own people on the other side, the Chinese army has not completely consolidated the breakthrough, and it is impossible for such a large number of horse teams and convoys to rush through the defense line.

"Go back and prepare, we'll attack at dawn." In the face of this large-scale enemy, Zhang Tianyi still decided to try it, of course, this time must be chosen well, the night is a cover for the attacker, but the same defender can also hide some deadly weapons in it. After 1 day of bloody battles, Zhang Tianyi has realized that the No. 1 tank is actually quite fragile, and in the face of the 75MM gun, it is almost an instant kill, and the 57MM gun can also be destroyed. Even if you're unlucky, a cluster grenade can make a tank ineffective, and the appearance of a tank does change the situation on the battlefield, but it doesn't mean that a tank can ignore everything. And now in the face of this army that does not know the depths, Zhang Tianyi and they must plan carefully.

At this point in the war, about a third of the tanks in Zhang Tianyi's battalion have been destroyed or damaged and cannot be put into battle, of course, some of them will be recycled and repaired. Before launching the attack, Zhang Tianyi was supported by some self-propelled mortars and the No. 1 assault gun. But at this time, there were only more than 38 armored vehicles that could be used in Zhang Tianyi's hands. Among them were also 3 assault guns No. 1 and 4 heavy mortars. There are not even two companies of tanks left in his hands, and what is even more tragic is that the battalion commander is unable to command the battle because of serious injuries, and he, the commander of the assault company, will command the remaining strength to fight this battle, which cannot be said to be a challenge for Zhang Tianyi, who has been commanding more than ten tanks.

Throughout the night, except for the first half of the night, the officers and men of the armored battalion rested, and for the rest of the night, they had been doing one thing, that is, how to get as close to the opponent as possible without being detected. To the northwest of the lake there was a dwarf hill that provided cover for the troops. In terms of size, the opponent has at least one regiment or so, and a battalion is used to attack a regiment, and the opponent may also have heavy weapons. It had to take a certain amount of courage. Of course, there must be a careful plan. The time point was set at about 5 o'clock in the morning, the impact speed of the No. 1 tank was not fast, and after entering the effective firing range, the sky should have been slightly bright, in this case, the No. 1 tank's mobility and firepower advantages should be fully utilized, and the regiment should not be completely annihilated, but at least the heavy weapons and materials in it should be destroyed.
