Chapter 205: The Trench
The Japanese retreated and did not rout, and the headquarters moved back three kilometers and set up camp in a depression.
Although there was no rout, the losses were not small, and in one day's attack, seven or eight thousand men were thrown in, and nearly two hundred guns of more than 75 caliber guns were lost. The loss of artillery shells and supplies is also not small, because of the nearby supply, it is judged that the opponent's artillery more than five kilometers will not be too much, even if it can reach the depth of the position, in a position that stretches for several kilometers, ten or twenty pieces of artillery will not play a big role. Besides, they still have thirty 300-caliber heavy guns, as long as they find the opponent's artillery position, one round is enough to destroy a regiment-level artillery position, and the two heavy artillery positions are extremely secretive, and the front is covered by dirt bags, theoretically even if the position is found according to the trajectory, it will not pose a threat to the position.
It's just that the Japanese didn't know that their artillery positions had already been approached for reconnaissance, and they had designed the angle of flank attack, and designed two new positions specifically for these two artillery positions in advance. In addition, the Japanese army erroneously believed that the enemy did not have more than 50 long-range artillery pieces based on the judgment of the large-caliber artillery in the nearby city, so that the artillery positions four or five kilometers away from the positions were destroyed at the same time, and the headquarters was within the coverage of the artillery fire.
The soldiers of the advance army quickly cleaned up the battlefield after the artillery stopped bombardment. As the blood is seen more, the immunity is naturally high, and the cleaning speed of the battlefield is quite fast.
Bags of bullets and grenades, and belongings were brought back to the bunker, keeping the guards in the bunker busy, or soon, piling up near the firing port.
Half an hour later, when the battlefield was almost cleaned, the reconnaissance fighters who were following the Japanese army sent back the news that the Japanese army had reconstructed the artillery position. It has been encamped.
"Withdraw your position!"
Dong Ku was worried that the Japanese would be shelled, so he gave the order to retreat.
The soldiers reluctantly threw away some big things, and everyone returned to the position with the best supplies as best they could.
However, the Japanese did not launch an artillery attack, and apparently, they were not sure if there were troops out of the defensive bunkers on this side.
Compared to the Twin Cities side. The Japanese artillery on the Qiqihar side made enough money, and the artillery roared for two days, but it was not returned fire.
Although General Zhao had more than fifty long-range artillery pieces, he did not bombard the artillery positions on the opposite side.
The anti-United Nations, who was accustomed to living a poor life, cherished the ammunition in their hands, especially the artillery shells. They don't have the skills of the advance army in artillery shooting, nor do they have such accurate reconnaissance coordinates, let alone calculate the data needed for effective shooting. Therefore, although General Zhao built an artillery position behind the position, there was no means of concealment with insurance. and lack of ability, he chose positional warfare.
The Japanese artillery was divided into three tiers of positions, which were echelon artillery positions with a range of five kilometers, ten kilometers, and more than ten kilometers. The number of artillery pieces also reached more than 200, and the intensity of artillery fire was much greater than that of the twin cities.
But after two days of shelling, the position on the opposite side of the river bridge was undamaged, and the first day it was blown up in a mess. The next morning it was back to normal. Even if the artillery was concentrated on the opposite side of the river bridge at a distance of about a kilometer, the frozen layer several meters thick was not torn apart in the intensive bombardment. Because General Zhao used frozen soil to water Dong Gai. The power of the cannonballs has been reduced by more than 10%, so the effect of the bombardment is much worse than that of the Twincastle side.
The Japanese drama made the artillery bombardment ineffective, so they launched a bombardment stop-and-stop, and in the middle of the interval, the tactics of adding fuel and depleting the ammunition of the opposing defense, and at the same time, mortars and grenadiers approached to attack. Trying to tear the position apart with a massive number of shells.
It's a pity that their set has always had little effect, and the positions did not delay the jetting of tongues of fire during the shelling.
In the position, a veteran soldier of the Anti-United Nations held a cigarette and listened to the artillery battle above his head. I don't see the tension of the big war at all.
During the shelling, the Japanese tanks finally couldn't hold it up the next day, and more than a dozen tanks rumbled up the river bridge.
Observing the hole, the Anti-United Nations fighters saw the tank rumbling out of the gunpowder smoke, and he hurriedly shouted: "Iron fist! Sixteen tanks, don't let them get too close! ”
With the shouting, the positions of the shooting holes one by one, the anti-United Nations fighters quickly got out of the way, and one by one the iron fists poked out of the firing holes.
A company commander who was specially responsible for commanding and dispatching Iron Fist repeated next to the platoon: "Remember your position, from left to right, don't shoot too hard!" ”
Although the Anti-Union got all the iron fists from Dong Ku, there were only more than 1,500 of them. So, of course, they will use it carefully.
The tanks rumbled forward on the river bridge, and the heavy machine guns on it unscrupulously sprayed tongues of fire, suppressing the opposing position.
At this moment, a cloud of fire suddenly erupted from the front position, and in the firelight, objects with tail wings flew over one by one.
Is it the opponent's advanced weapon?
As soon as the idea of a Japanese drama in the tank flashed, the object crashed head-on like a meteor.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, the head of the tank shook violently, and a burst of flames erupted, and then, the inside of the tank exploded again, lifting off the top of the tank and burning violently.
Before the second tank could understand what was going on, the engine stalled with a loud bang, and the driver and the tank gunner inside were all killed in the thick black smoke rising from the tank.
"Stand back!! Back off!! ”
The Japanese shouted in horror, and Tai'an Ke in the back tried to flee back to the other side.
But they have been locked, and Hades' invitation has been delivered, so how can they not escape back?
At the same time that the tanks stopped moving forward and were about to retreat, one meteor after another rushed towards the tank, and then in the roaring explosion, the tanks were paralyzed, and a raging fire ignited on the bridge, blocking the entire bridge deck.
While the Japanese army felt sorry for the tanks, they also knew that it was impossible for the road to attack from the bridge smoothly, so the commander gave the order, "Pass the river!!" ”
But how easy is it to come over from the river? How can a river with a snow thickness of more than one meter be easily broken through? At the moment when the Japanese army cautiously walked on the snow shell and rushed towards the opposite bank, a projectile flew down from the sky, and the roaring explosion immediately turned Xuexue shell into a desert and a quicksand.
The thickness of the snow that was enough to lose the short Japanese army immediately made them guilty early, and in the roaring explosion, one by one disappeared in an instant, and then a pair of hands stretched out on the snow, struggling, revealing their heads.
But as soon as their heads were revealed, most of the snow particles in front of them had not yet been knocked off, and the gunshots rang out on the opposite bank.
In the pop sound, the heads exposed on the snow exploded like watermelons, and the bright red of the snow suddenly appeared, and in just a few seconds, the snow-white river surface was dyed red.
The Japanese troops on the other side looked at the Japanese soldiers struggling in the snow on the river, and they could only order artillery fire to try to save the lives of a few more soldiers.
In the past two days, they have tried several methods, but apart from throwing the lives of more than 10,000 soldiers, this river bridge is stunned.
"When did the fighting power of the people of China become so strong?"
Koizumi Junshan, who was in charge of the command, looked at the opposite side suspiciously.
It's been two days, and I've attacked five or six times, but I didn't attack it. Ma Zhanshan's guards back then were still fresh in his memory, but they were far from reaching this level! After all, the powerlessness of the empire at that time was not as strong as it is now.
Do you have to wait until the plane can take off?
Koizumi pondered, put down the binoculars and ordered: "Continue the shelling, and exclude the reconnaissance team from finding a location where they can land smoothly!" ”
The artillery of the Japanese army is not much stronger than the anti-United Nations fighters, they don't have to worry about it in the bunker at all, the frozen soil layer after a few meters is not easily torn apart by one or two hundred caliber artillery.
The shelling continues, and you don't dare to attack anymore. The corpses left on the river bridge are already thick, and they are all frozen together with the bridge deck, and if they are attacking hard, the damage will be too great.
General Zhao and General Yang looked at the smoke not far away, and they admired Dong Ku's defense system. The Japanese attack could not break through at all, and the artillery bombardment, under the repair of the naval army at night, did not work at all.
"Lao Yang, what do you think of Dong Ku, such a solid position designed is simply a moat!"
"yes."
General Yang also sighed: "This person is very talented, but looking at the amount of ammunition delivered yesterday, I doubt how he got it, but obviously there is no pressure on his side, the telegram just now has already said that the Japanese army has retreated five kilometers, and there will be no more fighting in three days." ”
General Zhao nodded and said, "He won't leave ammunition for himself, but I really don't understand, where did his ammunition come from?" The number is so huge. ”
"But apparently he couldn't produce it himself, and the only explanation was to stuff the reserves there. Could it be that the fortress is an armament? ”
The two of them looked at each other, shook their heads at the same time, and gave up thinking about the question.
Dong Ku didn't know that the two of them were talking about themselves, and he judged from the news that the scouts had arrived to reconnoiter that the Japanese had given up the attack and were obviously resting, perhaps preparing to wait for the plane.
Plane? Dong Ku is not worried, he has already prepared gifts for the Japanese army, once the plane can take off, he can leave as much as he wants, and he will not bring any customs declaration.
At this time, he was more concerned about Lao Xi, and Christian's phone call to Harbin told him that Lao Xi had sent someone to talk to the Japanese, which could meet his requirements and transport the lathe to Heilongjiang. As long as the lathe arrives, Dong Ku believes that if he gives himself three months, he can produce the current weapons, and in half a year, he can produce more than the current weapons. At that time, he believed that he would have no problem fighting the Japanese army alone.
It seems that the oil field is going to be prepared......
Dong Ku put down the documents in his hand, the exploration of the oilfield is not a big problem, the key is the placement of relevant equipment, and the transportation of crude oil should be put on the agenda. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
