346 Indoor Bloody Battle
Just as the Russian gunners were preparing to launch, three rockets swooped down almost simultaneously, and after the violent explosion, only a dozen bloody corpses remained on the artillery position.
As soon as the bridgehead and artillery positions were lost, the Russian army was left with only two watchtowers, and the Russian troops on the watchtowers were worthy of being elite, they did not surrender like the previous Russian army, but relied on the positions around the watchtowers and watchtowers to block the advance of the first brigade.
Although the rate of fire of the Russian rifle is slow, but the Russian soldiers' shooting skills are exquisite, coupled with the machine guns on the watchtower, the vanguard of the first brigade was pressed near the bridgehead, they launched several charges, but they all ended in failure, fifteen soldiers were killed, Lin Yuan originally thought that he could take the watchtower in one go, but he did not expect the combat effectiveness of this Russian army to be so tenacious, he hurriedly contacted Zhang Yao and ordered them to attack the watchtower.
Zhang Yao ordered the bazooka men to bombard the watchtower, and the three bazookas were aimed at the watchtower on the east side at the same time. It turned out that the Russian army had learned the power of Lin Yuan's artillery, 60 mm mortars, combined with advanced observation and sighting equipment, caused major casualties to the Russian army, so when the Russian army built the watchtower, it specially used solid rocks and reinforced concrete to build the watchtower like an iron wall.
The caliber of the rocket is only 40 millimeters, which is not enough to blow up the watchtower, leaving only a few large craters outside, if the Russian watchtower is only built of concrete, then the armor-shattering warhead of the rocket can exert the armor-shattering effect, like dealing with the Japanese bunker, blowing down the stones on the wall, killing and injuring the personnel inside.
However, the armor fragmentation warhead has a fatal weakness, that is, it is afraid of composite armor, because the change of materials will greatly weaken the armor fragmentation effect, in modern warfare, due to the large use of composite armor by tanks, many anti-tank units are no longer equipped with armor fragmentation shells, so these three rockets failed to rely on the armor fragmentation effect to kill and injure the Russian army.
However, the violent explosion could knock out the Russian troops inside, and they thought: "Why did the Chinese come up from behind?" So they divided their forces and observed from the shooting holes in the back.
Zhang Yaozhi said that as soon as the rocket was fired, his squad would be exposed, so he immediately made a decision and ordered: "Attack the watchtower!" ”
The position outside the watchtower of the Russian army is a bunker made of sandbags, and when they built the position, they did not take into account that someone could touch their back, so there was no cover behind the watchtower, which gave Zhang Yao's team an opportunity to take advantage of it, and they rushed to the position outside the watchtower at high speed.
The Russian troops in the watchtower found that there were Chinese behind, but they did not notify the Russians outside the watchtower in time, so when Zhang Yao and they rushed closer, the Russians in the bunker did not know that there was already an enemy behind them, and they were still raising their guns to shoot in the direction of the bridgehead.
The fifty infantry of Zhang Yao's squad are carefully selected, and after special training, they are good at shooting while sprinting, and the gunshots rang out like cannons, and the Russian troops behind the bunker were knocked down, Zhang Yao led the squad to successfully capture the bunker, and then attacked the inside of the watchtower.
The Russian troops in the watchtower saw the Chinese soldiers rushing in, and they were still wondering: "The Chinese were still behind the watchtower just now, why did they run into the watchtower all of a sudden!" At this moment of hesitation, the guns in the hands of the squad members went off, and the bullets entered the flesh and skin, making a terrifying "fluttering" sound. The Russian soldiers woke up from a dream and raised their guns to fight back, but their guns were too long to be used in the narrow watchtower, and a Russian infantry squad on the first floor was wiped out in a blink of an eye.
There are five floors in the watchtower, and Zhang Yao knew that if he went up the stairs, the first soldier to appear on the upper floor would inevitably be shot by the Russian army, so Zhang Yao said to his subordinates: "Don't show your head when you go up, and throw the grenade up when you look almost done!" ”
Zhang Yao led the three soldiers up a few steps and found that there was a corner in front of him, Zhang Yao knew that this kind of indoor combat, the corner is very dangerous, it is very easy to expose yourself when approaching the corner, even if you are light, no matter how fine your movements are, your shadow may betray you, the enemy hiding in the corner is very likely to see you in advance through the shadow, fortunately, the Russian army in this era is not equipped with grenades, otherwise throw a grenade from behind, and you will die.
Zhang Yao thought to himself, even if the Russian army found out, he would have to lean out of the corner to shoot, in this way, the reaction speed he had tempered in the Marine Corps would be useful, and he believed that his speed must be much faster than this group of **.
Zhang Yao put his finger on the ring of the trigger, so that he would not touch the trigger by mistake because of nervousness, and took two more steps, and sure enough, a figure turned from behind the corner, Zhang Yao did not hesitate at all, aimed at the figure, fired three shots in a row, and the ** screamed and fell to the ground, rolling down.
Zhang Yaozhi said that behind this corner is where the second-layer Russian army is located, he motioned to his subordinates to take out the grenade, pull the ring, stop in his hand for two seconds, and throw it out, this is the experience of a veteran, the grenade stays in the hand for two seconds, and when it is thrown in, it explodes in the air, so as not to explode after landing, and then be picked up and thrown out by the enemy.
The explosion sounded inside, followed by a scream, several soldiers pulled out their feet and wanted to rush inside, Zhang Yaoyi stretched out his hand to stop them, listened carefully, confirmed the sound of no one moving inside, and then led the soldiers to rush in.
There were sixteen Russian soldiers inside, and the shrapnel net composed of four grenades exploded in an instant and ten were torn apart in an instant, and six were blown up.
Zhang Yao made a gesture to shoot, and the soldiers behind him stepped forward and aimed at the heads of the wounded soldiers, one by one, killing all of them, and the guns were scattered all over the ground, Zhang Yao didn't have time to check if they could no longer be used, in case one of these guns was good, these wounded soldiers picked it up and shot at their own people, so the casualties caused were too undeserved.
Zhang Yao led his subordinates to do the same, and captured the watchtower twenty minutes later, and then reported the battle situation to Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan heard that the watchtower in the east had been successfully taken, and couldn't help but shout hello, and then ordered the troops to outflank the west from the watchtower in the east.
Zhang Yao ordered the bazooka squad to go to the top floor and shoot at the bunker position outside the West Guard Tower, and one rocket after another whistled out and exploded in the bunker position, and the Russian troops inside never dreamed that the Chinese shells would come from overhead, and they were killed one after another before they could understand.
The smoke and dust from the explosion obscured the view of the machine guns in the watchtower, and the fighters behind the bridgehead took advantage of this opportunity to rush out of the bridgehead, outflank the watchtower on the east side, and seize the watchtower on the west side in one fell swoop.
The battlefield was basically calm, and all 145 people of a company of Russian troops stationed here were annihilated, while Lin Yuan's troops only paid the price of 15 dead and 20 wounded.
As soon as the riverbank position was taken, Lin Yuan immediately ordered his subordinates to march to Hulin Town, an important stronghold on the periphery of the Russian army's fortress, and the jungle on Wanda Mountain was luxuriant, so there were many kinds of animals and plants.
The Russian army abandoned Hulin Town and transferred to the fortress in the mountains, and the mountain division carefully prepared by Lin Yuan was finally about to play its role.
