862 Rush through a minefield
At one o'clock in the morning of October 6, Lin Yuan gave the order for a general attack, and the various units then set off, and at this time, the Russian army from top to bottom was still immersed in the excitement of capturing the tanks of Lin Yuan's troops, especially the division commander Adkins, seeing that the tank was so excited that his whole body trembled, although at this time they did not know what the tank was, but he couldn't help but think: "What is wrong with the Chinese?" How can they make such an advanced thing, it turns out that they can't even make an ordinary rifle! ”
Just when he was excited, suddenly his subordinates came to report: "Lin Yuan's troops have begun to attack!" ”
Adkins sneered: "Let them come, we will wipe them all out here, order all the troops, prepare to counterattack, and absolutely not let Lin Yuan's troops cross Kent Mountain!" ”
Adkins ordered an elite squad to guard the tanks, and then personally came to the front line, and the Russian army saw the supreme commander personally go into battle, and the crowd was excited, cheering, at this time the artillery detachment fired flares into the sky, illuminating the minefield in front of them as bright as day.
By the light of the flares, Adkins saw a large group of things heading towards the minefield, exactly the same thing as what they had captured, it was the tank under Lin Yuan's subordinates, Adkins sneered in his heart: "I know that you cleared some of the shell mines last time, but there are more in the minefield behind us, and we know that the artillery is not as good as you, so we converted all the shells into mines!" ”
Adkins saw the first big thing rushing near the crater, and thought to himself, "You can't climb up again when you rush down, do you want to fill the crater with this big thing?" He watched as the tank rushed down the crater, and in the blink of an eye, it came up from underground!
Adkins almost cried out in surprise, thinking, "Why didn't it sink into the ground?" But in front of his subordinates, he must not show a little panic, so he pretended to be calm, it turned out that Lin Yuan had already reconnoitred before the attack, the soil under the pit had been dried by the wind, and the tank would definitely not sink into it after it went below, so he ordered the tank to attack.
Adkins couldn't hold back his surprise and didn't give the order to shoot, because he knew that bullets couldn't penetrate the tank at all, and he was waiting for the tank to hit the shell mine, but he couldn't see where there was a mine from the high formation, so he could only wait with excitement, and at this moment, he saw that the big thing below turned to the side, and the tanks behind also turned.
Adkins was stunned at the time, because he understood that no one would turn in a minefield, and since there was a turn, there was only one situation - people in the minefield knew where there were mines, and their turn was to avoid mines!
Adkins wondered: "How can the Chinese know where we have buried mines?" Maybe the turn was just a coincidence. "Just when I was wondering, the tanks of the Chinese below turned another corner, and Adkins completely understood that it was no coincidence that the Chinese turned so many corners, they knew the location where the shell mines were laid, and they were dodging the mines by doing so!
Adkins thought in his heart: "No, we must not let them rush through the minefield, once they rush through the minefield, they will directly face our position, although that big guy looks very bulky, not like he can climb a mountain, but the Chinese have proved that their mountaineering combat ability in the northeast is extremely strong!" If their tanks rush through the minefield, clear our firing points with artillery, and then send out the infantry, our position will be finished! ”
Adkins thought to himself: "Under no circumstances can the Chinese tanks break through the minefield, and the only way to stop them is to let our cavalry go out and beat the Chinese back with explosives packs!" Adkins immediately ordered: "Cavalry dispatch, explosives pack ready, blow up the big guy who can move the Chinese at all costs!" ”
The fierce cavalry obeyed the order and rushed out of the camp at the back of the hillside, Lin Yuan had already expected the Russians to make this move, so he made some adjustments to the staffing of the infantry fighting vehicle, it turned out that the infantry fighting vehicle was loaded with an infantry squad, which had an automatic grenade launcher in it, Lin Yuan considered that in the environment in the car, the grenade launcher was difficult to play a role, so he temporarily removed the grenade launcher and replaced it with a machine gunner of the first division, and the infantry also removed three, and then replaced it with a machine gunner.
As a result, the firepower of each infantry fighting vehicle became: one 23 mm cannon, one 12.7 mm heavy machine gun, three 5.8 mm light machine guns and six automatic rifles, and the firepower increased instantly.
In the improvement of the infantry fighting vehicle at the same time, Lin Yuan also improved the tank, in the face of the Russian cavalry impact, the tank main gun is not a good weapon, although the main gun shell explosion power is strong, but here there is more sand and dust on the ground, the shell hit the explosion and the sky is full of dust, the infantry can not see where the enemy will rush from.
So in the face of cavalry, the machine gun is much better than the main gun, so Lin Yuan added a heavy machine gun to the gun commander, although the gun commander was able to operate a parallel machine gun, but the parallel machine gun is in the same direction as the main gun, if you want to turn the direction of shooting, you can only turn the turret, the speed is too slow, and with the machine gun that can be rotated, the effect is different!
Coupled with the guard plate in front of the machine gunner, the tank suddenly became a movable fire fortress, no matter how fast the Russian war horse was, it could not be faster than the bullet, and it was knocked down in a blink of an eye, under the strong firepower of Lin Yuan's troops, the Russian cavalry rushed up and was only sent to death in vain, but Adkins had no good way, and could only wait for the tank to hit the mine.
To his disappointment, the tank quickly drove through the minefield, and the shells began to fall on the fortress on the mountain, and to the surprise of the Russian army: those shells were like eyes, as soon as there was a fire at the fire point, there must have been a shell exploding at the fire point, and then the people inside were blown up into the sky!
Where did they know that this is the power of a laser rangefinder with night vision equipment, coupled with a two-way artillery stabilizer! The tanks rushed through the minefield and no longer advanced, but aimed at the firing points on the mountains and the barracks in depth, and Adkins' command instantly heard the exclamations of various parts: "Report to the division commander, the Chinese's artillery fire is too fierce, we can't bear it!" ”
Adkins was like an ant on a hot pot at this time, not knowing what to do, when he heard a more violent explosion in his barracks, this explosion was obviously different from the previous Chinese cannons, he hurriedly asked people to ask, the man came back and said: "The Chinese used more powerful cannons, one shell is enough to blow a pit several meters deep!" ”
It turned out that Lin Yuan saw that the armored troops had successfully broken through the minefield, so he ordered the 122 mm self-propelled howitzer unit to fire at the enemy's depth, and the huge explosion heard by the Russian army was the sound of the explosion of 122 mm shells, Adkins thought helplessly: "It's over, this place must not be able to be defended, let's retreat, retreat to Kyakhta, which is Russian territory, and when we get there, Lin Yuan may not continue to attack us." ”
