Chapter 1886: Another big defeat
The situation on the battlefield is like this, one side attacks, one side fights back, if the side that fights back, there is no movement for a long time, but it makes people feel unreliable and always feel unreliable.
Now, the troops of the independent division began to return fire, and those gushing tongues of fire were undoubtedly the fire points of the defenders, aimed at the infantry gradually approaching the south bank, and then, it was time for their tanks to exert their might, General Kurygin thought expectantly.
However, this was not the case, those tongues of fire, swept over the sea, flew over the heads of the Soviet infantry assault boats, and flew straight to the tanks on the beachhead, "Boom, boom! In an instant, a ball of fireball burst up, and the Soviet tank burned under the stunned gaze of General Kulygin, and then, the ammunition in the cabin exploded, and a more violent explosion and burning broke out, and the sound of the explosion continued endlessly, echoing in the open field, and the fire of the explosion reflected the sky at dusk.
"What's going on?" General Kurygin shouted in surprise, not only himself, but all the senior Soviet generals around him were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped, what new weapons did the Chinese use?
Just as Liu Hongzhang said, the Soviet tanks have become live targets, and the width of more than 100 meters is the best firing distance for the bazookas and recoilless guns developed by the Dingbian Arsenal, and moreover, they hit fixed targets, and the hit rate reached almost 100 percent, and not a single rocket or artillery shell was wasted.
On the north bank of the Sejingge River, a flaming fireball and rising black smoke made the scene spectacular, Liu Hongzhang and Ouyang Yishan were very happy to watch, and Meng Zhaoxu was dumbfounded, which troubled the Outer Mongolian border guards for several days and caused heavy casualties to the Soviet tanks. It's just like a fireball of fuel consumption, it's so unreal, it's like a dream, the tanks of the Soviet army don't even have a chance to fight back!
At the same time, Meng Zhaoxu also realized that the main field corps is incomparable to the second-line troops, which is not only reflected in the command ability of the unit commander and the military quality of the soldiers, but also in the level of equipment. Meng Zhaoxu asked with a stutter: "Two commanders, what kind of new weapons are used by the troops?" ”
Ouyang Yishan said with a smile: "New weapons? There are no new weapons, but bazookas and recoilless guns, which are specially designed to deal with armored targets and solid fire points. The direct corps was in the Indochina Peninsula, fighting against the Japanese and British armies. It's already equipped. Why, the Outer Mongolian border guards are not equipped with these two weapons? ”
After asking this sentence, Ouyang Yishan regretted it, if the Outer Mongolian border guards were equipped with bazookas and recoilless guns, Meng Zhaoxu would not have asked such a question, sure enough. Meng Zhaoxu said with a little bitterness: "No, if the Outer Mongolia border guards have these two weapons, the result of the battle." It won't be like that, we don't have to sacrifice so many fighters and destroy so many light and heavy machine guns! ”
Ouyang Yishan heard the bitterness and dissatisfaction in Meng Zhaoxu's tone, but this involved the unified allocation of the division's logistics department, and even the division commander's intentions, so he didn't have much to say, so he could only smile awkwardly.
Liu Hongzhang said with a big grin: "Section Chief Meng, don't worry, sooner or later, in the battle of the Sejingge River in Outer Mongolia, your border guards have played a majestic role, and the division commander will not ignore it, the Soviet tanks have been deflated, those infantry are the vegetables in our mouths, orders, mortars and light and heavy machine guns fire, at least half of the Soviet soldiers must be left!" Let's sleep well tonight! ”
At this time, the attacking Soviet infantry had approached the beachhead on the south bank, and the Soviet infantry who arrived first began to wade through the waist-deep river and rushed to the beachhead with all their might.
The explosion of artillery shells and the roar of light and heavy machine guns like a raging storm opened the prelude to the battle, and the loss of the suppression and cover of tank artillery fire on the north bank, and the firepower of the two brigades directly under the corps was a disaster that could not be avoided for the Soviet soldiers.
"Boom!" A mortar shell fell in the pile of Soviet infantry and exploded, the fireworks flashed, the stumps of the Soviet soldiers were broken, mixed with mud and flew into the sky, dense light and heavy machine gun bullets, swept down the Soviet soldiers in pieces, for the Soviet soldiers, the battle was cruel and bloody, countless companions, in front of their eyes, were hit by heavy machine gun bullets, broken in two, red blood, splashed on the face.
The next moment, he also became one of these corpses, looking from the north bank of the Sejingge River, on the south bank, the position of the defenders of the independent division, a blazing line of fire erupted, like an electric current bursting with sparks, rushing on the activated position, in the strong twilight wind, the sound of guns and cannons was loud and loud, and the whistling shells, raindrops of bullets, tore and pierced the bodies of Soviet soldiers.
The corpses of the Soviet soldiers were cascading on the banks of the Sejingge River, and the red blood, with the pungent smell of blood, flowed into the rushing river, and was carried away by the river, along with pieces of broken flesh and broken limbs.
The Soviet soldiers, who did not receive the order to retreat, numbly continued to pour onto the beachhead on the south bank, continued to force mortar shells and light and heavy machine gun bullets, harvesting fresh lives, bullet rain, endless bullet rain, shells, groups of black crow-like shells, nailed the Soviet soldiers firmly to the beachhead and riverside on the south bank, the color of blood and the flash of war shone on the northern steppe of Outer Mongolia at dusk.
Liu Hongzhang looked at this qiē coldly, accustomed to the scene of fighting on the battlefield, blood flowing like rivers and all over the field, and his mood did not fluctuate at all.
A mechanized brigade directly under the corps, equipped with mortars and light and heavy machine guns, the number of which exceeds the three to four infantry brigades of the Outer Mongolian border guards, fighting such a battle, handy, it is rare for the commander of the Soviet army to make a fool, send such a good opportunity, Ouyang Yishan touched Liu Hongzhang's shoulder, handed him a cigarette, and after lit it, the supreme commanders of the two battlefields actually sat on the gun box, leisurely spitting clouds and mist.
Ouyang Yishan asked casually: "Commander Liu, according to your experience, how many Soviet soldiers can be killed in this battle?" ”
Liu Hongzhang smiled a little treacherously and replied, "Aren't you still inexperienced?" In my opinion, Lao Maozi does not have seven or eight thousand people, not enough to fill in, if the Soviet commander continues to make fools and fights until tomorrow morning, it will be we to let go of the defense line of the Kaisege River, and the Soviet army will not have the strength to cross the river to attack in the south, we will save trouble! ”
Ouyang Yishan and Selenium, said: "Think beautifully, the commander of the Soviet army is definitely not a fool, I see, the battle will end soon, and it is clear that the battle to the death will be fought?" ”
As if in response to Ouyang Yishan's words, Colonel Liu Chenglin, the chief of staff of the brigade who was experiencing the battlefield situation, suddenly shouted: "Two commanders, the Soviet army has begun to retreat!" ”
Ouyang Yishan laughed proudly, pointed at Liu Hongzhang and said, "How about it, the wishful thinking has failed!" ”
He also said to Liu Chenglin: "Chief of Staff Liu, order the mortar troops, extend the shooting, let's use the shells to send the Soviet army a ride, and then, immediately conceal, in addition, order other troops, immediately enter the anti-artillery hole and shelter, the Soviet commander is angry, don't come to a sudden artillery attack!" ”
On the north bank of the Grag River, General Kulygin's face turned pale and he muttered to himself in pain: "Oh my God! What kind of opponent is this? Where did such ferocious firepower come from, that is, to build a steel barrier on the south bank with shells and bullets," he would have known, but in a prisoner of war camp.
After only a little more than an hour, the Soviet army's offensive ended in a fiasco, the setting sun converged the last trace of fire clouds, the night shrouded the grasslands of northern Outer Mongolia, the strong north wind blew away the smoke on the battlefield, on the other side of the river, the wreckage of the Soviet tanks burned, still braving the dim fire, the last batch of mortar shells, blew up a few Soviet assault boats, and then, the fierce artillery sound, completely calmed down, and the wilderness returned to tranquility.
Only the corpses of Soviet soldiers piled up on the shore told the tragedy just now, Liu Hongzhang retracted his gaze, and said to Ouyang Yishan with regret: "It's not fun!" The battle was full of energy, and the old Mao soldiers admitted it, but they did not send out infantry, but only used mortars and light and heavy machine guns to end the enemy's attack, such a battle has never been fought! Brother Ouyang, in your opinion, compared with the Soviet soldiers and the Japanese soldiers, which one is more difficult to deal with? ”
Ouyang Yishan laughed and said: "You are a typical cheap and obedient person, if you talk about the combat quality and combat effectiveness of the soldiers, the Japanese soldiers are much more fierce, if you talk about weapons and equipment, then the Japanese army is inferior, today's battle, if it is fought with the Japanese army, our results may be more than doubled!" ”
Liu Hongzhang felt the same way, nodded and said: "That's right, the Japanese soldiers have such a fierce force of bushido, and there are very few surrenders, but in the face of superior firepower, this bushido spirit is the poison that sends soldiers into the whirlpool of death. ”
"Face-to-face hand-to-hand combat, white-knuckle combat, spiritual strength far exceeds weapons and equipment, fortunately, the troops of our independent division, there is no shortage of both, weapons and equipment are not bad, and the morale of the soldiers is not lacking, so whether it is a little devil or an old man, in front of the division commander, it is not pleased!"
Speaking of this, Liu Hongzhang patted his head, "Look, it's far away, Cheng Lin, immediately report the battle situation to the division headquarters, each regiment counts the number of casualties, destroys the enemy, and orders the troops, tonight, sleep well!" ”
