This first battalion is the unit that fought the battle of Lahasusu, and the battalion commander is Zhang Yao, and Lin Yuan temporarily set up his headquarters in the first battalion in order to fight the first battle of the reconquest.

When he came to an unfamiliar place to fight, the first thing the commander did was to find out the situation with the local villagers, who said: "The name of this river comes from the Manchu language, which means 'the riverbed flows uncertainly', and its course changes frequently, so it leaves a large area of marshland on both sides of the river. If you want to cross the river in this vicinity, you can only take the small commercial bridge. ”

Lin Yuan asked again: "Then did the Russians cross the river?" ”

The fellow replied: "The Russians have built watchtowers on the other side of the river, and their men rarely come out, and they usually patrol near the Xiaoshang Bridge. Lin Yuan originally wanted to arrest a few Russians to understand the situation, but when he heard this, he thought, "I have to make another plan." ”

After listening to the introduction of the villager, Lin Yuan went to the river to observe the terrain, the river is winding, and the place one kilometer away from the river is full of swampland, and it is impossible for a large army to pass from above.

The small commercial bridge is wooden, nearly 100 meters long, five meters wide, there are solid stone roads on both sides to walk, it is October at this time, it is the autumn flood season of the Noro River, so the water flow under the bridge is extremely fast, there is a bridgehead on the opposite bank of the bridge, two watchtowers, the machine guns on the watchtower form crossfire, and the bridge is blocked.

Between the watchtowers, there is an artillery position, two artillery pieces covered with tarpaulin, from the angle of the barrel of the gun, Lin Yuan deduced that it is two cannons with a long range, there is a special person on duty outside the artillery position, Lin Yuan took a semi-automatic rifle, fired five shots at the sky, only to see people suddenly appear in the bridgehead, and the people outside the artillery position also rushed to the side of the artillery, lifted the tarpaulin, and prepared to open the cannon.

Lin Yuan looked at his watch and said to Zhang Yao beside him: "From hearing the gunfire to assembling, it took less than five minutes, and this army of ** Zizi seems to be an elite force." Lin Yuan did not guess wrong, stationed here, is a company of the famous Russian Iron Blood, about 300 people, in history, this regiment has been in the Northern War between Russia and Sweden in the great feats, was sent to Wandarshan to build and hold the fortress, the commander of the Russian army Grodeko has high hopes for this force.

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "If you want to storm this bridge, the casualties will definitely not be small, is there any better way." ”

Lin Yuan looked at Zhang Yao, pointed to the swamp by the river, and said, "Are you familiar with such an environment?" ”

Zhang Yao was stunned for a moment and said: "There is also such a wetland on the seaside, we encountered it when we were training in the Marine Corps, what's wrong?" Lin Yuan said, "Aren't all the soldiers under your command all fishermen from the Ryukyus?" They must have known how to cross the swamp. ”

Zhang Yao smiled helplessly: "If you want to talk about the method of the swamp, I also know the way, we have also trained, the simplest way, before leaving, use a wooden stick to explore the road, you will not fall in, but this method of travel is too slow, once it is discovered by the enemy, it will cause great casualties." ”

Lin Yuan said: "The reason why the swamp will trap people is because when people step on it, the force area is small and the pressure is strong, if people step on the plank, the force area will be increased, and the person will not fall in, and then use the oar-like thing to push the mud, and the plank can go forward like a boat." In some coastal areas, fishermen use this method to catch fish in the seaside tidal flats. ”

Zhang Yao hurriedly said, "I'll arrange it." ”

As soon as Zhang Yao investigated in the army, he learned that more than a dozen soldiers had such an experience, so he called them all, and as soon as Lin Yuan asked, they said: "This kind of thing is called a mud tablet in our place, and if you put it on your feet, you can walk freely in the swamp." ”

Lin Yuan ordered them to go to the villager's house to buy wood and make such clay tablets, and then selected an area to cross the river, where the river channel was very wide, so the river flow was very slow, and with the water nature of the warriors, they could swim smoothly.

After two days of preparation, at ten o'clock in the evening of October 3, fifty soldiers rowed mud tablets and marched to the other side of the river.

Lin Yuan assigned Zhang Yao to personally lead the team, and in order to strengthen the firepower of this team, Lin Yuan specially assigned a bazooka squad of the Sixth Division to Zhang Yao's command.

Fifty warriors trudged through the muddy swamp, their movements were very light, trying not to make too much noise, and at a distance of less than two thousand meters, they actually took four hours!

When they arrived at the other side, it was already two o'clock in the morning on October 4, and they did not care about their fatigue, and marched in the direction of the bridgehead according to the original plan.

The barren grass near the bridgehead was more than half a man high, which provided them with excellent cover, Zhang Yao led the team to approach to a place two hundred meters away from the bridgehead, and Zhang Yao immediately ordered: Bazooka squad preparation.

The bazooka squad in the 6th Division is equipped with three rocket launchers, each with three shooters, carrying eight rockets, and these 24 rockets will give the enemy a head-on blow. Although it was late at night, the bridgehead was still heavily guarded, and the two searchlights were scanning the bridge alternately, and the Russian troops in the bridgehead were in good spirits and did not get tired at all.

The bazooka squad began to act, one shooter loaded, one shooter aimed and fired, and soon the reload was completed, and the shooter put up the ruler and put the bridgehead into the crosshairs.

Zhang Yao made a gesture to launch, the shooter calmly pulled the trigger, and the rocket dragged a half-meter-long tail flame to roar away, and a strong high-temperature gas sprayed out from the tail of the bazooka, kicking up dust more than two meters high, enveloping the shooter.

The tail of the rocket allowed it to fly smoothly in the air, and the speed of nearly 500 meters per second allowed it to reach the target instantly, the rocket hit the sandbag of the bridgehead, and then the explosion began, the sandbag flew far away under the huge gas, the glass of the searchlight was shattered by the shock wave, and four of the eight Russian soldiers inside were killed on the spot, and the rest were shocked unconscious.

As soon as the bazooka squad hit the target, a red signal flare rose in the sky in the distance, and in the red light and shadow, the 1st Brigade of the 1st Division launched an attack on Xiaoshang Bridge.

This is exactly Lin Yuan's two-pronged approach, with the small team attacking behind the Russian army and the large force launching a frontal attack at the front.

Although the power of the bazooka is great, it also has a fatal weakness, that is, the fire after launch, the smoke is very large, and it is easy to expose the target, so after the rocket launcher, the bazooka squad quickly shifts its position and prepares to attack the next target, two 105mm guns.

Because the bridge is relatively narrow, so the ballistic low-stretch artillery is extremely lethal to the attacking troops, and the Russian army reacted very quickly after the explosion, they lifted off the tarpaulin on the artillery, and the gun body slowly pointed in the direction of the bridge.

If these two guns can't be blown up in time, the bridge attack force will suffer huge losses, Zhang Yao led the team to touch the artillery position, because of the first division's bridge attack operation, the Russian army did not notice the team led by Zhang Yao. Zhang Yao and the others successfully approached less than a hundred meters away from the artillery, this time the three bazookas were prepared at the same time, and the others were on guard around, watching the Russian gunners open the bolts, load the warheads, and then put in the firing cartridges, close the bolts, and are about to launch!
