359 Tempting prisoners of war

In Zyuganov's heart, the other soldiers were dispensable, and the twelve guns were the real treasures, so he shouted loudly and asked the artillery to drive the horses pulling the artillery carts and disperse quickly, so as to reduce losses.

But the violent explosion drowned out his voice, and even if an artilleryman heard his call, they would pretend not to hear it, because the Russian army had never seen such a strong shelling, and they were already dumbfounded.

Compared with the infantry, the artillery is more shocked, first of all, the power of each shell explosion, the artillerymen know what the power of their 105 mm shells looks like, when the 122 mm shells explode, they heard that the power is far above their own shells, this is not surprising, when the oil industry and organic chemical industry developed, the production and manufacture of TNT explosives came naturally, so the shells were filled with TNT explosives, and the Russian shells were also filled with picric acid, and the power was naturally very different.

The second is the rate of fire of the shell, the artillerymen can't believe what kind of artillery, the rate of fire can be so fast, far more than their own artillery, this is not surprising, Luo Chaoying designed the retractor regression machine, the performance far exceeds the French M1895 artillery used reinforcing and reversing machine, and the Russian's spring rearing retractor is no way to compare.

Three minutes later, Yao Feng ordered the shelling to stop.

In three minutes of rapid fire, ten artillery pieces projected nearly 800 shells into the Russian ranks, causing huge casualties to the Russian army, five of the twelve 105 mm guns that the Russian army is proud of were blown into parts, and three of the body tubes were broken, and the spring used to control the retreat and reentry machine was disbursed, like a terrible broken bone, and the remaining four were stabbed all over by the killing fragments, and the garrison hoe was also blown off. The artillery was equipped with shells that were even worse, the picric acid explosives had poor impact resistance, and they exploded under a strong shock wave, so there were basically not a few left; As for the personnel, the losses are even greater, although the Russian army has a slender queue, but more than 800 soldiers were killed on the spot, and more than 500 were injured, and most of them were seriously injured, and special people need to be set aside to take care of them.

After listening to the report on the casualties, Zyuganov was so distressed that he almost turned his back on his anger, because almost all the people killed were people in the artillery battalion, and there was not a single officer above the company level in the artillery battalion, all of whom were killed, and a shelling by the Chinese was equivalent to directly blowing up the elite artillery battalion. Zyuganov realized that the attempts of the Russian army had been known to the Chinese, and there must be an encirclement waiting for him in front, so he decided to go back to his house and not advance, but before leaving, there were still many horses to be retrieved, and the Russian military horses had not heard such a strong explosion, so they were frightened and panicked and ran lifelessly. These horses were either carrying grain or pulling carts, so Zyuganov led his troops back some distance, ordered to rest in place, and sent people out to find the horses.

The fact that the Russian army stopped to look for horses was clearly seen by the reconnaissance company, and they immediately reported to Yao Feng, Yao Feng heard it and thought: "You still want to find horses!" There are no doors! ”

So Yao Feng ordered, the artillery fired another round of rapid fire at the Russian station, in order to save ammunition, this time only for one minute, Zyuganov originally thought that he had withdrawn from the range of the Chinese, but did not expect that before the ass was hot, the Chinese shells came again, and the frightened Russian army, after throwing down more than a hundred corpses, did not even look for horses, and frantically fled back to the fortress of Hudongshan.

The exact number of Russian casualties in this battle has always been a mystery, the Russian army felt that this defeat was a great shame, so it was secretive about the casualty figures, and the Chinese troops did not accurately count the number of Russian casualties when cleaning up the battlefield, because many corpses had been blown up. After learning that the Russian army was retreating, Lin Yuan ordered Liu Dart to lead the cavalry to clean up the battlefield, and the horses pulling carts and carrying goods fell into the hands of the Chinese troops.

The 2nd Independent Brigade also found the bodies of more than 200 seriously wounded Russian soldiers in the temporary camp of the Russian army, all of whom died of their wounds.

Lin Yuan did not let go of this incident, he ordered people to film the scene of the death of these seriously wounded people, and use them as a tool for psychological warfare.

When Chen Fei heard about the great victory of the artillery, he contacted Lin Yuan and said, "Great, so I don't have to send troops to intercept them." ”

Lin Yuan said: "I heard that you captured seven prisoners of war there, is it true?" ”

Chen Fei said: "Your information is really well-informed, I think there is something wrong with these prisoners of war, and I can't tell what is wrong." ”

Lin Yuan said: "Don't attack first, I'll go to your place to have a look." ”

Lin Yuan came to Hulin Town from the headquarters, Chen Fei was already waiting there, Lin Yuan said: "I came this time and sent you a big gift. ”

Chen Fei asked, "What kind of gift?" ”

Lin Yuan took out a piece of paper from his bag and said with a smile: "This is it." Chen Fei took it and looked at it, it was a leaflet, there was a picture on it, it was a photo of the seriously wounded of the Russian army and no one was treated, Lin Yuan said: "This is what we filmed, it is a good choice to use it to hit the morale of the Russian army." ”

Chen Fei nodded, returned the leaflet to Lin Yuan, and asked, "Should we think of a way to test those prisoners of war?" Lin Yuan put the leaflet back in his bag and asked, "What are the names of those prisoners of war?" ”

Chen Fei replied: "The one at the head is called Ivan Luzhkov, I don't remember the others, they seem to be this Luzhkov's subordinates, and they listen to him in everything." ”

Lin Yuan seemed to remember something, and said, "Ivan Luzhkov, I seem to have seen this name somewhere." ”

Chen Fei asked, "How could you have seen it?" ”

Lin Yuan said: "I remember, do you remember those documents you sent me?" There were personal information of officers in it, among them was this Ivan Luzhkov. ”

Chen Fei said: "This guy is still an officer? Lin Yuan said: "Not only an officer, but also a good officer, their family has been a nobleman for generations, his grandfather also won a medal in the Crimean War, he usually performs very well, and is recognized as the future leader of the Iron and Blood Regiment, how can such a person surrender to us?" ”

Chen Fei said: "Then what should we do? Lin Yuan said: "I have already figured out a way, but I can't be sure of the true purpose of his surrender, so let's use a method to test him." ”

Lin Yuan whispered a few words to Chen Fei, Chen Fei nodded and went out to prepare, Lin Yuan called Luzhkov to a room and said with a smile: "I am Lin Yuan, welcome you to us." Luzhkov smiled and said: "You are Lin Yuan, I have heard of your name for a long time, it is really an honor to meet you!" ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "You can take refuge in us, it means that you trust us very much, and we hope you can help us do something, okay?" ”

Luzhkov nodded again and again and said, "That's my honor." At this moment, a soldier ran in from outside and handed Lin Yuan a letter, Lin Yuan opened the letter, his face changed greatly, he threw the letter on the table, ignored Luzhkov, and walked out of the house.
