Lin Yuan asked, "How to control?" Is there anything wrong with the way it is controlled? ”

The technician replied: "The grenade launcher on our tank now has a firing control box inside the hull, and the turret has reserved cable holes for laying the connecting cable between the control box and the grenade launcher, and if we want to install a new grenade launcher, there is no hole in the turret, and we can't drill holes in the turret."

Lin Yuan said: "Then just like that, let's lead the cable out of the hatch cover. ”

The technician said, "In that case, the hatch won't close." ”

Lin Yuan said: "We will do this first, in order to prevent the enemy from going to the roof of the car, we will strengthen the protection of the mine-sweeping tank during the battle." ”

The technician nodded and said, "Okay, we'll change it when the meeting is over." ”

Lin Yuan then announced the end of the meeting, and then the technical department began to modify the minesweeping tank, and when the modified tank appeared in front of Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan nodded silently, because the front armor of the tank was full of grenade launchers, and it would definitely be no problem to sweep away the enemy's minefields.

Lin Yuan saw that the number of this tank was "Dong Qi Liu", so he asked Xiao Yingwu: "What about the crew of this tank?" I want to meet them. ”

Xiao Yingwu then called the commander, the gun commander and the driver over, and Lin Yuan smiled: "How did you get chosen?" ”

The commander was the leader of the tank group, so this question should be answered by him, only to hear him say in a loud voice: "It's the organization's arrangement!" ”

Lin Yuan asked this question casually, but after listening to the commander's answer, he found that the gun commander and the driver were unhappy, Lin Yuan thought to himself: "What a great honor it is to modify the tank, why are they unhappy?" So Lin Yuan asked, "What's wrong with you?" Why are you so unhappy? ”

Seeing Lin Yuan's kind appearance, the artillery commander hesitated for a long time before saying, "Who made us unlucky and drew the forty-fifth?" ”

Lin Yuan was suddenly confused, and asked, "Did you decide to modify it by lot?" It's a good thing to draw it, why do you want to say it's unlucky? ”

The tank battalion commander on the side said embarrassedly: "Lin Shuai, that's the case, at the beginning, everyone heard that the tank was going to be modified, and they all rushed to change their own, but when the comrades of the technical team brought us the modification map to see, everyone was unwilling, because the modified tank ......."

The battalion commander stood up when he said this, and Xiao Yingwu said sharply: "What do you say!" Say it! ”

The battalion commander didn't speak, but the artillery commander spoke: "The modified tank is too ugly, the infantry brothers laughed at us, and even the fellows who came to the camp to help made fun of us, saying that we were driving a big hedgehog to fight **." ”

Lin Yuan couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard this, and when he looked at the tank carefully, it really looked like a hedgehog, but Xiao Yingwu was a little angry, and yelled at the battalion commander: "The weapons and equipment are not women's faces, are they used to look good?" How did you become a battalion commander? ”

Lin Yuan hurriedly said: "Old Xiao, don't be angry, the soldiers want to make their equipment look good, doesn't it mean that they like their equipment?" Only if you like your own equipment can you use your equipment well! ”

Xiao Yingwu's anger subsided a little, and Lin Yuan said to the tank commander: "How is the shooting level of your crew?" ”

The commander said proudly: "The entire tank battalion, the top five did not say." ”

Lin Yuan said: "Okay! Your shooting level is good, but it does not mean that you can do a good job of grenade launchers, you are going to open up a road in the minefield, the requirements for the landing point of the grenade are relatively high, according to the charge of the enemy's artillery mines, the range of our grenades can be detonated is 30 meters, you have to control the landing point of the grenades, let them be next to each other, if the control is not good, there will be no cleared mines, and the follow-up troops will be killed and injured as a result, do you understand? ”

When Lin Yuan said this, the three of them nodded in admiration, and Lin Yuan asked, "What's your name?" ”

The commander said: "My name is Zhang Yaowu, the gun commander's name is Sun Ting, and the driver's name is Zheng Qiang." ”

Lin Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, I remember you, practice the grenade shooting technique well, and it's up to you when you attack!" ”

Encouraged by Lin Yuan like this, the three of them were suddenly full of enthusiasm and replied loudly: "Yes!" ”

After Lin Yuan finished his inspection, he returned to the staff headquarters to see the movement of the 15th Division, at this time the 15th Division had stopped advancing, relying on Kent Mountain to build fortifications, and the cavalry troops on both wings began to retreat, Lin Yuan made a judgment, they must hold on to the north bank of the Sesagoge River, and Kent Mountain is the barrier in front of the Sesagoge River, and the 15th Division is building fortifications here for only one purpose, that is: to delay our attack and buy time for the fortifications of the other two armies.

Lin Yuan secretly laughed in his heart, and thought to himself: "Cavalry, it's okay to charge and fight, but building fortifications is not what they are good at, so I will capture Kent Mountain in one fell swoop and wipe out the 15th Division and the other two troops on the south bank of the Sesagoge River!"

On October 3, after Lin Yuan's careful preparations, the troops began to march in the direction of Kenyang Mountain, and in one day, the troops arrived at a small town 15 kilometers away from Kent Mountain.

When Lin Yuan saw these businessmen, he asked them about the situation of the Russian army, and as soon as he inquired, he learned that they would regularly send some daily necessities to the Russian army, Lin Yuan thought to himself: "This is the perfect time for us to find out the news of the Russians." So Lin Yuan sent scouts to take advantage of the opportunity to send daily necessities to the Russian army to enter the enemy's military camp to reconnoitre.

As soon as the scout returned, Lin Yuan hurriedly called him to his place and asked him about the situation, and the scout said: "Outside the main position on Kent Mountain, there are a lot of traces of turning in the grass, and it is obvious that something has been buried underground. ”

Lin Yuan asked again, "What about the enemy's artillery?" In what location? ”

"When I went, I saw them loading their guns on their wagons and transporting them north, saying they were going to go back to China, but I didn't see them carrying the shells," said the scout. ”

Lin Yuan nodded, thinking: "It seems that the enemy has thought very clearly, their artillery is not our opponent at all, and if it hits us, it can only be used as a target for us, so they transported all the artillery back, and the shells were not transported back, they must have been buried in the ground." ”

Lin Yuan immediately convened a meeting of the commanders, at which Lin Yuan said: "Now the enemy in front of us is stationed in Kent Mountain, Kent Mountain stretches to the east and west, and the only place that can pass through is its mountain pass, and the Russian army has laid artillery mines in the depth of three kilometers in front of the mountain pass. ”

"The Russian army has also deployed firepower points on the hills on both sides, and these firepower points are on the back of the mountain, and our artillery can't hit them, so we need to use armored troops to cover the attack, but the main position is full of shells and mines, so we need minesweeping tanks to shoot!"

One of the staff officers said: "Can't we clear minefields with artillery?" ”

Lin Yuan said: "The power of artillery is too great, it will blow up the main position to craters, and our tanks are not easy to advance, so we fight like this in this battle, three tanks accompany the support of the mine-sweeping tanks, break the minefield, I led the large army to prepare in the dense forest on the east side of the minefield, and immediately launch a general attack after the minefield is broken, Li Tianyu is responsible for the vigilance outside the dense forest, so as not to let the Russian army get close to the dense forest and sneak attack us." ”
