Chapter 124: Winter
At half past three o'clock in the morning, the lively three-day offensive position outside Tongliao suddenly came to a standstill, and the sound of gunfire and explosions all disappeared. Suddenly, the earth became extremely quiet. The Hai Song troops in various positions looked at each other in the face of this situation, and when someone stood up and tried to investigate, a bullet took away the soldiers emerging from the defense. The snipers of the Republic continue to watch over this silent battlefield. Inform the Hai Song soldiers on the position that the war has not yet ended.
So when the Republican Army stopped attacking and drilled into their own soil holes one by one to make up for sleep, Hai Song's army was still on guard in the position. Waiting in the cold wind, the battle did not begin after an hour, two hours of waiting, began to be a little slack. Arrive at the third hour, at six o'clock in the morning. When the Hai Song army, which was "ready for battle" on the battlefield, began to seem to have soft muscles on their bodies. Suddenly, a terrible shout of "enemy attack" appeared, which woke everyone up, but when they wanted to stand up, they suddenly found that part of their body was a little sore and paralyzed in the cold wind.
This is the advantage of the attacker, and before the battle, the defender must be on duty, no matter how harsh the environment must be guarded, which is extremely exhausting physical strength and energy. However, the attackers can take advantage of the bad weather on the position to wear down the enemy's will.
The sound of cannonballs exploding in the snow caused a burst of heat, and a large amount of snow and ice melted at the lowest temperature of the day, because the snow was white and reflective, although it was early in the morning, it was not visible. A flare rose into the sky, illuminating the entire land.
Taking advantage of the current confused time period of the Hai Song army, the perfect firepower of the republican army and the connection between the infantry infiltrated into the position of the Hai Song army that seemed to have just started and was still waiting to be warmed up. This is the moment when the tactics of infantry contest. At the moment when the firepower within the line of sight of the two sides is coordinated, the aircraft and heavy artillery are huge machines that are difficult to start in the cold winter, and any war machine that cannot be started is a dish.
The republican army that infiltrated the Hai Song position had a large number of hand # grenades, raining down into the front resistance zone, these first sober Hai Song soldiers seemed to have only had time to reflexively release the first shot, and exposed their positions, these shots not only failed to complete the task of killing the enemy, but exposed the position where they and their comrades were located. Pieces of shrapnel blasted by hand # grenades. On this newly awakened defensive position, collide with flesh and blood, and complete the strangulation of life. The position, which had been staffed by gunmen, was quickly emptied. Judging from the sky above the battlefield, if everyone in this position was in the best condition, it could have formed a fire cross, leaving a corpse in front of the position.
However, the human body is not a machine after all, and after three days of intense defense, after waiting for fatigue to surge, it was suddenly hit, and this originally strong position was instantly smashed by the lines inserted by the three-three commando on this position. At this time, the well-trained army of Hai Song behaved like a new soldier at the most critical moment of battle. All kinds of killing techniques, formation coordination was blinded before they had time to play.
Assault, rapid assault of the infantry, if there is a presence blocking the infantry assault, the sled quickly drags the mortar and recoilless guns over, concentrates together and blasts the obstacles ahead. Although there are no armored units and no self-propelled artillery, the combat style is naked and multi-point depth assault style. Mongolian horses, Jiuqu Yellow River horses in the world of various types of high-breed military horses rampant today, with absolute patience to complete the task of war firepower.
The battle was easy and crisp, even exceeding the expectations of the command. As for Tongliao, there was no city wall at all in this era, and several earthen weizi also led to the continuous expansion and demolition of the county seat with the trade of Eastern Mongolia and Northeast China. More than 60 years of firearms have made the threat to the grasslands minimal.
The Republican army quickly broke into the county town and began fierce street fighting. The heavy machine guns of the Haisong army were erected on the high ground to strafe, and bundles of blazing bullets flew out of the flame spiral from the muzzle of the guns within tens of microseconds, completing the outline of the kinetic energy lines in the roadway. The starting point is the muzzle of the gun, and the end point varies from the ground to the ground, to the brick wall, to become mixed fragments, to shatter, and to enter the muscular body, tumbling out with a large number of broken skeletal muscle fibers.
However, such shooting soon stopped the Republican soldiers who were lying on the ground, and they were very experienced in stuffing the grenadiers with ammunition, firing several bursts, and in the dead end of the heavy machine gun firing in the blind spots, the explosives ended the frantic machine gun spray in a curved trajectory.
Explosions, kinetic impacts, the art of killing and destruction that humans have developed for the sake of fighting. Eruptions broke out in this county town. The IRA has a large number of natives, and they are the living map of the army. A large number of areas were cleaned up, compressing the positions of the Hai Song army in street battles. This is not Stalingrad, and the army of Hai Song does not have the will to die in this Shura field. And only the will to defend the country can evolve into the miracle of the Battle of Stalingrad. Moreover, this small city is not enough to become Stalingrad.
Soon the IRA discovered the core of the numerous firepower guards. The headquarters of the 14th Army of the Haisong Dynasty, the war finally forced to the headquarters of a group army in the Haisong Dynasty, and the history of the formation and elimination of the Haisong Army will begin.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the bright red flag was planted on the tallest building in Tongliao City in the north wind. The fall of the city meant the formation of a northeastern base to Tongliao, and further south to Chifeng, Chengde and Beijing.
However, in the past four days, the 14th Army of Hai Song has been completely destroyed, what is Hai Song doing? The Battle of Tongliao was only one point in the entire Great Northeast Campaign. A point where more enemies are destroyed. The republican army originally had two armies going south, following the tactics of the Great Snake, one to attack in Tongliao and the other to attack in Jilin City, so that Beiliang had to face a problem, whether to go left or right, and as a result, the Hai Song army in Changchun could only choose to attack Jilin to the right.
When Hai Song's army attacked east along the road, the mobile force of 60,000 quickly turned to the right. On other lines, Beiliang was also faced with the republican army of the Chifeng generation, which quickly attacked the Haisong army in the area of Haisong and Shenyang, destroying road facilities. And the Republican army on the front line in Beijing also began to fire rockets through the mountains towards the front line of Huludao in Shanhaiguan. There is a big winter to comprehensively solve the posture of Hai Song in the northeast. As long as the Hai Song Department is negligent on the multiple lines, there will be a big battle on that line that exposes flaws.
However, Hai Song's army rushed to Jilin City, but the army of the Republican Army began to retreat, and all the artillery ammunition and military supplies were pulled away by sleds. An empty space was left for the Hai Song army, but it was not over. When Hai Song's army intended to turn back. Encountered various mines.
In the snow of the Northeast, ambush warfare and counter-ambush warfare broke out. Tens of thousands of Imperial troops were cautiously advancing along the road in the snowy fields of the northeast, as battle was about to take place at any moment. Now, for example, a violent explosion shook off the few dead yellow leaves on the branches. The twelve rockets landed exactly where the Imperial Army was, and where the rockets were fired, several soldiers with snow-white bodies quickly ran away after this shot.
The rocket launcher on the sled, which was said to look like a farm implement, stomped directly on the sled. The movement speed of this animal-powered self-propelled cannon is not very fast compared to mechanized troops, but in short, it is faster than a human.
It was this kind of improvised weapon that caused huge casualties to the two group bureaus of Hai and Song, and they had the intention to chase after them, but they could not catch up, and if they dispersed, the troops of the five divisions of the Republican Army were eyeing each other 20 kilometers away, and they gathered together with more than a dozen such self-propelled guns, and they were set on fire at once. A large number of rockets blast on a hectare or two of snow to throw a large number of snowflakes into the air, and the beautiful snowflakes are doped with sharp shrapnel to add a bloody color to the white snow.
As for the Hai Song army that supported Tongliao, there was no chance of reaching the Tongliao battlefield at all, and this group army was organized as one by one on the road, blocked by wooden obstacles, snow pit traps, and treacherous mines. Slowing down, Haisong's army was confronted by an army of hunters and rangers, their guns chrome-plated. Once they choose which part of the Haisong army to attack, they create obstacles in the road. Then when this army stopped, it suddenly launched fire with this highly accurate submachine gun.
The wilderness roads in the northeast could not be the wide highways of later generations, and because the roads were narrow, the Hai Song army could only be forced to queue in columns along the roads. In the event of such a raid, the losses are often huge at first. By the time they reacted, the white-clad troops disappeared into the jungle.
It was this tactic that gave the Hai Song Legion who intended to rescue Tongliao a huge amount of damage. For the first time, the people of this plane learned this kind of guerrilla warfare in the snowfields. However, what did Bei Liang think of from his father's information immediately after learning about what happened to the Hai Song Front Army?
The first generation of patriarchs brought a lot of information from later generations, which made Hai Song take a lot of detours, such as logistics, their sleeping bags were very advanced, and their winter military uniforms were not handsome like German sticks, but were wrapped thick and bloated. However, the tactics had not yet been practiced, and the army was not paying attention to the tactical defense of the industrialization forces in the winter.
As for the tactics, perhaps only the elders of the Hai Song Dynasty encountered it and thought of the situation described in the materials, which was similar to the tactics of breaking the roads relied on by the attackers in winter and the tactics of wooden stacks during the Soviet-Finnish War in the Hai Song materials. Thinking of the consequences of the Soviet army described in the information, a trace of cold sweat broke out on Beiliang's forehead. Haisong's current heavy equipment was not developed for winter. The bulkiness on the snow can only rely on the road to move forward, and now the weakness is revealed.
As a matter of fact, in a land war with the local industrialized forces under harsh natural conditions, the economy of the superpower will not be able to withstand it if it does not make up its mind to launch a general war mode. The decline of the British Empire was a land war with Germany. Before the disintegration of the woolly bear knelt in dry and mountainous Afghanistan, the United States played two large-scale land battles in the Vietnam battlefield and the North Korean # Xian battlefield, and after the egg was broken, it began to use missiles to open the way, bombs to plow the ground, and never send an army if you don't blow up all your resistance on land to only one percent.
So this war is destined to be a strategic mistake of Hai Song, seventy years ago, was crowned with the foreign identity of short-haired, chose to climb science and technology alone, and made a system of naturalization and integration of the locals into them, instead of taking the initiative to put down their bodies and integrate into the land to lead the people on this land, they are destined to lose the mainland for a long time. Seventy years ago, it was destined to be lost, and after the natural awakening of China in this era, Hai Song has lost all opportunities.
