Yokojo Counterattack (3)

"Commander, one of our assault battalions attacked Hengcheng and suffered heavy casualties, there are still enemies in Hengcheng, and it is estimated that there are still a lot of them!" A staff officer reports to the corps commander. "No! We can't wait any longer, mobilize our troops to continue the attack, we have been fighting for almost a day, and we must completely take Hengcheng before the arrival of enemy reinforcements! The commander said. But now Division Commander Liu of the Fifth Artillery Division has rushed in with ten guns and a battalion, and he also reported that other troops should not attack without authorization! The staff officer said. This one... The army commander thought for a while and said, "You send someone to tell him that if we can't take it within three hours, we will attack immediately, and Hengcheng must be taken before dawn today, otherwise all the work done will be wasted!" "Okay!" The staff officer was ordered to go!

"Division Commander Liu, I am the correspondent of the military department, our army commander agreed to suspend the attack on Hengcheng, but if you can't take it within three hours, the troops will attack with all their might, the army commander said, before dawn tomorrow, Hengcheng must be taken all, there is absolutely no discussion!" "You tell the commander to let the troops attack in three hours!" Liu Hai knew that he would not be able to take it for three hours anyway, but it was still certain that three hours would be used to destroy most of the fortifications in the city! "After a while, I blew the trumpet and saw the light of the machine gun wherever it was, like firing a cannon there! Two guns in a group to destroy as many enemy fortifications as possible! Bangs said to the people below. Got it! "The artillerymen immediately began to form groups and opened fire on the American troops who were still shooting! Although the types of artillery of the Fifth Artillery Division are relatively miscellaneous, they are cannons after all, and no matter how strong the fortifications of the US army are, they can't stand it! A cannon was fired, and most of the fortifications at the gate of Hengcheng were knocked off in less than half an hour, and the battalion directly under the artillery regiment of Liu Hai immediately began to charge!

"As soon as the gun goes off, lie down, and leave the rest to the artillery!" Liu Hai's instructions made the commander of the first company remember it very clearly! After rushing in, they were quickly counterattacked by fire, and the attacking troops immediately lay down! "Right there, Lao Tzu saw it!" A gun commander immediately shook the gun and began to aim, and a cannon shot was ejected, and the American fortifications that were bursting into the sky were lifted into the sky! "Well played!" Bangs screamed. "Fire! Fire! "Other artillery crews are also firing one after another, and the fortifications where the American troops are hiding have been torn apart by a cannon, and the American troops inside are also in danger! Later, the U.S. troops didn't dare to shoot, and Liu Hai took the opportunity to order the battalion directly under him to attack! In fact, this trick is the tactic of the little devil after the artillery shoots the infantry and the infantry rushes after the artillery bombardment! The reason why I dare to use it here is because Hengcheng has no heavy weapons now, because it is night, and there is no air support, so I dare to do this, if it is not during the day!

"What?" Major Voss never expected that the other party would push the cannon into the city to carry out a cannon roll call on his own fortifications, he had never seen such a method of warfare before! "Gather your troops and prepare for the attack, take out their artillery!" Major Voss ordered. "We have less than a thousand people now!" The adjutant said. "At the beginning, the Japanese only had 1,000 men in Vallata, but we fought for a week and suffered thousands of casualties, are we not as good as those little Japan?" Voss said. "Okay, I'll gather five hundred men to attack!" The adjutant agreed. The adjutant looked at the map, and now those CCPs are in the north, and the main fortifications in the north have almost been lost, but there are still some fortifications on both sides, which can cover their own attacks. After thinking about it, the adjutant divided the five hundred men into two teams and launched a counterattack from the left and right!

At this time, Bangs has already discovered that something is wrong, the other party is no longer shooting casually, this black can't see anything, if it goes on like this, you won't be able to take it down until dawn! But Liu Hai suddenly remembered that the enemy no longer shoots casually, not to plan to give himself a blow, and now there are still many people in Hengcheng who don't know, in case the other party counterattacks, his own battalion will not be able to stop, especially at night, in case the enemy casts a flare, then it will be seen clearly! "Tell the troops, all retreat, especially the artillery, retreat five hundred meters, and then prepare!" Bangs said. "We fought well, why did we withdraw?" The first company commander said. "Hurry up!" Liu Hai yelled, he didn't have time to explain, if he was one step later, he was afraid that he would be beaten! The first company commander looked at the bangs and went to convey the order without saying anything! A battalion and artillery were quickly withdrawn! As soon as he withdrew, a light came out, illuminating the area just now! Then there was a crackling* and falling to the ground! The sound of "GOGOGO" came from both sides, and a large group of American GIs with * in their hands rushed out!

"Oh Mom, it's too hanging!" The company commander looked at the area in front of him, and he was afraid for a while, and turned to look at the bangs, which looked a little incredible! "Master Liu, do you know how to tell fortunes?" A company commander ran over and asked. "Yes!" Bangs said: "Tell the artillery to concentrate fire and fire!" Right away! "Yes!" The commander of the second company immediately passed the order, and the ten cannons put the ruler to zero, and then began to shoot, one by one the shells hit the American troops who had just rushed up but did not find the other party, the shells continued to explode, coupled with the afterglow of the flares, the artillery hit very accurately, the American soldiers were dizzy, and they were embarrassed to shoot everywhere, and finally had to retreat! But at this time, in order to cover the retreat of the American troops, the fortifications on both sides began to shoot cover, so that the fire points and fortifications that were not found just now were exposed! Liu Hai felt that his retreat of these 500 meters was simply a stroke of genius, and now it is easy to say, as long as he kills those few side fire points, he can continue to advance!

"Fire!" Several artillery crews began to fire at the fortifications that had just been exposed, and one shell after another shot out, knocking out all those firing points! "Great, keep attacking!" Liu Hai was very proud at this time, beckoning people to push the cannon and with the cooperation of the directly subordinate battalion, he attacked forward one cannon after another! After the attack failed, Major Voss knew that he had lost, and if it continued like this, no matter how many fortifications he had, he would have to be killed by all the people, but Major Voss, who was unwilling to fail, decided to hold on until the last moment, he believed that as long as he held out until the morning, a large number of reinforcements and air support would come to support him, and he didn't know who would die at that time! It's a pity that God doesn't want to give him another chance, and after Liu Hai attacked desperately for more than two hours, the commander of the 68th Army couldn't sit still anymore!

"Major Voss, the Chinese army is attacking again, this time it is an attack from all sides, we are now surrounded, the enemy's attack is pressing on all sides, we have a total of two hundred people left plus the wounded, we have lost!" The adjutant was already wounded by two gunshot wounds and was standing there shaking! "You're right, we've already lost, tell the soldiers to surrender, the Chinese army is still very good to prisoners of war, at least it won't kill us!" "Okay!" The adjutant panicked and walked out! Half an hour later, Voss surrendered to the Volunteers with his men! But Voss, who was not reconciled to lose, insisted on meeting the commander of the Volunteer Army who had pushed the cannon into the city! The surrendered officer had no choice but to call the bangs who were tired of sleeping on the gun!

"What do you want to ask?" Bangs looked at the big-nosed officer in front of him! "I just want to know how you came up with a way to push the cannon into the city and attack the fortifications directly?" Voss asked. "The earliest user of this method was Napoleon, and then it was me, in the war against the Japanese invaders, I used this tactic countless times, and the concrete permanent fortifications of the Japanese were destroyed countless by me, and you can't do this fortification in Hengcheng at all, but as an officer, you have done your best to hold your position, waiting for your reinforcements, according to the logic of you Americans, it is not a shame for you to surrender now!" Bangs said. "You are an excellent artilleryman, you can use artillery to the fullest, I am convinced!" Major Voss said. "Thank you for your affirmation, it's okay I'm going to sleep, I didn't sleep all day yesterday, I'm sleepy!" Bangs yawned, "Oh yes! Your insistence is actually meaningless, one of our divisions has already blocked your reinforcements! ”

Ignoring this American military officer anymore, Liu Hai planned to rest for a while, but was soon woken up! After Liu Hai was woken up, he learned that in the battle of the Hengcheng counterattack, the volunteers surrounded a British army, in fact, the purpose of the Hengcheng counterattack was not to eliminate how many enemies, but to strike at the offensive momentum of the other party, to transfer the volunteers to the 38th parallel and buy time for the next batch of troops to enter the DPRK, the meaning of the volunteer army headquarters is to destroy if you can fight, and scare away if you can't fight, but this British army is different! Because this British army unit is the British army unit that participated in the burning of the Old Summer Palace back then! After Mr. Peng learned of the situation, he immediately ordered Deputy Commander Han Xianchu to mobilize all the troops of the 46th Army in the reserve, cooperate with the 5th Artillery Division, and destroy it at any cost. Just before the order was issued, Commander-in-Chief Peng Dehuai issued another order: "For the British Fifth Infantry Division, resolutely destroy and not allow surrender!" ”

"Master Liu, this mission... The commander of the 46th Army was about to talk to Liu Hai about the task, Liu Hai waved his hand, "Commander, don't say anything, the Fifth Infantry Division of the British Army, I guarantee that none of them will be able to escape, and they will have to pay it back when they come out, this time is when they pay off the debt!" Bangs said through gritted teeth.
