The Great Bombing (3)
"Judging from the report, we have basically achieved our goal, their logistics and transportation have been basically cut off, and without the support of artillery, it is impossible for their infantry to block our three-dimensional attack!" Cowan said excitedly after reading the telegram. "Mr. Division... As soon as the staff officer next to him wanted to say something, Cowen's order shouted out: "Concentrate two infantry regiments, one tank battalion as support, and another two artillery regiments for fire support, target, position six!" "Yes!" The staff officers looked at Cowen's spirited appearance, looked at each other, and replied. "Do you have any other suggestions?" Cowan said as he looked at his staff officer. "Nope!" The staff officers said.
"Will this be able to break through the positions of the Chinese?" One staff officer asks another. "I don't think necessarily, don't forget, the Chinese's blocking position is not so easy to break through, during the second battle, the strength of one of our divisions plus all kinds of fire support did not break through the position of a battalion of the Chinese, now with two regiments to attack such an important position, I am afraid it is unlikely!" Another staff officer said. "Master Cowen hasn't been here for a long time, and he doesn't know much about our opponents, so maybe he will understand a little after suffering a little loss!" The staff officer said.
"Attack!" Ordered to launch an attack, the commander of the American regiment ordered the attack, and the shells of the bad sky rained down on the No. 6 position. "Fuck, here we go again!" A company commander on Position 6 shook the dirt off his body and looked out of the lookout hole. American tanks and a large number of infantry under the position were firing and charging upwards. "The American devil is endless, and we are not finished with him! Get on the ground and fuck the shit! The company commander picked up his gun and rushed out, and the soldiers behind also rushed out with their company commander.
"Report, division commander, the Americans have dispatched two regiments of troops to attack our position No. 6!" The correspondent ran in to report. "I heard it, if you don't fight at this time, you will have a ghost!" Bangs said angrily. "What now?" The staff officer next to him asked. "Tell Liu Xiaoshan to let all his brigades go up, and make sure that the No. 6 position does not fall into the hands of the enemy!" Bangs waved his hand and said. "Yes!" The staff officer agreed, went out to deliver the order! "Division commander, the enemy has launched an attack not only in the No. 6 position, but also in other directions, but judging by the intensity of the attack in other directions, he doesn't want us to draw reinforcements from other directions!" Another staff officer said. "Ignore them, the high-speed troops hold their positions, retreat without an order, and be punished as deserters!" Bangs said, putting his eyes on the map.
"Commander, now that the Americans have cut off the logistics supply on Liuhai's side, Liuhai is now in short supply of shells, and the Americans have concentrated a large number of military and firepower to rush him, should we give him some reinforcements?" The chief of staff asked the corps commander. "We are not rich in manpower now, there will be no deaths on the entire front, our troops will suffer a lot of casualties, and we will have limited support!" The commander said. "His logistical supply line is mainly caused by the enemy's concentrated bombardment, which seems to be a bit aimed at the sixth position!" said the chief of staff. "I don't have anything to support him now, I can't send him those two anti-aircraft guns from our headquarters!" The commander said. "The safety of the command... said the chief of staff. "It's okay, our two guns don't need it anyway, the key is that the enemy can't find it, if people really know that our command is here, I'm afraid that an anti-aircraft artillery regiment will be in vain, don't study it, send the cannon to him, as well as shells and gunners!" The commander said.
"How's it going up on the position?" Liu Xiaoshan asked while eating fried noodles. "The sixth attack was repulsed, but the casualties were more than half, and soon we had to go on top!" The second regiment commander said. "When the fuck is this a head, there is no artillery cover, this battle is not easy to fight, pay attention to the anti-artillery, disperse the arrangement, and don't have too many casualties!" Liu Xiaoshan looked at the explosion of the position into a sea of fire and said, "But no matter what, you can't give up the position, and you have to die for Lao Tzu to die on it!" "Brigade commander, don't worry, we can fight with artillery, and we won't be cowardly without artillery!" The second regiment commander looked at the soldiers behind him and said. "There's a kind!" Liu Xiaoshan nodded and said.
"Commander Cowen, we've attacked six times, and we've lost almost five hundred casualties!" A staff officer said to Division Commander Cowen. "It doesn't matter, the offensive has to continue, without the support of artillery, I don't believe how long they will be able to hold out!" Cowan said. "Sir, you have not been here for a long time, you don't know much about the Chinese, their will to fight is better than any of our enemies, including the Japanese back then, they can persist in fighting without any supplies, their will to fight is not something we can understand!" The staff officer said with some excitement: "If this were not the case, we would not have fought here from the Yalu River!" "Their will to fight may be strong, but we must also have the determination to fight and continue to attack!" Division Commander Cowen said, "Inform the Air Force that the bombardment must be intensified, and not a single shell must be sent to which Chinese artillery!" "Yes!" The staff officer looked at Cowan, and finally nodded and said.
"What can I do about this, the bombing of the Americans has intensified again!" The captain of the repair team, seeing that the roadbed he had finally paved was blown off, snorted angrily! "This can't be done!" The stationmaster of the station was also very anxious, but he did see it, the captain of the repair team really tried his best to do it, but every time he was beaten back after doing half of it, or he was blown up after finally laying the foundation! "So what do you say? Those shells have been transported more than 400 kilometers from the Yalu River to here, and they have been stuck for more than ten miles to me. The repair captain slapped his pickaxe and said. So, don't we have a few hundred logs? Put all those logs on the road, and it will take less than twenty minutes to fill them up, and the car will pass! The stationmaster said. Okay, let's try, I really don't have a trick, as long as you can get the car to pass, you can put me on the pad! The repair captain said.
The captain of the repair team called all the people over, rolled all the logs out of the storeroom, and paved them on the road as fast as he could. The stationmaster's method is very good, the length of the log is enough, it can be erected directly on the crater, and the other potholes are all erected, although it doesn't look easy to walk, but it is finally passed. In order to be foolproof, the captain of the repair team called his soldiers to stick every log on the stone, and tried to stand it as smoothly as possible, and after half an hour of hard work, all the sections of the road that were blown up were paved! "Get out of the car right away!" The station master immediately ordered the train to leave. The convoy had already loaded the shells and waited, the station master gave an order, and fifty cars immediately rushed out, driving as smoothly as possible on the bumpy logs, and it still took a little time for the fifty cars to pass, and the station manager looked nervously at the sky, for fear that there would be enemy planes attacking at this time, but fortunately, at night, the American planes were not as frequent as during the day, and the fifty cars drove over without danger.
"Commander, the cannonballs are coming!" A cannon man cried out like a ghost. "Really?" The ghost cannon jumped to his feet and ran out to see the convoy that had just arrived. "Great, organize people to unload the shells by hand, quickly! There are shells, finally there are shells! Hurry up and unload, hurry up and unload! The ghost cannon shouted excitedly. Why is it so little, less than 500 rounds? The ghost cannon asked in surprise after unloading it. That's good! The Americans are going crazy, they are bombing endlessly in a day, and it would be nice to be able to transport so many! Said the captain of the car team. Yes, although I can't see it, I can hear it, and it's really not light! The ghost cannon looked at the hundreds of shells helplessly and said.
"Is there any mistake? What is enough for such a few shells? Wu Fatzi said dissatisfiedly. Captain Wu, there is no way! It's not easy to transport so much, so save some of it! Said the captain of the car team. Is this a provincial matter? If I miss one shot, chances are we'll lose a few lives! Wu Fatzi said dissatisfiedly. Captain Wu, that road is about to blow up, you can use it first, and we will definitely send it to you when we have the opportunity! Said the captain of the car team. Hurry up, it's better to have a bayonet without a cannonball! Wu Fatzi said.
"Report!" The correspondent ran in and said, "Division commander, the logistics have sent a batch of shells, and now the two regiment commanders report that the shelling can be carried out!" "Sent it?" When Liu Hai heard this, he was quite surprised: "Great, tell them, don't keep it, and hit me with all the remaining shells and the ones sent this time at a kilometer in front of the No. 6 position, and I will hurt the Americans at one time!" "Yes!"
"Fire!" After receiving the shells, the two regiments immediately followed Liu Hai's order and fired all the nearly 1,000 shells of the two artillery regiments at a distance of 1,500 meters. At this time, the American army once again concentrated tanks and artillery, and a regiment of troops was ready to attack again. After several attacks, the U.S. army found that the other side really had no shells, so they became more and more bold, and Cowan also felt that the defense capability of the volunteers had reached the limit, so this time it was decided to launch a general attack and take the No. 6 position in one fell swoop. "This time those Chinese must no longer be able to withstand it, tell the troops to attack, victory belongs to the great United States!" Cowan said confidently.
