Layers of Resistance (1)
"That's it! After drinking enough wine and eating enough meat, it's time for us to settle accounts with the little devils! "The veteran of the ghost artillery is doing pre-war mobilization" This time our task is very simple, that is, to cooperate with the troops of the national army, the war zone orders us to go there, we will fight wherever we are, there is a brigade commander with us, eat the meat of the devil, and the blood of the devil, win the battle, eat wine and meat, kill the devil and make a double ring! "There are only two things in the head of the ghost cannon that can stimulate the spirit of war, the first is wine and meat, and the second is double ringing!" The head of the ghost regiment is right, we fight devils to protect the family and defend the country, to fight for us Chinese, and to be rewarded for our own meritorious service. "Liu Xiaoshan is also cheering up his soldiers!" All right! No matter how much you say, it's useless, just two words, steady, accurate! Hit all our shells on the heads of the devils, so that they have no return, my dignified China is not without a knife and a blade! Let's go! With a wave of his hand, the officers and soldiers of the artillery brigade boarded the car, dragged the cannon, and rushed to Changsha!
"Brigade Commander Liu, our plan is like this, this time the Japanese army will still attack along the new wall to the south, and Commander Xue in the theater requires us to block layer by layer, and then continue to retreat, attract the enemy to the foot of Changsha, and then surround it by reinforcements from the peripheral troops, and annihilate it in one fell swoop. Therefore, for the use of your artillery, our opinion is to divide it into five parts and arrange them on our five lines of defense, cooperate with the troops to block the attack layer by layer, and finally concentrate on the Yuelu Mountain in Changsha to participate in the suppression! "The director of operations in the theater is making campaign arrangements for Liu Hai." Our artillery is the elite artillery of the party-state, once the operation is dispersed, the first can not show its power, the second is easy to cause battle damage, the air defense force of each department is weak, the air superiority of the Japanese army cannot be ignored, if we concentrate on the operation, not only can we show our might, but also can cover each other's operations, and the combat coordination is also easier, the blocking part of this operation is to put it bluntly, it is a movement war, our degree of mechanization is high, and we can keep up with the pace of the campaign, so I ask to lead the team to carry out concentrated operations, so that we can block as many attacks as possible, Delay and kill the Japanese army! "Liu Hai does not agree with the dispersal of the troops." I will forward your opinion to Chief Xue, as long as he agrees, there is no problem! The chief of operations said.
"Although I haven't met Liu Hai, this person is very good, and the various exhibition areas have a high opinion of him, so let's do what he wants, but tell him that you can't destroy the concept of the campaign!" Xue Yue said directly. "Okay!" After speaking, the director of operations put down the phone. "Chief Xue agrees with your idea, but you can't destroy the battle concept!" The director of operations conveyed Xue Yue's meaning! "Okay! I'm not going to spoil it! After Liu Hai finished speaking, he walked out of the army headquarters. As soon as he went out, he met Li Yutang, the commander of the Tenth Army. "Hello Sir Li!" Bangs saluted. "Liu Shencano, hehe!" Li Yutang said with a smile: "This is our second time cooperating!" "Yes, Chief Li, we will definitely do our best to cooperate with Chief Li!" Bangs said. "Hmmm! Good! This time we have to face the elite troops of the entire Japanese Eleventh Army, our strength is limited, it is said that it is a layer of resistance, but it is very difficult to say that the specific fight is very difficult, Changsha is the bottom of our pocket, I will personally lead the Tenth Army to defend Changsha, you have to pay attention to the fact that before the Japanese army arrives in Changsha, we cannot lose troops and weapons, because Changsha is the place where we are desperate! Li Yutang said. I'll be careful, please rest assured, Chief Li! Liu Hai said, "But there is a request, that is, please send an engineer battalion to cooperate with us in the battle, this time the operation is very mobile, we need the engineer battalion to pave the way and build bridges for us, to ensure that the mobility of our artillery brigade will not be too limited by geography!" "Good!" Li Yutang agreed without hesitation!
"The most important thing for us in this operation is mobility, the artillery should not be too far away from the car, and we must be ready to evacuate at any time! Don't unload the shells either, just reload! Liu Hai said to his two regiment commanders, Ghost Cannon and Wu Fatzi. We understand this, fight and withdraw quickly! "This is not a difficult thing for the two veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time, the ghost artillery has chosen a place, it is very close to the road, and it is also suitable for artillery, Wu Fatzi has thought about the order and method of retreating, after the whole brigade is deployed, Liu Xiaoshan's battalion is responsible for the lookout and escort work in front, not an hour, Liu Hai's whole brigade is ready, Liu Hai looked at the skilled tactical movements of his subordinates, and his heart was very happy, if in time, his artillery brigade will definitely be able to become a real elite artillery!" Report! The devils are attacking! The posture of the guards being beaten is probably only half a day's work! Liu Xiaoshan reported to Liu Hai over the phone. What is the stance of being beaten? "There's something strange about the bangs." That is true! This time in the Battle of Changsha, in order to achieve a gradual blockade and avoid the enemy's sharp echelon interception plan, the front troops were all miscellaneous, and the rear was all the Central Army, intending to use the miscellaneous army to meet the edge of the Japanese army, and when the enemy was tired, the Central Army would block it! Mu Zhennan, who has been promoted to brigade staff officer, said.
"Why do you have to do this every time, it's always inevitable that there will be factions!" Bangs is speechless about this kind of thing. "That's it now, how can you keep going on like this!" Mu Zhennan shook his head and said. "At this time, I can't take care of this for now, order the artillery to start attacking, when the Japanese army launches an attack, it is attrition to carry out an artillery counterattack, and when it is most advantageous to strike at the enemy, the whole brigade will open artillery to suppress!" Bang Hai gave the order to open fire. The artillery shells smashed on the heads of the Japanese troops, which surprised the brigade commanders who were watching the battle, because according to intelligence, the artillery divisions of the defending army were scattered and prepared to block the attack in echelons and batches, but such a fierce artillery fire was by no means a small-scale artillery fire. "Yaga! Suppress the artillery fire with all your might, call in the air force for support! The brigade commander watched his soldiers being blown down in batches, and regretted why he had ordered a dense attack array! This incident is a coincidence, the Japanese spies have indeed obtained the use plan of the national army's artillery, that is, to disperse the use and place them on various defense lines in batches, but at the suggestion of Liu Hai, the theater changed the way of using artillery, so that the attacking Japanese army suffered a loss. "Good fight! The little devil reimbursed at least two squadrons, damn it, people are meeting head to head, isn't this uncomfortable? Liu Xiaoshan said to Liu Hai on the phone. What about the defenders? "The reason why Liu Hai asked this is to control the timing of the retreat, these miscellaneous troops will collapse in less than half an hour if they say no, if they don't evacuate early, the artillery will suffer!" The defenders are in good shape, look like this can hold up a little longer! Liu Xiaoshan said. That's good, if you can hold it up for a while, you can consume an extra part of the Japanese army's strength.
"Brigade commander, the little devil has changed his way, the two flanks are assaulting, and the center is feint!" Liu Xiaoshan said. "Wu Fatzi's ruler moved three hundred and fifty meters to the left, and the ghost cannon moved four hundred meters to the right, and began to attack!" Liu Hai changed the target of the attack in time, but the dispersion of artillery fire and the change of the Japanese offensive formation, the attack effect was not as good as before, but it is gratifying that the defenders were a ragtag army, but they fought very tenaciously, and there was no sign of retreat, the Japanese air force support arrived, because the ground did not specifically report the geographical coordinates of the other party, so the Japanese bombarded the defenders' positions while looking for the artillery positions of the national army, but they never expected that Liu Hai's artillery brigade was equipped with anti-aircraft guns, and the anti-aircraft guns were covered on both wings. The Japanese bombers were threatened, and in the end, at the cost of a gun and a few gunners, Liu Hai shot down a Japanese plane, and the other Japanese planes flew away immediately! "Transfer now!" After Liu Hai heard Liu Xiaoshan's report that the defenders had already suffered more than half of the casualties, and suggested that they should evacuate, he thought that these miscellaneous troops really couldn't do it, and they would lose more than half of them in one attack, "Withdraw!" Liu Hai gave an order, all the cannons were hooked, and they began to evacuate on the road. Soon it turned out that Liu Hai still grasped the timing very accurately, and when the artillery brigade had just withdrawn, more than a dozen bombers flew in and bombarded the artillery positions indiscriminately! However, what shocked Liu Hai was that the guards did not withdraw, but held on to the last person, the regiment commander was killed, the supervisor was seriously injured, and the only survivor was an old cook in his sixties!
"These ragtag armies are tough enough, and they are in the end!" Liu Xiaoshan looked in the direction of the Xinqiang River and said. "It's not easy, those miscellaneous soldiers have been fighting with devils all day with Hanyang to make hard, they are all masters!" Mu Zhennan also said. "Tell the troops, don't stop at the second line of defense, go directly to the third line of defense!" Bangs said. "Why? Isn't it a layer of resistance? Ghost Cannon asked. If we are not on the second line of defense at this time, we will be able to avoid the blows of the Japanese army, and the place chosen for the second line of defense is not good, and it is a miscellaneous army stationed, it is simply easy to attack and difficult to defend, and after the Japanese army successfully won the second line of defense, it was not hit by too much firepower, so that their tails would be cocked, and we would wait for them in the third line of defense, and when the time came, we would take the lead and beat them hard! After Liu Hai finished speaking, Wu Fat Man applauded loudly.
"Ghost artillery, contact the commander here, the terrain here is good, we can give full play to it, tell the engineer battalion to destroy all the paths on the left and right sides of the front of the position, and completely, cut down all the numbers on both sides of the road in front of the position, and bury all the * and * on both sides of the road, we have to fight a good battle here!" Liu Hai went to the third line of defense, and found that the terrain here is very conducive to defense, as long as the roads on both sides are destroyed, the Japanese can only attack from the middle, * Although spacious, but the offensive area is narrow, at most it can accommodate a large group of attacks, which can force the Japanese to use refueling tactics to eliminate the Japanese one by one!
