Bloodstained Matsuyama (2)
After making arrangements, Liu Hai and several division commanders decided to carry out a feint and surprise attack, with two divisions attacking frontally, and the remaining one attacking along the river bank from the flank, with frontal artillery cooperating, attacking together on three sides. In this attack, Liu Hai did not plan to capture Songshan, but just wanted to see the Japanese army's firepower and deployment so as to further formulate an effective attack! Bangs watched the attack with a gunshot. The troops in front shouted and attacked forward. Liu Haihai explained before that the shouting should be loud and the artillery fire should be sufficient, but the attack should be cautious, and the battalion should be taken step by step instead of rushing forward. Although the thunder of the attacking troops was loud, the rain was small, and under the guidance of the lead company, the troops slowly moved forward. However, Liu Hai found that the firepower of the Japanese army was very sparse, only about a dozen firepower points, although these firepower points were very solid, but the firepower blind angle was very large, and the interspersed gaps between the firepower points and the firepower points were very obvious, and the attacking battalion commanders quickly discovered these gaps, and ordered a part of the troops to attract the firepower points and lead people to attack from these gaps.
"This Songshan is really in vain, this firepower arrangement is simply full of loopholes, as long as it is interspersed through these gaps, they can open their position deployment!" A division commander said happily when he saw that the attack was unexpectedly smooth. "It's too easy, aren't we making too much of a fuss!" Another division commander also said. Liu Hai saw that the Japanese army's arrangement was broken, and there were already many troops rushing in, and at this speed, it would only take a few hours to capture Songshan. Liu Hai adjusted the gun scope a little bigger, and suddenly found that a Japanese army appeared between the Japanese fire points, and this Japanese army had extremely strong firepower, and attacked the attacking national army like crazy. The troops who were attacking did not expect that these firepower points would suddenly counterattack, and they were caught off guard, and more importantly, after the Japanese counterattacked, all the firepower points were trained into a line, and the entire attacking force was cut into two sections, and the Japanese artillery fire also began to bombard, and a large amount of firepower came out of those places that did not look like people at all, and about a regiment of troops of the attacking force was intercepted by the Japanese within the defensive line. "Fuck me!" Several division commanders, who were still very optimistic just now, were stunned by this sudden change. "Choose the assault team, start the attack immediately, be sure to rescue the encircled troops, and cover the artillery fire!" Bangs hurriedly ordered. Several guns were pushed over and fired accurately at the Japanese fire blocking line. "Rush, rush!" The regiment commander who attacked the troops was also anxious, and personally led people to attack the Japanese army! However, at this time, the changes resumed, and in those places where there seemed to be nothing, many holes were opened at a hula, and many barrels of guns stretched out from them, under the stones, among the grass, countless barrels of guns stretched out, and the unprepared attacking troops were taken by surprise, not only were the besieged troops not rescued, but the attacking troops also fell into a fire trap!
"Withdraw! Withdraw it! "Liu Hai can't care about anything else at this time, and it is likely that there will be more casualties if it goes on like this!" What to withdraw to? What about those brothers who are trapped? A division commander shouted. I can't care so much, more people die than save in this way! Bangs said. At this time, the national army in front once again launched a charge, and countless national troops were killed and wounded under the fire of the Japanese army. "Retreat, it's too late!" Bangs yelled. "Fuck out!" The division commander watched his soldiers being knocked down incessantly, and his heart was distressed to death. "Withdraw! Withdraw it! Several division commanders hurriedly shouted. The troops quickly withdrew, with more than 900 casualties, and the besieged troops desperately broke through, and in the end only came back less than 100 people! "A tentative attack has killed and wounded so many brothers, and if you rush hard, you don't know how many you will die! What can I do? A division commander looked at the troops with heavy casualties and screamed in distress. Liu Hai was also very sad, and he also underestimated the defense of the Japanese army a little, but he didn't expect these little devils to be so cunning! "Arrange defensive positions, fire artillery, and prevent the opponent from counterattacking!" Bangs said: "Call one of the brothers who broke through and ran out!" Preferably Whampoa's! "After a while, a company commander was called, and the company commander was already wounded." Let me ask you, after you rushed in, did you find the fortifications of the devils, and what are the characteristics! "Bang Hai urgently needs to understand the characteristics of the devil's defense and fortifications." Division, the Japanese fortifications are very dense, and well covered, I rushed past several bunkers, did not find, and when we were about to withdraw, suddenly attacked, all my brothers in a platoon were killed by these bunkers, their fire support points are connected by trenches, can attack and mobilize at any time, just now when we charged, we found these trenches, the Japanese used these trenches to detour back behind us. In addition, when we were surrounded, we had already rushed to the enemy's main position. On the main position of the Japanese army, there are clear bunkers and sub-forts, and there are * and various traps in front of the position, we tried to rush it, but before we moved, we were pressed in front of the bunker, and we couldn't move at all! ”
Listening to the company commander's account, Liu Hai already had a rough idea of the characteristics of the devil's positional defense: first arrange more than a dozen firepower points in front of the main position, expose obvious flaws, and attract the national army to attack, and then send people to use trenches and tunnels to detour behind the attacking troops, and connect with the firepower points to form a defensive line to cut off and encircle the back road of the deep troops. Even if the attacking troops break through this line of defense, the besieged troops have been almost killed, at this time the attacking troops broke through, but they only killed in front of the main position, and the main position was connected with the bright and dark forts, and it was not so easy to break through! In other words, if you want to capture Matsuyama, you must first break through the outer defense line of the Japanese army, that is, the dozen or so solid forward firepower points. "When you attacked just now, did you mark the enemy's exposed firepower points?" Bangs asked the ghost cannon. "Yes! I've made detailed annotations on the small diagram, and now I can pull them out with heavy artillery at any time! Ghost Cannon said confidently. Okay, now you go and pull out these targets by name, after the uprooting, I will concentrate all the heavy machine guns to blockade a lot with dense fire, cover the assault troops to completely destroy their forward defenses, so that we can really attack the main position of Matsuyama! Bangs said. Yes! I'm going to pull them out myself, and I'm sure I'll kill them all in half an hour! "The ghost cannon is leaving." Wait a minute, after the destruction, you have to arrange people to keep an uninterrupted observation of the enemy, and once a Japanese army comes out, immediately concentrate artillery fire to destroy them, and you can't let them restore these fortifications! Bangs instructed again. I see! ”
The ghost cannon did not disappoint Liu Hai, according to the marked target, the ghost cannon spent twenty minutes to intensively destroy all the exposed firepower points, and more than a dozen firepower points in front of the Japanese army were all destroyed by powerful artillery fire! "Send someone to watch me, once there is movement, whether it is a person or a rabbit, it is an ant moving, and give me a damn blow!" After the ghost cannon was finished, he said to his own people. Liu Hai called several division commanders and asked them to concentrate all the heavy machine guns of the three divisions and carry out intensive strafing on a two-hundred-meter-wide section to cover the attack of the troops. Hundreds of heavy machine guns began to strafe the Japanese position, the artillery of the ghost artillery also began a blockade bombardment, an engineering battalion under a strong cover, attacked, with * to the Japanese trenches, pillboxes carried out a devastating blast, although the Japanese army desperately counterattacked, but helpless artillery was crushed by the ghost artillery, in the face of hundreds of machine guns, how many people went out is also a dead end, the Japanese army can only watch their forward positions are completely destroyed!
"Great, Liu Shizuo, now we can directly attack their main position, without the bunkers in front, there is no threat to the flanks and rear of our attacking troops, and we can have a good fight!" A division commander said happily. "Nope! This is not enough, the fortifications of Songshan are stronger than I thought, if we attack only with our artillery fire and troops, the losses will be very large, a feint attack will kill and wound more than a thousand people, this battle cannot be fought like this! Liu Hai looked at the main position of the Japanese army and said. Then how can you fight, the tanks are all following the troops to the south, what else can you use without people? The division commander said. The bunker is dead, the key is the Japanese dark fire point and the Japanese sniper ambushed in the vegetation with it, this gang of people is a great threat to the commander, so to kill this guy, as long as we can kill the enemy's dark fire point and sniper, we can take the battalion step by step, use the method of cannon roll call one by one, and gradually advance until we occupy Songshan! Bangs said what he thought. But the location of these dark fire teams and snipers can't be determined, so there's no way to fight! The division commander said. I've already thought of a way, doesn't the U.S. military have high-pressure water cannons? We use it to spray out the gasoline, and then use * to match, burn it for one night, strip it of its hair, and the meat will be cut! Bangs said. Hahaha! Why didn't I expect that, Master Liu, you are really a genius, leave this matter to me! The division commander said happily. At night, dozens of high-pressure water cannons sprinkled dozens of barrels of gasoline on Songshan, and after the explosion of one, the main position of the Japanese army in Songshan was burned, and the gasoline and vegetation made the fire bigger and bigger, and a torch that illuminated the Nu River was missing a whole night!
After the fire, Songshan was like a pig that had been stripped naked, all kinds of fortifications and trenches built by the Japanese army on the hillside were exposed, and the excited ghost cannon said that he could destroy all the fortifications of the Japanese army within an hour, and Liu Hai was also very satisfied with his own method, according to the Japanese pillbox defense line, and formulated an attack plan!
