Chapter Seventy-Six: A Soldier Who Doesn't Want to Be a Pioneer Is Not a Good Soldier

Hearing the words vanguard, political commissar Zhao Gang immediately became nervous.

This is no joke.

The so-called leader goose, leader.

The vanguard is the "forerunner" who charges ahead of the team, opens up the situation, clears obstacles, and is the first to provide a signpost for the way forward.

To put it mildly, it is cannon fodder.

Generally, this kind of duty is for the recruits to take on the role, and as for the veterans, they are all rushing to the back.

After all, compared to the recruits who can't even hold a gun on the battlefield, it is obvious that the life of a veteran is a little more expensive.

This is also the default rule in each company.

But when Gu Ming heard this, he was not false at all, he straightened up and answered "yes", and began to talk about his thoughts.

"Regiment commander, political commissar, if you charge directly, although we have firepower to suppress it, we only consume bullets out of thin air, and we can't cause effective kills."

"I think that if you want to take the mountain of devils, the key is distance."

"Distance?" When Zhao Gang heard these two words, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he seemed to think of something, so he nodded: "You continue."

Gu Ming continued: "We only need to use the combat method of digging trenches and approaching to shorten the distance of our army's charge......

Before Gu Ming finished speaking, Li Yunlong snorted and said disdainfully: "You can't be blind as a devil, let's dig thirty meters over, and we will be within the range of other people's grenadiers."

"We can't beat the devils, but the devils can beat us, and when the time comes, the soldiers of our independent regiment will be the target, this group of devils is not simple, eighty percent are trained, the accuracy is good, much better than us."

"This is condescending, and when the grenadiers and grenades are thrown into our trenches, they will be fart."

"Isn't this looking for death?"

"Where is this war, this is digging a grave for yourself!"

As soon as Li Yunlong began to count people, he couldn't stop talking.

Gu Ming barely had the right to intervene, so he could only be scolded passively.

Zhao Gang saw that Gu Ming still had something to say, and this Li Yunlong kept counting, so he glared at Li Yunlong: "You are finished, you just let the family say it, you have to let people finish speaking!"

"Okay, okay." Li Yunlong waved his hand, and finally stopped counting Gu Ming.

But he decided that Gu Ming was not good at operational command, so he clasped his hands and listened to what Gu Ming was going to say next.

Gu Ming was not in a hurry.

Li Yunlong said very correctly, and the method of digging trenches and approaching is definitely a dead end in such an environment.

But as a person from modern times, Gu Ming naturally has different opinions.

The tactic he proposed was actually a tactic used during the period to resist US aggression and aid Korea, because the gap between the equipment of the volunteers and the US army was too large, in order to force the other side to use hand-to-hand combat.

The volunteer army had to brave artillery fire in order to dig trenches forward, at the cost of a large number of lives.

A trench, a trench was spread forward, trying to shorten the distance of the charge.

Until the distance is almost up, shoot a volley of grenades in front of the position, and take advantage of the smoke of the grenades to charge at the opponent.

When the time comes, the large-caliber artillery, tanks, bombers and so on of the US army will not work, and they will only be forced to play a life-swapping style with our army.

But this tactic has a fatal flaw.

Just like Li Yunlong said.

If you get too close to the local position, you will inevitably be hit by enemy grenades and shells.

And in such a situation, there is simply no way to carry out normal civil work.

Even if the power of the little devil's melon grenade and grenadier canister is far less lethal than the US army's egg row fragmentation grenade, it is definitely a fatal act to use this method of fighting in the face of such artillery fire from the other side.

By then, the distance was close, but the warriors who could make the charge were almost dead.

"Regiment

Gu Ming explained: "This gradual method of digging trenches does not work, we can change the way of digging closer, after all, the method is dead, but the human brain is not alive......

Li Yunlong waved his hand impatiently: "You kid, don't sell it, you can rush it tightly, if you have anything to say, just shake it out for us at once, don't fucking occupy the pit and don't shit."

"Yes, Captain!"

Gu Ming agreed, he looked left and right, picked up a branch from the ground, and used the sand as a military dynamic map to start the demonstration.

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang glanced at each other, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

I think that at the beginning, when this kid first joined the independent regiment, he didn't understand anything, but now, he can even draw topographic maps.

And he also draws well, more accurate than the surveyors in the regiment, it seems that Gu Ming, this kid can't underestimate him, this guy really has the demeanor of a fucking general.

But thinking about it like this, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang wanted to see what good things Gu Ming's kid could do, so they no longer urged, but watched Gu Ming write and paint, squatting on the side.

"Lao Li, why don't you organize an attack and play with sand here?"

Kong Jie, the current deputy head of the Independent Regiment, and the former commander of the new regiment came over, Kong Jie did a good job of combat mobilization, thinking that Li Yunlong was about to launch a charge order, but he waited and waited, and he didn't know how long, Kong Jie was in a hurry, but he still didn't see the herald coming.

So Kong Jie came over angrily, but saw such a scene.

The three of them formed a circle, and Gu Ming drew ghost talismans on the ground with tree branches.

Kong Jie was angry, and was about to raise his foot to kick Li Yunlong's ass, but after a glance of his eyes, he saw clearly that this was not a ghost drawing, but a topography map of the devil's position in front.

So I was here to discuss tactics...... Kong Jie thought so in his heart, so he also watched from the sidelines.

It didn't take long for Gu Ming to draw a topographic map, he gestured against the mound, and even dug a miniature trench for demonstration.

In fact, the method is very simple, and it still uses the tactics of the volunteer army to deal with the US army.

At that time, in order to resist the power of the American bombers and tanks, the volunteers dug out the trenches, often only using the anti-slope to face the enemy, giving up their own advantages, choosing to avoid most of the enemy's firepower in this way.

Due to tanks and artillery, this heavy weapon could not go up the mountain, and this method naturally played a good role.

But now on the battlefield of Lijiapo, the Japanese army does not have such things as tanks and artillery, so Gu Ming believes that there is no need to use anticline tactics.

It is only necessary to do the opposite, and when constructing the anti-slope fortifications, all the excavated soil is piled up to the height of the positive slope, so that the high side is higher.

In this way, the height difference between the two sides of the trench can be increased, and if the devils are located at a high position on the top of the mountain, their melon grenades will be blocked by the mound of earth because of this height difference, and they will volley from one side of the trench to the other.

"Captain." Gu Ming put down the branch in his hand, looked at Li Yunlong and said, "What do you think of this method?"

The other three members of the ...... circle were silent for a few seconds.

In the end, Li Yunlong slapped his face: "Wonderful!"

He patted Gu Ming's shoulder vigorously: "Why is your kid's head long, why can't Lao Tzu come up with such a wonderful way."

Zhao Gang picked up the branch and made a stroke in the miniature trench drawn by Gu Ming, and finally Li Yunlong reacted late for a while, and also shouted: "Wonderful."

Only Kong Jie couldn't figure out what was going on, so he pestered Li Yunlong and kept asking: "Old Li Lao Li, tell me, what kind of magic method this is, I came late and didn't understand, you tell me again."

Li Yunlong ignored him and discussed with Gu Ming: "Since we want to dig like this, then we have to dig the trench as narrow as possible!"

Gu Ming saw that Li Yunlong could understand one point, and gave a thumbs up: "The regiment commander has insightful opinion, this trench should be as narrow as possible, and it is best to be as wide as your shoulders."

That's right!" Zhao Gang agreed: "The narrower the trench is dug, the lower the possibility of the enemy's grenades being thrown into the trench, as long as we get under their noses, it will be their bad luck!"

Seeing that the three of them spoke so vigorously and threw themselves aside, Kong Jie felt ostracized by this small group.

But now that the method of combat has been discussed, he simply doesn't want to do so much.

It's a big deal to listen to the command and fight when the time comes, how to fight when the time comes, you can understand at a glance, after all, after so many years on the battlefield, Kong Jie naturally did not fight in vain, he fought from blood and the tip of the knife, and he was done with a task.
