Chapter 940: Street Fighting (2)
The Spaniard's actions were very unexpected to Yang Feng, he really didn't expect Field to have such courage, and withdraw all the troops into the city to play hide and seek with him.
"Huh...... I didn't expect this Field to be really stubborn, and he was unwilling to surrender even after the battle was fought to this point, is this making a final resistance? ”
A sneer appeared at the corner of Yang Feng's mouth, "If this is a modern society, buddy will withdraw his troops immediately without saying a word." It's just a pity that this is not Stalingrad, and we are not German either. ”
Yang Feng knew very well that the street fighting of modern warfare was very cruel, taking World War II as an example, the German army, which had been singing all the way into a no-man's land, encountered hard stubble in Stalingrad.
Hitler mobilized two million elite German troops to attack Stalingrad, originally the mustache arrogantly thought that it would only take a month at most to end the Battle of Stalingrad, but the facts gave him a slap in the face, and in the end the battle was fought for half a year, and finally ended with the German army losing 1.5 million and the Soviet army losing 2 million.
Although, on the surface, the losses of the Soviet troops were higher than those of the Germans, strategically, the Germans were defeated.
First, Hitler's strategic objectives were thwarted, and secondly, the Germans lost their most elite ground forces and a large number of weapons and heavy artillery in this battle. The Soviets, on the other hand, were given half a year of valuable time to receive large amounts of aid from the Western world and train more troops, creating opportunities for future strategic counteroffensives.
It was also after this battle that street fighting was finally valued by military strategists all over the world.
After the end of World War II, the cruelty of street fighting became more and more known to the world, whether it was the fall of the Black Hawk in Somalia or the street fighting in Grozny in Chechnya.
It stands to reason that Yang Feng, who grew up in a modern society, should be very aware of this, but he is not worried about the upcoming street fight.
The reason is very simple, because the current level of military weapons reform and development in the world has not yet reached the level of World War II in the later generations, and for now, the world's military development is still in the stage of semi-cold and semi-hot weapons, and such weapons and equipment cannot give full play to the advantages of street warfare.
Last but not least, the prerequisite for street fighting is that there must be enough space.
Grozny, Somalia and even Stalingrad are all big cities, and Fort San Petro is just a small castle with a radius of only a few square kilometers, and the capacity of 10,000 people is already the limit, and there is no room for troops to use it.
In such a crowded place to carry out street fighting, Yang Feng didn't know whether to praise the other party's god assistance or scold the other party's stupidity.
Seeing Yang Feng in a daze, the officers present thought that their Hou Ye was thinking about the problem, and they didn't dare to disturb him, so they all stood aside and waited quietly.
After a long while, Yang Feng came back to his senses, and when he saw that everyone was looking at him, he smiled dumbly and said, "Since the red-haired devils want to find death, we can't live up to their kindness."
The order went down, let the hot air balloon suspend the attack, fly over Fort San Petro, take turns to monitor the movement of Fort San Petro, and report any situation on the walkie-talkie in time.
In addition, the 2nd and 4th battalions were ordered to stand guard on the perimeter, and the 1st and 3rd battalions entered the city through the south and north gates respectively. Remember, if you encounter resistance during the attack, no matter who the opponent is, you will be killed! ”
"Understood!"
The surrounding officers agreed in a hurry, especially Geng Bingyi and Chu Maoguang, who were so excited that their eyes lit up, and they didn't stay for a moment, and walked towards the battlefield with a few personal soldiers.
The southern walls of Fort Petro
The southern gate, which had brought casualties to the Jiangning Army ten days ago, had now been opened, and countless soldiers of the Jiangning Army wearing green uniforms were swarming in.
A Qian Zong, who wore the rank of lieutenant colonel, stood at the gate of the city and shouted loudly to the sergeant who was entering the city: "Listen, everyone, everyone is based on what is the unit, no single, no greed, slow progress must not be rash, whoever kills the Pao Ze brothers because of his own rashness, no need Sima to arrest you, Lao Tzu will give him first!" ”
"Don't be rash, don't be greedy! Hou Ye has an order, see that anyone who dares to hand a knife to them is not polite, don't be polite, don't worry about killing! ”
"Pass it on...... Don't be greedy for merit, don't mention killing when you encounter resistance! ”
After Yang Feng formed the Jiangning Army, although he saw that the military rank system of later generations was brought in, he did not make much changes to the system of the Ming army.
Today, the most basic unit of the Jiangning Army is still five people in a team, with one army commander. Ten people are one tithe, and one chief is appointed. Above are the hundred generals, thousands of generals, 2,500 people set up a small commander, 5,000 people set up a battalion, set up a large commander.
The reason why Yang Feng let Geng Bingyi's first battalion and Chu Maoguang's third battalion take the lead is because these two battalions are the two most capable battalions in the Jiangning army, and also because Fort Petro is too small to let go of so many troops at once, and the most important thing is that after so many years of conquest, Yang Feng can't even put all the troops into the battlefield at any time on the battlefield, and he must keep a reserve in his hand.
As soon as the first battalion entered the castle, it encountered resistance from the Spanish army, and a Jiangning army, which was slowly advancing along the not spacious street, had just reached a street corner when a burst of gunfire sounded overhead.
"Bumper ...... Bang bang bang ......"
With a thick puff of white smoke, the two sergeants who were walking in front were shot and fell to the ground.
The sergeants who were suddenly attacked were a little panicked, some of them found cover and hid, and a few of them stepped forward and dragged the two wounded companions to the corner.
The leader in the team roared, "How about the injured brother?" ”
A sergeant quickly checked his wounded companion: "Head...... They didn't have a big problem, the lead hit the stab-proof suit, and it didn't penetrate, but Xiao Lei was shocked out of blood, and it was estimated that his ribs were broken. ”
"Damn, send someone to send Xiao Lei down. The rest followed me to the bottom of the front building. ”
After saying that, the chief looked up at the small two-story building less than 100 meters ahead, and there were still puffs of white smoke coming out of the window of this small building, and it was obvious that the Spaniards had just shot at them there.
"Quick...... While the red-haired devil hadn't loaded his ammunition yet, they all rushed forward with Lao Tzu! ”
"Run!"
With the order of the chief, all the sergeants rushed to the small building.
Listening to the chaotic footsteps overhead, the chief glanced at a sergeant in front of him, and took out a 10,000-strong enemy from his waist.
Shi Chang took out a lighter, and the two lit the fuse of the 10,000 enemies, and after the fuse was lit for a while, Shi Chang shouted: "Still!" ”
I saw three black 10,000 enemies thrown into the window on the second floor.
"Boom ......"
With the sound of two huge explosions, most of the second floor of this small building was blown up in an instant, and more than a dozen Spanish soldiers inside were buried alive......
