Chapter 575: Before the Assault
Chapter 575: Before the Assault (Page 1/1)
The preparations for the assault were coming to an end, and the officers and men of the 1st and 3rd Squadrons of the Teaching Brigade, as well as the attached mortar and anti-aircraft artillery units, were all assembled together.
The Bofors Mountain Artillery Company and the Type 38 Field Artillery Company, which were serving as fire cover, were also completely lined up, and the artillery mirrors, spare 75-mm mountain artillery shells, 75-mm field artillery shells, and various firing cartridges were all laid out.
After the combat readiness work of covering the artillery fire was completed, the area between the command post of the 200th Division and the Luotang Heights, and the entire Kunlun Pass and the 200th Division's confrontation position, the atmosphere of war became stronger and stronger, and as soon as the communication and liaison between the teaching brigade and the artillery and the artillery combat readiness work were over, the busy atmosphere of active preparations for war went down and was replaced by the atmosphere of war.
"Open all the boxes for me!"
The officers and men of the assault unit lined up neatly, and the first infantry squadron, the third infantry squadron, and the combat engineer platoon of the teaching brigade were all here, and these brothers also received Zhang Wei's combat instruction, and Zhang Wei personally announced the battle order in front of the soldiers, and made a lot of words to boost the morale of all the officers and men.
Just now, the soldiers also had a full meal, and the 200 division sent several large pots of messy stews, and the rectification was naturally not as good as teaching the cooking soldiers of the brigade, and the oil and water were insufficient, but fortunately, the amount was large, and they could fill their stomachs, and after eating, the soldiers were full of spirit, and they heard that they were going to fight, and with Zhang Wei's encouragement, the officers and soldiers participating in the battle were eager to try, and after several battles, they taught the officers and soldiers of the brigade to face new battles, and there was no panic, and veterans and recruits could deal with it calmly.
"Seventy-nine bullets, grenades, and pistol bullets are all separated for me!"
"Don't rub it off, the work at hand is neat, people are waiting to kill devils!"
In front of them, the baggage soldiers of the 200th Division and the soldiers of the baggage platoon of the teaching brigade joined forces and moved out nearly twenty or more dark green ammunition boxes, and with the officer's order, the upper lids of nearly twenty ammunition boxes were opened, revealing the ammunition stored inside.
In the ammunition box were rows of seventy-nine pointed rifle bullets, loaded with five-round bridge clips, as well as boxes of wooden-handled grenades and seven-six-three pistol rounds.
The baggage soldiers opened the box very casually, and they used a lot of force, and the bullets in the box bumped against each other, making a rattling sound.
The soldiers of the teaching brigade who were about to participate in the war saw the ammunition box, and the long-term experience of the war made it clear to them that this was about to be reissued for ammunition.
Soon, a captain of the 200th Division stepped forward.
"Brothers, let's start fighting, take the ammunition as you like! Kill a few more devils for those of us who don't go up! The captain said boldly.
As soon as the order was given, the officers and soldiers of the teaching brigade ran to the ammunition box in small steps, orderly and casually began to replenish the ammunition by themselves, this batch of ammunition is the last replenishment before the battle, half of it was pulled down from the carriage by He Kun's baggage platoon, which belonged to the self-owned ammunition of the teaching brigade, and the other half of the ammunition was from the 200 divisions, and the way of allocating the ammunition was also quite tyrants, and the ammunition was unpacked and let the soldiers take it at will, which was not common in the teaching brigade, and the officers and soldiers of the 200 divisions who helped around cast envious and jealous eyes.
The officers and men of the teaching brigade did not rush to grab ammunition, the soldiers were very stable, and for the soldiers of the teaching brigade, ammunition was almost never stopped, and the soldiers' demand for ammunition was far less than that of other troops.
The soldiers of the teaching brigade went to get the ammunition they needed, most of the soldiers took seven or nine bullets, both the Zhongzheng rifle and the Czech light machine gun, the platoon commander of each platoon, the squadron attached to the squadron, and the submachine gunner and squad leader of the engineer platoon mainly took 763 pistol bullets.
The brethren of the two squadrons and the platoon of the brethren took it down, and the bullets were less than half, but the grenades, not one of them, were all taken away, and the brethren who were about to participate in the assault not only filled the grenade pouch around their waists with grenades, but also filled their belts with long-handled grenades, especially some veteran oilers, and one person could carry seven or eight grenades on his body.
"All of them!"
"Line up!"
"Prepare your ammunition!"
The officers and men of the assault unit who had received the ammunition were once again regrouped under the solemn gaze of the officers and men of the baggage unit, and each of them was full of ammunition on their backs, even exceeding the normal amount of ammunition, and the soldiers of the engineer platoon carried a thick blasting canister on their backs.
The four 82 mortars assigned to the assault troops were dismantled under the command of Dong Erli, the commander of the mortar platoon, and the mortar parts and shells were on standby at any time.
In short, the assault troops, have sharpened their knives

“…… Zhang Wei, in this attack, the 600th Regiment and the 599th Regiment of our division will launch a siege on the front of Kunlun Pass and the Jieshou Heights at the same time, and you will be fully responsible for the attack on the Luotang Heights, the 598th Regiment is there, I have already informed the commander of the Gaoji people, the regiment will try its best to cover you, if you fail to attack, the 598th Regiment will quickly respond to you......"
In the command post of the 200th Division, Division Commander Dai and Zhang Wei completed the final discussion and briefly deduced the scheduled battle process on the map.
At the level of the entire Kunlun Pass, the 200th Division will use the strength of two regiments to launch an attack on the Jieshou Heights and the Kunlun Pass, creating the illusion of a full-scale siege of Kunlun Pass, while Zhang Wei's assault troops will take the opportunity to launch an attack on the Luotang Heights, and the 598th Regiment of the Gaoji people will cover Zhang Wei's assault troops on the side, and Zhang Wei's men need to make a breakthrough on the Luotang Heights, wait for an opportunity to expand the results of the battle, assist the 200 Divisions, and accelerate the battle to conquer the Kunlun Pass.
"Report to the chief, I understand that our department will launch an attack on Luotang after the head of the boundary and the pass are opened, and swear to take the enemy's high ground!" Zhang Weili replied.
Master Dai's tone softened a little softer, and he patted Zhang Wei on the shoulder.
"Do your best, the Japanese army has worked the fortifications of Kunlun Pass, if you really can't fight it, you don't have to resist hard, the Gaoji people will wait for the opportunity to cover your retreat."
Master Dai, this is relieving Zhang Wei.
"Report to the chief, I will do my best to take Luotang and Kunlun Pass!"
Zhang Wei's tone was very firm.
