Chapter 360: Attack!
Sitting still is not Yang Ling's style, now the devils are busy adjusting their deployments and replenishing ammunition, but Yang Ling and they will not stay in the trenches stupidly and wait for the devils to attack. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The regiment commander Zhang Handuo suggested that he first attack and recapture a small high ground 500 meters away from Longji in order to seize the initiative on the battlefield.
Although they are already fighting a modern war, it is still extremely important to occupy the strategic commanding heights, and now that this high ground is occupied by devils, they can set up their guns and bombard Yang Ling and them condescendingly, making Yang Ling and them very passive.
If this high ground is snatched, then the battlefield situation will be enough to reverse, whether it is offensive or defensive, this initiative will return to Yang Ling and them, so Yang Ling agreed without hesitation.
An operational meeting of battalion and company commanders was soon held in the humble temporary regimental headquarters, and combat missions were deployed for the seizure of this small high ground.
The brothers had been training for a winter, and they had not enjoyed the night in a daze, and when they heard that they were going to fight on the high ground, they were very enthusiastic and rushed to fight.
On weekdays, they eat meat and drink wine, and call each other brothers, but they don't give in to each other when they rush to the task, and the battalion and company commanders fight for each other.
Whether they were fighting Shanghai or Nanjing, the brothers were forcibly pressed on the battlefield by harsh military orders, and whether they wanted to or not, they had to be nailed to the position like nails, and once they retreated, they had to eat the guns of the warlords.
But now the situation has changed, after the brothers have been trained, they have eaten well and dressed warmly, and they have been inspired by the national righteousness.
Yang Ling knew that these changes of the brothers had a lot to do with the changes in the domestic situation, and when the government first attacked Shanghai and Nanjing, the government still had a trace of peace talks, and although the brothers went to the battlefield, they did not want to give their lives, and finally ended up in peace talks.
But now the government has given up the illusion of peace talks, desperately resisted, and all kinds of propaganda are overwhelming, and the brothers, as soldiers, are naturally encouraged to boil their blood, and in addition they have a blood feud with the devils, this war is naturally full of energy.
"Our brothers in the second battalion have been screaming for a long time, Tuanza, leave this task to us!"
The second battalion commander Chen Ming's team is still acting as a reserve at the moment, so naturally he doesn't want the brother troops to fight happily in front, and they are watching from behind, anxious to ask for battle.
Lu Xing, the commander of the first battalion, also spoke: "Tuanza, you only need to give us half an hour, and our first battalion will guarantee to take the mountain!"
Seeing the high morale of the brothers, although the regimental commander Zhang Handuo was happy, he couldn't make a decision for a while, after all, he was new to the regiment and was not very clear about the combat effectiveness of the battalions in the regiment.
"Brother Yang, what do you think?" In the end, the head of the regiment, Zhang Handuo, had to consult Yang Ling, the deputy head of the regiment.
Yang Ling saw Zhang Handuo, the head of the regiment who was embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Since it is difficult to decide, let's draw lots to decide."
Yang Ling's method not only solved the problem, but also avoided offending people, and was unanimously agreed by everyone.
Soon, the results of the lot draw came out, and the first battalion commander Lu Xing's face bloomed with a smile: "Concession, concession."
The battle deployment was quickly issued, the second battalion took over the flank cover of the first battalion, the first battalion mainly attacked the hilltop high ground, and the third battalion where Yang Ling was located was tasked with clearing the enemy from the position to the high ground in depth of 500 meters.
Although Yang Ling was the deputy commander, after all, he was also the commander of the third battalion, so he still returned to the battalion to command the task of clearing the offensive road.
There was still no movement on the devil's side, but everyone who received the order was already half-squatting in the trench and preparing in full swing, the rifles were full of bullets, and the assault platoon was finally checking its weapons and ammunition.
The 3rd Battalion was responsible for clearing the enemy within 500 meters from the position to the hilltop and opening the way for the 1st Battalion's attack.
In the past, the troops had been on the defensive and retreating, but this time it was an unprecedented offensive operation, and every brother was extremely excited, and he had the meaning of raising his eyebrows.
"The first company is a frontal assault, the second company is responsible for flank cover, and the third company follows behind the first company as a reserve to prevent the devils from counterattacking."
Yang Ling also summoned the six chief and deputy company commanders in the battalion to issue combat missions, and when he saw the excited company commanders, he emphasized: "This time our assault must be fast and ruthless, and we must rush to their depth before the devils do not react!"
"Do you have faith?" Yang Ling asked.
The six company commanders replied in unison: "Yes!"
"Okay, I'm invincible! Win! Yang Ling stretched out his hand, and the company commanders also put their hands on it, and expressed their determination in a low roar.
The brethren were quickly prepared, and the mortars and anti-aircraft guns equipped with the regiment opened fire first.
"Whew! Shout! Shout! ”
The cannonballs dragging white smoke tore through the air and smashed into the Japanese positions hundreds of meters away.
"Boom, boom、......"
A deafening explosion rang out, sending scorched earth from the trench walls and smoke mixed with fire enveloping the Japanese positions.
"Damn, this is enough for you to drink a pot, so that you can be arrogant again."
The old smoking gun cat bent his waist to observe the Japanese position was shrouded in gunsmoke, grinning, in the past, they could only be beaten and could not fight back, but now they can also take the initiative to attack, not to mention how painful it is in my heart.
Although the regiment was equipped with anti-aircraft artillery and mortars, the number of shells was not large, so it had to be spared, and the shelling stopped after a few minutes.
"Up! Above! Fast! As soon as the cannon stopped, before the smoke dissipated, Yang Ling's voice rang out.
Yang Ling's voice was full of penetration, and the brothers in the entire trench surged, carrying their guns and turning out of the trench and rushing towards the little devil's position.
The brothers no longer rushed towards the swarm of swarms in the past, this time there was no shout of mountains and tsunamis, and they rushed forward quickly according to the attack formation during training, and the speed of each figure was terrifying.
The Japanese army was accustomed to attacking like a wild bull on the Chinese battlefield, and they became extremely arrogant.
They also got the news that a new Chinese army had arrived opposite them, and they were replenishing ammunition, adjusting their firepower, and preparing for a new offensive.
But unexpectedly, Yang Ling and they launched an attack first, and those rapid-fire artillery fire stunned the Japanese army, and when they reacted, Yang Ling and their three battalions of assault troops had already rushed to a distance of dozens of meters from the Japanese trenches.
"The people of China! The people of China! ”
A soldier Cao who shook off the dirt from his steel helmet had just stood up from the trench and was about to observe the enemy's situation, when he suddenly saw the Chinese soldiers rushing over under the pressure of black pressure, and a terrible voice sounded in the smoke of gunpowder.
The soldier reacted quickly, tugging at the bolt of the gun and preparing to shoot, but a hot bullet had already flown at a rapid speed, and the steel helmet on his head was lifted with a clatter.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”
Dense gunshots rang out, and before the Japanese soldier who had taken off his steel helmet could react, a few more bullets flew in, poofing into his chest, splashing flesh and blood, and his body was hit by the impact of the bullets and involuntarily retreated, sliding and falling into the trench.
