Chapter 110: Supervising the War
The deep mountain and old forest roads of the Hufeiling Mountains are rugged and difficult to navigate, so the support troops need to go to the plains beyond Hufeiling.
At the edge of the Hufeiling Mountain Range, there is a defensive line composed of about 50,000 Houjin soldiers and horses, which was named by the General Headquarters as the Second Route Army of the Later Jin Korean Front.
In addition, there were also cavalry troops of about two or three thousand people in the Second Route Army of the Later Jin Korean Front.
Reinforcements need to be interspersed in the enemy's large defense line, which requires extremely strong mobility, and this alone has eliminated all the infantry.
Finally, the General Headquarters ordered the 15th Battalion of the 15th Ranger Regiment, which was returning home to rest, and the 103rd Battalion of the 1st Cavalry Regiment, which was training on Jeju Island, to immediately advance in the direction of Tasan.
At the same time, the [Naval Tactical Research Group] also recovered the albatross that had made the first attack, and began the ground supply work in a dense manner.
A group of bear children had just carried a full 50-pound weight to complete the bombing of the target area 60 kilometers away, and it was time to vent hunger, fatigue, excitement, showing off and other emotions.
Ground crews and handlers are busy doing the related work. They have received orders from the General Command, there are changes in the Tower Hill area, and today, they need to make as many sorties as possible to relieve the pressure on their comrades on the front line.
However, the little ones are not very old, and although they are smart, the temper of children is always inevitable, and at least for half an hour, [Kunpeng] cannot be dispatched.
On the front line, in the Tashan area, the Houjin Army Battalion of the Huaxia Army, numbered Houjin No. 10, which was closest to this place, had already heard the violent explosion before, and sent scouts to investigate.
The scouts of the 1601 Battalion, with their sophisticated weapons and accurate shooting, eliminated most of the enemy scouts.
But this did not stop the enemy from knowing that the rear road had been cut off.
In recent years, in the scout battles with the Huaxia Army, the Houjin Army was completely at a disadvantage, and they basically had no power to fight back in such small-scale elite engagements.
However, it was in this disadvantage that the Houjin army also developed its own set of investigation methods.
When sending scouts, the Houjin army will generally send a team, and enforce the direction of scouting, the distance of scouting, and the time of return for each member of the scout team.
When the specified time is up, it begins to count the number of personnel losses and regressions in the planning direction and distance.
Relying on this way of human life, the Houjin army was still able to roughly calculate the direction and distance of the Huaxia army.
So, about an hour after Houjin Camp 10 lost most of its scouts, a puff of smoke and dust rose from the direction of the 1601st Battalion, which had just completed a barbed wire defense.
"Battalion commander, Houjin Army, here."
"It's so fast."
The battalion commander observed from the periscope for a while, and ordered with a long sigh of relief, "This first wave should be the enemy's fire reconnaissance, tell the soldiers, hit hard, give full play to the firepower, it is best to be able to frighten the enemy and buy us a certain amount of time." ”
"Understand, this wave is to bluff. Just look at it. Several company commanders immediately went down to prepare.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the Houjin army, pushing a shield cart and holding a shield, walked towards Tashan.
Behind the shield cart, there were several small Furlong cannons and a thousand-pound cannon.
According to the summary of intelligence from all sides, this kind of artillery weighing thousands of catties was developed by Amin's craftsmen when he was alive.
Although neither the range nor the accuracy can be compared with the smoothbore gun of the Huaxia Coast Guard, it can be regarded as a high-power weapon.
When Sukh Saha attacked Chen Xin the year before, he did not carry this kind of heavy artillery, because the distance between the two sides was too long, and the mountain roads were rugged and inconvenient to transport.
And now, the Houjin Army, which has long been fed up with the strong firepower of the Huaxia Army, still pulls this kind of heavy artillery even if the mountain road is difficult and dangerous.
The heavy artillery was followed by more than 3,000 musketeers, using hand-made products of various calibers.
In addition, the opposite direction of the imitation is also different.
The largest number was exported to the Joseon Kingdom in order to raise military expenses in the second year of the fire, with a diameter ranging from 8 mm to 10 mm. According to intelligence, most of the people who are equipped with this kind of bird gun are newly formed North Korean local armed forces.
Next, accounting for less than one percent, is the imitation of the two-year arquebus of the Chinese Army, the caliber is about 16mm-19mm, although the power is huge, but the imitation is not good, and the quasi-head is worse than the bird's gun.
When the Houjin army walked to a distance of about 500 meters in front of the barbed wire position, the shield carts, shields, artillery, and musketeers all stopped there.
The 1601st Battalion was deployed 200 meters behind the barbed wire, so now the enemy and us are gathering more than 700 meters, and as a reconnaissance battalion mainly with light weapons, at this distance, it is somewhat powerless and can only wait for further actions of the enemy.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, there was a noise from the rear of the Houjin army, and a large number of Korean people were driven to the front of the position from the gap left by the Houjin army.
An officer spat and scolded, "Ciao, is the dog Tartar sick, I use this trick every time, and I know that it is not good." ”
"Breathless, Tartar, can you expect them to be human? In our opinion, this trick is useless, but, in the eyes of the enemy, as long as we can consume our ammunition, it is considered to be of full use. ”
After a little silence, the officer who scolded the street sighed, "I also know this, but that's all the population, alas, our country has been lacking in population, and nearly one million immigrants from Daming every year are not enough, but these dogs and Tartars are such a waste of manpower." It's really hard to see. ”
"No way, it's all the people of the enemy country, and in the battle, we can't have the slightest mercy.
Regardless of life or death, take every brother home and never give up on any of your fellow citizens. As long as we do what we have to do, we already have a clear conscience. ”
"Hmm."
"The enemy is coming, all ready."
Seeing the Goryeo folk standing in the front row of the enemy army carrying baskets full of earth and stones, the soldiers of the 1601st Battalion were all ready to shoot without the slightest hesitation.
Everyone shoots freely according to their own shooting level, waiting until the enemy army is in their range.
The top scorer and top scorer started their show at the maximum range of 400 and 300 meters, respectively.
The ultra-high rate of fire of pump-action rifles has made less than 20% of the top marksmen and top marksmen in the battalion play a firepower density of hundreds of people in this era.
As the people around them collapsed one by one under the huge buckshot bullet, the people completely collapsed 100 meters from the barbed wire.
A large crowd of people screamed and threw down their baskets and ran to the back.
However, under the mature supervision system of the Houjin Army, in less than three minutes, the people were forced back to the front line by bloody steel knives.
