Chapter 524: Nemesis
Ten kilometers for cavalry, half an hour can be reached. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Coincidentally, the commander of the Japanese division had just arrived at the battlefield with six or seven thousand men, and the cavalry division had also joined the two or three regiments of the same division.
At this time, the 2nd and 3rd regiments plus artillery still had about 3,000 people, and the Japanese troops in front of them, plus the division commanders just brought, were nearly 10,000.
When he first faced the nearly 10,000 Japanese army, Huang Zhongxin had no other words to describe his mood at the moment except worry.
Fortunately for Huang Zhongxin, not long after the Japanese army arrived, the cavalry division also came.
Looking at the cavalry team behind Wu Xin, who couldn't see the edge at a glance, Huang Zhong Nobunaga breathed a sigh of relief, and without saying a word, he handed over the command of the battlefield to Wu Xinshou, the commander of the cavalry division.
"Master Wu, how are you going to fight! Our two regiments plus the field artillery regiment will cooperate unconditionally! Huang Zhongxin was not unhappy in the slightest, and Wu Xin replied very readily as soon as the commander Yang Xingguo's order was reached.
"Then you're welcome......" Wu Xin replied very cheerfully.
"The biggest role of the cavalry is to rush and kill on the battlefield, if the cavalry division can rush into the Japanese position, it will be nearly 10,000 Japanese troops on the battlefield, which is not enough for the cavalry division to kill in two rounds!" After thinking about it, Wu Xin said with an arrogant face.
Seeing that Huang Zhongxin and Xu Hai were frowning because of their big words, Wu Xin's tone changed and continued: "However, on the field battlefield, cavalry is not invincible! ”
"As long as the Japanese army concentrates a large number of light and heavy machine guns in front of the cavalry, no matter how many people there are in our cavalry division, there will not be enough for them to kill! Therefore, I need the cooperation of the two of them to knock out the Japanese light and heavy machine guns, or attract the fire of the Japanese light and heavy machine guns to myself! ”
"In this way, our cavalry division will be able to enter the Japanese positions and inflict a lot of casualties on them!"
"If this plan is completed, the Japanese army, which has suffered heavy losses, will not dare to attack us casually, and the task assigned to us by the commander will be completed!"
Huang Zhongxin's brows immediately relaxed, and he said excitedly: "Good way!" ”
"Master Wu, how do you want us to cooperate. As long as we can do it, we will cooperate unconditionally! ”
After listening to Huang Zhongxin and Xu Hai's assurances, Wu Xin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, these two people are not their subordinates, and if the other party does not cooperate, he can't help them.
However, once the two of them cooperate with him, Wu Xin can confidently say that his plan is half successful.
Under the gaze of two pairs of expectant eyes, Wu Xiner said the plan he had thought of along the way without saying a word.
From the mouth of the chief of staff of the Japanese army position one mile away, plus the reconnaissance of the reconnaissance unit, the division commander already knew the specific situation of the battlefield.
After closing his eyes and thinking for a full minute, the division commander suddenly opened his eyes and decided: "We must eat the Liaodong Army in front of us before the follow-up reinforcements of the Liaodong Army arrive, especially the cavalry division they have just reinforced!" ”
"According to intelligence, the Liaodong Army only has this one cavalry division, as long as they eat them. In the next battle, we don't need to prepare troops to keep an eye on them and prevent them from attacking us! ”
The chief of staff frowned and asked, "Eat a cavalry division!" Division commander, is there enough time? ”
"Enough!" The division commander replied categorically.
"According to the reconnaissance, the follow-up troops of the Liaodong Army left Liaoyang half an hour ago and rushed here, even if it was a rapid march, it would take at least an hour. There are nearly 10,000 of us, and as long as we set them up well, we can definitely eat them in an hour. ”
After saying that, it doesn't matter what the chief of staff thinks in his heart? He commanded directly: "The cavalry is fast, and it is easy to break through from under our noses!" So, the first thing we need to do is plug all the gaps where they can run for their lives. ”
"Look at the map, there are three roads behind the Liaodong Army that can make them retreat, as long as we send troops to block these three roads, in the words of the Qing State, the Liaodong Army here will become a turtle in the urn, and we can destroy them as much as we want!"
"One infantry brigade on one road, one heavy machine gun squadron reinforced, thirty light machine guns, set off immediately!"
"Shhh The chief of staff couldn't help but gasp and asked: "Division commander, you are not wrong, use an infantry brigade to block the back road of the Liaodong Army." We are surrounded by a cavalry division of the Liaodong Army, so you are not afraid that an infantry brigade will not only not be able to stop the cavalry division of the Liaodong Army, but will also be eaten by them! ”
The division commander shook his head and explained: "You overestimate the combat effectiveness of the cavalry. In front of ordinary infantry, cavalry is indeed invincible. ”
"But don't forget, on the field battlefield, cavalry also has a nemesis. The heavy machine guns that I reinforced the three infantry brigades were not vegetarian. ”
"Nearly 100 light and heavy machine guns were placed in front of the cavalry and shot together, and no matter how many cavalry the Liaodong Army sent to attack, it would be killed!"
"Besides, this infantry brigade only needs to block the Liaodong Army for an hour! So, there was not a single problem with the three infantry brigades in the past! “
As soon as the chief of staff passed the order, the division commander continued to order.
"There are only more than 2,000 people in the Liaodong Army who can carry out frontal defense, and I plan to attack and attack their positions in one attack. As long as we fight with them, we can use our superiority in strength to destroy them! ”
"However, there is one thing that we cannot ignore, the artillery of the Liaodong Army."
"Although there are only a few dozen mountain field guns, before our heavy artillery brigade arrives, the power of these dozens of mountain field guns should not be underestimated, so the heavy machine guns that act as fire cover will definitely be hit by their mountain field artillery."
"Therefore, the heavy machine gun positions must be arranged, and if you can arrange a few more, you can arrange a few more!"
"Also, in addition to heavy machine guns, the advantages of light machine guns must also be fully exploited! The mountain artillery can shell heavy machine guns to form a fixed point of fire, but it can't help a light machine gun that can hold a charge! ”
"I decided to equip all the remaining light machine guns of the division with the attacking troops, and also to equip them with the first echelon of the attacking troops. While the troops were attacking, light machine guns were fired at the same time, and the fire could not be interrupted. ”
"More than a hundred light machine guns, plus dozens of heavy machine guns, shot together, even if the Liaodong Army has dozens of mountain artillery, it will not play a big role in a short time. When the time comes, the intensive machine-gun fire will definitely be able to suppress the Liaodong Army, and it will not be able to raise its head! ”
"Good way, we've never used this tactic before. But I'm sure it will have an unexpected effect! Division commander, how did you come up with it! The chief of staff asked excitedly while being shocked.
"Liaodong Army, this tactic was invented by the Liaodong Army, I heard it from the mouths of other division commanders!" The division commander's face immediately became gloomy, and he said with a heavy weapon.
"Liaodong Army? It was so unexpected! Division commander, today we will use the tactics invented by the Liaodong Army itself to defeat them! The chief of staff was stunned for a moment, and shouted with a confident face. (To be continued.) )
