191 Infantry Synergy
The infantry artillery coordination tactic is a great test of an army's combat effectiveness, because this tactic involves two aspects, one is the technique of artillery, and the other is the courage of the infantry.
If the artillery's technology is poor and the shells deviate too much, the shells will hit the heads of your own infantry directly; If the infantry did not have the courage to move a kilometer away from the position of the shelling, the shells were in vain, because the enemy had plenty of time to get up from the trenches and defend after the shelling stopped.
The distance between the artillery shell explosion point and the infantry attack www.biquge.info determines the power of this tactic, the closer this distance, the shorter the distance of the infantry charge, the stronger the power of the tactic, in the era of Lin Fei, the distance of the world is not the same, the US army is 300 meters, the Japanese army is 200 meters, Lin Fei era his army, this distance is an astonishing 100 meters.
At this time, the distance of Lin Fei's troops was about 350 meters to 400 meters, which was not because Lin Fei's troops did not have the guts, but because Lin Fei was not at ease with the artillery, after all, the manufacturing accuracy of weapons and equipment was not very high, and the circumferential dispersion of the shells was still relatively large, and Lin Fei didn't want to watch his shells kill his infantry.
One after another, the shells fell on the positions of the Spaniards, and the anti-personnel shrapnel flew over the trenches with the sound of "whirring", and the Spanish soldiers all huddled in the trenches, not even daring to raise their heads, taking advantage of this time, the soldiers of the 3rd Regiment of the 1st Brigade of Lin Fei's troops touched up from the 400-meter infantry offensive position.
They quickly advanced to a distance of 200 meters from the Spanish barbed wire, then lay down on the ground and waited for the shelling to end, their actions were soon discovered by the Spanish scouts, who immediately reported to the commander in the trench, who hurriedly shouted: "Shoot at the enemy, don't let them rush over the barbed wire." ”
A few brave soldiers poked their heads out of the trench and shot at the soldiers of Lin Fei's troops in the distance, the battlefield was full of smoke, and they couldn't see the target clearly, so none of the bullets hit the target, but they poked their heads out of the trench, which gave the anti-personnel grenade a chance, and a few flying shrapnel shot them instantly.
Seeing that his men could not raise their heads, the trench commander waved a herald and shouted amid a rumbling explosion: "Hurry up and deliver a message inside the fort and let them shoot at the enemy." ”
Since the Spanish soldiers had never seen a cloudburst bomb, they did not know that the people in the fort had become charred, and they thought that the fort was their own strong barrier, so the trench commander sent a message to the fort.
The herald ran outside the fortress, pushed open the door of the fortress, and the scene before him frightened him into sitting on the ground, only to see that inside the fortress was a place of twisted corpses, these people were suffocated to death, everyone's eyes widened, their hands clasped to their throats, and their mouths were exaggeratedly open......
The herald had no idea what was going on in the fort, and the intense fear gripped his heart, and a warm liquid flowed from between his legs, and he struggled to get up and ran towards the trench commander, wanting to tell him what he saw, but it was too late, because the cannon fire stopped, and the charge of Lin Fei's troops began.
The unit that took charge of this offensive mission was the Third Regiment of the First Brigade, they were the last troops to land ashore, and the regiment commander was named Liu Chaofan, who was one of the prisoners of war brought back by Lin Fei from Japan.
As soon as Liu Chaofan heard that the sound of the artillery stopped, he turned back and rushed to the heavy machine gun squad and sent a signal to "cover us".
The heavy machine gun squad used the captured Makqin heavy machine gun, and they were in the 400-meter infantry attack position at this time, and after receiving Liu Chaofan's order, they launched a fire on the Spanish soldiers' trenches, and the bullets hit the front and rear edges of the trenches, splashing patches of dust, and pressing the Spanish soldiers to lower their heads again.
The trench commander heard the sound of heavy machine guns and roared: "Where is our fortress? And what about heavy machine guns? Why hasn't there been any movement? Go a few more heralds and get the fort to support us. ”
Liu Chaofan heard the Makqin heavy machine gun go out, turned his head and said to the trumpeter: "Blow the trumpet..."
The bugler picked up the trumpet and blew out a terrible horn sound, and the soldiers of Lin Fei's troops who were lying on the ground roared and stood up angrily and rushed towards the barbed wire.
The Spanish trench commander saw the soldiers of Lin Fei's troops rushing up, but the three fortresses behind him were silent, and he was anxious, ignoring the bullets of the Makqin heavy machine gun that were still "whizzing", and shouted directly: "Hit, hit me..."
After speaking, the trench commander grabbed a rifle, peeked out of the trench, and shot at the soldiers of Lin Fei's troops who were charging, and the others were infected by him, and they also showed their heads and shot at the soldiers of Lin Fei's troops, and the soldiers who rushed to the front were knocked to the ground on the spot, and the planks also fell to the ground, and the soldiers behind were not afraid, picked up the planks and continued to rush forward.
At this time, the position of the Maxim heavy machine gun was on the side of the assault troops, and the bullets could fully cover the assault troops without being accidentally injured, and the Spanish soldiers showed their heads, and the bullets hit their heads, and the dead bodies "plopped" and fell into the trenches, and the other Spanish soldiers were frightened by the death of their companions and shrank back in fear.
As the distance approached, Lin Fei's troops began to use grenadiers to throw grenades into the Spanish trenches, and many soldiers were directly killed in the trenches, and the grenades and heavy machine guns weakened the resistance of the Spanish soldiers, so the soldiers rushed to the barbed wire fence without paying too many casualties, spread the wooden planks on it, and jumped over the barbed wire fence on the wooden planks.
The barbed wire was stepped on too much, and soon it couldn't bear the weight, and it fell to the ground with a bang, and the charge of the fighters behind was easier, the barbed wire was about fifty meters away from the trench, and the soldiers looked at the last fifty meters of distance, puffed up a breath, and rushed over, but at this moment, a loud "boom" sounded among the soldiers, and more than a dozen fighters were blown out, and the corpses were on the spot.
It turned out that the Spaniards had deployed a number of mountain guns behind each section of trenches, and these mountain guns were usually placed in underground bunkers, and they would only be taken out when the enemy attacked.
Lin Fei had already reported the enemy's deployment of mountain artillery, so the participating troops were prepared, and the soldiers of the participating troops were also ready to sacrifice for the Chinese Empire in front of the cannonballs, because the enemy's mountain artillery was very hidden, and it was impossible for them to discover it in advance, so they could not destroy it in advance.
When the mountain artillery was pushed out and fired, Lin Fei's artillery found that it also took a certain amount of time, and the process from discovery to return fire was enough for the enemy mountain artillery to attack.
Lin Fei's troops were prepared, so the attack of the mountain artillery did not stop their attack, but made them speed up the charge, while the Spaniards' mountain artillery did not have a retraction machine, and the rate of fire was extremely slow.
Before Lin Fei's troops attacked the trenches, they first bombarded with howitzers, then swept with Makqin heavy machine guns, and finally bombarded them with grenades, and the Spanish soldiers in the trenches were either killed or stunned, and at this time they could not stop the infantry who pounced on them like wolves, and the two sides only fought in the trenches for five or six minutes, and the Spanish soldiers were defeated, and Lin Fei's troops immediately occupied the trenches between Fortress 022 and Fortress 024.
After Liu Chaofan occupied the trenches, on the one hand, he sent a message to Lin Fei, and on the other hand, his troops divided into two routes and continued to attack the fortresses and trenches on the east and west sides.
Lin Fei's troops took a section of the trench, and the news was quickly delivered to Governor Sanders, who listened to the herald's report with some disbelief and asked, "The Chinese pigs broke through our defense line and occupied our trenches?" ”
The herald nodded again and again, and said, "Report to the Governor, it is like this. ”
Governor Sanders' face showed a look of surprise, as if he had seen a ghost, and said, "How is this possible? Our fort was designed by the military engineers of Madrid, using the most advanced military engineering technology, it is said that the concrete was purchased from France, and we also had a lot of Maxim heavy machine guns in it. ”
Speaking of the fortress, the herald's face showed a burst of horror, and he said in a trembling voice: "Report to the Governor, the Chinese pigs don't know what kind of witchcraft they used, and they actually killed all the people inside the fortress without damaging the outer walls of the fortress..."
Governor Sanders frowned and said angrily: "Nonsense... There was no damage on the outside of the fortress, how could the people inside die? ”
The herald said with an innocent face: "Your Excellency, what I said is true, some of them were burned to death, and some of them seemed to be suffocated to death because they couldn't breathe......
Governor Sanders waved his hand fiercely and said, "Okay, let's not talk about that, now the Chinese pigs do have the advantage, but we didn't lose..."
Governor Sanders waved a staff officer and said, "Go and ask the mountain artillery troops, have you found the enemy's artillery positions?" ”
The staff officer promised to run to the phone, and Governor Sanders called another staff officer and said, "Immediately send a herald to order the defenders of the No. 021 and No. 025 fortress areas to immediately move closer to the troops of the Huaxia Empire and encircle and annihilate them..."
The staff officer agreed and ran out, and then the staff officer who called came back and reported: "Your Excellency, the mountain artillery unit has discovered the enemy's artillery position and is preparing to attack. ”
A sinister smile appeared on Governor Sanders' face, and he said viciously: "Lin Fei, it's not certain who wins and who loses. ”
