Chapter 398: Special Quest VIII
Enraged, Ma Desheng, the commander of the 258th Division, couldn't listen to anyone's words, and led his brigade to crash headlong into the preset position arranged in advance by the independent brigade.
Brigade Commander Li Yong's heart suddenly lifted, more and more enemies poured into the ambush circle, people shouted horses, and their eyes were full of horses' hooves rushing everywhere, and it was still a little bit close, and if there were more and more of them, more of them would be brought in, and it would be better to put all of the 258th Division into it.
The long and narrow ravine, the gentle slopes, and the chaotic grass where you can see the head at a glance, such terrain did not bring any psychological pressure to the enemy's cavalry, although the terrain was not conducive to the cavalry charge, but it was no problem to escape, and the horses could rush to both sides, so none of the soldiers and officers who followed up thought that there would be any great danger.
But what the independent brigade wanted was to make the impossible possible, and when Li Yong first chose the ambush position, he deliberately found such a place, in order to eliminate the enemy's doubts and lead the enemy to be fooled.
If you want to say that you dare to fight hard, these cavalry of the Ma Jiajun from Qinghai do have a set, dare to fight and rush, and have such ruthlessness, but if you want to compare tactics with the People's Liberation Army, these people are nothing, in Li Yong's opinion, they are just some stupid fools.
The soldiers who charged rapidly pursued the scouts in front of them, and the outermost side of the ambush position of the independent brigade was Wang Laohu's fifth battalion, and the arrogant cavalry of the Ma Jiajun held their sabers and screamed wildly, and the soldiers saw it clearly, although they all knew that the reconnaissance battalion was doing the task of luring the enemy, but the soldiers were still uncomfortable when they saw their comrades being chased by the enemy, and they felt uncomfortable in their hearts.
What kind of unit is our independent brigade? It is a well-known hero unit of the whole field army, the trump card of the second column, and the main brigade of the field army
The soldiers of the independent brigade have always won battles, and they have a sense of psychological superiority when fighting against the enemy, in the words of the common people, they are used to it, although they all know that the tasks performed by the scouts are also a little unbearable, and they can't see their troops being chased by the enemy, let alone the enemy's arrogance in front of them, and the soldiers have asked the battalion commander Wang Laohu to ask for battle.
Wang Laohu didn't even look at the squad and platoon leaders who came over, took down the dry tobacco pot in his mouth and said, "What are you doing in the battalion?" Please? What kind of battle, please do not have to wait for the front to start before we can fire, hurry back and master the troops. ”
Wang Laohu's fifth battalion was used by the brigade commander Li Yong to block the ditch, so no matter what happened, it could not be fired first, otherwise the enemy's battle plan for the entire brigade would be aborted as soon as he ran away.
Another few minutes passed, and seeing that the enemy's cavalry brigade had completely drilled into the ambush position of the independent brigade, and the tail was also circling in, Li Yong's hand waved violently and shouted with a walkie-talkie: "All of them, I am Li Yong, the target, the enemy cavalry in the ditch, destroy." ”
With Li Yong's order, the whole valley suddenly read a book, and all kinds of concealments covering the trenches were pushed out by the soldiers, and the countless trenches, fire points, firing bunkers, and artillery positions (which were mortar firing positions) on the slopes on both sides all revealed their eerie colors.
Rifles, submachine guns, light and heavy machine guns, and a large number of small-caliber mortars were firmly pointed at the cavalry units of the 258th Division down the hill.
The first to start was Li Jiangguo's first battalion, the first battalion was placed by Li Yong in the position of the back ditch, that is, the exit on the other side, looking at the extremely dangerous Zhang Jinsong and his scouts who were being chased, Li Jiangguo's palms were sweating, and he couldn't wait to fish Zhang Jinsong and his soldiers over immediately.
Even Li Jiangguo was in a hurry, and the soldiers beside him couldn't hold it back, and a soldier said anxiously: "Battalion commander, let's open fire, and it will be enough for Battalion Commander Zhang to fight a little later." ”
Li Jiangguo glared at the soldier: "Nonsense, you must not open fire without the order of your superiors, even if Battalion Commander Zhang sacrifices, you must bring in all the enemies, the discipline of our People's Liberation Army is iron, Zhang Jinsong is an old soldier, he should have this awareness." ”
As he spoke, the brigade commander's order to fire came from the walkie-talkie next to Li Jiangguo, and Li Jiangguo, an old soldier, was like looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally waited for the order from his superiors.
Don't look at what Li Jiangguo said to the soldiers easily, even if Zhang Jinsong is sacrificed, he has to complete the task, in fact, he knows what is going on psychologically, the feelings of more than 20 veterans of the independent brigade when they started are too unusual, how many years of old comrades-in-arms, crawled out of the pile of dead people, each other has saved each other's lives, and the feelings cannot be explained in words, for example, when Li Jiangguo is asked to exchange his life for Zhang Jinsong, he will not even frown, but he can only watch without orders.
I want to fight with the little devils, fight with the Kuomintang, and now fight with the local warlords in the Qinghai area, there are not many old people left in the beginning, even the old troops of the independent brigade, and the old people of the old 2nd regiment of the fourth brigade, how can I not be anxious when I see Zhang Jinsong being chased by the enemy.
As soon as the brigade commander Li Yong's order came, Li Jiangguo pushed a heavy machine gun shooter away, picked up the Makqin heavy machine gun, and opened fire on the enemy cavalry under the hillside.
The eyes of Li Jiangguo, a veteran soldier who had fought countless vicious battles, widened his eyes, he grabbed the trigger and did not let go, and the heavy machine gun in his hand spewed out flames one or two feet long, and the bullets shot out in strings like torrential rain.
The infantry battalion of the independent brigade had a machine-gun platoon, each platoon was equipped with more than a dozen heavy machine guns, all of which were water-cooled Maxims, a dozen Maxim heavy machine guns, and a machine-gun platoon on the opposite position, a total of more than two dozen heavy machine guns formed a crossfire.
Makqin is water-cooled, there is no worry about the barrel being red and hot, a bullet chain is a bullet box, a full 330 rounds, the continuity of firepower was the top of the infantry at that time, what is the concept of a salvo of more than 20 heavy machine guns? Just thinking about it is scary enough.
The cavalry of the Ma Family Army, who were chasing after Zhang Jinsong, were all knocked down at once by the sudden burst of firepower, and it was not enough to be defeated, because the firepower was too dense, and the people and horses within a distance of dozens of meters behind Zhang Jinsong and the scout were all beaten into a state like blood and mud, that's right, it was blood and mud, what else could a person look like if he was hit by dozens of heavy machine gun bullets.
This kind of firepower density is not to mention people and horses, even a fly doesn't want to fly out, Zhang Jinsong and Ning Erzi rushed out with two or three hundred soldiers for a distance, and then stopped and lay on the car one by one to gasp, ***, finally completed the task alive, it's really not easy, isn't the cavalry of the Ma family army rampant? This time, let you know what it means to be rampant.
The fierce blow made the ditch full of flesh and blood, and the various weapons of the independent brigade were fired, not to mention bullets, even mortar shells rained down, and the bodies that were blown up danced in the sky and then turned into a pile of minced flesh and fell.
The soldiers of the 258th Division in the ditch were driven away by the fire from both sides, and they were killed in one in the south, and another in the north, and the corpses filled the ditch.
When did the troops of these Turkish warlords from the northwest have seen such a powerful firepower strike, a few grassroots officers wanted to try to gather the troops, and then attack to the sides, but before they could organize the people, they were beaten into sieve eyes, and they tried several times in a row, and they said that they charged, and even those who were hiding behind big rocks were killed by the shells of the People's Liberation Army, and no one dared to think of seizing the positions of the People's Liberation Army anymore.
Division commander Ma Desheng was put into a bunker temporarily fenced with dead people and dead horse corpses by several cronies, this guy seemed to have been beaten stupid, and he was stunned for five or six minutes before he came to his senses, yes, Lao Tzu was played by the communist army, this firepower is too fierce, reading must be the arrival of the communist army's large army, no, not to arrive, but people have been waiting here.
"Master, Master, we are in ambush, the brothers are surrounded, you have to hurry up and make an idea, we must break through immediately."
Ma Desheng was also anxious, grinning and scolding: "What's the matter, break through the siege, break through, if you have any ideas, rush with me." The guy got on his horse and rushed out again, but this time instead of chasing the PLA scouts, he tried to escape for his life.
Rushing out, you must rush out, rushing out to have a way to live, and soon more than a thousand soldiers gathered around Ma Desheng, turned around and ran in the direction of the ditch that came in.
According to the idea of winning the horse, although the battle was lost, the communist army may not be able to cover them all, as long as the speed of the cavalry can be brought into play, a large number of people can rush out, and they still have a chance to make a comeback.
The Mizokou troops that strangled the enemy's entry were Wang Laohu's fifth battalion, and they were also the most stable battalion in the independent brigade with the most stable fighting style, which was also the main reason why Li Yong handed over this task to Wang Laohu and his fifth battalion, using the most stable troops to hold behind the enemy's buttocks, and the enemy wanted to rush over such a force? Is this possible?
At the same time as the first battalion started, Wang Laohu ordered his artillery platoon to carry out concentrated fire according to the pre-calibrated shooting Zhuyuan, and blocked the ditch mouth with artillery shells. That depends on whether the PLA agrees or not, and disagreement is a dead end.
The first shot of dozens of shells hit the area that was wanted to be blocked, and the rolling dust was raised several feet high, and then the light and heavy machine guns were fired.
