Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The bandits on the horses poured up in groups, and the equipment in their hands was also varied, strange and strange, a considerable number of bandits did not even have the most basic weapons and rifles of the infantry cavalry, but just rushed up with a saber brandished, and some did not even have a special saber for the cavalry, and what they carried in their hands was only what they could find called weapons.
can only call things, Ning Jinshan really can't muster the courage to call them weapons.
World War II has long ended, the weapon developed by the principle of thermonuclear fusion atomic bomb test successful, and applied in actual combat (Hiroshima, Nagaki), strategic and tactical bombers can carpet bomb the enemy, human military science and technology has developed to a new height, but in the vast land of Xinjiāng, in April and May of 1950 AD, there is still such a group of stubborn bandits wielding swords and arrows like weapons to charge towards the position of the People's Liberation Army, and still dreaming of the outbreak of the third world war, dream of what to do xinjiāng owner.
It's no longer a battle between cold weapons, Ning Jinshan, who was born in Tubalu, was also stunned by the bandits' weapons, our old Northwest Field Army is poor enough, but it hasn't been like this, just with such weapons and equipment, can you break through the position of the People's Liberation Army? Whether it was the bandit's head that was in the water, or did he really not understand the consequences of facing superior firepower, Ning Jinshan, the commander of the fourth battalion, was a little puzzled
Bandits are fearless because of ignorance, this old oriental proverb is a good illustration of the ignorance and stupidity of the bandits, they don't know what a big battle is, they don't know what is infantry and artillery coordination, maybe they haven't even heard of the fire network at the front of the position, they just blindly rush up with the speed of the horses.
These people who rushed up really thought that it was nothing, they thought that the weapons and equipment of the PLA were not much stronger even if they were stronger than them, and so many people charged together, even if the PLA opened fire. There are only a few killed, and most of them can rush forward, and as long as they can get close, the balance of victory will be tilted in their favor, and more people will always have the advantage when they fight less, and it is impossible to suffer.
In fact, it is not surprising that xinjiāng is located in the northwest border, and there was basically no industrial production capacity before 50 years, and all weapons and equipment had to be transported from the outside world, and rifles were very remarkable weapons. If you want to replenish it, you have to exchange a large number of livestock, and according to the psychology of the bandits, the bullets exchanged for a sheep can't be exchanged for a few hits. Outrageously expensive.
Not to mention these bandits, even the cavalry of the Majia Army in the northwest sometimes only had ten bullets per soldier. The reason of the chief is. I am afraid that the bullets in their hands will be captured by the communist army, but in fact, they don't want to give more, and the fear of being captured by the communist army is just a nice way to put it.
Since the large-scale bandit riots, the scale of the rioters has increased more than ten times, and the bandits, which originally had only 7,000 or 8,000 people, have expanded to more than 100,000 people, and there is a shortage of guns and ammunition. With the exponential increase in personnel, the need for weapons and equipment became an astronomical headache, and without outside support, Usman would not have been able to arm all the bandits, even if he had great ability. That's why a significant part of the bandits didn't even have rifles.
Yao Lebos, the No. 2 person, and his wife Feng Mengli both promised to ask Taiwan's President Chiang for instructions and use airplanes to airdrop them on them, but after so much time, they haven't seen any weapons airdropped, let alone any airdrops, and they haven't even seen the hairy hairs of a plane.
It is better to ask for others than for yourself, President Chiang who is far away in Taiwan can't count on it, and the promise of Yao Lebos and his wife is not as good as farting, Usman had to use local materials, use all the household goods that can go to the battlefield, use knives if there is no gun, and make do with a stick if he doesn't even have a knife.
Usman knew his weakness very well in his heart, and he didn't pin his hopes on these cannon fodder who rushed over first, using them to charge was just to test the firepower of the PLA's defensive positions, to put it bluntly, the first charge was a tentative attack.
Li Yong used the four infantry battalions of the Duli Brigade to organize defense around the county seat, in fact, the attention was still on the east, west and south, don't look at the bandits from all directions, but the north of the city of Yiwu County is the former Beishan position, more than 2,000 meters above sea level, no matter how powerful the bandits' equestrian skills are, they can't run up, and the troops can't be used, even if there are bandits who touch them, it's just some harassing actions, if you want to capture Yiwu, you still have to find a way in the remaining directions.
It was Wang Laohu's fifth battalion that was responsible for the defense of Beishan, why did he do this? Because several battalion commanders know very well that there may not be a big battle in the Beishan area, the credit of the fifth battalion is not small, and no good thing can be brought by one battalion! So at the meeting, several battalion commanders shouted for the fifth battalion to guard the north.
Wang Laohu, the commander of the fifth battalion, was a great hero who was well-known throughout the field army, and he didn't care about the shouting of a few of them, and asked Li Yong and Wang Chengde for instructions with a smile, since everyone was willing, their five battalions would guard the Beishan position.
After hearing that the mission was returned, the soldiers of the fifth battalion were dissatisfied, thinking that their battalion commander would have to compete with several other infantry battalions, and at worst, they would have to use the method of drawing lots to determine the direction of the guard.
Later, several soldiers who proposed to use lots to determine the direction of the guard were reprimanded by Wang Laohu, who told the soldiers of their battalion:
"Guarding the north is guarding the north, what's wrong with the north mountain? It is also very important, Beishan is the commanding heights of the entire battlefield, and controlling this position is a big matter of life and death for the whole brigade. ”
The North Mountain, which is more than 2,000 meters above sea level, is indeed difficult to handle, and Usman also understands this truth, and only a small number of troops are placed in the north, and he himself has moved to several other directions with the bandit brigade.
The first to fire was due south, and it was the fourth battalion of Ning Jinshan that was responsible for the defense.
The Duli Brigade is fully organized into ten battalions, each with more than 1,000 personnel, such a team is a monster in the Northwest Field Army, and the full load of the war machine makes this monster full of explosive power.
The five infantry battalions responsible for the defense of the battlefield each have their own characteristics, one battalion, which is resourceful and flexible; the second battalion, steady and steady; three battalions, fierce and tenacious; Five battalions, balanced offense and defense.
And the fourth battalion of course also has their own characteristics, the fourth battalion commander Ning Jinshan, is a famous sharpshooter in the brigade, is also recognized as the first shooter, under his leadership, the battalion soldiers in addition to the brigade equipped with standard equipment also carry a large number of 38 rifles, this is to make up for the lack of long-range weapons in the army and specially prepared, and in peacetime, the battalion commander Ning Jinshan also specially trained the soldiers to shoot accurately, after a period of time, the fourth infantry battalion has become the brigade of the most powerful shooting technology of a battalion, A large number of shooters and Zhu De shooters (the level of sharpshooters of the People's Liberation Army in the War of Liberation) emerged.
The horse team attacked by the bandits entered a distance of 500 meters, Ning Jinshan calmly ordered the artillery to open fire, more than 20 small mortars had already been accurate in all kinds of firing standards, and the artillery ammunition packages had already been loaded.
The sound of the small cannon ejecting the chamber was uniform, tom tom, the artillery platoon bombarded the bandit group at a very fast speed, and the cannonballs flew high in the sky like flocks of birds, with a chirping sound, and then fell into the crowd, under the horse's belly.
The trigger fuse of the cannonball sounded as soon as it hit the ground, and the shrapnel collapsed into the sky in the shape of an umbrella, and the violent force used the shrapnel to cut all the qiē they encountered, and those that could not be cut got into it, and then rolled a few times, and in the blink of an eye, blood and shredded flesh flew all over a large area of the sky.
Under the frantic firing of the soldiers of the artillery platoon, more than two dozen small mortars fired shells outward at an alarming speed, and the sky was full of bird calls a few hundred meters away from the front of the position of the fourth battalion, and after a few seconds, it became craters everywhere.
At the same time, the small cannonballs that exploded on the ground exploded one wall after another, and the front and back of the wall of fire instantly turned into a hell of death, followed by piles of dead people and dead horses.
Blood and minced flesh flew in the air, coating the surrounding qiē with a thick layer, and smearing it on the companions who charged with them, and the knights on the horse were frightened and panicked, and the eyes of the bandits who were not killed by the explosion stared at the garden, and looked at the surrounding qiē with an unbelievable gaze.
It turns out that there can be as many shells as there are stones on the Gobi Desert! The minced meat all over the ground is the brother who attacked with them just now? When did the warriors on the prairie become so weak and couldn't help the wind.
A bandit's eyes suddenly turned red, and his vision was blurred, and the bandit wiped it on his face with his hand in fear, and it turned out to be a lake of flesh on a large piece of corpse to his eyes, and the bandit was frightened, and from his throat came out a call that was not a human voice, and then turned his horse's head and ran back.
Sometimes there is a lack of a leader in the group, and if one person turns around and runs away, it will drive a large number of people with the same mind, and a large number of people can decide the victory or defeat of a battle.
Five minutes? Six minutes? Or seven minutes? Maybe not, the bandits who launched an attack in front of the position of the fourth battalion were bombed back by a burst of artillery fire before they could contact the main position, and the people who ran back were all shocked, as if they had turned around in front of Lord Yama.
Usman and a large group of his subordinates watched the battle in this area, and the battle scene between the enemy and us was clearly visible, and the old bandit leader slapped his thigh fiercely and scolded angrily:
"Hey, how can the communist army have so many small cannons, who can sue me, why does the communist army have so many small cannons? How did you find out, your brains are fed to the wolves? (To be continued......)
