Chapter 9 Mountain Siege III

The assault force of the independent regiment attacked for several hours, and finally occupied a large pillbox halfway up the hill that had not yet been blown up, and it was much more convenient to have this relatively complete position, and the soldiers could rely on this abandoned large pillbox for a second attack.

The ammunition brought up from the bottom of the mountain was piled up here, and later even the battalion-level command post set up in the back was moved here.

This veteran soldier who resisted the bazooka has made great contributions, and the power of his example is endless, and the soldiers have followed the example of this veteran soldier to attack at close range.

The firing points that can be easily solved are solved with explosives, and the direct fire from a distance of several tens of meters is carried out with a rocket launcher that is laborious or has large casualties, although the number of rockets is not much, but it is felt that it is very effective, and there is no need for people to send explosives, and the degree of attack is significantly accelerated, and the casualties are also reduced.

In this way, the defenders on the mountain couldn't stand it, and originally thought that with this mountain full of fortifications, they could deal with the People's Liberation Army for a long time, as long as they could hold out for a week, everything would be fine, even if there was no time to support in Yan'an City, Chief Hu's troops should have arrived.

But what I didn't expect was that just a few hours later, the fortified position was shaken, and the communist army that attacked did not know which unit of the Eighth Route it was, and the firepower was not like that, although the communist army in the northwest had defeated Baoji and snatched back a large number of weapons and ammunition, but it was not so strong as to do so, what can I do?

On the top of Laoshan Mountain, there is a core large blockhouse, the reinforced concrete outer wall can be more than a meter thick, and there are hundreds of people inside, not only the regimental headquarters of the Laoshan defenders is here, but also a heavily armed guard company also lives together.

A staff officer hurriedly came over and reported: "Tuanza, the communist army's offensive is very fierce, and the firepower is also very fierce, and the brothers have suffered too many casualties to withstand it. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, tell me straight, where is the communist army?" The head of the regiment asked through gritted teeth.

"Tuanza, you're halfway up the mountain, you can think of a way."

"***, where did the communist army jump out of such a powerful unit, listening to the movement, there are dozens of anti-aircraft machine guns just to cover the attack, not counting those mortars that are bombing everywhere, and there is no such equipment in our ** troops, how can the communist army have? It's really evil. ”

The Kuomintang regiment commander who guarded Lao Mountain was an officer from a professional class, and he was not full of food for nothing (most of the Kuomintang officers graduated from military academies, and to be honest, the level of transformation was much better than that of the officers of the People's Liberation Army, but the victory of the war was composed of a variety of factors, and it was useless to have a high level), and the approximate number of anti-aircraft machine guns was heard from the sound of the shooting of the weapons of the attacking troops of the independent regiment, and he should be a guy with two hits.

The chief of staff came over and whispered: "Tuanzuo, have you forgotten Baoji?" There is everything in Baoji's warehouse, and the communist army is not surprised that the weapons are powerful. ”

Kuomintang regiment leader: "Xu Bao deserves to die, Pei Changhui deserves to die, Ma Jiajun deserves to die, a battle with superior troops was defeated by them, misleading the party and the country, misleading the party and the country." ”

Chief of Staff: "Tuanzuo, getting angry is not the way, do you think we are asking for some support from Yan'an City?" Even if it is enough to give us two more companies of troops, should the least of them also provide us with a little artillery firepower? ”

"Support? My chief of staff, look at the city of Yan'an, it's all a pot of porridge, who still cares about us? We are a regular regiment, not a miscellaneous security team, when we were about to go to the position, the commander strengthened us by more than 1,000 people, this is a reinforced regiment of more than 3,000 people, and there are fortifications with dangerous terrain, only a few hours to ask the commander for reinforcements? There are no reinforcements, and I have to be scolded. ”

"Artillery fire is even more impossible, do you see that from the beginning of the communist attack to the present, our artillery fire has been waved? Even if they weren't blown up by the communist fire, they were scared, and they couldn't even wear pants. ”

Chief of Staff: "What then?" The communist army is getting closer and closer, and we can't sit and wait for death, right? ”

"Don't be so discouraged, the communist army has just reached the halfway up the mountain, and it will take a while to attack the top of the mountain, we will take this opportunity to gather all the forces that can be mobilized by the regiment headquarters to form a reserve, led by you or me directly, and counterattack the communist army at a critical time, let's hold on for a while, the planes in Xi'an will arrive at dawn, and we will use the advantage of the air force to recapture the lost position."

The commander of the Kuomintang regiment was indeed a good hand, and so far he was not intimidated by the fierce attacks of the PLA, but used the time to organize a temporary combat unit, ready to make a sudden counterattack when our army was forced to the top of the mountain.

I have to say that the enemy's move is still very vicious, because of the continuous combat of our army's attack troops, when they are about to reach the top of the mountain, they must be very tired, and their physical and defensive psychology will also decline, at this time, if the enemy is condescending and suddenly comes suddenly, it is really dangerous, and it is very likely to be counterattacked by the enemy without preparation.

Once the troops are counterattacked, the consequences are very severe, not only will the efforts and costs paid be useless, but they will also drag down the attack of the large army and affect the entire campaign.

It is said that Li Yuming, who went around to the back mountain, and the soldiers of the two platoons have been lying on the grass and have not moved, and when our army's artillery fire began to attack, Li Yuming still did not give a battle order, and the soldiers scratched their ears and cheeks anxiously, not knowing what the company commander meant.

It was not until the first package of explosives went off and the Kuomintang mountain troops began to shoot that Li Yuming led the soldiers to the bottom of the mountain and began to climb with the help of various mountaineering tools prepared in advance.

This is the result of Li Yuming's meticulous care, fighting is not a child's play, it will kill people, the soldiers of the two platoons are only more than 80 people, if you want to achieve the greatest combat effect, you must use the method of surprise attack, otherwise even if you fight out, it will not play a big role.

The first package of explosives was started by the fifth battalion, and when the three attack battalions began to attack together, the entire area around Laoshan was enveloped by a huge roar, and the sound of explosive shooting and explosives made the sound of the small movements of the soldiers in the back mountains seem insignificant.

The first to start climbing was Li Yuming, the company commander, who quickly climbed up with a bundle of long ropes under the watchful eyes of the soldiers at the bottom of the mountain.

There is an old saying that there are all kinds of birds when the forest is big, and it's really right, there are more people in the independent regiment, and there are more capable people, but if you want to talk about the means of mountaineering, you have to say Li Yuming, the company commander of the guard company.

We have also explained before, this guy liked this when he was at home, and after he arrived in the army, he regarded this as a kind of ability and practiced it often, and later even the people in the reconnaissance battalion often asked him to do demonstrations, which is also the reason why Zhang Jinsong did not do much with him when Li Yuming was fighting for the task, Zhang Jinsong also understood psychologically, no one in the reconnaissance battalion was Li Yuming's opponent when it came to the ability to climb the mountain, and it was better to hand over this task to the guard company.

Ten minutes passed, twenty minutes passed, and I don't know how long I waited, and finally a rope was thrown from the top of the mountain.

It was much easier to do with the rope, these young men climbed up the rope one by one with weapons, equipment and explosives, and the company commander usually took everyone to see that the training content was useful, and it didn't take long for more than 80 people to climb up.

But when we got to the top of the mountain, everyone was a little dumbfounded, the black and flickering top of the mountain was occupied by a mess of fortifications and pillboxes, and even the southeast and northwest were a little unclear.

The soldiers lying on the top of the hill looked at their company commander Li Yuming one by one, and the soldiers took it for granted that the company commander must have a way, and he would figure out what to do.

Commanders during the war years really can't do anything if they don't have real skills, and they have to come up with a way at a critical time, in fact, Li Yuming is the same as everyone else, and he can't figure out what to do? But if you don't understand, you must come up with a way, it's definitely not okay to just fight like this, you have to find a way to give the enemy a ruthless, what kind of action can you take to hurt the enemy?

has been with Li Yong for a long time, Li Yuming's head is also alive, Li Yuming's brain lying on the ground keeps turning, how does the regiment commander usually command? What does he do when things are tough?

Li Yuming, who kept thinking of a way, felt that his mind suddenly lit up, yes, it takes seven inches to fight the snake, and it only works if it hits the vital point, and the most important place for the Kuomintang guarding Laoshan must be their command structure, as long as the enemy's regimental headquarters is knocked out, didn't the regiment commander take everyone to the Kuomintang corps headquarters during the Xifu Campaign? This time, we will do the same with the regiment commander, and we will also give such a guy to the enemy.

Thinking of this, Li Yuming whispered an order to the soldiers beside him: "Pass down, order the troops to search for the advance, the target, the enemy's regimental command post." ”

Li Yuming's orders were passed down one by one by the soldiers, and each platoon poked out two battle groups at the front to search and advance.

The soldiers cautiously crawled forward on the ground little by little, and a soldier beside Li Yuming couldn't help but ask: "Company commander, when do you have to climb here?" How do we know where the enemy's command post is? The further I crawled, the more confused I became, and now that you asked me to go back, I couldn't find a place. ”

Li Yuming knocked on the soldier's head: "Look at your little bit of interest, if the enemy doesn't tell us, won't we think about it ourselves?" What the head of the regiment usually says, you eat? Isn't it easy to find the enemy's command post, the largest place, the most people, and the most officials, it must be it. ‘
