Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
After holding back for several days, Gao Xiang's heavy artillery battalion finally received the order, and several hundred shells fell in the first wave, which were high-explosive grenades specially used for anti-personnel personnel, and the triggering fuse on the warhead sounded when it touched a foreign object.
The bandits' ranks were too dense, and the end of being covered by artillery fire without the slightest preparation was very miserable, and a heavy artillery shell would clear up a range of several tens of meters, and the shock wave, shrapnel, and even the crumbling stones became weapons that would kill people, and life could not survive within the range of artillery fire.
Boom, boom, boom, the shells exploded one after another, the craters one after another, and the dust that was blown up by the shells flew into the air dozens of meters high.
The bandits on the march were suddenly blown up, people and horses ran in all directions, and the bandits in the area near the shell explosion point shouted in horror, and those who were not killed ran all over the mountains like wasps that had blown up their nests.
Yao Lebos, the bandit's No. 2 person, looked at the bandits running around and muttered, "It's over, it's over." His wife, Feng Mengli, was quite sober, and pulled Yao Lebos over: "Hurry up, if you don't leave, you will have to let the communist artillery bombs blow up." โ
Yao Lebos ran away, ran away without a trace with his wife and the people around him who could be retracted, and threw hundreds of thousands of bandits to Usman, at this time he could no longer think of any struggle for power and profit, just thinking about saving his life.
At the critical time, the role of the big bandit leader Usman was still greater than that of Yao Lebos, and the old bandit kept roaring in the interval between the shell explosions: "Don't mess up, disperse the team." โ
But at this time, the whole world was filled with the sound of shells exploding, and who could know what he was shouting.
Gao Xiang commanded the artillery to use anti-explosive bombs to attack with a burst of firepower, and then replaced them with incendiary bombs to continue the attack, and the shells were blown up into a sea of fire wherever they went, and after the sea of fire were charred corpses, they thought they were very powerful and very good. The bandits who can claim to be the king in the land of Xinjiฤng finally know what a powerful People's Liberation Army is.
Where have these stupid turtles who have never read a book, never gone to school, and grew up in a relatively closed environment have seen such a scene, and they panicked under the blow of the first wave of firepower.
The eldest young master, Sheld, rode his horse and ran to Usman's side: "Father, the team is out of control, my opinion is." What do you think of everyone dispersed and retreated, and then gathered at the designated place? โ
Before Usman could agree, he heard a strange-sounding sound from the direction of the county seat of Iwu, as if there was a metallic crash in the midst of the sound of a powerful engine. Kalala, Kalala.
As long as the soldiers from the regular army who have fought a major battle can hear it. This is the sound that comes from the sortie of armored units. Simply put, it's the sound of tanks walking in clusters.
But the bandits don't understand this, and the hundreds of thousands of turtles have never heard of tanks, and most of them have never heard of tanks, and their thinking is still stuck in a few decades ago.
Sheld's head turned around and was about to run the way he came, saying that he wanted to see what was making the noise. But he was dragged by Usman.
Just because the bandits don't know doesn't mean that Usman doesn't know, this old bandit still has some knowledge, and he grabbed Sheldman, who wanted to check: "Don't look at it, it's the tank unit of the communist army that has come up." Yao Lebos did not tell a lie, the communist army is indeed equipped with tanks and heavy artillery, so it will withdraw according to the method you said. โ
Under the pressure of the PLA's strong firepower, the Usman bandits besieging Yiwu chose the method of dispersing and retreating, and suddenly the entire surrounding area of Yiwu was filled with bandits of all sizes, small groups of dozens of people, and large groups of three or five hundred people, like groups of lost dogs, running wildly in all directions.
Usman and his son Sheldman could have ten minutes after leaving, and the PLA tank unit arrived, and more than 100 tanks and armored vehicles turned the entire area to be attacked into a hell of death, and the running bandit cavalry was swept off their horses by the vehicle-mounted machine guns on the tanks.
Li Yuming, the instructor of the tank battalion, was in the same mood as Gao Xiang, he had been waiting for the brigade commander to give an order for a long time, and Li Yuming was angry when he saw the rampant appearance of the bandits outside the city, and he fucking wanted to eat our entire Duli brigade, is that something you bandits can think about? It's sinful to think about.
After the battle began, the tank battalion looked extremely fierce, Li Yuming used the on-board intercom system to tell the soldiers that it was useless to take prisoners, and that they would rush up and kill them all.
A corpse, a place of blood and mud, the tank is a one-sided torture of the cavalry, plus the soldiers deliberately did it, the bandits killed by the tank battalion did not even have a few corpses left, in the words of the instructor Li Yuming, anyway, it is also dead, just crush it as fertilizer, and save the second time.
Under the ferocious blows of artillery and tank crews, the bandits, who were several times larger than the Duli brigade, could no longer retreat in an orderly manner, but fled in a hurry like wild dogs that had been frightened.
Li Yong wanted this effect, since there was no way to wipe out the bandits, he had to inflict as many casualties on them as possible, disrupt their orderly retreat, and then the Duli Brigade was taking advantage of the chaos to take advantage of the situation.
Why do you say that you have to take advantage of the chaos? Isn't the Duli Brigade an opponent of the bandits? Of course not, but in any case, the bandits also have a scale of more than 100,000 people, although the Duli Brigade has given a lot of casualties to the enemy in a few days, but the casualties of the bandits still account for a small part of the total, the vast majority of the bandits' strength is still there, if the troops go out of the city indiscriminately, it is very likely that there will be large casualties.
Bandits are also human beings, they also have brains, you want to kill them, they still want to kill you, bandits are not holding burning sticks in their hands, they can also kill people, the Duli brigade is almost the strongest mobile force in the whole field army, but this so-called mobile ability is still a certain difference.
Strong mobility only means that a unit can be quickly deployed in place, does not mean that it can fight on the move, the duli brigade with ten battalions, can fight on the march is only two battalions, a tank battalion and a reconnaissance battalion, not to mention, the tank battalion is the most powerful assault force of the duli brigade, as the king of land warfare, it is a combination of spear and shield, the reconnaissance battalion because all are small jeep marches, a large number of Czech can be used as vehicle-mounted machine guns, The remaining five infantry battalions that used trucks to travel were actually the later motorized infantry battalions, which only had the ability to maneuver and did not have the combat ability on the move, so don't look at the bandits running away, and the only ones who could chase and fight while fighting were only tank battalions and reconnaissance battalions.
It was precisely on the basis of the above-mentioned tactical thinking that Li Yong ordered the artillery to fire at a rapid rate, first to disrupt the bandits, and then to use the ferocious attacks of the tank men to dispel the bandits' resistance mentality, and only after achieving the goal did he order the troops in his hands to attack, and to chase after them, so as to maximize the results of the battle while reducing casualties, and we could not do the thing of killing 1,000 enemies and inflicting 800 self-losses.
How many troops can Li Yong take out to pursue? A tank battalion, a reconnaissance battalion, a cavalry battalion reinforced by the Fifth Army, and two cavalry regiments ambushed outside Yiwu were all the forces that Li Yong could use to start the battle while on the march.
At the same time as the tank battalion and the reconnaissance battalion rushed forward, Li Yong ordered the cavalry battalion of the Fifth Army and the two cavalry regiments that had rushed over from the main force to attack immediately, follow behind the bandit brigade, and cut the meat down from the tail one by one.
The total number of troops chasing after them is only a few thousand, and the bandits who escaped exceeded 100,000 people, so even if they pursue, they must be careful.
The two cavalry regiments that rushed over from the main force were old troops, and the riders were also old soldiers, and they had already arrived near Yiwu, but they were ordered not to act without permission, for this reason, the soldiers of the two regiments were very unhappy, and they subconsciously thought that the Duli Brigade looked down on them a little, why put their two regiments outside the city and did not move, and the Duli Brigade could fight in full swing.
Fortunately, the commanders and political commissars of the two regiments are all understanding people, they know their own affairs, and the troops are very old, but when they are cavalrymen, they are novices, and thousands of new cavalrymen and hundreds of thousands of old bandits are fighting hard? What can be spelled out?
Later, the Duli Brigade suddenly exerted its strength and beat the bandits to pieces with heavy artillery and tanks, and only then did they receive an order from the Duli Brigade to pursue them.
The two regiment commanders who received the order fluttered their eyebrows, this task is good, don't look at the young age of the brigade commander of the Duli Brigade, but he has a lot of experience, and the order is not only prepared in time but also very much in line with the current situation of the two cavalry regiments.
What are the two newly formed cavalry regiments missing? Lacking combat experience after becoming a cavalry, lacking fighting skills on horseback, the tasks given to them by the Duli Brigade are simply a bit of a charcoal in the snow, first, they can fight bandits, second, they can train soldiers, and third, they can reduce casualties.
The fleeing bandits lost their fighting spirit, and just gave the two cavalry regiments a chance to disrupt the battle, and more than 3,000 warriors rushed out with a scream, no matter what the damn could ride on the horse, they chased after it and slashed with their knives.
Speaking of the work on this horse, thousands of new cavalry are far worse than bandits, if it is in a frontal conflict, they may not be able to take advantage of it at all, but now the bandits are in a state of escape, and their courage is about to be frightened by tanks and artillery, so they still have the heart to fight against the soldiers, and the soldiers are victorious in the battle with high will, chasing and slashing.
The two new cavalry regiments were like two iron pincers, hinging off the tails of the fleeing bandits one by one, and then eating them bite by bite, and in this way, the cavalry, which did not dare to compliment them, achieved good results. (To be continued......)
