Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Hu Qingshan's estimate was correct, there were more than 800 thugs involved in the rebellion around Yiwu, and this was already all the forces that the local reactionary landlords and herdsmen could gather, including all the so-called district and township self-defense forces. (None.) , pop-ups
Outside the county seat, the former county magistrate Ai Bai's face was excited, and this guy was doing combat mobilization with a shy face:
"Brothers, do you hear the rush in the city, this shows a problem, what is the problem? The cavalry company in the city has already moved, they are fighting fiercely with the communist army, we are now about to attack the communist army in the city, and the cavalry company should cooperate with the outside, strike while the iron is hot, and destroy these two or three hundred communist Balang soldiers and baby soldiers, Yiwu is still ours, brothers, kill me, kill a communist army Lao Tzu rewarded ten sheep and ten oceans. โ
At the instigation of Ai Bai Belly and other bandit leaders, the bandits who participated in the riot howled and rushed towards the positions held by the People's Liberation Army in Yiwu City, they were very confident that with the assistance of the cavalry company, there was no problem in dealing with such a little PLA, and now was a good opportunity to make meritorious service and ask for rewards from their superiors, and they must rush forward, only a few scheming people thought that the situation was not quite right, because they all knew that the cavalry company that wanted to cooperate with them could not have any artillery, but there was obviously the sound of artillery shells exploding from the county town. This shows that it was the artillery of the People's Liberation Army who participated in the battle, and there was no good way to deal with the artillerymen.
However, this is just the idea of a few individuals, and the vast majority of bandits think that their victory is in sight, isn't it, the matter is clear, there are several times the number of personnel of the People's Liberation Army, and there are cavalry companies that should be combined inside and outside, will there be any unexpected situations?
But the accident really happened, in Yiwu City, on the positions held by the People's Liberation Army, the rebellion did not cause panic to the soldiers of the first and second platoons, on the contrary, the soldiers were still very excited, because there was finally a battle to fight, but it had been idle for several months, and the bullets were about to rust.
Wipe the gun again. After reinforcing the fortifications, preparing enough ammunition, and blowing a few cows and smoking a cigarette in between battles, the old soldiers didn't seem to pay any attention to the bandits.
The expressions of the soldiers in the first and second platoons also affected the people of the task force, and the originally slightly panicked mood also stabilized. Seeing that the big war was approaching, the soldiers were still joking with each other. The students also learned in a decent way, and some of them even took the weapons they had just received and went around looking for advice on how to use them.
Deputy battalion commander Hu Qingshan calmly ordered: "The first platoon is defending in the front, and the second platoon is detouring behind the enemy, striving to defeat the enemy in a battle." โ
Hu Qingshan knew that the rebel bandits were several times more than theirs. In terms of numbers, he has an absolute superiority, but so what, we still have to be the main force in the war, and his battle plan is to use a platoon as a frontal defensive force. Withstanding the enemy's attack, the four squads of the second platoon were divided into left and right wings, detouring from the flanks and back, going around behind the enemy's buttocks, and firing on three sides at the same time, severely inflicting heavy damage on the bandit brigade.
Hu Qingshan's plan did not have anything to do with the task force, so the task force of more than 50 people had a lot of opinions, and after Captain Zhang was wounded, they nominated several representatives to find Hu Qingshan together.
One of the team members said: "Deputy battalion commander, we also have fighters in the team. It's not all students, and it's not too inappropriate for any task, and you won't be able to meet people in the future. โ
Another representative said: "What's wrong with the students, you are not born to fight with the enemy. The main forces looked down on the idea of the local zhรจngfu or not. โ
The students have a lot of truths, and they have buttoned a few big hats to Hu Qingshan before they have done anything, and Hu Qingshan, who has no choice, has no choice but to let the personnel of their work team be the reserves, which can be used at a critical time. However, if you really want to use these students. The battle is only uncertain.
Fortunately, there is such a supply depot in Iwu, which is not only fully equipped with food and ammunition, but also some weapons, so it is not difficult to temporarily arm the students.
Yiwu County is not big, but this supply depot established during the Kuomintang period is not small, and when the waiting team officially received it, many soldiers said strange things together, hehe, no wonder the Kuomintang cavalry company played with us so much, it turned out that it was reluctant, look at this guy, it is simply what he wants, eat and drink enough, Chiang Kai-shek is really worthy of being our transport captain, sent, really sent.
The supplies stored in the warehouse were mainly food and ammunition, plus some firearms.
Food and ammunition were sufficient, but there were not many guns, there were hundreds of rifles, and the heavier firepower was six Czech light machine guns, and the students could not use light machine guns, according to Hu Qingshan's order, each person was issued a rifle.
The students were satisfied, and they went to the supply station to get their weapons one by one, but some of them stood in Hu Qingshan's command post and didn't leave.
Who are these people, they are the soldiers of the machine gun squad, of course Hu Qingshan knows what they mean, before coming to Yiwu, the battalion commander Li Jiangguo strengthened a mortar squad and a heavy machine gun squad for the first and second platoons, and in the previous battle, the artillery squad was at the beginning of its edge, and blew up the cavalry company in a mess, which can be regarded as a first achievement, but the heavy machine gun squad did not fire a single shot, and there was nothing to do with the two squads in the battle plan that had just been arranged.
The squad leader of the machine gun squad couldn't help it, and shouted loudly: "Deputy battalion commander, we didn't even fire a single shot in the cavalry, we understand, we can't do it to clean up those nests and waste, but now there is still no task at all, this is not right, you have to make our heavy machine gun hot." โ
Seeing that a few guys didn't leave, Hu Qingshan laughed: "Okay, I know what you mean, why I didn't send you out It's very simple, the current enemy situation is unknown, so our strength can't be fully exposed, your two squads are our heavy firepower strike units, and you have to save them for the most critical moment, go back and prepare, you will fight." โ
Mortars and heavy machine guns are one of the hole cards in Hu Qingshan's hand, of course, they can't all be used at once, Hu Qingshan thinks that with the strength of one or two platoons can completely block the attack of the bandits.
Of course, Hu Qingshan's arrangement still makes people a little suspicious, especially those comrades in the local areas who have not dealt with the Duli Brigade, because some of them are combatants, and they do not blindly trust the main force like the students, but doubt whether Hu Qingshan's deployment is correct, and the rebel thugs are several times larger than the PLA defenders in Yiwu, why do they still take aggressive attack operations when the strength of the troops is not equal.
Hu Qingshan, who had no choice, had to give them a simple explanation, according to the interrogation of the prisoners, there were more than 800 bandits in the Yiwu area, although the number was several times that of ours, but they were all temporary patchwork forces, but they were just some rabble, plus the weapons and equipment were not on the same level as ours, so the combat effectiveness was at least halved.
Second, most of these rebellious bandits are accustomed to fighting immediately, but if they want to attack Yiwu County, they must give up their strengths and use infantry tactics to fight street battles, which is to use their own shortcomings to attack our strengths, so the combat effectiveness is reduced by half.
Third, looking at us on the other hand, the officers and men are single-minded, their morale is strong, their weapons and equipment are excellent, and their ammunition is sufficient.
In Hu Qingshan's simple explanation, the large-scale attack of the bandits began, and hundreds of rioting bandits rushed in from outside the county seat, holding all kinds of weapons in their hands, no tactics, no formation, no fire cover, just swarming like flies.
Hu Qingshan calmed down, the commander's special shell gun was pinned to his waist, put the submachine gun in his hand on the earthen platform on his chest, several bullet clips full of bullets were placed in the most convenient position, and the boxes of grenades were uncovered, telling the soldiers not to shoot without his order.
The indiscriminate bandits were getting closer and closer, and these riotous bandits howled and screamed, as if in this way they would be emboldened, some bareheaded, some bare-chested, some with all kinds of tattoos on their bare arms, and they burned talismans before they set off, so that they were said to be invulnerable.
If you burn the talisman and draw a tattoo, you will be invulnerable?? Isn't this nonsense, but some people believed in this set at the time, but the soldiers in the first and second platoons looked at this qiฤ with cold expressions, the more stupid the bandits, the better, the more stupid they were, the faster they died, and after a few minutes they knew what it meant to be powerful.
A little soldier was still making a bet with the squad leader next to him, saying that he could shoot the leading bandit in the head with a single shot at a distance of two white meters, so he hit the shirtless guy with tattoos all over his body.
The old soldier replied with a smile, okay, after the order of the deputy battalion commander was given, he left the most arrogant guy to the little soldier to open up.
Two hundred meters is already within the effective range of infantry light weapons, and it is completely possible to fire at this distance, and the large number of Czech light machine guns equipped with the Duli brigade can completely knock down a large number of bandits first, but the deputy battalion commander Hu Qingshan did not give the order to open fire for a long time, but only whispered to the soldiers to pass on his command: "Don't worry, steady, get closer, put the enemy closer." โ
Every army has a tradition, and the Duli Brigade is no exception, adhering to the consistent style of the old Eighth Route Army, Hu Qingshan and his soldiers are accustomed to close combat and close combat, and always feel that it is only comfortable to put the enemy in front of him to do it.
Seeing that the bandits' brigade was getting closer and closer, there was no preliminary preparation for artillery fire, no heavy fire to cover the attack, and there were no tactics.
