Although the first attack was tentative, the casualties were a little too great, and they were blown back by a shell before they even touched the main position.
None of the subordinates dared to speak up when they were scolded, especially the few bandit leaders who were in charge of going out to investigate, and they were even more frightened and trembling, they all knew that the angry Usman would kill, this guy was moody, and he didn't care if you were a cronie or not.
The information of the People's Liberation Army in the Yiwu area was all heard by them, and they also reported it to Usman, and if they wanted to kill their heads, they had to kill them first.
Several bandit leaders who were responsible for listening to intelligence were still afraid and did not understand, isn't it just a brigade of the People's Liberation Army, five or six thousand people, or more than six or seven thousand, and the weapons and equipment are probably equipped in their minds, and the equipment of each battalion, company, and platoon should be the same, why are there so many small artillery pieces in a defensive direction? No, the PLA will concentrate the artillery of the whole brigade and use it, right? However, this is also impossible, in order to cause huge psychological pressure on the defenders, the bandits who surrounded Yiwu began to attack from several directions at the same time, and even the bandits themselves could not determine the direction of the main attack, let alone the People's Liberation Army
A few remnants of the defeated generals ran back, and seeing that the outfits were a few bandit leaders who led the charge, a guy came over and reported: "Commander, the communist artillery fire is too fierce, and hundreds of brothers still can't rush forward." ”
Usman said with a blue face: "Got it, go back and rest, and bandage the wound well." ”
It is indeed not easy to be a bandit leader, although I want to pull down a few guys who affect morale and kill them, but what comes out of my mouth is another word, and there is a comforting tone.
A bandit leader came over and said, "Commander." The artillery fire of the communist army is very fierce, but he thinks that it is impossible for the communist army defending on all sides to have such ferocious artillery fire on every side, and we can try to get several other directions to step up the attack, and start attacking at the same time to see what he can do. ”
This is a good solution, Usman nodded, and was about to issue an order, when a few war horses ran in the distance, and the knight on the horse rolled down in front of Usman: "Report to the commander." Our attacking men and horses were blocked by the superior artillery fire of the communist army, and not only did the team not rush forward, but also killed many brothers, and the corpses of men and horses were blown to pieces, which was too miserable. ”
Usman's head buzzed. In old age, this is a manifestation of increased blood pressure. Simultaneous attacks from several directions. They were all blown up by the communist army with artillery fire, what does this mean? It shows that there is a large amount of artillery stored in each defensive area of the PLA, and it is not simply to concentrate artillery in one direction.
launched an attack at the same time, but they were all blown back by artillery fire, how many artillery did the communist army have? Is it fifty doors? Or sixty doors? Isn't the Northwest Field Army of the communist army very poor, it is said that it is not much stronger than us. How could such a force suddenly exist with such a large number of artillery pieces? Usman's head was tumbling as he muttered to himself.
He didn't know that it was only the most basic battalion-level mortar fire of the PLA's Yiwu defenders that blew them up, and the heavy artillery was not used at all.
What the hell is going on. When did the poorest communist army become wealthy?
The eldest young master, Sheldman, came over: "Father, it seems that we have gnawed on a hard bone, I went to find out, according to the brothers, the communist artillery shells are as many as the sand in the Gobi Desert, and when they fall, they are in patches, and there is no place to hide at all, which is different from the way we only have a few small cannons, and each cannon only has a few shells." ”
"Hmph, hard bones have to be gnawed, there are more ants biting elephants, I don't believe their firepower can continue like this, notify the troops, prepare for battle, the leaders of each family must take care of their cubs, if anyone has half-heartedness, I can't spare him."
Sheld's eyes lit up: "What does father mean?" ”
While directing the bandits to continue the armament war, Usman also took advantage of an opportunity to impart knowledge to his son Sheldman:
"The Seventh Cavalry Division is a very good fighting force, and your sister Iliel is a heroic among women, and she has a very good way of commanding wars, but they were all eaten by the communist army, why is this? Some people think that the communist army is very strong, there is a whole brigade of troops, and it is reasonable to eat the seventh cavalry division, I don't want to say anything unreasonable and unreasonable, I only care about your sister Iriel, I care about how long the communist army will have to digest after eating the seventh cavalry division, there is a price to pay for eating a whole division, the communist army is not a god, a long-distance march, a long-distance run to attack Yiwu, how much ammunition can it carry? The firing method like the one just now consumes a lot of shells, and I want to see how long the communist army can hold out on to such attrition. ”
As if he suddenly understood or enlightened, Sheldman clenched the horsewhip in his hand: "Father, I understand your intentions, what should we do next?" ”
"Inform the leaders of the families to prepare the troops, and the next attack will begin immediately, tell them that they should put more thought into the battle, and do not put too close a line when charging, and open the straggler line, so as to reduce the casualties of the communist army's firepower to the attacking warriors."
The order was conveyed, and Usman asked the pre-planned bandit team to attack immediately, not giving the PLA in the defensive position a respite, but the bandits were still bandits in the end, even if they wanted to carry out Usman's order, they also made the team like a mess, and when the wounded were finally carried down and the attacking team was ready again, more than two hours had passed.
Looking at the messy team of subordinates, Usman, as the commander-in-chief, was also at a loss, it was this Suzhì, the bandits were not regular troops, it was already the best attitude to be able to come to Yiwu and the communist army on his orders to fight hard, and it was impossible to let them order and prohibit them like regular troops, even if they could do it in the future, it would be a matter of the future, and they did not have that ability at present.
But in any case, another attack of the bandits was ready, and with a whistle, the attack from the east, west, and south began, and having learned the lessons of the last time, the density of the bandits' attacking ranks in each direction was greatly reduced, and the straggler line was long.
It was still artillery fire falling from the sky, or shells raining down, but it is undeniable that the method adopted by Usman to reduce the density of personnel did play a certain role, and the casualties were much smaller than the previous attack.
Compared with the regular army, bandits have many shortcomings, weapons and tactics and discipline are far apart, but bandits also have their own advantages, bandits are crazy, and they dare to play with their lives at critical times.
Seeing that the casualties were much smaller when crossing the artillery fire, these bandits were excited, the communist army didn't look at the artillery fire, but in the end there were still too few people, as long as the method was right, they could rush up, and as long as they rushed up, they could fight one out of ten, and victory was not just light.
With this in mind, the charging bandit horse team increased their speed to the end, and the skilled bandit soldiers threw themselves on their horses, roaring and lunging.
But their joy was still a little too early, and if there were only such a little means, the PLA would not be called the PLA.
The Duli Brigade belongs to the Second Army of the People's Liberation Army, that is, the Second Column of the Old Northwest Field Army, which is a veteran unit of the People's Liberation Army with deep qualifications, and the Japanese army and the Kuomintang troops have been fighting non-stop for more than 20 years, and have accumulated rich experience in fighting more with less.
No sooner had the horses emerged from the artillery blockade than they plunged headlong into a pre-set minefield, a mine set up with countless grenades.
Two small wooden sticks stood upright against the ground, and between the two sticks there was a rope that could not be seen clearly, and the horse's hooves pulled the rope out with a casual trip, and behind the rope was a ring of fire of a grenade buried in the ground, and after a few seconds, a violent explosion sounded behind the rushing horse.
Fighters set up minefields by tying several grenades together and using cluster grenades to increase the power of the explosion, and now this method has been fully proven.
Boom, boom, there were huge explosions under the belly of the war horse, and the violent shock wave threw the war horse and the rider on horseback high, and then fell to the ground fiercely, and every time there was a loud noise, a large number of war horses and riders were swept down, and the exploding grenade blew the horse's belly open, cutting off the rider's limbs, and turning the explosion into a bloody area.
After entering the three hundred meters, Ning Jinshan, the commander of the fourth battalion, ordered the soldiers to shoot, of course, not with submachine guns, but with a large number of Type 38 rifles, as the commander of the first battalion, Ning Jinshan, also took a few guard soldiers to the forefront of the trench.
There are more than 1,000 people in an infantry battalion, which is quite a remarkable thing, and a smaller battle can't be fought by a battalion commander at all, so Ning Jinshan hasn't been to the forefront to participate in the battle for a long time.
As the recognized first shooter in the whole brigade, this is not a good thing, not participating in the battle for a long time, not only may the skills be reduced, but the most uncomfortable thing is that he really can't go to enjoy it in person, which is no less than an ordeal for Ning Jinshan, who is used to fighting.
This kind of torment became even more uncontrollable after listening to the combat report made by Hu Qingshan, the deputy commander of the first battalion, Hu Qingshan's guy can use a rifle to destroy so many "sheep" in the wind and snow and has made great contributions, can't he himself, in terms of shooting skills, although Hu Qingshan is not bad, but he is still a little worse than himself, and Ning Jinshan still has this point.
