Chapter 8 Mountain Attack II

Several attack battalions of the Independent Regiment used a large number of explosives packs to blast the fortified positions of the Kuomintang one by one, and there was no other way, and the defenders had to take advantage of the terrain too much, so they had to go head-on, and the dull sound of explosions continued one after another.

It's just that the independent regiment began to attack from three directions at the same time, and the Kuomintang defenders on the hill could not gather their forces, and behind each platoon there were a large number of anti-aircraft machine guns and heavy machine guns to cover the fire, and a dense rain of bullets and water poured water to open the way in front.

The power of a few heavy machine guns or anti-aircraft machine guns was terrifying, and the rainstorm of bullets beat the Kuomintang troops to the point that they could not raise their heads, and they occupied Yan'an for more than a year, and the time for the wind and rain passed, and the Kuomintang troops and the People's Liberation Army also tasted the taste of being suppressed.

The shooting hole of the pillbox is the key object of the soldiers, the battalion's heavy machine gun shoots non-stop, the Makqin is water-cooled, and there is no need to change the barrel for long-term shooting (the Czech type is not good, if the barrel is not changed after two hundred bullets are shot, the bullet will have to fall on the face, and the crooked handle of the magazine type ammunition supply captured from the hands of the little devil is even more nothing), the ammunition of each box is more than three hundred, and the continuity of firepower is also very good, and the small pits around the shooting hole of the pillbox are punched.

The firepower of the Kuomintang defenders was knocked out as soon as it came up, and then a shooter was replaced without holding on a few times and was *dropped, and no one dared to go up if a few were knocked out in a row, and the commander could not have an order, and any order was not as important as a small life, and some people would say, dare not carry out the order can be shot? It depends on when, when the battle is in full swing, shooting a soldier may cause a mutiny, and besides, the soldier also has a gun in his hand, so if he is in a hurry, he may bring you a guy.

The fire of the defending side could not be continuous, which relieved a lot of pressure on the attacking troops in front, and the soldiers kept shouting: "Explosives pack, hurry up on the explosives pack." The fighters in the back kept sending the weapons and ammunition needed in front.

When Li Yong formed the troops, he gave a lot of consideration to the problem of fighting alone, and the biggest difficulty in fighting alone was the logistical supply, so each battalion had a baggage platoon specially responsible for logistics, and the regiment set up a baggage battalion, and then the benefits were seen, and less than two hours after the battle began, the ammunition in the hands of the soldiers began to run out of urgency, especially the explosives, which were used as the main weapon, and the consumption was very large.

There were no long-range weapons (direct-aiming weapons) to deal with fixed targets, the 92nd infantry artillery and the 75th wild mountain artillery were all transferred by the column, and the soldiers had to use people to send explosives up.

However, because each combat battalion had a baggage platoon dedicated to logistics, the ammunition of the attacking troops appeared to be sufficient, and the troops approached the top of the hill little by little.

With a large amount of ammunition and cover fire from constant firing, the battle progressed fairly smoothly, but in this way the casualties of the independent regiment were also increasing, and the sacrificed and wounded fighters were carried down one by one (those who rushed back on the stretcher were still alive, and those who rushed forward were sacrificed).

It was too difficult to have no casualties in the dark night's battle, seeing the soldiers who were constantly being carried down, Li Yong's anger increased little by little, and the last thing he could see was that his soldiers were killed and injured by the enemy's fire, although this was also a helpless thing.

Li Yong, who was nervously observing the progress of the battle, suddenly remembered a question, in the previous stage, the combat independent regiment captured some bazookas used to deal with tanks and armored targets, and now is the time to use these weapons, these guys have already been equipped with combat units at the poles of each battalion, and it stands to reason that they have formed combat effectiveness, why haven't you seen or heard these units using them for more than two hours in this battle?

The voice of regiment commander Li Yong came from the walkie-talkies of the three attack battalions: "Why don't you use bazookas when the casualties are so large, don't you have a bazooka squad in each battalion?" ”

In fact, Li Yong really blamed these commanders, the previous stage was indeed the capture of some anti-tank rocket launchers, and each combat battalion also organized an anti-tank squad specially prepared to fight tanks, but the number of captured was too small, and what was even more precious was that there were not many anti-tank rockets, and each battalion regarded a few rockets as a treasure at the bottom of the box like a caretaker's eyeball, and was reluctant to shoot even a live ammunition during training, and kept it for use in case it encountered the enemy's tanks in the future.

Since the formation of the independent regiment, it has not officially fought with the enemy's tanks, and these commanders from poor eight roads feel that with these treasures, there are more hole cards at the critical time.

Hearing the commander's report that he was not willing to use it, Li Yong was angry and funny, and shouted with a walkie-talkie: "What is there to be reluctant to, the lives of our soldiers are more important than any weapons, take them and kill the enemy, as long as we win the battle, we can't even save our lives if we lose the battle." ”

The walkie-talkie of the independent regiment is a connected channel, Li Yong shouted this and several battalions heard it very clearly, the third battalion commander Ma Changsheng and the fourth battalion commander Ning Jinshan and He Cuihua were all ruthless, since the regiment commander had an order, then use it, and several anti-tank squads directly under the battalion headquarters immediately rushed over.

The squad leader who rushed up discussed with the commander at the front (the platoon commander of the attack platoon) that it was better to use explosives as much as possible, and it was better to save it when it was not critical.

However, the bazooka squad really showed its power as soon as it came up, and the main defensive force of Laoshan was the firepower points of various types of pillboxes built in the mountain, the smaller ones were only a few people inside, and the larger ones were a squad, and the big bunkers were defended by platoon-level units.

The advantage of this arrangement is that it can give a large number of casualties to the attacking troops, and there is no way to come up without killing my firepower, but the disadvantage is also fatal, and it can only be in a passive position, and there is no way to organize an effective counterattack (the manpower is too scattered), and if there is no way to organize a counterattack, it will not be able to grasp the initiative on the battlefield, and without the initiative, there will be no victory, but it will last longer.

This kind of formation is a good way to deal with the Northwest Field Army a year ago, the firepower of the troops at that time was too weak, and if you want to take such a pillbox, you have to exchange the lives of many soldiers for it, and it is estimated that it will not take you to the top of the mountain to run out of people, but now it is a bit outdated to use this set, especially the independent regiment, the firepower of other troops is not a little bit fierce.

Since rockets are very valuable, they have to save a little, and the soldiers choose the most powerful heart bunker to start with, and even practice with them.

The fighter who resisted the bazooka was a little nervous, usually training is training, fighting and training are two things, the reason for the nervousness is not that the soldier is afraid of death, but that he is afraid of emptying the few precious bullets he has.

I'm afraid that I will be empty, so I have to touch it closer, and when I get closer, I will be a little bigger, touch it, touch it, keep touching it, crawl forward on the ground, and climb until it is only a few dozen meters away from a large pillbox, and the fighter feels almost the same, and the pillbox to be attacked at this distance is much larger than the tank model during the usual training.

The large cement bunker is surrounded by a number of large and small shooting holes, which can not only reduce the bomb area but also expand the shooter's field of vision (the shooting hole of the pillbox is not straight, nor is it square, the blockhouse has to increase the thickness if it wants to resist the attack, but the thickness increases the shooter's line of sight is very limited, and the dead angle of the shot is also large, so in order to expand the shooter's line of sight, the outside of the hole must be made larger).

Resisting the bazooka, these soldiers who are regarded as very precious weapons by the cadres and fighters of the independent regiment, of course, must be very psychologically very strong guys, to put it bluntly, that is, at least you have to be not afraid of death, this kind of not afraid of death is not that you yourself say that I am not afraid of death, it has to be evaluated by the soldiers after each major battle, so these soldiers are all braver than the gourds.

In order to make this first rocket accurate, the soldier who climbed up first had already put death out of his stomach, and just wanted to lean forward a little more so that he could have a greater grasp.

The people behind looked at this soldier nervously, in order to prevent the enemy from showing him, the covering fire was firing fiercely, and he stopped when he was only more than 30 meters away from this big bunker, leaned against the back of a big stone, exposed his half-pulled body, put the bazooka on the ground, took a long breath, aimed at the fire, and "whoosh" a rocket spun and shot out.

Under everyone's gaze, the rocket drilled through the shooting hole of the pillbox like an eye, and then there was an explosion, and I saw that the big pillbox shook a few times, and a stream of green smoke came out of the shooting holes around it, and there was no movement anymore.

If you want to kill such a big bunker, one bullet will not work, and it will take a few bullets to blow up this big guy, but the soldiers of these independent regiments are too bold (the soldiers of the People's Liberation Army at that time are not small), and they did not fire until a distance of about 30 meters, and this treasure bullet was directly hit by this veteran through the shooting hole.

The attacking groups behind saw clearly what to do if they did not seize this opportunity, and several fighters jumped up and rushed forward, rushed to the bottom of the large pillbox, and threw a few grenades into it.

By the time the soldiers found and opened the secret door of the big bunker, there was no one alive inside, or not a single intact person, and a rocket and a few grenades had blown it up, and the closed environment could increase the power of the explosion.

This time, a large bunker was captured, and the soldiers immediately cleaned up the dead inside, and then relied on this big guy to attack in all directions.
