506. The Art of War
In order to report his latest discovery to the Kwantung Army Headquarters as soon as possible, Yoshio Yoshida temporarily decided to give up reinforcements and return to the Hushitai Barracks, regardless of the doubts of the two squad leaders below. I didn't expect them to be here and there, but time was passing quickly.
As mentioned earlier, Meng Kaihua, deputy commander of the special operations brigade, led 12 mortars and completed 10 rapid fire at two targets, but he did not stay in place at all. Instead, the mortar was immediately put on horseback, and then, according to the predetermined combat jihua, galloped all the way north.
More than ten kilometers away, under the flying hooves of the war horse, it didn't take much effort to reach the destination! Shi Liancheng saw Meng Kaihua and others arrive, and a stone in his heart fell to the ground.
Without the slightest hesitation, Shi Liancheng gave the battle order: "Kaihua, you immediately lead the mortars to make a detour and set up positions about a kilometer south of the Hushitai barracks. 6 mortars are ready to bombard the barracks, and another 6 mortars are ready to strike at the reinforcing enemy! Regardless of the ammunition base, smash all the grenades you carry and retreat! ”
In order not to alarm the enemy, Meng Kaihua led the mortar team to detour more than three miles to the east, and then interspersed it to the north. When I arrived at the predetermined area, I just saw the little devil's reinforcements leaving the barracks. It was only when the little devil walked out of sight that the fighters hurriedly unloaded the mortar from their horses.
After more than half an hour of intense busyness, all the mortars finally completed the demarcation of the bombing area, and waited for the enemy to come up and deliver food.
The enemy walked out about two kilometers before suddenly stopping, and after about ten minutes, the whole group returned. Meng Kaihua knew that the battle had to begin, and if the enemy was allowed to approach, the artillery position would be exposed.
"All gunners pay attention, according to the set goal, shoot all grenades and open fire!"
This time, the mortars participated in the battle, and the ammunition base they carried was 24 grenades for each mortar determined by the Rehe Front. Previously, under the city of Mukden, there had been a rapid fire of ten shells, and now there were 14 grenades for each mortar.
The two squads that reinforced Fengtian City, less than 150 people. 6 mortars bombarded in turn, and the total number of grenades smashed was 84, and the average two little devils enjoyed more than one grenade!
The Hushitai Barracks is even worse, the total strength in it is less than 100 people, basically "Tong Su is not bullied", and everyone is rewarded with a grenade!
Meng Kaihua: They are not in a hurry, and shoot grenades according to a fixed rhythm. After each of the three rapid fires, there was a two-minute pause. The little devil thought that the bombing was over, and just got up, and the second round of three rapid fire came again! After repeating it three times, the little devil lay on the ground and did not dare to get up.
In this way, using the tactics of shelling with fiction and reality, Meng Kaihua and the others crushed the little devils in both directions to death, and they couldn't move at all in place.
Just stopped and stopped, and more than ten minutes passed in a blink of an eye. After these rounds of artillery fire, the more than 100 little devils who reinforced have lost a quarter, and the remaining 100 or so people are all disgraced.
With the sound of hurried horses' hooves, Meng Kaihua knew that he should retreat, so he shouted: "Zuihou's five rapid fire, retreat immediately after the fight!" ”
It turned out that according to the prior agreement, the grenade gunners destroyed the wolf dog pen of the little devil and dealt a blow to the enemy in Mukden City, and immediately turned around and headed north. If the little devil sends troops to reinforce him, he will give the little devil who came up with the reinforcement an unforgettable lesson.
The fundamental purpose of this series of actions was to attract all the attention of the enemy on the first line from Mukden to Tieling, so that the enemy would have no time to take care of other aspects of the situation, delay the time for the enemy to discover the true situation of the two prisons, and thus achieve the tactical goal of covering the safe retreat of the other two large troops.
Destroying the little devil's guard dog training center is a task that must be completed. At the same time, it also taught the enemy in several directions a lesson, creating a false impression that a large-scale battle was about to break out in an all-round way, so that the enemy could not understand our true intentions, resulting in errors in judgment and wasting resources in vain.
When the enemy finally set the war machine in motion and the surrounding forces began to move in full force, all our combat objectives had been achieved, and all the battles came to an abrupt end. The enemy swarms and does not know where the opponent is.
When the enemy settles down, it is only then that the most important target is discovered, and it is no longer known when it will be destroyed! At the same time as the enemy suddenly realized, it felt as if everything was a dream. Everything seems so unreal, but it's all the truth, you can't help but believe it.
This is the core of Bai Shujie's military guiding ideology: "Through the dislocation of time, create a spatial illusion, so as to achieve the purpose of covering up the truth of the battle." Giving your opponent the impression that the space is misaligned will create a huge obstacle for the enemy to make the right judgment and thus buy time for yourself. ”
The so-called spatial dislocation is to create a spectacular scene of thousands of troops galloping out through the ingenious battle combination of a few people. Make the enemy feel as if they are trapped in an illusory space, and everything in front of them seems to be a historical event happening in another parallel dimension!
Everything is real, but it looks so unreal, this is the real special combat team! It is also what Bai Shujie said, "Retreat in battle, fight in retreat!" Tactical skills.
War is an art! Art is all about beauty!
Since Shi Liancheng received the assessment questions from the boss Bai Shujie, he began to plan the various key points of the entire campaign, looking for the tandem elements between multiple isolated battles, and then forming a complete set of tactical combination actions. When people look back on this battle, it is as if they are listening to a smooth and passionate "battle symphony"!
Yin Mengwu and Bao Haitao, the front-line commanders who implemented tactics, did not understand the entire battle process. Their task was to complete the nodes they were responsible for beautifully, so as to evolve into a few notes in the "Battle Symphony" conceived by Shi Liancheng.
Therefore, after they completed the first round of combat missions, they relieved the siege of the prisoner cart that rushed out, and then turned over and rushed north to kill.
Unexpectedly, before reaching the edge of the battlefield, he had already heard the sound of artillery in front of him. They also thought that they were late for the fighter plane, so they hurried up.
23 people is 23 howitzers, the little devil is lying on the ground with five rapid fire from the mortar Zuihou, Yin Mengwu and Bao Haitao led the soldiers to quickly use the cover of the cannon, and have approached the core of the battlefield within 200 meters, reaching the best shooting distance of the howitzer.
However, it is not possible to shoot at this time, and it is necessary to wait until the shelling is over. Otherwise, the grenade spark that is shot out will be blown away by the shell, and it will not play the role of arson!
After previous battles, the fighters now have an idea of the power of napalm. With the afterglow of the artillery fire, the soldiers had already found the target they were going to focus on next, and then prepared for Zuihou in a hurry.
"Everyone, pay attention, everyone will retreat immediately after shooting two grenades, and immediately return to the secret camp to summarize the battle and accept Zuihou's assessment!"
Anyway, the explosion sounded, and Yin Mengwu took advantage of this gap to explain: "Take care of yourself fuckingly, if you make yourself colorful, Lao Tzu wants him to look good!" ”
At this point, the five rapid fire of the mortar on the opposite side had been completed. After surviving four rounds of artillery fire, the little devil who is still alive seems to feel that he is the happiest person in the world.
The little devil finally shook off the dust covering his body, found his weapon again, and found that the people around him who could stand up again were more than half less than before.
Yin Mengwu saw that the little devils were all concentrated and ready to open the way, and immediately pulled the trigger, and shouted at the same time: "Hit-"
Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh--swish--23 grenades scattered out in the first round, encircling all the front, back, left, and right of the little devil formation. This is the way the fighters have summed up the shooting method through the first battle under the city of Mukden - there is no need to directly hit a specific target, and the most important thing is to complete the all-round coverage of the attack site!
Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh-swish--The second round of 23 grenades scattered out, this time all falling in the area that had been demarcated just now, and the impact points were irregular, thus creating the most gorgeous flame landscape!
Yin Mengwu saw that the soldiers were still happily judging the little devil, and suddenly shouted angrily: "What is there to look at the roast pig, don't fuck it, hurry up and retreat for Lao Tzu!" ”
It was the first time that Shi Liancheng and the soldiers of the guard team had seen the explosion effect of napalm, so they were surprised.
Yin Mengwu and the others saddled their horses and left, but Shi Liancheng and them sat on the back of their horses, still continuing to watch the little devils in the fire field running aimlessly.
After four rounds of shelling, there were less than a hundred remaining little devils, and now all of them have become burning people. The strange thing is that no matter what method these little devils take, they just can't put out the fire on their bodies.
In a short time, those little devils had already become mummies, and then lay in the fire and turned to ashes, washing away all the sins in their bodies!
Shi Liancheng looked at his watch at this time, and it was already 2:40 in the morning. In other words, I rubbed back and forth with this little devil for an hour. According to the calculation that the retreat began at half past eleven, the other two large troops had already left for more than three hours.
Even if the enemy discovers the truth at this time and makes a judgment after on-the-spot investigation, it is estimated that it will be tomorrow! If you take action at that time, the daylily will not be cold, but will turn into fly ashes!
"Captain, those little devils trapped in the fire are clearly yelling, but I don't hear any sound at all, what the hell is going on, is there something wrong with my ears?"
On the way home, Tang Pingshan, the captain of the guard team, had not yet woken up from the shock just now, so he hoped to get an answer here in Shi Liancheng.
"Nonsense, you ask me, who do I ask?" Shi Liancheng didn't understand what this was weishenme, and he was still confused: "When you go home, you go directly to your commander-in-chief, this thing was invented by him, and only he can explain it clearly." It's the first time I've seen it today, and it's so fucking weird and wicked! ”
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
