Chapter 62: Smoke Bombs
Yang Xiaolin sat there without saying a word, and Cai Ye next to him could hear the sound of his fingers pinching the gram, and there was a deathly silence in the entire headquarters!
After a long while, Yang Xiaolin sat up straight and took a deep breath: "Tell Chen Tianhua, don't say anything, Lao Tzu won't say anything!" ”
Cai Yi nodded: "I know." ”
Yang Xiaolin chose to remain silent.
After Yuan Shikai was bullied by the Russians, he chose to keep calling grievances and constantly asking people to come out to uphold justice. But Yang Dagui was slashed by the Russians and didn't do anything at all, gritted his teeth and silently endured the pain, and didn't say a word.
All the people in this room didn't say anything, because they knew that Commander Yang's silence was more terrible than an outburst.
Forcibly put away his anger, Yang Xiaolin was about to arrange an attack on the Fourth Division when Tai Wangu came in from outside the door: "Commander, Mr. Hao Fuman is here." ”
Yang Xiaolin was really surprised by Hao Fuman's arrival. The Germans fulfilled their promise that as long as Yang Dagui was still fighting, Hao Fuman would stay in the northeast. The research and development of weapons has been going on, and even the submachine gun is already about to succeed, a few days ago they came up with one, and the performance test is underway, Yang Xiaolin really doesn't know what Hao Fuman is doing on the battlefield at this time.
"Commander Yang, first of all, allow me to congratulate you on your victory."
Hao Fuman's demeanor was very relaxed, and he hugged his fist at Yang Xiaolin from a distance in the same way that the heroes of the Northeast met. Although his mood was not too good, Yang Xiaolin also squeezed out a smile from his face: "Mr. Hao Fuman, it's a little early to congratulate, I still have two big fish that can't be caught in the net, and besides, my surroundings are not calm, and a big storm is coming towards me." ”
Hao Fuman shrugged his shoulder indifferently: "I know! In fact, you can now take out the 4th Division and withdraw from the battle, and a telegram was sent from Berlin last night. They're kind of convinced that you can last a year. ”
Yang Xiaolin sighed: "You won't be here to tell me this, right?" You're welcome to you, I'm very nervous about time right now, so you can say something quickly. ”
Hao Fuman's body turned back and called a group of Liaodong militiamen who followed him, each of whom was carrying a box, and Yang Xiaolin didn't know what the box contained.
Hao Fuman beckoned them to put the boxes on the ground and opened them one by one: "Commander, this is a smoke bomb made according to the method you told me before, due to the tight time, and your current production conditions are not very good. So I only made these two hundred, and the first thing I did when I came was to give this to you and see how it was used on the battlefield. ”
Yang Xiaolin's eyes lit up immediately, this smoke bomb was something he remembered a while ago. This thing is simple to make, and Yang Pian Police can make it up at home before. But on the battlefield, it's very practical! Especially when attacking, if there is no strong wind, the smoke bomb can have the effect of blocking the opponent's line of sight!
"Why didn't you send it to me earlier? If you have to be a few days earlier, I will definitely not have to die so many people when I fight the third division! ”
As Yang Xiaolin spoke, he pulled one open and threw it forward! The smoke slowly spewed out. It only took more than ten seconds for everyone to find that piece had been seen clearly!
Mr. Hauffman was a little innocent: "I've used the fastest speed, you know the road is not easy. ”
Whether it is the duration of the smoke or the intensity of the smoke, it is not as good as the one used by Yang Pian when he was in the police force before. Moreover, what Hao Fuman and the others researched was still a grenade type, and there was no smoke bomb fired from a small cannon, and the distance was limited.
But Yang Xiaolin is already quite satisfied! He immediately said to Cai Ye: "Give all these smoke bombs to the attacking troops!" His grandmother's, with these guys. I believe that we will be able to complete the encirclement and annihilation of the 4th Division ahead of schedule! ”
Of course Cai Ye believes! He also saw the effect, as long as a few such smoke bombs were thrown in front of the Japanese position, then the situation of the volunteer charge was not visible to the little Japan at all! This meant that the Volunteers could easily approach the Japanese positions. This is very beneficial to the attacking side!
Cai Ye hurriedly took the soldiers away, but Mr. Hao Fuman had no intention of leaving: "Commander, if you allow it, I want to observe your battle, can you?" ”
This battle between the volunteers and the Japanese has attracted the attention of Quan Shijie, Yang Xiaolin was able to launch the encirclement and annihilation of the Japanese Second Army in the case of inferior troops, and many countries are eager to know the details of this battle. Especially in Germany, now the two sides are in the stage of military cooperation, and the Germans also have weapons in the hands of the volunteers, and the Germans must want to know how Yang Dagui combined so many arms and how to form combat effectiveness so that the volunteers can challenge opponents who are stronger than him.
"Absolutely! You have that right, and, if you need to know some details, I can tell you without reservation. By the way, you just said that sending something is just the first thing, right? ”
Hao Fuman nodded: "Yes, I have one more thing. During this period of time, we studied the kind of tank used by the Russians in the battle of Heilongjiang, and we found that it actually had a lot of weaknesses! For example, it is severely limited by the terrain, the movement speed is not very fast, and fuel is also a big problem. I think that if he loses the protection of infantry and artillery, he is a pile of scrap metal, and it seems that there is no need to spend a lot of energy on research. ”
Yang Xiaolin turned his head sharply to look at Hao Fuman, he really didn't expect that the empire that created the steel torrent in the future would now have such an attitude towards the infantry vehicles that the Russians had just put into use! In fact, not only the Germans, but also the British and French also expressed disdain for Russian infantry vehicles after studying them!
Historically, the Russian infantry fighting vehicle really did not attract the attention of various countries after it came out, even if Hauffman said, due to the restrictions of the terrain, it moved too slowly, which seemed to be destined to be unsuitable for the battlefield.
Moreover, before the First World War, many countries continued the combat concept of the Napoleonic era, and the chariot was not a fierce thing and was not suitable for them.
But Yang Xiaolin knew that when the infantry vehicle was equipped with tracks, when it had a special engine and weapons specially developed for it, when he and the tank formed a torrent of steel, how unstoppable it was!
Trench? Blockhouse? Fortress? All of this will be dusted in front of them!
Hao Fuman was obviously not very comfortable with Yang Xiaolin: "What I said is the conclusion that we have reached after research in Germany, of course, if you insist on spending energy on this, we will cooperate with you." ”
Yang Xiaolin smiled, smiling very happily: "Okay, since you said you won't do it, let's let this matter go first, now let's go to the front line, and the battle will start immediately." ”
The Fourth Division was really unable to turn over, they first fought fiercely with Li Debiao's Third Division for three full days in order to break through the defensive line, and had already suffered thousands of casualties, and then they quickly advanced all the way towards the Third Division to relieve the siege.
As a result, before they could arrive, the 3rd Division was killed. They turned around and wanted to run, but the volunteers followed behind to chase and intercept, and when they arrived at Yangjia Datun and couldn't run, there was basically no formation at all.
The soldiers and officers were in a mess, and the Volunteers were devastated by the defeat of the 3rd Division, and after the encirclement, the whole team was filled with a sense of defeat and despair, and the army was discouraged and had no fighting spirit.
After a round of artillery bombardment by the Volunteers, Aida crawled out of the rubble and glanced at the squad beside him, there were only five people left!
They were the first to be attacked in the first trench. The people on the other side had already begun to charge towards them, and the guys were scattered and rushed towards him one by one! Aida only lifted his head slightly, and a bullet hit the dirt beside him, and the dust splashed up like a mouth and nose, and he hurriedly crouched down again.
The captain of the group in the back obviously knew that the situation here was not good, and after the shelling was over, he brought more than 100 people to defend. The heavy machine gun quickly got up, and the captain shuttled back and forth in the trench, and when he walked to Aita's side, he very savagely lifted his collar and hit Aita's face with two ears: "Eight grid tooth road!" Grab your gun and aim at the enemy on the opposite side! ”
Aita then lay back on his stomach on the trench, his eyes fixed on the volunteers rushing across the road, and his crosshairs were aimed at the guy who rushed the fastest.
"Bang! Bang! ”
Gun grenades and grenades continue to explode around, and the Japanese are also desperately throwing grenades downward, but the bombardier of the Volunteer Army is a specially trained branch of the army, and the surrounding teammates know to give protection and cooperation, the Japanese army is different, see who can throw the grenade far and let whoever be the bombardier, the gap between the two sides can be clearly seen.
Finally, the volunteers rushed to the shooting distance, and the captain commanded the knife to point forward, and Aida quickly pulled his trigger. A dull sound of gunfire sent the fastest volunteer to the ground, rolling twice in the mud and never moving again.
After Aida finished this shot, he quickly crouched down, and immediately more than a dozen bullets flew over his head! The captain also saw that Aita had hit, and while organizing the Japanese army to fight back, he stretched out his thumb to him from afar: "Yo Xi!" ”
"Hidden! Beware of concealment! ”
The squad leader was almost howling, reminding his fighters. The soldiers of a squad were all lying not far in front of the Japanese position, and the squad leader made a gesture at the bombardier, and the bombardier took out two smoke bombs from the back that the regimental headquarters had just issued to him, and they didn't know whether this thing was useful or not, but the regiment commander said that it could be used, and when he got close to the enemy, he could throw it in front of the enemy's position.
The smoke grenade was put in his hand and weighed it a few times, this thing was really thrown for the first time, it was much lighter than a grenade, and the regiment commander said that he must not throw it behind the Japanese position, he had to familiarize himself with the weight.
Feeling that it was almost over, he made a gesture to his comrades, and the light machine gun and rifle immediately got up to cover him, and the two smoke bombs landed accurately at a distance of more than two meters in front of the Japanese position. (To be continued......)
