“Leng Feng, what do you think I will choose?” Tang Dao, who had been looking into the distance, suddenly asked in a deep voice.
In the distance, there has just been an explosion.
In order to expand the access to the city, an engineer platoon following the Third Battalion buried nearly 200 kilograms of explosives under a city wall!
However, in order to ensure a wider passage for the infantry, the engineers did not use the almost crazy blasting method of placing two hundred kilograms of explosives in the same area. Of course, it could send a nearly twenty-meter-long city wall into the sky, and even Use a shower of stones to hit the Japanese position not far from the city wall. If it doesn't kill you, it will kill you.
However, compared to this result, Leng Feng was more inclined to ensure a channel for his infantry to attack.
The road must not be narrow anymore!
So, it is a directional blasting divided into 3 positions!
An eighty-meter-wide section of the city wall completely collapsed, completely exposing the Japanese defensive position illuminated by flares to the sight of the two commanders.
The Japanese army's position was perfectly deployed. In the darkness, sparks from machine guns and rifles were constantly flickering. The Chinese soldiers, suppressed by Japanese firepower, fought back behind the ruins. The light and heavy machine guns of both sides fired at each other, creating a formation in the night sky. A series of extremely magnificent crimson phantoms.
In the final darkness before dawn, for ordinary people, this is undoubtedly an unforgettable spectacle, but for two soldiers who have experienced countless cruel battlefields, they know very well that every phantom disappears Behind it, perhaps the flower of life is carving zero.
Whether it is Chinese soldiers or Japanese invaders!
War has never anything to do with beauty, some can only be cruel!
“I don't know!” Leng Feng shook his head in pain.
He had no choice, but he was in pain because he could see the medical soldiers frantically carrying off the wounded soldiers from the front line. At this moment, there were already more than ten, and this had not officially entered the offensive stage. The last time they fought against Bihe In the battle, we defended against the attack of a Japanese infantry brigade, and we had never suffered so many casualties in the early stages.
Sure enough, offensive battles are much more difficult to fight than defensive battles.
“In this war, China is facing a powerful enemy that it has never encountered in thousands of years. Regardless of its national strength or industrial capabilities, China is at a disadvantage. It is almost impossible to win the final victory.
But fortunately, we have a vast land and a huge population. This is the only opportunity for China to reverse its course.
That's right, don't be afraid of death and sacrifice! This is China's only chance to win this war.
This sacrifice is necessary not only for my generation of soldiers, but also for all Chinese people, so that our descendants can continue to live on this land. "Tang Dao's tone was firm and cold.
Leng Feng felt a shudder. He already roughly knew the final choice of his regimental commander.
“Leng Feng, do you know that as the top commander on the front line, every second of hesitation you make will lead to an increase in the number of casualties among your subordinates.
Moreover, the Japanese invaders in the city may have already approached the residential areas. Every minute of delay will lead to the worst outcome we expected in advance. By that time, when you see rows of white-haired old ladies and wawawei When the baby is crying, do you still have the courage to order your brothers to shoot? If you don't want to or don't dare to make sacrifices, then you will face more sacrifices. "Tang Dao still didn't look at his capable subordinate. His eyes were filled with red that was constantly flying in the night sky.
“What's more, do you think that the Japanese army's precautions against our people will allow them to continue to stay around their positions and spy on them?
How could they have imagined that one day their firepower would be inferior to that of the Chinese army, which they looked down upon at all? They used residential buildings and streets to form defensive positions. I'm afraid they wanted to kill a large number of infantry and never thought that the opponents they encountered would have artillery! "Tang Dao's eyes suddenly became a little fierce: "I think you, the highest commander in the south gate direction, should know what you should do! "
Tang Dao's three infantry battalion commanders, regimental deputy and first battalion commander Lei Xiong are bold and enthusiastic, second battalion commander Guo Shouzhi is persistent and calm, and third battalion commander Leng Feng is fierce and firm.
It seems that among the three infantry battalion commanders, Leng Feng is the coldest one, and the one who can best make effective decisions when faced with such difficult decisions.
But in fact, Leng Feng is a typical example of being cold-faced and hot-hearted. In the Battle of the Golden Pit, he did not hesitate to expose the position of the entire company for stones. Zhengzhou was attacked by the Japanese. His individual combat power was actually far weaker than that of two Japanese ninjutsu masters. , but he still guarded the door of the box without taking a step back, almost guarding the woman he liked with his life.
The coldness on his face is to cover up the pain in his heart, but the coldness in his heart is actually only for one kind of people - Japanese invaders!
For such a person, if you expect him to make such an almost cruel decision in a short period of time, it is almost impossible.
But the south gate position is very special. Mingxin's "making a living" by walking around the streets and alleys of Licheng this week is not just for food and accommodation. Except for the heavily guarded arsenal area of the Japanese army, she has never had the opportunity to visit the Japanese military camp in Licheng. He had a close grasp of the situation in the residential areas, and the information had already reached Tang Dao.
At the night combat meeting of the four regiments in the latent area last night, except for Lei Xiong who had already gone to the blocking position, the two infantry battalion commanders each understood the situation in the area where they were about to fight.
In the South Gate area, the residents of private houses that had been requisitioned by the Japanese army as positions were naturally driven away.
In fact, before the Japanese army arrived, one-third of the original residents of Licheng County had already fled. Those who remained either had nowhere to go, or were lucky enough to think that the Japanese army would not do anything to them. The entire Licheng County has a maximum population of only 6,000 people. As the Japanese army vigorously promoted the so-called "ChinJapan friendship" and did not do anything evil in the city, more than 1,000 people returned to the county seat, which only had a population of 7,000. .
There is a street leading from the south gate to the center of the city, which is also the commercial center of the entire Licheng County. Businessmen such as rice shops, grain shops, wine shops, cloth shops, and restaurants are basically concentrated on this street.
Businessmen are indeed different from ordinary people. Money is even more important to them than life. When the Japanese came, civilians ran away more, but many businessmen still chose to stick to it.
Although the Japanese army also ate for free, they did not burn, kill, and loot like the legend. People's bottom line dropped so quickly. In the past half a month, many shops were even open for business.
To put it bluntly, as the most prosperous area in Licheng County, there are naturally no Chinese in the Japanese position at the South Gate, but the surrounding residential buildings have not been driven away, and there are still many businessmen. Once the artillery fire is fired, there will definitely be There was an accidental injury.
If after the war, Leng Feng saw the corpses of his compatriots lying in the wild under his orders, it would definitely be a huge blow to him, and it might become his lifelong demon, just like when he saw his youngest brother die in the It's the same as before my eyes.
To this day, he still has the bayonet used by his younger brother under his pillow. Without that knife, he cannot sleep no matter how deep the night is.
Tang Dao can't watch Leng Feng put another shackles on him!
That's why he came to the south gate in person to supervise the battle.
Sure enough, when Leng Feng couldn't make a decision, Tang Dao helped him make a decision.
But with the development of the Four Lines Regiment and the changes in the war situation, Tang Dao cannot stand behind him every time. Leng Feng, who has become a battalion commander and will even take a higher position, must learn to make choices.
As Tang Dao said, for the victory of the nation, no one can be sacrificed, including himself.
Every war is won not only by victory, but also by sacrifice, but also by learning and growth.
Soldiers, become elite soldiers in all battles. Commanders, learn to dare to take on more responsibilities, even if it is painful to the bone.
One general's success was so great that all his bones were withered. Tang Dao was forced to learn to be ruthless and cruel, and so did his subordinates.
“Order that the officers and soldiers in the city wall area withdraw from the city wall in batches, leaving an infantry platoon to contain the Japanese firepower and cover the engineer platoon approaching the battlefield; the infantry platoon at the city gate retreats into the city gate after receiving the order, and no rash advance is allowed before the military order arrives.
The 1st telegraph gun company used all 82nd troops to cooperate with the machine gun company of our battalion to cover the Japanese front-line positions with artillery fire for ten minutes after our battalion sent out the signal flare.
At the same time, the 2nd Telegraph Cannon Company, because the Japanese army has a fortress, our battalion needs firepower reinforcements, and we request them to support four rapid-fire guns and four infantry guns! "
Leng Feng lowered his head and pondered for more than ten seconds, then raised his head resolutely and issued the order.
Three minutes later, watching groups of soldiers retreating from the city wall area to 300 meters away, looking for bunkers to hide, Leng Feng looked at Tang Dao with cold eyes, and finally couldn't help but said: "Tuanzuo, I'm sorry, this area There may still be many people from Licheng in the area, and I still want to try again."
"Haha, very good, Leng Feng, you did better than I thought. If you had just requested the 1st artillery company to use a 150-weight mortar or a 75-weight mountain gun, then it would be great for you to become a regimental commander in the future. If you If you have been under my command, Mr. Tang!" A smile appeared on Tang Dao's face, which had been cold just now.
In such a cruel battlefield, sacrifice is already the most common situation. If you feel deeply guilty when you see a little bit of your own blood, then you'd better not shout the slogan of defending your country and go home.
But if you do not care about the life and death of your own civilians for the sake of tactical victory, then you are as cold-blooded as a butcher.
Just like the Garden Mouth of the Yellow River in time and space, yes, after the levee was blasted, the raging Yellow River water turned a small half of Henan Province into a state of Zeguo, hindering the march of the Japanese mechanized troops. Zhengzhou was saved, and it also forced the slow-moving Japanese army to Having to take a detour, the battle around Jiangxia, an important town in central China, gained valuable time, which was considered a victory from a strategic perspective.
However, the price paid by the people of Henan Province was that as many as 890,000 people were buried in the belly of fish, millions of people became victims of the disaster, and their bones stretched thousands of miles away.
The losses were so great that they even exceeded the Japanese invaders' rampage in Jinling. Tang Dao would not agree with such a chilling strategic victory.
Of course, Tang Dao also knew very clearly that this was the reason why he could only become a soldier and not a politician, no matter in his past or present life. There is no warmth on the battlefield, but it does not mean that we have lost our humanity.
Leng Feng's choice is very good.
The accuracy of the 150-meter heavy mortar and the 75-meter mountain gun is much worse than that of the 82-meter mortar, which can fire 500 meters away from the battlefield. A slight difference can blow up residential areas into a white field.
And he used the engineer platoon again, and Tang Dao vaguely guessed his next strategy.
This time, he no longer needs infantry to attack the passage. He wants to use another way to give the Japanese some color.
In addition to the 60-meter gap, the tall city wall at the south gate is more than 500 meters long, and the platoon of Bai Sheng's engineer company can carry a full 800 kilograms of explosives this time. That was the last time they bombed the Yellow River Iron Bridge. What's left.
In order to ensure that the Yellow River Iron Bridge completely disappears on the Yellow River, the First Theater Command specially approved a total of 4,000 kilograms of explosives, which was considered to be all the money.
And since Tang Dao has exchanged some of the captured weapons for the New Eighth Division Engineer Company, these remaining explosives will naturally be accepted with a smile. Tang Dao is not a philanthropist. There is a reason to spit out what he swallowed. .
So, the engineer platoon went into battle again and "crazy" buried 400 kilograms of explosives under a complete city wall that was less than 20 meters away from the Japanese defensive position!
That was 400 kilograms of explosives. When Tang Dao participated in the Battle of the Four Elements, he only buried hundreds of kilograms in a building and blew up the whole building.
And this section of the city wall is only 4 meters high and 3 meters wide. Compared with a building made of reinforced concrete, it is nothing.
With a loud "bang", the city wall of more than 20 meters, which was not considered majestic, was directly blown into the sky.
Thick smoke enveloped the entire city wall area.
In other words, darkness has shrouded the city wall area.
Because, from that moment on, there was neither a flaming phantom nor a flare.
All the Chinese soldiers on the position, including Tang Tuanzuo and Leng Feng, all made one move, curled up and buried their heads on the position.
The small rocks even traveled through a space of three hundred meters and hit the helmet.
As for the jingling sound, it does not exist.
Because everyone's eardrums were buzzing from this huge explosion, no sound could be heard at all. Even if someone roared in their ears, it was as low as a mosquito.
And this was after everyone was told to plug their ears with cotton.
If there is no blockage, and the distance is only a few dozen meters, the probability of becoming deaf is estimated to be more than 80%.
Nearly a minute passed before Leng Feng ordered the grenadier to fire a flare near the city wall.
Then, the Chinese soldiers who looked up and looked ahead collectively took a breath of cold air.
The scene of concentrated blasting with 400 kilograms of explosives is much scarier than the previous use of 200 kilograms to open a road.
The city wall, which was originally three to four meters high, has become a ruin. The highest part is only a waist-high ruin.
Dozens of tons of masonry were blown away, and the pit where the explosives were buried was diagonally inward along the base of the city wall. It was a typical directional blasting. Sixty to seventy percent of the masonry that was blown away was Fly towards the county seat within the city wall, especially the Japanese position which is only thirty or forty meters away from the city wall.
Compared to cannonballs that can pierce the soul in one shot, the lethality of rocks flying into residential areas is much lower. Leng Feng finally chose this slightly gentle attack method on his own people.
But for the Japanese army, it was really violent.
A few minutes ago, as there were fewer and fewer Chinese on the city wall and the firepower became weaker and weaker, Lieutenant Nakasuki Yamashita, who was responsible for leading more than 160 soldiers to garrison the south gate, was feeling a little excited.
With the qualifications to repel the Chinese army, he may be stable as the temporary infantry squadron leader, instead of assuming the position of acting squadron leader because Captain Tanaka was accidentally injured.
He was very satisfied with the outcome of the battle, even though his men had suffered considerable losses in the fierce exchange of fire in the past few minutes. According to reports, more than a dozen people were killed on the spot and more than 20 people were injured.
The attacking Chinese were obviously different from the Chinese troops he had encountered before. Not only did they have a large number of artillery, but they also had a large amount of continuous firepower. However, a small force of dozens of people was actually more powerful than the Chinese army in the past. An infantry company in the army is much more powerful. If it were not for the two heavy machine guns in the squadron, the infantry squadron in the fortifications would not even be able to raise its head.
But, what about being strong? With this level of shooting, the Chinese cannot overcome it. If he wants to charge into the position, he has 160 infantry, 6 light machine guns, 2 heavy machine guns, and complete fortifications. He can make the Chinese pay ten times as much as his own. The price above.
This cannot be said to be Lieutenant Nakaki Yamashita's blind confidence. In the past, an infantry brigade surrounded by the 921 Division relied on the civil fortifications that took a day to build and resisted for a whole day without being completely wiped out. The lack of artillery resulted in insufficient attack capabilities. The 921st Division paid a battle loss that made the two commanders extremely heartbroken years later.
But this time, Lieutenant Nakaki Yamashita really thought too much. The opponents he faced, let alone the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, just talked about the equipment. I dare not say it at the division level, but they easily beat all the Japanese Army regiment levels during this period. The infantry sequence is still no problem.
The huge explosion made by 400 kilograms of explosives shook Sakira Nakatama who had just escaped. The ugly face looking towards the south gate turned as white as if it had just been powdered. Snow white.
As a lieutenant-general-level officer, Sakira Nakatama knew exactly what it was. What else could it be besides blasting? It can't be that the Chinese just light up big firecrackers to entertain themselves!
The direction of the south gate is not good. Brothers from Lucheng, come quickly! If he didn't come back, he would have to collect the corpses of 1,000 imperial colleagues. Qi Liangchutama once again ordered the signal corps to send a request for help telegram to Lucheng, even though he knew that a similar request for help telegram had just been sent a few minutes ago.
“Good boy, Tuan Zuo, you have moved the Sihang Warehouse here again!” Heizi, who was still busy arranging his fighting position in Wang's mansion, couldn't help but sigh.
He had seen with his own eyes how Tang Dao blew up a building.
"Captain! Don't sigh, I want to hear your story, but we have to wait until we die!" Shen Laoliu over there made a grimace.
Before the big explosion, the gunshots rang out in the city were getting closer and closer, and the Japanese were coming soon.
Although it was honorable for the whole regiment to line up to salute and see him off after he died in battle, Shen Laoliu really didn't want to just lie down like that. He wanted to brag to his children and grandchildren in the future! What's the point of just watching them burn paper, light incense and pour wine underground? Are those things edible or edible?
It's too far away.
It's all because Lao Liu has too much inner drama.
That, after all, is how people feel hundreds of meters or even thousands of meters away!
For the Japanese troops in the South Gate defensive position, especially those in the nearest front-line position, including a certain Japanese lieutenant who had to plant trees at the foot of the mountain, it was really not a loud noise, but Explosion.
Being deaf in both ears is no longer enough to describe their feelings at this time. At least half of the Japanese soldiers had two thin traces of blood flowing from their ears. It was because their eardrums were shattered.
Even if they are lucky enough to survive, they will live in a silent world from now on.
In short, they can apply for a disability certificate from this moment on, the third-level one!
(Japanese: Who are you looking down on? When did we have Level 3? If you want to come, let's come to Level S!)
(Feng Yue: I am superficial!)
But this is the first wave of consequences caused by the explosion.
The city wall that flies up to the sky will fall down!
Even if it's the goddess's loose flower style.
