Chapter 123 Blitz on the sled

In winter, the boiling water stove is burning. This is the first meeting of the Northeast Republican Army in winter. As a Jianghuai people, the impression of the winter in the northeast is that it is cold and it is better to wrap the ears, nose, finger joints, or you will definitely get frostbite after spending a long time outside. It is best to apply some oil to prevent frost on these parts.

Ren Di said to a group of officers sitting on the kang: "If two people encounter a python that is ten meters long, how should they deal with it?" A group of officers looked at Ren Di, and then an officer, grandson of an officer, smiled and said, "Boss, how do you fight?" Ren Di said, "Hold and beat it." Suddenly, the officers began to laugh, and some people said, "How do you hang it up the python that is ten meters long?" Ren Di said, "Just wait for it to climb up the tree. When it wraps around the tree, its whole body wraps around the trunk, and attaches to the trunk by friction. It also limits its movement ability when binding the trunk. Isn't this equivalent to hanging it?"

The laughter stopped, and the officers seemed to understand what Ren Di said was like. Wen Sifang asked, "How can we get the big snake to climb a tree?" Ren Di said, "The big snake wants to eat people, and both of them climb a tree. Look at the tree on the snake and the tree on the snake. The other person can go down the tree and use an axe to chop the meat wrapped around the tree."

The officers began to discuss this topic, and some people said, "Boss, do you want to fight Beiliang's snake now?" Ren Di said, "This snake is big and flexible in summer, and I dare not mess with it. But it is winter now, and I was driven by this snake for a summer. Now it wants to go back to the nest and hibernate in a row. How can it make it so relaxed?"

Zhang Youhe said: "The boss teases this snake in winter. Do you want to wait for the army to go along the road to give this tree-mounted snake?" Ren Di said: "Don't expect to win in a winter, but as long as the conditions are strong for us, we will expand."

It is colder in the northeast, but at this time, the five divisions of the Republican Army had about 50,000 people. Suddenly, they bypassed around Changchun, and rushed directly to the west towards Tongliao. The bunkers were OK to deal with the Eighth Route Army that had no heavy firepower. Of course, the construction of crazy construction on the grassland during the colonial era can also bully the nomadic people without heavy firepower.

But what Hai Song is facing now is not an enemy without any ability to attack. The short Mongolian horse has the unimaginable patience of other tall horses. It is not suitable for galloping on the snow, as long as it can maintain the speed of infantry maneuver.

However, when it comes to maneuvering, it depends on what kind of weapon is maneuvering. On the sled boards dragged by these Mongolian horses, a 700-kilogram cannon body and a 200-kilogram cannonball are all the same as heavy firepower and the troops are maneuvering.

This is a recoilless cannon. It was placed on a jeep in World War II to fight tanks and attack tanks. It was not Ren Di's preference for this weapon, which has a big problem with the range of the weapon than the orthodox artillery. However, in the vast battlefield of the Northeast, firepower and motor power is the king. In the era of no mechanized transportation and large transport aircraft airborne, it can quickly move the blast pen from one place to another. During its movement, the threat range of the enemy in space is much greater than the range.

For example, the isolated bunkers near Tongliao are so abrupt on the silvery ground in winter, which makes people think of a fire. What are you waiting for? Set up the cannon stands and adjust the angle. Three or four heats are busy on the snow for a while. The two-meter-long cannon barrel aimed at the bunker on the horizon, and then burned a fire into the soul. Twenty kilograms of ammunition were directly installed on the brick-shaped bunker structure with a straight ballistic. The explosion flames instantly licked the frost on the brick-shaped bunker into a wet layer of water, and then turned into ice in the cold wind.

In ancient Chinese city defense tactics, it was particularly taboo to defend dullness. The so-called guarding dullness means that all troops are huddled in the city wall. If there is no flexible and mobile force outside the city wall to defend, it is equivalent to allowing the enemy to use all troops to deal with the city wall with peace of mind.

The bunker is a firepower, which can quickly rush to the battlefield for a while. In summer, war breaks out and the bunker cooperates with the mobile troops, which is very troublesome for the mobile troops. However, in winter, especially in Northeast Asia, you can stay in the position for a night at night, especially the long period of waiting for the offensive troops to come. It is deadly. Without heating facilities and winter shelter, no one can defend the field in the wild.

The bunkers quickly turned into broken circular walls and broken walls. The firepower built brick by brick in summer was free from the battlefield without the Haisong army joining the battlefield, and then they were demolished by the Republican army from various angles, and then explosives were removed.

In Tongliao, the 14th Army of the Haisong Army, who was responsible for restraining the Chifeng Republic Army, was struggling to build in the summer, and the positions built by the Republican Army were gradually compressed. In Tongliao area, the number and firepower of the Republican Army formed a local advantage due to the maneuver power. Facing this situation, the 14th Army of the Haisong Army panicked and asked for help from Beiliang Power Generation in Shenyang Base Camp.

The telegrams that Beiliang has received are not just Tongliao's emergency. In Jilin City, dozens of kilometers east of Changchun, it was also attacked by the Republican Army. He felt that this was an attack of more than 100,000 people, Beiliang thought of Ren Di's more than 30,000 people in summer and kept going around in circles near Changchun. A few months ago, in order to capture the slippery army of the Republican Army, Beiliang directly mobilized three armies and spent a lot of supplies to chase the wild. In that pursuit battle, Hai Song seriously wanted to fight a battle that decided the outcome, but Ren Di had no intention at all. Now he wanted to spend the New Year safely in winter, and this began.

If possible, Beiliang really wants to mobilize 200,000 troops with a big pen and push them up. However, the original plan of the Haisong Senate was to complete the occupation of the Northeast in the autumn, so the winter combat materials have not been transported, but priority is given to the transportation of troops. As for the sea transportation capacity of Haisong, it is also possible, but the calculation is incorrect. The mines on the Bohai Bay are getting more and more day by day. The shipping volume of the sea transportation line is sometimes intermittent.

If there are not enough winter combat supplies, hundreds of thousands of troops cannot move. It is best to stay in the city and not move. The troops that cannot move will not be called troops.

So when I saw these telegrams, Beiliang cursed: "Ren Di, you are a scallion dog."

"Ah sneezed" Ren Di sneezed and blew his nose and said, "The winter in the northeast is really cold." After a nightmare, Ren Di really envied the cold-proof equipment on the opposite side, the waterproof sleeping bag, which was down, light and warm. The Republican army seized a lot of such things since the war. Of course, most of them directly attacked the positions during the night attack, sweeping the people in the sleeping bags with bullets, so they brought blood. These broken sleeping bags were put on a patch and threw them to the wounded and sick. As for the intact seizure, they were all thrown to the doctor Suijun.

As for how the Republican army sleeps, dig a pit, lay straw, and then a few people gather together, wrap the military coats together, and sleep in pairs. Two big men sleep in clinging to each other. If they put them in the 21st century, they will definitely be scolded. But this is indeed a good way to maintain calories. Of course, men and women are better at hugging, but there is no such cheap thing.

As for Wen Sifang, he has been with Ren Di since he was so old that Ren Di has always slept on a big bed alone. Damn this girl has never slept on it yet.

Of course, after a few days, I almost didn't feel it. Because the impact of war will dilute everything.

Through the telescope, I looked at the land in the distance that was very different from the snow, and the snow was covered with charred everywhere. The Republican soldiers naturally had a way of fighting, which was to take turns to the opposite army and bombard the opposite army at 24 o'clock.

If the generals look at the blood strips, blood loss is not only an injury, but also a fatigue bombardment. It is okay to not sleep for a day, or two days, but three days later, the Haisong army, which was cold and frozen in the snow, was finally overwhelmed.

After a good defense is arranged in one battle, defense is easier than attack. But the same fact is that to defend a force that can attack on a long position, you need a large amount of troops to be placed on this defense line. This arrangement consumes more troops than attacking troops. If the weather conditions are suitable, it is nothing to stay in the trenches. But now it is winter, and such a large position requires people. In winter, soldiers are placed in the trenches to defend even if they don’t fight, they will suffer losses and frostbite losses.

A vulnerability occurred in a position and the attacker discovered it. The entire position was a joke. It was as black and humorous as the Machilo defense line. Now Hai Song is not supported by an industrial base on the edge of the battlefield. With such a large land in the Northeast, if you want to build a complete trench system like World War I, you will divide the entire Northeast Plain unless Hai Song moves all the industrial centers to the Northeast to provide support. However, this is impossible.

Even Hai Song is not ready for winter now. Yes, Hai Song's sleeping bags, canned winter meat, and a series of supply quality are beyond the Republican Army, but the quantity is not enough.

On the third day of the war, I felt that the opposite army had been exhausted to a certain extent. Ren Di's command decided to break through the positions of the Haisong army, and a large number of horses and sleds formed a series of pressing lines on the snow. A large number of weapons and ammunition were transported to the front line through this means of transportation.

If we need to follow the military evaluation, Hai Song won the Republican Army in terms of logistics firepower. However, their stalls were too big. Because they were unable to integrate into the local area, there were too many places that needed to be occupied. These places restricted Hai Song greatly extended the logistics line that needed to be transported, and there were too many areas where the troops needed to be dispersed.
