Chapter 77 Street Fighting Arrangement

All the members of the movement sat neatly in a circle, and the little one in the middle told them about the tactics and precautions of street fighting.

"Street battles are generally called "urban wars". This is because street battles are battles between streets and streets, and the places where they occur usually occur in cities or large villages."

Wu Ming smiled and said, "Actually, except for fighting with 200 in Taung-chi, I have never fought a real street battle. I am just talking about it on paper for reference. Everything depends on our gradual exploration and learn real practical experience from it."

"Boss, what do you don't know?" Tan Zheng cheered: "Are you too modest?"

"It's not humility, absolutely not." Wu Ming shook his head, "This street fighting is the cruelest and the most difficult to grasp. Fortunately, we have few people, so we just cooperate with each other. If we are the main attack, I will not accept it. Now I will continue to explain it to you. Remember it for me, and then let's discuss it carefully and decide the tactics to be adopted in the next battle."

Xiao Minghua took the small notebook and recorded every word of Wu Ming.

"In general, street fighting has the following two prominent characteristics: First, it is that the enemy and us are close to each other, close to each other, and they are very cruel. Since the battle is almost all mainly infantry light fire assaults, and they are carried out within the sight line, and the terrain is complex and unpredictable, in street fighting, heavy weapons are basically useless. In the city, there are dense buildings and high-rise buildings. Tanks and armored vehicles that provide main fire support cannot lift the barrel to a sufficient height due to their own structural limitations. Therefore, it is impossible to effectively shoot high-altitude targets. The narrow streets also prevent large tanks such as tanks from turning around, making their sides and tail easily vulnerable to attacks. In street fighting, the mobility of the troops is severely restricted; the field of vision is limited, so observation, shooting, and coordination are possible.

It is very inconvenient. In many cases, the combat formations of the troops were split and had to be dispersed into units to fight independently. Second, the enemy and me were mixed with each other, and the dogs and teeth were intertwined, which was very dangerous. Because there was no clear front line, the enemy and me were mixed with each other. The formation of a stalemate between you and me was formed. The attacking side was in the open and the other was hiding in the dark, which increased the difficulty and risk of street fighting. The tall buildings and the construction of underground bunkers were a good place to hide snipers. Before others shot at you, you had no idea who the enemy was and where the bullets came from. Unexpected ambushing and unpreventable snipers often made the attacker tremble and frightened. He fell into a panic-like shadow of fear and could not extricate himself."

After pausing, Wu Ming said with a serious expression: "Everyone does not know enough about the cruelty of street fighting. Here I would like to remind you that the Japanese devils are cruel and stubborn by nature and advocate Yushu defense, which will inevitably make the street fighting in Myitkyina more intense. I wonder if you know whether you know the Battle of Stalingrad in the Soviet Union. This is the first large-scale street fighting in the true sense of modern warfare, and it is also a veritable urban meat grinder."

"That was in July 1942, right?" Fu Lijun thought and said, "I don't know very well about the specific situation. I only know that Germany and the Soviet Union suffered heavy losses. The German army did not occupy the city in the end."

"The tragic level of the Battle of Stalingrad is unparalleled in the world and unprecedented. Under Stalin's strict order, the Soviet army relied on the complex terrain and many artificial buildings in the city to fight desperately with the enemy. One floor, one room, a water tower, a section of railway subgrade, and even a wall and a pile of rubble can trigger fierce battles. The broken walls that the German army often seized at a great price were recaptured by the Soviet army in a blink of an eye. The railway station was repeatedly revived.

The hands reached more than a dozen times. The entire Stalingrad flames rose and blood flew everywhere. The enemy and us fought to the death. After the bullets were finished, they launched hand-to-hand combat. The tanks came up, and they rushed over with grenades tied to death with them. "Wu Ming said in a low voice: "The Japanese army is more tenacious than the Soviet army. If they cannot attack Myitkyina as soon as possible, the Japanese army will get reinforcements from the periphery and strengthen their troops. I believe you should understand the consequences."

The members of the Rangers were silent. Under Wu Ming's exaggeration, although they could not fully understand the cruelty of street fighting, they felt a lot of pressure.

"There is a difficulty, but everyone cannot be scared." Wu Ming waved his hand, "I will raise my head first about the tactical arrangements for street fighting, and then everyone will focus on their ideas."

Seeing that everyone's eyes were concentrated, Wu Ming said, "The team members and the team should cooperate closely, and the snipers and assaulters should work closely together. Multiple people will have more eyes and less risk of being attacked. Use more grenades and rocket launchers to expose them on the streets as much as possible. We can attack through the walls in the building, assist regular troops in step by step, and use signal flares to indicate targets to bombers and mortars. In short, it is just a saying, fight skillfully and not fight hard, and reduce casualties is the first priority."

The members of the Rangers looked at me, I looked at you, and finally turned their eyes to Wu Ming.

"What are you doing?" Wu Ming asked strangely: "Why are you looking at me like that? It's time for you to express your opinions. Didn't I say that I should brainstorm?"

"Boss, you are really unkind." Xiao Minghua said with a smile: "You can't say less, and you can also give us a chance to show off. It seems that you have finished what you should say. What do you want us to say?"

"That's it." Zhao Xiaomei also made fun of her: "It's hard for us to add it in such a careful consideration!"

"I have to say too much!" Wu Ming curled his lips, "You don't think about it, and I blame me for saying too much. Tell me how to configure this combat team? What weapons should they use? For example, the Japanese devils are inside that straw hut, how should you attack? Who is alert and who is attacking?"
