Chapter 201: Different Charge
"Boom..." With the bursts of explosions, hundreds of various artillery artillery on the five high grounds roared together, and the grenades, explosion cylinders and explosive packs thrown out by the soldiers... they exploded into pieces in front of the position, and the roaring sound was like the firepower of the shells.
However, although these explosions are numerous and dense, only mortars with long range can hit the valley entrance two kilometers away. It’s ridiculous that the Vietnamese army didn’t know anything about it. In addition, the hilly valley in front of our army was full of smoke that had not yet dissipated, so they kept crowding into the valley entrance.
But then again, as the saying goes, the authorities are confused. If we encounter this situation in this valley where gunpowder is full of smoke, we may not be able to figure out the situation like them. Especially for me, a person with a very poor sense of direction...
So, in the telescope, I only saw that the valley water outlet was crowded with people. Several mortar shells could always cause bloody storms and scream. Even the tanks turned around and squeezed into the canyon to compete with the infantry. The valley water outlet was crowded and chaotic.
After a long time, the Vietnamese army finally retreated cleanly in the fog, leaving only new corpses and pools of red blood at the mouth of the valley. The soldiers stopped their movements, and then remained silent for a while before a cheer erupted.
Although the Vietnamese army had lost troops and generals on the firewall made by our army with artillery fire, many soldiers were shocked by their spirit of taking the lead regardless of life and death. At this time, our army suddenly lost artillery fire assistance and had to face the Vietnamese army directly, so most of the soldiers were a little confused.
In fact, people are like this. If there was no artillery fire assistance from the beginning, it might be better. But what we had enjoyed before was the powerful artillery fire of our army. Seeing that the Yue Japanese rushed up one after another, they all turned into ashes in a flash. Over time, the soldiers naturally felt a kind of dependence in their hearts. At the same time, they would also think in their hearts that no matter how strong the Yue Japanese Japanese could fight, what would happen? Can they be stronger than our army's artillery shells?
But suddenly it turned into a shell, and it was undoubtedly a huge contrast in the soldiers' psychology, so it was inevitable that they felt weak in their hearts.
Of course, these soldiers who are ill-hearted and do not include the special reconnaissance brigade in my hands. They had seen how much pounds these Vietnamese troops were last night.
However, the soldiers saw that just a fire of artillery caused such great casualties and chaos by the Vietnamese army, and they were all overjoyed and cheered loudly. At the same time, the fear of the quality of the Vietnamese army and the helplessness of losing the aid of artillery fire in their hearts disappeared without a single person.
So at this time I realized one thing, that is, my frightened bird strategy not only killed some of the Vietnamese troops, delayed the Vietnamese attack time, but also inspired the morale of our troops.
Morale is a bit indescribable, it cannot be seen or touched. Sometimes it only takes a small stimulus to make the soldiers fighting perform extraordinary combat power without fear of death. Sometimes it only takes a little insignificant blow to make the entire army afraid of no one step forward.
This may be just a sentence from a veteran: "War is about murderous intent. If our murderous intent overwhelms the enemy, then we will win. If we can't overwhelm, then we will lose!"
Moreover, the more morale affects the troops that are not trained, the more powerful the reason is very simple. Veterans are all mixed up in the battlefield. No matter what happens on the battlefield, they know what they should do to increase the chance of winning the entire army and also increase their chances of returning alive. However, this is not the case with the new recruits.
There is no doubt that most of the PLA soldiers are recruits, and their oldest soldiers are at most on the battlefield for a few months, so morale is very important to them. From this point of view, I think I am quite lucky. A method I came up with just now accidentally strengthened the confidence of the entire army and boosted their morale.
Looking at the water outlet in the distance through the telescope, the Vietnamese army still had no movement. But I knew this was temporary. The Vietnamese army was all high-quality veterans. They were just afraid of our artillery fire and were scared away by our artillery fire. When they retreated, they looked back and thought about it. From the howling sound of shells in the air, they could even tell from the whistling of the shells in the air that they were bombing them just was just mortars rather than long-range artillery. So I knew that they would soon launch an attack on our position, and the subsequent attack would be assured and bold as they attacked with all their strength.
Thinking of this, I immediately ordered to the radio and telephone: "All units are ready for combat, and the bazooka and recoilless gunners should pay attention to anti-tanks, and the mortars should all strive to reach the valley water outlet!"
"Yes!" The response was not only the soldiers of my special reconnaissance brigade, but also the cadres from other high grounds accepted my order very simply.
So I knew that the battle just now not only the benefits that seemed to be, but also the convincingness of the cadres from all the highlands who did not like to listen to my orders.
"Woo..." Just as we were waiting for the Yue Japanese to appear at the Gushuikou, we didn't expect that what we waited left and right was the whistling of artillery shells in the sky. Without saying a word, the soldiers and I retracted our heads into the trench and then drilled into the anti-cannon hole behind us... This seemed to have become our habitual action, so there was no hesitation or pause at all.
"Boom..." Then there was a burst of explosions. The explosion of the shells made the mud on the anti-aircraft hole fall down like rain. Some of them just drilled into my collar and then slid down my back... The discomfort made me unable to help but feel the desire to reach out and grab the mud. However, the narrow space of the anti-aircraft hole made me unable to do this at all. I could only continue to curl up in it with my head down and wait quietly. As for what I was waiting for, I was not sure about it. Either I just waited for a shell to blow the anti-aircraft hole and bury me alive, or I just waited to go out and have this seemingly endless war with the Vietnamese Japanese!
This time, the Vietnamese army prepared for artillery fire for a long time, and after fifteen minutes, there was no sign of stopping. I think this should be because the Vietnamese army knew that the artillery shells of our army had been exhausted, so they were so unscrupulous. However, although the artillery time was long and intensity, the guns were insufficient, and the sound of artillery was a bit sparse, and sometimes there was a short gap. Needless to say, it must be because the Vietnamese army's artillery had already suffered heavy losses under the suppression of our army's artillery fire.
The intensity of artillery fire like this is not enough to cause much damage to the fortifications of our five high grounds. The Vietnamese army with rich combat experience will not be unaware of this, so I believe that the main purpose of their shelling this time is actually to cover their infantry through the mouth of the valley.
As I guessed, when I braved the Vietnamese artillery fire and drilled out of the anti-aircraft hole, I found that a large number of Vietnamese troops had already crossed the Gushuikou while our army was hiding into the anti-aircraft hole to avoid shells and gathered in front of our positions to prepare for the attack...
It was really a group of cunning guys. Seeing this, I couldn't help but curse: If I hadn't been careful, these guys would have been deceived. If we still hid in the anti-cannon hole, we might have known it later until the Vietnamese army rushed in front of us.
"Everyone has it!" I immediately ordered to the radio: "Each high ground is allocated a row to defend the trenches!"
"Yes!" With the soldiers' response, dozens of soldiers drilled out of the anti-cannon hole and put their guns on the trenches.
There is a reason why only one platoon of soldiers is arranged to defend. If there are too many people, it is easy to cause a large number of casualties under the shell fragments. It is easy to let the Vietnamese army take advantage of the situation. A platoon of soldiers can avoid the large amount of damage caused by shells and provide our army with a buffer time.
However, the Vietnamese army did not know that we were prepared. Before they were fully prepared, they couldn't wait to pull two companies and follow the shells to rush towards our position!
What made me feel a little cold... In order to achieve the cover of the attack, when the Vietnamese army rushed to the position, the Vietnamese army's artillery fire still bombed our position as usual, so that those Vietnamese infantry charging towards us fell into shrapnel from time to time, and even a few shells exploded directly into the Vietnamese infantry group and overturned four or five people...
The Vietnamese devils were crazy. Even the volunteers had to use this trick when they had no choice but to use it on the battlefield of resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea. Of course, I used it before, which was to rush to the enemy's position with the troops and artillery fire, so I knew very well what this meant.
If we look at the number of casualties, this tactic may be a tactic, because most enemies are hiding artillery in anti-aircraft holes. Even if someone counterattacks, their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced by the smoke of gunfire and shrapnel flying everywhere. But everything has advantages and disadvantages. The price paid for this is that many Vietnamese troops will inevitably die under their own artillery fire...
This may not sound like nothing, and casualties are inevitable on the battlefield. Some people even say that they are dead anyway, and it is not the same as dying at the hands of the enemy or at the hands of their own people?
