Bright Sword Military System

Chapter 1639 Siege is easy and defense is difficult

From the coordination of the whole battle, Wang Xuexin needs the monk to be punctual.

Because when the Siping battle started, on the other side, the new regiment would also launch an attack on a devil brigade blocking the intersection... the new regiment was the first army to reinforce Siping, and there will be two infantry regiments stationed in Siping to help defend .

But this can't be blamed on the monk, he called back Wang Xuexin aggrieved: "Commander, I didn't expect the devil to be beaten so easily, it took only ten minutes to beat it down, originally I thought it would take at least an hour! "

Wang Xuexin had no choice but to order: "Organize defense immediately, and pay attention to mobilizing the people to organize militias!"

"Yes!"

The devil's reaction was slower than Wang Xuexin imagined.

Originally, Wang Xuexin thought that the reconnaissance brigade would need to fight one or two tough battles before the new regiment arrived. In fact, the new regiment arrived at Siping almost at the same time as the devils, so the special forces of the reconnaissance brigade had no practical meaning to fight the devils head-on.

It was later that Wang Xuexin realized that this was not the case.

The reason why the devils arrived so slowly is because the reconnaissance brigade played a role.

This was still the monk's idea. He said to Shi Sha: "Look, our helicopter is useless after entering the city. If it's used for defense, it's a fool. It doesn't fly high or fast, and it's easy to get caught. The devil's machine gun was shot down! If it stops in the city, it will be blown up by the devil's artillery fire, we have to use it!"

"Who says it's useless?" Shi Sha said, "Let's fly out unexpectedly to attack the attacking devils..."

"Isn't this dangerous?" The monk replied: "This thing is the treasure of our reconnaissance brigade. You are willing to let them fight a tough battle with the devils? That is the regular army of the devils. At least half of them will be lost in this battle!"

Monk guessed it was right, the Devils reinforcements must have anti-aircraft firepower, and the helicopters of the Eighth Route Army at this time only have the bottom armor that can barely block the rifle bullets.

Shi Sha said: "This is not to complete the task, is there no way?"

However, the monk didn't think so. He thought about it for a while, and immediately ordered the helicopter to take the scouts to occupy the high ground.

This is the strength of the helicopter. For it, the high ground is a matter of raising the altitude. Moreover, it is much safer to hide the helicopter on the high ground. The pilot only needs to find a flat ground on the reverse slope, or open up a landing path for the helicopter after the scout descends. Space, these are not difficult.

But it is difficult for the devil.

Because these highlands guard the roads and railways at the foot of the mountain, although there are only a dozen people on the highlands, there are guns and cannons ([-] small cannons), and the devils have to be skinned if they want to break in.

Once the devils launch a strong attack on the high ground, the scouts will just guard for a while, and then retreat to the position of the helicopter on the reverse slope... "Huhuhu" will take the helicopter to stay away from this "place of right and wrong", leaving only the devils staring there up.

This is the reason why the devil's reinforcements came late.

After knowing this, Wang Xuexin couldn't help but secretly praised: This monk, it seems that he has figured out the knack of special operations!

The city of Siping was recovered smoothly, and at a very small cost, Wang Xuexin let go of half of his hanging heart.

Although the population of Siping at this time was less than 10, the Eighth Route Army and the stubborn army in history invested more than 90 troops to fight for this place.

In the end, the Eighth Route Army annihilated 6000 stubborn troops at a cost of 5 and won Siping.

During the three years of the Northeast Liberation War, the Eighth Route Army only sacrificed a total of more than 3 people.

In other words, in order to fight Siping, the Eighth Route Army paid more than half of the total casualties, which shows the importance of Siping.

Now, because the devils concentrate their forces on the front lines and borders, the internal forces are empty. It can be said that it is luck that the Eighth Route Army took down such an important city with only more than 300 casualties (mainly the casualties of the Xinyi Regiment). .

However, siege is easy and defense is difficult. Wang Xuexin immediately transferred the reconnaissance brigade back from Siping, and handed over its defense to Xinyi regiment and the two infantry regiments that arrived later... The reconnaissance brigade and helicopters are not used for regular defensive warfare Yes, although their combat effectiveness will not be worse than any army.

Of course, Ding Wei is in charge of the overall situation in Siping. After he arrived in Siping, he fought against the devil reinforcements and organized the whole city to prepare for gas bombs.

Ding Wei knew very well that the devil's poison gas bombs were much more terrifying than conventional attacks.

However, it is much easier to use the cover of urban houses to prevent gas bombs: all the ventilation holes of the houses are blocked with bricks and broken soil, and sandbags are prepared at the positions of windows and doors. Poison gas is kept outside the house.

The most important thing is that Ding Wei has made anti-virus preparations for tanks and armored vehicles. The gaps in the tanks are all sealed with cotton cloth, and a cloth tape is glued to the edge of the hatch cover with paste...The paste is actually thick Rice paste, there is no glue in the old society, only paste is used, and a layer of cloth is added to brush a layer of paste when the bottom is put on, and then it is sewn tightly with a needle and thread and flattened with a heavy object, so it becomes a shoe sole.

Normally, the tank cover is opened when the tank needs to breathe, and the hatch cover is closed when the devils are firing gas bombs, so as to ensure as much oxygen in the tank as possible.

Half-track vehicles are semi-open, so only the cab can be sealed.

However, they don't need to be exposed to the enemy's poisonous gas outside the whole time. Ding Wei prepared a few small warehouses for them. They can hide in the warehouses when the devils use gas bombs, and go out to fight after the poisonous gas is almost dispersed.

Just when Ding Wei was almost ready, there was suddenly no sound on the battlefield, and the devils who had been pouring into the city suddenly retreated...

Ding Wei's defense method is based on the houses in the city, so he gave up the defense lines and city walls outside the city from the beginning.

As tempting as those fortifications were, there were even bunkers and gun towers built by the devils.

But Ding Wei knew that they would not be useful against the devils, especially if the devils used poison gas bombs, hiding in these fortifications would be a dead end.

Therefore, the devil's reinforcements entered the city directly as soon as they attacked.

The devils thought that the Eighth Route Army would not have time to organize defenses, but after entering the city, they discovered that the inside was solid: the Eighth Route Army was a combination of skirmishers hiding in houses, tanks and half-track vehicles.

The streets in Siping are very straight. As long as the tanks and half-track cars are placed in the middle of the street, there is almost no possibility for the devils to hide. Coupled with the continuous cold guns from the two wings... It can be said that every street in the city has been developed by the Eighth Route Army. trap.

At this time, as soon as the devils withdrew, Ding Wei immediately realized that the devils were going to use poison gas bombs!
