my bright sword career

Chapter 496 Feeling More Guilty
The headquarters is still busy, many staff officers wearing German-style 36-style military uniforms and earth-gray Eighth Route Army uniforms are either talking in low voices or yelling into the phone.

"What... the Japanese army's offensive is very fierce, asking for artillery support?
Let me tell you, now our four artillery battalions are busy supporting the brother troops, so there is no extra strength to support you?

Let me tell you, Bai Sixi, if you dare to lose a piece of ground today, I will withdraw you! "

"Snapped……"

Master Liu tapped the phone, and angrily said to the Ping political commissar at the side: "Bai Sixi of the 769 regiment is getting better and better, and he is a main force regiment guarding a semi-permanent fortification position.

Not only did the headquarters just replenish him with a hundred light and heavy machine guns, anti-tank guns, and dozens of mortars, it can be said that the firepower has increased several times at once.

It's a good thing now, when he encountered an attack from a Japanese regiment, he hurriedly called for artillery support. What is he trying to do? "

Commissar Ping gave him a Lucky Strike cigarette with a smile, and said with a smile: "This is also expected, who made our Eighth Route Army poor.

In the past, if you wanted artillery support, you could only think about it in your dreams. Now that you have finally fought a battle of wealth, you can see that the brother troops next to you have weightless artillery support and air support. It is human to want to experience the feeling of being a rich man. common sense"

"But you can't be so squeamish." Master Liu shook his head: "In the past, our soldiers only had three to five rounds of ammunition per capita, and after they finished fighting, they had to fight the Japanese army with bayonets.

Now I come to Commander Gao and take the bullets casually. I heard that some soldiers can't control themselves when they see so much ammunition. "

Speaking of this, Master Liu also felt that his old face was blushing, a little hot.

You must know that the bullets of this period are full-power rifle bullets, and a bullet weighs about 22 grams.

Among other things, if you carry 120 rounds of bullets at once, the bullets alone will weigh more than [-] kilograms.

With so many bullets on their backs, the average person might even struggle to walk, let alone fighting.

Commissar Ping also shook his head with a wry smile, "Our soldiers are really poor."

"Teacher...political commissar...it's not good, something serious happened!"

At this time, a staff officer ran over panting, with a trace of unconcealable panic on his face.

"In a panic, what happened?" Political commissar Ping couldn't help staring at this, and shouted, "Don't forget where this place is and your identity."

Commander Liu was also a bit uneasy. The place where they were located was called the United Command. In addition to the staff officers of their 129th Division, there were also a group of staff officers and officers from the United Liantai Militia. If they really wanted to make a joke, it would be the face of the Eighth Route Army. .

"Yes!"

The staff officer was not ignorant of this, but he still panted and said, "Master, just now the Liantai Flying Corps dispatched the Third Bombing Battalion, passing by the airspace near the New First Brigade.

Isn't the new brigade fighting the Japanese army? They immediately called for air support, but... But the new brigade did not report through the liaison officer, but reported it by themselves. The most terrible thing they reported was the right rear wing The coordinates of the First Heavy Artillery Battalion of the Liantai Militia! "

"what……"

Hearing this, Mr. Liu felt his eyes darkened, and his body shook a bit. Fortunately, the Political Commissar Ping on the side supported him.

Seeing this, the staff officer on the side also realized that he hadn't made his words clear, and quickly added: "Master, don't worry, although the coordinates reported by the new brigade were wrong, but fortunately, they were stopped by the liaison officer who rushed over, so nothing happened. Big mistake."

"That's good!" Hearing this, Political Commissar Ping also heaved a sigh of relief, as long as there were no casualties, otherwise he really didn't know how it would end.

Master Liu also came back to his senses, glared fiercely at the staff officer who was gasping for breath, and then flew into a rage.

"What does this Wang Beard want to do? Why didn't he report it through the liaison officer as required, but contacted air support without authorization?

Staff Officer Qiu, you call Wang Huzi immediately and ask him to come to the headquarters immediately. I want to ask him, how does he command the war? "

The liaison officer mentioned by Commander Liu Heping here is actually Gao Hongming and Political Commissar Liu Heping. After discussions, in order to provide artillery and air support to the frontline troops of the 129th Division in a timely manner, a three-person liaison team was stationed in each regiment.

The mission of this liaison team is to serve as a bridge between the two armies, and its biggest role is to help the Eighth Route Army troops call artillery fire and air reinforcements in a timely manner.

Now the new brigade has overstepped the call for air support independently of the liaison team. The worst thing is that they even reported the wrong coordinates and reported the coordinates of the rear heavy artillery battalion. This is not a mistake that can be explained. It's no wonder Master Liu is furious.

The No. 24 Artillery Battalion of the Liantai Militia is equipped with 1 M203 [-]mm heavy artillery. It can be said that this heavy artillery battalion is the core of fire support for their tens of thousands of coalition forces.

It and the Fourth Artillery Battalion undertook the task of artillery support for the entire right wing. Once destroyed, the entire right wing would lose 70.00% of the artillery support. Even children know the seriousness of the consequences.

Commissar Ping was also someone who came here in a big storm, but when he thought that the coordinates reported by the new brigade just now were not stopped in time, and the artillery battalion position was covered by dozens of tons of bombs dropped by dozens of bombers, he couldn't help feeling afraid for a while. The consequences of this are really too serious, so serious that even they can't bear it.

After taking a deep breath on his cigarette, he said: "Teacher, Wang Huzi must be punished for making mistakes, but now the front is fighting hard. Calling him back now is worried that it will affect the morale of the front line. My opinion is to call him after repelling the Japanese attack, what do you think?"

"Ping Political Commissar is serious!"

At this time, a voice sounded from the side, and the two turned their heads to see that it was Gao Hongming who had come over.

Gao Hongming looked at Mr. Liu and the political commissar who looked a little embarrassed, and said to the two with a smile, "I heard about the new brigade, and I also sent someone to check the situation.

What happened just now was that there were casualties in the liaison team of the New Fourth Regiment of the New First Brigade. Brigadier Wang temporarily sent two people out, leaving only one liaison officer at the brigade headquarters.

At that time, the liaison officer happened to go to the toilet and heard that there was air support. In desperation, Brigadier Wang ordered the staff of their brigade headquarters to carry the coordinates up through the radio, but the staff reported the wrong coordinates in a hurry.

This is an unintentional mistake, Brigadier Wang is not responsible, so you two don't need to pay too much attention to it, just pay attention next time! "

After listening to Mr. Liu and the political commissar, he was both moved and angry. The one who was moved was Gao Hongming's generosity, and the one who was angry was that the Xinyi Brigade violated the regulations without authorization and almost made a big mistake. Thinking of this, they felt even more guilty.
