Chapter 446 A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity

1918年7月14ri12:30布祖卢克镇乌拉尔第三骑兵师指挥部

"Master, don't our battalion mortars fire? The artillery doesn't fire? We don't need to be so polite to Yegorov. They are now bullying us with their numbers, not our weapons to bully them. Cousin, I feel that you are now commanding and fighting more and more like a bodhisattva! When we fought against the Austro-Hungarian Empire on the Eastern Front, our weapons and equipment were far worse than what we have now, but how happy are we to kill?"

Nerikov's cousin, chief of staff of the [-]rd division and brigade commander of the [-]th brigade, Nerikovsky, was still babbling on the sidelines. Looking around, the battlefield was a gray ocean, and the gunshots sounded one after another. Under the firepower of heavy machine guns, the indomitable Soviet Red Army soldiers were lying on the ground and fighting back with the Mosin Nagant rifle in their hands.Fast update without pop-up windows

At this time, the firing speed of the coalition platoon's mortar shells has dropped significantly. On the battlefield, there are only areas where the Soviet Red Army is relatively dense. .

"Egorov is unambiguous. The first attack sent three regiments of troops to pass my order. The heavy machine guns stop shooting and prepare to move the position. The light machine guns are ready to shoot. I want to see what other tricks Yegorov has. Didn't use it!" Nerikov murmured while looking at the situation on the battlefield with a telescope.

"Cousin, I think our ammunition is enough, it's better to bombard him with a cannon. The platoon mortars are too unsatisfactory. It's not easy for the other party to lie on the ground so deadly that the mortar's lethality is not easy!"**** Ski was still muttering unwillingly.

"Don't be in a hurry to defend the position and play the leading role. The machine guns and cannons must be used in more critical places. Hasn't the artillery observation post in the clock tower found the position of the enemy's reserve team? Is Yegorov only planning to send out these 6000 people to attack? This is too exaggerated Is there any news from Negev's fifth brigade?" Nerikov turned around and asked.

"Reporting to the division commander, the artillery observation post in the bell tower has not detected any movement of the opponent's reserve team It’s empty and there’s no Soviet Red Army trying to cross the river!” A communications staff officer called the lookout post in the bell tower and asked a few words before putting down the phone and reporting.

"Reporting to the division commander, the radio stations of the two regiments of the fifth brigade are not in contact. However, the two artillery companies and two cavalry companies of the fifth brigade have moved closer and hidden in the woods on the opposite bank of Buzuluk Town. Although the wired phone is separated The river cannot be crossed for a while, but the artillery companies on both sides of the river can be directed to fire with the semaphore!" Another combat staff officer reported.

"Could the Fifth Brigade, Commander, have collided with Budyonny's cavalry division and fought? So why can't the radio be turned on but the guns can't be heard? Could it be that both sides have detoured tens of kilometers away? ? " Dawski asked worriedly from the side.

"It's possible that when we surveyed the banks of the Buzuluk River and the Domashika River, we had to go at least 20 kilometers south to find a suitable ferry crossing. The 20 kilometers in the middle of the river are full of currents, towering eddies on the banks of the Trent, and it is not suitable at all. Cross the river, but don't worry, as long as you don't rush into the fifth brigade, the two regiments will only have to deal with the other brigade, at least you won't lose!"

Nerikov is obviously very confident in the troops led by his cousin and fifth brigade commander Negev. Speaking of which, the combat effectiveness of the sixth brigade led by his cousin ** is really weaker than that of the fifth brigade. If it wasn't for the division commander Nerikov, he would personally hold the line and command the sixth brigade guard Buzuluk.

以**夫斯基那个毛糙沉不住气又好张扬的xing子这会儿第六旅两个炮兵连携带的炮弹估计早被这厮挥霍一空即使以75mm山野炮每分钟she击6发的频率持续发动炮击第六旅炮兵连携带的炮弹也只够打20分钟不到哪像现在从早7点到中午12点半第六旅足足和敌人纠缠作战了五个半小时依然保有足够的弹药用于下一步的作战。

With the order of the commander of the coalition army, Nerikov, the palpitating sound of heavy machine gun fire that lasted for half an hour stopped one after another. The heads of the Red Army officers and soldiers temporarily dissipated, many Red Army soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help raising their heads to look around, obviously not understanding what happened, could it be that the enemy's heavy machine guns were red, and the barrels couldn't continue to shoot? .

With the cessation of the heavy machine guns, the roar of the mortars in the coalition positions also stopped The unnecessary shooting battlefield fell silent for a while, and the atmosphere was so weird that people couldn't figure it out.

And the sky is still cloudy and tumbling, obviously it's not that the coalition air force has arrived on the battlefield, so?Why did the coalition forces stop shooting?

Is it just because there is not a single standing Soviet Russian Red Army soldier alive on the entire battlefield, and the more than 4500 Red Army infantry trembling all over the ground aroused the pity and sympathy of the coalition forces?

Although the air-cooled heavy machine guns of the coalition forces are not so hot that the barrels are red, it is obvious that continuous shooting makes the barrels hot. For the heavy machine guns, at least three machine gun firepower bunkers were set up as true and false targets and transfer positions. Therefore, after the shooting stopped, the heavy machine guns of the coalition began to shift positions and change to new positions to prepare for shooting.

In the crash training course for battlefield commanders held by the Allied Forces Command, heavy machine guns and mortars must prepare at least two to three spare shooting positions and positions during combat, which is one of the operational principles of fire support weapons.

"Comrade Yegorov, what is the enemy doing? Why have the machine guns and mortars stopped firing? Could it be that the ammunition has run out? This is great! Hurry up and blow the charge!" Kniagnitsky, political commissar of the group army As soon as his eyeballs rolled, he regained his confidence.

"Prepare to blow the horn! When the time comes, seize the opportunity and charge! Kulik! Your heavy machine gun battalion and those two mountain cannons are ready to fire and suppress the machine guns and mortars of the opposing coalition army for the infantry regiment of Inza's division! Inza, your main force The regiment must seize the opportunity to rush forward when the opponent's firepower is too late to replenish and adjust! Kikweize and Ust-Your two regiments also launched a full-line attack to attract more firepower!"

"The two regiments of Sami and Khadinyev's reserve team jumped out of the trenches and launched an attack after the charge sounded, focusing on the western sector and following the main regiment of the Inza Division. Kulik's heavy machine gun battalion and artillery will try their best to open up the opponent's position. The gap suppresses the opponent's firepower! Do you understand?!"

Although Yegorov didn't understand why the coalition forces were always using machine guns and artillery shyly and implicitly, could it really be that the political commissar who knew nothing about military affairs but liked to come up with random ideas said that the opponent's ammunition consumption was too high and not enough?

But no matter what the opportunity, is it possible to take advantage of the opponent's heavy machine gun to move the position and not rush at this time? When Yegorov gave an order, several division commanders and Kulik, who was in charge of commanding the artillery, nodded fiercely to express their understanding!

"Blow the charge! Attack across the board!" Yegorov waved his hand fiercely and seized the opportunity to launch a general attack!

As the rear of the Soviet Red Army surged, the loud and clear charge horn sounded, the Soviet Red Army soldiers all over the mountains and plains jumped up from the ground, holding the Mosin Nagant rifles with long stabs in their hands, stepping on the ground, the blood of the dead comrades-in-arms, and the grass in their mouths Shouting the deafening "Ula" sound, the whole line rushed towards the coalition position, and the momentum was even more amazing than when they charged just now!

前面是步兵15师、16师和23师三个步兵团剩下的4500人后边紧跟着从战壕里跃出来的是步兵17师和19师的两个团近4000人在4公里宽1公里多点纵深的战场近万苏俄红军战士发起了悍不畏死的冲锋。
