The beacon of youth

Chapter 181 Reconnaissance Battalion

Xiao Cheng said that since he was just a prisoner, Niu Ermou and Niu Ermou led them to deal with him.Xiao Cheng was so frightened that he ran out in a hurry.

Xiaocheng ran out and everyone was still laughing.Ning Erzi shouted at everyone angrily: "What are you laughing at? Didn't you just be a prisoner? What's the matter? Didn't the commander of our regiment be captured by Li Jiangguo, the first battalion commander? What's the matter? We are still the commander of the regiment now. **The People's Liberation Army treats people equally regardless of their background

As soon as the sky dawned the next morning, Zhang Jinsong and Xiao Chenggong shocked the soldiers.The excavation work was ordered by the political commissar of the head of the regiment to be careless.Everyone also knows the seriousness of the matter. If you want to block the enemy, you can't do without digging good fortifications. There is such a lesson taught by the regiment leader to them, which is to sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime. It is the guarantee of victory.

Everyone worked from the morning until the sun was about to cover the mountains, and the defensive position already had a general appearance.Trenches, small traffic trenches, individual bunkers.Bunker holes, firing positions for small artillery and heavy machine guns.At this time, the voice of the head of the reconnaissance battalion, Li Yong, came from the walkie-talkie.

Zhang Jinsong placed a soldier and a walkie-talkie on the highest point of the mountain. This mountain beam is the commanding height in the vicinity. The call quality and distance of the walkie-talkie are much better than those on the flat ground. Li Yong's voice came out of the walkie-talkie Zhang Jinsong immediately understood that the main force of the regiment was coming.The estimated well distance is about ten kilometers away.

In the expectant eyes of Zhang Jinsong and the soldiers, after a short time, the large group of independent regiments arrived. Trucks, jeeps, and various horses filled several trails. The soldiers digging fortifications on the mountain joked with each other when they saw this scene say.If it weren't for us being on the mountain, all the enemies on the mountain would be broken.The troops under the mountain will definitely suffer heavy casualties.Otherwise, why did the chiefs ask us to come here to fight against it?This geographical location is really advantageous.

Zhang Jinsong and Cheng hurriedly reported to Li Yong the situation of marching and digging fortifications in the past few days. Li Yong and Wang Chengde considered the cold protection of the troops on the way here, and saw the cave dug by the reconnaissance battalion and the engineer company All happy and think this is a good solution to the problem.

Li Yong walked into the cave and saw that the space inside was too large. It would be no problem to put a platoon of dozens of people, but no more. He hurriedly discussed with the political commissar Wang Chengde to let the troops start work immediately, and seized all the time to expand the cave dug by the reconnaissance battalion first. , strive for everyone to live in the cave tonight.

Say a thousand or dry.Li Yong and Wang Chengde commanded the soldiers to divide the work by battalion, and each battalion had to dig at least one big cave.Not only must people be able to live in it, but weapons and equipment must also be able to be placed in it.Of course, the large-caliber howitzers and cars of Gao Xiang's battalion couldn't be put in.

The order was lively, and thousands of people shouted together.But in the mountains of the Chakou area, thousands of people are not too many.Li Yong walked to the top alone while everyone was busy.Carefully observe the geography of the Fork area.

According to Li Yong's vision, if he wanted to completely block the road down the mountain, at least the defensive front had to be opened several hundred meters, so as to effectively control the enemy's escape route.

Ye Si's order is to stick to it for five days and nights.Can this task be accomplished with the strength of the independent regiment?Although the independent group is said to be powerful, it only has more than 4000 people.Compared with the enemy's large corps, the strength is much worse.

What the independent regiment can rely on now is its super firepower, favorable geographical location and the tenacious will of the soldiers, which is incomparable to any brigade-level unit in the entire Northwest Field Army.

Another advantage of the independent regiment is its rapid maneuverability.It is estimated that the headquarters gave this task to the independent regiment because of this reason, but the strong mobility is only reflected in the march, and holding the position has nothing to do with the strong mobility.

Another point is that the ammunition consumed by the super firepower is also huge, and the burst submachine guns and machine guns consume ammunition several times faster than rifles.How can the independent regiment ensure the supply of ammunition while giving full play to its own advantages.

When Li Yong was nervously thinking about the problem, Wang Chengde, the political commissar, came over: "Dayong, what are you thinking about?"

"Old Wang, I'm thinking about how our regiment can complete the tasks assigned by the headquarters. Although I told everyone during the meeting that we must fight off the entire regiment and block the enemy, but we can beat our entire regiment." It's not a good way, how to protect yourself while completing the task, this is the best result.

Wang Chengde: "Yes, our regiment should be the strongest regiment-level combat force in the entire field army. But even so, this task is difficult to complete. The task of blocking the attack is more difficult as you go to the end. The personnel and ammunition will be more and more difficult. The less they come, the more crazed the enemy will be."

"Old Wang, I have thought over and over again that the enemy's artillery poses the greatest threat to us. There are several artillery regiments in Liu Kan's army. The appearance of the enemy, mixed with the chaos. See the opportunity and do our best to destroy the enemy's artillery, as much as can be destroyed, as long as the enemy's

Can't exert power.Our casualties can be greatly reduced.If we just attack our position upwards, we should be sure to block the enemy for a few days

Wang Chengde clapped his hands vigorously: "Dayong. Your idea is great. The enemy is in a mess now. If we have an army that can sneak in at this time, we can take advantage of it. I agree with you. Thoughts, which troops are you going to send in?"

"Too many people can't do this mission, and too few people can't do it. I'm going to send a battalion to infiltrate the enemy's main force, so I send Zhang Jinsong's reconnaissance battalion. Zhang Jinsong has enough brains, according to the division of labor of our regiment This is also the job of their reconnaissance battalion, what do you think?"

Wang Chengde: "Yes, in our regiment, among the battalion-level cadres, the fifth battalion commander Wang Huhu is the most stable, and Li Jiangguo and Zhang Jinsong are the most flexible. The reconnaissance battalion is the most suitable for this job. The troops, I will send them there, but they have been digging fortifications for two days in a row, and their physical strength is exhausted, should they be given a rest? .

Li Yong: "Okay, let's do this. Now let them hurry up to eat and sleep, and leave in the middle of the night today

Zhang Jinsong was very excited when he received the order. This is an old soldier who is used to life in war.There is a natural love for the battlefield.

Li Yong told him that the enemy's main artillery weapons are [-]-caliber howitzers and some [-]-caliber wild mountain guns, as well as the [-]-caliber infantry guns used by some little devils before. The most powerful is the American [-]-caliber howitzer. The range of this kind of artillery is about five to ten kilometers, so the range of activities of their battalion should also be within this range. As long as most of the howitzers within five to ten kilometers from the independent regiment can't fire, their battalion has completed the task.

This is a difficult task.Maybe they will be made dumplings by the enemy, and Li Yong's order to Xi is to complete the task as much as possible and save himself as much as possible.

After working hard in the middle of the night, more than a dozen large caves were finally dug out behind the mountain, and each cave could accommodate a battalion of troops. The temperature also increased.

The soldiers staying in the big cave boasted that the brothers in the reconnaissance battalion had come up with a good idea, otherwise how would the top of the big stop treat people?Barren hills and bald collars.There is no need to fight with the enemy, and more than half of them will freeze to death.

Li Yong and Wang Chengde were standing in front of the soldiers of the reconnaissance battalion who were about to set off at this time. More than 400 soldiers in the reconnaissance battalion had already changed into Kuomintang military uniforms.Standing there neatly now.

"Comrades, everyone already knows the situation, and the task is clear. Our regiment has to stand here for five days and nights. To be honest, this task is very difficult. The Kuomintang's large army is not face-to-face. What is the difficulty? Difficulty In terms of the enemy's firepower. The enemy has a large number of artillery. After the battle begins, our defensive positions will be bombarded continuously. Think about what the position will be like at that time. The casualties of our regiment under the continuous artillery bombardment will be how big?

Your target is the enemy's artillery, and you must do everything possible to get into the enemy's presence.Destroy the enemy's cannons, no matter what method you use, as long as you can achieve the goal, I have discussed with your battalion commander and instructor, and after departure, the platoon will act alone as a unit.Each platoon has a talking set, and the distance between the platoons should not be too far, so as to support each other. It is best for each platoon to grab a tongue first.Find out the enemy's designation and troop system.The distance of activities should not exceed about ten kilometers from our main position. Of course, if there are special circumstances, you can handle it yourself, but there is one thing that must be remembered. No matter what you do, you must not suffer, understand?

More than 400 soldiers from the reconnaissance battalion shouted in the cold wind in the second half of the night: "Understood.

Political commissar Wang Chengde: "Comrades, every bit of your efforts will bring more hope to our regiment's main position. Every time you destroy an enemy artillery, the pressure on our main position will be relieved. The regiment leader and I waiting for news of your victory

By the faint moonlight and starlight.The soldiers of the reconnaissance battalion set off under the leadership of the battalion commander Zhang Jinsong. The soldiers lined up in a column and hurried away from the small road behind the mountain, and gradually disappeared from the sight of the regiment leader Li Yong and the political commissar Wang Chengde.

Looking at the soldiers who are gradually going away.Political commissar Wang Chengde asked: "Dayong, do you think Zhang Jinsong and the others can complete the task? Although your method is good, it is a bit too difficult for the soldiers.

Li Yong: "A good army grows under pressure. It goes well in war. Some friends are not satisfied with the update of the old bus. It is a matter of time for the old bus to think more. It will depend on the situation later. , It would be nice to have more. Finally, thank you for your support. These chapters are a bit dull. But the military text can't be written from the beginning to the end, there still needs to be some foreshadowing. That's all.
