The beacon of youth

The Tank Battalion of the ** Brigade found several enemy tanks during the attack. Obviously, this is a tank unit of the 245th Division, a tank unit belonging to a division. Even the battle is perfect.

Instructor Li Yuming led the troops to chase after him like a hungry wolf, but what made Li Yuming anxious was that there was no result after a shell was fired.

The soldier replied anxiously: "Instructor, the shot is high, and the shells flew over the enemy tank."

"Shake down two secret positions, armor-piercing bullets."

Under Li Yuming's order, the muzzle of the m4's 75mm gun was slightly lowered, and then another shell was fired.

Li Yuming saw it for real in the periscope, and saw that the shells fired quickly hit the tank running in the front. The shells penetrated the protective steel plate of the tank and exploded inside. The high-temperature and high-pressure jets detonated the tank again. With a loud bang, the turret of the entire tank flew more than ten meters away. When the ammunition exploded, it ignited the fuel in the fuel tank at the same time, and the flames ignited all over the place.

With the help of the blazing flames, Li Yuming could see clearly that the Kuomintang's fleeing tank was Qing Yishui's Stuart, that is, it was the same model as the first few tanks seized by the ** brigade. Special is a medium-light tank with a dead weight of about ten tons. It is characterized by lightness and speed, and is very suitable for mountain combat. However, its main gun has a caliber of only 37mm, and it cannot break through the frontal protection of the M4 at all.

Li Yuming was the first to come into contact with this model of tank. He was very familiar with Stuart and understood its characteristics. Aim for the second, armor-piercing shell."

With a sound of "bang", the shell was loaded, and the second gunner replied: "The armor-piercing shell is ready."

With the sound of the gunner aiming well, an armor-piercing projectile was fired quickly.The projectile launched at high speed made close contact with the targeted second tank a few seconds later, with a "boom" explosion, the second tank was blown away again.

Two tanks were destroyed in a row, and the rest of the tanks never dared to escape again.Stopping in place, the crew members in the tank lifted the cover and strayed around.

"What the hell, you still want to run away from the bastard? Gather up and catch those alive."

There were a total of nine tanks that ran out, which should be the size of a tank company. After seeing the PLA tank group, they all raised their hands obediently.

Li Yuming was so excited this time, is this called war, and he can get good stuff every time.It feels a bit like when I was a spy company before, cool, so cool.

There were more than 245 tank soldiers of the 20th Division who were captured. The more than 20 soldiers stood together dejectedly. Li Yuming jumped out of the tank with a submachine gun and looked at the prisoners next to each other. Shouting: "Run, let me see where you are going. See those two tanks that were blown up. If you don't surrender, you will be like dead people. Do you understand? If you understand, be honest with me."

Li Yuming, who turned his head away, called out to his soldiers again: "Hey, you guys, put a few people in each vehicle, and let these prisoners drive all the tanks back. I've agreed, and you won't lose even a single part."

In addition to the two destroyed vehicles, the tank battalion captured seven Stuarts. This is a big harvest that has never been achieved since leaving Xi'an. Li Yuming was so proud that he couldn't wait to report to the brigade commander Li Yong on the phone: " Brigadier, we have caught some good stuff. We got back a tank company. The clean Stuart, although not as good as the m4, is much better than the little devil’s thin skins. It’s a pity that we killed two of them. , only seven came back. Hey, what a pity."

Li Yuming's report also reminded Li Yong, that's right, after the battle was over, I didn't see where the enemy's artillery fire was. A few vehicles, it is impossible without artillery.

"Gao Xiang, where did you go? Didn't you hear that the tank battalion brought back several Stuarts? You should pay more attention to find a way to get the enemy's artillery back. Did you hear what I said clearly? "

The artillery battalion commander Gao Xiang on the phone smiled very cunningly: "Hey, brigade commander, do you need to remind me about this? We went to do it earlier, and I want to report if you don't ask. There is an artillery battalion directly under the 245th Division. Equipped with more than 120 artillery pieces of various types, we have brought back all of them except for the ones that were damaged by the bombing. However, Brigadier Commander, I have something to tell you in advance. The number of artillery in the battalion exceeds [-], and the personnel are too tight, so you have to add some good stuff to me."

A unit with more than 120 cannons is also called an artillery battalion, that is, such a freak can only come out of the ** brigade, and everyone doesn't care what it is called, as long as it can fight, as long as it can win battles, it is called artillery The class is also successful.

It didn't take much to defeat the 245th Division. Most of the time was wasted on the final cleaning of the battlefield. Whether it was in the city or outside the city, it was simply scraping the ground. The soldiers wanted to replenish the supplies that were given to the brother troops a few days ago Get it all back, we can't be poor.

While the battalions were looting, a soldier came to report to Li Yong and Wang Chengde: "Report to the commander, there is a troop approaching our department quickly, and the personnel and number are unknown."

Li Yong hurriedly ordered the troops to prepare for battle, and the reconnaissance battalion quickly figured out the situation. After a short while, Zhang Jinsong, the reconnaissance battalion commander, ran in with a PLA cadre in a gray uniform. The commander raised his hand after seeing Li Yong and Wang Chengde Salute: "Report, the head of the 5th Regiment of the 13th Division has been ordered to come."

What the heck, I was surprised and deceitful. It turned out that the troops that rushed over were the 5th Regiment of the 13th Division that had just crossed the Qilian Mountains, and they were troops of the Second Army.

The commander was also very excited to see Li Yong and Wang Chengde, who were familiar with each other: "The brigade commander and the political commissar, we heard the sound of guns and artillery from a long distance away, and we know that there are troops fighting, but we don't know which One family was doing it, and some guessed that the Sixth Army of the Second Corps was coming, so I told them, not necessarily, it might be the ** Brigade of our army. Commander, you guys are really fierce, one guy eats up another division of the enemy, I'm so envious."

The head of the 13th Regiment was quite funny, and Li Yong also thought it was quite funny. Political commissar Wang Chengde asked curiously, "How do you guys know it's our ** brigade? Could it be that you can pinch and count?"

"What's the matter, apart from our army, the Second Corps is the only one in this area. The nearest to the Second Corps is the Sixth Army. I heard that the Sixth Army has also formed a fast column composed of cars and tanks. According to the analysis of the current situation, Those who can quickly reach this area are either the fast column of the Sixth Army or the ** brigade of our army. However, the fast column of the Sixth Army is not yet capable of swallowing up an entire division of the enemy at once, so I judge that the only ones who dare to strike so early are the You guys are on a journey." <My son, I guessed the situation after a little thought, that's my skill.

It didn't take long for the entire 13th regiment to come over. Li Yong was also very sad to see the tattered clothes on the soldiers. He climbed the snow mountain all the way, and then killed Zhangye without stopping. Cars, no tanks, come here on two feet.

"Pull the troops into the city right away, and then we will have dinner. We will make up for what your 13th regiment lacks. After eating, let the soldiers hurry up and sleep. If there is anything to do, we will talk about it tomorrow."

After Li Yong finished speaking, the head of the group replied embarrassedly: "Brigade Commander, I have troubled you a lot before crossing the Great Snow Mountain. Now there is no need for it. If there is anything that is not enough, we will solve it ourselves."

"Don't talk about the two families as a family. You can make up for yourself if you want to. You can do it later. You have to listen to us now." After Li Yong finished speaking, he asked the head of the regiment to drag the whole regiment to Zhangye City, and eat and rest quickly. After a bit of recovery, when he was not too far from the blasted city wall, Li Jiangguo, the battalion commander, ran out of the gap with a few soldiers. This guy yelled loudly when he saw Li Yong and Wang Chengde. Shouting: "The brigade commander, the political commissar, got rich, got rich."

Li Yong was a little puzzled. Li Jiangguo was no longer the old Tubalu, but a commander of the People's Liberation Army who had seen the world. The first battalion with more than 1000 people was the main combat force of the ** brigade. The army and battalion-level cadres are all tall people, and they all raise their necks when they talk. If they catch something good, this kid will make a fuss.

"Don't worry, speak slowly." Political commissar Wang Chengde was also quite surprised, logically speaking, Li Jiangguo, a veteran soldier, wouldn't lose his composure like this.

"The brigade commander, the political commissar, it's the car, it's the car, there are too many, I can't count them all at once, you say these Kuomintang idiots, why don't they run away sooner with so many cars?"

Li Yong and a large group of people, led by Li Jiangguo, came to the place where the 245th Division of the Kuomintang stored their cars. Good guy, a large area of ​​Wuyaya was covered by the grass-green canvas. There are also several hundred.

true

It’s a good thing. It’s the most popular thing in the army now. Think about it. The 245th Division of the Kuomintang didn’t rely on these cars all the way to Zhangye. A whole division has thousands of people, and there are not hundreds of cars. Li Yong couldn't play anymore, Li Yong's eyes were shining brightly. Fortunately, the cars were still intact. It would be a pity if they were blown up by the artillery fire of the ** Brigade earlier: "Li Jiangguo, watch these cars carefully. Yes, even the gasoline in the car, not a single part or screw is allowed to be lost, do you hear me?” (To be continued..)
