The beacon of youth

Don't fight unprepared battles. Modern warfare relies more and more on logistics. The U.S. military that ended the two world wars knows this well, so a large part of its air power is used on the supply lines of the volunteers.

Facts have proved that the U.S. military’s approach is not unreasonable. The aerial strangulation battle has indeed brought great troubles to the volunteers, and our newly appointed Vice Minister Li will soon face how to find a way to solve these difficulties, and the pressure is great.

Li Yong's request is that as long as the enemy's plane shows up, he will be beaten hard, and the supply of ammunition will be sufficient.

On this point, Li Yong did not boast. The lack of supplies for the troops on the front line does not mean that there is no supplies in the rear, but that they cannot be transported, or they are blown up on the way. As long as our communication lines are well protected, even if our The logistics capability is not as good as that of the U.S. Army, and it has undergone earth-shaking changes compared to before. The situation of the Ninth Corps wearing single clothes and fighting in the severe cold of tens of degrees below zero is absolutely not allowed to happen again, otherwise it will be the negligence of the Volunteer Army's logistics department.

As expected, the hidden spots on the rear traffic line hadn't all been completed yet. On this day, there was a shrill gunshot from the top of the mountain in the distance. It was the firing sound of an American M1 rifle.

Basically, the air defense observation posts of the Korean People's Army are equipped with American m1 rifles, and they pass forward one by one in a relay manner.

Li Yong and the squad he brought with him have also recently devoted themselves to logistics work. However, the job of the guard company is not to dig holes. Their task is to prevent the enemy's spies from making trouble and sabotage.

What makes everyone unhappy is that it has been almost ten days since I came to North Korea. The work of more than 200 people is still the same as in Shigatse before, responsible for guarding and defending. As for fighting?He didn't even see the hair of an enemy, so he didn't even mention fighting.

San Niu, Xiao Cheng, and Ning Erzi, the platoon leaders, would say strange things from time to time.What kind of battle can you get by digging holes behind the ass of the big army all day long?I couldn't even catch a small fish or a small shrimp, which was strange, why couldn't even the spies see it.

The thinking of the soldiers is actually very simple. Since they can’t be assigned to the frontline combat troops, at least they have to be in the rear. Those all-pervasive spies are the best targets. Our guards and scouts are professional troops to deal with these spies. .It happened to be practiced with spies, but what is depressing is that ten consecutive days have passed.The army didn't even find a single spy, let alone a war.

Li Yong was not in a hurry at all, he thought differently from the soldiers, as the saying goes, if you have a butt, you don't have to worry about beating.no enemies?That is impossible.North Korea lacks everything, except that there is no shortage of enemies. Not seeing it doesn’t mean it doesn’t have it. Maybe the enemy’s secret agents have already sent out the news that the volunteers are going to dig hidden spots on the communication line.

This is the second largest hidden point away from the Yalu River port. It is about 100 kilometers away from the border between China and North Korea. It is also an important material transfer station in Li Yong's design. Just after the early morning of this day, the sound of anti-aircraft guns rang out. .

The large hideout excavated in the narrow valley is about to be completed.Several holes can allow multiple trucks to enter at the same time, according to Li Yong's estimate.After the completion, the food and ammunition hoarded can reach hundreds of tons. The location here is very good. Not far from the road is a high mountain with an altitude of [-] meters. , which is very beneficial for air defense.

In order to protect this important hidden point, Li Yong also tried his best, and specially applied to his superiors for the anti-aircraft artillery unit to be responsible for air defense.

This is the tragedy of not having air supremacy. It is only a mere 100 kilometers away from the national border, but it is forced by the enemy's air force to dig a hole to hide.

It would be great if our planes could also go to the sky to fight, and the transport team on the ground could deliver materials to the front line day and night, and the shortage of ammunition and food for the front-line combat troops would be greatly alleviated. Just think about it, the Volunteer Army, let alone aircraft, even has very little anti-aircraft firepower on the ground. In order to ensure that this important hidden point can be successfully built, the superiors responded to Li Yong's request and sent two anti-aircraft artillery companies.

Two anti-aircraft artillery companies, one is the anti-aircraft artillery unit of the Volunteer Army, and the other is the anti-aircraft artillery unit of the Korean People's Army. They are all equipped with the same type of Soviet-style single-barreled Sanqi artillery. Most of the soldiers in the anti-aircraft artillery unit are female soldiers.

Soldiers of the Volunteer Army feel a little strange, or novel, when they see female soldiers in the People’s Army, because although there are female soldiers in the Volunteer Army, they are all in non-combat departments, such as communications and field hospitals, front-line combat troops rarely seen here.

The soldiers of the Volunteer Army did not understand why the artillery of the People's Army used a large number of female soldiers. You must know that women are inherently weaker than men in physical strength. Responsible for transporting shells, the physical requirements are very high.

Of course Li Yong knew the reason, but he did not explain to the soldiers that war is cruel, and North Korea, which consumed a large population of young and middle-aged men, had no choice but to use female soldiers.

From the perspective of the nature of weapons, anti-aircraft artillery units are always used for defense. Compared with fighter jets, anti-aircraft artillery units are passive no matter how they fight. For example, the anti-aircraft artillery units of the Volunteer Army are very limited and need to be protected. There were so many targets, and the U.S. military planes roared in and out, and the fact that the superiors could send two artillery companies showed that they had already attached great importance to it.

Two anti-aircraft artillery companies, each equipped with eight Soviet-style single-barreled 6000 anti-aircraft guns, adding up to [-] guns. One is the Eighty-Five Cannon. The Sanqi Cannon has a small caliber and a shooting height of only [-] meters, so it is called the Sanqi Small Cannon by the soldiers.

It is not easy to have two Sanqi small artillery companies. Li Yong understands the difficulties of his superiors. Artillery firepower needs to be used in a concentrated manner. It is not the way to use troops, and the superiors probably do the same. For the sake of his vice minister of logistics, two companies were sent to the hidden spot that had just been excavated not long ago, and one of them was a company of female soldiers from the People's Army.

Although it is a small anti-aircraft gun with a poor range, it is also an anti-aircraft gun, and it is also professional equipment for shooting planes. It is the first time for Li Yuming and the soldiers of the guard company to come into contact with anti-aircraft guns at close range. They all feel very fresh. Deputy company commander He Cuihua Not only is he very interested in anti-aircraft guns, but he is also very interested in the female soldiers of the People's Army. If Li Yong hadn't stopped him, he might have joined the female soldiers of the People's Army to join in the fun.

He Cuihua kept muttering beside Li Yong: "If you know that you are going to North Korea to attack American planes, why not bring the anti-aircraft machine gun battalion from our brigade. We have sixty or seventy anti-aircraft machine guns, and the firepower is not as good as these dozen. Small cannons are weak."

He can fight as much battle as he can. Li Yong didn't expect to use these two companies to knock down all the American planes from the sky. His request to the two company commanders is to intercept the planes at At medium and high altitudes, as long as they don't dive down, the mission is completed.

The main equipment of the U.S. Far East Air Force is the F80 and F84 tactical fighter-bombers, which take into account both ground attack and air combat functions. Only when high-value targets are found, the B52 Sky Fortress is used. The B52 Sky Fortress is a large professional bomber. The method is to bomb horizontally at high altitudes and use area bombing to destroy the opponent's strength, but fighter bombers can't do it. If you want to bomb accurately, you must dive down, and once you dive to a low altitude, the danger will increase.

Li Yong believes that the concealment points of our army have not been fully completed. It is impossible for the US Far East Air Force to use heavy equipment such as the B52 from the beginning. You must know that heavy bombers are also precious equipment in the United States, which has a big business at home, and it is impossible to use them easily. However, once the U.S. military prepares to carry out air strikes on hidden points, the planes coming are likely to be F80 and F84.

As expected, in Li Yong's telescope, the planes in the sky became bigger and bigger from small black dots, from the size of a fly to the size of a sparrow, and then from a sparrow to an eagle. The planes coming were F80 and F84. If they flew closer, even the bombs hanging under their wings could be seen.

After the gunshots from the air defense post rang out, all the soldiers and civilians in the vicinity took cover, and Li Yong's heart ached, because the only troops he could use were two artillery companies, sixteen 400 small anti-aircraft guns, and the one he brought over from Shigatse. This is the entire force in Li Yong's hands, and there are only more than [-] people in total.

I used to command a brigade of tens of thousands of people to fight. Today is good. In name, I am the deputy minister of the Volunteer Army, a very high-ranking deputy minister, but I only have more than 400 people in my hand. It is not as good as the previous battalion. I am really back. Before liberation, it was the first time for these 400 people to engage in a large-scale air-to-ground confrontation with the enemy. They had no experience in flying planes, so how to win the battle all depended on the commander's ability.

Apart from him, the highest commander of the Volunteer Army and the People's Army in the vicinity is just a company commander. Of course, everyone must obey the command of Deputy Minister Li Da.

Li Yong placed the positions of the two anti-aircraft artillery companies on the top of the hill where they can exert their firepower the most, forming crossfire. If you don't dive down, there is no big threat to the hidden point.

The position of the guard company was halfway up the mountain, and multiple shooting points were set up not too far from the opening of the hidden point. Five Maxim heavy machine guns and more than 20 Czech light machine guns in the first and second rows of guards were deployed.

This is already all the equipment that the guard company can produce, and the submachine gun is really not on the table.

Can infantry light weapons also fight against aircraft?Seeing the position of the guard company, the soldiers of the two anti-aircraft artillery companies disagreed. They thought that it must be an anti-aircraft artillery to fight an aircraft, and the infantry to fight an aircraft is nonsense. say what.

Old Ba's body hasn't recovered yet, he should feel better in a few days, thank you. (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and updated faster!
