Chapter 2116 Heavy casualties
Shanshita took the grenade and was screwing the safety cover when a red light suddenly lit up at the entrance of the tunnel. He let out a strange cry and fell to the ground, but it was still too late.The flames jetted in from the hole lasted for five seconds, and five seconds was enough to ignite all the devils at the bottom of the mountain.Miserable screams that did not resemble human voices sounded, and there were so many of them. Although Zhang Lingfu had already realized that there were devils inside, he did not expect that there were so many of them, and they would gather together. jumped.

Major Kurokuma Yamashita and Captain Sasaki Onimura, the captain of the stand-up team, their titles were not very high, but because they were the first and second commanders of the Japanese platoon at the front line of the collapsed tunnel, their deaths directly led to the appearance of command by the Japanese army there. In the chaotic situation, no one can continue to command the troops to fight for control of the collapsed tunnel.When reinforcements from the 10th Battalion came up, Nakamura Raoxiong discovered that Zangxiong Yamashita had lost contact, and it was too late when he appointed a new commander.

At about nine o'clock in the morning, as Zhang Baoqing led the troops directly under the regiment and the 12th Battalion to break through the Japanese artillery blockade and reinforce them into the tunnel, it meant that the Xuebing Army had firmly grasped this "power" that could attack the entire fortification network. door".

"First clear the southernmost bunker and tunnel, I don't care what method you use, it must be opened before dark!" After receiving the report, Rao Guohua gave an order to Wan Sen, the head of the 410th regiment who succeeded Zhang Baoqing's regiment and continued to attack.

In the battle for bunkers and tunnels, Rao Guohua realized that the Japanese army had normalized suicide tactics and realized that in the narrow tunnels, the superiority of troops could increase the casualties instead. After discussing with You Ansheng and others, Rao Guohua decided to simply Divide by region, take the regiment as the unit, and ask how much progress each regiment must make.

It was not easy to occupy the collapsed tunnel. In the end, only more than 412 people from the 11th Battalion of the [-]th Regiment survived, including Xiao Dalin and other students who were seriously injured in the first round of attack and stayed in the attack position.In addition, Zhang Lingfu and other more than [-] guards and soldiers, only five survived in the end.These guard soldiers are the elite of the [-]th Division, and they have always been Rao Guohua's treasures, but in less than an hour, only five of them survived, which shows the brutality of the battle.

A quarter of an hour after Rao Guohua's new order was conveyed, the number of casualties of the 412th Regiment was reported to the headquarters. A full regiment of 1000 or more than 200 people survived in the end, but only more than [-] people survived, including more than [-] wounded. , and they eliminated less than [-] devils.Faced with such a battle loss ratio, everyone in the headquarters was stunned.After a long time, someone said: "Fucking old man, how many people will die here?"

Rao Guohua remained silent with a livid face, but he was silently settling accounts in his heart.It is known that there are about 5000 Japanese troops in Madang Fortress. According to this battle loss ratio, it means that the Xuebing Army will eventually hand over 5000 people here.If this is the final result, even if Ma Dang can be taken down in the end, it can only be regarded as a miserable victory.After staying in the Xuebing Army for a long time, Rao Guohua couldn't help but acquire Ouyang Yun's habits.In fact, this is also a common problem of all the officers of the cadet army, that is, they look down on little devils from the bottom of their hearts, so such a victory is not acceptable to him.

None of the students of the 11th Battalion was injured, so after the collapsed tunnel was stabilized, they were carried down by stretchers one after another.Rao Guohua needed more specific battle reports from the frontline officers, so he asked Xu Mengzhen, Zhang Lingfu, and a company commander named Wang Shengyu to be brought directly to the headquarters.The three of Xu Mengzhen suffered serious injuries. Fortunately, they wore a lot of winter clothes, otherwise, not only the face and hands, but also the whole body would have been scratched.Among the three, Wang Sheng was the most seriously injured. He was hit by shrapnel in his abdomen and right leg, and shot in his left shoulder. Half of his left ear was torn off, and his two front teeth were also knocked off.Compared with him, Xu Mengzhen and Zhang Lingfu's injuries were less severe, but one of them injured their thigh and the other their buttocks, so their life in the hospital might not be better than Wang Shengyu.When Zhang Lingfu first came to the Xuebing Army, he was well-dressed and well-groomed, but now he was unkempt, his face was covered with bruises, and his hair was drenched with blood from someone, and now it was hardened on his head, looking like an adult. An unwashed beggar is no different.The cadets didn't like the officers of the Central Army. The big reason was that these guys were too good at pretending. They always looked well-dressed. They didn't look like they were going to go to the battlefield but to attend some kind of dance.Many people didn't like Zhang Lingfu when he first came, but after this battle, everyone's eyes on him have completely changed.As a soldier, being able to fight and daring to fight is the kingly way.

Rao Guohua first expressed his thanks and condolences to Zhang Lingfu, and then saluted Xu Mengzhen and Wang Shengyu respectively.Zhang Lingfu had to lie on a stretcher because his butt was injured, and he looked rather funny when he returned the salute.But they didn't laugh at him. When everyone looked at him, they were thoughtful and unabashedly appreciative. When You Ansheng looked at him, his eyes were narrowed, and he didn't know what he was talking about. idea.

"Head Zhang reported to me that the collapsed tunnel can be occupied, and the three of you played the most important role. Now I want to hear your opinions on how to fight this battle and what should be paid attention to when dealing with these devils. Colonel Zhang , you come first," Rao Guohua glanced at the three of them and said.

Zhang Lingfu saluted with difficulty, answered "Yes", and then said: "Military seat, everyone, the current Madang Fortress is an underground castle. As far as the collapsed tunnel we attacked is less than 200 meters long, there are three More than a dozen tunnel entrances. These entrances lead to the bunker and are connected to other tunnels. Military seat, the decision of the headquarters is correct. If we want to capture Madang at the lowest cost, we must launch an attack from the inside. I noticed just now that flamethrowers are very effective, and more flamethrowers should be equipped. The little devils have dug soldier pits in the tunnels. Some of these soldier pits are dormitories and warehouses for the little devils, and some are individual soldier pits. Referring to the tactics adopted by the little devils just now, I think these individual soldier pits should be used by the little devils to ambush the death squads. Another point, we should prevent the little devils from adopting collapse tactics-I paid special attention to the tunnels that were blown up by us , there are a few caverns like warehouses and dormitories with very thin support walls. I am worried that this may be deliberately done by the little devils, so that when our soldiers rush in, they will explode and collapse directly. ..."

In the battle just now, Zhang Lingfu had demonstrated superior commanding skills, which Xu Mengzhen also admitted.And when he said these words, Xu Mengzhen was even more ashamed, because he didn't notice these things.Of course, after the battle just now, he also had a good idea.

"Military seat, I have a suggestion. The actual combat has proved that the earth tanks can indeed curb the firepower advantage of the devils, so can we take a two-pronged approach, attacking from the inside point by point and at the same time, organize some brothers to use steel plates as shields directly from Shoot holes to blast the devil's bunker..."

Zhang Lingfu and Xu Mengzhen both put forward good suggestions, and Wang Shengyou also proposed the flooding method not to be outdone.So the three officers who came down from the front line actually had substantial contributions, which surprised Rao Guohua a bit.
