From to 1935 2020

Lin Husan came to this judgment.

Afterwards, neither of the two sides was able to fight head-to-head bloody battles, so it started on this line of defense.

From hundreds of meters in front of the front of the mountain, it was built from the beginning. It was dignified and dug into a jagged standard trench. Cat ear holes can be seen everywhere in the trench. It is a cross-fire point designed according to the experience of the European World War I. This is only the real line of defense. The situation in the first trenches.

After nearly half an hour of heavy shelling, the Japanese army began to attack.

The assault squad of hundreds of people formed a skirmish formation and advanced towards the Red Army position.The two sides began to shoot at a relatively long distance.

Within 300 meters, the Red Army gunmen and the Japanese army were at a disadvantage.However, the addition of a large number of sniper rifles changed this. The advanced weapons allowed the elite shooters of the Red Army to try to kill the "fire observers" who looked like officers and binoculars in the attacking Japanese army from 600 meters away.

In order to eliminate these dangerous elements, the Red Army also prepared a large number of "observation posts". They either directly guided the nearby snipers to concentrate on killing, or called the artillery positions behind to guide the artillery to cover the opponent.

The Red Army, which had dug trenches in advance and had a geographical advantage, "accidentally" gained the upper hand in this kind of positional warfare.

From the disastrous defeat of the Five Anti-Warriors to the Battle of Xiangjiang, Lin Husan had fought too many "painful" battles in disadvantaged positions.

"A beggar can't compete with the Dragon King", this is what the resigned Chairman Li Runshi used to say around the time of the Five Antis.

Lin Husan was deeply impressed by that dark history.

After the Long March, with the rapid emergence of the Red Army, long before the Battle of Shanxi, at the Red Army's internal military meeting, a very important topic was "how to adapt to the new era, new situation, new environment, and new strategic requirements." , to find a new tactic that best suits the Red Army's own conditions."

He explained Lin Husan more specifically:

"How to fight a specific battle? I can't answer you. Because of different battles and different operational requirements, the combat art of front-line commanders is different. Don't be dogmatic, neither blindly follow the Soviets, nor Blind Xiaohuang, the future man, directly copied it to you, the fighting experience of the future Lin Husan. You can learn anything, try anything, think more, explore more, and be more realistic! Remember, the future Lin Husan There is also a difference between Husan's soldiers and Lin Husan's soldiers now! Only the tactics that suit you and the Red Army are the best tactics!"

During the few months of rest, the officers of the various armies of the Red Army conducted the most discussions and summaries on military tactics. In the face of new opponents in the new era and new environment, everyone was actually trying to figure out how to fight.

After Bayannaoer, "there was no fighting to fight early", Lin Husan was actually the one who did the most homework in the Red Army.He found that many officers and soldiers of the Jinsui Army who were captured had participated in the Great Wall War of Resistance, and they were like treasures.He did not hesitate to condescend to learn from them one by one, and discussed the tactics used by his opponents in fighting the Japanese army in the past.

He has been doing homework since the day he crossed the lawn, his mind has been moving, and he has not stopped for a day, and today is his exam period...

When Lin Hu started to "hand in the paper", Hisao Tani, who was opposite him, immediately realized that he had really bitten a very hard steel pea.

The opponent on the opposite side was very slippery. The artillery units supported by the Japanese army seemed to cover the main position with shells, but the effect of each shelling seemed to be quite bad.As soon as the shelling ended, all the firepower points were immediately revived in situ, so that every infantry assault would encounter a strong counterattack.

In the past, the tactics used to fight the Central Army and the Jinsui Army were very effective, but here they also met their nemesis.

The observers in the assault force, the officers, are always covered by dense firepower early and targeted to kill.

The single-soldier shooting technique that the imperial army is proud of does not have the upper hand at all when shooting at the opponent from a long distance.The opponent used a large-caliber rifle, and the killing effect of a single shot was even more shocking on the battlefield.It even caused many imperial warriors to collapse directly.

That kind of large-caliber rifle, sniping and hitting enemy infantry, is extremely terrifying, and it also has amazing penetrating lethality against machine guns with shields. In front of it, traditional machine gun shields are like paper. Penetrating, while damaging the gun body, also kills the shooter behind.

Less than an hour after the official start of the war, the cumulative casualty data sent back from various places on the front line has exceeded [-].

This terrifying number almost made Hisao Tani think that his subordinates had reported an extra zero.

-------------------- Chapter 175 Request for tactical guidance --------------------

When Gu Hisao thought that his subordinates reported an extra zero, Lin Husan was also surprised by the number of casualties in his own troops.

Several fronts add up to more than 260 casualties!

During the first-line battle, the eight companies lost a quarter of their troops within an hour. This figure also surprised Lin Husan.

The Red Army fighting at home first built solid positions, sawtooth trenches, traffic roads connecting the reserve team, and anti-shelling cat ear holes everywhere.According to the Japanese Army’s Tactical Code of Operations, the targeted “false first, then real” arrangement: before the bombardment, the positions were basically emptied, and only observation posts were arranged, and the infantry was sent into the positions only after the bombardment was over.

He had done all the preparations he could think of, and the start was perfect. The devil's shelling methods were also carried out according to the script he imagined, and the casualties caused by each shelling were very small.

But what Lin Husan did not expect was that the Red Army, which was on the defensive side and had the advantage of defensive positions, still suffered such a big loss.

It was the grenadiers and light artillery in the Japanese army that caused the biggest loss on the front line, as described in the materials given by Huang Ke.

The Type 50 grenadier is an improved version of the Taisho Ten Years, with a caliber of 431 mm, a total gun length of 260 mm, a barrel length of 4.7 mm, and a total gun weight of [-] kg. It is closer to an "ultra-light mortar".Grenadier squads can even charge with infantry.

The killing radius of the grenade is about 5 to 8 meters. If a grenade falls in the crowd, it can kill and injure dozens of people. When the Japanese army attacked, each assault team had multiple 2-person grenadier teams to cooperate. action.

Lin Husan was reminded by Huang Ke that he knew the importance of grenadiers in the Japanese offensive system.The attempted coping method is "focused care."Set up special observers, gunners, and snipers on the battlefield to focus on destroying the enemy's grenadiers.

The 75mm mortars and twenty 60mm mortars for deployment are sharp weapons against grenadiers. The only disadvantage is that they are "too expensive".On the battlefield, every time the Red Army fired a cannon, Commissar Nie, who was watching the battle with a binoculars, trembled in his wallet.The 60mm caliber mortar is a weapon that appeared in the hands of the Red Army in advance because of Huang Ke. Since it had to wait for the Soviet Union to deliver the relevant 75mm carbon steel pipe raw materials, it was put into production late, and it was not equipped with the Red Army until recently. On the contrary, the number is less than the 82/[-] mortars that are heavily equipped in the Jinsui Army.

"The War of Resistance is an overall war, a protracted war, and a war of attrition. Not only do you have to win this battle, but you also have to conclude after the war how to win the war in the most economical way with the least sacrifice."

Lin Hu observed the situation on the battlefield through the binoculars, and when he was thinking about when to bet on the hole, Political Commissar Nie was thinking about the economic account.Japan's national power is stronger than that of the Red Army, and the future war of resistance will be a protracted war. When the extravagant use of artillery like today's method of fighting becomes an all-out war, the military workers here in the Red Army will not be able to sustain it.

The use of mortars and long-range snipers did help the Red Army suppress the Japanese grenadiers very well, but after the few grenadiers who slipped through the net fired, the shells they fired also caused considerable casualties to the Red Army's firepower points.During this period, the quality of the gunners of the Japanese army was frighteningly high, and often a few rounds of shells could take out the machine gun positions and heavy firepower of the Red Army.

Fortunately, the artillery position is not at the front but at the far rear. After being taken care of, the number of grenadiers who can break into the range is not large.But even so, two mortar positions were hit by it, causing a lot of casualties.The machine gun positions on the front line suffered even greater losses.

Within an hour of the battle, the Red Army had lost eight machine gun groups. Of course, the situation was even more serious on the attacking Japanese side, with a total of seventeen machine gun groups losing their combat effectiveness.

"Baga, why is the firepower of this gang of communists so fierce! How could the losses be so great?"

"Commander, when will the tanks be dispatched to crush them, the small cannons of these little devils are really accurate!"

Both Lin Husan and Gu Hisao were amazed at the huge loss they suffered.Compared with Hisao Gu, Lin Husan has more cards in his hands. He has field artillery, which can destroy Gushou's artillery positions within the range at a longer distance, but he has temporarily suppressed this big killer. He has to wait Use it at the best time.

No way, shells are really too expensive!The price of a round of 76.2 shells is a small gold bar, and this kind of wild artillery shells cannot be produced domestically, at most they can only be "reloaded".

The current Lin Husan has not yet grown into the future "I only want Tashan", rich and powerful Commander Lin, and now he still has the remaining mentality of "rich life is poor", and he still can't let go of his hands and feet when "playing guns".For example, on the battlefield today, Lin Husan was heartbroken when he saw a mortar being mobilized to fire multiple shells in a row just to destroy an opponent's two-man grenadier team.

"The shells of the 75mm mortar are too expensive, and the 60mm mortar is more cost-effective, and it moves faster and is more convenient to transfer. No wonder it became the main force of our army later."

However, the Red Army soldiers who were shooting at the Japanese army on the front line had the greatest insight, but the devils on the opposite side had very accurate marksmanship.A good shooter starts aiming and shooting from 400 meters away, and the hit rate is quite good.Fortunately, the Red Army has a professional sniper rifle. With the help of the 2.2x Springfield scope, it can even out the gap and gain the upper hand.

But after all, the number of guns equipped with this mirror is limited. When the Japanese infantry advanced to between 200 meters and 300 meters, the overall quality advantage of their shooters was immediately reflected. The shooting persisted for only a few minutes before causing a large number of casualties.When the number of shooters on both sides is equal, when shooting at a distance of 200 meters, the number of casualties of the Red Army is twice that of the opponent.And those shooters with sniper scopes also became the targets of the opponent's "key care", and the casualties were even greater.

"Baga! The Red Army on the opposite side, why are there so many grenades for individual soldiers?"

On the other hand, Hisao Tani is also having a headache for the opponent's grenadiers.

The Red Army was able to withstand the Japanese attack at a distance of 200 meters without collapsing, and the grenadiers also played a huge role.

The grenadiers, which were added at the cost of wasting an infantry formation, held the "small cannon crossbow" invented by Huang Ke, and began to show off their power within a distance of 200 meters. Lin Husan regarded the "large slingshot" invented by Huang Ke as a I installed a grenade launcher, although the infantry rifles on both sides can’t shoot you, but our "slingshot grenade" bounces farther than you, "R is greater than justice" (R means radius, think of it as the face of 'milk' ).Moreover, Lin Husan already had more troops than his opponent, and a defensive position could luxuriously place half to one squad of grenadiers as needed.

During this period, the Japanese infantry also had grenade preparations, but their range was about 120 meters, the craftsmanship was complicated, the fuze was poor, and there was even a problem of early explosion, and it took a long time to prepare for launch. It was actually a very failed weapon.

Huang Ke's small yellow crossbow accounted for the staffing, but the warhead was cheap and easy to manufacture.If you aim the small cannon crossbow at a target and eject the same number of grenades at the same time, you can clear a "lifeless" area on the battlefield in an instant.

According to Huang Ke: This is called the poor beggar's version of the grenadier TOT shooting method.

Tani Hisao suffered more than 500 casualties in one hour, and nearly half of the unlucky ones were blown out by this poor beggar's version of "TOT shooting".

The effect is very good, and the loss is also very large. The [-] rounds of specially-made ejection grenade warheads were shot out in one hour.It seems that there are not many, but the grenades of this period are filled with real TNT explosives, the worst is high explosives, and the lethality of the warheads is very large.If it is filled with black powder like the old-fashioned frontier area, it will not have this power at all.

After an hour of fighting, the Japanese army temporarily retreated and rested, and the same was true for the Red Army.Both sides are licking their wounds, both sides are summing up experience, and both sides realize that the other side is an extremely dangerous opponent.

With the temporary ceasefire, the gunfire from various fronts on both sides gradually disappeared.

"Four heavy machine guns were damaged, two were seriously damaged, and two were slightly damaged. All of them were lost by shelling. The maintenance team is urgently repairing them. The latter can be repaired soon."

"Six light machine guns were damaged. The machine gun crew sacrificed seven shooters and injured 18..."

During the repair period, Lin Husan looked at the summary of casualty reports from various fronts, with a serious expression on his face.He obviously had all the advantages of the right time and place, but suffered so many casualties within an hour, he finally understood what Huang Ke meant by "the strongest light infantry of World War I" he said to him.

"65 people were sacrificed and 190 people were injured."

An ejected grenade has a charge of about 30 grams. In one hour, Lin Hu's third department knocked out 45 rounds, and the expensive "charge" is equivalent to [-] kilograms!In addition, the Red Army also destroyed [-] rounds of mortar shells of various calibers.In the Ruijin period, if Lin Husan wasted as much as he is now, not to mention the chairman would not let him go, even Li De would jump out and kill the "prodigal son Lin Husan".

You must know that Lin Husan's ammunition consumption in one hour exceeded the consumption of shells during the Red Army's second counter-attack.But this is because the quality of the soldiers is temporarily unable to surpass the Japanese army, relying on the consumption of shells in exchange for battlefield advantages.

If you want to win without an individual soldier's quality advantage, you must either exchange "money" or exchange more lives.

And the result of such loss...

"176 people were broken and 417 people were injured."

Gu Hisao heard the battle damage reported below, and his face became darker.After fighting for an hour, nearly one-tenth of the soldiers were lost, and as a result, they didn't even touch the edge of the opponent's first position.

As long as he has a normal mind, he can already judge that the so-called surprise attack on Baotou has failed, and it will become more dangerous if he doesn't leave.

After listening to the number of casualties reported below, Hisao Tani frowned impatiently and cursed.

"Baga, Baga, why hasn't Army Aviation's plane arrived yet!"

Then he looked silently at his chief of staff.

"Yagawa-kun, what do you think? They haven't dispatched their chariots yet!"

Gu Hisao had already realized that the situation was not good.

"Are you afraid?"

Yanagawa Hirasuke stared fiercely and said viciously, the eyes of the mouse behind the glasses were full of madness.Unlike Hisao Tani, he came from the imperial school. He was implicated after the February [-] incident, and ended up worse than Toshishiro Obata. The mad Emperor Showa at that time dismissed him from his post and would never be used again! (Note: The original history was entered into the reserve service, and it was reused after the July [-]th incident)

At that time, the entire Emperor's School was stink in Japan.Yanagawa Heisuke also bears the infamy of "a traitor who killed the imperial family", and is despised by the people around him, regarded as a "sinner" and "non-citizen", and looks at him with various strange eyes.

"Even if you go to a tavern for a boring drink, the store won't entertain you!"

In the next month, Yanagawa Hirasuke was so desperate that he wanted to commit suicide.

Fortunately, Emperor Showa died in time, and the newly appointed Emperor Yongren took back a lot of orders against the Kodo faction shortly after he came to power.

All the members of the Emperor's Dao faction who were stamped with the seal of "never reused" received the heaviest punishment in the end. Got a promotion.

As soon as Yongren came to power, he began to expand the army aggressively. The increased positions in the army expansion slightly satisfied the appetite of many officers who could not be promoted to the imperial way, and the contradictions within the army were temporarily alleviated.

It was against this background that Yanagawa Hirasuke was recalled, and unexpectedly got a "fat vacancy" to participate in the Baotou attack.

At that time, he thought it was a fat shortage!It is a great opportunity for oneself to turn around.But today, he suffered a bloody battle in the first battle, but he suddenly understood why the military headquarters controlled by the ruling faction gave them all the "opportunities to fall into traps in the sky" to these "rebels of the imperial way faction" "Yes, they didn't feel at ease at all.

In the entire Sixth Division, Toshio Shouo belonged to the ruling faction, and the officers who participated in the war were filled with a large number of degraded imperial way faction officers.

It was only then that Yanagawa Hirasuke remembered that he seemed to have been named by Nishiharaji Gongwang to restore his military post, and then sent to China.

At that time, he thought that he was favored by the nobles, and the fortune was really good, and Xianyu was going to turn around.

"Damn old thing!"

Liu Chuanheisuke said viciously in his heart, what was going on, he suddenly understood a lot.Chang Kaishen is not the only one who knows how to trick "no-names". The Japanese are his ancestors!

Yanagawa Hirasuke suddenly remembered another person, Toshishiro Obata.He is a good friend of Yanagawa Hirasuke, when Yongren came to power, in fact, he also had the chance to return to his original position, or even to a higher level.But this gentleman just stayed quietly in the reserve force to concentrate on training recruits, and even voluntarily refused to be transferred for promotion.

At that time, Yanagawa Hirasuke thought that the other party was disheartened, but recalling now, Toshishiro Obata obviously saw something.

The name can be wrong, but the nickname can never be wrong. Badenba Sanyuwu, each of them is an outstanding figure in the Japanese military department in this period, with a far-sighted vision.

But even if Yanagawa Hirasuke realized what was going on now, he had no way out.

The aggressive ideology of national militarism has cultivated this group of aggressive and predatory military dogs. When they start to devour the government and the military, they are also devouring their own rationality. --

Today's Japan is a land where evil flowers bloom. The evil fruits planted in the past are crazily backlashing everyone, excluding any space for "rational judgment".

"You can advance but not retreat, you can win but you cannot lose. Reason must die, and madness can 'live'!"

This is the fate of Hisao Tani and Heisuke Yanagawa.
