Chapter 952 Lure the enemy
"Bah! Did I be provoked by a few words?" Zhou Qingfeng sat in the position of his tank driver and drove forward in the dark. He looked at the long convoy behind him indignantly, full of weirdness.
Although there was a crescent moon hanging in the sky, the scenery in the dark was still gray. The moonlight was not too bright, and I couldn't see anything clearly when it was far away. When Zhou Qingfeng and others touched the outside of the airport, they saw a wilderness controlled by lights.
The 116th Division of the Volunteer Army was responsible for the 8th Cavalry Regiment of the US Army, which was mainly attacking Yunshan. From the moment, it was quite smooth. Especially after taking down the US position at the Sanchaluo intersection, it completely trapped the enemy of a regiment.
When Zhou Qingfeng suggested directly attacking the US temporary airport, the division headquarters was very interested in this. However, the three regiments of the 116th Division each had their own tasks, and in the end they could only piece together a temporary battalion to do the work. To put it bluntly, this is also a test.
The deputy commander who was responsible for commanding this temporary task force was very enthusiastic. When formulating the combat plan, he emphasized the advantages of close combat and night battles, and then approached the enemy and launched an attack. As a result, Zhou Qingfeng refused to agree to this idea, the commanders and soldiers of the 1st Battalion of the 347th Regiment shook their heads one by one.
The piles of volunteer corpses outside the three forks of road have shown a cruel fact that it is not possible to attack the enemy's strong positions with firepower advantages by light infantry, which is equivalent to suicide.
There are at least a dozen tanks in the temporary airport of the US military, as well as artillery units under the regiment headquarters, and their firepower is stronger than the positions at the Sancha Road Intersection. This time, Zhou Qingfeng, a messenger, did not make trouble internally, and more than 300 infantrymen were rushing into the enemy's defense line, so I'm afraid I can't even touch the edge.
What to do?
The deputy regiment commander used the seized US military vehicles and equipment on the spot to transform the temporary task force into a fast column. He pulled up several large-caliber mortars and more than ten heavy machine guns that he had just obtained, and realized that his firepower was strong and he could fight the US military hard.
roll!
What's his bad idea?
No matter how strong this firepower is, can it be stronger than the Americans? Zhou Qingfeng pushed back the deputy commander's blind command on the spot and said directly that the other party didn't know how to fight with the Americans.
The deputy commander was told that he would not fight, and the deputy commander was so angry that he smoked. However, Zhou Qingfeng made great contributions at this moment and was in full swing. He had to calmly ask what the kid who could drive tanks had.
"Comrade Xiao Zhou, it is your suggestion to fight the US Army. Now let me tell you how you want to fight?" asked the deputy commander.
The Tubi army has the habit of actively listening to the opinions of front-line soldiers. Zhou Qingfeng pointed to the map and said, "We are not in large numbers and not in firepower, but we have the initiative. We can harass and lure Americans to send troops out.
As long as we get annoyed the Americans, they will definitely organize tank teams to expel us. At that time, hehehe... have you heard of the 'black gun'?"
"Seduce the enemy and set up an ambush. Do you need to teach this simple tactic? I thought you, Boy Zhou, have any tricks, and this is the rest of us. At most, the enemy's tanks are really hard to deal with." After hearing Zhou Qingfeng's idea, the deputy commander snorted coldly, and he must be dissatisfied on his face.
For the temporary team, the simpler the tactics, the better. After the basic plan was formulated, Zhou Qingfeng immediately drove a tank and hid behind a road stairs about 800 meters away from the airport. The tall "Sheerman" only exposed a turret, and there was a little grass and woods in front of the turret.
In the airport, Chief of Staff Holmos, who was preparing to stand by and wait for dawn, was still contacting the troops on the Yunshan battlefield, trying to gather them all to him. At this moment, a dazzling light suddenly appeared in the sky, and a few flares shone the entire airport translucently.
"Who made the flare?" The night was covered by flares, which was almost like being naked in broad daylight. Chief of Staff Holmos rushed out of the command tent.
The officers of the regiment headquarters were also nervous and immediately reminded: "This is likely that the ** Army has moved around us and is about to launch an attack."
"Order the airport defense line to be prepared. Our enemies like to launch a close-range group charge." His Excellency the Chief of Staff is looking forward to a happy massacre.
However, the first thing that appeared was not the infantry attacked on foot, but one after another. A large number of mortars and enough shells were seized at the intersection of the three forks. The volunteers were rarely extravagant and bombarded the US airports desperately.
With the instructions of the flares, the shells of the task force were shot very accurately. Although Zhou Qingfeng's previously suspected of combat effectiveness, the logistics and cooking veterans who had lost their physical strength, they had rich combat experience. They were divided into multiple mortar teams, dispersed their attacks, and transferred their positions after a few shots.
The US military's airport was unable to move, and the defensive positions set up by Chief of Staff Holmos could not move. The US soldiers stationed here could only hide behind the positions and were bombed and complained.
His Excellency the Chief of Staff immediately ordered the howitzer company stationed at the airport to counterattack and carry out coverage shooting of suspicious targets. But he did not expect that the several mortars that were harassed on the periphery were equipped with trucks, which could not only load ammunition to ensure continuous firepower, but also drag light mortars to maneuver everywhere.
After fighting for a long time, the US soldiers on the defensive positions could not stand it. The 107mm m1 mortar had a long range and was powerful, and it was still a curved shot that made it difficult to fight back. Only a dozen people were killed or injured, they strongly asked the commander to send tanks to drive out the enemies in the dark.
Chief of Staff Holmos was also worried that his command tent would be patronized by shells, so he ordered his two tank platoons and an infantry company to launch a small-scale counterattack, striving to ensure the safety of the airport positions.
Four "Greyhound" armored reconnaissance vehicles rushed out of the airport position and formed an attack fan at a distance of more than 20 meters. The tanks behind them also drove at extreme speed, creaking and quickly following.
The two tank platoons had eight tanks, divided into two groups to form a clamp-shaped offensive. The infantry company following behind also drove armored vehicles and trucks, which had absolute advantage in firepower and was particularly fast. Once they were stuck, they could not even get rid of it.
Seeing the Americans taking extraordinary actions, he casually pulled out an armored unit several times stronger than himself. The deputy commander in charge of commanding the task force put down his telescope and couldn't help but breathe a breath of air. If he were to play his original style, he would really hit the stone with an egg.
"Order the blasting team to be prepared and never let the enemy tanks rush over." The deputy regiment commander felt the huge pressure of fighting with the Americans. The situation suddenly became severe under the head-on confrontation. "I informed that Mr. Zhou that if he was not blacked out well, I would have to peel him off."
Thanks to the US military, many radio stations were seized at the Sanchao Road intersection, and even Motorola Walkie-talkies used by individual soldiers. The radio transmitted the orders to every unit in the task force.
