Chapter 197: Bombardment of Hutou Mountain Tenth Change
(Friends, the update is still going on! Collect it, are there any flowers!!!) After dealing with the final matters of the Yellow Sea Battle, Li Ningyu’s eyes naturally focused on the battlefield in Shenyang, although Li Ningyu gave Kong Xiaoping regulations Although he was already outside Shenyang City, he was still unable to enter the city. This made Li Ningyu very angry, and the consequences were naturally very serious.
"Zhongzheng! The night attack you just suggested is actually good, but I think this group of Tsarist Russian troops will also guard against us. So that's what I thought. Use night attack, but adopt another tactic. The first thing is to send a reconnaissance battalion. Go up and knock out the main outposts at Hutou Mountain, and at the same time send part of the 809th Division to feint to the east, while the real attack will all be to the east!"
After listening to some of Jiang Zhongzheng's suggestions, Kong Xiaoping added his own plan to it. Then both of them thought it was good and looked at each other and nodded. However, at this moment, a correspondent looked panicked. He ran over and said: "Report to the division commander! A telephone line was found south of Hutou Mountain!".
"Bang!" As soon as the correspondent finished speaking, the water cup that Jiang Zhongzheng had just picked up fell to the ground. Kong Xiaoping also looked surprised, but then they immediately asked: "Has it been dealt with? ”.
The correspondent nodded seriously and affirmatively: "Yes! It has been completely cut off now!".
"Okay! You should inform the chief of this news immediately!" Kong Xiaoping ordered immediately after the correspondent finished answering.
"yes!"
So after a while, the correspondent came to report to Li Ningyu and said: "Report on the first battle! A scout from the 808th Division sent a telephone line at the foot of the mountain!".
Hearing such a reply, Li Ningyu smashed the water glass in his hand on the spot and cursed: "What did the Pioneer Army do? Why didn't this important matter be handled well?".
Seeing Li Ningyu's livid face, both the staff and correspondents around him couldn't help but show fear. However, things have changed. Li Ningyu must immediately come up with a response plan. There are three possibilities for this matter. This Tsarist Russia The army has a telephone that can directly notify their superiors that the traces in the Far East have been exposed to the eyes of the Tsarist Russians; secondly, they thought that the Far East Army was just a small group and did not immediately notify their superiors!"
The originally good situation seemed to have suddenly fallen into a passive state. Li Ningyu's face turned pale. He took out a Chinese cigarette from his arms and lit it. His eyes were slightly closed and his brain was running at high speed. After seeing such a scene, everyone was stunned. I know Li Ningyu is thinking about important issues because he hasn't smoked for a long time.
Telephones appeared very early. In this era, telephones did not have dial pads. All calls were made through an operator, who would connect the caller to the correct line. However, Li Ningyu would never have imagined that this telephone line was not fully built. , so after he finished smoking a cigarette, he made a decision, and then he rode directly to the 808th Division's frontline headquarters.
After seeing Kong Xiaoping and Jiang Zhongzheng, Li Ningyu did not say much and said directly: "Immediately pick a representative who can speak Russian and go up the mountain immediately to tell the 17th Infantry Division of the Tsarist Russian Army and ask them to come down the mountain and surrender immediately, otherwise we will There will be an attack!".
Li Ningyu's words did not express any further meaning. Kong Xiaoping immediately found a deputy division commander on the side. After some explanations, the deputy division commander ran out of the command post, and then Li Ningyu gave the order at the command post. Said: "Immediately mobilize two howitzer regiments and prepare to attack east and west on Hutou Mountain!".
As soon as Li Ningyu said these words, the expressions of Kong Xiaoping and Jiang Zhongzheng who were present suddenly changed a few times, but then they started to move. The next hour seemed to be very long, but in the process, A translator from the Far East who went to Hutoushan to persuade surrender was killed.
At 21:15 on June 24, Li Ningyu once again took out a cigarette and lit it. After taking a deep breath, he said expressionlessly: "After the 1-ton artillery shells are fired, your unit must be within 2 End the Battle of Hutou Mountain for me within hours!”.
"Yes!" Kong Xiaoping replied seriously, and then a series of orders were issued from the command post to the two howitzer regiments.
At 21:21, 128 122mm howitzers opened fire simultaneously from the east and west directions of Hutou Mountain. For a time, the entire Shenyang City and Hutou Mountain were surrounded by unilateral shelling that lasted for about an hour. The howitzers had short, curved trajectories. Field artillery, which is generally suitable for attacking hidden targets and ground targets, is used in attacking positions, which will slightly affect its effect. However, at this time, Li Ningyu did not want to waste time, and had to destroy Hutou Mountain before reinforcements from Tsarist Russia arrived. Tsarist Russian Army.
The howitzers of the two artillery regiments used incendiary bombs, grenades, and illumination bombs in conjunction with the use of modified charges and ballistic trajectories, making it possible to carry out fire strikes at a greater depth. This fierce bombardment that lasted for an hour directly led to The height of Hutou Mountain dropped by 5 meters.
Under the attack of howitzers, all the soldiers and officers of the 17th Infantry Division of the Russian Army were stunned, because this group of people was too strong!
You must know that the 17th Infantry Division of the Tsarist Russian Army is also a field division, but it only has one artillery battalion and 15 122mm mountain guns. This night, whether it is for the people in Shenyang City or the 17th Infantry Division of the Tsarist Russian Army stationed at Hutou Mountain, , as well as the 5,000 musketeers who had been disarmed not far away, it was a stunned night. Although the sound of artillery that night only lasted for an hour.
But the violent explosions and the continuous flames shooting into the sky will remain fresh in everyone's minds for the rest of their lives, and they will never forget it, because the crazy shooting of artillery shells has only one consequence. The combat effectiveness of the 17th Infantry Division of the Tsarist Russian Army collapsed instantly. The red-haired Japs all over the mountains and plains seemed to have no need for the 808th Division to attack. However, in such an artillery battle, countless Far Eastern officers realized that in the battle formation Absolute advantage in firepower.
From then on, it also gave a group of officers a thorough brainwashing and told them how to use the advantage of firepower and learn how to defeat the enemy at any time!
After an hour of shelling, soldiers from the 808th and 809th field divisions immediately rushed up Hutou Mountain from the east and west directions. The battle ended in less than 30 minutes, and no soldiers in the Far East were injured or injured, because Hutou Mountain had been bombed. It was beyond recognition.
At the command post, after Li Ningyu saw Kong Xiaoping with a depressed look, he immediately laughed happily and said: "How about it, if you don't believe it, you have to be convinced if you lose! Okay! Let's go into the city!".
After walking out of the command post, they climbed onto the tall horse. Li Ningyu took the lead and galloped towards Shenyang City. Behind them, Kong Xiaoping, Jiang Zhongzheng and others followed closely behind.
