"Left 1, load, launch." "Left 2, load, launch." "Right 2, top 1, load, launch."...Similar shouting, within just two minutes, artillery commander Shao Xiaoliang A total of nineteen shots were shouted. What does that mean? In other words, the gun he was responsible for correcting the ballistics fired nineteen shells in just two minutes. It was a terrifying rate of fire, because at the same time, regardless of whether Which artillery from which country, six shells in one minute is already the limit, and what does this mean to Daidris and his artillerymen?
,,die,
A moment ago, Motil was secretly delighted because the Chinese only had four cannons, but in just half a minute he saw no less than four waves of fireballs roaring towards our artillery positions. His expression changed. Suddenly it became extremely difficult to look at,
He knew very well the quality of his own artillery. Even if the enemy only had four cannons, with this density of strikes, Daidris and the others might not be able to complete the shooting and Zhu Yuan Correction would have to be blown to pieces. "What are the Chinese people doing?" How many cannons are there? Have they never fired before?" He suddenly shouted at Medeles, staring at him with anger spurting out, because Medeleis had just said the weird words "Maybe it was a test firing. "Motil is now very suspicious. The reason why Medeles asked him to provide artillery support was to drag his artillery regiment to be buried with him. And with their 10th Motorized Division as a foil, the failure of their 1st Cavalry Division It's not so conspicuous,
Little did he know that Medeles was also frightened by what he saw. During the day, the southward detachment had actually been shelled, but those were all caused by mortars and even grenades and grenade launchers equipped by company platoon units. Medeles Rice couldn't help but think about how much damage the 1st Cavalry Division would suffer if the Chinese carried out such a scale of artillery bombardment against them during the day, and now, it was obvious that they had become bait for the Chinese to fish, and The 10th Motorized Division was the fish that took the bait, "fell into the Chinese's trick." Such thoughts were appearing in his mind, and when Model's words reached his ears, he was particularly stimulated, and he seemed to be caught. He jumped up like a rabbit that had stepped on its tail and shouted: "Motil, what do you mean by asking? Do you doubt my loyalty to the head of state and the empire? The Chinese, the Chinese may have been waiting for us." The artillerymen showed up."
"Then you asked me to provide artillery support, Medeles, you did it on purpose."
"Nonsense, how could I do such a thing? Would I be joking with the lives of our brave soldiers?"
... Medeleis and Motil actually quarreled, which was unexpected by their officers and soldiers. Regardless of which one of them quarreled more powerfully, this was definitely a negative factor for the morale of the troops. , and in the midst of their quarrel, Daedris and his men had been killed in large numbers, and their artillery was almost completely destroyed. In the five-minute exchange of fire, the three of them were The sixteen cannons actually only counterattacked three artillery shells. Moreover, the final role of these three artillery shells was to help the local Soviets later develop Larbu Mountain and reduce the workload of the project.
The two military chiefs on the front line actually became red-eyed "enemies" when they met. Naturally, this joint operation could not go on. Therefore, the German army clearly had the advantage in strength, but in the following hours, they were always under attack. The situation of being hit, and being beaten under pressure, with no ability to fight back at all,
"There seems to be internal strife in the German army." In the southward detachment, Lu Deyang was the first to notice the strange scene of the German army. Then, he did not hesitate to ask his assault team to seize this opportunity to increase the intensity of the attack. So, it was like night Like fireworks, the German tanks stuck in the mud and gravel were detonated one after another, first turning into a burning fire, and then into a pile of pitch-black scrap metal.
Guderian had no way of knowing about the dispute that took place between Medeleis and Motier, so when he came to the front line of Mount Larbu, he found that the artillery regiment of the reinforced 10th Motorized Division had been taken over by the Chinese army. , and the First Cavalry Division suffered serious casualties. He had to doubt the accuracy of the intelligence about the Chinese army he had obtained before, and thus made a misjudgment when analyzing the enemy situation again.
In order to reduce their culpability, both Motier and Medeleis naturally tried their best to exaggerate the number of enemy troops. Medeleis believed that the number of Chinese troops who ambushed the 1st Cavalry Division was at least 30,000. Motier went even further, claiming that The artillery regiment of the 10th Motorized Division was bombarded by at least 150 enemy artillery pieces at the same time in the early morning, and was beaten to the ground without even being able to fight back.
The 1st Cavalry Division and the 10th Motorized Division looked really miserable. At least one-third of the tanks of the 1st Cavalry Division were directly blown into scrap metal, and there were no less than ten tanks and five tanks. Buried alive, the only loss suffered by the 10th Motorized Division was the artillery regiment. However, considering that not a single cannon of their artillery regiment was left alive, and only eleven officers and soldiers survived, it is quite consistent with the instantaneous encounter with high-density artillery fire. Revengeful look,
"The Chinese are hiding in the mountains." After inspecting the battlefield, Guderian asked Medeles,
"Yes, Your Excellency, the Chinese stopped the raid as soon as you came over. The Chinese are condescending and can easily spot us." Medeles replied, then he pointed to several hills in the northwest and said: "The Chinese are just Hiding there, Your Excellency, I think that in order to ensure the security of the logistics line, we must first capture Mount Larbu, and at least drive the Chinese out."
Following the direction of Medeleis's hand, Guderian raised his telescope.
From a distance of about seven thousand meters, he could see smoke spreading over a forest on the top of the mountain, and he could also see several steel helmets exposed among the rocks and grass.
"Where are the Chinese artillery? Is there any access to the mountains nearby?"
"The Chinese are all tracked self-propelled artillery and are very capable of climbing mountains. Before the ambush yesterday, I sent people to conduct reconnaissance. There is a passage up the mountain in the northeast, but after the mudslide, that passage seemed to have been blocked. "
"Expand the reconnaissance range. Before twelve o'clock, I need to know if there are other ways to go up or down the mountain."
"Yes, I will make arrangements now."
After inspecting the battlefield, Guderian returned to the temporary headquarters. Looking at the military map, he said to the many generals gathered around him: "The first thing we need to do now is to figure out the size of the enemy's army and the landforms around Larbu Mountain. Damn it, Medeles didn't listen to my words at all. If he had strengthened his reconnaissance in advance, how could they have fallen into the Chinese trap? What I want to see most now is that the mudslides can seal all the mountains and hills. passage, in that case, we can ensure the safety of this passage as long as we leave an appropriate amount of troops..."
