Predator Reborn

Chapter 26 Counter Encirclement and Suppression (3)

The Central Army was indeed well-trained. Under the order of his commander, the artillery position was quickly completed. He was waiting for his commander's order. Commander Sun was filled with emotion.

"Woo..." With a whistling sound, 12 artillery shells accurately landed on the front-line position. Looking at the position covered by artillery fire, Lao Sun sighed: "The division commander is still awesome. Let me arrange a few more positions and conduct echelons."

Defense, if I put all my troops on the front line, my troops will really be doomed."

"Order the artillery platoon to fight back immediately and destroy the enemy's artillery positions." Lao Sun did not forget his duty. Seeing the enemy's firepower concentrated on his front-line positions, he ordered decisively.

"Boom, boom, boom!" As groups of four mortar shells landed continuously on their artillery positions, the Chinese artillerymen couldn't bear it anymore when they saw the corpses of their comrades shattered by artillery fire.

Regardless of those cannons, he ran backwards and refused to step forward no matter what his superiors ordered him to do.

Just like this, after several rounds of artillery fire, the enemy's artillery position was in a mess. Seeing that his only artillery company was gone, the commander of the leading brigade was stunned. When did the Communist army have such strong firepower?

How can you fight without the support of artillery? But no matter what, you have to attack, otherwise when the division commander comes over and sees that you have lost the artillery company before attacking, you will have to shoot yourself. Thinking of this, I quickly ordered

We will attack regiment by battalion, and all heavy machine guns will provide cover.

The soldiers of the first battalion slowly approached the Communist position, but there was no movement at all. Could it be that all the Communist soldiers had fled. It was absolutely impossible. Their artillery had just been destroyed. How could the cunning Communist army give up such a good opportunity?

The brigade commander couldn't help but smile at his stupid idea.

The 1st Battalion had already contacted the front-line positions, but there was still no response. Could it be that the Communist Army had really retreated? Seeing that my troops continued to pour into the Communist Army's positions, I finally let go of my doubts.

"Da da da da da da da da da..." A familiar sound of Maxin heavy machine gun fire came to my ears. "Sure, I was fooled. The first regiment commander immediately ordered the second battalion to go up and relieve the first battalion. Hurry.

"The brigade commander shouted loudly, but what greeted him was a group of 4 mortar shells. Under such fierce bombardment, his troops could not concentrate at all, let alone rescue his first battalion.

The commander of the first brigade sat on the ground under the protection of his own bodyguards, staring blankly at the place where the gunshots were fired. His artillery battery was gone, and he was unable to provide long-range support to the first battalion. He could only listen to the continuous sound of gunfire.

It decreased until finally there was no sound of gunfire, and he knew that his battalion was gone. Just like that, it was gone inexplicably.

"Order the troops to stop attacking and wait for the division commander to bring artillery before attacking." Thinking of his own battalion, the brigade commander ordered while resisting the urge to fight the Communist army.

It turned out that after seeing that the enemy's artillery company was destroyed by him, and that the attacking troops only had one battalion, and that he had a second line of defense, with the second and third battalions guarding there, Commander Sun immediately thought of the attack led by his division commander.

The original Red 10th Regiment wiped out an enemy battalion. I thought about giving the Central Army a surprise. In addition, with artillery support, I could bombard the enemy's backup troops so that they could not reinforce them. Thinking of this, Lao Sun

I told the idea to the first battalion commander, who was also a veteran of the former Red Tenth Regiment, and immediately agreed. In this way, under the conspiracy of the two, a battalion of the Central Army was gone. Looking at the soldiers happily cleaning the battlefield

, Commander Sun couldn't help but sigh, "This battle was really exciting."

"Commander, the enemy has reduced its defense line and seems to be retreating." After hearing what the correspondent said, Lao Sun quickly ran to the position and picked up the binoculars. He saw that the enemy seemed to be organizing their formation and retreating, "What's wrong with them?"

?" Lao Sun said to the political commissar next to him with a puzzled look.

"Regiment commander, division commander telegram."

"Haha, I understand. Battalion Commander Zhang, lead the first battalion to run forward immediately. You must get in front of the first brigade and block him for me. You must block him. Order the artillery platoon to fire immediately to disrupt their

formation to slow down their retreat. Order the second and third battalions to gather immediately and support the first battalion to resolutely block the enemy's retreat." Commander Sun, who glanced at the telegram, immediately ordered.

As the order came out, the four mortars of the artillery platoon began to roar. As the sound of the cannons sounded, the formation of the Central Army was instantly disrupted. However, it didn't take long before the enemy army lost some troops.

The 1st brigade still retreated out of the range of the mortars and began a normal march. It turned out that the commander of the enemy's 1st Division immediately concluded that the Communist army had an ambush after hearing that his rearguard brigade was under attack and that contact was interrupted. As the always cautious division commander,

, after seeing the telegram sent by the avant-garde brigade, he became more sure of the trap set by the Communist army at this time, so he immediately ordered the avant-garde brigade to retreat. After all, preserving strength is the first priority now.

In this way, the two armies began to compete. The Central Army was trotting on the road, and the soldiers of the first battalion were chasing closely on the hillside on the roadside. After about half an hour, they finally caught up with the vanguard brigade of the Central Army.

Troops. The soldiers of the first battalion were like tigers descending the mountain, unstoppable, and suddenly cut off the Central Army's path.

The commander of the 1st Division's vanguard brigade finally understood that the Communist Army wanted to keep his own brigade here. This was too slight. He immediately ordered his second regiment to launch a group charge and must rush over. At the same time, he directed his own

The division commander sent a request for help report.

"Batalion Commander, the enemy is coming."

The commander of the first battalion, who was building a simple trench, did not hesitate for a moment after hearing the report from the correspondent: "Order the troops to prepare for battle. As long as the enemy comes within two hundred meters, shoot. We must not let the enemy break through the position."

At this time, Battalion Commander Zhang was full of confidence. He knew that the enemy's vanguard brigade no longer had artillery support. He had twenty light machine guns in his hand. He would not dare to think of placing them in the Central Red Army, and he had enough ammunition.

, the regiment commander's reinforcements will arrive in a moment. What else do you have to be afraid of? You must hold your position resolutely.

Seeing about a battalion of enemy troops slowly approaching, all the guns that were "hit" immediately spurted out tongues of fire. The first row of enemy soldiers immediately fell in a pool of blood, and the enemy troops behind immediately lay down and fired at the first battalion.

Get up. If this continues, maybe we can slowly increase the casualties of the first battalion and finally break out. After all, the first battalion does not have complete trenches, only simple bunkers. Dozens of people immediately appeared under the fire of the enemy's heavy machine guns.

There were so many casualties that the battalion commander was so angry that his teeth kept ringing.

But this did not last long. An enemy officer raised his gun and asked the soldiers lying on the ground to start charging. In this way, the automatic firepower of the first battalion began to show off. The machine guns fired desperately, and the enemy troops fell one by one.

Another piece of fire failed to come up, and the machine gunners were so excited. It turned out that the commander of the avant-garde brigade became worried when he saw his troops and the Communists firing at each other. He was worried that his troops would be surrounded by the Communists if it took too long.

Coupled with the constant instigation of the chief of staff who was afraid of death, the brigade commander finally issued an order to charge his troops regardless of casualties, and must seize the Communist positions and break out.

Looking at the enemy troops below desperately charging upwards, Battalion Commander Zhang was also happy. He now had enough ammunition. If it continued like this, his entire brigade would not be enough. Looking at the corpses below, Battalion Commander Zhang shook his head.

Shaking his head, he thought that according to his estimate, in this half hour, almost two battalions of enemy troops had fallen under the guns of his first battalion, but the enemy troops still charged desperately. Is the commander below going crazy?

.

"Battle Commander Zhang, what's the situation now?" The leader who was chasing the first battalion, the second battalion, the third battalion and the directly affiliated troops finally rushed over. Following the direction of battalion commander Zhang's finger, Lao Sun was also stunned, what the hell

It was simply a massacre. When Commander Zhang said that two enemy battalions had been annihilated, Sun Xingbang's mind immediately turned away.

"Damn it, according to this, there is only one regiment of enemy troops in front of us." Political Commissar Zhao Dahe also thought about it after hearing Battalion Commander Zhang's introduction, and both of them smiled at the same time.

"Commissar, what do you think? Let's do it."

"Haha, you're not afraid. I have nothing to be afraid of. I'll do it."

"Okay, let's do it. Order the first battalion to continue to hold on. The second battalion will detour to the enemy's right wing. The third battalion will be on the left wing. Be ready to charge. All automatic firepower will be arranged in the first row. The artillery platoon will immediately build a position. After listening to my order,

Carry out artillery bombardment, specifically targeting crowded areas, and do not allow the enemy to gather. Half of the heavy machine guns will be assigned to the first battalion, and the other half will immediately go around behind the enemy. I must block both ends. Battalion Commander Zhang, send a company to follow the heavy machine gun.

Use machine guns to block the enemy's retreat."

Another half hour passed. Perhaps the commander of the vanguard brigade saw his regiment being abandoned on the charging road, so he finally stopped the attack and began to rest and prepare for the next attack. But he didn't know that he had already entered the countdown stage.

After half an hour of preparation, all the personnel of the first regiment were in place. Following the regiment commander's order, another group of 4 mortar shells fell on the enemy troops who were resting, constantly killing and injuring the enemy.

Seeing that the enemy's organization was in chaos, Lao Sun ordered the charge to be sounded. Immediately, countless machine guns and submachine guns spitting flames appeared on both sides of the road. The soldiers shouted slogans and rushed to the road. Looking at the swarming Communist troops,

, the brigade commander could no longer muster the energy to resist, and sat on the ground blankly.

The battle went smoothly and fiercely. Although the Central Army's organization was in chaos, under the organization of the company and platoon leader, it still inflicted heavy casualties on one regiment. According to post-war statistics, more than 4,100 people from one brigade of enemies were wiped out in this battle and 600 were captured.

There were more than 300 people killed in the battle, more than 40 seriously wounded, and more than 200 lightly wounded. A battalion was lost in one fell swoop. Fortunately, the lightly wounded did not affect the battle, and our troops had sufficient medicines, so many seriously wounded could be treated.

, which made Captain Sun feel relieved.

"It seems that the Central Army is indeed well-trained. Please pay more attention in the future." After the war, Commander Sun couldn't help but sigh to the political commissar.
