Ultimate Weapon of Magic and Science

If no criminal is found for a certain crime, then everyone who acquiesced in this crime is a criminal.

In the postwar investigation report of the Seventh Army Command on a series of instructions in the Battle of Tepalai, people always instinctively asked "why should such a battle be launched", and "Why should the command go to intervene in front-line troops?" Combat," "There are many ways to win, why choose the stupidest and worst way."

It is interesting that the entire upper seventh group army, except for the general Yakovlev who never entered the Lubyanka square building, from the group army command to the division headquarters, all the parties bite themselves. It is opposed to forcibly attacking and crossing without artillery and air cover. He insisted that the infantry troops should stand by on the spot and wait for further reinforcements to come before taking action. And most of them can still produce evidence.

Why do we have to force this battle?

The reason is simple to say, because of the order of St. Petersburg, because the entire 7th Army command is no longer a military command structure, but more like a bureaucracy that fools each other. Since the above instructions cannot be violated and must be escaped from accountability after the defeat, the easiest way is for everyone to oppose this obviously unreasonable instruction and combat, and to give evidence to each other, while at the same time Under the principle of "obedience is obedient to command", the tacit approval of the operation is possible. In this way, they did oppose the combat, but based on the obligation to obey orders, even if they were reluctant, they could only carry out unreasonable orders from their superiors, and everyone could come up with strong evidence, and everyone could escape safely. .

Who said that the soldiers of the Principality are all stubborn, you see this ability to make big things small and make small things, the old bureaucrats for many years can only be willing to worship.

The bureaucrats in military uniforms are laying the path of escape from punishment. What is the group commander doing? There is something unclear about this in the official history, but from the personal diary of the group army general Rear Admiral Anisov, one can get a glimpse of the real situation at the time.

At that time, the entire staff was busy using the command of the battle command as a shield, trying to avoid responsibility. In the midst of chaos, Major General Anisov was pushed out to act as a mouse that hung a bell on a cat — pointing out the problem to the commander of the group army, and filling in the final jigsaw for the road map for the entire staff to avoid accountability.

Major General Anisov described the scene when he reported to Yakovlev in exaggerated writing:

"Everyone in the staff department refused to see the commander of the group army. I had to complete the reporting work myself. At the first level, you appointed a villa left by a Lapland wealthy businessman as a private residence. I know the layout of the villa. It’s clear who put the good things, who put them in, and where they are. When I went in, the first class was eating, champagne, good caviar, fluffy bread, fresh fruit. I stood side by side and reported the questions one by one, one by one, and I would sit there eating and drinking at the first level. It only took half a minute or a minute before he could leave the table, walk to the map room on the side, and report me The problem is presented in a more intuitive form. But the first level will not want to move at all. Why? I don’t think it is because of how attractive wine and food is to him. The first level feels that he has developed a good Plan, what the person below is to do is to execute this plan, try to overcome all kinds of difficulties to win, instead of running to him to complain about this complaining... In the end the level will have breakfast, waved my hand to signal that I can go back to the total Staff. When I walked out of the villa, tears came down from my eyes. On the way back, I couldn’t control it anymore, and wept bitterly..."

Regardless of whether the arguments and the truth filled with defense and self-beautification are different, from the results, the old official fritters successfully escaped the punishment, the group army commander took the black pot, and the soldiers were sent to hell.

To be honest, officers at all levels of the 49th Infantry Division did not want to throw the soldiers on an offensive without hope of success. They are not idiots, they are not clear about the patterns in the group army headquarters. But what if it is clear? refute? Disobedience? After the defeat, there is also a chance to go to the military court to defend. If the disobedience is not followed, the group army command can directly send the gendarmerie and the supervising team to bring all the commanders to justice. Don't think this is a story that scares children, it is one of the effective means for the Principality Army to train crash officers. Just by shooting the former commander, the latter will get enough lessons. Under the supervision of the blue-capped war squadron and the gendarmerie, commanders at all levels of the Principality Army have always studied the war with all their heart.

So even though he was reluctant, the 49th Infantry Division executed the **** command.

A whistle sounded, and the 49th Infantry Division launched a charge along the entire temporarily excavated trench. The soldiers held their hands, held their bayonet rifles, sang "The Duchy of the Duchy", cheered "Ula", and turned a blind eye to the corpses on the river beach and the wreckage of the ship, like a spear covered with spears. The wall of life rushed towards the turbulent river.

The Lapland soldiers who were used to the long-duration Principality charge were also stunned by the almost tragic scene at that moment. It wasn't until the Duchy soldiers stepped on the anti-infantry mines that were buried on the edge of the river beach that they were awake.

Empire-made S-type lightning jumps are as reliable and effective as ever. The queue of the Duchy of the Duchy in the charge was torn apart, but they did not stop.

"Fire!"

Albert of the second machine gun company of the 8th Infantry Division of Lapland waved his arm. The dull roar of the heavy machine gun opened the curtain of the death concert. One second later, various other light and heavy weapons scrambled to join the chorus.

The neat queue was like a wheat field in autumn, and it was harvested by an invisible sickle, but the soldiers of the Principality did not flinch. Passing the dead and wounded comrades, waves of soldiers rushed forward. Each wave fell under dense bomb rain, and each wave was closer to the river than the previous wave.

Change the distance with a corpse-this tactic that only exists in the mouth of the veterans is really presented in front of the young soldiers in Lapland, and together with the tone of the veterans' fear and disgust, they firmly grasped their hearts. The 19-year-old machine gun shooter put a new chain into the feeder with trembling fingers. The 12.7㎜ machine gun began to growl again, and the surface of the barrel of the steam was glowing red. The roar of the machine gun leader "Replace the barrel! Don't stand silly!" seemed to come from a distant shore, and it was only then that Ralph realized that his ears could no longer hear the sound.

Responsible for the defense of this area are the two companies of the 3rd Battalion of the 28th Infantry Regiment of Lapland. The commander is Captain Karl Lagerlov. Experienced captains are well aware that the Principality Army is using soldiers as a shield for the pontoon bridge troops. As long as they rush to the river beach to establish a defense line, they can try to put the assault boat into the river. The soldiers on the beach will suppress the firepower on the other side of the river, while crossing the river by boat, and finally build a strong bridgehead on the other side of the river.

The captain shook his head.

The courage of the soldiers of the Principality is admirable. The crossfire of the heavy and heavy machine guns and mortars, and the dense formations of the relentless posture, even the enemy is impressed. As for the tactics they used, although they were stiff and stupid, they did not care about the life and death of the soldiers, but they were likely to succeed.

Principality soldiers are not defenseless, and their automatic rifles are not burning sticks. Even if the marksmanship is worse, the gun's quasi-head is worse. Shooting with automatic rifles in a dense formation is enough to suppress the firepower. The closer the distance, the more obvious the suppression effect. At this moment, several machine gun positions have reported the death of the machine gunner, and the deputy shooter has been replaced. According to the current trend, I am afraid that the ammunition player will be replaced in a short time.

In addition to the trouble caused by automatic rifles, the machine gunners and artillery of the Principality are also a trouble.

Speaking of machine guns in the Principality, it is really soaked in the bitter tragedy of the gun designers. In accordance with the design requirements of gun family, initially the Principality wanted to imitate the general machine guns made by the Empire and create a general machine gun that fired heavy machine guns of the same size as the rifle bullets~www.wuxiaspot.com~ But the propellant technology of the Principality Off, the 6.5×50㎜ rifle ammunition they use is the least powerful among the high-power rifle ammunition in active use in various countries, only a little stronger than the intermediate power ammunition used by the empire. After changing to a heavy warhead, the performance dropped significantly and the trajectory became quite unstable. In desperation, designers can only increase the length of the shell and increase the charge to ensure the basic performance of the machine gun. As a result, the bullets that should be generalized were divided into two, which greatly increased the burden of logistics. In addition, the heavy industry technology was not enough, which led to a serious lag in the development of general-purpose machine guns. In the end, the Principality came up with a water-cooled heavy machine gun that fired 6.5㎜ machine gun ammunition. Machine gun with wheels.

No matter how bad it is, it is still a weapon to kill people. In a sufficiently good shooter, with the advantages of water-cooled design, it can still bring enough trouble to the opponent.

In addition, the artillery of the Principality was not idle. Due to the lack of sighting techniques, the artillery’s performance was somewhat lackluster, but the shells that blew across the river continued to make the infantry in the bitter battle feel a little excited, and their shooting became more violent. . For a while, bullets of various calibers came and went, and the battle began to scorch.

The front-line commanders of the two armies were shocked and angry at the fierce battle in front of them, and they never thought that in Lapland or someone's combat plan, the Tepalai River was not an indispensable rift. Their sole purpose at the moment is to bleed the Principality Army, consume the munitions of the Principality Army to the maximum, and pressurize their logistics system.

The soldiers who are dying and fighting for survival and honor will never think that in the planning table of the guy who is lazy enough to not be like a soldier at all, it is not their bravery and sacrifice that determine the direction of the war, but some more cold. s things.
