Time passed in a hurry, the PLA positions were full of people, and all the soldiers were busy preparing for the attack.Shijiazhuang is surprisingly quiet, as if the devils are all dead, and the siege of the army alone can scare them all to death.Gao Dong, Hu Xinghan and Huang Youde stood in front of the temporary position on the front line, looking coldly at Shijiazhuang under the sun.The red glow painted the city a bleak blood-red, as if the entire city was stained with blood."
Is the time coming?"
asked Gao Dong when he turned around."
There are still ten minutes, the artillery is ready, just wait for the time to come," Hu Xinghan looked at his watch and said with some excitement."
The tank unit is ready to charge, and my fourth division is also ready to attack at the same time as the tank unit," Huang Youde said lightly."
Shijiazhuang, I still don't believe it, our two armies are surrounded, and we can't take this city" Gao Dong snorted coldly.Ten minutes later, behind the encirclement of the First and Second Armies, close to two thousand guns opened fire in unison.The artillery fire tore apart the red glow in the sky, and smashed into the outer positions of Shijiazhuang with dazzling firelight.The fierce artillery fire suddenly blew up the outer positions of Shijiazhuang into a sea of fire, and the tumbling waves of fire burned in all directions, and the air waves of the explosion were rolled upside down like a huge wave.Originally, the artillery fire of the People's Liberation Army could directly enter the city and bombard the most heavily defended places of the Japanese army.However, there are still a large number of inhabitants in the city, so the attack can only start from the periphery, eliminate the defensive positions of the devils little by little, and then attack the city by advancing with tanks.It's time-consuming, but it's simple and practical.It can not hurt the innocent people in the city, and at the same time can give the enemy the greatest fire deterrence, destroying the enemy both physically and mentally.The artillery bombardment continued for an hour, enveloping almost all the Japanese positions on the outskirts of Shijiazhuang in a fierce wave of fire.The interior of Shijiazhuang was still quiet, and not a single devil could be seen, and it seemed that all of them had been killed in the trenches."
Almost, their outer positions are strong, and they will definitely be blown to pieces by our more than 2,000 artillery pieces" Gao Dong looked at his watch, and the bombardment had lasted for almost an hour and a half."
Are you going to start the attack?"
asked Hu Xinghan."
Attack, let the artillery stop the bombardment, the self-propelled artillery units follow, cover the tank unit impact.Your Fourth Division has brought offensive weapons, although it has blown up the enemy's outer positions, but there must be many more positions inside them" Gao Dong looked at Huang Youde."
I've got them all armed with grenades, and a large number of flamethrowers are also equipped with various units.Even if you run into a bunker group, with the assistance of tanks, there is no big problem," Huang Youde said with a smile."
Okay, then go and prepare, I hope you can attack the city in one battle" Gao Dong nodded at him.Judging from the periphery, he couldn't see any other tricks up his sleeve from the Japanese.The outer positions have all been caught in a sea of fire, and even if they burn, they can burn the devils to death.At this time, the attack was launched, just "Captain, is our first army going to attack together?"
Hu Xinghan asked in a low voice after waiting for Huang Youde to leave.Gao Dong shook his head: "The strength of the devil's guards in Shijiazhuang is limited, and the attack force we sent out should be enough."
Tonight, there is no problem in taking Shijiazhuang.You have the 1st Division ready to support the 4th Division's operations at any time. ”"I've been waiting for you for a long time," Hu Xinghan smiled and turned to leave.After a few minutes, the PLA's artillery fire gradually thinned out.Only the raging fire remained in Shijiazhuang, and the whole city was surrounded by flames.Less than a moment later, the cannon rang out again.Only this time it was the self-propelled artillery unit that opened fire, and the rumbling tanks, under the cover of the self-propelled artillery unit, rushed towards the left side of Shijiazhuang, which was subjected to the most intense artillery fire.At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the huge body of the tank rushed through the darkness, like a steel beast, roaring and rushing towards the devil's position.It was less than thirty meters away from the bombed outlying positions of the Japanese army, and suddenly there was a sudden sound on the ground that was burning with fire.The advancing tanks came to an abrupt stop, and the tracks made a dull noise."
There's something underground, don't go forward, don't go forward" exclamations rang out from the tanks of each other.The tanks that rushed to the front were all lying on their stomachs, and it was impossible to advance or retreat.Countless steel wire nets suddenly appeared on the ground, entangled the tracks so tightly that even if the engine of the Wolf tank was extremely strong, it could not break free from the shackles of the tracks.The tank units stopped, and they were all huddled together.The self-propelled artillery units that followed behind also had to stop, and for a time the scene was chaotic, with tanks crowded together everywhere."
Zhina people, do you think that Shijiazhuang is so easy to attack" In Shijiazhuang City, the smiling Dazheng Yongxing suddenly ran out of the pillbox that had been hiding for a long time, and shouted at the guards who had been waiting for orders in the distance: "Order the artillery, open the cannon immediately, quickly" After a moment of boom, nearly three hundred artillery pieces fired at the same time.The whistling shells lit up the sky, and Shijiazhuang, which had been silent, finally came into play.More than 30 Wolf tanks trapped outside the city were suddenly bombed, and they suddenly exploded and caught fire.The tank crews trapped inside had no way to escape, and all of them were killed in the first place."
Quickly retreat, retreat backward" Countless roars erupted in the tank, and the tankmen who were blocked and could not retreat were in a hurry.The devil's artillery fire was too fierce, and more than 300 artillery pieces bombarded one place in a concentrated manner, and the power could be imagined.It's like they shrink their fists and slam into one place, and the damage they do is naturally great.The self-propelled artillery units in the rear immediately began to retreat, making way for the tank units.In the blink of an eye, more than two dozen wolf tanks were bombed.Before reaching the enemy, about fifty Wolf tanks were destroyed."
All retreat, order you all to retreat" Suddenly, a chant rang out over the radio of each tank.Without any hesitation, all the armored vehicles all began to urgently retreat back.Staying here is tantamount to being a target for enemy artillery, and it is obvious that the advance may again be entangled in wire, and retreat is the only way.Soon, the armored forces were out of range of enemy fire in unison.And the 4th Division did not have time to dispatch at all, and the battle was already over.The Japanese artillery fire was very cooperative and the bombardment ceased after the PLA troops retreated to safety.The whole Shijiazhuang fell into a dead silence again, as if there had been no fire at all.Gao Dong did not throw away the radio in his hand until he saw that all his troops had withdrawn to safety, and strode towards the front line.He quickly ran to the front of the tank troops, and by this time the tank crews had already jumped out of the cars, and looked back at the burning tanks in the distance, and everyone's eyes showed sadness.It is rare for the tank troops to have such large losses, and the only time was the previous battle with the devil tank unit at the Taiyuan railway station.But it was not as miserable as today, not even a shadow of the enemy was seen, and more than fifty tanks were all scrapped."
He Sheng, He Sheng" Gao Dong saw He Sheng in the crowd, and rushed over quickly: "What the hell is going on, why did the impact tank stop" Looking at Gao Dong's angry look, He Sheng laughed miserably: "Chief of Staff, it's not that we have to stop, but we can't walk, there is barbed wire on the ground, and I don't know what method the devil used, when our tank arrived, suddenly all the barbed wire appeared on the ground, and it was so entangled in the tracks that it couldn't move forward at all" Gao Dong's face was gloomy, He had planned to destroy the enemy's defensive positions on the perimeter with artillery fire.The bombardment continued for an hour and a half, and outwardly it appeared that the enemy's outer defensive positions should have been destroyed.But he never imagined that the devil would actually play this hand."
Chief of Staff, we are aggrieved.Before we could fight with the devils, we lost more than 50 tanks and died so many brothers, we were aggrieved" He Sheng sat down on the ground in pain with tears on his face.Gao Dong bit his lower lip, turned around and strode towards the headquarters, shouting as he walked: "Bring Gu Chengyong over for me." ”When Gao Dong came to the headquarters, Gu Chengyong was also escorted over by two guards at the same time.Gao Dong rushed forward, grabbed Gu Chengyong's collar, and yelled viciously: "Tell me, what damn traps you set up in Shijiazhuang, tell me everything" Gu Chengyong was startled by Gao Dong's eyes, looked at the angry expressions of the people around him, and immediately guessed that the PLA must have been blocked in attack, which is why Gao Dong was so angry.Gu Chengyong laughed in his heart, but his face showed a sincere expression: "Sir, I said a long time ago that Shijiazhuang's defense is very tight.Without my help, it will be difficult for you to attack" "Don't talk nonsense with me, it's nonsense, believe it or not, I let you live better than die and say it quickly" Gao Dong roared at Gu Chengyong's face, and his saliva splashed Gu Chengyong's face.Gu Chengyong was completely frightened by Gao Dong's tiger threat at this time, and hurriedly nodded: "Shijiazhuang's defensive position was personally designed by Xiangyue Qingji, especially the peripheral position.In order to protect themselves from shelling, he ordered his troops to dig underground passages and hide them in them. ”"The connected underground passages are like bomb shelters, and when they are bombed, the troops are all hidden in them.By the time the bombardment was over, the troops were coming out.And above the underpass, anti-tank barriers are mechanically controlled, there are barbed wire, there are mines.As long as you touch the switch, the obstacles buried deep in the ground will slowly appear on the ground, thus blocking the attack of your armored forces" Gu Chengyong swallowed his saliva and said: "This is just the first line of defense, even if you break through, you will have to pay a lot of casualties."
There were also stronger bunker positions underneath, as well as stealth machine-gun bunkers, covered by artillery fire from within the city.It can be said that Shijiazhuang is already a military bunker.In the words of you Chinese, it is called Yifu Dangguan Wanfu Mo Kai" Gao Dong looked at Gu Chengyong dead and said word by word: "Tell me everything you know, how to break through and enter Shijiazhuang."
