Chapter 477 Attack and Defense

The successive victories inspired the soldiers on the front line.

Even the auxiliary militiamen were shouting.

This is the morale boost brought by victory.

In order to consolidate morale, the rear mobilized more than 100,000 militiamen.

These militiamen are composed of rehabilitated veterans, equipped with light weapons and a small number of heavy weapons.

These militiamen can provide strong logistical support for the participating troops, and can cooperate with the troops to transport supplies, ammunition, transport troops, transport wounded soldiers, martyrs and other logistical support.

Moreover, these militiamen can also replace the main force and be responsible for local public security.

There are no organized enemy troops in the rear, and the militia is more than enough to maintain public security.

Even the elimination of some disorderly soldiers and bandits is left to the militia.

The light and heavy combined brigades sniped the four infantry divisions of the reinforcements, and the medium combined brigade cooperated with friendly forces to launch a mountain attack.

The first mountain to be attacked was the mountain in the middle. The highest point of the mountain in the middle was 1,000 meters above sea level, and the highest peak was only 800 meters. It was much smaller than the first mountain, and the attack was less difficult.

The Air Force cooperated to remove the exposed artillery.

Before, the medium-sized combined brigade attacked the 304th Division. After dawn, it was bombarded by heavy artillery on this mountain, causing considerable casualties. Later, the "Black Hawk helicopter" attacked the enemy's heavy artillery with missiles, and the Air Force came to suppress it.

However, the Air Force also shot down several fighters.

After all, the enemy was equipped with anti-aircraft machine guns and individual air defense missiles, which were still a threat to aircraft.

At this time, the choice of attacking the second mountain was to launch an attack from the west, because if it was on the east side, it would be attacked by heavy artillery from the enemy's first mountain.

Moreover, the slope on the west side was relatively gentle.

Here, the enemy deployed two divisions.

The Air Force also sent planes and bombers to cooperate.

In the south, the heavy and light combined brigades took advantage of their mobility to intercept the enemy's reinforcements and supplies.

With two divisions in the second mountain, the daily food and drink is an astronomical figure, not to mention the consumption of weapons and ammunition.

Without reinforcements and supplies, the second mountain can't be defended for too long.

And sometimes troops are sent to make feints to disperse the enemy's guards.

In order to support the front line, the 14th Army sent three field divisions and the 4th Artillery Division and the Tank Brigade to the south.

After the reorganization, the 14th Army has the 31st, 40th, 41st, and 42nd Divisions and the 4th Artillery Division, Tank Brigade, and Anti-aircraft Artillery Brigade. It can be said that this organization is very special. It is rare to have 4 field divisions in the 24 army groups.

And these 4 field divisions all implement the Southern Type A Infantry Division organization!

Now the 14th Army dispatched three field divisions, the 4th Artillery Division, and the tank brigade to the south, advancing from all directions. This was to deter the enemy from mobilizing troops, and also to support the troops on the battlefield front.

"Boom boom boom ~~"

In the sky, bombers kept dropping bombs on the main peak and the positions on the east and north sides. The reason why they did not drop bombs on the west side was mainly because the accuracy of this bombing was not high and it was easy to accidentally injure friendly forces.

In addition, it was to cut off the enemy reinforcements on the first mountain at any time, and at the same time bomb the first mountain, so that the enemy on the first mountain could not support the first mountain.

In the rear, there was a continuous flow of convoys, including trains, cars, mules and horses for transportation, and even people carrying carts and shoulder poles.

It really did it, giving people and things to people, and supporting the front wherever the troops fought.

No one complained, only determination.

In addition, it was to use airdrops of supplies and weapons and ammunition.

Otherwise, the supply of supplies and weapons and ammunition could not keep up.

Even if we can seize the enemy's supplies and weapons and ammunition, it is not enough!

After all, here, the people are already very poor due to the long-term war, and every family has no surplus food.

Even more, we have to transfer supplies from Laos and Cambodia to help the local people to prevent people from starving to death.

On the other hand, the heavy and light synthetic brigades cooperated and continuously attacked the enemy's reinforcements through mobility.

Sometimes, they also called for air support to bomb the enemy.

The front-line command post was located in the urban area, and Li Fuguo and Zhao Guoping were at the command post.

Both of them had panda eyes, especially Zhao Guoping.

The two were under great pressure. Although they achieved brilliant results, as the supply line lengthened, supply became difficult, and they were unfamiliar with the place, so they had to remain vigilant at all times. Even if these places were under military control, they could not be careless at all.

After all, there were too many hostile people!

One careless mistake could lead to a complete loss!

Zhao Guoping was responsible for both the military and local affairs, and all these things made it difficult for him to sleep for three hours a day.

On this day, the weather changed again, and it started to rain.

This kind of weather is not good for attacking or supporting.

This rain is a test of the will of both sides, a competition of wills.

In the drizzle, on the mountain, there was blood and fire.

The road was muddy, and the soldiers even slipped and rolled when they attacked.

"Da Da Da~~"

The bunker kept spitting out flames.

A soldier crawled forward, and when he was about 200 meters away from the bunker, he took off the rocket launcher on his back.

He aimed the rocket launcher, and then fired it, and the rocket flew towards the bunker.

"Boom!"

The bunker was blown up directly.

Not far away, two soldiers were hiding behind a boulder. They were imagining a mortar with a caliber of 60 cm.

The mortar adjusted the angle, and a mortar shell was put into the barrel. The shell flew out and landed accurately on the bunker.

"Boom~~" The bunker was blown up by this bunker.

After a few days of fighting, they are now attacking the main peak.

As long as the main peak is taken, it means that the initiative of this offensive and defensive battle will be completely taken, and it will only take time to destroy the enemy.

If the enemy does not want to be completely destroyed, it must retreat to the first mountain range.

Even if it is drizzling, the battlefield is still filled with smoke and the flames of war are constantly burning.

The terrain here is much different from Koulin Mountain and Laoshan. The only advantage of the enemy is that they have more troops.

The enemy's artillery was almost destroyed, leaving only some scattered guns. There were no large-caliber guns, but some small and medium-sized guns.

In terms of artillery, our army has the advantage.

There are large-caliber artillery at the foot of the mountain to provide artillery support, and there are planes in the air to provide air support.

Otherwise, it would not have reached the peak of the attack at this time.

Many enemy troops were injured and killed in artillery and air bombardment, and they could not be sent to field hospitals for treatment here, and died of serious injuries.

The medium-sized synthetic brigade did not take the lead in the attack this time, but made a feint attack and threatened the reinforcements of the first mountain, so that the reinforcements of the first mountain could not support here at will.

As for why it was not the main attack, it was naturally because the friendly forces also needed military merits, and the medium-sized synthetic brigade could not eat all the food alone.

After all, the friendly forces are also elite troops with brilliant honors, and they are honorary troops that are enough to make soldiers proud.

Moreover, the medium-sized synthetic brigade can also use its mobility and powerful firepower to attract enemy firepower and make the enemy misjudge.
