Chapter 4731: The error of the rest

"The daytime battle is over temporarily." Li Shaoyang took out a **** notebook and recorded it. This is a lieutenant's notebook and their company's combat notebook. He doesn't know which company it is. He just knows, Sergeant throws it. For him, the entire page is blacked out. That is blood. The sergeant asked him to record everything here, because he didn’t know many words and couldn’t record it. He didn’t know whether he could survive. He didn’t know, and recorded it so that many Persians knew that they were still fighting here for the sake of Fight for their nation.

Li Shaoyang agreed to such a thing, but it is not very simple to record such things, because there are too many things recorded. Many people have taken it in one stroke, and they didn't even keep their name. For example, this notebook.

It belonged to a lieutenant, but he didn’t know what the lieutenant’s name was, where he came from, and who else was in the family. He didn’t even know if there was another person in this notebook because the handwriting on it was different.

It records a lot of the battle process, many of which only have serial numbers, but no names. The war is cruel, so cruel that some people’s names are not left behind.

There is no way, the 217 Infantry Regiment actually has not many people. Many companies are empty. It's not just these. The supplementary soldiers who came with Li Shaoyang didn't seem to have many people anymore. Li Shaoyang himself didn't know if he could know some of them, so the supplementary soldiers added twice. And every time before and after fighting for less than three hours, those personnel were basically killed.

"Supplementary soldiers are very miserable. They don’t even know their names, where they came from, and then the brutal fighting ended their lives. They lack combat training and experience. Many people still don’t know what war is. They don’t even know. When they came to the battlefield, they should take that leg. This kind of thing is very cruel to them, so cruel. They themselves find it hard to believe that some situation like this is coming up." Li Shaoyang looked at the ground full of supplementary soldiers. Dead body.

No one would take the initiative to collect the corpse, because too many people died. On average, they killed five people before they could kill one of the rest. But that's it, they are still fighting. The supplementary soldiers are not as good as cannon fodder, and the cannon fodder can still fight, but the supplementary soldiers often don’t know what the enemy looks like. Was killed in battle. Because they have no fighting skills.

When the shells came, they didn't know how to avoid them. They panicked. They didn't know that they lowered their bodies and the flying bullets reaped their lives mercilessly. They were too miserable. Many of them died right after they arrived on the battlefield. The officers have become accustomed to this, because the veterans are Jingui, and these supplementary soldiers, they really shouldn't be here.

The value of these supplementary soldiers is that they can block the enemy’s bullets when they charge, and then rush into the enemy’s trenches. Don’t expect them to quickly learn some combat skills, which are usually impossible. They The losses were rapid, and the replenishment was rapid. One batch was killed, followed by another batch. The rest have also gone mad. They continued to use their few heavy artillery shells for bombardment. Although their intervals became larger and larger, this did not prevent them from reaping their lives. This was simply a huge disaster. But this war is still going on, and the battle continues to be even more tragic.

"A position can only be occupied by repeated struggles, and then the Parthians will retaliate by shelling. What everyone knows is that those destroyed buildings will soon become a new kind of shelter, and we rely on this in time. Some bunkers for battle. The two sides have evolved from a battle for a building to a repeated battle for the ruins. In this way, the war will become even more cruel. It belongs to the rest during the day and ours at night, in order to initiate Attacking, we will kill a lot of people. But what's the use of these. If we can’t hold this place, we can’t leave here either. This is a town cast by death.” Li Shaoyang wrote, the first time he faced death, He was still scared. But later, he got used to it. Then he began to enter a state of combat, too many people died. People will be numb, and most of the veterans are like this. Howling shells, whining bullets. No one knows when all of this will end, and no one knows under what circumstances these things will end. The battle is still going on anyway, they can only continue to fight.

There are casualties on both sides every day, but more people will fill in the next day. Both sides are constantly increasing their strength and losing strength, and Sieg Town has tightly twisted the rest of the Parths and Persians together. Both sides are endlessly dying.

Headquarters of the Fifth Infantry Division. Li Shengzhi looked at the map nervously. A Sieg town, they spent five days still not taking it, not only that, their ammunition was almost consumed. The two infantry regiments were deeply stuck in it and could not get out. They may need to invest more troops to solve this dilemma, but the Persians on the opposite side seem to be unable to finish the fight. Both sides cannot withdraw from the battle at all, and at the same time they cannot end the battle.

Li Shengzhi had to admit that the First Army was really difficult to deal with. Although the enemy suffered a lot of casualties, the front line reported that there were corpses everywhere in the city, but that was it, it was still unable to properly end the battle. I really don't know what kind of people it was that caused such an unbelievable battle.

This is really terrible. The opponent unknowingly consumed the vital power of the Fifth Infantry Division. This was the first time he felt such a great danger. The enemy is terrible. He didn't know why the enemy had such a big determination, wouldn't they be afraid? This kind of courage not to be afraid of death. Let Li Shengzhi have the intention to retire. Even, he wanted to re-make a combat plan.

"We can't do this anymore. We can't continue our offensive. Otherwise, our vitality will be completely consumed here. In that case, all of us will be ruined. We absolutely can't do this. The cost of doing so is too great. Now." Li Shengzhi said.

"But sir, if we want to retreat, it may be too late. A large number of troops have been put into it." The staff officer said worriedly.

"It's good to find a way to withdraw, even to give up Sieg Town. We need to re-choose an offensive direction to attack, otherwise, the entire Fifth Infantry Division will be completely consumed here, and in the end we will pay a huge price of casualties. It's definitely not what we want to see, we can't continue to do this." Li Shengzhi said so, and then he marked on the map, and he decided to use the fifth infantry division's mobile combat method again and choose two side rear wings to attack. , Bypassing Sige Town, in this way, they can enter into a flexible combat mode. This is their strength. If they can't make use of such strengths, everything is meaningless. Even their own offensive operations have become extremely passive and difficult to proceed. This is Li Shengzhi's. plan.

But just when Li Shengzhi was ready to do so. The superior's order was suddenly issued, and he was promoted. And demanded to hand over the command right away, he was transferred to the Third Corps to serve as combat staff. In this case, when his term of office as a combat staff officer expires, or when he has greater combat operations, he can serve as a military commander or even a corps commander. This is of great help to his promotion.

Obviously, Li Shengzhi has been noticed above. I think he is a rare military talent, for such a talent, the above can't wait. Therefore, the order is more severe.

This caught him by surprise, because he was adjusting his offensive plan. The previous offense was a complete mistake. He was revising his battle plan, but at this moment, the above order was actually issued. This is the real surprise.

Li Shengzhi decided to let his staff team immediately modify the combat plan and make changes in the way of flanking attacks. If they really do this, their situation will become much more advantageous.

But the problem is that such an opportunity is not given to him at all, and the above has repeatedly asked him to return to his new position as soon as possible. They urgently need such a capable combat staff. The combat staff is the only chief of staff position. The higher the superiority, the greater the future. A combat staff is equivalent to the deputy chief of staff. Many battle plans were made by them.

Changing generals before the battle, even at a critical time when the battle plan is still being revised. What happened to the Parthians is really uncoincidental. But things have caught up. They can only face such an indisputable fact.

Li Shengzhi didn’t see his successor. He couldn’t even proceed with the ideas he wanted to tell some of his combat plans. He just left a letter and asked his chief of staff to tell the other party his thoughts. I hope his successors can see such a situation and correct the difficulties they encountered in a timely manner. If this is the case, they will have a chance of victory.

Then Li Shengzhi was extremely helpless and worried, left here and rushed to his new post. While the successor has not yet arrived, the other party obviously thinks that nothing big will happen on the front line. In this way, the Fifth Infantry Division is in an extremely unfavorable situation, and they are still continuing their previous mistakes badly. In such a situation, it will be bad for the rest. Because they are in their mistakes, if they cannot correct them in time, it is a loss.
