Chapter 147 Atypical Classic Battle
More than 100 Thompson submachine guns and more than 100 M1918a2 light machine guns, a powerful firepower net with crocheted blockade of Shao Wanqiao, which is more than 20 meters long and more than 3 meters wide. Not to mention that only more than 300 ordinary troops without heavy weapons, even if there are 1,000 people, as long as he wants to force the bridge, the entire army will be wiped out.
Unable to charge forward, and there were strong troops chasing him back. Dorokel and others had no choice but to break through the Daqing Mountain. However, Daqing Mountain, which was high and steep, was not allowed to break through at will. In addition, Sun Shengli and Yue Xiaoshan were prepared for this direction. At some commanding heights, they had already ambushed the light machine gunners. Therefore, Dorokel and others fled to Daqing Mountain, which was not much different from choosing a dead end.
The morale of the army was disintegrated and the Dorokel regiment, which had long been no longer in fighting, quickly chose to surrender after the regiment commander Dorokel and other officers were shot dead. At this point, all the soldiers of the Dorokel regiment on the escape route in the northwest were captured and annihilated, without exception.
On another retreat route to the south, Wang Yue and Li Jiang led special forces to harass each other along the way, constantly slowing down the speed of each other's marching. In addition, the soldiers in this direction were carrying a large amount of supplies, which caused the troops to move extremely slowly.
The first battalion and the artillery battalion finally won the eighth level half a little later. At this time, the reinforcements also rushed to Yanshiling. After the second battalion commander Fan Guohua handed over the task of guarding Wang Qi and the new battalion, he followed the same battalion to pursue the south, while the artillery battalion pursued the northwest.
Although the Dorokel regiment was originally preparing to set up some traps and obstacles along the way, the interference of Wang Yue and the special forces made these traps basically ineffective, which led to the first and second battalions being able to quickly pursue the robbery.
As for the artillery battalion chasing northwest, it was destined to be useless, because before they chased Shao Wanqiao, the battle on this line had ended, which made the soldiers of the artillery battalion very depressed. It would have been better to follow the first and second battalions to pursue them together.
The battle on the northwest line was about half an hour earlier than the battle on the south line, but the time when the two troops escorted the prisoners back to Rock Ridge was about the same. After all, the Dorokel regiment on the northwest line fled farther.
The sky was slightly bright. Before the east was white, the soldiers of the 201st Regiment of the Advance Army returned triumphantly one after another. At the Yanshiling Base, Wang Qi and Fang Wenzhou also sorted out the situation of the entire base. At this point, the 201st Regiment of the Advance Army was also considered to be in Suiyuan. They truly had a foothold in Wuchuan.
The next morning, a cave in Yanshishan No. 3, the temporary command center of the Advance Army. After a brief rest, all the advance barracks and above cadres were present and prepared to hold the first meeting to settle in the Yanshiling Base. Of course, it was also a celebration meeting, a classic **-type battle and annihilation battle.
It is said to be a classic because the damage of the advance army in this battle is almost negligible compared to the record. The ** type is because of the ability to be won so easily. The biggest reliance is because of Wang Yue's existence. If it were not for the stealth skills and superhuman abilities, it is still unknown whether the 201st Regiment could take the base of Rock Ridge. Even if it was finally won, the 201st Regiment would probably have suffered a heavy blow. After all, such levels along the way are easy to defend and difficult to attack.
The temporary command center is set in the largest cave in Rock Mountain No. 3. The average height of this cave is about six or seven meters, accounting for 3,000 square meters. It used to be the headquarters of the Dorokel Group. Because this cave is completely different from other caves, the cave is decorated in a relatively complete manner and is divided into two floors, with dozens of large and small rooms, like a well-equipped office building.
Wang Yue glanced at the venue and found that all the cadres at the battalion level and above had arrived. He took the lead in speaking: "This raid, we not only successfully captured the Yanshiling base, but also wiped out the Dorokel regiment of King Yun's troops. All battalions and companies and departments performed excellently, fought bravely, and had extraordinary achievements. Although this battle was the first battle for our advance army to enter Suiyuan, it also showed the level and momentum of our advance army, and took an extremely solid step for our advance army to enter Suiyuan to take root and sprout, and took an extremely solid step... Let Chief of Staff Fang summarize the results of the battle."
Fang Wenzhou took out a list, cleared his throat, and said, "This raid lasted for about five hours, successfully completed the combat target, and wiped out the Dorokel regiment under the army of King Yun, including 1,935 prisoners and 1,236 people."
"More than 2,600 rifles, 226 pistols, 36 light machine guns, 4 heavy machine guns, 20 grenade launchers, four infantry artillery pieces, dozens of tons of grain, dozens of tons of other types of materials, more than 560,000 yuan in oceans, more than 13,000 taels of gold,..."
"In the case of our army's combat damage, the first battalion was slightly injured, 10 seriously injured, and 9 soldiers were sacrificed; the second battalion was slightly injured, 19 seriously injured, and 6 seriously injured, and 2 soldiers were sacrificed; the third battalion was slightly injured, 36 seriously injured, and 12 seriously injured, and 12 soldiers were sacrificed; the cavalry battalion was slightly injured, and 7 soldiers were sacrificed; the artillery battalion was slightly injured, and 15 seriously injured, and 6 seriously injured, and 7 soldiers were sacrificed; the regiment had a total of 122 minor wounded, 35 seriously injured, and 39 soldiers were sacrificed."
After Fang Wenzhou's report was over, Wang Yue took over his voice again and said: "Although I have always emphasized the need to avoid casualties and everyone has done a good job, this is the war and the price of victory. Some sacrifices are inevitable. Below, everyone stands up and observes three minutes of silence for the sacrificed soldiers."
After the silence, Wang Yue asked the military chiefs of each battalion to self-evaluate their performance in this battle, point out their own highlights, and at the same time, he should also tell them about their shortcomings, what are not doing well enough, and what places that need to be paid more attention to in the future, which can also be regarded as a reminder for others and themselves.
"In this battle, the division, encirclement and annihilation strategy implemented by Battalion Commander Xu and Minister Yue was very successful and worthy of praise. After the meeting, you each formed written materials and submitted them to the General Staff for filing. In the future, this meeting model will also form a convention, especially some classic battle examples must be compiled into textbooks and submitted to the military academy for others to learn." Wang Yue commented at the end.
After discussing this issue, Wang Yue named again: "Wang Qi, please tell everyone about the basic situation of Yanshiling, and discuss with you how to place the battalions and companies."
"Okay." Wang Qi nodded and continued: "By organizing information and simple field investigation, the basic situation of Yanshiling has been initially understood. Yanshiling is located in the hinterland of Daqing Mountain, connecting Wuchuan County to the northeast. Baotou City is connected to the northwest. It can directly connect to Erdos City to the south, and even connect to the northwest border of Shaanxi and Shanxi. Although the mountain roads in these three directions are not wide, they are still smooth. If necessary, a little repair will be made. Therefore, the geographical location and transportation of our Yanshiling base are still very superior and convenient."
"The interior of the Rock Ridge Base can be roughly divided into three areas. I think it is enough to divide it according to the Rock Mountain Area No. 1, 2, and 3 marked by the head."
"The No. 1 Rock Mountain is close to the eastern periphery of Daqing Mountain and covers an area of about three kilometers. This Rock Mountain has five caves with an area of more than 100 square meters and a height of more than two meters. The largest one occupies about more than 1,000 square meters. As for caves with a area of less than 100 square meters, no statistics have been made."
"The No. 2 Rock Mountain is located in the center of the entire Rock Mountain base, with the largest area. The mountain range is about 6 kilometers long from east to west and about 3 kilometers wide from north to south. There is still a narrow plain about 1,000 meters long on the left of the Rock Mountain. It is considered a natural training ground. The entire No. 2 Rock Mountain has twelve caves above 100 square meters. The largest cave covers an area of about 5,000 square meters. Moreover, the caves are warm in winter and cool in summer, with good ventilation, which is very suitable for living...."
"Rock Mountain No. 3 is where we are currently in the meeting. It is also a southward passage. It occupies about 4 kilometers in a radius of seven caves with an area of more than 100 square meters. Because it used to be the residence of bandit leaders and officers of the Dorokel regiment, the caves in various places have been systematically decorated...."
"I counted it. After simple transformation, most of the caves in the entire Rock Ridge can be used as military camps. Some large caves, such as the super-large caves in Rock Mountain No. 2, can also be converted into indoor training grounds, etc.."
"As for the resettlement of each battalion and company, my idea is to sort according to the specific performance of each battalion and company in this battle, and the number of military achievements. Those with high military achievements can choose caves as their camps first. What do you think, the leader?"
When Wang Qi said this, he began to ask Wang Yue for his opinion. After all, Wang Yue is the boss here, and the battalion commanders of each battalion were just transferred to his subordinates. Wang Qi is really not good enough for one person to be alone. Besides, Wang Yue just asked Wang Qi to propose a plan to discuss it.
Wang Yue nodded and smiled, "Well, I think this method is very good. The General Staff Department is responsible for the statistics of military merits in each battalion. Finally, the rankings are ranked according to the military merits. The ones with the highest ranking are preferred. This is decided in advance. As for future matters, we will discuss them later."
Wang Yue made the decision, and naturally no one objected. Then he talked about the problem of these prisoners. After all, nearly two thousand people were captured overnight last night, and these people were from King Yun's regular army. It was the first time that the advance army encountered such prisoners, and even Wang Yue could not come up with an idea for a while.
"Let's do this. The next period of time in our Yanshiling base will mainly be rest and recuperation. The biggest project in rest and recuperation is to transform these caves. Since the transformation must require a lot of labor, let these prisoners act as laborers for us for the time being. As for what to do in the future, we are studying and researching." Wang Yue finally made the decision.
"This is the best, but the chief, the transformation of the base, especially the transformation of the cave, is short of a large amount of cement, steel and other materials, and we also lack relevant craftsmen. Can we draw a group of craftsmen from the first base?" Fang Wenzhou asked.
"Well, I will solve this problem. I will go to Shangshanghai in a few days, but the problem of the Yanshiling base depends on you." Wang Yue ordered.
"Please rest assured, Chief, you will not disappoint the leader." Fang Wenzhou, Wang Qi and others responded in unison.
