Chapter 1213

Early the next morning, the heads of the regiments were called to the division headquarters for a meeting. I didn't act as a teacher. Barksov was still in charge of giving orders.

According to the collected reconnaissance information, baksov assigned tasks to the regiment heads. I don't know if it's because he wanted to please me or for some other reason. As the main force of the division, the shejerikov regiment didn't get the task of main attack, but stayed in the rear as a reserve team to watch the fun.

On hearing the arrangement made by baksov, shijerikov turned his head and looked at me meaningfully, as if asking me to give him a good word and let his regiment take up the main task.

Baksov did not pay all his attention to the map on the desktop when he deployed the mission. He looked around from time to time to understand the first reaction of the commanders. The eye contact between me and shijerikov, not surprisingly, fell into his eyes. When he saw that I wanted to speak, he coughed quickly and said, "Comrade commander, you may be very surprised why the xiejerikov regiment is the most effective, but I don't let the other regiment take part in the main attack, instead of just acting as the reserve force?"

Barksov's arrangement made me very curious. When I heard him ask, I nodded to show that I wanted to know the answer. He went on to say: "after seizing the peripheral positions of jergach, the next attack will be on the city. The street fighting ability of the shejerikov regiment is the strongest in the whole division. If they pay heavy casualties in the battle of cleaning up the periphery, then in the lane war, the troops who are not familiar with the street war will fall into a time-consuming and cruel repeated tug of war with the German army. "

Baksov's explanation is impeccable. Don't mention me. Even shijerikov, who has a problem with him, has nothing to say at the moment.

Seeing that the task had been assigned, baksov looked at me and asked respectfully, "Comrade commander, do you have any instructions?"

As the 67th division of the guards was not my direct line, the tactics they used in the battle were still the old Soviet offensive mode. Every time they attack on the open ground, they are always in a dense formation, charging forward blindly with guns. This kind of suicidal charge usually enables the Germans hidden in fortifications or bunkers to spot and strafe them calmly. In the end, the army suffered heavy casualties, and no results could be achieved.

They are going to attack the German positions again soon. In order to avoid unnecessary sacrifice, I solemnly said to them, "Comrade commander, I know that you have some wrong views. You think that in order to maintain the intensity of firepower, you must adopt a dense formation when attacking. Now I tell you that this mode of attack is totally wrong. Apart from causing heavy casualties to our army, we can not achieve any brilliant results at all. "

"But, comrade commander." As soon as I finished my words, a regiment chief Wei Qudi said, "if we attack, our army will not be able to gain the advantage in firepower..."

Seeing that the attack was about to start, I didn't want to argue with him any more. I quickly raised my hand and interrupted his words behind him. I said impolitely, "Comrade commander, the problem you are worried about is very easy to solve. For example, infantry, under the cover of tanks, attack the enemy's positions and can get the necessary artillery support; In addition, when the German machine gunners shoot out, due to the limitation of the terrain, they have to show some body no matter what. Then they can be killed one by one with snipers. It's better than letting our soldiers rush forward in the rain of bullets!... "

Due to the pressing time, I just mentioned some simple precautions, and I didn't have time to tell them the tactical principles of "one point two-sided tactics", "four fast and one slow tactics", "three fierce tactics", "four groups and one team tactics", "three three three systems tactics" and "three situations and three ways of playing". However, Rao has benefited these commanders a lot.

Barksov raised his hand and looked at his watch. Then he waved to the regimental leaders and said loudly, "it's late. Everyone go back to their respective units to prepare for the battle."

After everyone left, barksov respectfully asked me, "Comrade commander, I don't know whether you and the deputy commander stay in the headquarters or go to the frontier observation post?"

"To the observation post, of course." Before I could say it, chisjakov said, "how can you see the progress of the battle with your own eyes when you stay here. Do you think so, comrade commander? "

"That's right." Since chisgakov's idea is the same as mine, I naturally want to echo his opinion: "we need to go to the frontier observatory."

"Well, two comrades in command." Barksov saw that we agreed, so he had no choice but to say, "please let me come, and I'll take you to the frontier observatory."

Because our artillery troops are not in place, there is no artillery preparation before the attack. Instead, the tanks open the way in front and the infantry charge behind. However, the commanders of all regiments seemed to have remembered my advice and adjusted the previous attack mode, so that the troops, taking the platoon as the unit, hid behind the tanks and trotted towards the enemy's positions.

When our tanks were only three or four hundred meters away from the German army, the machine guns in the position opened fire fiercely. As the infantry were hiding behind the tank in the shooting corner, the German machine gun bullets hit the armor plate, splashing a string of sparks, it is difficult to do any damage to the infantry behind the tank.

Seeing that the machine gun fire did not work, the German army bombarded them with mortars. As the mortar shells fell around the tank and exploded, the flying shrapnel caused casualties to the commanders and fighters following the tank. Seeing one commander after another fall, chisjakov was a little worried. He patted baksov on the shoulder and asked in a loud voice, "Comrade division, can we use artillery fire to suppress the enemy's mortar?" Barksov said with a sad face: "Comrade deputy commander, the artillery regiment is not in place. It is very difficult to suppress the enemy's firepower only by a few mortars in the division."“ What should we do then? " Chisgakov was a little impatient: "can we watch our soldiers fall under the enemy's fire?"“ Comrade deputy commander, don't worry. " I, who was observing the situation on the battlefield, said to him lightly, "our tanks are not vegetarians. They will kill the enemy's mortar positions." As soon as I spoke, a tank stopped in front of the anti tank trench, slowly turned the turret, aimed its muzzle at the position of the German mortar, and fired decisively. The shell accurately landed near the German mortar and exploded. After a flash of fire, the mortar team that had been firing was silent.
