Chapter 911： Pyre tactics

Precise shooting and the use of sniping to kill the enemy is just a small-scale exchange of fire. Large-scale battles do not require special aiming. What is needed is to dump the bullets as soon as possible, and to smash the most bullets in the shortest time. On the enemy's body, even if the opponent cannot be killed, at least the opponent's firepower must be suppressed.

This is the significance of the emergence of assault rifles. Compared with submachine guns, it has a longer range and more powerful bullets. At the same time, because they all use drums, they have large capacity and strong firepower.

Under their attack, the opposing Soviet army could not lift its head at all. Their heavy weapons could not be deployed, and they were all frozen by the bad weather!

The Finns’ tactical choice is quite appropriate. If they are attacking from the west, the opponent’s artillery can greet them. But now, they are attacking from the east. The frozen artillery can’t be turned and is frozen. The anti-aircraft machine gun cannot be leveled.

So, the only thing that these artillery can use is the Monashingan rifle, but unfortunately, how can this single-shot bolt-action rifle be comparable to the MP40?

Bullets continued to fly over, and when the brave soldiers were killed, the rest of them could only bow their heads and lie on the snowdrift, for fear that they would also be killed.

Under the suppression of firepower, the Finnish skiers rushed up one by one, and soon rushed to the high ground!

They held Somi submachine guns, pointed at these Soviet artillery, and the trembling Soviets raised their hands.

In this way, the last guarantee and greatest support of the 44th Division has fallen into the hands of the Finnish army. From here, they can cut off the logistics supplies of the Soviet army at any time.

Now, there is only one thing left, take the town of Haukira!

There were not many garrisons in the town. When the Soviets attacked here, the Finnish army retreated. At the same time, the ordinary citizens in the town also retreated. Before leaving, they burned down their houses.

In the freezing weather, nothing can be left to the Soviets to keep out the cold!

When the battle in the highlands started, the garrison in the town, a unit of hundreds of people, was awakened. They moved very quickly. Within a few minutes, they got dressed and picked up their guns. Rushed out.

Unfortunately, the Finns moved faster. When they rushed to the high ground and prepared for reinforcements, the Finnish army had already occupied the high ground!

"Fire!" When seeing the Soviets rushing over, almost without hesitation, the soldiers who had just occupied here opened fire.

"Boom!" The 75mm recoilless gun had a fiery fire from the muzzle, and a high-explosive grenade flew out of the muzzle and flew towards the opposite side.

"Boom!" The Soviet soldiers who had just run out of the town were hit by an artillery shell. At this time, they were already confused.

They thought it was their own large-caliber howitzers shooting! The infantry charged towards the artillery position, it was simply looking for death! Therefore, although a small number of soldiers are still charging, most of them have already withdrawn.

When the countless machine guns on the opposite side rang out, they did not hesitate anymore, and ran back and forth, eastward, and returned to their homeland!

Looking at the repelled Soviet soldiers, everyone cheered. They had blocked the Soviet retreat!

"Quickly, deploy the position immediately and prepare for the most violent counterattack from the Soviets!" Captain Rasila shouted.

They blocked the only way for the Soviets to go home, and at the same time, they also cut off the Soviets' logistical supply channel. At this time, the Soviets will definitely launch a fierce attack on their side!

Everyone got busy, lighting fires, lighting torches, baking these cannons and anti-aircraft guns, adjusting their positions, preparing to block the Latai Highway, and at the same time welcoming the arrival of the final general attack.

The news that the town of Haukila in the rear was occupied by Finland reached Vinogradov's ears only three hours later. When he heard the terrible news, his expression suddenly changed.

"Order our armored forces to go back immediately, open the hole, and the armored trucks follow, we break through the blockade behind and retreat!" Vinogradov no longer hesitated.

He did not dare to move forward, and it was no longer safe to stay where he was. After the road was blocked, his only choice was to retreat!

If he retreats from the beginning, there is no problem, but now, his soldiers have lost their combat effectiveness in the severe cold, and retreating at this time is an impossible task!

"Boom, boom, boom!" Just after he gave the order, there was a huge explosion in the distance.

"Commander, commander, our mid-range troops were covered by artillery fire, and they suffered heavy casualties!" The subordinate's report quickly came up.

Finland's general offensive has begun!

More than a dozen kilometers away, the artillery of the Finnish Ninth Division fired at the Soviet Union's serpentine position, shooting for half an hour, making them feel like the end of the world.

"Oh, hurry, avoid!" A Soviet soldier squatted halfway in the snow pit, trying to avoid the artillery attack, but after that, he was surprised to see that on the opposite mountain, a large piece of snow fell as a whole!

The vibration of the artillery fire caused a terrible avalanche here! At their location, just at the foot of the mountain, on the slope, the thousands of cubic meters of snow just slipped down like a mudslide.

They want to hide, but there is nowhere to hide!

Thirty seconds later the snow here fell down, covering everything around it, a full dozen meters high!

The Soviet troops were also divided into two parts!

The news one by one made people extremely collapsed. In despair, Soviet soldiers watched the Finnish troops emerge from the snow-covered woods on both sides. Their tactics were not much different from before.

Through continuous interspersed and surprise attacks, they further divided and compressed Soviet positions. After being divided into small pieces, Soviet soldiers will soon lose confidence in resistance.

This tactic is called "pile tactics." The word "pile" in Finnish refers to the firewood piled together to be chopped. According to the tradition of the Finns, they would cut down the trees and pile them together, and then deal with them one by one in the future.

Here, it means that when the Finns lack sufficient firepower to destroy the Soviet “pile” that gathers a large number of soldiers and weapons, they will pile them up first, and then wait, either by themselves or by Use cold and hunger to destroy the enemy.

For the 44th Division, now is the last moment.
