Chapter 13 Advance (1)
Smoking smoke was leisurely covered with dead branches, and when the wisps of green smoke were breathing in and out of his mouth, shocking gunshots sounded, accompanied by gunfire, a seemingly tough prisoner died.
"Bang!" After every crisp sound, a Japanese prisoner of war was shot on the forehead. With the splashing blood mist, the slowly flowing brain, a life that was originally extremely precious was abandoned like the most valuable garbage.
For a person, death may not be enough to destroy all the spirits, but what is particularly terrifying is that you not only have to face death, but also have to watch it approach step by step. Without a strong will, an ordinary person will soon be destroyed by the step-by-step pressure.
When a Japanese prisoner of war who was trying to make a noble gesture in front of Kluchkov for so-called dignity, he killed his guns one after another, and when the blood and brains splashed out from the back of his head gradually dyed red and fell leaves all over the ground, groups of prisoners of war around the minefield began to change, fear gradually appeared in their eyes and faces...
People are very strange. They often follow a rule called the "domino effect"  ̄ ̄ On the battlefield, a small group of people can often lead a large number of troops thereafter. Similarly, a small group of people can also lead a large number of troops thereafter. The so-called defeat is like a mountain. Today, in this confrontation between bloody means and the so-called "Bushido" spirit, this rule also plays a role.
With the emergence of the first coward, a large number of Japanese prisoners of war began to follow him at camera, and the lucky people began to choose substitutes among their former comrades, while the unfortunate part rolled into the minefield with a hint of luck.
As of this morning when Chu Sinan heard about this, the work of "living people rolling into thunder" was still going on. In the past half day and one night, six huge minefields had swallowed more than 300 lives. In addition, those who were executed on the spot due to resistance, more than a thousand prisoners of war were killed.
"You are so chaotic. You are simply playing the piano randomly!" Chu Sinan retracted his gaze and glared at the indifferent Kluchkov beside him, and scolded him, "You are still a soldier and are still responsible for the important task of cultivating our military committee members at all levels. Do you know that it is a shameless bandit act for unarmed prisoners and killings?! How can you be competent for the work you undertake in this way?!"
Liuchkov whispered.
"What is it!" Chu Sinan shouted sternly. From the beginning, Klyuchkov had this kind of despicable virtue. He scolded him without refuting anything, but just blindly "yes, yes, yes".
"I tell you, the nature of this matter is very bad. Comrade Tukhachevsky has always hated the extremely inhumane practice of massacre prisoners. If he knew everything you did, no one would be able to save you!" Chu Sinan continued to shout loudly, "And the war we are fighting here is now attracting attention from the whole world. If this matter is disclosed by Western media, do you know how much impact it will have on us?"
This time Klyuchkov didn't say anything, he lowered his head and said nothing.
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to pay attention to you," Chu Sinan seemed to have scolded him enough. He waved his hand and said, "You think carefully and write a piece of materials for me. I need to have an explanation to the Kremlin."
"I get it, I will do it." Kluchkov nodded.
Chu Sinan turned around and looked at the terrible minefield again, then said casually: "Well, this time I have a great responsibility for my affairs. It is wrong to blame you one-sidedly. Your report is to be realistic and you must not be able to hide anything in slackness."
After saying this, Chu Sinan did not look back and walked straight towards the command center. He also had to go back and prepare for it so that he could fly to the fourth-line war zone in a few hours.
Behind Chu Sinan, Lukoonki followed closely. He now understood what Klyuchkov said yesterday. Although Chu Sinan scolded Klyuchkov for being a little bitch, it was actually impossible for the latter to be punished for this matter.  ̄  ̄  ̄ Required to submit a report and give Chu Sinan the responsibility. So who should deal with this matter? The Kremlin or the Security Committee? If it is the Security Committee, then forget it. There, it seems that he, Chu Sinan, punishes others. If it is the Kremlin, it is impossible. Tukhachevsky's group of people could not attack his confidant.
While Chu Sinan scolded Klyuchkov, a battle that lasted half a day and a night was still going on in the Dongning area hundreds of kilometers away. In order to capture the first frontline defense line of the Japanese Dongning Fortress, Krelov and Romisov had not closed their eyes for a whole day and a night.
In a trench under a flat hill, Krelov stood in a trench and carefully looked at the distant hillside through the telescope in his hand. There, more than a dozen underground fire points of the Japanese army roared wildly, forming a picture of astronomy, which blocked the direction of the Soviet army's advance.
There is no doubt that Krelov and Romizov, as senior generals of the Soviet army, naturally had rich experience in commanding operations, but they did not deal with such a battle similar to a turtle shell.
Now Dikrelov and Romizov finally understand why before coming to this line, Chu Sinan once said that their task was quite arduous. At the same time, the troops assigned to them were the strongest and the firepower was the strongest.
On the rolling foothills of the Dongning-Hutou line, the Japanese army built a series of strong fortifications that were closely linked to each other and could also cover each other. Some of these fortifications were on the surface, while most were underground, and some were even inside the mountains. In this case, the Soviet artillery advantage did not play any role. Fierce artillery bombardment and air strikes could only destroy the Japanese ground fortifications, but those bunkers hidden underground and made of reinforced concrete were not affected at all.
Since the attack on the Japanese fortress on this front line, it has been the fourth day. In fact, without Chu Sinan scolding, Krelov and his two faces were dull. Hundreds of thousands of troops, hundreds of ground tanks, and thousands of artillery attacked for four consecutive days but failed to achieve any results. This really makes people feel depressed.
In the operation of the mountainous areas of Dongning and Hutou, the Japanese did spend a lot of effort. The fortress they built was not only solid, but also had complete facilities and strong firepower. Krelov even doubted whether the Japanese had a complete self-sufficiency military system in the continuous mountains and ridges.
Yesterday morning, Krelov and his two were once again scolded by Chu Sinan, the highest commander of the war zone. Unlike the first scolding he received, this time, Chu Sinan gave them the last ultimatum.  ̄ It is necessary to seize the Japanese position on this line before 12 noon today.
Not only that, Krelov and his two must clean up all the Japanese bunkers in the nearby areas before Chu Sinan arrives, at least not leave hidden Japanese soldiers. Otherwise, once Chu Sinan arrives on time and there is an accident here, the consequences will be unimaginable. Neither Krelov nor Romisov will bear this responsibility. The deputy commander of the Supreme Command of the All-Sui Sui had an accident on his own position. This may be a joke to others, but for Krelov and Romisov, it will be a disaster, and they will not even have time to cry.
It is precisely because of this sense of oppression that Krelov and Romisov negotiated and decided to change the tactics of full-line impact over the past few days, and locked the main attack direction to the foothill pass in front of him, focusing on seizing the two Japanese bunker areas opposite with very small slopes but dense firepower.
The main reason why Krelov and Romisov set the focus of their attack here is that the terrain of this area is low. Through the frontier fire positions of the Japanese army, the Soviet artillery can directly suppress the artillery fire points behind them, thereby providing cover for the charge troops. At the same time, the low terrain also facilitates the armored troops to directly enter combat and use them to provide support for infantry.
Krelov and his two believe one thing, that is, the Japanese army's huge fortress system must have a connection between them, so that their defenses can be integrated. In this case, as long as a breakthrough is achieved at a certain point in the overall defense line, the subsequent battle will be easy.
However, although Krelov and his two were well conceived, what they got in actual combat was still zero results.
After a day and night of battle, the Soviet army paid a heavy price to seize these two "tugangzis" that were less than fifty meters high but were connected. Through the telescope, we can see that at least twenty Soviet tanks were destroyed on the slowly climbing slope. The thick black smoke and the corpses everywhere made people wonder that they had fallen into the hell of the Asura god.
"Dou!Dou!"
A harsh whistle sounded again from the Soviet army's main attack position. With this whistle that heralds the charge, more than a dozen tanks formed a scattered formation that extended the Soviet camp and rushed to the Japanese positions with rolling smoke. Following behind the tank were a large number of Soviet soldiers.
Now Krelov and Romizov have figured it out. They no longer care about how much price or sacrifice they need to pay. As long as they can take a frontier position of the Japanese army, they will be willing to organize tanks to attack. Their role is not only to cooperate with the charge of infantry. Those destroyed tanks can also become the best bunker, so that the Soviet infantry can advance the front line step by step to the Japanese positions.
The tactics of Krelov and his two others seemed to have had a certain effect. In this charge just launched, a group of Soviet soldiers successfully approached several cross-fire points of the Japanese army and found support bunkers near some destroyed tanks.
"Okay!" Krelov put down the telescope in his hand, turned around and said to Romisov, "Comrade Romisov, it seems that we are not far from the time of victory!"
"But we don't have much time left." Romisov looked at the watch in his hand and said with a melancholy expression.
Krelov was slightly stunned, then looked at his watch, hesitated for a moment before saying, "Let's go ahead!"
Romisov glanced at him and immediately understood his thoughts. He wanted to bring Chu Sinan's approach to use it.
"Then should we let the artillery attack stop for a while?" Romisov said after hesitating. "Their load was too high this day and night. I just received a call from Comrade Sukhorov. He said that some artillery had cracked the barrel due to long-term and irregular bombardment. If not..."
"There is no if!" Before Romisov finished speaking, Krelov shook his head and said, "Now is not the time for them to maintain artillery, nor is it a time for them to be stingy with equipment. What I need is the artillery's complete suppression of the enemy's firepower. As for the rest, it is not what I consider."
