Rebirth of the National Marshal

The people from the 7th and 8th Security Regiments also concentrated most of the armored vehicles in the regiment. Only such things could keep up with the pace of the tanks. If they really relied on their own legs, they would definitely not be able to keep up with those armored regiments. If they lost them at that time, it would be a huge embarrassment.

The armored forces have very strong assault capabilities, but if they face infantry, they also need the cover of the infantry, otherwise the losses will be very heavy. Just like in the battlefield in the Yangtze River Delta, the Japanese tank troops suffered a lot of losses. Many national army soldiers covered themselves with grenades and rushed forward to die together with the Japanese tanks, which also caused them a lot of losses. It is hard to imagine that these Soviets would have such courage. It seems that they are all a group of cowards.

But we have to be prepared for everything. What if they also have the spirit of sacrificing for their country? Wouldn't our armored regiment suffer? Although these regiment commanders fought fiercely, they all understood the importance of unity on the battlefield. Therefore, the commanders of the two regiments also ordered their soldiers to protect the tanks well and not let the Soviet infantry rush up, especially the infantry carrying explosives.

Mao Yuanshan looked at his watch, which was given to him by Mr. Chiang Bai-ri and was considered a luxury item in this world.

"Order the artillery to conduct fifteen minutes of artillery preparation. The Armored Regiment will be the vanguard, and the Sixth and Seventh Security Regiments will be the center. All of them, charge forward." As Mao Yuanshan gave the order, the entire position seemed to have experienced an earthquake. Thousands of artillery pieces roared. They were all 105mm howitzers. There were also some 100mm mortars loaded on jeeps, which also began to advance to the front of the position. Because their range was relatively short, if they wanted to exert their power, they had to move forward a little. Although it was more dangerous, the staff of the army had calculated that the power exerted by a 100mm mortar was basically equivalent to that of two 105mm howitzers.

Our beloved Marshal Timoshenko was drinking coffee in his tent. You know, in the Soviet army, officers of his level can drink coffee frequently, unlike American soldiers. Ordinary soldiers in the American army can enjoy such treatment. This is also a gap in the military strength of the two countries. Suddenly, he saw his coffee cup jumping violently. This is not an earthquake zone, and the probability of an earthquake can be said to be very low. This shows one reason, that is, the enemy's artillery fire has started to attack again, and our artillery fire has been destroyed.

These damn Chinese, can't they be quiet for a while? Just now there was a wave of airstrikes, and now the shells are coming down again. Your shells are so cheap. Our supply lines are very long, and your supply lines are not short either. Do your shells just fall from the sky? You bombard them every day without any interval. Where do you get your shells? Almost all Soviets have this feeling, as if the Chinese shells are free. Do you produce your shells locally? But I don't see any processing plants on your positions!

Of course, these artillery shells were not produced locally, but exchanged locally. Because Mao Yuanshan appeared in this place, it meant that the local army could use various weapons and ammunition without restrictions. What were artillery shells to them?

After we destroyed one truck, they prepared two trucks for us. Of course, we don't have to worry about wasting shells. There is no problem with the chance that one person will be killed by two shells. We have plenty of people and money. We can use these steels to pile you up to death. That's our ability. If you don't feel satisfied, you can also use shells to attack us!

Such shelling operations occurred almost every day during these few days, so the Soviet army basically adapted to this type of operation.

In their opinion, whenever the security army fired artillery, they could just find an anti-artillery hole to hide in. They were not going to attack, they just wanted to put some pressure on us. The artillery fire would stop in half an hour at most, and then we could go out and clean up the bodies of those unlucky brothers. They ran slowly, and if they had run faster, they might have survived. After all, there were only so many anti-artillery holes, and there were many more people than them.

Not only ordinary soldiers had such thoughts, but Marshal Timoshenko also had such thoughts while hiding in the air-raid shelter. He was much better than ordinary soldiers. It was very difficult for ordinary soldiers to even move in the air-raid shelter. He also had a small staff command center inside, which was much better than other ordinary soldiers.

After two minutes of shelling, Marshal Timoshenko clearly felt that something was wrong. In fact, it was not just her who felt something was wrong. Some experienced veterans also felt something was wrong. Although the Chinese artillery fire came every day, it was definitely not as fierce as today. Today it seemed to be mixed with a lot of other things, and the vibration was obviously different.

No, this should be the Chinese people's attack. Although there were artillery preparations in the past, the density was definitely not that strong. Now the intensity is more than twice as strong as usual, because usually there is only one artillery regiment conducting shelling, but today there are three artillery regiments directly. It can be said that all the artillery of the Chinese army has been used.

"Pass my order down immediately. As soon as the enemy's shelling ends, immediately take up position. The enemy is about to attack." Marshal Timoshenko gave an order while holding onto the wall. The sound of artillery outside was deafening, and it felt like the whole body was knocked over.

Are the Chinese going to attack? The staff officers here still don't believe it. In their opinion, aren't the Chinese just preparing for an ordinary artillery attack? There is absolutely no way they can attack. How many people do they have? Our number is several times theirs. In the minds of these ordinary staff officers, war is still the same as before, with victory or defeat determined by numbers. If victory or defeat can really be determined by numbers, what is the point of war?

Just pull out the people. Which country in the world has more people than China? Then China must win. Unfortunately, war depends on many aspects, not just the number of troops. Just like now, the Chinese army is small, but they are going to win.
