- This battle was initially called the biggest battle on the Korean battlefield. It was also the largest deployment of troops by both sides since the outbreak of the war. It can be described as a gamble on the fate of the country.
If Japan wins, it will end the passive situation that it has been in for many days. The army can be proud and proud, and the cabinet can also explain to the people. Otherwise, the once powerful country in East Asia will suddenly become a defeated enemy. This change is too sudden, which will be unacceptable and will impact all aspects.
For China, because in the early stage it has been relying on strong troops, excellent equipment, and surprisingly difficult combat rules, which the Japanese call "non-honest and decisive battles," it "wins without using force."
But if we can still completely withstand the Japanese army's all-out attack with roughly the same military strength this time, then completely defeating this evil curse that has been hanging over the Chinese people for many years will make the Chinese government's status unprecedentedly improved. The People's Party's ruling position will also be rock solid!
History has given Fu Zuoyi and others a good opportunity to serve China.
??This army is not necessarily new recruits. Since the Chinese Ministry of National Defense has developed a very excellent national mobilization system, retired officers and soldiers will be incorporated into the reserve force every year as a temporary supplement. In this way, the country will not maintain a large number of soldiers, but can quickly arm itself when needed.
Even the 12 newly established armies are composed of retired veterans, so how can the 24th Army, which has been included in the People's Army for a long time, be called new recruits? At most, it's just that they have no experience in fighting.
But Fu Zuoyi¡¯s ability is here, it¡¯s just that history didn¡¯t give him a larger stage to display before.
In the official history of 1926, he repelled the Kuomintang army at its peak by himself and won the reputation of "City-Defending General". Now he has more soldiers, more food, better equipment, and if he fails to shine, not only the people of the motherland will be disappointed. , even Zhang Hanqing, who wanted to promote him, had a reputation as a "bad employer".
You must know that our young marshal has the extraordinary ability of "seeing people with extraordinary accuracy". Most of his young marshal talents were "discovered" by him when they were unknown, so we follow him gratefully.
Fu Zuoyi did not disappoint him.
On the frontal battlefield about 220 kilometers wide on the Korean peninsula, five corps of the People's Army, the 37th, 18th, 24th, 30th, and 38th, are stationed in sequence from west to east. The average frontal defense line of each army is 44 kilometers, and each army is assigned to Each division is about 15 kilometers. This is not a very promising number.
????????????????????????????????????????? If people are next to each other, they can take turns lining up to one person every meter, which is considered quite dense. However, such a long line of defense must be arranged in depth, and there must be non-frontline combatants such as logistics, artillery, and engineers, and a reserve force as the main force must be left in accordance with the numerous orders of the court, military headquarters, division headquarters, and regiment headquarters. There are not many people who are really on the front line.
In addition, the Japanese army is the attacker and can carry out intensive attacks at a certain point. Therefore, although the number of attackers and defenders is roughly equal, when it comes to a specific offensive or defensive point, the Japanese army's advantage is very obvious.
Amidst the thunderous attacks of the Japanese army, the soldiers of the People's Army endured cruel tests: it was normal for their comrades around them to be killed or injured, and red bullets in the barrels of their guns to miss them. The most terrifying thing was that the Japanese front lines were stacked like hills. There were piles of corpses of officers and soldiers, as well as a steady stream of Yamato warriors who seemed to have no idea what death was.
Attacking and retreating give people completely different courage. The Japanese troops, who were no longer surrounded or chased by the superior People's Army, showed extraordinary combat effectiveness. They regarded death as if they were home, and used each division's 541 light machine guns, 104 heavy machine guns, and 64 artillery pieces to support the Chinese soldiers in the rear. Feel what it means to be a first-class Japanese division.
The tenacity of Little Japan has put commanders and fighters at all levels of the People¡¯s Army under considerable pressure. At the pre-war mobilization meeting, a propaganda team composed of veterans who had participated in the previous battles sent by the General Political Department of the Korean People's Army gave them a detailed introduction to the Japanese army's combat methods and training equipment, but they all thought this was just a legend.
The two most elite main divisions of the Japanese army, the 2nd and 6th, were instantly devoured, and the 19th and 20th standing divisions were annihilated in an instant, filling the entire People's Army with a mentality that the Japanese army was nothing more than this.
But you must know that among the three battles, the first Battle of Kanto Prefecture was a complete surprise attack. It relied on artillery ten times that of the enemy, as well as aircraft and tanks that the Japanese had never dreamed of participating in the battle, and more than five times the number of troops. The advantage is almost overwhelming. The ease of this battle is not worth devaluing the Japanese army's combat effectiveness, and it also took a lot of effort to clear out the trailing enemies.
The second time it was a mobile war, it was also because the Japanese army was not sure about the details of the People's Army, and at the same time it had the shortcoming of being eager for revenge, so it was greatly disrupted by the People's Army generals. In the mountainous areas of Korea, which are not suitable for heavy weapons exchanges, the People's Army, which has a large number of people, also has the advantage of light firepower.In the state of skirmishing combat, it is natural to win with more enemies and fewer enemies, which also does not reflect the Japanese army's strengths as a whole.
Both sides had their own choices in the Third Battle of Seoul, but the People's Army's narrow victory relied entirely on its superiority in firepower. Of course, the courage of the 100th Division is also commendable. The subsequent offensive against the Japanese army achieved a breakthrough under the leadership of tank troops. This was attributed to the Japanese army's insufficient understanding of tank warfare. It could not think of a way to deal with such large-scale armored weapons and was not prepared in peacetime. Likewise, crowds are also a magic weapon.
This time it¡¯s different. With the help of the United States, the Japanese army was equipped with anti-tank squadrons at the brigade level. It also had 155mm heavy artillery and a certain number of tanks that were comparable to those of the People's Army. It also had more aircraft than the People's Army. Coupled with the numerical rivalry and local assembly advantages, the Japanese army was very powerful, and its training ability was also reflected.
¡°Training troops depends on national strength. If national strength is insufficient, even bullets must be used sparingly. In this regard, Japan is extremely wealthy. Japan's military training is carried out in strict accordance with infantry drills. New recruits must undergo five months of intensive training. During this time, new recruits need to receive training in various aspects.
A good shooter is fed by bullets. According to regulations, Japanese army recruits need to use 500 rounds of ammunition during the five months of training. Long-term shooting training is enough to cultivate excellent shooters. In those units composed entirely of veterans, Japanese officers asked soldiers to shoot moving targets on trucks.
In addition to shooting, there are two main courses, namely night fighting and stabbing.
The Chinese soldiers have already seen it before. The way to win is to use modern weapons mixed with swordsmen, which actually makes it impossible for the Japanese army to take advantage of it. As for night battles, because the discipline and training of the People's Army are different from those of the old-style army and even the Beiyang Army, this gap is shrinking.
As for shooting, to be honest, the gap is a bit big. According to previous statistics, the total ammunition consumption of the People's Army was 60 million rounds of bullets. Based on the total annihilation of 150,000 people, it would take an average of 400 rounds to kill or wound one Japanese soldier. This does not include the fact that many of them were contributed by artillery shells!
Fortunately, there are railways from Northeast China and even North China directly to North Korea, and the huge railway transportation volume can withstand such a huge amount of consumption. If they were in the Japanese army, such huge logistics would exhaust their few horses.
Chaosi also discovered this problem, but the training of the army cannot be achieved overnight. In the past, for the sake of economic construction, military expenditures were significantly reduced, resulting in the intensity of army training being far less than that of Japan.
Fortunately, after successive victories, the morale of the People's Army is strong, and the supply of weapons and ammunition is continuous, so overall, the situation is developing in China's favor. After all, many troops have already been baptized by the Korean War and have gained corresponding insights from actual combat experience. They can prepare for future training from a practical perspective, which is many times better than groping behind closed doors.
This is also the reason why Zhang Hanqing insisted on implementing the rotation of troops entering the DPRK. It's useless to say anything. The troops know everything after seeing the blood.
With such confidence, Chaosi was bolder in using troops. No, Ji Yiqiao dared to use five armies to resist the ten Japanese divisions huddled together, while pulling the remaining troops behind to serve as reserves!
" Strategically, you should be contemptuous, but tactically you should pay attention to this. This is the true meaning of Zhang Hanqing.
At first glance, he seemed not to care at all about the increase in Japanese troops and firepower. There were even fewer people in the formation than before. But when you think about the fact that not far from the forward position, the fully armed elite 27th Army is serving as reserve teams in the south of the Han River, Bukhan River, and Soyang River, you know that he wants to use the frontline resistance to wear down the Japanese army. Qi, and then use this surprise weapon to create effects.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? As against the lower one, one blow can be fatal. The task of the 27th Division is to wait until the front line wears down the attacking Japanese army. Now it depends on the 24th Army.
I remain unmoved.
Tunnel combat has always been a nightmare for the attackers. Even the US imperialists who were equipped to the teeth in the 20th century were helpless against the volunteers' tunnel battles. How could the People's Army, whose light and heavy weapons were no weaker than the Japanese army, make its younger generations laugh? The front row was lit, and a steady stream of manpower followed behind. However, in order to avoid large-scale casualties caused by artillery, the number of people on board each time was not large, but it was enough to give the Japanese army a huge lethality.
After the 3rd Division joined the last regiment, An Manqin took a breath of cold air. His troops can definitely be regarded as having outstanding military exploits since the establishment of the Imperial Army, but they were unable to inflict heavy damage on the already widely dispersed army. Because no matter how step by step the Japanese army moved, they could never break through the first line of defense of the People's Army.
God knows how many lines of defense they have!
However, the situation of the People's Army is not good either: a regiment on the front has suffered more than half of its casualties, so it is urgent to transfer a main battalion from each of the two wings with less attack surface to stabilize the situation. Because they were all on the front line of the firefight, the number of casualties suffered by lower-level officers, especially company and platoon commanders, was huge.
Even so, Fu Zuoyi did not agree to use the division as a main regiment of the reserve force. Chaosi's order before the war was to resist as much as possible, or at least to pin the Japanese army to any attack surface.
As a military commander, it is necessary to be considerate of the officers and soldiers, but you must look at this issue from a higher position: the longer the delay, the more obvious the Japanese army's intentions will be exposed, and the greater the chance of counterattack against the rear headquarters.
He is confident that he can do this. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)?Deploy a main battalion each to stabilize the situation.
