Chapter 140: Enemy Reconnaissance
Night attack? This is definitely a crazy idea!
Wang Yang and Shi Donglai really didn't expect Ye Cheng to have such an amazing idea in his small head. You should know that their number minus the injuries and sacrifices, there are only more than 30 people who can fight now, but the enemies below have at least two battalions of troops. This comparison really tastes like touching a stone with an egg.
But what if there is no support from the rocket launcher? Can you hold the position? Wang Yang has no idea at all.
"In fact, even if the rocket launcher cannot be found, if there are some US landmines, it will still have a great effect on dealing with tanks and armored infantry vehicles."
There were countless possibilities flashing through Shi Donglai's mind, and finally he looked at Wang Yang's face. The meaning of his words seemed to be very moved by Ye Cheng's idea.
Because everyone knows that powerful landmines are more difficult to equip for the volunteers, but in the US military camp, this thing is too common. As long as you rush into the enemy camp to find their ammunition depot, the m9 rocket launcher may not be found, but the mines are certainly fine. When this powerful weapon reaches the hands of the volunteers, it often becomes a powerful weapon to deal with US tanks.
"The idea is a good one, but we know too little about the enemy's situation!"
In fact, during the head-on battle with the American Sherman tank, Wang Yang was one of the people who knew the power of the Sherman tank the most. Of course, he knew the power of the enemy tank and said that he was not moved by Ye Cheng's idea. That was definitely fake, but he had to be responsible for everyone, but he thought more than Ye Cheng.
"In principle, I agree with Ye Cheng's idea, but..."
Looking at Ye Cheng's joyful look, Wang Yang said with a serious look on his face: "But I want to send someone to reconnaissance the situation of the enemy camp first. We cannot fight an unsure raid. We can no longer withstand too many casualties!"
"Then I'll go. I've been a communicator before, and my foot strength is OK, and I'll have no problem even if I run back and forth twice or three times!"
Seeing that Wang Yang finally agreed to his plan, Ye Cheng's eyes lit up and he immediately asked Wang Yang for a fight.
"No one is more suitable for this task than me!"
The night was as bright as water, but at this moment, Wang Yang's eyes were as bright as cold stars. He looked at Ye Cheng and smiled:
"I will follow the enemy's defense arrangement and find the most suitable route for you. No one has more say in this than me. I must also know the ability to find routes in the jungle!"
When the Han and Han broke through, if Wang Yang had not led the way, Ye Cheng would not dare to say that they could return to the army safely. Those present were the soldiers of the 180th Division who came from the cruel life and death escape. They still remembered the situation Wang Yang said, and there was no reason to refute it.
"In addition, we have a small number of people. So even if we launch a night attack, the attack speed should be fast and the fight must be firm. Then we must not be too greedy for the results of the battle. We should immediately get through after we get the weapon. So, once I have reconnaissed the enemy's camp environment and feel that night attacks can occur, then I will shoot a flame behind the backlit rocks of the enemy camp. As long as I see my signal, you can launch an attack along the route I pointed out!"
Seeing that Ye Cheng was still unwilling to accept and wanted to compete with him again, Wang Yang seemed to have been confident. He pointed to a frontier on the position and said seriously:
"Yecheng, you will take two soldiers to observe carefully at that position. As long as you see me sending out three open flames in a row, you must attack resolutely, but if not, you must not act rashly."
"Captain, you have decided, then what else can I say!"
Ye Cheng curled his lips helplessly. Wang Yang didn't give him this opportunity at all. Now he gave him a useless task, which really made him feel a little unwilling.
"I have a good marksmanship. Even if I can't attack at night, I might be able to kill a few enemy commanders at night. I'll delay the enemy's attack tomorrow. It's not that I won't give you a chance. I'll have nothing to say when you've practiced your marksmanship!"
Seeing Ye Cheng's appearance, the reason Wang Yang said made Ye Cheng have nothing to say anymore. He really didn't have the courage to compete with Wang Yang in shooting skills. Anyway, the four of them had seen it, so there was no way to compare it.
"But then you have to be careful. After all, you are the captain. If there is an accident, it will be very harmful to morale!"
Shi Donglai didn't stop him, but the concern in his eyes and what he said made Wang Yang feel warm in his heart.
"Don't worry, I won't sacrifice so easily. I will never go to see Marx until I finish fighting the foreign devils!"
With a confident smile, it was not once or twice to get behind enemy lines. Speaking of lurking experience, there was actually no one in the Meteor Squad that could compare with him. Not to let Ye Cheng let him take action personally is the safest way. Moreover, Wang Yang also has a certain psychological burden on commanding this team now. He never wants the meteor warriors to suffer any damage. Now Shi Donglai is in charge of the position. He is very relieved that he is alone in the battle behind enemy lines. Perhaps his favorite fighting method is his favorite.
Looking at Shi Donglai and Li Xiaobu, Wang Yang stared at it and said, "Then you will rely on you on the position. I will set out now to let the soldiers prepare for the battle, but I must rest immediately now. If you have the chance, you must not miss the opportunity to destroy the enemy."
"Don't worry, with us here, it will not be so easy for the enemy to attack us at night!"
Shi Donglai didn't say anything else. In fact, in his opinion, Wang Yang was also the most suitable candidate to reconnaissance the situation of the enemy camp. Although he was injured, he could not move easily to avoid opening the wound. But his face was full of firmness, as if he was there, Wang Yang could definitely rest assured.
"But no matter what the situation is, we hope you will come back safely!"
Looking at Wang Yang, the three of them had different expressions on their faces. Perhaps Wang Yang's command ability was not very rich, but he could always take the lead and stand up at the most critical moment. There was nothing to complain about with such a captain, the Meteor Squad. They just hope that this warrior could still be as magical as before and lead them to a new victory again.
―――――――――――――
In the dark night, on the bare hilly high ground, a strong figure ran in the jungle. He was like a nighthawk in the jungle, and his figure quickly jumped forward, making people feel that he seemed to have merged with the night. It was really not easy to find such a figure in the night.
Although there is a better weather on the Korean Peninsula during the summer season, for Wang Yang at this time, the gloomy night at this time seems to have become his best cover. When he thinks about the cruel battles that the meteor warriors will face tomorrow, if he doesn't want those young cultural instructors to sacrifice less, he will have to find weapons to deal with enemy tanks tonight anyway.
After many battles, it seems that the US military still has a certain understanding of the volunteer army's ability to attack the night. Their camp is actually a long distance from the volunteer army's positions. Although you can see the lights in the US military camp from afar, Wang Yang rushed for about five kilometers and saw the sentinel at the gate of the enemy camp.
Although there may be only two battalions of troops, the enemy's camp is not small, and it stands along the mountain. Behind the camp is a large dense forest. In the night, the enemy's camp is connected to the dense forest. Even if the volunteers want to attack, it is not necessarily easy to attack.
Wang Yang saw at a glance that there were several Sherman main battle tanks and T18 armored infantry vehicles parked in front of the enemy camp. This was the enemy's current military force. Who knows if there will be reinforcements when attacking tomorrow? To be honest, Wang Yang felt that the US military was actually very cunning, because when he got closer to the enemy camp, he found that there were lights about ten kilometers backwards about ten kilometers away from the enemy camp. There must be an enemy camp there.
The enemy camps are almost connected one by one. They control a considerable combat area on the battlefield. If one camp is attacked by the volunteers, someone will go to rescue the other camp. If you want to attack the enemy camp, you must not only have a fast speed, but also have to strike very fiercely. Otherwise, not only will it not be able to eliminate the enemy's role, but it will also suffer serious losses.
"The light is so bright. How can we lurk into the enemy's camp!"
The First American Cavalry Division is a very skilled division. Moreover, for the volunteers who are already sensitive to night attack capabilities, they have made the enemy look like a frightened bird with great fear. The rich and powerful enemy camp is brightly lit, which almost shines the area of more than ten meters around the camp. In this case, it really makes people feel that they have no idea to start.
You should know that once the night attack is exposed, the powerful crossfire in the enemy's camp will make it difficult for the volunteers who lack artillery and planes to attack. This has suffered a lot in the Battle of Dipingli that year. It took nearly five to ten times the enemy's troops to be defeated. Therefore, if you cannot rush into the enemy's camp as soon as possible, then Wang Yang and his night attack plan will be like suicide.
"I don't believe that I can't find the place to attack you. These bad guys are too arrogant!"
Seeing that the US military was very strict in front of the enemy camp, Wang Yang believed that with the firepower of the meteor warriors, he would not be able to attack even if he was surprised. So Wang Yang had to conduct more detailed reconnaissance around the enemy camp. Fortunately, Wang Yang came out to reconnaissance early, so the enemy camp has not yet fallen asleep. There are free-moving US soldiers and South Korean officers and soldiers everywhere. In this noisy situation, the enemy rarely pays attention to Wang Yang outside the camp.
From a distance, Wang Yang saw that these guys had much more entertainment activities than the volunteers. You could see casually drinking coffee and holding cigarettes everywhere in the camp. A group of soldiers sitting together to talk about the mountains, and even heard melodious phonograph music in some areas of the camp. Several American soldiers were hugging each other and dancing ballroom dances, smiling particularly unrestrainedly. When Wang Yang despised their relaxation, he had to say that it was their relaxation that gave him great convenience for reconnaissance.
"It seems that we still have to attack the South Korean army!"
After a long circle in the enemy's camp, Wang Yang finally discovered a situation that was beneficial to them. The enemy's most tight defense was actually in front of the camp. Looking at the Sherman main battle tank and T18 armored infantry vehicle in front of the camp, as well as the US guards on the lookout post at the camp gate, I guess the front of the camp was the troops of the First Cavalry Division.
However, the arrogant Americans would not choose to camp with the South Korean army. Theirs actually camped in front of the camp, so the defense behind must be handed over to the South Korean troops. When they thought that even if the volunteers wanted to attack, they would choose to go straight ahead of the camp gate. The volunteers in the back were not easy to attack. Although the combat effectiveness of South Korea was low, there was no problem to defend here.
It has to be said that the strategic arrangement of the US military is not bad, because in modern combat, if an armoured force is to attack the enemy's camp, the armored forces will generally break through the enemy's camps head-on, and then send infantry to expand the results, thus determining the victory of the battle. Then the formation is of course the main attack direction. As for the dense forests and highlands, armored assaults that are not suitable for any force at all. If there is no armored force to attack the camp with modern weapons, it will definitely be defeated under powerful firepower, so naturally the US military will be ignored in the rear camps standing against the mountains and forests.
However, the US military made strategic thinking mistakes in the European war. They may have forgotten that the equipment difference between the Volunteers and the Korean People's Army was not even as good as the troops of the Korean People's Army back then. At least the Korean People's Army and the Russian-sponsored T-34 tanks. That kind of tank even had a certain advantage in the battle between Sherman's main battle tanks. The US military often screamed and rushed to their camps back then.
The volunteer army was poor and lagging behind the North Korea, which was funded by the Soviet Union. However, it was just such an army that performed better than the highly equipped German tanks, which made the US military and its allies anxious. They relied on their legs and steel guns in their hands, and surprisingly unexpected attack tactics. It was even more natural to attack through the dense forest without armor. The camps like the US and South Korean troops really gave Wang Yang and others an excellent opportunity to attack him.
Looking from the mountains and forests behind the enemy camp, the enemy camp was brightly lit, which was conducive to their guarding, but also facilitated Wang Yang's observation of the defense camp of the South Korean troops.
Because the US military is in the front, the South Korean troops are not taken seriously and feel a little depressed. Therefore, they are really careless when guarding the rear camp. The sentry guards in the camp are obviously fewer than those in the front camp, and their mental outlook is several levels worse. Just like the previous Volunteer Commander-in-Chief General Peng Dehuai every time he chose the main attack direction, Wang Yang is also very honored to have such an enemy that can attack.
Two military cars were parked in front of the rear battalion, and beside him was a row of barracks. Three South Korean soldiers patrolled the military cars back and forth. According to Wang Yang's repeated attacks and crossing the enemy's camp, there were usually enemy ammunition and oil depots in their locations. If they wanted to seize important weapons in the enemy's barracks, this must be a key area to watch.
Wang Yang carefully observed the situation in the enemy camp, looked at the watch in his hand. In order to consider the time for combat, he came out to reconnaise around 8 o'clock in the evening. It was only less than ten o'clock, and the enemy had not completely fallen asleep. Now many South Korean soldiers and American soldiers gathered together in groups of three or five in the camp, looking extremely peaceful and relaxed.
If you want to successfully attack the enemy camp successfully, the best attack time is after one o'clock in the evening, which means that Wang Yang still has plenty of time to reconnaissance the enemy situation more clearly. Look left and right, the enemy's camp is really too bright. If you have the opportunity to destroy the enemy's power equipment, it will be more beneficial to the night attack. Unfortunately, standing on the mountain forest, you can't find the location of the enemy's power equipment anyway. This really makes Wang Yang a little anxious. It seems that he must find a way to get into the enemy camp, or capture an enemy's captive?
However, I have to say that Wang Yang's luck is really good. When he wanted to sleep, there were people who brought him a pillow. Wang Yang was frowning and thinking about entering the enemy camp with bright lights and tight guards. Suddenly, there was a noise coming from the rear camp guarded by the South Korean troops. A large group of South Korean soldiers actually came out of the rear camp. These soldiers were fully armed and seemed to be going to perform some tasks. They heard their complaints from afar.
Seeing this situation, Wang Yang couldn't help but lit up, and he immediately followed without thinking...
