Chapter 769 Chinese Proficiency Needs to Be Improved
In order to strengthen the firepower of the Yuanshan Liberation Brigade, Wang Meng ordered transport planes to transport all the light and heavy machine guns captured in the Battle of Central Henan to Hohhot, and then transport them to Saida without stopping.
If this batch of supplies can arrive before the battle begins, it will greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of the Liberation Brigade. By then, no matter whether you are riding a tall horse or a short mule, you can be reborn in a moment.
Light and heavy machine guns allow nomadic people to sing and dance well and be multi-talented.
The next afternoon, Wang Meng arrived at the Liberation Brigade camp three kilometers north of Ulanqab.
At this moment, Yuanshan was directing the Mongolian soldiers to dig pits in a dusty manner.
"Brigade Commander Yuanshan, how are you preparing?"
When Yuanshan saw Wang Meng coming, he immediately clapped his hands and went to greet him.
"Chief of Staff, you are here. We are almost ready. When building fortifications, I also sent a number of officers to visit the positions of the Volunteer Army and learn from them. We dug completely according to their standards."
Wang Meng jumped into the trench, which was more than one person high. There were many shooting positions built on the north side, so he could stand and shoot.
A number of anti-artillery holes were also dug on the north side, which were only about two meters deep, just enough to fit in.
"Yes, this standard is acceptable. These are life-saving items. Don't fool yourself."
After Wang Meng finished speaking, he stepped on the edge and climbed up, then took Yuanshan to the artillery position.
At this time, the artillery was calibrating the firing parameters so that they could fire quickly when the Mobei People's Army charged.
"Chief of Staff, we have a direct artillery regiment, two mountain artillery battalions equipped with 24 Type 36 mountain guns, and two infantry artillery battalions equipped with Type infantry guns, a total of artillery pieces."
"Well, the 94th Division's mountain artillery has a relatively long range of eight kilometers. It can be placed in a relatively distant artillery position to prevent the Japanese from destroying it all at once. In addition, the artillery fortifications must be made as solid as possible. Don't be stingy with the wood, and lay it up as much as possible!
If something is broken, we can seize it again, but if a person is gone, then they are really gone!"
Yuanshan nodded again, still taking notes in his little notebook.
"Okay, how are you going to use your artillery?"
"We should wait for the enemy to tire themselves out and not engage in an artillery battle. When the enemy artillery begins to bombard, we should first detect the enemy artillery positions, and then use infantry or mountain artillery with a longer range to destroy their artillery!
The infantry artillery positions are responsible for attacking the enemy's cavalry. Once they charge, they will immediately launch a fierce artillery attack! "
"Well, yes, but it's not that easy to destroy the People's Army's artillery positions. You must be fully prepared."
Wang Meng and Yuanshan walked around the artillery position and returned to the front-line position again. After all, once this position was breached, it would basically mean the fall of Saida.
Brigade Commander Yuanshan chuckled and came up to Wang Meng.
“Chief of Staff, I plan to have the soldiers dig a row of deep trenches on the south side of the minefield after they have built the trenches. When their cavalry charge, they will inevitably fall into them.
Although it is only useful for the first echelon of cavalry, it is better than nothing."
"Yes, a big victory requires the accumulation of countless small victories. In addition, I suggest that you put some chevaux de frise and barbed wire before or after the deep trench to make the enemy focus on the chevaux de frise.
This is the secret of repairing the plank road in the open while marching through Chencang in secret! "
Brigade Commander Yuanshan took out his notebook again and wrote down page by page. These were all knowledge points!
"Yeah, the Chief of Staff is still cunning!"
Wang Meng was confused. Who taught Yuan Shan Chinese? His level fluctuated greatly!
"Well, Commander Yuanshan, your Chinese needs to be improved! We can describe the enemy as cunning, but we can describe our comrades as wise and clever!"
Yuanshan took out his little notebook again and wrote it down. It was all useful information.
"Chief of Staff, I have learned a lot from you today. Brigade Commander Wei told me that listening to you for a moment is worth ten years of study!"
Wang Meng felt a little embarrassed. Although he still had some wisdom, he had not reached this level yet.
"Okay, okay, you go ahead and do your work for a while. After you finish setting up the minefield, be alert and don't let the herdsmen get in. Also, has Captain Ye organized the people in the city to take refuge?"
"Well, we have been organizing the people to evacuate south since yesterday. All the vehicles of our mechanized infantry regiment are helping the people evacuate south. However, we have been running non-stop and the gasoline is being consumed too quickly!"
"Don't worry about this little bit of gasoline. Once we control the eastern part of Mongolia, we can mine oil and refine it on site. By then, let alone two mechanized infantry regiments, we can supply even ten more!"
The pie Wang Meng drew made Yuanshan choke. He was still worried about defending Saida, but now he directly controlled the entire western Mongolia? And there were oil fields?
"Chief of Staff, will that day ever come?"
"Captain Yuanshan, please remember this: there is a phrase called 'follow the trend'. We should strive for what the people need and change and develop in line with the trend of the times. With the joint efforts of 600,000 Mongolian compatriots, there is no mountain that cannot be climbed... no obstacle that cannot be overcome?"
Yuanshan is now full of confidence, as if he is ready to fight a battle with the Mobei People's Army and send these traitors who have committed such evil deeds to hell.
"Okay, continue to implement the plan. Also, send more scouts. If the enemy has new weapons and equipment, or if there are any unusual movements, report immediately!"
After Wang Meng finished his instructions, he returned to his yurt.
What he is most concerned about now is the situation of Weidong and his group. Although Weidong will report the day's situation every night, the closer they are to Ulan Baituo, the more complicated the situation will be.
According to the plan, they would be transported to the outskirts of Hulan by the transport team of Bayakin, the "full-time businessman" of the Liberation Brigade, and then change horses and lurk near the airport.
Bayakin directly contacted the big businessman Morgedai who was entrusted by Ulanbai, and behind Morgedai was the Minister of Internal Affairs Namuslai.
Almost no one dared to intercept a caravan with this background, and even if the People's Army stopped it, they would immediately apologize and bow after seeing the documents with red stamps, and then let the caravan go.
Naturally, all the supplies in the back of the carriages were also “exempt from inspection”.
With the assistance of Bayakin's caravan, Weidong and his hundred men were not only spared the pain of the bumpy ride on horseback, but their speed was also greatly increased. The 600-kilometer journey could be completed in three days, traveling day and night.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, so the convoy stopped to rest for a while. Bayajin brought beef jerky, fried rice and water to the soldiers.
"Captain Wei, you are going to Hulan for an important mission this time, right?"
Wei Dong glanced at Bayajin. Originally, this matter involved military secrets and could not be disclosed, but considering the beef jerky, fried rice and water, he nodded.
“It’s definitely not for a stroll.”
