Chapter 458: Under villarrica

"Major Barros doesn't seem to be competent at all!"
"Yes, the general should promote a dedicated and brave officer to the post of battalion commander of the Sixth Battalion."
A group of soldiers were so tired that they made fun of Major Barros's scandal, and in a laugh, the joyous and relaxed atmosphere was destroyed by bad news.
"" The general ordered that several units of the four, six, artillery and cavalry companies would launch a comprehensive attack on the Villarrica position before 8 pm today! Our company is also in the offensive sequence. ""
"What? Didn't the general just order us to trim it in place? Why changed the order suddenly?"
"It was the order that General Rodriguez gave to the general directly, and the general did not dare to disobey General Rodriguez's order!"
"What a terrible news!"
A group of soldiers who had just talked casually changed their faces after hearing the attack order. Many people mixed with the scolding of accents from all over their mouths, venting the pre-war tension and fear with loud curses.
At 7.45 pm in the evening, each of the Brazilian troops that received the offensive order, reluctantly left the camp, upon the urging of one middle-level officer. Set off in the direction of Villarrica.
People screamed and kept clamoring. When the Brazilian army reached the frontier of Villarrica, they were greeted by heavy rifle bullets and artillery shells.
"No! The camp commander was hit!"
A Brazilian soldier yelled loudly, and the other soldiers saw an officer standing behind the offensive queue, unlucky to be hit directly by a shell.
"It's over, the battalion commander must be dead."
"Yes, I'm sure I can't survive being hit directly by a shell."
Seeing the battalion commander killed by shells, several soldiers hiding behind the bushes were afraid and thankful.
"Asshole! Continue offensive! Bancroft, Gerrit, and Barsaromu, the three of you rush out first! Notify us when we find a covert attack!"
The battalion commander died, and another veteran captain quickly took over the command of his army, and then ordered several stagnant soldiers!
"Asshole! Why are we again? Why don't you give the task to someone else? Are you the acting battalion commander!"
"Also said we are assholes! You are so brave, why don't you rush up yourself!
What does it mean! You bastard! What qualifications do you have to be the captain? "
The three Bancrofts cursed in a low voice, and at the same time they obeyed the orders of the acting battalion commander and proceeded carefully.
"Griet, Barsaromu, you see, there is an enemy's dead corner in front of us. There is a big tree there. It is safer for us to hide under the big tree!"
Bancroft cat whispered.
"But the command of the agent battalion was to approach the enemy's frontier position. The position of the big tree was offset by nearly 70 meters from our offensive route. Although we were safe under the tree, we also violated the command of the agent battalion. . "
"His order is to let us die! If you want to lie in the church's graveyard, just follow that bastard's order!"
"No, I don't want to die! The bronze we have hidden in the city of Mauricio hasn't been taken out! It's not worth the death now!"
"Yes, we can't give up for nothing! Let the bastard's order go to hell! Save your life first, and wait until the end of this battle to consider!"
Several soldiers discussed in a low voice, and quickly reached an agreement on avoiding the danger of the battlefield. Then, under the cover of the night, the three men slowly deviated from the crossfire area in the middle of the battlefield and turned toward the position of a tree on the other side of the battlefield.
On the battlefield, bullets and artillery shells shuttled constantly. The sound of fierce cannonball explosions rang far or near in the surrounding area, and the light generated by the explosion divided the fighting area into a slaughterhouse where night and day were intertwined.
The life of an individual soldier is clearly fragile and insignificant throughout the battlefield. Rows after rows of Brazilian soldiers deterred by the gendarmerie muzzle, they were nervous and rushed to the front, and then fell down in rows under fierce fire.
The fighting continued until 8.46 pm. Within the attack range of the fronts of Villarrica, the bodies of Brazilian soldiers were piled up layer after layer. The time was just over half an hour. The Brazilian army continued to attack. During that time, more than 500 troops were killed and wounded.
When plundering ordinary people in Paraguay, there was no scruples, and when General Rodriguez's offensive order was issued again, Major General Turturio had to use all the main forces of the Ninth Division for his political prospects and put into consumption A huge offensive battle.
The battle was anxious. With the strength of the military, the Brazilian army, after paying more than 500 casualties, was still supporting the attack on the Mbokayadi position, and in the frontier combat zone, experienced the new Han rifle, heavy After the powerful lethality of machine guns and other weapons, ordinary Brazilian soldiers did not have the courage to continue the attack. Some Brazilian soldiers who were frightened by the death of their own soldiers were frightened, leaving the gendarmerie and the supervision team to threaten them. But he is no longer willing to take a step forward.
The fourth battalion is moving forward! go ahead! go ahead--"
A Brazilian middle-level officer raised his pistol and issued several orders in succession, but he could not see any movement from the soldiers behind him. All the soldiers were hesitating. No one was willing to invest in a futile attack and lost his life.
The battlefield atmosphere freezes instantly! Seeing that all the soldiers did not obey their orders, the Brazilian officer scolded: "What are you guys doing? You haven't heard my order? Why don't you rush up!"
"The enemy's heavy machine gun fire is too fierce. Without artillery suppression, we can't rush at all!"
"Excusements! All excuses for cowardice. The sanitary soldiers of the Fourth Regiment and the 3rd Battalion dare to take a gun to attack! The sanitary soldiers are not afraid! What are you afraid of?"
"The four regiments and three battalions have artillery support. We don't."
A soldier murmured.
"Enough! You cowards! Don't make any excuses for your weakness! Attack now!"
The Brazilian officer's fire surged, threatening loudly.
"Sir, someone sneaks in!"
In the looming flare, several blurred figures suddenly appeared in the sight of Brazilian soldiers.
"An enemy attack, covert!"
Hear reminders from your soldiers. The officer, who was still full of anger, seemed to instantly transform into a person, with his decisive limbs on the ground and lying on the ground.
"Lieutenant Olger in the sixth regiment."
Closer, a soldier spoke out.
"Where is your commander?"
"I'm here!" The Brazilian officer stood up quickly from the ground, his face a little awkward.
"General Genturio has ordered the Battalion to return to the camp for two hours for repair, and Major Engrit's troops will take over your offensive mission."
"Okay, when Major Engrit's troops arrive, I will lead the troops back to the camp for repair." ...
"According to the fighting situation of the forward positions, the Brazilian army put its main attack in the small town of Mbokayadi. Roughly, the enemy has invested about 7,000 troops in the direction of Mbokayadi."
At Villarrica Station, Zhang Wenlian, the head of the first mixed brigade regiment, stood in the temporary headquarters and said: "Our army has nearly 2,000 defensive forces in the direction of Mbokayadi. In comparison of the strength of the frontal defensive positions, the Brazilian army The absolute advantage in terms of quantity. "
"The Brazilian army is likely to ignore Tevequari's direction and focus only on the front."
75-mm artillery battalion battalion chief Zhou Liying thought: "If this is possible, then the advance troops would split the two roads and deploy the fifth battalion and engineering battalion in the direction of Tevequari, which would be meaningless."
"According to the Brazilian army's attack intensity speculation, the opposite Brazilian army commander should be under pressure from the commanding authority of the upper level, so it is necessary to assemble the main forces in a hurry and launch a large-scale attack at night."
"The Brazilians are racing against us. They want to use their strength to regain control of Villarrica station from us."
Li Jitai, commander of the brigade reconnaissance battalion, agreed: "The Brazilian army has formed an absolute military advantage over our army in the direction of Mbo Cayadi. If our current force is used to defend the Mbocadia position, there is a high probability Able to repel the enemy's offensive, but may also lose more than 500 troops.
Therefore, I think that in the case of the idle force in Tevequari, it is better to redeploy a part of the force to support Mbokayadi, and then cooperate with the relatively abundant force to cover the night and launch an attack against the enemy in the face. Counterattack, disrupted the Brazilian army's offensive deployment, and strived for more time for the arrival of follow-up reinforcements. "
"The total number of Brazil's leading offensive forces is about 10,000. At present, the number of enemy forces in the front line of our army is about 7,000. Based on the marching speed of the Brazilian army, if they move to the direction of Tevequari, compare them from the flanks. It took about three hours for Arica to carry out the attack. Three hours was enough for the Brazilian army to complete the military change of changing the main offensive direction. However, within three hours, it was difficult for our army to accurately grasp the change in the offensive direction of the Brazilian army. "
Zhang Wenlian still insisted on his own claim: "The purpose of our army is to ensure the safety of Villarrica Station. The force in the direction of Tevequari cannot be easily transferred. However, purely passive defense is not in line with our army's combat policy. .
According to the suggestions made by Commander Zhou and Chief Li just now, use night to cover, while the Brazilian army ’s offensive is stopped, on the one hand, send troops to launch counterattacks against the frontier enemy forces in order to disrupt the enemy ’s combat plan. On the other hand, several capable assault units were dispatched to penetrate the enemy's defense line and investigate the specific position of the Brazilian artillery to create favorable conditions for our artillery cluster to eliminate enemy artillery. "
Zhang Wenlian's counterattack plan combines the suggestions made by several major commanders. Although the overall strategic aspect is more conservative, the specific tactical counterattack still has the offensive nature that is common in the Han army.
The counter-attack plan formulated according to the changes in the battlefield situation was unanimously approved by several major officers. Three hours later, at 11:08 in the evening, after a round of artillery fire, the direction of Mbokayadi's forward position was about 600 soldiers. Gushing from several forward positions, the soldiers pointed directly at the Brazilian army on the other side of the front.
Artillery rages and machine guns fire out ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Coupled with the firepower advantage of the new rifle, the Brazilian soldiers who were originally in a state of high tension in the event of a sudden blow, even if they have absolute military strength, Under fear, he quickly collapsed and ran away.
The counterattack was defeated, and more than 600 soldiers took advantage of the night to chase after more than 7,000 Brazilian soldiers. Until 12.17 midnight, the counterattack force ’s offensive momentum declined, and when it took the initiative to break away from contact with the Brazilian army Only the Brazilian army was able to hold its ground.
At 7:10 a.m. the next day, after experiencing the shock of last night, the Brazilian army just took a sigh of relief, and was again struck by the precision of the Han artillery cluster. The artillery attack lasted about 21 minutes, 21 Minutes later, most of the 24 medium artillery pieces of the entire artillery regiment of the Brazilian army under the command of Geturio were destroyed, leaving only seven artillery pieces that had not been hit by the artillery.
The artillery regiment supporting the firepower unit suffered a heavy blow, and the 9th Division of Brazil lost its firepower to stop the artillery fire of the Han defenders. Therefore, during the period from 8 am to 2 pm on September 16, the Brazilian army strongly supported The four offensives launched were all defeated by the Han Dynasty's defenders. …………
