Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Five Chinese Infantry Combat Code
July 12, 9th, the Republic of China.
On this day, the "Brest Counterattack" began!
At 4:30 am on the 12th, all Chinese cannons on the front line roared.
The earth-shaking shells instantly woke up the sleeping earth. Countless shells, with sharp whistling, rose up on the battlefield with sarcastic flames.
〖Chinese counterattack has begun!
July 12 will surely become a heart disease that Tukhachevsky and the Red Army troops he commanded will never get rid of.
The shells blew the Red Army's positions into the sky, and the Red Army, which was suddenly attacked, was soon in the middle of húnluàn.
The shelling will never stop. If the Chinese people do not shoot the last shell out, they will never stop such shelling!
Under such shelling, it was difficult for the Red Army to reorganize the positions in húnluàn.
And at this time, the Chinese people's assault began!
The main force of the 5th, 6th and 7th Divisions of the National Revolutionary Army, which had never been used by Liu Zhaocheng, quickly assaulted the weak points of the enemy's central government!
At 6 o'clock, the Russian Army in Brest was fourth and the 15th Army was broken through! The defense line was all two.
Immediately, Liu Zhaocheng devoted all the main forces of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th divisions to the attack, with only one target: the Fourth Russian Army!
The first to be attacked was the 3rd Brigade commanded by a.a. Chebotalev!
Chebotalev must face the impact directly from his old opponent Rao Guohua's 2nd Division! The only difference is that this time the offense and defense have been replaced.
Powerful firepower supports the infantry's attack!
Article 2 of the "Chinese Infantry Combat Code" formulated by Wang Hengyue, President of the Republic of China: "No matter how small the caliber of the weapon is or how small the number of weapons is, we must always use firepower to support the infantry's attack."
〖Chinese people divided the offensive troops into countless squads, and behind each offensive squad, there is often a machine gun team's firepower support.
The machine gun team's mission is not to require them to eliminate many enemies, but to suppress the enemy's firepower as much as possible so that their offensive team can complete close-range assaults!
Article 6 of the Chinese Infantry Combat Code: "Whoever fires first and can perform the most violent fire-raising attack will win."
Infantry is a trumpet unit trained, commanded and mastered by President Wang Hengyue of the Republic of China!
Now, this ace force has shown strong offensive power in front of the Russians.
They did not shout slogans, nor did they have any "Ula".
Even, except for the constant sound of gunfire, everything in their attack was "quiet". But it was in this terrible "quiet" that they completed the assault again and again.
A large number of Russian positions fell into the hands of the Chinese for no reason, and the failed Russians even didn't know what the Chinese took their positions.
Article 12 of the "Chinese Infantry Combat Code": "The troops must learn to carry out movements quietly and silently!"
a.a. Chebotalev was almost in a collapse. What he faced was a sharp, well-trained unit. It could even be said to be a group of combat-specific robots.
The Red Army's enemies strictly abide by the infantry offensive rules, and constantly attacked small-scale troops, constantly attacking with seemingly small scale, eroding the enemy's positions, and finally forcing the enemy to a dead end.
Under such an attack, the Russians retreated step by step, and there was no room for fighting back.
Advanced infantry offensive tactics are most fully reflected here!
After only more than an hour of attack, most of the positions of the 3rd Brigade had been broken by the Chinese, and the Russian troops on both sides could not provide the most direct and powerful support to the 3rd Brigade under the heavy blow of the Chinese.
At 7 o'clock, Chebotalev's brigade headquarters was directly attacked.
Chebotalev, with a regiment's troops, guarding here with a desperate attempt to get reinforcements from the General Command, but such hope will soon be shattered.
The Chinese troops in the attack obviously meant that they had caught a big fish. However, they did not rush to attack rashly.
They first began to eliminate the enemies around them, and then began to conduct several tentative attacks under the cover of firepower.
The Russians were obviously burning their boats there, and they concentrated all the firepower they could concentrate to block the enemy's attack.
〖Chinese people stopped their attack and began to let the Russian translator shout loudly to the opposite side, telling them that they were surrounded and had no way to escape. All they were waiting for were surrender, otherwise they would be annihilation without mercy.
Article 8 of the "Chinese Infantry Combat Code": "In all offensive battles, psychological factors must be used to create panic among the enemy!"
The Russians had some intention of being sāo-moving, but they quickly calmed down under the severe reprimand of the officers.
Taking advantage of this period, the temporary simple fortifications of the Chinese people were also repaired.
Article 13 of the Chinese Infantry Combat Code: "As long as the troops stay in one place for more than a short pause, they should build fortifications!"
The mortar was also pulled up!
During the Northern Expedition in China, the National Revolutionary Army did not use this weapon too much, but there was no need to keep it too much on the Russian battlefield.
〖Chinese people are in a hurry to prepare for their preparations.
After the full preparation is completed, the shelling begins.
The mortar shells let out a sharp and harsh whistling, exploding among the Russians. The rising flames seemed to be singing the Russians' funeral song.
Then the light and heavy machine guns fired together, accompanied by the whistling of the mortar, suppressing and killing the enemy.
Article 8 of the "Chinese Infantry Combat Code": "All the coordinated offensive and combat of all types of troops must be coordinated carefully in the simplest way!"
〖Zhong〗** team used the simplest, or most direct and most violent way to solve the battle here.
The Russians suffered heavy casualties due to the killing of mortar shells and machine guns.
Two soldiers were blown up high into the air. By the time they fell, one soldier was so bombed that he could not recognize his original appearance, while the other soldier lost one arm and a tui, lying in a pool of blood and wailed miserable wails.
Nothing is more tremendous than the psychological blow brought by the wail of his companions to the Russians on the position!
The Russians' positions were destroyed, and the number of Russians' casualties increased sharply.
Then, with the fire support of the machine gun team, the Chinese infantry re-entered the attack.
The resistance I encountered was no longer as great as before. Some positions were even quiet. Maybe all the Russians on the positions were dead?
However, the Chinese soldiers did not take it lightly. When they approached the fortification, they first threw out a row of grenades. After the "boom" explosion passed, they swept the submachine guns in their hands, and then rushed into the position slowly.
Article 17 of the "Chinese Infantry Combat Code": "You must prove that there is no enemy resistance force on the position before you can choose to completely occupy the position!"
〖Chinese infantrymen, from the first day of joining the army, must strictly remember every point in the infantry offensive rules and implement them meticulously on the battlefield.
On the battlefield, no one can violate this battle code!
Fighting is allowed to fail, but the code is never allowed to be destroyed. Otherwise, waiting for those who destroy the code will be the most severe punishment!
The huge advantage that Chinese soldiers showed in front of the Russians was based on this: they had firmly imprinted the "Chinese Infantry Combat Code" in their own spirits, and completely regarded it as an organic combination part of their body on the battlefield.
And the Russians also deeply understood this.
a.a. Chebotalev knew that the fate of failure could not be reversed. He commanded the few remaining soldiers and carried out the final resistance.
But the reinforcements have not seen any shadows for a long time
Bad news came one after another, the Chinese people's attack was unstoppable, and they would soon appear outside their brigade headquarters.
While ordering the burning of confidential documents, Chebotalev organized all the personnel of the brigade department and distributed them weapons, trying his best to mobilize them to shed the last drop of blood for their cause.
Chebotalev is ready to devote himself to his cause.
This is a staunch Bolshevist who doesn't care about bloodshed or death. He hopes that his subordinates will face all the upcoming challenges as bravely as he does!
He heard the gunshots outside, and they were already ringing here at the brigade headquarters.
Looking at the ashes burning into piles, Chebotalev grabbed his weapon: "Comrades, it's time to sacrifice himself for the great cause. Let's die here together. Long live the Soviet Republic!"
Then, he rushed out with everyone
On July 12, 9th, the commander of the 3rd Brigade of the 4th Army of the Soviet Russian Red Army, A.A. Chebotalev, died on the battlefield.
He also became the first senior Soviet officer to die in the "Brest Counterattack".
Chebotalev died in battle, but the "Brest's counterattack" had just begun. The Chinese would never stop the attack for the death of a Russian brigade commander.
For those Soviet Russian officers and soldiers, their nightmare has just begun.
All their so-called "victory" before was just paving the way for the Chinese people's counterattack. Now, it is finally time for them to taste the Chinese people's counterattack.
Smoke of gunpowder spread everywhere on the battlefield, and the Chinese shouts were everywhere. The Russians were beaten and fled everywhere, and often followed by a large group of Chinese soldiers.
In the Chinese Soldiers' dictionary, there are only two words now: Attack!
