Li Mingding and Lu Yinglin thought for a long time but could not think of a reason in the end.
It wasn't that they hadn't thought of the tactic of using Pingyuan Military to surround the reinforcements.
But thinking about it, he still felt that it was impossible. If you want to surround the reinforcements, you have to make your feint look more realistic!
You've been firing for more than an hour, but the infantry hasn't attacked yet. What's the meaning of this?
Therefore, they felt that the Pingyuan Army had other thoughts. Now, they could only wait and see.
"Cheng Gang, how long have we been firing?”
Han Ling put down his binoculars again.
"Marshal, it's been an hour and twenty minutes!”
"One hour and twenty minutes? He ordered the Heavy Artillery Regiment to stop firing, and the mortars and grenade launchers took turns firing.
The Field Artillery Battalion began to fire, and at the same time, they had one regiment send two companies to launch a probing attack on them! He told them that they had to fight steadily and not be anxious!”
The artillery battalions of the various regiments did not fire during the previous bombardment.
Mortars, on the other hand, were fired for a while and stopped for a while.
The Heavy Artillery Regiment's firing speed was not fast either.
It was to prevent the cannon barrel from heating up so quickly that it could not fire.
What Han Ling wanted was to give the enemy the feeling that he was feigning an attack.
As for the purpose after that! He would know next.
Following Han Ling's order, the Heavy Artillery Regiment immediately stopped firing.
The artillery battalions of several regiments began to speak.
Two companies of soldiers from the First Regiment began to slowly launch probing attacks with their rifles.
The heavy machine guns below were firing bullets continuously to cover the probing attacks of the ground troops.
"Company commander! The Pingyuan Army has sent troops to attack!"
At the 1st Regiment and 1st Battalion's position, a soldier who was lucky enough to survive poked his head out and saw the soldiers below attacking them. He immediately shouted.
"I know! Quickly inform the camp leader that the Pingyuan Army has launched an attack.”
"Yes, sir!"
When the Pingyuan Army launched their attack, this news immediately reached Wang Ming's ears.
"The Pingyuan Army has begun to attack? He ordered the 2nd Battalion to send two companies of soldiers to reinforce the 1st Battalion.
Also, tell the 1st Battalion Commander that once we beat off the Pingyuan Army's charge, I'll immediately agree to let their battalion rest. But this wave of attacks must be done well!”
Wang Ming said to the staff officer.
"Yes, sir!"
"What should have come has come! This damned Pingyuan Army!"
Wang Ming said hatefully after walking around the command center twice.
No matter what Wang Ming said, two companies of Pingyuan Army soldiers were currently attacking their position.
Continuous gunshots began to resound through the mountainside and the mountains.
The soldiers of the two companies calmly attacked them.
There was no panic in their eyes.
The grenade launchers in each squad were also constantly firing grenades.
If the grenade thrower ran out of grenades, someone would naturally hand over their own grenades.
Grenades exploded in the Jinsui Army camp.
"Commander! The enemy's resistance was very fierce. It seemed that their reinforcements had arrived!”
Han Ling was observing the situation with his binoculars.
Liu Kelong stood in front of Han Ling and said emotionlessly.
"I saw it! Their firepower suddenly increased. From the sound of the increased gunfire, the reinforcements should be around two companies.
Have our scouting balloons lock onto their fire pillars. The Heavy Artillery Regiment is ready at any time and await my orders!”
"Yes, sir! Commander!"
Liu Kelong left after saying that.
Han Ling didn't pay attention to Liu Kelong. Instead, he looked up and muttered to himself,""It seems that the commander of the Jinsui Army is really calm! They only sent two companies of soldiers. However, it's just nice. Let me see how many companies you have!”
After Han Ling gave the order, he continued to observe the situation above and did not fire immediately.
As for the two companies of the First Regiment, they stopped advancing after reaching a certain position.
They hid behind the cover and started shooting at the Jinsui Army.
There were many gunshots coming and going, but the Pingyuan Army refused to advance.
This made the Jinsui Army feel helpless and fearful.
This was because the Pingyuan Army's marksmanship and grenade launcher's accuracy were too high.
Most of the time, if you showed your head a little too much, it would be a headshot.
Most of the time, you wouldn't even know where your enemy was when you died.
"Regiment Commander, the soldiers of the Pingyuan Army are too powerful. Many of our brothers died without knowing where the enemy was.
Their cannons were also very accurate, and we were almost suffocated.
Many cannons seemed to have eyes and flew directly into our trenches.
Our brothers can't even hide!"
At this moment, the first battalion commander came to Wang Ming's command post again.
However, compared to last time, the face of the first battalion commander was covered in blood. It was obvious that he had just come down from the battlefield.
"How many people are left in your battalion and the 2nd Battalion?”
Wang Ming asked after silently lighting a cigarette.
"We have less than three hundred people in the entire battalion. The two companies of the 2nd Battalion had almost lost more than half of their men!”
the battalion commander said in a hurry, looking at Wang Ming with pleading eyes.
Wang Ming didn't say anything. After taking two deep puffs of his cigarette, he slowly said,""Order the 2nd Battalion to press forward as well. The other three battalions transferred a company to the second battalion.
Your battalion can withdraw and rest!"
"Thank you, regiment commander!"
The first battalion commander replied and rushed out with a happy face.
Wang Ming waited until the first battalion commander had left before slowly saying,"Send a message to Master! Requesting reinforcements, we have lost more than half of our combat troops!”
"Yes, sir!"
Wang Ming was right.
Their regiment only had three infantry battalions.
Each battalion had around eight hundred people.
Each company had more than two hundred people.
There were less than 300 people left in the 1st Battalion, and it was almost the strength of a company.
The second battalion had three companies, and the two companies at the front line had almost lost more than half.
In other words, they had already lost an entire battalion.
If they lost one or two more companies, wouldn't they lose more than half of their combat strength?
