    Newly formed troops often have this characteristic. When the battle is going smoothly, they are brave and fearless, thinking that the enemy is nothing more than that. Once they encounter a tough battle, or when they need to fight hard, they have never seen the baptism of artillery fire.  Having experienced scenes of heavy artillery fire and flying flesh and blood, I have never seen a comrade covered in blood and falling in front of him. His weakness will be exposed immediately.

    The advantage just now was, to a large extent, a surprise to the Soviet army. The situation now is very different. The guns in the hands of the soldiers are still pointing forward, aiming at the Soviet soldiers who are getting closer and closer. However, if you look carefully  Observe that the hands of most of the soldiers who were engaged in positional blocking for the first time were trembling uncontrollably. There was a little panic and fear in their eyes. There was an uneasy atmosphere on the position, silently.  spread.

    Officers at all levels in the Outer Mongolia Field Corps were of course aware of this abnormal situation. Regardless of the danger that they would be hit by the rushing Soviet soldiers at any time, they crouched and shouted back and forth in the trenches, "  Brothers, don't panic. This is not the first time we have fought against Lao Maozi. We have been chasing Lao Maozi soldiers for two days and two nights. They only have so much ability. Don't rush to shoot yet, wait for the order!  Get closer and hit!"

    Not to mention, the shouts of the officers gave these soldiers reassurance. Although the hand holding the gun was still trembling slightly, at least they were not panicking anymore. But this was just the beginning. Commander Hippolyv had already  They were ruthless and carried out a non-stop group charge. Even with the corpses of soldiers, they would overwhelm the positions of the independent divisions blocking them. The Outer Mongolia Field Corps, the three blocking infantry brigades, had never seen a battle formation.  Weaknesses will always be exposed.

    soon.  The charging Soviet death squads rushed to a distance of only 300 meters from the position. Following the orders from commanders at all levels, gunshots like exploding beans suddenly rang out on the position. After the Outer Mongolia Border Guard Army was upgraded to a field corps  , the first thing to change is the troops' weapons and equipment, Yi Shuier's "Somi" submachine guns, each company.  All have machine gun platoons, with eight heavy machine guns and ten mortars.

    Each platoon has a machine gun squad, and four light machine guns are enough to provide sufficient firepower.  Coupled with two light machine guns per squad, the Outer Mongolia Field Corps has an infantry company.  There are forty or fifty light machine guns alone.  The three infantry brigades opened fire together, and the formation was truly astonishing. The dense rain of bullets made the ground fly with sand and rocks, and there were countless bullets.  Rotating at high speed, like a metal wall, it hit the charging Soviet soldiers head-on.

    The bodies of the Soviet soldiers were splashed with blood.  Like sorghum stalks, they fell piece by piece. Gurbansai Khan's blocking battle entered a fever pitch from the beginning. On the battlefield, gunshots roared like a torrential rain, and blood and flesh flew everywhere. The strong smell of blood and  The smell of gunpowder smoke filled the air.

    The Soviet soldiers also took a life-threatening posture. The front row was knocked down, and those behind continued to charge, stepping on the bloody corpses of their companions. However, from a distance of several hundred meters, the soldiers of the Independent Division could already be seen.  The face became an insurmountable death zone composed of countless light and heavy machine gun and submachine gun bullets. Less than twenty minutes after the battle began, more than 10,000 Soviet death squads in the first assault wave fell to the independent division's blocking  There were six to seven thousand people in front of the position.

    Commander Hippolyev, who was commanding from behind, even though his face was livid and the corners of his mouth were twitching unconsciously, he did not blink and sent more than 10,000 death squads from the second assault wave up. The Soviet army's first  The first charge was not completely repulsed, but the second wave of charges followed.

    The Soviet soldiers became red-eyed. The corpses of their comrades in front of the position became their temporary bunkers. The corpses of the Soviet soldiers were piled up one after another. The surviving Soviet soldiers refused to retreat and put their guns on them.  On the corpse of his companion, they were shooting eye to eye with the soldiers of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps from a distance of less than 300 meters.

    The marksmanship of the Soviet soldiers was pretty good. The blocking troops of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps soon suffered casualties. Their companions¡¯ heads were opened by bullets, and their snow-white brains were mixed with red blood and splashed all over themselves. They were still jumping around just now.  A comrade-in-arms turned into a corpse with his head half missing in the blink of an eye. Faced with this situation, soldiers who have never experienced cruel and bloody battles will have two reactions.

    First, the sacrifice of his comrades aroused a strong desire for revenge in his heart. He forgot his fear and only had the thought of killing the enemy and avenging his comrades. After a bloody battle, an ordinary soldier would often transform into a  A warrior as brave as a leopard.

    Another situation is that it completely triggers the fear in his heart. The tragic scene of his comrades dying in battle stimulates the cowardice in his heart. He is afraid that next, he will become one of the countless corpses. His survival instinct will make him refuse to continue.  Fighting, even - will turn into a deserter.

    The vast majority of soldiers of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps blocking troops have withstood the test of the battlefield. The death of their comrades can only inspireThey had greater courage and forgot about fear, leaving only instinctive shooting. Therefore, under the continuous assault of nearly 30,000 people by two waves of Soviet death squads, the position was still in the hands of the independent division troops. If this  If this situation continues and persists for about two hours, the other three brigades will catch up and surpass the Soviet army in strength. Even if the 37th Group Army uses up all their old soldiers, they will not be able to overcome it.  Gurbansai Khan half step.

    However, an unexpected situation still occurred. The blocking position of the third battalion and sixth company of the third brigade, first regiment, and sixth company of the Outer Mongolia Field Corps was in a prominent position on the entire front. It was a small hill with an altitude of less than 100 meters. He had a sophisticated vision and rich combat experience.  When Ren Zhaoquan was building fortifications, he considered that this position was the main support point for the adjacent two wing positions, and firepower could support the positions on the left and right wings. Therefore, he specially reinforced it and built several firepower points.

    According to his idea, two heavy machine guns or four light machine guns were deployed at this fire support point. The fire coverage could control a large area. The commander of the third brigade who accepted the position also took a fancy to it at a glance.  At this place, the third battalion and the sixth company were ordered to defend here, and four heavy machine guns were transferred from other companies to serve as important firepower points. In addition to guarding the company's position, they also had to defend the fifth company and the seventh company on the left and right flanks.  Provide fire support.

    As soon as the battle began, this small highland became the key target of the Soviet army's attack. The Soviet commander was not an idiot. He also saw the importance of this commanding height. If captured, it would be equivalent to the blocking line of the independent division troops.  , tearing a big hole, in this way, it is possible to break through.

    Groups of Soviet death squads, regardless of casualties, swooped up one after another. The corpses covered the hillside under the high ground. The soldiers of the defending Sixth Company were also stained with blood in the trenches, and their hands were weak from fighting. As the Soviet army  On the position of the third company of the unrelenting attack, there were relatively large casualties. The wounded covered in blood and the corpses that had no breathing were carried on stretchers and passed through the trenches and passed in front of the red-eyed soldiers.  , the scene was real and cruel, the comrade who was by his side just now turned into a corpse in the blink of an eye.

    The vast majority of the soldiers gritted their teeth and poured out bullets with all their strength. They had only one thought in their hearts, to avenge their dead comrades. Relying on the human flesh fortifications piled up with corpses, there were about three to four hundred Soviet troops in the distance.  Less than a hundred meters away from the blocking position, they barely managed to stand still. Several Soviet machine guns got a chance to fight back. Bullets rained down on them. Taking advantage of the sixth company's firepower to temporarily suppress them, the Soviet death squads  Rushing up like crazy.

    Finally, the soldiers of the second squad of the sixth company, third platoon, couldn't stand it anymore. A soldier who joined the army in Suiyuan turned pale. Looking at the tall and powerful Soviet soldiers, he howled miserably and dropped his hands.  He turned around and ran away. As soon as he climbed into the trench, he was beaten into a hornet's nest by the dense bullets. His move suddenly shook the confidence of other soldiers in the second squad. The other soldiers also dropped their guns and fled back.  go.

    The squad leader was so anxious that his eyes were burning. He had just stood up and stopped the soldiers who were fleeing. A string of bullets hit his body and shook him a few times. The squad leader fell in the trench, his eyes lifeless, and his whole body was staring at him with reluctance.  In the northern part of Outer Mongolia, under the icy blue sky obscured by gunpowder smoke, a large gap immediately appeared in the second company's position due to the rout of the second squad.

    The Soviet soldiers were also experienced. When they saw this opportunity, they immediately concentrated their forces and rushed towards the breakthrough. The sixth company commander's voice was hoarse from shouting. The troops on the position were already small, and the Soviet  As the casualties increased, troops from other directions could not mobilize troops to strengthen the key defense lines. However, he did not expect that there would be deserters in his company, and it was at this most critical time!

    Looking at the deserters who climbed up the trench and were knocked down by Soviet bullets, while the remaining few were holding their heads and running away gradually, the sixth company commander's face was ashen. He had already raised the submachine gun in his hand, and then put it down feebly.  , they are all our own soldiers. Although they were new soldiers who joined the army when the troops retreated to North China, after all, after training for several months under their own hands, everyone can call out their names, and if they have any emotion at all,  No, that¡¯s bullshit!

    Although they escaped from the battle and were deserters, they should be shot on the spot, but how could they do it? It was their first time to fight such a cruel positional blocking battle. It was reasonable for them to panic. Gritting their teeth, the Sixth Company  The commander roared angrily: "The company headquarters security squad and communications squad, immediately follow me and block the entrance to the second squadron. Keep an eye on them!"

    Dozens of people from the company headquarters rushed to the abandoned position of the second squadron, braving the sharp bullets whizzing by their heads. It was the time when the battlefield situation was most tense. Because the soldiers of one squadron escaped, several other squadrons on the left and right wings were immediately rescued.  , brought huge pressure.

    When the sixth company commander arrived, a Soviet army of about a hundred people had already rushed into the distanceThe position is less than thirty meters away.
