Chapter 189 The Tumen River Offensive(3/3)
Many basic principles in thought.
Compared with the Brusilov Offensive, the Northeastern Army first strengthened the training of penetration tactics and improved equipment on the Western Front battlefield. The entire army reduced barrel artillery equipment on a large scale, and even the number of heavy machine guns was reduced.
Each squad is equipped with a Madsen light machine gun and a Popnin submachine gun. Each row is equipped with a 60mm mortar. Each company is equipped with the M1910 newly improved 80mm mortar. The same is used at the battalion level.
Mortar replacement barrel artillery.
In the main assault force, each squad is usually expanded to 20 people, equipped with three Popnin submachine guns, grenade launchers, or grenade launchers, plus a Madsen light machine gun, which improves the unit's penetration capabilities.
Greatly enhanced.
In the additional artillery battalions allocated to each regiment, the barrel artillery has also been replaced with the m1908 75mm light field gun. The third artillery brigade has been split up and organized into various units. Only the sixth artillery regiment retains 32...
The 105mm Krupp light howitzer and some 9cm bronze mortars and cannons are under the direct control of the military headquarters.
Although Song Biao could not go to the Eastern Front battlefield in person to boost morale, First Class Chamberlain Jiang Zuobin successfully completed this task. After the outbreak of the Western Front Campaign, at 6:10 a.m. on April 6, 1911, Jiang Yanxing commanded the Eastern Front Group Army
Officially launched a multi-point offensive against the Japanese and Korean troops.
Unlike the Northeast Army, which has made substantial progress in military theory, equipment and tactical training in the past six years, the Japanese Army has not made any progress in military theory as it did during the Russo-Japanese War six years ago.
During the War of 1911, the Japanese army remained the same as during the Russo-Japanese War.
The same deployment was adopted, and its obvious common feature is to deploy the troops along the defense line, retaining a large number of reserve forces at the headquarters to wait for the enemy's main offensive to be exposed. The third army is the reserve of the first army, the second army, and each division.
There is a reserve infantry brigade, and the headquarters also has a general reserve division and brigade.
This kind of preemptive combat deployment is a typical static defense. It appeared in the Napoleonic era, was carried forward by Germany during the Franco-Prussian War, and was torn apart by the German army using Hutier tactics during World War I. It was gradually eliminated after World War I, and France
This tradition continued during World War II. As a result, the entire defense line was defeated by the German army before the main force could react, and the country was destroyed before all the war power could be unleashed.
In modern warfare, the progress of theory and the progress of equipment are synchronized. New equipment produces new theories, and new theories produce new equipment. This is a mutually reinforcing process, and stagnant development will be eliminated.!~!
