Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

Thinking of this, Lao Jiang suddenly changed the subject: "How is the situation in North China?"

'According to the telegram we received earlier, the newly appointed commander of the North China Front Army has formulated a cage and siege policy, and is constantly clearing and suppressing the Eighth Route Army's development in North China. It seems to have achieved certain results.

However, the Eighth Route Army seemed to be aware of this too. Recently, their troops in North China have been mobilized more frequently, and it seems that they intend to fight the Japanese army in North China.Come to think of it, they won't sit still. '

As Lao Jiang's attendant, he also knows some of the battle situations submitted every day.Even in many cases, Lao Jiang would use him as a staff officer, analyzing and discussing the situation of the War of Resistance with himself.

Lao Jiang has always felt that North China is too quiet, and the quietness makes him feel uncomfortable.After all, the Japanese army assembled heavy troops and continuously invaded and occupied the Kuomintang-controlled areas under his control, which made Lao Jiang feel very uncomfortable.

In contrast, the Eighth Route Army is constantly encroaching on the territory that the little devil has seized.One is to continuously shrink the control area, and the other is to continuously expand the control area. It is natural for Lao Jiang to be worried.

Now that the Eighth Route Army and the North China Japanese Army seemed to be preparing to go to war again, Lao Jiang also felt a little comforted.As long as there is a war, I believe that whether it is the Eighth Route Army or the Japanese army, it is necessary to pay some price and casualties.

After pondering for a while, Lao Jiang said: "Song Xilian, don't worry about the telegram. This time, I hope he can bring out the morale of our Central Army. As long as he can encircle and wipe out the No.16 division, I will reward him generously after the war."

When he said such a thing, Lao Jiang undoubtedly felt that the Eighth Route Army should not be allowed to show off.Even if he knows that after this order is issued, the 71st Army will inevitably suffer huge casualties after the war.But if you don't want to bear children, you can't set yourself up with wolves! (To be continued.)

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Regarding Lao Jiang's plan, He Zhengdao, who was on the front line at the moment, was naturally not in the mood to pay too much attention.Even if old Jiang really transferred the third division and joined the battle to encircle and wipe out the No. 16 division, He Zhengdao might not completely obey his orders.

Most importantly, the current position of the third division is undoubtedly a bit far from the combat area. He Zhengdao believes that everyone understands the truth that "a distant water can't save a nearby fire", and if he transfers the third division to participate, who would not understand the profound meaning?

Fortunately, Lao Jiang still cares about the face of the party and the country, and he doesn't want the new 67th Army led by He Zhengdao to enjoy the military exploits alone.Only in this way, the 71st Army needs to be prepared to be hit hard.After all, the little devil is a real tough guy!

Fortunately, He Zhengdao knew very well how much rice there was in the pot.Even though he currently has a lot of troops in his hands, he doesn't want to expose too much.After all, the last time he encircled and wiped out the 67th Division, his [-]th Army suffered over [-] casualties!

If the national government knew that his troops did not suffer such a large number of casualties, and if they quarreled at that time, there would probably be a lot of trouble.For this reason, some soldiers who were unsuitable for combat and injured were transferred from the battlefield ahead of schedule.

Looking at the village to the east where the 51st Army was in charge, there were already intense gunfire.It didn't take long before the sound of gunfire stopped.This also means that the round of attack by the 51st Army still ended in failure.

He Zhengdao was also prepared for such a failure.If the 51st Army can really break through the blocking position of the Japanese army in one battle, then it will be called a ghost!So, failure seems to be a very normal thing.

Facing Li Xiangdong who was standing beside him, He Zhengdao said calmly: "Our principle of fighting tonight is to hunt down the living forces of the Japanese army. We don't need troops to launch an attack, but we have to be careful of the little devil's artillery counterattack.

The reconnaissance team had previously sent a telegram that most of the Japanese mountain artillery positions covering our position had been destroyed by the 51st Army.Thinking about this time, they didn't dare to open fire easily.

However, just in case, we will order our mountain artillery battalion to prepare for shelling later.Once the little devil artillery fires again, order our artillery to resolutely counterattack.As for the heavy artillery battalion, there is no order to open fire at will.

This time, I will deploy snipers from the reconnaissance brigade here, as well as soldiers with accurate marksmanship.Therefore, tonight's battle is a sniper's battlefield.Warn our soldiers to pay attention to changing positions at any time when shooting. "

'Yes, please rest assured, the commander, they are all experienced veterans, I think they still understand this truth. '

Listening to Li Xiangdong's answer, He Zhengdao continued: "When the 51st Army attacked earlier, they suffered from the little devil's flares. When the snipers start to attack, the flares must be controlled by our side.

When the troops launched a sniper attack, the signal soldiers paid attention to follow up.The flares should not only hit one place, but change their positions frequently, exposing the position of the blocking forces that the little devils have placed in front of us, and then let the sniper team carry out long-distance sniping. "

After some orders were conveyed, Li Xiangdong also began to order the temporary sniper team to move to the Japanese blocking position in the form of small groups.However, most of these snipers are located 300 meters away.

At this moment, there are also many officers and soldiers stationed on the little devil's blocking position to take charge of vigilance.Even according to the information provided by the reconnaissance team, the No. 16 Division of the Japanese Army has many more troops stationed in the south than in the east and west!

This also means that the little devil is actually very worried about the attack of He Zhengdao's department.After all, after a few days of fighting, they have already seen the marksmanship of the New 67th Army, which seems to be much better than them.If you don't deploy more troops, you are afraid of problems!

In order to attract the little devils to the blocking position, in cooperation with the attacking mortar units, they also used mortars to launch shelling.Listening to the shelling sound of 'tom tom tom', the little devils on the ground were actually startled.

Because their previous attention was focused on the blocking position in the east.Unexpectedly, the position they defended was attacked so quickly.All of a sudden, many little devils on the battlefield ran to hide.

It was precisely at this time that the Japanese army who was running also heard gunshots from the front of the position.There are also little devils who fall to the ground and get up from time to time during the running process.This made the little devil who was planning to avoid the gun even more frightened.

'idiot!what happened?Has the enemy reached our forward positions? '

The grassroots officers of the Japanese army who saw this scene also felt a little incredible.After all, during shelling, under normal circumstances, no shots will be fired.Most importantly, the fire at the front of their position was not touched by existing people!

The gunshots that rang out together with the gunfire really made the little devil hesitate.They don't quite know whether to enter the artillery hole to avoid the artillery fire at this time, or stay in the position and prepare to fight back?

While hesitating, the shells that fell from time to time began to kill and wound the little devils defending the position.It's not good to go, it's not good to not go. This kind of awkward battle really made the commander of the Japanese army feel a little at a loss.

On the other hand, the experienced Japanese commanders at the grassroots level saw that the enemy was not attacking in front of the position, but the bullets must have been fired from the front of the position.This means that the shooters stay out of their range.

Wanting to understand this, many officers shouted: "Run close to the trenches and avoid the artillery fire first. The enemy is beyond our range and will not attack for the time being. Be careful when running and don't show your head at random. The enemy's marksmanship is very good. sharp!"

And the Japanese army captain at the position headquarters immediately said after hearing the officer's report: "Baga, it seems that the one who attacked our side should be the Eighth Route Army responsible for blocking us. Damn it, how could they attack our side!"

If given a choice, none of the officers and soldiers of the No.16 Division would want to fight against the Eighth Route Army.After repeated battles, they already knew that the strength of the Eighth Route Army was no weaker than them.

It can even be said that the fighting power displayed by the Eighth Route Army here is stronger than them in some aspects.With such an opponent on the table, how can the Japanese infantry captain be happy, and it is normal to be worried.

Hearing that it was the Eighth Route Army that attacked the blocking position, many officers were also a little worried.Seeing the artillery fire still resounding on the battlefield, an officer said: "Captain, we need artillery support from the division. Otherwise, the casualties on the battlefield will be huge!"

'Hey, take me to the division headquarters, I need the division to provide artillery guidance.If possible, I hope the division can use heavy artillery.Judging from the sound and range of these cannons, the enemy probably used mountain cannons for shelling. '

In fact, those with a relatively long range are nothing more than large-caliber mortars.How could He Zhengdao take out the real mountain artillery unit and heavy artillery unit so quickly?

In terms of strategy against the enemy, He Zhengdao had the same idea as Xu Youchang, that is to destroy the Japanese artillery as much as possible.As long as the little devil's artillery can be destroyed, it will be easier for them to attack next.

Attacking against the little devil's shells will cause great casualties and costs.Regarding this situation, He Zhengdao, like Xu Youchang, did not want such a thing to happen.Therefore, it is necessary to lure out the artillery of the Japanese army.

After receiving a telegram from the front requesting artillery cooperation, he also made a judgment that the troops attacking the south might be the Eighth Route Army.Keisuke Fujie, who had also seen the "Kyokan" pile before, felt that this was an opportunity.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Add another infantry brigade to the southern position, and order the mountain artillery units to counterattack and destroy their artillery positions. If encountering their artillery counterattack, order the heavy artillery wing to counterattack as quickly as possible.

Damn it, they did such an unforgivable thing to our broken warriors, this time no matter what, they can't make them feel better.After dawn tomorrow, let our air force focus on attacking the Eighth Route Army in the south. "

'Hi!General! '

Although Jingguan made many little devils feel fear, but for Keisuke Fujie, the head of the division, how could he not know that this was the Eighth Route Army's revenge.But as the head of the division, he must ignore this fear and order the troops to take revenge.

It is clear that the Japanese artillery counterattacked very quickly, and He Zhengdao did not give the artillery much time to attack.A few minutes later, the artillery fire began to become sparse in the originally dense mortar positions, and some mortars had already begun to shift positions.

The shift of the position does not mean that these mortars will withdraw from the battle. On the contrary, they will fire a few shots at a different place.This kind of artillery guerrilla warfare is already familiar to the artillerymen of the reconnaissance brigade!

It didn't take long for the Japanese army's counter artillery fire to start.Looking at the scattered mountain artillery counterattacking, He Zhengdao took a look and said: "From the position of the artillery fire, it should be the artillery position that counterattacked the 51st Army earlier. It's not right to use this artillery to counterattack!"

'A little indeed!According to the information provided by the reconnaissance team, the little devil has set up three mountain artillery positions on the outskirts of the town.Two of them are responsible for the north and west.The one relatively close to the south should be the Little Devil's Heavy Artillery Squadron. '

Li Xiangdong, who had read the intelligence materials, also felt that such a counterattack did not seem to be the style of a little devil.After expressing his doubts, He Zhengdao also smiled and said: "Order the mountain cannon battalion to use four mountain cannons to fight back.

In addition, each mountain cannon shoots up to five shells, and the shelling ends immediately.If my prediction is correct, the little devil wants to use these mountain cannons to lure out the location of our mountain cannon battalion, and finally use heavy artillery to deal a fatal blow! "

Sometimes in war, the commanders of both sides also need to fight wits and courage in arranging troops.Even if He Zhengdao knew clearly, if all the mountain cannon battalions launched a counterattack, the little devil's counterattack mountain cannons would definitely be destroyed.

But in this way, the artillery position where their mountain artillery battalion was located was exposed.And the real trump card of the little devils is their heavy artillery unit.How could He Zhengdao easily expose all the positions of his own artillery without the heavy artillery coming out? (To be continued.)

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The sound of guns from the south also surprised the 51st Army, which was preparing for the next round of attack.Although they knew that the troops responsible for attacking the Japanese army in the south were the 67th Army led by He Zhengdao.

But from Xu Youchang's point of view, after going through the battle of encircling and suppressing the 67th Division of the Japanese Army in Huaibin, and stopping the little devil for so long, it stands to reason that the New [-]th Army at this time does not have much combat effectiveness.
