Rise From Eight Hundred
Chapter 651 Must be cautious
It is not as easy to withdraw from the battlefield as it is for the attacking Japanese army.
The Japanese army was of course also on guard against the Chinese army, although they knew that the Chinese army had few troops and did not have enough strength to rush down the high ground to cause casualties to the retreating army.
But, what if!
Didn't the Chinese come at night and give a fatal blow to the artillery position behind the army?
The furious Kunisaki would not make such a low-level mistake, so he also left scouts on the nearby mountains, not only to ensure safety, but also to observe the next move of the Chinese, and to prepare for tactical planning in advance for re-entering the battlefield after regaining fire support.
For this small group of Japanese troops hidden in the mountains and forests, Tang Dao did not spend the effort to find them this time.
After continuous marching and fighting, his soldiers were too tired and they needed enough rest.
Except for the garrison on the No. 3 high ground, there were only two infantry companies stationed on the other two high grounds. All other soldiers retreated three kilometers and entered a long and narrow valley for repair.
This was to prevent the Japanese infantry from making a comeback, and also to avoid being bombed by Japanese naval fighter planes and reduce unnecessary losses. .
Sure enough, within two hours of the Kunisaki Detachment's retreat, a group of bombers appeared in the sky.
Upon learning that the Kunisaki Detachment had suffered a bloody defeat in front of several small hilltop positions, Yanagawa Heisuke was furious and sent a telegram directly to His Royal Highness, a prince who had just taken over as the commander of the Songhu Expeditionary Force, requesting air support.
The Japanese Army's fighter planes were basically still on Taiwan Island at this moment, so the so-called air support could only be sought from the Navy.
The number one culprit of the Nanjing Massacre may have ordinary military talent, but he was in a high position and was a radical in Japan. Both the Japanese Navy and the Army had to give him face. His orders were certainly not comparable to those of Army generals like Matsui Iwane.
In addition, the Third Fleet destroyed two fighter planes again yesterday, and they hated this mountain position. At that moment, they sent out 36 fighter planes in a mighty force, and the number of fighter planes dispatched was the highest in the half month after the Battle of Songhu.
The intelligence stations along the Songhu-Nanjing line frequently transmitted radio waves, and the city of Jinling was even more panic-stricken, thinking that this huge fleet of aircraft taking off from the sea was coming to bomb Jinling.
In fact, apart from the big city of Jinling, there was no other target that was worthy of the Japanese army to dispatch such a large fleet.
But everyone was wrong, this huge fleet actually rushed towards the mountainous area fiercely.
Because they knew that the Kunisaki Detachment had evacuated, the 36 fighter planes had no scruples, opened the bomb bay at an altitude of 1,200 meters, and dropped nearly 100 large and small aerial bombs.
Moreover, this time the Japanese naval pilots learned to be smart, knowing that there were trenches and tunnels on the high ground, and the damage was limited. Their main bombing target this time was the mountains and forests around the high ground.
In this way, the Chinese reserve troops and various auxiliary personnel can be wiped out.
There are fortifications and trenches on the blocking position, and they can't be built in the rear! The Japanese logic is actually correct.
The mountainous area with a radius of one square kilometer was bombed into a sea of fire.
If Tang Dao allowed the troops to stay for another hour, I am afraid that the losses suffered would not be less than yesterday's day of fighting.
Fortunately, the main force hid in the valley far away from the position. Except for a few people who were injured by the broken stones loosened by the huge shock from the explosion more than two kilometers away, there were basically no other losses.
The two infantry companies on the high ground did not have to worry about the attack of the Japanese infantry, and did not leave any observation posts. Before the arrival of the Japanese fighter planes, they all hid in the tunnels.
After a round of hell-level bombing, the officers and soldiers in the tunnels were only scared half to death and turned them all into gray groundhogs.
In addition, the large amount of aviation kerosene and bombs consumed by the Japanese Navy did not play any other role.
It was not until night that the two light infantry companies quietly withdrew from the battlefield after receiving Tang Dao's telegram, and continued to evacuate deep into the mountains of southern Anhui, following the traces of the main force.
The Laoshushan blocking battle was completely over.
The main position plus the night attack battle, a total of only one day and one night of fighting, blocked the fierce Kunisaki Detachment and the 1st Brigade of the Jing'an Army around Guangde City for four days.
It was not until the arrival of the artillery battalion of the 36th Infantry Brigade and the baggage team of the 18th Division that Kunisaki sent the vanguard of an infantry battalion to Laoshushan again.
The commander in charge of leading this infantry battalion was none other than Colonel Takeuchi Yunshan, who had been beaten up for commanding the 1st Brigade of the Jing'an Army and his own infantry battalion on the No. 3 high ground.
Although he hugged Major General Kunisaki, who was bleeding, in a very servile manner in the early morning of that day, his pounding heart still betrayed his excitement.
Anyway, Kunisaki, who was extremely sensitive to emotions at the time, would never think that this LSP had any feelings for his buttocks. It was probably more that the position under his buttocks had some expectations.
Therefore, Colonel Takeuchi Yunshan naturally became the spearhead of the entire army with an infantry battalion.
Of course, I, a major general, can't chop off your head, but the Chinese dream of it. Major General Kunisaki's method of killing people with borrowed knives is very skillful.
But for Takeuchi Yunshan, who is already over 40 years old, he is not a master that can be controlled at will by a major general.
A few high grounds that a detachment can't take down, you let me take an infantry battalion to go? Do you think I'm stupid?
Arriving near a quiet highland, the Japanese colonel, who had been beaten in the face by the Chinese army, had no intention of probing the attack at all. Instead, he and his subordinate captain each took a telescope and looked at the hilltop hundreds of meters away. Take a sharp look.
It seems that as long as he dares to look, the devil of the Chinese army will be exposed.
As a result, a whole morning passed in the "caution" of His Excellency Colonel Takeuchi Unzan.
It wasn't until Kunizaki couldn't hold himself back any longer and was about to lead his army to the position that the Japanese infantry brigade had dug all morning, that Takeuchi Yunshan sent two infantry detachments to 'deliver food'.
The strange smell in Highland No. 3 was so strong that even after several days, the mountain wind did not blow it away.
The two teams subconsciously chose Highland 1 and Highland 2.
At that moment, no one knew whether the thirty Japanese soldiers were greeting Takeuchi Yunshan's 18th generation maternal line or Kunizaki Zheng. However, they climbed the hillside at an altitude of two to three hundred meters for a full half an hour.
It was really climbing, starting from a position more than 400 meters away from the top of the mountain.
From a distance, it looks like thirty green turtles.
Compared to the shit yellow color on their bodies, the color of the 90 helmets is really too green.
Damn military industry experts, why do you have to paint Mao in such a green color? It feels so weird. Remembering that he had been away from home for a long time and his wife lived alone, for a moment, the Japanese infantrymen on the battlefield felt that this green color could never be erased in their lifetime.
There was no terrible blow. There was no one on the Chinese position. Thirty Japanese soldiers, who did not know that they had caused great psychological pressure on their colleagues, excitedly waved the small sun flag on their rifles on the top of the mountain.
The cheers of "onboard" made Takeuchi Yunshan unable to hold back tears at that moment.
Not because it was so easy to occupy the Chinese position that had been difficult to conquer for a long time, but...
It's great. I don't have to fight with the Chinese anymore. This feels so wonderful!
But obviously, the next few days and nights proved that dreams are full, but reality is skinny!
If you don’t fight here, fight there!
Just like the future war model, as long as the Japanese army is still on Chinese soil, there will be battlefields everywhere.
The same is true for Guangde.
There is no need to fight here at Mouse Mountain. There are more mountains waiting for them until they get out of this mountainous area.
The key is how many people can get out of the mountains.
But at this time, Takeuchi Yunshan couldn't think of such a long-term future.
As the captain of the Green-headed Turtles, he could proudly give an order to the Major General's detachment leader who could not vomit blood to death: "The Chinese have been repulsed, and our imperial army will continue to advance towards Aurous Hill!"
"Bah!" Kunizaki stared blankly at the sun that was gradually setting towards the west. He wanted to spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm on the fairly straight face of his general.
A few deserted highlands have blocked the army's one-day journey. Do you know that?
. . . . . . . . .
PS: The college started school today, with meetings from 8:30 in the morning to 4 in the afternoon. In the evening, I went back to the old lady’s place to spend the holidays with them. I just finished writing two chapters. I’m sorry for the late update!
By the way, let me give you a warning for old book friends. The old books will be out in the next two days. If you still want to read, you can continue reading.
