Chapter 308 Cut off the little devil’s escape route? "Your Excellency, Commander, what should we do now?" the communications staff officer looked at Lieutenant General Nakasa Moritaka and asked. "Wait a minute..." Lieutenant General Nakata Moritaka was still hesitating whether to send troops immediately. Because there is only one regiment in Yangcheng now, and there was originally a division garrisoned. Later, most of the troops were transferred, and with the troops stationed in various places, there are not many defenders in the city now. If he wanted to take back Wuzhou, he would need to dispatch at least one regiment. But with careful planning, the troops that can be used now can support a large group. A brigade? Dealing with the mechanic? It’s not impossible!
Although the aesthetic equipment is strong, it does not mean that the combat effectiveness is strong. "What is the combat effectiveness of the 59th Division?" Lieutenant General Nakata Moritaka was silent for a while and then asked. Upon hearing this, the combat staff on the side said quickly. "The combat effectiveness of the 59th Division of the Guangdong Army is not bad, but their veterans have been exhausted, and now they are supplemented by new recruits. Although they are equipped with beautiful weapons and equipment, their combat effectiveness should not be very high." Hearing this, Lieutenant General Nakasa Moritaka knocked on the table, and then fell into deep thought. "Your Excellency, Commander, the First Flight Regiment and the 105th Education Flight Regiment have not received missions for the time being. I think there should be no problem in dispatching a brigade to cooperate with fighter planes to retake Wuzhou. We must not let the other party complete the assembly, otherwise it will take too long , it may be detrimental to Yangcheng." Seeing Lieutenant General Nakata Moritaka deep in thought, the combat staff quickly explained. "You mean, the Fourth War Zone is going to launch an attack on Yangcheng?" Lieutenant General Nakata Moritaka was not surprised, because in the past few years, the Fourth War Zone has never been idle. It has always sent troops to attack Guangdong Province, but unfortunately they were all attacked. Withdrew. "Yes, otherwise it would be difficult to explain why they sent troops with fine weapons to attack Wuzhou? According to my understanding of them, elite troops like this will definitely preserve their strength and will never send such elite troops to attack." This is true! After all, the motley crew with some strength are all trying to preserve their strength! It is indeed rare to see elite troops come out to fight like this. The only explanation is that the Fourth War Zone has become ruthless and wants to attack Yangcheng again. Thinking of this, Lieutenant General Nakasa Moritaka thought for a while. "Xinxi, you are right, but one brigade alone is not enough, not even the First Flying Regiment, because those Chinese people will definitely engage in street fighting." "Tell Mr. Higashino to be careful and don't worry about the casualties of civilians. If necessary, you can use special bombs." Hearing this, no one in the Japanese military headquarters showed any signs of movement. Or for them, they have long been used to it. What's more, they are weak now. "In addition, send a telegram to the Central China Dispatch Army Headquarters to request reinforcements." Lieutenant General Nakata Moritaka was on the safe side and thought it was better to send a telegram to the Central China Dispatch Army Headquarters. It would be best to send some reinforcements.
If this team is gone, Yangcheng may not be safe by then. Therefore, it is better to talk about it in advance to be on the safe side, otherwise it will be really troublesome then. The reason why there is such concern is because the other party has dispatched an artillery force. Normally, a miscellaneous army would be reluctant to mobilize such an elite force. … "Based on what I know about the Japanese army, they will definitely come back with revenge. It won't be long before they will definitely send troops to retake Wuzhou. This is the peripheral defense line of Yangcheng. If we lose this place, we can march straight into Wuzhou City." Wang Tianfang looked at the map of Wuzhou City. He opened his mouth and analyzed. Even though he was just a guard battalion commander, Zhang Fakui has always been with him to teach him, so he still has a good command level. Otherwise, Zhang Fakui would not be so confident in letting him become the regiment leader and command thousands of people. "Regiment, what should we do?" Since most of the regiment is new recruits and the quality of the officers is also uneven, it is impossible to fight in the field. The only thing that can be done is street fighting. "Let the Japanese come in and beat them." Wang Tianfang pondered for a while and said his plan. "Let them in for a fight?" Some officers from the regiment asked hesitantly. "Yes, do you guys have any field experience? In other words, do you know how to arrange troops in the field?" Wang Tianfang asked. "I don't know." Several officers looked at each other and shook their heads. This is really not an exaggeration, some of them have no combat experience. Fighting with the Japanese army in the wild? Isn’t that giving people heads to the Japanese army? "Although we can fight trench warfare, we have to consider the Japanese fighter planes. Although we also have some anti-aircraft machine guns, the number is too small. It is still difficult to resist the bombing of the Japanese fighter planes." Wang Tianfang taught patiently. These are not elite troops, they are all newly formed regiments. It is not easy to capture Wuzhou City for the first time on the battlefield. When fighting the Japanese army in the wild, you use your own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strong points. As long as you are not a fool, you will definitely not do this. "Is nothing going to happen? There are still many people in the city?" an officer asked hesitantly. "Don't worry, nothing will happen. There are still two thousand brothers in the city. Besides, it's not like letting all the Japanese troops in, just a small part will be enough." With that, Wang Tianfang blocked his attack in sections. The tactics were spoken. To put it bluntly, the entire city is treated as a battlefield and then divided into different areas. Try to eliminate the Japanese army in the front area and prevent the Japanese army from destroying more buildings in Wuzhou City. Here Wang Tianfang is arranging a battle plan. On the other side, a brigade led by Major Higashino Jiro of the Japanese army is marching towards Wuzhou City as quickly as possible. Along the way, the Japanese army was full of momentum because Lieutenant General Nakaso Moritaka promised him that there would be fighter planes to support him. Not only that, he was even authorized to use special bombs when necessary. With two powerful weapons in hand, Major Higashino Jiro felt that a mere regiment of the China Army was nothing.
Even a single charge could easily capture Wuzhou City. It was based on this confidence that Major Higashino Jiro ordered the troops to speed up. The next battle was just as Major Higashino Jiro thought. There was no decent resistance outside Wuzhou City. At most, it was harassment by some small groups of troops, with the purpose of slowing down their march. Major Higashino Jiro didn't care about this and ordered the troops to continue advancing. When he arrived at Wuzhou City, he found that there was no defensive position outside the city, which made Major Higashino Jiro feel a little nervous. Is there some kind of ambush? It shouldn’t be! Normally, they are all defending the city and setting up positions on the outside. The result? There are obviously no decent defenders in the outer positions? Could it be to lure the enemy deeper? Thinking of this, Major Higashino Jiro immediately asked someone to send a telegram to Yangcheng, asking whether Yangcheng was safe. As a result, the news was received that there were no enemies outside Yangcheng. He was even scolded for being too timid. Are you frightened by the beautiful equipment? Even after being scolded, Major Higashino Jiro did not relax his vigilance and sent out a search team to search within a fifty-kilometer radius, but no ambush was found. Now Major Higashino Jiro really believed that there was indeed no ambush. "Nani, am I really overthinking this?" Major Higashino Jiro thought for a while and decided to send a small team to test the enemy's firepower. As a result, the defensive positions outside the city were not as strong as expected. After several rounds of mortar bombardment, the outer positions were abandoned. "Your Excellency, Captain, will you continue to send troops to pursue us?" After hearing what his subordinates said, Major Higashino Jiro thought for a while. If he didn't pursue him, he would be underestimating himself. But if he was ambushed, wouldn't it be the end? "Let the entire First Squadron attack and capture Wuzhou City as quickly as possible." After careful consideration, Major Higashino Jiro decided to send out the entire First Squadron. "Hai." "Report to the company commander, a Japanese squadron was spotted on the left, and it is suspected that it is rushing towards us." In the city, Zheng Bei, who looked nervous, immediately picked up his binoculars to observe after receiving the report from his subordinates. Through the telescope, it was discovered that it was indeed a squadron of Japanese troops rushing towards them.
"Is there only one squadron?" Zheng Bei frowned slightly. Although his company is not a standard company in the US military, there are still two hundred people in a company. Although most of them are new recruits, all of them are equipped with beautiful weapons and equipment, and their combat effectiveness is several times stronger than before. This is why Wang Tianfang spread them out, using companies and platoons as units, relying on buildings, to resist step by step. After this **** battle, an iron-blooded army will definitely be forged. By the way, let me summarize my experience in street fighting. After all, there is still a battle to attack Xiangjiang later. Now is the time to accumulate experience. "Company Commander, why don't we withdraw first? We may not be able to defeat a squadron of Japanese troops." A newly joined soldier said with some fear. "What the **** are you talking about? The weapon Shangfeng gave you was a fire stick? If you dare to run away today, I will kill you directly." Zheng Bei was originally from a guard camp, so he definitely couldn't do such a thing as shrinking from the battle. , hearing that his subordinates were about to retreat, he was naturally furious. "Brothers, it is impossible to withdraw. Shangfeng sent us new guns, and they sent them to us. In any case, it is natural for soldiers to fight. Do you know what we are getting?" "It's beautiful equipment. It's beautiful equipment that even our direct troops can't equip. No matter what, we must be worthy of Shangfeng's kindness." "If this battle doesn't go well, will you still have the dignity to live in this world?" "Where is this place? It's Wuzhou, our own hometown. If we retreat without a fight, are you worthy of the fellow villagers in Wuzhou?" Zheng Bei's words made many soldiers lower their heads in shame. "No face." Someone said while suppressing his blush. "Okay, you have the backbone, this is a good man. Everyone cheer me up, don't save bullets for me, beat these **** hard." Seeing that his morale had recovered a lot, Zheng Bei immediately shouted loudly. There must be no hesitation at this time. While the morale is still good, hurry up and let your subordinates open fire. "Fire!" "Fight!" "Ta-ta-ta!" When the Japanese entered the position, more than a hundred guns opened fire at the same time. The terrifying firepower made the scalp of the Japanese squadron leader numb. "Nani, you actually have such powerful firepower?" The dense rain of bullets like a torrential rain swept more than a dozen Japanese soldiers to the ground in an instant. The moment he heard the gunfire, Captain Sasaki of the Japanese squadron immediately fell to the ground. Even though I was mentally prepared, I was still a little frightened when I saw such a dense rain of bullets. He finally understood why the captain was so careful.
Facing such terrifying firepower, if you are not careful, you will be completely wiped out. "Baga, fight back quickly, fight back quickly." "Nani, grenadier, return fire immediately." Before entering the city, he felt that the captain was too cautious. Now I feel that the captain is wise and powerful. Fortunately, the Japanese army's military quality was very good. After a brief panic, they immediately began to counterattack. "Quick, quick, heavy machine gun fire cover." "Hai." Soon, light and heavy machine guns began to return fire. Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta! Unfortunately, the firepower on the other side was stronger than theirs, and the dense rain of bullets suppressed their own machine guns to the point of losing their temper. Especially those submachine guns combined with light and heavy machine guns, the rate of fire is obviously far higher than them. "So many automatic firearms? Is this still a miscellaneous army? How is it possible? How come they have so much ammunition?" Captain Sasaki's face became extremely ugly. "Baga, grenadier, suppress their fire." "You idiots, hurry up." "Hai!" Several Japanese grenadiers were measuring the distance with their fingers, then took out the grenade, stepped on it, loaded the shells, pulled lightly, and then fired the shells, only to hit the building. Even so, the splashing gravel also frightened many recruits. The recruits, who were still immersed in the pleasure of shooting, immediately came back to their senses. "Don't panic, hold on, hold on." Zheng Bei knew that he must not make these recruits fearful, otherwise they would be defeated. You know, behind them is a supervising team. Anyone who dares to step over will be killed on the spot. "Your Excellency, Squadron Leader, there are too many buildings here, and it is difficult to suppress the firepower from the opposite side." "Baga." For a long time, the Japanese army was most proud of its firepower. What was the result? The enemy's firepower was stronger than theirs, and it was still a street fight. This directly weakened their individual soldier quality advantage. After all, it is a body of flesh and blood, so it cannot pass through a barrage like a fishing net, right?
As long as you dare to get up, dozens of bullets will definitely hit them. "Bagayalu..." This time Captain Sasaki was completely furious. "Send out the mortars and destroy the opponent's machine gun positions immediately." "Hai." "Hahahaha, you are nothing more than a little devil, give me a good beating." "You **** little devils also have today, fight, fight me, don't be reluctant to give up the ammunition." Wang Tianfang said, don't worry about ammunition, just make whatever you want. It was precisely with these words that Zheng Bei dared to say these words so boldly. The unscrupulous suppression of the Japanese army gave these recruits the idea that the Japanese army was nothing more than this. Seeing the Japanese army's embarrassment, Zheng Bei felt very happy. When could they suppress the Japanese army like this? Have you ever fought such a happy battle? "Without the advantages of weapons and equipment, a little devil would be nothing more than that." Zheng Bei said even more boldly. "Company commander, how about we send a platoon to go over there? Cut off the kid's escape route?" (End of chapter)
