Digging for gold!
This rather strange place name made the Army Major General stunned again.
Then there is Yixi. The so-called pit, as the name suggests, is a valley, which is most suitable for the terrain used by the 'heartless cannon' that Tang Dao just demonstrated.
But obviously, he thought wrong.
This pit is not that pit.
"Battal Commander, we sent people to look at the terrain here. This is a flood discharge valley. After years of torrents, the valley bottom is wider and the terrain is not so steep. If we ambush on the mountains, submachine guns and shell guns will
The range is not enough, but the Japanese Type 38 rifle can play a role, and it was also used as a backup at that time." Guo Shouzhi looked at the place name and asked subconsciously.
The Army Major General grinned slightly, but did not provide any advice immediately. Instead, he turned his gaze to Tang Dao to see how he would answer...
Although he didn't have much dealings with Tang Dao, this kid was definitely a smart man and a ruthless man. Whether he was persuading Master Rao to sacrifice his life to help him buy a day and a night, or he was leading a suicide squad with the dignity of a battalion commander.
The attack on the Japanese artillery positions proved that he had his own uniqueness in both strategy and tactics.
At least, he would never choose an ambush on a terrain that would create obstacles for himself but allow the Japanese army to exploit.
"Lao Guo is right. From the perspective of a pure ambush, the gold digging pit is indeed not the best place." Tang Dao nodded.
"But we can't just think about the problem from our own perspective, you have to think from the perspective of the Japanese commander.
For example, we choose a place with a narrow terrain. The width between the two mountains is no more than 50 meters. When people walk in it, they can’t see the sky when they look up. It’s eerie and creepy. Lao Zhuang, let me ask you, are you a Japanese commander?
The military situation is urgent, what will you do?"
"Then of course I have to send enough scouts. Only when it is safe will I order the army to enter. I will even choose a new marching route. Because I am here to get promoted and make a fortune, and I will never die in the wild mountains.
"Zhuang Shisan replied without hesitation.
Tang Dao spread his hands and said, "That's it! It might have been better if we didn't fight the Japanese army. The Japanese army was arrogant and arrogant. They sent out reconnaissance soldiers to check and leave without danger. However, after the battle at Mouse Mountain, they were
If the beating hurts, they will definitely put away the invincible tactics of the Imperial Japanese Army.
I cannot place all my hopes of victory on the enemy's stupidity. On the contrary, I believe you all know how difficult the Japanese are."
Therefore, I thought about it for a long time and finally decided to choose the ambush site here. If the Japanese army wants to outflank our army, this is the only way for them to go. Moreover, this terrain will not scare the Japanese too much, and they will not be able to enter it.
It’s too much of a psychological burden.”
Tang Dao was so confident that he was almost proud, "This is called attacking them unprepared. The more he thinks I won't fight here, the more I will beat them here."
However, seeing how confident Tang Dao was, the Army Major General still didn't quite understand what means he would use to attract the Japanese army to attack.
You must know that the Japanese army is not a chess piece on the chessboard and can be moved around at will.
However, before he could ask, Tang Dao turned his gaze to him, grinning and showing his white teeth: "Do you want to know, Commander Tong, how many explosive packs I have prepared for the Japanese army?
"How many explosive packs have you prepared?" The Army Major General was still a little curious after all.
Lieutenant General Rao brought his military exploits to the Group Army Headquarters, and then a telegram from the Group Army Headquarters found the general in charge of guarding Jinling, and strictly ordered the infantry brigade stationed in Wuhu to provide supplies, and then he collected 500 kilograms of explosives for Tang Dao, and then this
The next time he brought the baggage troops over.
If we work overnight to make explosive packets, we can make nearly 100 5-kg explosive packets. I cannot guarantee the quality.
"Hehe! Chief of Staff Zhuang has the most say when it comes to military supplies. Old Zhuang, tell me how many explosive packs we still have." Tang Dao pointed at Master Zhuang's powder with his finger.
"Reporting to Chief Tong, after counting, our department currently has 76 5kg explosive bags, 25 8kg explosive bags, and 6 10kg explosive bags. If we add the 500kg of explosives that Chief Tong sent today,
With the loss, our department can still produce 96 5kg explosive packets, or 48 10kg explosive packets." Zhuang Shisan, a data expert, directly accurate the data to single digits.
I don’t know if I don’t tell you, but I was really shocked when I heard it.
The Army Major General couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
Before leaving, the 145th Division handed over all the explosive packs, landmines and grenades to Tang Dao, but as the brigade commander, how could he not know that the 145th Division actually almost ran out of ammunition and food in the first battle at Jiepai Village?
Not to mention that the explosive packs given to Tang Dao were only a dozen or twenty, and even the grenades were actually only a mere 2,000. Among the 2,000 people under Tang Dao's current command, there was only one in each hand.
Why does Tang Dao's independent camp still have so many such horrible things?
Of course he didn't know how much 'savings' a poor person would have.
Tang Dao has never had the habit of using up all his trump cards. He would always choose to keep one hand at a time. Even if the first day of the Mouse Mountain Blockade was so brutal, he would not use big bombs like explosive packs as a last resort.
It is said that all three highlands are given to one guy to stud.
When the troops were separated from the 67th Army and the 43rd Army, the two armies had to evacuate to Jiangbei for repairs anyway, so how could he say that the lion could not open its mouth?
In addition to submachine guns, shell guns, machine guns and other firearms and ammunition, the most supplies he asked for from Comrade Lao Wu were explosives.
Others don't know about "heartless cannons", but Tang Dao, a future little butterfly, has always had a dream of "thousands of cannons flying together".
Although he also knows that this dream can only be realized in the next few decades by the Chinese Army that firmly implements the artillery doctrine. In this era, only American cowboys, Germans and fighting nations have this strength.
But there is still a chance of finding oil barrels!
Comrade Lao Wu didn't know that there was a black technology in the world that could throw explosive packets flying all over the sky, not to mention throwing them more than a hundred meters, otherwise he wouldn't have lost all the explosive stocks of the 67th Army to Tang Dao.
In other words, the explosive pack in Tang Dao's hand at this time was the entire explosive reserve of an army.
Can that not be too much?
"My dear, the total amount of explosives must not be 1,000 kilograms?" the Army Major General calculated carefully and took a breath of cold air.
"It's 1,120 kilograms of explosives! After accounting for the losses." Zhuang Shisan did not care at all about the fact that the Army Major General was not good at mathematics, and corrected it with the most accurate figures.
Lei Xiong and Guo Shouzhi couldn't help but roll their eyes. This guy started to show off again, and he didn't save any face for the Sichuan Army Major General.
"So few? Didn't I remember that there was a batch of explosives that I strictly ordered that no one could use without my approval? How many more are there?" Tang Dao was obviously not satisfied with the figure of less than 200 explosive packs.
.
"Oh, if you add that batch of explosives, there will still be 200 five-kilogram explosive bags, but you have to sign and approve them personally, battalion commander!" Zhuang Shisan replied.
"Use, use it all. After fighting this battle, we have no use for the time being. Why do we still have so many supplies left?" Tang Dao said.
The experienced Army Major General almost felt weak in the legs. Good guy, one thousand kilograms has become more than two thousand in a blink of an eye. If it were done according to Tang Dao's idea, the little devil would not be able to cry without crying.
Two thousand kilograms of explosives! If converted into 6.5 kilograms of artillery shells, that is 300. After such a round of blast, just thinking about the result is very satisfying!
Maybe Lei Xiong and Guo Shouzhi were shocked by the fact that they had so many explosive bags in their independent camp, and they were both a little silent for a while.
It seemed a little too quiet on the ridge.
Until the Army Major General took the initiative to say: "Ahem, this time I led the division's guard company and baggage company to escort the supplies. Since it coincides with this battle, how can I stand by and watch, look at Battalion Commander Tang"
This of course means dividing the battle merits.
Tang Dao grinned slightly.
Seeing Tang Dao's behavior, the Army Major General's face turned red under the moonlight and he hurriedly explained: "Our division's security company is well-equipped and is composed of veterans of more than three years. It will never hold back your division."
We can't blame the Army Major General for being cautious. The prospect depicted by Tang Dao is really too tempting. No matter how many Japanese troops can be annihilated, with this 'flying thunder cannon' and so many explosive packets, this battle will be stable.
win.
Although the 145th Division fought tenaciously in the battle of Jiepai, it still failed to resist the Japanese advance. At most, it delayed the Japanese army for a few days. If Tang Dao had not led the independent battalion to defeat the Kunisaki detachment in the battle of Mouse Mountain,
After a hard blow, the 145th Division did not dare to ask for supplies from the Army Headquarters.
The merits of this battle cannot be missed. Even if the 145th Division only has one guard company and one baggage company participating in the battle, it is still participating in the battle, right?
"Chief Tong is too humble. Sir Tong, you want to participate in this battle, but Tang Dao is asking for it." Tang Dao smiled happily.
His white teeth were almost dazzling in the moonlight.
When the Army Major General saw Tang Dao smiling so brightly, he was equally happy, but he seemed to have figured something out.
Mad, it seems that you have been fooled by this guy.
It seems that this guy has given the boss a piece of cake and is just waiting for him to jump on him.
With the addition of his 400 people, isn't it more certain than having 2,000 people?
