Chapter 457 The Battle of Zhangshan (1)

Half an hour later, Zhang Tianhai announced the official combat order when the military chief officers except the first battalion, the artillery battalion, the baggage battalion, the small artillery company, the special agent company, and the guard platoon were not in place, and the other military chief officers were in place.

Defence location, Zhanshan.

The positions of the first battalion are mainly based on the second battalion and the fourth battalion are respectively spread out on the left and right wings, forming an arc-shaped defensive position on the hillside of Zhanshan; the top of Zhanshan is the artillery position of the artillery battalion and the small cannon company; the cavalry battalion is the regiment mobile force and is equipped with a mobile communication squad, responsible for stationing at Xigaohuang Temple, and supporting the main guard position at any time; the main infantry force is the third battalion as the general reserve; the mortar company directly under the regiment headquarters strengthens the defense force of the main position; the spy company and the guard platoon accept direct command of the regiment headquarters after completing the task of assisting the artillery battalion and the small cannon company up the mountain; the military police company forms a wartime supervision team in the ranking unit and breaks up the main position battalion.

After accepting the mission, each battalion and company immediately began to act. Under Zhang Tianhai's order, a group of war machines had been slowly activated!

Teams of Central Army officers and soldiers, under the command of the platoon leader and company commander, began to enter the Zhanshan position.

What is different from usual is that the soldiers who were in a group of soldiers entered the mountain without litting torches, but took advantage of the moonlight to illuminate them and went straight in. They were afraid that they would alarm the enemy, but they did not dare to attack Zhanshan.

This order was issued by Zhang Tianhai. Since the Japanese army wanted to enter Zhanshan and rushed into that type, they must have no time to conduct a large amount of reconnaissance.

So, Zhang Tianhai wanted to make an article from this point, in order to severely damage the Japanese army at the beginning. When the Japanese army found that Zhanshan had fallen into the hands of others, they might not have time to capture Zhanshan, and the pursuers of Tang Enbo's army were about to surround him.

In general, Zhang Tianhai's previous combat style - winning in a dangerous situation.

Not only that, he also set up the regiment headquarters closest to the main position of the first battalion.

That night, Zhang Tianhai's headquarters directly under the Third War Zone, had a busy night and finally completed the mission of the entire regiment entering the mountain.

It was also in the middle of the night that the main Japanese army trapped in Taierzhuang finally opened a gap from the main position of the 52nd Army of the National Army and expanded the gap. The main force broke out from the encirclement from the gap, and then quickly turned towards Yi County.

After the commander-in-chief of the Fifth War Zone confirmed that the main force of the Isogai Division would open a gap in the position of the 52nd Army, not only the main force of the Tang Enbo Legion launched a chasing attack on the Japanese army from south to north, but even Sun Lianzhong's Second Army broke out of the city and advanced together with the Tang Enbo Legion to pursue the Japanese army.

However, what is unexpected is that the main force of the Japanese army had already arrived at Zhanshan before dawn.

And it was arrived shortly after Zhang Tianhai's regiment command was set up.

The enemy troops of the unit directly bypassed Lanling Town, the county seat of Lanling County, and then fled to the scene. This scared Gu Shi'an, deputy commander of Lanling City Defense, and thought that the Japanese army was going to attack Lanling County.

After seeing the army of Tang Enbo's army pursue the Japanese army, Gu Shi'an took the courage to order the two city defense camps under his command who had just learned to carry guns to go out of the city to pursue them.

I have to say that Gu Shi'an's move was very bold. If the Japanese army killed one and retaliated, the city defense camp that had just learned to carry guns alone did not necessarily need the Japanese army to attack the city into the city before it would collapse. The Japanese army used a fifteen-born heavy howitzer to bomb the city defense in Lanling County, which might cause the city defense camp to collapse or even bomb the camp.

The camera returns to Zhanshan.

The desert mountains in the dark are rolling, but they are not as beautiful as those in the primeval forests in the south. After all, these are several small hills standing on the Wanli Plain, a little abrupt and not very high.

The main reason why it is said to be at a critical location is that there are no other higher marker peaks in Yi County except Jiuding Mountain, Zhanshan, Tianzhu Mountain and Baishan.

For this unobstructed plain, these peaks must be commanding heights, natural observation posts for artillery soldiers, and can extend and amplify the range of artillery weapons.

Fortunately, Zhang Tianhai has a trace of remaining memory and his understanding of the war terrain, which is why he focused on defense of Zhanshan. Even when the straight group may face mobilization at any time, he still has to draw out a main battalion's troops to defend Zhanshan area.

Ichiro Ozawa is an ordinary lieutenant squadron leader of the 10th Regiment of the 33rd Brigade (Navoseya Kei) under the jurisdiction of the Isotani Ryosuke Division.

Ichiro Ozawa is not tall, only 1.68 meters tall, but his strength is due to his thick figure.

At this time, Ichiro Ozawa was no longer as calm and arrogant as before. At this time, he was busy escaping his life. To be more precise, he was escaping with goals and purpose.

Long before breaking through, the wing captain Colonel Akashiya Yaedei convened the officers of the surviving 10th Regiment and held a relatively brief military combat meeting.

At the military meeting, in addition to announcing the breakout order issued by the division commander Lieutenant General Isotani Ryosuke, they were also informed that the remaining main forces of the 10th Regiment should march towards Zhanshan together with the remaining main forces of the Sato Regiment of the 10th Division, and also be assigned to an artillery squadron.

The main force of the two regiments sounds like a lot of people, but don’t forget that they are the remnants. The main force of the two regiments has only more than 2,800 people, and the number of people only after being equipped with the artillery squadron.

As we all know, artillery troops are the only front-line troops among the various branches of the army that do not need to go to the front line to fight against the enemy, so their personnel are relatively sufficient.

In other words, these more than 2,800 people also include more than 100 artillery units.

Before dawn, Ozawa Iichiro had been running away. After all, he was running a little slower and he was going to be killed by the Chinese army that was catching up with him. At that time, he had no life.

"Damn dad (hold on), brothers, Zhanshan, right in front!" As the commander of the opening troops, Ichiro Ozawa was the first to take the lead.

The hazy back of the deer mountain in the dark was gradually emerging in front of everyone. This scene gave these Japanese devils running a lot of hope. After all, the deer mountain looked pitch black and didn't look like someone was stationed.

This should be the credit of Zhang Tianhai's order to prevent everyone from stoking. If they found fire on the mountain, they might go directly to the Yixian County, which was defending the Japanese troops who had retreated before.

"Sayi, Kuaiyui Heiji (bang, brothers)!" Ozawa Ichiro was dragging his tired and heavy body and shouting forward. He seemed to want to inject a hint of heart-warming agent into these Japanese soldiers who were about to end their strength.

However, what was against the will of things was that his shout seemed to have no effect, but instead gave the national army on Zhanshan a great awakening.

That's right, it's just a big wake-up call.

The mountains are covered with darkness and quietness. It can be said that there are almost no other sounds except for the sound of engineer shovels starting on the top of the mountain.

The Japanese army approached Zhanshan, not only with complicated steps, but also with these Japanese grassroots officers shouting to cheer the soldiers up.

This burst of shouting was a life-threatening sound, and it was obviously in Japanese!
