Chapter 853 Jiujiang Counterattack (7)(1/2)
"So, according to Captain Zhang's opinion, is our troops going to slow down the attack?" Xu Jiyuan asked, his face full of solemnity.
"The attack is halfway through now. If you call to stop the attack at this time, it will only lose the lives of your brothers in vain. If we do this, we will be sorry to the brothers below." Zhang Tianhai said in a deep voice, his tone full of solemnity.
"Which according to Captain Zhang's meaning?" Xu Jiyuan said seriously.
"I mean, after this wave of attack, we will suspend the attack. Let these Japanese soldiers take a breath. If the bait is eaten, it will not be fun. Please ask Brigade Commander Xu to cooperate with our general operation this time." Zhang Tianhai said very seriously, with no joking on his face.
"Okay, then do as you wish!" After saying that, Xu Jiyuan turned his head and said to the correspondent around him: "Call the 97th Regiment and the 98th Regiment immediately. After this general attack, slow down the pace of the offensive."
"Yes, sir!" the correspondent responded.
When Xu Jiyuan ordered the troops under him to slow down the attack, Zhang Tianhai was not idle either.
Zhang Tianhai shouted: "Wang Liang!"
"Reporting the team! I'm humble!" Wang Liang, the adjutant next to him, also responded loudly.
"Call Deputy Commander Guo immediately and ask him to leave a battalion outside our hometown to station. Other troops will immediately come out to the mountains and gather. Go closer to Jiujiang County. If there are any other situations, immediately launch an attack on the enemy!" Zhang Tianhai said in a deep voice.
"Yes! Group seat!" Wang Liang responded, and then hurried to execute Zhang Tianhai's order.
Xu Jiyuan was quite interested in Zhang Tianhai's orders - he wanted to know what this bold guy in front of him wanted to do? Should he really fight with the Japanese reinforcements?
"Bountain Xu, you don't have to look at me with such eyes. I do this for the overall situation." Zhang Tianhai said with a wry smile.
"No, I'm not that kind of person who is inferior to others. The troops of the Regiment Commander Zhang are the essence of our country's army, and they are not weaker than the Japanese army's configuration. I'm very curious about what we will be like in this confrontation." Xu Jiyuan admitted openly, and he was not that kind of person who is not open and honest.
"Look at it! We won't suffer any losses in this battle." Zhang Tianhai said very seriously.
"That Jiujiang County?" Xu Jiyuan blurted out.
"We must be liberated. I must defeat these Japanese reinforcements!" Zhang Tianhai was full of confidence and proud.
Perhaps he was infected by Zhang Tianhai's heroic spirit, Xu Jiyuan waved his big hand forward and said heroically: "Captain Zhang is really a heroic young man. Even if this battle breaks the sky, I, Xu, will make a fuss with you to see what this monkey makes a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace is like."
"Okay, I wish us a victory and invincible." Zhang Tianhai had a confident smile on his face. It would be better to have such a good teammate who took the initiative to do his best.
"Okay!" Xu Jiyuan stretched out his right hand.
Zhang Tianhai smiled lightly and then grabbed it.
...
To the north of Mount Lu, the inconspicuous Jijia Village.
This place is still the left-behind regiment headquarters of the First Guard Regiment of the Ninth War Zone, and the deputy regiment commander Guo Qiliang led his troops here.
If it were other troops, there would definitely be no such "elegant name" as "left-behind regiment headquarters", mainly because the organization of the First Regiment of the Ninth War Zone Guards is too large. Including the troops directly under the regiment headquarters and the baggage battalion, there are only nine battalions.
Which regiment-level unit will have nine battalions? This is clearly a brigade!
Yes, if it is replaced with other troops, it will be a reorganized brigade - five infantry battalions will be expanded to six, and the troops directly under the regiment headquarters can be fully adapted to troops directly under the brigade headquarters, while the cavalry battalion and artillery battalion are supported units directly under the brigade headquarters, which is originally a regiment-level unit!
Since Zhang Tianhai took out the Cavalry Battalion, the Second Battalion, the Third Battalion and the Small Cannon Company, Guo Qiliang has taken on the position of commander of the left-behind troops. Every day, he has been busy and at ease.
To put it bluntly, there is no tiger in the mountains, and the monkey is called the king.
Guo Qiliang, who had just finished handling the specific official business, crossed his legs and hummed a small song from his hometown behind his desk leisurely. It looked very relaxed.
However, at this moment, a communications officer ran in and reported: "Report to the deputy commander of the regiment, the regiment commander is urgently sent, please read the instructions!"
After hearing this news, Guo Qiliang stood up immediately regardless of his physical fatigue, almost grabbed the telegram from the communications officer and read it carefully.
After a while, Guo Qiliang's face changed drastically. He immediately said in a panic: "Except for the Fifth Battalion, all other troops gathered, including the baggage battalion!"
Guo Qiliang knew very well that the Fifth Battalion's troops had not yet developed combat effectiveness. This troops were still a long way from being able to truly put on the battlefield and must be strictly trained.
Even if it is a baggage battalion, it is more useful than this fifth battalion when it is pulled to the front line.
Therefore, even if Guo Qiliang wants to build a lineup that is all combat troops, he is powerless.
"Yes! Sir!!" The communications consultant responded.
With Guo Qiliang's order, the left-behind troops of the First Guard Regiment of the Ninth War Zone also began to concentrate, including He Jiye's military police and the engineering company.
Guo Qiliang knew very well what Zhang Tianhai wanted to do. Zhang Tianhai, the old boy, had pulled out his old foundation, obviously he wanted to have a big fight with the Japanese army.
I'm afraid this is no less than the lineup in Tangtou's battle.
But no matter what, Guo Qiliang, as Zhang Tianhai's deputy, his mission is to assist the military chief officer in completing the combat mission.
...
Ximen Front.
Due to the fierce firepower of the National Army, the Japanese army was suddenly beaten so hard that they could not raise their heads, and the vanguards of the National Army began to rush to the city.
At this moment, the Japanese army began to throw grenades.
Just like in the TV series, the Japanese army was relying on the corner to throw melon grenades under the city.
“Boom!!!”
“Boom!!!”
“Boom!!!”
Grenades began to explode under the city, and the National Army began to suffer casualties.
"Captain, what should we do now?" asked the Chief of Staff Liao Penghui next to him, obviously not very optimistic about the front line.
"Wait, as long as we can attack, the Japanese will not be able to stand it anymore. They have few people. Now our army is going to fight from all sides, and it will be up to who can't stand it first." Huang Qisan clenched his fists gently. Obviously, his confidence was not full.
"Then do we have to arrange a reserve team first?" After all, Huang Qisan is the regiment commander, and many things on the battlefield must be solicited for Huang Qisan's opinions.
"No rush to attack, but the reserve team can arrange it first. As long as the situation requires, we will immediately order the troops." Huang Qisan wanted to refuse, but seeing the current tactics of the Japanese, he became a little coward again.
He Huang Qisan is not only the commander of the 48th Brigade, but also the commander of all the officers and soldiers of their 97th Regiment!
If this battle is lost like this, then these brothers who died on the offensive formation will die in vain!
More importantly, Huang Qisan watched with his own eyes - these Japanese gunslingers on the city wall were accurate, and they all aimed at the head. As long as they were hit, they would definitely not survive.
After this battle, Huang Qisan was almost unable to hold it in.
Yes, Huang Qisan definitely does not belong to the very calm commander. On the contrary, he is very excited and has a relatively irritable personality.
Huang Qisan was already restraining his impulse when these brothers who lived with each other day died in battle.
Because Huang Qisan knew that in this battle, the Japanese in front of him were just fishing bait, and their commander's goal was to roll the entire fish pond so that he could know the big trends of the entire battle situation.
If it were any other time, Huang Qisan would have ordered the troops to show their strength to these hateful Japanese soldiers to see their true strength.
At this time, the dragon has to be trampled and the tiger has to be lying down.
...
The camera turned and then turned to the southeast.
As the corner of the wall was blown up, the whole situation reversed: if the firepower of the national army was strong enough, they could use this gap to attack the city, and a huge gap had appeared on the Japanese defense line.
After the Japanese squadron leader stationed at the South Gate came to his senses, he immediately felt cold sweat: As a qualified soldier, he knew very well what the collapse of this corner of the city would mean at this time!
"Yes! Send someone to block the gap immediately and don't let the Chinese army attack in!" The Japanese squadron leader shouted, afraid that the reaction would be slow.
In fact, this city corner was not a tofu project, but it was an extremely strong fortification, but there was no way. The fortifications here had been destroyed by a Japanese artillery fire. The fortifications that were barely repaired could not resist the explosives!
It is precisely because of this component that the national army will have such a huge gap of about ten meters wide when it explodes!
"Hey, the Japanese are so panicked. When we get blown up like this, they must be like that shocking bird, right?" Liu Houming smiled, unable to even remember the idioms, and could only look like "I'm illiterate".
"It's a frightened bird!" A voice sounded next to it.
Liu Houming turned his face and saw that this was not the new battalion commander of the Third Battalion.
Yang Jiquan looks gentle, which is in sharp contrast to a rough man like Liu Houming, so the latter probably doesn’t look down on the former, so he said: “Captain Yang, now our spy company is helping your brothers in the third battalion to explode a city wall. You have to thank me!”
Yang Jiquan didn't care much. He patted Liu Houming on the shoulder and said, "That's a must. If you go into the city, I told the team that you must remember your first merit."
"Be serious?" Liu Houming looked suspicious, obviously he did not trust the battalion commander who had been working with him for a short time.
...
PS: There are 1100 words left, so everyone will wait for about ten minutes and they will finish writing soon.

Grenades began to explode under the city, and the National Army began to suffer casualties.
"Captain, what should we do now?" asked the Chief of Staff Liao Penghui next to him, obviously not very optimistic about the front line.

He Huang Qisan is not only the commander of the 48th Brigade, but also the commander of all the officers and soldiers of their 97th Regiment!
