Chapter 555: Baga, We Made an Empirical Mistake Number One
Chapter 555 Baga, we made an empiricist error (first update)
The number of artillery shells falling from the sky will not decrease as the Japanese attack speed is accelerated. Every round of artillery shells that fall down will take away a large number of Japanese and puppet soldiers' lives.
When the enemy and we were still more than 100 meters apart, the sound of artillery suddenly stopped. More than half of the 200-plus Japanese and puppet troops had been killed and wounded. Although the remaining 100 or so Japanese and puppet troops rushed forward desperately, their formation was already in chaos.
The puppet troops who were originally rushing in front ran behind the Japanese at some point, exposing dozens of Japanese to the Eighth Route Army.
"Da da da……"
The temporarily strengthened fourth company was equipped with a total of ten light machine guns, which were arranged in two rows. The five machine guns in front opened fire at the same time. The dense rain of bullets was like a row of death harvesters, instantly sweeping the two rows of Japanese soldiers rushing towards them into a sieve.
!
The five crooked handles had just fired the bullets, and the five crooked handles behind them fired, ensuring that the machine gun firepower would not be interrupted.
The Japanese squadron leader escaped the first round of bullets that hit him, but before he had time to rejoice, the second round of bullets drilled three bloody holes in his chest, and he fell to the ground without moving.
Deng Jingye held the crooked handle and pulled the trigger crazily, and the bullets shot out as if they were free of charge.
As soon as the barrel of the gun was empty, he threw away the light machine gun, took out the cannon from his waist, waved forward and ordered: "Comrades... there are not many Japs left, all of them kill with me..."
"The puppet troops surrendered their guns and refused to kill...charge..."
The commander of the Japanese garrison headquarters in Wangdu County waited until noon until the afternoon. More than 200 troops who retreated from the Chenji stronghold did not return to the city.
Without waiting for Major General Hase to speak, he hurriedly reported: "General... there are Eighth Route Army troops operating in Baoding!"
"The quick reaction brigade will start taking action as soon as it forms an army... We must wipe out the Eighth Route Army there as quickly as possible!"
"Call Wangdu County immediately and ask if there is any new situation with the Eighth Route Army active there!"
Before Major General Hase's anger subsided, the person in charge of intelligence also ran over, looking very nervous and panting. One look at his expression and you knew something was wrong.
"Bageya Road, we have made an empiricist error again!" The captain responded quickly and said with a look of enlightenment after hearing this.
He walked quickly to the sand table, pointed at the Qinggang stronghold and said: "This place has been occupied by the Eighth Route Army... The Zhoushan stronghold fifteen kilometers northwest has also lost contact... 80% has been captured by the Eighth Route Army!"
"If the Eighth Route Army is brave enough and gathers heavy troops to continue attacking us, the county seat may change hands!"
"General, the reinforcements are traveling very smoothly and will be able to enter Baoding in three hours!" the communications staff officer reported with a smile.
"But the scale of this ambush was too small, and the troops withdrawing from the Chenji stronghold were not equipped with radios. They could not call us for help immediately when they were attacked!"
"This is an opponent who doesn't play by the rules and is very difficult to deal with. We must nip them in the bud!"
"We should immediately ask for help from the brigade headquarters and ask the brigade commander to send troops to reinforce us, strengthen the strength of the garrison in Wangdu County, and not give the Eighth Route Army any opportunity to take advantage!"
"Subconsciously, I felt that the Eighth Route Army was afraid of our aviation and did not dare to send troops to ambush us during the day. They forgot that there were too few troops withdrawing from the Chenji stronghold to the county town, and they did not analyze the problem based on actual conditions!"
"It will be difficult to destroy them again!"
Just as he was getting more and more restless, the lieutenant in charge of intelligence suddenly ran over and reported solemnly: "Sir, the Eighth Route Army retreating from the opportunistic stronghold was ambushed by the Eighth Route Army outside the city, and the entire army was destroyed... The weapons they brought back
Throw away all the ammunition too!”
"If they can't handle it on their own, wait until the quick reaction brigade is formed and make it the first target of attack."
Major General Hase's anger suddenly surged into his heart, and he clenched his fists and ordered to his deputy: "Immediately formulate an action plan to reinforce Wangdu County...the faster, the faster!"
"If I had known that the Eighth Route Army had the guts to ambush us in broad daylight, the troops should have retreated last night!"
"After the mobile troops are formed, they can reinforce the battlefield at any time and solve the crisis!"
"Even if we receive the request for help in time, it will be too late to contact the aviation force to reinforce the battlefield!"
The brigade captain's face became more and more solemn, and he strode towards the phone: "I'm going to call the brigade commander now and ask for reinforcements!"
The temporary deputy immediately came over: "Their camp is ready, and they can form a quick reaction brigade when they enter the city!"
"The Eighth Route Army ambushed our troops during the day. How can they be so bold? They are not afraid that the ambush troops will be targeted by our aviation forces, and they will steal the chicken but lose the rice!" the captain asked with disbelief on his face, and his words were full of shock and suspicion.
The deputy quickly accepted the order: "Please rest assured, brigade commander, I will contact the Wangdu County garrison soon to find out the enemy's situation and formulate a battle plan... I will try to hand it over to you before tomorrow night!"
The lieutenant thought for a moment and explained: "They are afraid of our aviation!"
"All the four strongholds they built outside the city were attacked, and all the garrison troops were destroyed. There were only more than 200 imperial troops and one battalion of the Imperial Association Army left in Wangdu County..."
Just as the communications staff officer was about to leave, the telephone soldier on the side suddenly covered the phone and said: "Report to the general... Report from the Wangdu County garrison..."
"Otherwise, with the speed at which the Eighth Route Army recruits troops, it will soon be able to expand the number of hundreds of people into one or two thousand!"
The adjutant analyzed with a stern face: "Sir, after the Chenji stronghold was lost! The entire Wangdu, except the county seat, is still in our hands, and all other places are occupied by the Eighth Route Army!"
"As long as the enemy is strong enough, the battle can be over in twenty or thirty minutes!"
"If we are attacked, we may not be able to hold on for a whole night...Please ask the brigade commander to send reinforcements immediately!"
"They carried out the order...but the Eighth Route Army operating in Wangdu County was very cunning and courageous. They actually assembled a large number of troops to ambush the returning troops outside the city!"
"Before I didn't have any troops, I was afraid that some counties in Baoding would be attacked, but now I'm not afraid anymore!"
"By the time the garrison realized something was wrong, the returning troops had been completely wiped out, and the Eighth Route Army that participated in the ambush had also disappeared!"
Major General Hase breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I can finally have a good sleep tonight!"
"Bageya Road, didn't I ask them to shrink their defenses, withdraw all the troops outside the city into the city, and concentrate their forces to defend the county? Why didn't they carry out the order? Do they still care about me, the brigade commander?"
The radio operator immediately explained: "General, calm down!"
"At that time, there were still two strongholds in our hands, and the two troops withdrew to the county town at the same time. No matter how courageous the Eighth Route Army was, they would not dare to separate their troops for two ambushes. Maybe one of the troops could be withdrawn..."
At the Japanese brigade headquarters in Baoding, Major General Hase stayed in the telecommunications room to pay attention to the reinforcements sent by the front army, and would ask them about their specific locations every two hours.
"We must send troops immediately to destroy this Eighth Route Army, otherwise Baoding City may be attacked!"
Major General Hase was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood on the sand table and analyzed with suppressed anger: "Baoding City is a transfer station for many supplies, weapons and ammunition going south, and its geographical location is very important... The roads and railways connecting Baoding City are also very busy, every day
There are a lot of supplies coming in and out..."
"If there are Eighth Route Army activities nearby, these supplies may be attacked at any time, which is very dangerous!"
