791 Third regiment leader Shen Quan’s fighting style
Japanese captain Yamauchi actually has many trump cards.
His mountain company is equipped with an artillery squadron, equipped with more than a dozen larger-caliber artillery pieces including infantry guns and 75mm mountain guns.
In addition, there is also a cavalry squadron and a chariot squadron as the mobile troops for this surprise attack.
There is even a machine gun squadron, with more than a dozen heavy machine guns, plus dozens of light machine guns, which are concentrated as superior firepower to cover infantry charges.
Just considering that the independent group may have laid an ambush in Dafengzhuang in advance.
Just like Kong Jie, the commander of the independent regiment, set up an ambush in Dafengzhuang for the first time and even had the entire tank squadron and cavalry squadron wiped out.
Therefore, neither Yamauchi nor Kawakami, the captains of the Japs Regiment, dared to let the mobile trump card troops of their own regiment break away from the main force and go deep into adventure alone.
The vanguard brigade of the Yamauchi Regiment was entangled behind the front combat area by the main force of the Second Independent Regiment.
Yamauchi ordered the main force to gradually advance forward and cover the retreat of the vanguard brigade.
At this time, Ding Wei's straight-moving combat unit used the fast-moving bicycles on hand to quickly pass through the mountain road on the flank.
The originally scattered mopping up troops of the Yamauchi Regiment gradually gathered towards the third line of defense of the Second Independent Regiment. When a gap in mopping up appeared, they took the opportunity to detour to the back of the Yamauchi Regiment.
Nearly half of the main force of the independent group and a team of more than a thousand people followed at the same time.
The new regiment's direct-moving troops only need to block the Japanese army from the back and side for half an hour.
The main force of an independent group can arrive quickly.
"Your Excellency, Wing Commander, our reconnaissance force has discovered the Eighth Route Army troops outflanking, and is now approaching the right center of our army."
Nearly half of the vanguard brigade has been withdrawn.
Yamauchi, an old Japanese soldier, gritted his teeth and was preparing to forcefully break through the enemy's defensive position after the vanguard brigade withdrew. Then the news came.
"Nani? Detour!"
Yamauchi's heart skipped a beat.
He often hears people say that the Eighth Route Army is good at mountain warfare, guerrilla warfare, and roundabout warfare.
They can quickly travel through mountainous areas.
You never know when and how they will suddenly appear from somewhere and catch you off guard.
The tactics of the enemy's Eighth Route Army troops are very obvious at present. They use the front defensive position as a frontal blocker to attract the main firepower of the Yamauchi Regiment and take the opportunity to cover the detour of the flanking troops.
"Baga, these damn Tubal Roads are so rampant. They want to completely surround our troops and attack from both front and rear!"
But Yamauchi's face was more disdainful, "These Tubal Roads are too confident in their own appetites.
How can we, the elite of the Japanese Empire, be eaten by a group of beggars who want to eat them?"
"Signal Corps."
"Arrived!"
"Inform Miki and Nakamura immediately and order their cavalry and tank troops to quickly cut off the Tubal Road detour from the flanks."
"Hi!"
Looking at the communications soldiers who immediately went to convey the order, Yamauchi felt a little relieved.
This is where his confidence lies.
This time, the Yamauchi Regiment was specially assigned a tank squad, plus a cavalry squadron.
Both teams have high-speed mobility.
If the Eighth Route Army wants to take a detour from the flank, it will take time.
Although these two mobile troops did not dare to go deep alone to test whether there was an Eighth Route Army trap in Dafeng Village.
But it is perfect for dealing with the small roundabout troops of the Eighth Route Army.
After Yamauchi's order was issued, Miki, captain of the Japanese cavalry squadron, and Nakamura, captain of the chariot squad, immediately led the cavalry and chariot troops to block Ding Wei's straight-moving chariot troops from the flanks.
Looking down from above.
The direct driving force of the New Regiment is heading eastward and quickly detours towards the back of the Yamauchi Regiment.
The Japanese's cavalry squadron and chariot squadron quickly moved northeastward amid the sound of horse hooves and the roar of tank engines.
According to the speed and direction of travel of both parties, if nothing unexpected happens, they will completely encounter each other at a certain point.
……
……
The other side.
Due to different generals, the final combat deployments are naturally different.
In the direction of Xiaozhaigou Road, Wang Leihu, the leader of the Second Independent Regiment, moved the Japanese vanguard brigade closer, then directly dragged the Japanese vanguard brigade, and then bombarded the main force of the Japanese, taking the opportunity to cover the rapid detour of the straight-moving troops. p>
This style of play requires a lot of courage, and it also requires the equipment of the troops, and even dares to confront a Japanese regiment that has an artillery squadron.
Fierce and vigorous.
He has the air of a general.
The former battalion commander of the Independent Regiment has gradually grown into a unique leader-level figure.
Chen Quan, the former commander of the second battalion of the Independent Regiment, known for his ability to use damaging tactics, is now the commander of the third independent regiment.
He blocked the Kawakami Regiment's combat deployment on the right-wing mountain road of Dafengzhuang, and his fighting style was different from Wang Leihu's.
On the third line of defensive positions, Shen Quan first ordered the soldiers to assume a posture of fighting to the death with the Japs.
He has the momentum to defend his position to the death.
After the battle broke out, the intensity of firepower erupted by the soldiers of the Third Independent Regiment behind the fortifications was truly ferocious.
The little devils who were attacking were also shocked.
Old Japanese Kawakami looked even more puzzled. This was also the main force of the Eighth Route Army.
How could the firepower of the Eighth Route Army in this third position suddenly increase so much?
But Kawakami did not back down because of this.
He looked through the binoculars at the Eighth Route Army troops who were relying on fortifications to launch a tenacious resistance on the third-line position.
First, he ordered a dozen artillery pieces from the artillery squadron to lock on to the defenses along the Eighth Route and conduct a plowing bombardment.
Anyway, his little devil has ample logistical support, and the shells fired seem to be free of charge.
Shen Quan, who saw that he had ordered to retreat to the safe distance behind the fortifications, could not help but feel sorry for the little devil.
"This little brat is so damn rich! If we can fight like this, what will happen to him?"
Shen Quan was sighing with emotion, risking his life, and the reconnaissance posts scattered on the forward fortifications quickly returned and reported:
"Reporting to the leader, during the Japanese bombardment, we detected that the Japanese vanguard troops were advancing rapidly, and they brought a large number of grenade launchers to follow the team!"
Chen Quan nodded: "The Japanese commander opposite is an expert at playing with cannons.
This is to first use large-caliber artillery to force us back directly from the position, assist the troops in advancing, and use grenade firepower to assist run-and-gun.
It’s a perfect connection. In this way, if we foolishly insist on holding on to our position, the casualties of the troops will definitely be huge.”
"Captain, what should we do now?" asked the battalion commander next to him.
Chen Quan laughed and said: "Silly boy, how can a living person be suffocated to death by peeing? The little devils think they have an advantage by using artillery. This is exactly what we want the little devils to believe."
"Immediately pass the order, all ministries abandon their three-line defensive positions, and we retreat to Dafengzhuang."
"Captain, these three-line defensive positions are our last defensive positions in the mountainous area. Are they just lost like this?"
Chen Quan said: "The position is dead, but the people are alive. Now we rush forward again and regain the position. Even if we repel the Japanese, the Japanese will rely on our position to defend. Our casualties will definitely be unavoidable. This is a loss-making business for us." You can’t do it.”
"But Dafeng Village only has a few houses and is not suitable for defense. If we retreat..." the first battalion commander hesitated.
Chen Quan smiled and said: "You need to use your brain and think about it carefully."
"You are right, Dafengzhuang is not suitable for defense. But what if we can frame the little Japs in and beat them up in Dafengzhuang?"
The first battalion commander was not a fool. After thinking for a while, he suddenly realized: "Captain, I understand what you mean. This is to deliberately lure the enemy deep into the camp and trick the Japanese into Dafengzhuang."
Hahaha——
"You've finally figured it out, so tell me what I'm going to do next?"
The first battalion commander thought for a moment and then said: "We will retreat to Dafeng Village and let the little devil watch us enter the village.
The Japanese will definitely follow them into the village, so we will use the secret tunnel that has been dug in the village to lead directly to the outside of the village, and first pretend to resist in the village.
After attracting all the main Japanese forces into Dafeng Village, they used a secret passage to withdraw from the village.
In turn, the Japanese troops were besieged in Dafengzhuang."
