"Sir, if we just let the Sixth Division pass in front of us, it would be too easy for them."
Lunch was steamed buns, and not only meat buns but also pickled cabbage soup from the supply camp were delivered.
Just as everyone was gathering around the table to eat, Yelena also ran back from outside.
As soon as I came in, I put a few bamboo buckets on the table.
"Eat, this is rice noodles, steamed pork, and egg soup. The old battalion commander gave me lunch."
Of course, Yelena is considered a guest of the paratrooper school, and she eats Xiao Zao like the wounded. Even the steamed buns she brought out were standard Xiaolong steamed buns, and the quantity was not much, only four.
It must be said that the old smoker Li Youtian was a guy who knew how to live a good life. When there was no war, in addition to dry rice with some meaty meat at noon, he would eat steamed buns and soup in the morning and evening.
As soon as we go to the battlefield, each person will have three steamed buns and a bowl of some kind of spicy soup, soy milk and other breakfasts in the morning and evening. At noon, they will have big meat buns. Basically, even a big boy can only fill his stomach with two small bowl-sized buns.
Can fill you up.
Especially the so-called meat filling, which is mixed with a considerable amount of flour and oil. The meat is fragrant when you take a bite, but when you chew it carefully, you find that there is not much meat at all.
Zhang Manna and Xu Wenqian were a little greedy when they looked at Yelena's steamed dumplings. As soldiers, they couldn't eat such exquisite food. Of course, they will only truly understand what delicious food is when they come to the paratrooper school.
Noticing this, Yelena smiled, took out two steamed buns from her four buns, and placed them in front of Zhang Manna and Xu Wenqian. After the two declined, Yelena looked at Zhang Sixing playfully,
"I can't eat so much meat. I have a fat girl's constitution. If I eat a little high-calorie food, I will get fat. Someone may not like it."
Zhang Sixing just pretended not to hear this and discussed the current situation with Hansen.
"Whether they come to attack in the afternoon or not, you and Hu Yang will be protected by the guard company, and bring a few 107s to surprise the Japanese who are taking a detour. Remember to fire a shot and change places..."
"Well, let's change places for a while... This is a good idea. When the sir is in Europe, the girls..."
Jason ate the buns and drank the pickled cabbage soup without paying attention, happily talking nonsense.
But then he felt the cold eyes, but it was not Zhang Sixing who was looking at him, but Yelena who had just finished PUAA. Two beautiful blue eyes released two sharp blades, as if they wanted to cut Zhang Sixing to pieces.
Seeing this scene, Hansen quickly changed the subject to the battlefield.
"Is four doors on one side enough? If it's missing, I'm afraid the Japanese won't have a long memory."
"Don't bring so many, just two doors on one side. Don't put one together, remember to shoot one...run away after shooting, don't leave them there to be bombed. Also, pay attention to air defense. I think the little Japanese will definitely be unkind if they don't hit us."
Zhang Sixing was very clear about the situation in front of him, and it was not yet time for their paratrooper school to really exert its strength.
Now is not the time to really exert force. Zhang Sixing estimates that even if he defends Niushou Mountain, it will not affect the Japanese attack on Jinling City, so he cannot let the Japanese know that he has ambushed people here. This is the real purpose of the Niushou Mountain tunnel.
After lunch, information from all aspects was quickly passed on.
There are reconnaissance teams far away from the road, "flying men" in the sky, and intelligence from periscope observation systems on the top of the mountain.
Sure enough, the situation on the battlefield at this moment was exactly what Zhang Sixing had guessed. Although the Sixth Division had divided its troops, there was still a large group of infantry building a defense line at the foot of Niushou Mountain.
Heavy artillery troops were deployed in the rear, but at this moment they did not bombard Niushou Mountain. Instead, they continued to use heavy artillery to cover the two sides to bombard the Dashengguan defense line in the west and the Heding Bridge position in the east.
In fact, except for the plains in the direction of Dashengguan, the east side is surrounded by Jiangjun Mountain in front of and behind Guanyin Mountain, and further east is the Qinhuai River. It is actually a series of hills and river network areas.
In his previous life, Zhang Sixing once read a discussion on the Internet. Someone asked if volunteers came to guard Jinling...
Then the Japanese might not be able to leave!
The southern front used tunnel warfare to pinpoint the hilly areas, and let the Japanese enter the flatter areas in the east. With heavy troops hidden in the Ningzhen Mountains and Maoshan Mountains, they besieged the Japanese 16th Division that broke in from the eastern plains.
One thing that is certain is that the Japanese definitely do not have Van Fleet's ability. Even if they have that ability, they will still be ineffective in the tunnel battle of the Volunteers. So don't expect them to be able to capture the mountains defended by the Volunteers. There is no possibility.
.
As for the Japanese 16th Division, which is sandwiched between two mountain ranges, it will be even more difficult to defeat than the US 1st Cavalry Division.
You must know that the 1st U.S. Cavalry Division huddled together to defend, and finally escaped. The Japanese 16th Division was definitely eaten during the offensive process and in mobile combat.
If the Japanese Sixth Division on the southern front breaks through in the narrow strip between Niushou Mountain and the Yangtze River, the volunteers may have to drive them into the river to feed the fish overnight.
To be honest, comparing the volunteers who "beat the Seventeen-Nation Allied Forces with sticks" and the Japanese at this time are just adults beating children and there is no comparison at all.
To be honest, "Commander Tang Monk" Tang Shengzhi did not have the commanding ability, and the troops that retreated from the Songhu battlefield did not have morale and well-trained combat literacy at all. This was the fundamental reason why the Jinling defense battle was quickly defeated and resulted in bitter consequences.
.
However, if there is no possibility of war... even if Zhang Sixing appears here, it is still impossible to change the course of history. But the ratio of casualties and exchanges will definitely be different.
In the afternoon, some troops of the 6th Division began to approach Jiangjun Mountain where the first part of the 58th Division was stationed.
Outside the machine gun fire range of the Niushou Mountain position, the infantry of the Japanese 6th Division moved in a broad direction toward Jiangjun Mountain. Hansen, who received Zhang Sixing's order, took two "107 high-level dual-purpose rocket launchers" to hide on the top of the mountain.
He took out his binoculars and looked at the mountain running towards the Hengshan Mountains in a detour, and was amazed.
"These fools have suffered enough at our hands. Brothers, let us lead the sheep away and teach these little dwarfs a severe lesson."
After speaking, Hansen waved to his subordinates behind him.
Behind him, a reconnaissance platoon of infantrymen protected two "107 high-level and flat dual-purpose rocket launchers" and slowly moved down the hillside.
The mountains here were not bombarded by the Japanese barrage, so the vegetation was lush, and no one could be seen moving on the mountains from a little distance.
After waiting for the predetermined position, Hansen took out the telescope again. Based on the divisions above, he determined the shooting distance and target and sighed slightly.
"Well, home-made weapons can be used on the battlefield. But I really look forward to what the commander will say, how much more powerful will the cannon made in Krupp be?"
If Zhang Sixing were here, he would definitely tell Hansen,
"When the range reaches ten kilometers, the number of submunitions carried by the rocket eggs in a salvo doubles."
