Liu Dazhu, however, continued to scan the cart queue back and forth with a telescope with a solemn expression on his face, and did not participate in the discussion among his subordinates.
In the past five years, as Liu Lang conquered east and west, Liu Dazhu was no longer the brute force of the leader five years ago, but a battalion-level major commander who could think from the overall perspective of the battlefield.
Liu Lang had issued military orders that he would rather sacrifice human lives than supplies. However, as one of the four infantry battalion commanders of the Independent Regiment and a high-level member of the Independent Regiment, he knew some secrets that his subordinates did not know.
This ambush battle in the mountainous area seems to have been basically successful and even the last battle. After losing more than 9,000 people, the Japanese army no longer has the strength to send reinforcements here. If nothing goes wrong, everyone can have a celebration banquet this evening. But, he
However, I know that there is no need to drink tonight's wine. Compared with the entire Shanxi front line, the entire war has just begun.
The main force of the Japanese army still exists, including more than half of the infantry brigade and Jingxing County, and even Shijiazhuang, 60 kilometers away from Jingxing County, where there are still thousands of Japanese troops. However, with so many Japanese troops, the regimental commander did not plan on
They all have battle plans to eliminate them in one fell swoop.
It is undoubtedly just a fantasy to rely on the independent regiment alone to have an army of three to four thousand men. Therefore, the regimental commander united all the troops that could be united, including the entire 129th Division of the Red Army that had been deceived into boarding the ship.
Although he has become one of the senior leaders of the independent regiment who is aware of the existence of red ideology and is willing to join, Liu Dazhu also knows that the 129th Division is a friendly force different from other friendly forces, but Liu Dazhu also knows that no matter how friendly the army is, if you want the horse to run away, you will not let the horse eat.
Damn, that's impossible.
To support this super war, the 129th Division and even the independent regiment must have enough ammunition supplies. Every batch of supplies seized will undoubtedly strengthen our own strength. Hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition, as well as the two thousand seized in this ambush battle,
Multiple rifles are enough to increase the combat effectiveness of more than 10,000 red troops by another 30%.
The increased combat effectiveness of friendly forces, in Tuanzuo’s terms, means that he does not have to rely on his health to gain the upper hand, but all of them can attack together. Although he does not quite understand Liu Tuanzuo’s unreasonable examples, Liu Dazhu knows that his side
The stronger the friendly forces are, it means that you don’t have to risk your life, and it also means that casualties are reduced. This is a virtuous circle that complements each other.
To put it bluntly, this batch of supplies is also very important to the Independent Regiment. Perhaps because of these, the Independent Regiment can save many lives.
Therefore, unlike the battalion deputy who cautiously respected military orders and bombarded the recalcitrant little Japanese to pieces with a few artillery shells, Liu Dazhu was now thinking about how to destroy this batch of baggage with the least casualties.
Grab it.
His eyes gradually came to rest on a Japanese soldier wearing a steel helmet behind the cart. Although this Japanese soldier did not have a command knife, white gloves, or even long military boots, he was hiding behind the cart on his waist that was occasionally exposed to the field of view of the telescope.
However, the pistol case in his hand told Liu Dazhu that he was a non-commissioned officer or officer above the level of Japanese Army Commander Cao.
Liu Dazhu, who has experienced several battles with the Japanese army, knows that the rules for distributing "Black Star" pistols to the independent regiments are similar. Except for second lieutenants and above, the Japanese army can also wear pistols, and senior non-commissioned officers and sergeants and some special forces can also wear pistols. However,
There are many local tyrants in the independent regiment. In addition to the squad leader, squad deputy, and machine gun team and rocket launcher team, ordinary soldiers in special arms such as artillery, engineers, and baggage soldiers can also be issued "Black Star" pistols.
Moreover, Liu Dazhu could basically tell through the eyes of most of the remaining Japanese troops looking in the direction of this Japanese soldier that this Japanese soldier should be the commander of this remaining Japanese army, and maybe an officer above second lieutenant.
As a commander, after retreating from the battlefield, he did not immediately hide in the stone mountain reserved for them to hide. Instead, he risked his life and body and hid behind the heavy baggage truck. This Japanese soldier was very cunning. He probably saw it.
I wanted to seize this batch of baggage and use it as a life-saving amulet.
"Have the several infantry squads responsible for clearing the remaining Japanese invaders on the mountain road returned to their positions?" Liu Dazhu put down the telescope in his hand and asked deputy battalion commander Wang Shubin in a deep voice.
"Three minutes ago, they sent the message and everyone is in place." Wang Shubin nodded, but there was a trace of worry on his face, "Batalion Commander, if we are just fighting in such close combat, there may be a lot of casualties! The battle in the valley is over.
It's estimated that the fight will take a while, but we still have to think of ways to lure those Japs into the mountains, so that we can get the best of both worlds."
"Lieutenant, you have a good plan. You want to devour this baggage in one go, and you want to wipe out all the little Japs without paying the price. However, you can't have your cake and eat it too. Sometimes you have to have your cake and eat it too."
You have to make a choice, even if you are not happy with this choice." Liu Dazhu slowly shook his head with a serious face and directly rejected Wang Shubin's proposal.
Wang Shubin, the cautious deputy battalion commander, blushed slightly. His family naturally knew about his family affairs. He fought well in the Great Wall Battle. After the war, he was promoted from a lieutenant to a captain, but he became one of the few who left the frontline combat troops.
One of the officers, I am afraid that it has something to do with him being too cautious and conservative when fighting with him. This time, after returning to the front-line army, it was probably the regimental commander who gave him another chance to learn from Liu Dazhu how to be a military commander.
Don't tell me, Wang Shubin, who went to the infantry school, was right. Liu Lang was really giving him a chance. It was a pity for this young captain, who was very stable and rarely made mistakes but had no great achievements, to stay in the rear as a guard, but he lacked decision-making.
Liu Lang was a little uneasy about asking him to be the military chief, so he simply transferred him to the Bayonet Battalion to become Liu Dazhu's deputy through the establishment of the security corps. He learned how to be a qualified military chief and how to make choices.
It is a great advantage to be able to calculate everything carefully and not pick up the pieces. However, if you cannot make a decisive decision and learn to make trade-offs, and you want to be greedy and have your cake and eat it too, in a rapidly changing battlefield, it is very likely that both the fish and the bear's paw will fly away.
Liu Lang was also helpless. The Independent Regiment was established five years ago. If you add the Northern Sichuan Security Regiment established under Liu Xiang's instruction, the number of controllable soldiers has reached more than 6,000, and the number of veterans who have survived the bloody battle has reached more than 2,000. The number of young people trained in the entire northern Sichuan
The strength can reach more than 100,000 people. It can be said that an independent regiment needs equipment and soldiers, but the biggest shortcoming is the officers.
Even now, 85% of the officers of the entire independent group system are promoted step by step by veterans, and less than 15% of the officers have attended regular military academies. Moreover, in the increasingly fierce battles
In the battle, the casualties of the officers who take the lead will definitely increase. Liu Lang urgently needs every officer to learn and improve so that they can take on heavy responsibilities in future battles and lead the soldiers to charge into battle, instead of ending up with no one available in the end.
The battle in Jindong is not a bloody battle at Niangziguan by the independent group, but rather a simulation test before the graduation exam, giving everyone a real feel and a chance to learn and improve.
The magnificent Anti-Japanese War has just begun, and there are countless battles involving hundreds of thousands of people waiting for them. Even in the Songhu War, which is coming to an end, Liu Lang has an intuition that he still has a chance to participate, as long as he
The battle in Jindong can be ended as soon as possible.
Nanjing has always been a hurdle that he cannot overcome.
Nearly 400,000 innocent souls seemed to be wailing to him across decades of time and space. Since he had come to this era by accident, he had to do something for them. Just like he once took off his military cap and stood silently with his head bowed.
As promised silently in front of the massacre monument with hundreds of thousands of names engraved on it.
"One day, I will wash away the shame you have experienced. If I can't do it, there are my children and my grandchildren. If I can't do it in a few decades, then it will take a hundred or a thousand years. This hatred will never be forgotten from generation to generation."
"However, the deputy battalion commander is right. We can't sacrifice the lives of our bayonet battalion officers and soldiers just for a batch of baggage. Therefore, we still have to think of a way." Give a sweet date a slap in the face, and Liu Dazhu starts now.
Now you know how to govern your subordinates.
"Battal Commander, what do you mean?" Although the first company commander suppressed the question, the subtext was, Battalion Commander, please don't lie.
"What I mean is that we need to let those little devils know that we don't care so much about the so-called baggage. The precious shells and bullets they think are nothing to us." Liu Dazhu narrowed his eyes slightly and ordered.
: "Fire platoon, prepare for rapid fire with four rounds of artillery. The kid who is shooting the sixteenth cart for me, remember, don't hit me too accurately. Stay ten meters away from him, or hit the deep ditch next to him.
Li is fine too.”
"Okay, battalion commander, take a look!" the battalion fire platoon commander over there replied loudly.
Following his order, the two mortar operators in the fire platoon who had moved the mortars here nervously adjusted the muzzles, and the observers even made gestures for a long time to ensure that the shells would not hit the target.
The cart and the Japanese behind it were blown to pieces.
It's easy to have sex without hitting the target, but it's very difficult if you're not far from the target. It's just like a man and a woman, the man is full of hypocrisy and says it's just as hard as he can't get in.
"Boom, boom, boom" four consecutive artillery shells exploded not far away from Ishida Inoue.
Two of them landed in a deep ditch five meters wide, and the muffled explosion made people go crazy. One landed on a rocky mountain eight or nine meters away from the cart. There was a burst of smoke and a painful howl.
The sound means that the heavy baggage soldiers hiding inside are in trouble.
Stone Mountain can withstand bullets, but it is helpless against mortar shells that fall from the sky and attack from almost no blind spots.
But what frightened the Japanese lieutenant the most was a bomb that exploded directly on the mountain road six meters away from him. Ishida Inoue, who had been lying on his stomach to avoid the first gunshot, although he was not hit by the air waves and shrapnel.
It didn't matter that the big car he was hiding in was shaken by the waves.
It was a cart he specially selected to transport cans. The cans filled with iron cans could withstand bullets, and he didn't have to worry about the ammunition exploding.
However, the big car 30 meters away cannot do it! It is full of infantry artillery and mountain artillery shells, at least 120 rounds. Once that thing explodes, Bah! There will be living people on the mountain road.
?
"What a fool, you scared me so much. Zhou Dahan, tell those bastards of yours to keep firing farther away from the No. 15 truck."
Not to mention the Japanese lieutenant who was under the artillery fire was so scared that his balls were broken. Even Liu Dazhu, who was holding a telescope on the mountain, couldn't help but wipe a cold sweat. The tarpaulin of the cart about 20 meters away from the shell explosion was exposed.
