He Shuya and Xu Rui have already arrived at the forward observation post of the Seventh Battalion.
The forward observation post of the Seventh Battalion was set up on a small dirt bag dozens of meters high. From this high position, one could have a panoramic view of an area of several kilometers in radius. Even the enemy's troop movements on the other side of the river were clearly visible. Of course, everything has advantages and disadvantages.
, the troop movements of their three regiments will also be clearly visible to the little devil.
However, He Shuya is not worried about this at all.
Nowadays, their three regiments have completely crushed any of the old regiments of the Little Devils in terms of equipment, training and individual soldier quality, let alone the temporary independent 13th brigade. What's more, they are still
Equipped with weapons such as rocket launchers and anti-infantry directional mines, the advantages are even greater!
So now He Shuya doesn't care about the troop deployment and the Japanese discover it.
Xu Rui was also observing the battle situation ahead, and found that the officers and soldiers of the Seventh Battalion were already very proficient in the use of the three-three system tactics. Even if they temporarily joined the rocket group, they were still operating smoothly. This could be clearly seen through the telescope.
It was seen that the commando team of the seventh battalion was still a group of three people, one person was the arrowhead and was responsible for the main attack, one person was on the flank and was responsible for covering, and the other person was slightly behind and was responsible for providing fire support.
Every three such combat groups form a combat assault group. Depending on the battlefield situation, they are either one in front and two in back, or two in front and one in back, or lined up in a row. They are changing formations at any time. The only thing that remains unchanged is that they always
Rushing forward, almost never stopping!
Only when encountering Japanese machine gun fire, the combat team will pause for a moment, and then quickly call in the rocket team. After one or two rockets, the Japanese machine gun fire is basically cleared, and then the combat team will continue to attack
forward, continue to squeeze the Japanese's deep defense line.
During this period, there was no counterattack from the Japanese.
The little Jaap was not a fool, and he did not just accept beatings stupidly. He would also invest troops from time to time and launch counterattacks.
However, the Japanese counterattack did not achieve any results, and instead wasted the already very scarce troops.
Xu Rui witnessed a Japanese counterattack through his telescope. Just now, the Japanese had invested at least one infantry squad, and almost fifty Japanese soldiers, bayonets in hand, opened up a relatively sparse line of skirmishers and headed towards
The assault group of the seventh battalion launched a fierce counterattack.
Facing the Japanese counterattack, the assault group of the Seventh Battalion did not panic at all.
The leader of the squad made a gesture, and the nine veterans from the three groups quickly took out a dark box-shaped object from their backpacks, then placed the dark box-shaped object on the position, and then
He turned around and retreated. In the blink of an eye, the nine veterans retreated fifty meters behind.
It can be vaguely seen that while retreating, nine veterans also pulled the line.
The squad leader who finally withdrew twisted the threads pulled by the other eight veterans together into a bundle, and then quietly waited for the arrival of the little Japs ahead.
In less than a moment, more than fifty Japanese soldiers rushed within fifty meters.
Then, the squad leader of the assault group gently pressed the detonator, and the next moment, the nine black box-shaped objects that they had installed on the position exploded with a bang.
The box-shaped object is the anti-infantry directional mine just produced by Dameishan Arsenal!
Nine anti-infantry directional mines exploded at the same time, and 18,000 small steel balls were released instantly, and without exception they all spattered in the direction of the Japs' advance.
That picture is simply too beautiful!
That scene is simply too spectacular!
But I saw more than fifty Japanese soldiers who were charging forward with bayonets and fell to the ground at the same time. They either covered their faces, held their heads, or held their chests, abdomen or even lower body, and screamed in agony.
The most recent one was even directly shot into a sieve by hundreds of steel balls. This anti-infantry directional mine is so powerful!
Immediately afterwards, the assault group that retreated slightly rushed forward again.
When passing by the Japs who were lying on the ground and wailing, the nine veterans of the assault group did not even squint their eyes, because it was not their mission to clean the battlefield and give the Japs a last hit! Their mission was just one, move forward, move forward, and continue to move forward.
forward and penetrate the little devil's defense line in the shortest possible time!
Xu Rui took a deep breath, put down the telescope and said to He Shuya: "Shuya, did you find anything?"
He Shuya nodded lightly and replied: "Commander, I found that there are still flaws in the cooperation between the rocket team and the assault group, and there is still some disconnect in the middle, so I have an idea."
Xu Rui smiled slightly and asked, "Say."
He Shuya pondered and said: "Commander, can you cancel the establishment of the infantry and artillery battalion, and increase the number of rocket launchers by half, so that each platoon can be equipped with a rocket group, then during daily training, I will
If we can carry out coordinated infantry and arrow penetration drills in a targeted manner, combat effectiveness can be greatly improved!"
Xu Rui shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You think I don't want to?"
As a portable individual support firepower, rocket launchers have not been separately organized since the day they came out. They are all directly equipped to front-line units. However, the number of rocket launchers produced now is limited, and 80% of them are still required by the No. 3 head of the military department.
I had to ask for it, so Xu Rui came up with such a system.
After a pause, Xu Rui added, "Let's talk about this later."
"Okay." He Shuya said, "But you have to remember this."
"Remember." Xu Rui said with a smile, "When the arsenal's production capacity increases, I will definitely give you three regiments enough rocket launchers. By then, it will not be one rocket launcher for each platoon, but one for each squad!"
"Really?" He Shuya was overjoyed when he heard this.
(Dividing line)
He Shuya was overjoyed, but Ozaki Yoshiharu was about to cry.
Since five minutes ago, bad news has been spreading back to the brigade headquarters from the front line.
"Report, the defense line of the Fourth Infantry Squadron of the First Infantry Brigade has been breached!"
"Report, the 1st Infantry Squadron of the 2nd Infantry Battalion organized a counterattack, but an infantry squad that participated in the counterattack was attacked by an unknown weapon of the Chinese Army and was collectively shattered!"
"Report, the independent cavalry squadron was ambushed by unknown weapons and was collectively shattered!"
"Report, the headquarters of the 1st Infantry Battalion was under artillery fire, and the captain, Major Takehara Tama, is broken!"
…
Bad news came back one after another, and a large amount of cold sweat broke out on Ozaki Yoshiharu's forehead.
Before this, Ozaki Yoshiharu really didn't pay much attention to the Dameishan Independent Group, but now, Ozaki Yoshiharu even regrets it in his intestines. The Dameishan Independent Group is really powerful. If I had known this, in the
When we first discovered the Dameishan Independent Regiment, we should have reduced our troops immediately. In this case, concentrating the troops of one brigade might still be able to support it.
But now, it was too late to regret it. Ozaki Yoshiharu could only hope that reinforcements would arrive as soon as possible.
"Reinforcements? Yes, reinforcements!" Ozaki Yoshiharu's eyes flashed with hope, and he hurried into the communications office.
"Get off!" Ozaki Yoshiharu pushed away the soldier guarding the telephone switchboard, picked up the phone and yelled, "Hurry up and get me to Ping An Town, yes, Ping An Town!"
"When will the Fifth Infantry Battalion arrive?"
"What? We just set off five minutes ago?"
"Baga, why did you wait until now to set off?"
"Maxi Masi, Yangcun stronghold? Where is Takeshita-san?"
"Takeshita-san already led his troops to leave half an hour ago? Yossi!"
"Maxi Masi, Anle Town stronghold? When will the third infantry brigade arrive?"
"Baga, it's been so long and your third brigade hasn't finished gathering yet?"
"What? The Fourth Infantry Squadron stationed at the Xiaochenzhuang stronghold hasn't arrived yet? Baga Yalu, don't wait any longer. Hurry up and bring the assembled troops to the county seat. Hurry, immediately!"
Ozaki Yoshiharu called more than a dozen large bases in Tianchang County one by one, and the results were not optimistic.
Putting down the phone, Ozaki Yoshiharu immediately walked to the radio station and said to the radio operator: "Immediately call the 12th Army Headquarters and tell them that the situation in Tianchang County is critical and request the independent mixed 14th Brigade and Regiment stationed in Xuyi.
The Fifth Division stationed in Yangzhou provides emergency reinforcements, and also requests emergency fire support from the Third Aviation Regiment..."
"Hai!" the radio operator paused, and hurriedly started sending the message.
(Dividing line)
Ozaki Yoshiharu's request for reinforcements quickly reached the 12th Army Headquarters.
Itagaki Seishiro just returned to the headquarters after participating in an event. Before the old Japanese could sit down and take a sip of water, the Chief of Staff of the Twelfth Army Aoki Shigemako hurried in.
"Your Excellency, Commander!" Aoki Shigesei said in a deep voice with a sharp pause, "The independent 13th Brigade is in urgent need of a call!"
"The 13th independent mixed brigade?" Itagaki Seishiro unbuttoned the collar buckle, and then remembered that the independent mixed 13th brigade in Tianchang County was being attacked by Xu Rui's Dameishan independent group, because Itagaki Seishiro had no idea at all
I never thought there would be any problems in Tianchang County, so I didn’t take it to heart.
At that moment, Itagaki Seishiro asked: "Remember, Xu Rui's Dameishan Independent Regiment seems to be attacking Tianchang County. Has the result been achieved? Qingmu-san, looking at your appearance, does it mean that the Dameishan Independent Regiment has broken through?
A blockade trench? Just break through, it’s no big deal, it’s just a blockade trench.”
"That's not the case." Aoki Shigemao shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Your Excellency, Commander, in fact, the Dameishan Independent Regiment has already reached outside Tianchang County and defeated the First Infantry Brigade of the 13th Independent Brigade.
, Ozaki-san just sent an urgent message, requesting the headquarters to urgently send reinforcements and dispatch aviation troops to provide air support!"
"What did you say?" Itagaki Seishiro was shocked when he heard this, and shouted wildly, "The Dameishan Independent Regiment has already reached outside Tianchang County? Not only that, but also defeated the first brigade of the independent 13th Brigade?
Ozaki Yoshiharu not only requested troop reinforcements, but also requested aviation to provide air fire support?"
