At this time, the adjutant shouted indifferently: "Sir, our attacking troops went up to fight, we won!"
The captain couldn't hold it back, his anger suddenly burst out, and he yelled: "Did we kill that? It was obviously the Eighth Route Army that gave up the mountain pass on its own initiative. We just took an advantage, and not to mention that not a single Eighth Route Army was killed in the entire attack.
The attacking troops also lost more than ten warriors under their shelling!"
"Also, in order to capture this mountain pass that was not defended by the Eighth Route Army, we just spent at least twenty minutes!"
"Including the time spent in the first attack, the mountain pass in front of us blocked us for a full hour!"
"You know what's most important to us right now?"
"It's not about how many Eighth Route Army troops were killed on the battlefield, it's about time!"
"The brigade headquarters is in danger. The longer we delay here, the more dangerous the brigade headquarters will be!"
"Now the Eighth Route Army relied on a mountain pass to block us for an hour, and finally retreated completely!"
"Even if they lost a lot of troops in the battle just now, and the mountain pass was finally occupied by us, they won this battle and we lost because they completed their combat purpose and dragged us here and were too slow.
How fast we reinforce Lingqiu!"
"Taking a step back, if we finish reinforcing the brigade headquarters, the brigade commander will die in the battle! Even if we kill the independent regiment on the battlefield and avenge the brigade commander, this battle will still be of great significance to our independent brigade.
It’s a losing battle!”
After a series of questioning, the excited expression on the adjutant's face immediately disappeared. And he was scolded bloody!
Standing in front of the captain, head lowered, not knowing what to do next!
The captain became angry again and continued to curse: "Baga, why are you still standing here?"
"Didn't you understand what I just said? Our first priority now is to get to Lingqiu City as quickly as possible to reinforce the brigade leader!"
"I was wasted here for an hour just now. I must find a way to get back the lost hour!"
"The troops gathered immediately, quickly passed the mountain pass, and then marched back to Lingqiu to aid!"
From Zhouzhuang, which is less than five kilometers away from Lingqiu, Li Hao led his troops to march all the way to get here!
This is the only way for the Japs to clear up the troops in the middle road. Li Hao was attracted by the terrain here as soon as he arrived!
He made a decisive decision: "The troops stop advancing, we will fight the Japanese here and return to reinforce the troops!"
The third battalion commander, Huang Sheng, was stunned. When he saw that there was flat ground for at least two kilometers outside Zhuangzi, he shouted in disbelief!
"Captain, the outside of Zhuangzi is flat, how can we fight an ambush!"
Li Hao replied with a serious face: "Who told you that I was going to ambush the Japanese!"
"There are almost 1,500 Japanese soldiers returning to support, and how many of us are there! With just this amount of troops to fight an ambush, no matter how good the terrain is, the pocket array we prepared can only hold two Japanese infantry squadrons. I don't think so.
It is simply impossible to wipe out all the Japanese reinforcements!"
Li Hao's words confused Huang Sheng again!
Besides laying an ambush, he really couldn't think of any other way to deal with so many Japanese and puppet troops at once!
Staring at Li Hao, he asked: "Then how are we going to fight? Our total strength is only 800 people, which is exactly half of the Japanese and puppet troops returning to support! The disparity in strength is too great. If we want to kill them in a short time,
This is so difficult!”
"Besides, the outside of Zhuangzi is flat, so it's not suitable for ambush or ambush. It's even harder to kill them here!"
"No, this is not difficult, it is simply impossible!"
"The flat terrain is not conducive to our fighting, but it is very beneficial to the Japanese!"
"Not only can we deploy our troops better outside the village, but we also have a large enough place to give full play to our firepower and equipment advantages, so that we can fight against us on the battlefield!"
The faces of several subordinates suddenly became ugly and became more and more solemn. No one was optimistic about the upcoming blocking battle!
At the critical moment, Li Hao spoke!
"Captain Huang, you are right. The terrain here is indeed more conducive to the Japs, but don't forget that our independent regiment also has a cavalry battalion. The flat terrain is also conducive to cavalry assaults!"
"I can tell you for sure: in this next battle, the infantry will be a supporting role, while the cavalry and artillery are the real protagonists!"
"The key to whether we can kill the Japanese reinforcements lies with them!"
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, I will start arranging combat missions now, everyone should seize the time to repair the position and prepare to face the little Japanese reinforcements!"
"Cavalry Battalion, Guard Company, have you seen the mountains to the east outside the village? Set out now and lurk inside. When you see the three signal flares I fired, attack immediately and kill the people gathered in the open space outside the village.
Japanese and puppet troops!”
"You decide the specific direction of the attack yourself. Attack wherever the Japs have weak defenses!"
"But no matter where the attack comes from, the cavalry battalion must separate a company to attack the Japanese artillery positions and kill them at all costs!
"The Japanese wanted to return to Lingqiu to aid, but were suddenly blocked by us. Their attention must have been on the blocking troops, and they must not have thought that there would be enemies behind them, so the defenses behind them would definitely be very lax, and they might not be able to defend themselves.
possible!"
"The cavalry battalion suddenly comes out and directly attacks the back. It will definitely catch them off guard!"
"The guard company followed closely, occupying the Little Japs' artillery position first, and then followed the cavalry into the Little Japs' team. They went to kill wherever there were many Japs, completely disrupting more than a thousand Japs!"
"Other troops will rely on the village to carry out frontal defense with me!"
"Although we are supporting roles, our tasks are also very heavy!"
"The first thing to do is to attract the enemy's attention to us, let them completely expose their backs to the cavalry battalion, and create opportunities for the cavalry battalion to attack!"
"Especially the Japanese machine gun squadron, the cavalry is most afraid of the heavy machine gun!"
"We must use our blockade to force the Japanese to move the heavy machine gun squadron in front of us to prevent him from threatening the cavalry battalion!"
"Second, use the artillery and heavy machine guns we brought to try to kill as many Japanese as possible through blocking battles to reduce the assault pressure on the cavalry battalion and guard company!"
"Third, find a way to kill the Japanese cavalry squadron!"
"The Japs have a cavalry squadron. In order for the cavalry battalion to successfully attack and match the enemy on the battlefield, this cavalry squadron that may cause trouble must be killed first!"
"Flat terrain is suitable for cavalry assaults. We understand it, and so do the Japanese!"
"So I judge that when faced with our blocking force, the first thing the Japanese thought of was to have the cavalry squadron launch an assault on us. An attack would break through our defense line!"
"What we need to do is use this opportunity to kill the Japanese cavalry squadron at once!"
"No more nonsense, time is limited, let's start taking action!"
