War of Resistance

Chapter 1364 The Battle of Yellow Sand

In a sense, Amakasu Shigetaro's underestimation of the enemy is indeed a good thing. After all, it is a blessing for me to underestimate the enemy.

Different from the national army's tight gongs and drums, the Japanese army's advancing pace seems to be like a spring outing-although the queue is not scattered, the ease on their faces is vivid, and even the division commander did not think of this battle. Take it to heart, what are they afraid of?The Central Army of the China Army is not that scary...

Yes, the change in attitude of the No.30 Third Division is due to the strategic change of Commander Neiji Okamura. From the perspective of the No.30 Third Division, they may have served as the main attacking force, but now they are partial divisions. The kind that can't attract the main force of the enemy army...

If you can fight, you can fight, if you can't fight, you should retreat first and then plan for a fighter...

You guessed right, this is the legendary soy sauce...

……

"One, two!"

"One, two!"

"One, two!"

The instructors from the engineering company are constantly instructing the officers and soldiers of the infantry battalions of the first guard regiment to dig trenches.

Yes, although the engineering battalion of the guard force has been established, it is still essentially composed of the engineering companies of the three guard regiments, and the engineering battalion of the headquarters is indeed an empty shell.

Regarding this situation, don't the "Three Musketeers" Zhang Tianhai, Zhou Fangjie, and Li Yinglun really want to solve it immediately?I really want to, and there is really no way.

Why is there no way to be a direct descendant of the direct descendants of the Central Army?Leaving aside the staffing aspect, the guard force of the Ninth War Zone has already been fully staffed and cannot be fully staffed. The shortage of technical personnel is another big problem-soldiers are easy to recruit, but qualified engineering officers are not easy trick.

Of course, there are difficulties and solutions, but it is impossible to highlight them immediately—in order to solve the immediate predicament, Zhang Tianhai and Li Yinglun were present at the engineering battalion in the early military regular meeting. The solution to the battalion problem must be divided into three steps: first, the engineering company of the first security regiment and the engineering company of the second security regiment will each expand an engineering platoon on the basis of the existing base; second, the third security regiment The engineering company must form a combat capability as soon as possible, so as not to hold back the entire army; third, the engineering battalion under the general headquarters first set up two shelf platoons, and at the same time keep looking for officers who appear in the engineering army, and find a way to dig into the engineering battalion.

Although the effect of doing this is quite slow, there is no other way. After the engineering company of the third security regiment has formed combat effectiveness, there will be four to five engineering platoons in the engineering battalion, and some backbones will be transferred to supplement them. At least there will be six With one engineer platoon, two engineer companies can be formed. Only then will the engineer battalion be truly established.

"Head Guo, this progress may still be a bit slow..." Li Yinglun frowned slightly. He also watched his brothers working hard, but he still felt that it was a bit slow—tomorrow at the latest At noon, the troops of the No.30 Third Division of the Japanese Army will appear in their combat vision.

"Chief of the General Staff, there is no way around this. The brothers are already fully fired. Anyway, this is only the position of two battalions. It is already extremely difficult to arrange two battalions in such a narrow distance. Yes. The depth of the strategy and the secrecy of the position must be combined." Guo Qiliang wrinkled a bitter face.

"If it doesn't work, let's do it like this. Let's let one of the vanguard troops of the Japanese army pass, and then your two battalions will pinch their throats in the middle, so that they can't take care of both ends." Li Yinglun said on a whim .

"Chief of the General Staff, according to the commander-in-chief's intention, our two battalions plus the troops behind will eat their first part first, and then the two battalions in front will retreat." Guo Qiliang smiled bitterly after listening. thick.

"It means that my words are not easy to use now?" Li Yinglun was a little displeased, because since he became the chief of staff of this army, the main personnel of the theater security force are basically Zhang Tianhai's people. Recognize Zhang Tianhai's order, and the orders of others are not easy to use.

"That's not what it means, because according to the commander-in-chief's expectation, our first battle is to eat the enemy's first part and then retreat. He also gave this order to the humble officer before he set off. If we eat the enemy's middle One, we can also do it, but the first and third battalions will be gone, and our troops will be flanked by the Japanese army." Guo Qiliang explained the reason.

After listening to Guo Qiliang's explanation, Li Yinglun's face finally softened a little. He nodded and said, "Okay, very good. Let's do it like this!"

"Thank you, sir, for understanding!" Guo Qiliang said seriously.

Li Yinglun nodded lightly and did not speak again. In fact, from his point of view, the first regiment of security guards was Zhang Tianhai's starting unit after all. The prestige of the army also knows that Zhang Tianhai attaches great importance to this army. If his blind command causes heavy losses to the First Guard Regiment, then his relationship with Zhang Tianhai will definitely deteriorate sharply. More importantly, he He was about to be transferred from the theater security force, and he didn't want to offend Zhang Tianhai at this point in time.

The reason why Li Yinglun wanted to leave the theater security force was simple: first, the future of the theater security force limited his room for advancement, and the position of military chief would not be reserved for Li Yinglun; Make way, He Jiye is Minister He's nephew after all, and if He Jiye wants to seek promotion, Li Yinglun must leave his current position. Instead of leaving when Minister He finds him, it is better to leave now, at least he has a choice.

So, just like that, the battle design of the first guard regiment was implemented according to Zhang Tianhai's will.

So here comes the question, since Zhang Tianhai has already made up his mind, why did he let Li Yinglun come over to be the "supervisor"?The reason is also very simple. At least one more person came here to watch, and he felt relieved. After all, Li Yinglun still has real skills, and he also gave many useful suggestions on combat planning.

Look at the second regiment of guards.

As the deputy chief and head of the second regiment of the guard, Zhou Fangjie commanded his troops very hard. His troops are setting up positions around the only way from Huangsha Town to Pingjiang County.

It has to be said that Zhou Fangjie is quite motivated now - after his second guard regiment was merged into the battle order of the theater guard force, the combat effectiveness has risen in a straight line, both in terms of the quality of the soldiers and the weapons and equipment. Great improvements, especially the continuous enrichment of the ranks of officers, are making this army continue to improve.

The only thing that makes Zhou Fangjie feel a little pity is that his second guard regiment is also set up as a reinforced regiment, and the troops are only set up with four battalions. Even if the troops directly under the regiment headquarters are barely five battalions, compared The big brother-level troops of the first regiment are still a bit far behind.

"Our regiment now has a company of guards, a company of special agents, and a company of engineers. Brother Ziqi, you should keep an eye on it. After this battle, our regiment has to find a way to expand the armed forces of a battalion, otherwise it will be too much for us." We're behind." Zhou Fangjie instructed Liu Ziqi, acting team leader.

"Where is the commander-in-chief?" Liu Ziqi asked weakly.
