War of Resistance

Chapter 1372 The Battle of the Yellow Sand ([-])

"What Kameda-kun said is very reasonable, so let's do it!" Akita Oki nodded in satisfaction, "Go and deliver my order immediately!"

Soon, a Japanese squadron of about [-] people began to bypass Huang Xiangsan's outer positions and advance along the hillside of the Huangsha Basin.

Looking at the scene in front of him through the binoculars, Gu Shi'an was uncertain: the remaining two battalions under his command were arranged on both sides of Huangsha Town, and as long as he wanted, he could sneak attack on the part in Huangsha Town. It is not difficult for the Japanese army to attack from inside and outside, and it is not difficult to defeat the Japanese army in one fell swoop, but he is afraid that his move will destroy the overall plan of the commander-in-chief, but what is the overall plan of the commander-in-chief?
"Send the report and ask the commander-in-chief immediately. He said that there is a chance to wipe out half of the Japanese brigade. Whether the main force of the tiger's den will attack. Please give instructions." Gu Shi'an said.

"Yes! Group seat!" The telegraph operator responded.

……

About 5 minutes later, the telegram replied: Please ask Commander No. [-] for instructions.

After seeing this reply, Gu Shi'an immediately asked the telegrapher to send a telegram to Zhou Fangjie, asking for instructions to fight.

Different from Zhang Tianhai's reply, Zhou Fangjie's telegram only had one word: Hit!

After receiving Zhou Fangjie's order, Gu Shi'an made a decisive decision and immediately ordered the troops to enter a combat state, ready to copy the Japanese army's retreat at any time.

Gu Shi'an is not a fool, on the contrary, he is very clever. After he gave the order to prepare for battle, he did not launch an attack immediately. He was waiting for the best opportunity. He had to annihilate the enemy with the most relaxed posture. military!
……

As the saying goes, the praying mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind, and the Japanese army who is outflanking at the foot of the mountain is thinking about attacking Huangsha Town, while the national army on the mountain is aiming at the back of the Japanese army at the foot of the mountain...

For Kenjiro Ohara, it is undoubtedly a great thing that Captain Akita gave him the opportunity to lead a surprise attack. He must make contributions, otherwise he would be sorry for the high hopes placed by His Excellency Captain...

"Go forward!" Kenjiro Ohara was waving his hands, and the personnel of the troops below were advancing rapidly.

However, all this did not escape the eyes of the officers and soldiers of the national army.

Lin Zhenda was the company commander of the [-]nd Battalion and [-]st Company of the [-]rd Security Regiment. His task was to lead the two platoons below to guard the rear line of defense and prevent the Japanese invaders from attacking here.

"Company Commander, Little Japan is sneaking over now, shall we give them a hard time?" The squad leader next to him asked Lin Zhendao.

"Wait! Let's fight again when they get closer." Lin Zhenda looked at the distant mountain with deep eyes.

"Yes, company commander." The squad leader responded.

Lin Zhenda also knew that if he relied on his own strength alone, he would inevitably fall into a hard fight with these Japanese troops. If he guessed correctly, the formation of the devils on the opposite side should be around a squadron, and the number should also be 181 or so. Even fewer, and because our side was transferred to two platoons, there were only about [-] people in our side. Facing the Japanese army with stronger firepower and numbers than our own, our side was at a disadvantage.

You must know that not all of Lin Zhenda's two platoons aimed their guns at the Japanese troops outside, only about half of the personnel pointed their guns at the Japanese troops outside, which also led to a sharp increase in the pressure on the defense line.

It is worth mentioning here that in order to strengthen the combat effectiveness of each unit, Zhang Tianhai tried every means to enrich the grassroots forces, especially at the company and platoon level.

There are 11 people at the first level of the squad, which is understandable. In order to strengthen the soldiers of the first-line troops, Zhang Tianhai can expand the original three squads in a row to four squads in a row, and expand the original three squads in a row. It has been strengthened to four platoons in a row. If not, the three regiments of the guard force will be caught in an asymmetrical battle with the Japanese army in all aspects.

What is asymmetric warfare?In Zhang Tianhai's eyes, the Japanese army was superior to his own in terms of weapons and equipment, as well as the quality of soldiers. If they were not as numerous as the Japanese army, then they would be suppressed and beaten!
If you want to win, you must use a strange move, at least to be relatively equal to the Japanese army in terms of grassroots combat power.

It is precisely because of the implementation of this policy that the number of the third security regiment, which should have been barely more than 400, has expanded to more than 300.

Of course, the implementation of this policy is mainly due to the example of the First Guard Regiment and the Second Guard Regiment, because the first two regiments are reinforced regiments, and most of the officers are from the German Armed Forces of the First Guard Regiment. Therefore, under the support of various factors, the expansion of the guard force of the ninth theater is also unstoppable.

The balance of all victories seemed to be tilting in the direction of the Japanese army, and even Kenjiro Ohara had a smile on his face.

Just when Kenjiro Ohara yelled to charge, shocks happened!

"Boom!!!"

"Boom!!!"

"Boom!!!"

……

One after another, Japanese soldiers were attacked by landmines... oh no, it was booby traps!
As one of the security forces of the Ninth Theater, the Third Guard Regiment has already learned the tricks of the Engineer Battalion of the Theater Guard, even though the Third Guard Regiment is the lowest-ranked unit among the security forces.

This is why Zhang Tianhai had to set up engineering companies for all three regiments at that time, and why these three engineering companies had to be temporarily formed into an engineering battalion. The purpose was to spread these enemy-killing techniques in this way!At the same time, in order to maintain the existence of the engineering battalion, Zhang Tianhai also ordered people to organize some backbone forces to form an engineering company directly under the headquarters of the security force, and the designation was also attached to the engineering battalion of the security force.

Well, yes, because the security forces in the theater are indeed constantly increasing their combat power, and they have won many victories. In addition to fighting hard, the Chief of the Ninth Theater has always been open-minded about the expansion of the security forces. Turn a blind eye-because they also need a fighting force to win the battle for them!
"Stop moving forward!!" Ohara Kenjiro made a decisive decision. He really wanted to rely on a surprise attack to establish a miracle, but now it seems impossible-because their opponents have already prepared, and what they are preventing is their sudden attack. Attack!
Since it is no longer possible to make meritorious deeds by surprise attack, it can only be done slowly, because the explosion sound just now must have alarmed the enemies in the room area, and they will not let themselves come in so easily!
Looking at this scene through the binoculars, Gu Shi'an breathed a sigh of relief, and he said to the battalion commander next to him: "First battalion commander, you take a company of troops to attack the backs of this group of Japanese soldiers, remember, you guys You have to get close to them and fight again. Now the attention of this group of Japanese troops is on Huangsha Town. They have suffered a lot now, and they will be more careful in the next attack. When they attack Huangsha Town with all their strength, you will treat them Attack from the back! Go secretly, don't disturb the enemy!"

"Yes! Regiment!" Cheng Pinnian, the commander of the first battalion, responded.

Looking at the cautious Japanese army, a smile appeared on the corner of Gu Shi'an's mouth: Since you dare to come, then you are ready to be a sandwich biscuit. What do you mean by being attacked?Find out soon!
