War of Resistance

Chapter 692 Spearhead?

"Tuan Zuo, tell me, didn't we fight too aggrieved in this battle?" Liu Houming, who was sitting next to Zhang Tianhai, said, as before, he was still the confidant of Zhang Yulin and Zhang Da.

"Where there is victory, there will be defeat. Let's calm down. It's just that I underestimated our enemy..." Zhang Tianhai sighed and lit a cigarette.

In his previous life, Zhang Tianhai never smoked, whether it was out of consideration for his own health or the discipline of the army.

But in this era, it won't work. Zhang Tianhai doesn't want to, he just wants to make his mind more clear-in this era, and it's the frontline battlefield, there are not so many things on the frontline battlefield to wake him up. The brain is probably the only thing left is cigarettes.

Before he knew it, he already had a slight craving for cigarettes.

"Underestimated? Where did you say that?" Liu Houming asked. It was the first time he heard such words from Tuan Zuo. Regarding his impression of Tuan Zuo, other than "military capable man" and "God of War" Words like ", based on his poor cultural foundation, there is no better word to describe Zhang Tianhai.

"Yes, I underestimated..." Zhang Tianhai didn't shy away, and breathed out a puff of smoke, "I still underestimated the people of the world, thinking that a third battalion can guard the city of Lanfeng. It's a pity that our people, It's still too little. If our army could be as strong as a division, then this kind of situation probably wouldn't happen."

"That's also because of the small number of our troops. What happened to the underestimation of the enemy?" Liu Houming asked in confusion.

Zhang Tianhai gave a wry smile, and then said: "It's an underestimation. If I hadn't underestimated the strength of the Japanese army, I shouldn't have placed the third battalion in Lanfeng, which is the most capable of fighting in the first regiment. Now it's all right, the third battalion directly It's gone, and we ourselves have suffered heavy casualties."

"It's not your fault. If the No.80 Eighth Division hadn't withdrawn from Lanfeng, the Third Battalion wouldn't have been wiped out." Liu Houming said a word of conscience.

"If you put one more battalion in, plus your special agent company and cavalry battalion, it is enough. Unfortunately, in order to prevent the officers from finding out, I only left one battalion as the city defense force, otherwise it would be impossible. It's a waste of time to fetch water." Zhang Tianhai said with a wry smile, regarding the result of this battle, he seemed very calm and calm, but he would not tell others about the self-blame in his heart.

The lives of more than 600 elite soldiers were not wiped out because of the failure to perform the rear mission, but because there were not enough troops and because the commander did not think clearly.

On this point, Zhang Tianhai deserves to blame himself to the end.

"Tuan Zuo, please don't say that. If it comes to the death of the whole battalion in the third battalion, Lao Wang and I are also responsible. If our troops can come faster, maybe Lanfeng City won't fall. It's so fast." After speaking, Liu Houming slightly lowered his head, also full of self-blame.

"Even if you go faster, it won't change the situation of the battle. What the third battalion lacks is the defense troops, not the support troops. Their strength is not even enough to guard every gate. The existence of your rapid support troops , but to help them contain the momentum of the enemy's attack outside the city. Once the city is broken, nothing will help." Zhang Tianhai said calmly.

But what Zhang Yulin never imagined was that it happened that because of his act of ordering the third battalion to enter the city to defend it, some people actually started thinking about it.

Of course, Zhang Tianhai was still waiting for the order to counterattack at this time.

As for the replenishment of weapons and personnel, it will definitely not come so fast, and the rest can only be found by themselves.

For some unknown reason, Zhang Tianhai actually ordered all the student soldiers in the teaching platoon to be transferred to the combat units, and together with the gendarmerie and the remnants of the three main infantry battalions, they formed a temporary combat formation.

As for the commander of this formation, Li Chunfei, the commander of the first battalion, was the commander of the first battalion, and Han Xingle, the commander of the fourth battalion, was the deputy commander.

There is no way, now the battalion commanders of the four main infantry battalions are killed and the other injured, and they are the only two who can support the overall situation.

In other aspects, we can only wait for a while, after all, many things are uncertain now, everything is changing, changing, changing!

In the next battle, whether to go to the battlefield or to fight a cruel battle is still a huge question mark.

All of this made Zhang Tianhai feel a sentence very clearly - people are in the Jianghu, and they can't help themselves!

Now that he has been deeply integrated into this era, he can only follow the trend of this era. He is neither a big man nor has anything particularly powerful. The only useful thing is those in his mind about commanding operations and theoretical knowledge of special operations.

Theoretically speaking, based on his familiarity with firearms, as long as he has enough conditions, he can draw drawings of AK-47, Type 81 rifles, even Type 95 assault rifles and Type 88 sniper rifles.

However, in this era of extremely scarce materials, in this impoverished country ravaged by war, are there so many good things for him to "design" and manufacture these things?

Even at this time, the German army, MP40 submachine guns began to popularize, let alone poor and weak China.

Many things are not applicable in every era and every period-it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice!

Therefore, Zhang Tianhai must follow the trend and rules of this era to play, otherwise, he and the First Regiment directly under his command in the Third War Zone will have to pay a huge price!
……

While Zhang Tianhai was still making plans for the formation of the troops and the next battle, within the national army, a storm of accountability for the loss of Lan Feng began to unfold.

It is true that the Operation Office of the National Army Command has already begun to plan how to counterattack Lanfeng, so as to achieve the military purpose of annihilating the Japanese troops and preventing the Japanese brigade from attacking Kaifeng and Zhengzhou along the Longhai Road.

But don't forget that the military command department is not only the war hall (that is, the first hall), it also has the second hall and the third hall!

The division of labor in these departments is very clear—some are responsible for spying on the enemy, some are responsible for the internal affairs of the national army, and they are responsible for finding out which military chiefs of the troops have the intention to surrender to Japan, etc.

However, the Second Office of the Military Command Department of the National Military Commission (responsible for domestic and foreign intelligence matters, especially for the enemy) has begun to investigate the reasons for Lanfeng's fall.

At the same time, Cheng Qian, commander of the First War Zone of the National Military Commission, who was already very angry, also ordered a strict investigation into the cause of Lanfeng's fall after receiving Chiang Kai-shek's instructions.

But what Zhang Tianhai never expected was that the spearhead of losing Lanfeng was directly pointed at him, and Long Muhan who led his troops to withdraw from Lanfeng...

The third update will not be updated until before two o'clock. I will wait for the old man to sort out his thoughts and how to write the next plot.

Thank you book friend Qianqian for the reward of 300 book coins...
